Chapter 320: Chapter 319: If This Can Be Tolerated, What Cannot?

Yu Suye carefully replayed the moment she had been picking out clothes near the man with long, reddish-brown hair.

"He only brushed against my shoulder and arm a couple of times..."

She said, a little uncertain, "I don’t think there were any other inappropriate movements."

Yan Feifan scoffed lightly. "It’s a bit cramped in here, but there’s still enough room for two people to pick out clothes without bumping into each other."

"He’s a man. He knows it, and he still touched you more than once. It was obviously intentional."

Yan Feifan scanned the area, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

He spotted a security camera not far above them, pointed right at their location.

"Su Ye, the store has cameras. Let’s go check the footage."

Yu Suye agreed. "Okay, let’s check."

"If he’s just a cross-dresser, that’s one thing. But if he’s using it as a chance to take advantage of women, he needs to be arrested."

Through a salesclerk, the two of them found the store’s manager, Mr. Han.

The manager was an elegant woman in her thirties with her hair tied up in a bun.

With a gentle smile, she asked very cordially, "Hello, valued customers. What can I do for you?"

Yan Feifan considered that he had no concrete proof, and since cross-dressing could be considered a private matter, it wouldn’t be right to expose it directly.

He said evasively, "Mr. Han, a moment ago, someone touched my girlfriend inappropriately."

"We’d like to review your security footage to see if the person did it intentionally or if it was an accident."

Mr. Han didn’t seem to doubt Yan Feifan’s story.

After all, with Yu Suye’s stunning looks and figure, it was entirely possible some lecher couldn’t resist the temptation and got bold.

She looked troubled. "Valued customers, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but we have strict rules."

"The surveillance footage can only be reviewed in the presence of police officers, or if a lawyer presents their credentials and the relevant documents."

"If I let you watch the video just like that, I’ll lose my job."

"Please understand my difficult position."

What Mr. Han said was reasonable enough. Just as Yan Feifan was debating whether to call the police, he heard Yu Suye’s cold voice.

"Mr. Han, I was only trying not to escalate things without concrete proof."

"Do you really want me to call the police right now and cause a scene?"

Yu Suye added, with a veiled threat, "Information spreads so fast online these days. All I have to do is shoot a short video and post it..."

"If that were to have a negative impact on your store’s business..." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Leaving the threat hanging like that was enough to rattle Mr. Han.

She said quickly, "Alright, alright, you can see the footage."

"However, I have to state a few conditions first."

Yu Suye gestured with her eyes for her to hurry up and say them.

Mr. Han said after a moment’s thought, "One of my staff will operate the system, and you’ll review the footage in my presence."

Seeing Yu Suye and Yan Feifan nod, she continued, "And you cannot record or copy the surveillance video unless we find conclusive evidence."

Yan Feifan glanced around and saw that the person with the long, reddish-brown hair was still in the store. He urged, "Mr. Han, let’s hurry."

"If your delay lets them get away, you’ll be responsible."

Yan Feifan and Yu Suye followed Mr. Han through a hidden door and an office, arriving at the security room.

Inside, two large monitors displayed split-screen feeds from several security cameras in real time.

A young man in a store uniform sat bolt upright at a desk with a computer, his eyes fixed on the two large screens without blinking.

Yan Feifan glanced at the monitors, pointed to the one on the right, and said, "I want to see the footage from fifteen minutes ago from the camera on the bottom row, second from the left."

The young man looked to Mr. Han for confirmation. After she nodded, his fingers flew across the keyboard.

The feed from the camera Yan Feifan had pointed out was enlarged to fill the entire screen, and the time was rewound by fifteen minutes.

They all stared intently at the screen.

Two minutes later, Yu Suye appeared on camera.

She picked up an item of clothing, held it against herself for a moment, then glanced to her upper right, her lips forming a slight, dissatisfied pout.

A moment later, the person with reddish-brown hair appeared in the frame.

They started by browsing the clothes to Yu Suye’s left, seemed to find nothing suitable, and then moved over to her right.

Shortly after, the person moved to pass by Yu Suye again...

"Stop."

Yan Feifan suddenly called out, telling the young man to pause the video. He then ordered, "Zoom in as much as you can!"

Once the image was magnified to the limits of its clarity, Yan Feifan reached for the desk mouse and used the cursor to draw a circle around a specific spot on the screen.

Yu Suye’s eyes locked onto the circled area, and her face flushed with anger.

A partially concealed cell phone was angled up under her skirt.

Seeing the image, Mr. Han was also furious. She immediately yelled, "Mr. Hu, call the police—dial 110!"

"Quick, check the feeds! Is that person still in the store?"

"Notify mall security!"

After barking out the orders, she turned to Yan Feifan and Yu Suye, filled with righteous indignation. "Don’t you worry, valued customers. We absolutely will not stand by and let something like this happen."

"I can’t believe a woman would be taking upskirt photos."

Yan Feifan snorted coldly. "That’s a man, dressed as a woman."

"A man?"

Mr. Han’s jaw dropped in astonishment.

Fortunately, the person with the long, reddish-brown hair was still lingering in the store, browsing through the racks.

Two or three minutes later, three security guards who had rushed over from the mall "escorted" the person away.

A few minutes after that, two police officers arrived.

Yan Feifan took one look and recognized one of them.

It was He Pengfei, the deputy chief of the Dacheng Street Police Station.

"Mr. Yan, you again!"

"It is, isn’t it," Yan Feifan said, exasperated.

"It’s not like I want this to happen. It just seems that every time, the people around me and I have the bad luck of ending up victims."

He Pengfei chuckled. "Mr. Yan, I wouldn’t say you’re unlucky. It’s the criminals who cross your path who are unlucky."

"I got the gist of the situation on my way over. You have video footage, and if we can find any of the illicit photos on the person’s phone, it’ll be an open-and-shut case."

"I’m going to go in and question them now..."

Yan Feifan opened his mouth as if to stop him, but after a moment’s hesitation, he said nothing.

As she watched He Pengfei enter the mall’s security office, Yu Suye moved a little closer to Yan Feifan.

"Feifan, don’t worry. I was wearing safety shorts, so he couldn’t have gotten a picture of anything."

Hearing this, Yan Feifan breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

A few minutes later, He Pengfei walked out of the office, his face dark as he clutched a cell phone.

Suppressing his rage, he handed the phone to Yan Feifan.

"Mr. Yan, you’re a doctor. Can you take a look and see if there are any signs of assault on the people in these photos?"

Yan Feifan took the phone, puzzled, and began scrolling through the photo album.

The first dozen or so photos were of women, all upskirt shots.

One of them was, of course, of Yu Suye.

He looked closely and confirmed that nothing had been exposed.

But the next photos, one after another, were all of little girls, no older than three to five.

Furthermore, they were either pictures of them squatting to urinate or pictures of them completely naked.

Seeing their innocent smiles in the pictures, Yan Feifan was seized by a towering rage.

If this could be tolerated, what couldn’t be?

Yan Feifan flicked through more than twenty photos of the little girls before his finger suddenly froze.

"Hm?"

"Mr. Yan, did you find something?" He Pengfei asked, his voice tense.

Yan Feifan shook his head. "Not that kind of sign."

"This child’s urinary system... it looks strange. It’s imperative that she be brought to a hospital for a detailed examination."

He looked at the photo again, then urged, "Mr. He, once you identify this child, you must make sure her parents bring her to the hospital for an examination."
