Rosalynn closed the safe, deep in thought.
Beauty Apartments was a high-end apartment complex with advanced security, making it improbable
for ordinary thieves to break in.
This meant the intruder was anything but ordinary.
It did not make sense how such a skilled thief would break in just to steal a jade pendant.
After a brief contemplation, Rosalynn composed herself and called Hutton.
“Hutton, I think someone might have broken into my house. Can you help me out?”
With the camera destroyed, she needed Hutton’s expertise to assess if it could be fixed.
Twenty minutes later, Hutton sent her the restored video.
Rosalynn eagerly played the video, revealing a man disguised as a decoration worker with a mask
covering his face. He effortlessly picked the lock and entered her house.

But why would someone like him target her home?
Rosalynn squinted at the screen, deep in thought, when her phone rang.
It was Hutton calling.
“Rosalynn, have you watched the surveillance video?”
“Yes.”
“Why would a thief break into your home? This guy’s skills don’t fit the profile of an ordinary burglar.
What did he steal from your house?” Hutton asked.
Rosalynn replied, “He stole a jade pendant that I have worn since I was a child.”
