Chapter 711 Being Watched
Martin looked ahead thoughtfully and said, "I always feel like something is off, though I can't figure it out."
Patricia frowned.
Not just Martin, even Patricia felt something was off.
However, what exactly was wrong?
Patricia racked her brain trying to figure it out.
Suddenly, it seemed like she thought of something.
She lowered her voice and quietly asked Martin, "Do you remember the man we met in the mental hospital in Country M, who looked exactly like Hunter?"
An image of a face identical to Hunter's unconsciously appeared in Martin's mind.
He said, "I remember!"
Back then, Martin and the others had even mistaken him for Hunter, so they specifically asked Nathan to investigate. The results showed that Hunter had died long ago. After that, a series of events happened, and they never looked into it further.
Patricia voiced her suspicion. "He resembles Hunter as much as Charles resembles Randy."
Martin agreed. "Yes, except for twins, it's impossible for two people to look so alike in this world."
Patricia pondered for a moment, then decisively said, "Let's send someone to that mental hospital to see if that person is still there."
If he was still there, and Hunter was in the Koch family, then it was really possible that the two were twins.
Maybe Martin and the others could find something from this.
Martin thought for a moment, then decisively said, "Hunter is very meticulous. To prevent him from noticing anything, I'll have Ryan go personally."
Ryan was an outsider and was currently in Country Z.
If he went there, Hunter wouldn't find out.
Moreover, Ryan was very capable and efficient.
So far, the the most capable person whom Martin trusted the most was Ryan.
Patricia nodded. "Yes, have him go quickly!"
Martin smiled and ruffled Patricia's hair. "Alright! I'll call him right now!"
Just as Martin was about to call Ryan, Patricia suddenly pressed his hand down.
Martin looked at Patricia in surprise.
Patricia subtly signaled him with her eyes, then took out her phone and sent a message to Charles.
Patricia: [Charles, can you check if there are any listening devices installed on your dad's and my phones?]
Patricia wasn't being paranoid.
She was scared.
For such a long time, Hunter had been like a shadow, following them everywhere.
Hunter could even install surveillance in the Prime Minister's house; it was terrifying.
Even Joe's house wasn't spared, let alone the Koch family.
Seeing the message Patricia edited, Martin instantly understood.
Charles replied almost immediately.
Charles: [Give me a few minutes.]
Patricia and Martin waited patiently for a few minutes.
After a while, Charles called directly, "Dad, Mom, aren't you at Grandpa's house? Why are your phones bugged?"
Patricia and Martin were both shocked.
"What did you say? Our phones are bugged?"
Charles said, "Yes, it's been a few days! What have you been doing lately? Why would someone bug your phones? Who did it?"
That wasn't the important part, but something else.
"Damn, didn't they hear everything I just said to your dad?" Patricia asked.
Charles frowned. "Is it important?"
Patricia quickly replied, "Yes, it's very important, extremely important! Can you intercept it?"
Charles shook his head. "I need to check! If it's a recording, I can delete it without anyone knowing. But if they've already heard it, then there's nothing I can do."
Patricia hurriedly said, "Okay, please check it quickly!"
After ending the call, Patricia anxiously paced back and forth in the room, looking around.
If the phones were bugged, what about the room?
Could there be cameras installed as well?
Damn it.
They hadn't noticed a thing.
Wasn't Hunter already powerless and captured?
How could Hunter have the capability to do these things?
After a few minutes, Charles called back.
Patricia answered immediately, "How is it? Did you intercept it?"
Charles sighed in relief. "It's done. I've deleted the recording without anyone knowing! It was set to record, so they shouldn't have been monitoring you in real-time."
Hearing this, Patricia also sighed in relief.
"Thank goodness!"
Then, remembering something, she asked, "Do you have any way to check if our room has been bugged with surveillance?"
Charles, being so smart, had already sensed something was wrong and worriedly asked, "Mom, what exactly is going on? Aren't you at Grandpa's house? Why are there bugs and surveillance?"
Patricia sighed. "It's complicated and hard to explain in a short time! Just tell me, is there a way to check for surveillance?"
Nowadays, there were micro surveillance devices.
Even if Martin and the others stayed up all night, they might not find them.
It would be best if there were another way.
Charles said, "Yes! I'll send you a link shortly. Follow the instructions to install the app, then open it! If there are surveillance devices in the room, a small red dot will appear, and you can follow it to find the devices."
Patricia said, "Alright! I'll give it a try!"
Before hanging up, Charles stopped Patricia and reminded her. "Mom, this person is very skilled, able to bug your and Dad's phones without you knowing. You and Dad must be careful. Contact me anytime if you need help."
Still worried, he added, "How about I come over? With me there, no one can monitor you."
Patricia didn't want Charles to come over.
It was very dangerous here right now.
No matter how smart Charles was, he was still just a child.
Moreover, the enemy's identity remained unknown.
No one knew what might happen.
Patricia couldn't let Charles take the risk.
She comforted, "Charles, we have Riley and Sebastian here, and I've also found my biological father! He's the leader of the Taylor family in Country D. They are all very capable people. We'll be fine!"
Charles was still worried. "Really?"
Patricia smiled. "Of course, it's true."
Charles said, "Alright, then contact me anytime if you need anything! We're all waiting for you to come back! Take care of yourselves."
Patricia nodded firmly. "We will! You also take good care of Declan and Maria."
Time was tight, and although Patricia missed Charles and the others dearly and had many things to say, it was not appropriate to talk about it now.
After reminding them to take care of themselves, they reluctantly ended the call.
Soon, Charles sent a link, and Patricia followed the instructions in the link to install the app.
As soon as she opened the app, a small red dot immediately started flashing frantically on the screen.
