"Even you couldn’t catch him?" Fiona Linton asked in surprise.

"No," Daniel Hayes replied with a nod, his expression turning grave. He looked at Chloe Reed and asked, "Chloe, when did you provoke such a formidable person? How come I’ve never heard about this?"

Chloe shook her head, looking completely lost. She let out a helpless, bitter smile. "Can I just say that I have no idea either?"

Someone had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, leaving everyone on edge, yet this person hadn’t actually done anything to hurt her. If her encounters over the last few times were all with the same person, then not only had he never hurt her, but he had even helped her. Chloe felt incredibly conflicted.

Fiona waved her hand dismissively. "Since this guy doesn’t have any malicious intent, don’t overthink it. Maybe he’s just a Good Samaritan who prefers to stay anonymous."

Daniel remained silent. In his eyes, a person like that posed a massive hidden threat if his true identity wasn’t properly investigated. But the current problem was that they couldn’t even track him down, let alone figure out who he was. Suddenly, he slapped his forehead. "I’ll go to the security room and check the surveillance footage!"

"Just make a copy and bring it back so we can watch it together," Chloe suggested. "We might be able to spot something upon closer inspection."

Daniel nodded and left. He quickly returned with a copy of the video and cast it directly onto the television screen for the three of them to watch.

The footage showed Chloe jogging along the small path leading up to the woods. As soon as she turned a corner, a dark figure rushed out and launched a rapid attack against her. At first, she failed to react in time. She quickly tried to fight back but was swiftly subdued.

Watching the scene unfold, Daniel felt his blood boil with excitement. "What clean and decisive moves!"

Fiona couldn’t help but chime in. "Chloe, you know what? You looked like a toddler in front of him. He was just leading you along. Beating you was completely effortless for him!"

Chloe was speechless. She pursed her beautiful red lips, her gaze locked unblinkingly onto the dark figure in the video. He was bundled up tightly, revealing only his eyes. He was tall, about the same build as Walker Grant, and his movements were impeccably sharp. She couldn’t tell what martial arts style or routine he was using.

After watching the clip on loop several times, Fiona leaned back in her seat. "I can’t watch this anymore, my eyes are going blurry. He’s covered up so well that you can’t make out a single thing."

Chloe turned to Daniel. "Daniel, did you notice anything?"

Daniel stroked his chin, feeling his rough stubble. "I actually find his fighting style somewhat familiar. I must have seen it somewhere before..." A puzzled expression appeared on his rugged face, his brows furrowing deeply.

Chloe instantly perked up, looking at him with curiosity and waiting for his answer. However, the realization continued to elude him.

He scratched the back of his head and sighed. "Ugh... Why can’t I remember? Maybe I’ve just been back in the country for too long. Let me go back and think on it. I’ll tell you the moment it comes to me."

A hint of disappointment flickered in Chloe’s eyes before she turned her attention back to the sparring scene in the video.

He had told her she was too slow. Now, she finally understood what he meant. Her reaction time and counterattacks were indeed far too sluggish. She hadn’t really noticed it before, but after scrutinizing the footage time and time again, she was starting to see the intricacies of his technique.

Letting go of her obsession with the man’s identity, Chloe began studying his fighting style and patterns to enhance her own training.
