I Became the Protagonist of a Crime Novel Chapter 4

Step three: establish a surveillance system.

Only by monitoring the opponent's movements at all times could I maintain complete control.

I bought twelve cameras online from twelve different shops—two for the front door and two for each room.

After all, I couldn't be sure whether the killer might tamper with my cameras.

To avoid complications, after watching the delivery person leave through the peephole, I spent an hour installing all the surveillance equipment myself. Of course, each camera was installed in an extremely concealed location that only I knew.

The video from each room was connected to my tablet, ensuring there were no more blind spots inside or outside the house.

All this seemed safe, but it still wasn't nearly enough.

Step four: ensure sufficient supplies and strengthen combat equipment.

I had to prepare for a prolonged battle.

I bought three large freezers in one go, filled with eggs, vegetables, various raw and cooked meats, flour, rice, bottled water, as well as medical supplies, tissues, and other daily necessities—enough for a year.

Of course, I also bought various sickles, machetes, boning knives, hammers, iron rods, and nylon rope to increase my combat capability.

If the killer really got right in front of me, I wouldn't just sit there waiting to die.

If the system hadn't reminded me to respect local laws, I could have gotten my hands on a gun too.

I also acquired wigs, fake beards, and disguise clothing. If I had a chance to escape, hiding my identity would be essential.

To prevent him from cutting off my electricity, internet, or communications, I installed five sets of solar generators at home and bought five satellite phones and ten solar batteries.

When the killer got tired of trying, I could call the police anytime to have him arrested and enjoy the perfect ending.

Don't think I'm paranoid. I'm in the light while the enemy is in the dark. I can't afford to be even slightly lucky. I must eliminate all possibilities.
