“Anyone else would have porn,” Scott said.
Prin shrugged. “I guess this is Barry’s version.”
“Ewww,” Scott replied. “Let’s hope Barry hasn’t had any secret assignations in here.”
“I wouldn’t think so. He doesn’t seem the type to me.”
Scott clapped him on the shoulder again. Prin tried to ignore the thrill that shot through his system.
“You’d be surprised, Prin, my boy. You have a lot to learn.”
At the back was a desk with monitors on. The CCTV hub.
Prin squeezed through and took the tiny seat.
“If Elliott is fiddling with the CCTV footage, do you he’ll have to come in here to download the recording?” Scott asked. “I never thought of that.”
He closed the door behind them. With the outside world banished, they were cocooned together.
“I don’t think so,” Prin replied. “If he’s using other people’s profiles to hack into the system, he can do it from any data point, providing he’s sorted access beforehand.”
Scott had managed to rearrange some toilet rolls into a seat shape. He tentatively lowered himself down onto it.
“Then why is it good we’re in here?” he said.
“This is the master,” Prin explained. “We’ll get it immediately. I reckon it’d take him half an hour at least to tamper with it. I was going to try and race him to get the raw footage, but this is much better.”
Scott nodded. “So, we can download it without him knowing?”
Prin reached into his pocket and produced an external hard drive that he’d brought from home. He held it up to Scott.
“We’ll be getting it real time.”
“Prin, you’re a bloody genius. I don’t know what that means but it sounds good.”
“Give me a second and I’ll sort it.”
“My hero.”
Prin glanced at an amused Scott.
Is he mocking me?
He opted to ignore it. Instead, he busied himself setting the device up and ensuring that the system would instantly duplicate files on Prin’s cue.
It only took a few minutes. Once he’d finished, he turned to Scott.
“All done?” Scott asked.
Prin nodded. “Now we wait.”
“How long have we been in here?” Scott asked.
“Half an hour,” Prin replied.
Scott sighed. “I’d be useless in prison. This is driving me nuts.”
So far, they had discussed work colleagues, Brighton and sharing a flat with Tyler and Eddie.
