Jia Xi leaned on the passenger seat's backrest, gazing through the window at YiXiya's retreating figure, watching her as she walked away.
Only when YiXiya's silhouette had completely vanished did Jia Xi fish out a piece of foil that was wrapped around chewing gum from her pocket, turned around, removed the gum that was stuck above the rearview mirror, and revealed the miniature camera aimed inside the car.
"Camera obstruction has been cleared,"
a faint mechanical female voice sounded within the taxi,
