Chapter 75
C75 – Level Five Hacker Skill
Out of nowhere, a pop-up window suddenly commandeered the screens of nearly every computer in Tianhee City, taking over the entire display.
In a college dorm room, Xu Tianqing was deeply engrossed in the latest popular shooter game, “Eating Chicken,” with his headphones on. Just as he was locked in a fierce gunfight, an unexpected pop-up abruptly overshadowed his screen, obstructing his view entirely.
“Oh, damn it! What in the world is this? I’m about to be gunned down here!”
His frustration was pushing him to the brink of despair.
He frantically attempted to locate a way to close the intrusive pop-up, but his efforts were in vain. In his haste, he inadvertently clicked on it, a feeling of helplessness washing over him.
Even if he tried to return to the game now, he knew it was a lost cause.
However, as he perused the content of the pop-up, he became utterly captivated.
After reading it in its entirety, he audibly gasped in shock.
“Shh!”
Followed swiftly by anger.
“Damn it, can you believe there are people like this in Tianhee City? Individuals like them ought to face execution!”
Xu Tianqing’s reaction wasn’t unique; others who had seen the video shared his sentiments.
Numerous individuals at their computers had involuntarily been exposed to the pop-up and its contents, sparking a widespread outpouring of anger.
“Unbelievable, this scoundrel is actually a CEO of a publicly traded company!”
“And a traitor at that! An utter disgrace to our Tianhee City residents!”
“It’s astounding that in a society governed by law, there are still those resorting to hiring contract killers!”
…
Even in Jiang Hao’s internet café, a cacophony of curses filled the air.
Jiang Hao watched the chaos unfolding with a sense of delight.
And thus, the damning evidence spread like wildfire across the internet.
The cyber police swiftly caught wind of the situation but found themselves powerless against the persistent pop-up.
In no time, the police went into high alert mode, diligently verifying the presented evidence.
To their astonishment, they uncovered answers to several long-standing unsolved major cases concealed within this newfound evidence.
Without hesitation, they sprang into action.
…
Meanwhile, in Qin Ming’s office, he remained reclined in his chair, his eyes closed as if in a state of serenity.
Suddenly, his phone erupted with an urgent ringtone.
Jolted from his reverie, Qin Ming furrowed his brow and snatched up the phone from his desk.
An unfamiliar number flashed on the screen, briefly perplexing him, but he answered it nonetheless.
“Hello?”
An agitated voice crackled through the speaker.
“Venom Snake, it’s Owl. Where are you right now?”
“Owl?”
A sense of recognition passed between them. After a brief exchange of words, Qin Ming detected a hint of concern in Owl’s tone and responded promptly.
“I’m in my office. What’s going on?”
“In your office?” Owl’s voice brimmed with disbelief and frustration.
“Why the hell haven’t you gone on the run? Your identity has been compromised! The entire internet is buzzing with news about you!”
“Who in the world have you managed to provoke?”
“Listen, we can’t stay in contact after this. You’re on your own now!”
Owl’s words spilled out rapidly, like a machine gun firing off rounds, and then the line abruptly disconnected.
“Ding ~ Ding ~ Ding ~”
The phone signaled a call termination.
“Piss someone off? I haven’t…”
Baffled, Qin Ming hurriedly powered up his computer. Within moments, his face drained of color.
“This is not good!”
But Qin Ming wasn’t just any corporate executive; he was a seasoned leader. Without a second thought, he dashed out of his office.
