"Damn, I don't want that kind of thing..."
At the large desk, Xu Shi pressed his temples tightly, trying his best to suppress the wave of dizziness surging through his mind.
Today is his 25th birthday.
Xu Shi's original birthday celebration plan was to first slack off in the office all morning, then randomly find a few subordinates to scold during afternoon tea, and finally have a big impromptu party in the evening.
But now, all of that has fallen through.
Ten minutes earlier, he had awakened his memories of his past life.
I've actually become a transmigrator, inexplicably transported into the harem fantasy novel I stayed up all night reading in my previous life.
He even became the villain in the book who shared the same name as him.
As the youngest president of "Snake Ring," one of the six top conglomerates in "Night City of Sin," and a minor boss in the early to mid-stages of the story... he successfully possesses all the characteristics of a brainless villain.
He's a womanizer, outwardly strong but inwardly weak, morally corrupt... His hobby is bullying his subordinates, his specialty is showering the main characters with all sorts of comfort, and his virtue is that he's unrepentant. If the main character slaps his left cheek today, he'll come up with a clever plan to offer up his right cheek tomorrow.
As for the ending?
Of course, after losing everything and being abandoned by everyone, he was finally shot by the righteous protagonist, which was quite a shocking turn of events.
WDNMD!
The imagined scene floated into my mind, and I felt like I was about to crack open.
Reading is incredibly enjoyable; the various scenes of bravado and face-slapping make me giggle like an idiot all night long.
But upon closer reflection, in this cyberpunk world, with his command of top conglomerates and mastery of core technologies, he is essentially the uncrowned king of the "City of Night Sin."
How could such an existence be so easily crushed by the protagonist's makeshift crew, who were eating hot pot, singing songs, and building a harem?
That's absolutely impossible!
But that's the reality; in fact, according to the plot, the first domino will fall today.
Just then, the communication terminal on the desk rang at an inopportune moment.
"Young Master, something has happened."
A cold female voice came from the other end of the communication line: "Twenty minutes ago, the company's database was hacked by two unknown groups of hackers."
"The technical department is working hard to fix it, but at present we can only roughly confirm that the targets of the attack are all from the fifth district of Sin City. We are still trying to pinpoint the specific addresses."
"As for their purpose... it is still unclear."
Upon hearing the other party's report, Xu Shi immediately came to his senses.
Sure enough, it arrived.
This is the first confrontation between the protagonist Shen He and the villainous young master in the original work.
At this point in time, the resistance organization he leads, "Spark," has already taken shape.
The current hacking is his doing. It may seem chaotic, but it is actually aimed at a crucial supply transport operation that will take place in the "Snake Ring" three days later.
To call it a confrontation would be an understatement, because even knowing that someone was plotting something, this guy was still preoccupied with the impromptu party that night, no, the birthday party, and didn't take the matter to heart at all.
This led to the subsequent tragedy—having learned about the enemy's firepower in advance, "Spark" was able to intercept supplies at a very low cost, greatly enhancing its strength.
As for "Snake Ring," not only did it lose both people and money, but its prestige and reputation also declined significantly among the six major conglomerates.
Thinking of this, Xu Shi took off his gold-rimmed glasses and felt his head throb even more.
It can only be said that Shenhe's rise is inseparable from the arrogance and incompetence of the original owner.
They went their separate ways.
Fortunately, none of this has happened yet, and Xu Shi certainly won't repeat the mistakes of the original owner.
Now the question is how to deliver a devastating blow to "Spark"...
"Prepare the vehicle, and transfer another Type III combat team from the field operations department."
After a moment's hesitation, a sharp glint flashed in Xu Shi's eyes. He put his glasses back on, got up, and walked towards the door.
"I want to go to Sin City myself."
-------------------------------------
Ten minutes later.
The 20-person combat team, divided into two "Snake Ring" armed vehicles, one in front and one behind, protected the bulletproof administrative vehicle in the middle, and sped towards the fifth district of Sin City.
"Young Master, you mean... you want to search the place yourself?"
During the journey, the female driver offered a word of caution, "Excuse me for speaking frankly, but the situation in Sin City is not simple. Bringing only a Type III squad... I'm afraid it will be difficult to manage."
She was the one who had just reported the situation. She had neat chestnut-brown short hair, and her white shirt, short skirt, and black stockings perfectly accentuated her slender figure.
Su Lin, an orphan raised by the Xu family, now works as the Human Resources Director at "Snake Ring".
She can be considered Xu Shi's childhood sweetheart in a certain sense, and she is also one of the few, no, perhaps the only, die-hard fans of this villain in the original work.
Faced with her question, Xu Shi simply shook his head confidently, "You'll know when we get there."
The other party is right. As the lower city of Sin City, its biggest characteristic is chaos and disorder.
The original work did not mention the hacker's exact location, and with such a small number of people, finding him would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Even if they were to be found, they would have a high chance of escaping due to their superior knowledge of the terrain.
So from the very beginning, Xu Shi never intended to do that.
His real target was "another hacker force" besides "Spark".
Gu Yi, one of the female protagonists in the original novel, is a top-notch hacker in the "City of Night Sin".
Although the car accident was just a coincidence, it made Shen He notice her presence.
