"Boss, our core data has been leaked!"

The headquarters of Sindorah Corporation was in chaos. No one could have imagined that Sindorah Corporation, a giant in the industry, would have its core secrets exposed on the Internet for all to see.

"Who did it?"

Thomas was completely in a manic state at this time. His most important adopted son had just been kidnapped and disappeared. The kidnappers demanded 10 billion in exchange for his son, a price that no one would consider serious.

At this moment, his own company was attacked and the firewall collapsed in an instant. It was unprecedented. The hacker on the opposite side was simply not on the same level as him. The top-level firewall was as fragile as paper.

What on earth does this hacker want to do?

At this point, he was completely convinced that the kidnappers were in cahoots with the current hacker. After all, the timing was too coincidental. He believed that this was a long-planned attack aimed at pulling him down from the leading position.

But the most unacceptable thing is the feeling of powerlessness in having to accept this reality.

———

“Bang—done!”

After completing the modification of the last piece of data, the two hands clapped together excitedly.

"It's faster than I thought~" Noel, wearing a Hawaiian floral shirt, leaned back in a chair, flexed his fingers, and said to Hongshu who was sitting on his lap in a bossy manner.

"After all, I set up part of the company's security." Hongshu said a little embarrassedly. He was a little worried that he would make Noel's legs numb from sitting. As for invading the Sindor Company, he had no guilt at all under Noel's brainwashing persuasion, and he found out a lot of disgusting "business competition tactics" in it.

The collapse of the Sindorra firewall was completely reasonable. A top hacker and the original designer working together to attack the firewall were able to hold out for several hours, which showed that they were indeed powerful enough to reach their current position.

"The company will probably declare bankruptcy in a few days, and then you can go back to your father..."

"Yeah," Hiroki Sawada nodded sensibly, feeling a little reluctant in his heart. He really liked being with Noel. This relaxed and pleasant feeling and the freedom he had never enjoyed before made him unable to resist being greedy. But he also knew that staying here at this time would cause Noel a lot of trouble (which it actually didn't).

Hongshu pondered the current situation and said:

"But how do I get back to Japan? And I have to explain why I wasn't killed by the kidnappers."

Considering the 10 billion ransom letter sent by Noel, it is obvious that Sindorah's sudden bankruptcy would not allow the kidnappers in the traditional sense to be kind enough to send the person back to Japan unharmed.

"The U.S. government will definitely not release people on its own initiative. It would be best to contact Japanese officials first and let them go first."

Noel was also troubled by this matter. Although he could have given Hongshu a fake identity and sent him back, it would have been troublesome for him to return to his father.

Or could he change his father's identity as well? Noel's thoughts were on the edge of breaking the law... well, he had never been out of it, anyway, all kinds of outlaw thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, until there was a knock on the door of the game room.

“Dongdong——”

Norton, who had been so arrogant just now, suddenly froze in expression and felt terrible.

The voice of Morobushi Kagemitsu came from outside the door again:

"Noel, are you there? I want to ask you something."

[What's going on? Why is Xiao Guang in the game room? He never comes here! ]

Noel maintained a slightly stiff smile on the surface, but he was screaming madly in his heart.

[Is it possible that it's time for dinner?]

Xiao Hei tentatively proposed his idea, but he could not hide his schadenfreude. He felt very happy when he saw Noel's rollover, especially this kind of rollover which did not cause any damage but was very embarrassing.

"Your brother?" Hongshu didn't know the specific situation, he asked in a low voice and noticed Noel's panic.

"Anyway, you can't let him see you!" Noel also lowered his voice. He tiptoed to his feet, gently holding Hongshu and looking around to see if there was any place where he could hide.

"Noel?" Zhu Fujingguang asked doubtfully. He felt that Noel was a little unusual today.

"Xiao Guang, wait a minute, I'm almost done with the game!" Noel made up an excuse in a hurry, completely forgetting that Xiao Guang would never come in if he refused.

With his eyes fixed on his own game cabinet, Noel held Hongshu in one hand and used his other hand to gently open the door. The cabinet was filled to the brim, and it was a bit difficult to squeeze Hongshu in. He needed to clear out the things inside first.

Noel decided to get started, but when he bent down to take out a stack of disks, he felt his knees tremble and thought to himself that something was wrong.

“Pala—Bala—Bala”

A large number of colorful game disks fell madly, forming a sharp contrast with Noel's stiff, still and pale expression.

[My legs are numb——]

Noel accused desperately.

【Hahahahahaha】

Little Hei Si is not stingy with her laughter.

"Bang——"

"Noel, what's wrong with you?"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhu Fu Jingguang looked into the house worriedly. Even though he knew Noel's strength, he couldn't help but be concerned. When he heard the sound, he didn't care about etiquette or distance.

The purple cat's eyes quickly locked onto his child. After a quick look to make sure nothing serious was going on, Morobushi Kagemitsu saw Hiroki Sawada in Noel's arms...

"Uh... hello?"

Hiroki Sawada was the first to react, and greeted him nervously. He knew Noel had a younger brother, but he didn't expect him to be so young. He looked much younger than himself. In the current situation, he seemed to be held by his brother, and he was still hiding his true situation from him...

Thinking of this, Hiroki Sawada froze. The gentle boy couldn't help but think of other people's perspectives, such as "my brother brought other children home to play but kept it a secret from me", and began to feel guilty.

"Are you my brother's friend?" Although Morofushi Jingguang was still shocked that Noel would bring people back, he quickly reacted and changed the address, and simply introduced himself:

"Hello, I'm Hikaru Natsukawa."

Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and looked at the child with kindness. He looked to be less than ten years old, his clothes looked good, and his living environment should be wealthy... He didn't look like the type of person that Noel would take the initiative to contact. But the fact that Noel took the initiative to bring him back definitely meant that it was not as simple as just getting to know him, right?

"This is Hiroki Sawada," Noel finally came to his senses. At this point, he was so ashamed of being caught that he rolled over on the ground. So he just gave up and introduced him, "I just kidnapped him..."

"Tied?" Zhu Fu Jingguang repeated the word and realized that things were not simple.

"Maybe we should go to a restaurant and have dinner and talk?"

So the three of them sat at the dining table and started today's dinner.

None of the three were the kind of people who were determined not to chat while eating, and after Noel's much-embellished explanation, Morobushi Kagemitsu roughly understood the situation.

"So, Hiroki has no place to live now?" He looked at Hiroki Sawada thoughtfully, but he didn't pursue the fact that he and Noel had captured the Sindorra Company overnight. He was definitely not a conservative person. Instead, he praised Noel for the fact that no one died in the kidnapping process.

Hiroki Sawada shyly wanted to get closer to Noel. He felt that this younger brother who looked younger than him had a stronger aura than Noel. It was as if he was being stared at by some powerful creature (guardian). He had no intention of resisting at all.

Noel's brother, so scary...

"After Sindorah goes bankrupt, we can just send him to Japan." Noel said as he picked at the rice he had just served. He felt relieved after his confession and could even have another pot of rice.

"Then where have you been living during this time?" Morofu Jingguang noticed Hongshu's nervousness, and for a moment he wondered if there was something wrong with his expression, as he shouldn't have looked fierce.

"I haven't thought about it yet. I can first... find a hotel to stay in." Hongshu answered immediately, and even almost added the premise of getting a fake identity. He thought that Noel's brother didn't understand these things. Even Noel's words just now were half true and half false. He changed it to help netizens who wanted to commit suicide.

"Why don't you live here?" Zhufu Jingguang looked at Noel, questioning him with his eyes.

He didn't have any other intentions. On the one hand, it was for Hongshu's safety, and on the other hand, this was Noel's first friend.

Noel thought about it carefully and it seemed nothing serious, so he relaxed his guard and agreed.

"Then, next I want to ask, did you take Hongshu away directly from the hotel in the city center?"

Morobushi Kagemitsu announced the start of the next topic and suddenly turned to Noel and asked.

"How do you know?" Noel asked in confusion, as he had not explained it in such detail just now.

"I just saw a video on YouTube, would you like to take a look?"

In the video, a bright color suddenly fell from the upper floor of a tall and luxurious hotel. The blogger who accidentally recorded this scene was excitedly explaining the situation:

"Someone just jumped down, it's true, but there is no body on the ground, the hotel staff admitted it!"

Although the jumper's face could not be seen clearly, the pattern of the brightly colored clothes was exactly the same as the Hawaiian shirt that Noel was wearing now.

"Shouldn't you explain the evacuation route with Hongshu?"

Noel now remembered that when Jingguang knocked on the door, he had mentioned that he wanted to ask him something...

Is it too late to find a crack in the ground to shrink into?

I really regret it now. Who would wear a Hawaiian shirt when being kidnapped?
