"Chen Hongxing..." Tang Xili read these three words, her eyes moving.
Because this name is very familiar to her.
The god of IT industry, China's top hacker.
She tried her best but still couldn't make it into the top 10 hackers in the world, barely ranking 15th.
Realizing that IT was not her strong point, Tang Xili did not make things difficult for herself. She had money, so why not recruit people?
At first, she wanted to recruit Shen Hongxing to work for her with an annual salary of 5 billion, but Shen Hongxing did not agree and handed himself over to the country.
She had to settle for the second best and hired the world's third best hackers, Karl and Saint, twin brothers from Germany, to be her network consultants to make up for her shortcomings.
"So he's the one I can't have..."
Tang Xili pulled the curtains and smiled. She hadn't seen him for a few years. He had grown from a stunted bean sprout into a round little potato, but she didn't recognize him.
No wonder it looks familiar.
Tang Xili turned around and walked towards the door.
Her boyfriend is quite capable as he can mobilize warships and national-level hackers.
When she was about to reach the door, she turned around and said to Karl and Sheng En, "I'll leave the monitoring to you. One day and one night, working in shifts. Is that okay?"
Karl and Sheng En nodded, "That's absolutely fine, boss, don't worry."
The two brothers closed their notebooks, followed Tang Xili out of the room, took the elevator, and went to their own room on the 7th floor.
There are one hundred armed soldiers and ten mercenaries patrolling and guarding the 7th floor, which is where they are safest.
After watching them get on the elevator, Tang Xili turned and went to the innermost room on the third floor and opened the door with her key.
The room was simply furnished, dimly lit, and filled with the strong smell of Chinese medicine.
At the innermost desk, sat a black-haired girl in a red sweatshirt.
She was wearing a sweatshirt and her fingers, pale as blood, were typing rapidly on the keyboard.
The light shone on her, and only a slender white chin was visible.
On the computer screen on the table, she made the code into a sky lantern, rising from the lower left side of the screen to the upper right side, rising up and falling down, in an endless cycle.
Tang Xili walked over, put her calloused hands on her shoulders, and asked, "Have you eaten on time during the days I was away?"
The girl raised her hand, her bony hand with clear veins, and placed it on Tang Xili's hand. She coughed weakly twice and said, "Sister, I ate the food and medicine they brought from the secret compartment."
Tang Xili nodded and pulled her hand back, "You saw what happened in my room just now, right?"
"I saw it." The girl glanced at the monitor.
"Can Shen Hongxing's system lock your system?"
The girl's voice was crisp, "I tried it, it locked for three seconds."
"Okay, then let's stick to Plan B. Carl and Sheng En will be in charge of the island's surveillance network, and you'll be in charge of confusing the public. Killing Amy with the hammer will be the undercover's job."
"Okay, sister."
A soft "click" sound came from the fireplace not far away.
Tang Xili, who was about to leave, turned and walked towards the fireplace, opened the small door, and took out a tray from inside.
There were two dishes and a soup on the tray, one meat and one vegetable, as well as a small bowl of rice and a bowl of bird's nest.
Tang Xili brought the food to the small dining table and placed it on her table, "Come and eat."
"Thank you, sister."
——
After leaving Penang Island, Shen Hongxing took a private plane directly back to Kyoto, China.
As soon as he landed, he received a call from Yong Zhixu, so he didn't go back to the unit and went directly to the International Chamber of Commerce Building.
Yong Zhixu went to see Shen Hongxing just to ask about the tracking system.
Shen Hongxing asked and answered questions.
Before he finally left, he hesitated, then spoke out, "Miss Tangxi has a master who's on par with me, and even more skilled than the twin brothers. During the implantation process, I was interrupted three times. My phone prompted that the other party's IP address is in that Moon Palace."
Yong Zhixu was not surprised. "Will your system be cracked by the other party?"
Shen Hongxing was unsure. "It's possible, but I hope not. Vice President, you have to tell Miss Tangxi in person not to crack or copy my code without authorization. Her network will be paralyzed and she will be targeted by the Ministry of National Defense..."
"Okay, thank you, Xiao Shen."
Shen Hongxing saluted and said, "You're welcome. Goodbye."
After everyone left, Yong Zhixu immediately called Tang Xili and conveyed Shen Hongxing's intention to her.
Tang Xili from Penang had just returned from a morning run and was about to shower when she received the call. She guessed what he was worried about and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."
She is not a spy and would not be idle enough to crack or copy Shen Hongxing's system and then be targeted by the Ministry of National Defense.
She was silent for a moment and asked him, "Silly boy, don't give me everything. What if I really..."
"I believe you're not that kind of person." Yong Zhixu interrupted her, "Or rather, I believe in myself, Tang Xili. No matter how foggy your future may be, I will always be with you. Don't worry, Shen Hongxing has a backup plan, and so do I. Neither of us will do anything that will harm our own country."
"Okay." Tang Xili felt that she had underestimated him and actually thought he was a love-brained person.
Just keep it as a backup plan.
If I entrust my whole heart to her now, she will not know what to do.
The two talked for a while before hanging up the phone.
Tang Xili went upstairs to take a shower, change clothes, and have breakfast. Then she brought people to the basement to interrogate Amy.
This basement is not the one where the An family was originally imprisoned.
This room was more tightly guarded, with eighteen kinds of torture instruments hanging on the wall. In the dim light, old bloodstains were reflected. It was unknown when the torture instruments had been used, and the old blood looked eerie and terrifying.
Amy was tied to a cross with a cloth gagged in her mouth.
Seeing Tang Xili coming, her green eyes lit up and she moved a little excitedly, as if she wanted to explain.
Tang Xili grabbed a whip stained with black blood from the wall, stepped on black high heels, and walked up to Amy. She grabbed her jaw, took the cloth out of her mouth, and asked her coldly, "Who is your contact?"
Amy shook her head, "I'm not undercover."
Tang Xili pinched her neck tightly, put her red lips close to her ear, and said a secret code in a barely audible voice that only the two of them knew.
A trace of shock flashed across Amy's eyes, and her emotions surged like a wave, fluctuating violently.
But after only three seconds, she calmed down and responded with silence.
Tang Xili let go of Amy in frustration, smiling instead of angry, "You won't tell me, right? You won't cry until you see the coffin."
She raised the whip and whipped Amy without hesitation.
One, two, three...
"Ouch—" Her skin and flesh were torn apart by the fabric, leaving hideous bloody marks. Amy groaned in pain, sweating profusely.
Xiao Tao and Xiao Jiang, who came with them, felt a little sorry and said, "Ma'am, I think there must be some misunderstanding..."
