A thousand-mile dike can be breached by an ant hole.
She never imagined that she was the anthill that was brought to its knees!
Fan Chen met her fierce gaze calmly, looked her in the eye, and said in a flat tone, "Then do you regret it?"
Qiu Shui's heart sank.
"You discovered the data was being stolen, yet you still accepted my surveillance, right?" Fan Chen asked calmly.
Upon hearing his words, Qiu Shui's eyes instantly lost their luster, like a fallen straw.
In fact, she had always known this.
Fan Chen looked at the person opposite her, and at the mechanical, no longer moving semi-circular metal sphere behind her, his eyes like a stagnant pool.
He was monitoring her, that's right.
But he wasn't the one who controlled her.
If he wasn't mistaken, Luo Qiushui first discovered the database theft when she was ganged up on by Xu Zi's supporters.
That was an accident, but in some ways it wasn't an accident at all.
It was his mistake that he didn't adjust the current in time that day, but what happened afterward was beyond his control and imagination.
After a series of violent injuries, Luo Qiushui's brain was subjected to excessive electrical fluctuations in a short period of time, causing stress and resulting in temporary shock.
Ailu College's comprehensive health monitoring system discovered that she had collapsed in her dormitory and immediately sent her to the Ailu College Affiliated Hospital.
During her month-long stay in the hospital, Luo Qiushui sensed something was wrong and adjusted the security settings on her holographic bracelet every day. In the process, she found the surveillance software he had left behind.
According to his anti-tracking system, Luo Qiushui followed the IP address to find Hughes and also found the data and original materials he copied.
After discovering this, she checked the firewalls of her electronic butler and her frequently used smart bracelet, and found that her firewalls had been breached and top-secret information had been leaked.
He was devastated when Luo Qiushui tried to send him a restraint system that was fully installed in his bracelet.
Later, he was forced to shut down the two-way monitoring system and then fell into deep worry and distress.
Luo Qiushui is a White Witch; through her investigation, she must know what those data represent. She even located his location. So, what's next...?
There is no next step.
This surprised him greatly.
One week later
Luo Xiaoyu received no news of the serum information being leaked, and Luo Qiushui did not send anyone to Xiu Si to eliminate him.
Luo Qiushui simply deleted the monitoring system in the holographic world; she changed the parameters in the holographic game to make her and her shikigami more powerful.
After that, she installed a new, more robust firewall on the bracelet, and then her life went on as before.
During that time, she stayed in the hospital to recover, and his surveillance system could easily bypass the hospital's security system to learn about her situation.
"She really won't pursue the matter?"
This idea was beyond his comprehension.
No one would remain calm in such a situation, especially not an ordinary person like her, who knows the seriousness of the matter.
While guessing, he remained terrified, waiting and waiting... until he received a call from Qiu Haitang.
"Hello?"
Is someone calling?
He put on his headphones and carefully intercepted the electrical current in the air to steal information from the bracelet.
Hello, may I ask who you are?
That's Luo Qiushui's voice.
"I'm your friend, ah... I need to introduce myself, I'm... um..."
He's so long-winded!
I never imagined that someone so confident and decisive in a game would be so indecisive in real life.
"Who are you? Is this a spam call?"
Sure enough, she lost her patience.
I am "Thousands of Mountains and Snow".
A steady voice came through the headphones.
"ah?"
There was a long silence in the headphones.
"I didn't expect you to call me. Is there something you need?"
That's Luo Qiushui's voice.
They were very familiar with each other in the game world, and they were indeed quite uninhibited in real life.
"You were injured and haven't been online for many days. Are you feeling better now?"
"I feel much better, thank you for your concern."
"It's alright. Girls do recover more slowly than boys. Get plenty of rest and be careful not to come into contact with electrical appliances that emit radiation."
"I understand. By the way, are you and Tian Ma Xingke feeling better now?"
Tianma Traveler? That black witch?
"We have already met, and of the three of you, you are the most seriously injured."
Well... it wasn't that she was the most seriously injured; actually, it was that he adjusted her record values.
"yes."
Luo Qiushui's helpless voice.
His heart was in his throat.
Fortunately, she didn't continue.
call……
"According to the investigation, this should be attributed to a system malfunction. Are you planning to sue this company?"
ah? !
If we file a lawsuit, we'll be exposed!
"Not for the time being."
This is Luo Qiushui's answer.
Is she planning to resolve this privately? It seems this matter is getting complicated...
"actually……"
Qiu Haitang's voice hesitated.
What do you want to say?
"I'm sorry, I secretly sent someone to investigate you and found that someone has been observing you in Heian-kyo and recording your data."
? ! !
Who is Qiu Haitang?
He held his breath.
The bracelet fell silent again.
"I know, but I'm not planning to deal with it right now, what do you think?"
Um?
Is she really not going to deal with this?
Why not deal with it?
This is also his question.
"I've been very busy lately."
