The bad ending of the stand-in novel (Part 8)
[A review of all the CEOs of Gu Group, none of them abdicated safely]
[According to reliable information, the current CEO of Gu Group is in a coma and his descendants have died one after another...]
[Gu Group scandal revealed: The origin of the “illegitimate” heir…]
The board of directors of Gu Group was caught in an endless debate. Although Gu Zhi seemed to be dealing with things calmly in the meeting, he was actually already extremely worried behind the scenes.
"Haven't we found out who leaked the news? Why do I keep you guys? You're a bunch of trash!" Gu Zhi cursed at his subordinates, no longer as polite as usual.
Everyone lowered their heads and just kept apologizing: "We are very sorry, Mr. Gu, we checked the marketing account thoroughly, and the person who leaked the information to them left a fake IP. When we sent someone to check the IP, the IP was destroyed instantly, and even our equipment was infected with a virus."
Gu Zhi's chest rose and fell, and he was very angry. "It means that hackers did it."
"It's very possible, and the hacker is very skilled."
Gu Zhi frowned and took a deep breath. When the scandal first broke out, the first person he thought of was Jiang Yuan, but he had always sent people to monitor Jiang Yuan, and his electronic equipment was also under surveillance. Even if he could get out of Gu's hospital with the help of Shen Shi, it did not mean that he could get out of his control.
Gu Zhi is now monitoring Shen Shi and Jiang Yuan at the same time, but the former is used to ease his longing for him, and the latter is used to prevent him from telling Shen Shi about the substitute agreement and other slanderous words about Gu Zhi. However, judging from the reports in recent days, Jiang Yuan still has feelings for him and is still sending him money.
Although Gu Zhi doesn't like the other person, it doesn't stop him from enjoying the feeling of being loved.
Jiang Yuan wouldn't have the heart to do such a thing if he didn't have the chance. Besides, Gu Zhi knew that Jiang Yuan didn't have that ability at all. He was just a top student in the computer department. In terms of money and status, he was better off.
Gu Zhi: "Keep investigating, and sue those marketing accounts. If you can't catch the hackers, can't you sue them? If this isn't enough, get out of Gu Group."
"Yes! I promise to complete the task and will not let you down."
The subordinates responded in unison. Gu Zhi put his hands behind his back, held his head high and puffed out his chest. He was determined to win this group.
The Qing Dynasty has fallen.
If you don’t know, you might think he is the emperor.
As the system broadcasted this scene, Jiang Yuanshi silently complained.
"..." The system did not respond and just kept broadcasting.
Two days have passed since the news broke, and Jiang Yuan's family is out of danger. The system successfully used Shen Shi's identity to take Jiang Yuan and his family away, and placed them in Shen's hospital. The two private wards were connected, Jiang Yuan and the system were in the outer room, and Jiang Yuan's grandmother and sister were in the inner room. If Jiang Yuan's family wanted to receive treatment, they had to pass through Jiang Yuan and Shen Shi's place. The other burn patients and their families were arranged in private rooms on the side.
Gu Zhi was caught up in the scandal and had no time to care about them. Jiang Yuanshi liked to watch Gu Zhi's anxious look in the system's broadcast when he had nothing to do. But now there is one more person, or rather, one more person.
The system had just learned about marketing accounts and said goodnight to the host. The next day, it felt the power of marketing accounts and began to check whether the marketing accounts were illegal.
Now they have turned their attention to investigating hackers, and after the investigation they are already worried that a group of humans in black police uniforms and black explosion-proof shields will break into the room and arrest the host in the next second.
When Jiang Yuanshi found out, his expression was indescribable. "System, this world is set in China, right? Did you climb over the wall?"
System: ...It seems so.
The system's warning has become a habit, "Host, you said it is not against the law."
Jiang Yuanshi looked puzzled, "I didn't break any law?"
The next second, the broadcast screen was changed to information about hacker crimes, and the black text on the white screen revealed the accusation of the system everywhere.
Jiang Yuanshi: "But that doesn't mean I did it."
System: "You are also from the Computer Science Department."
Jiang Yuanshi was surprised: "Who says that anyone who knows computers can be a hacker? These are two different things."
Seeing that Jiang Yuan was still trying to struggle, the system decisively threw out the evidence.
A circle appeared on the big screen, and a photo of Jiang Yuanshi playing with his mobile phone while in captivity appeared on the big screen. A series of code numbers were very clear to the system that controlled the data. The system recalled the night when its willpower was consumed crazily, and took a screenshot of the time on the mobile phone.
The evidence is conclusive and the criminal is caught red-handed.
Jiang Yuanshi, who was caught, was deflated. He lied on the hospital bed and counted his fingers, "Okay, I did it, but I didn't break the law."
Across a cabinet, Shen Shike, who was sitting on another bed, showed a look of "disbelief".
The system's expression at this moment was self-initiated, just like a parent who quietly watches his child act up and waits to see how he tries to make excuses.
"..." Jiang Yuanshi explained, "First of all, not all hacking behavior is a crime. I did not endanger the country, invade and control other people's programs, or illegally obtain other people's information. I was just an insider who revealed some facts to the marketing account. They checked my IP themselves. If they didn't check, wouldn't they be infected? And I automatically destroyed it."
Jiang Yuanshi's tone was sincere with a bit of grievance and self-righteousness. His bright eyes looked at the system like a small animal, and the system was almost deceived.
Since it could not harm the carrier, the system pinched a hand out of the slime's body in its own consciousness space and slapped itself.
"But host, you shouldn't poison other people's devices. This is considered an intrusion into the system, and this behavior may affect the plot of Gu Zhi becoming the heir."
Jiang Yuanshi was already used to the system's questions. "But we need evidence to arrest someone. If nothing unexpected happens, there will only be two of us who know about this. Mr. System, are you going to report me? Aren't we together?"
system:…………
Seeing the system's choked expression, Jiang Yuanshi tilted his head and smiled, "So it's okay then. I just leaked some real information about Gu Zhi. He also leaked information about Jiang Yuan to other people at the banquet. It's a give and take. Besides, this kind of information will only affect Gu Zhi's mood and make him focus on refuting rumors. It won't affect the speed of his taking office. After all, he is the only one left after the death of the Gu family heir."
"And..." Jiang Yuanshi began to accuse, "If there is really a crime, it should be Gu Zhi, who sent people to monitor and steal Shen Shi's personal belongings, hacked into the Shen family's surveillance and watched Jiang Yuan and Shen Shi at will, which seriously violated privacy. There is even a possibility that hospital information has been leaked."
When facing the system's accusations, Jiang Yuanshi would always find a suitable reason to fight back and would never hold back. But for the system, this was considered a response to everything, which was in line with its requirements for the host. It would be better if the other party didn't do so many strange things.
Since entering Shen Shi's body, the system had to start learning about humans. At first, the host judged him as a primitive man with amnesia and untamed limbs. Jiang Yuanshi, as an insider, accepted it well, but other humans were not happy. The system often received warnings of its own personality collapse under inexplicable circumstances, and the system became a little numb after a slight electric shock for a long time.
However, this violation warning did not meet the system's standards. After studying various books and images and following the host's guidance, he successfully became a human with tamed limbs. But that was all. The system's physical success did not mean that it could understand and express the proper emotions.
At Jiang Yuanshi's suggestion, the system chose to make a facial paralysis that matches the character's setting.
Based on the system's learning of the human system, Ta has a new judgment on Jiang Yuanshi's character - he holds grudges and is vindictive. His well-behaved appearance hides his rebellious nature, and he occasionally has extreme thoughts, such as always wanting to kill Gu Zhi.
Human character is composed of innate characteristics, family education and later experiences, but after systematically looking through Jiang Yuanshi’s resume, the conclusion reached is still the same as before.
Jiang Yuanshi was a genius who had a harmonious family and a smooth life, but died young.
The system once said in a casual chat these days that Jiang Yuanshi, who received the evaluation, just smiled and said, "Mr. System, your judgment of me makes me seem like a successful person who just died a little early."
"Except for death, this is the life that many humans want."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't really care, he just turned his neck and said casually: "That's good too, if someone really wants me to send them."
This was the answer at the time, and then Jiang Yuanshi started talking about other topics.
Now that the system has come to its senses, it still asks the question, "Host, you still don't want to be reborn? Then why are you working so hard to complete the mission?"
Jiang Yuanshi said speechlessly: "I don't really want to, and your department's rules mean that if I don't complete the mission, I will die repeatedly. I might as well just work honestly. Didn't you say that if I didn't reborn, I would get a chance to make a wish?"
System: "What do you wish for?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "I haven't thought about it yet. I'll talk about it when the time comes. And it doesn't mean that I can collect all the willpower points. There are so many bugs in the novice missions, and there may be more in the future. It seems that I have encountered all the new and strange bugs you have."
The system wanted to refute, but Jiang Yuanshi was telling the truth. He encountered all the bugs that were rare or had not appeared in the book patch department for many years.
"Compared to this, Mr. System, I want to ask if the probability of Jiang Yuan's family members waking up and recovering is really unchangeable?"
In the past few days, the system has been calculating the probability and single-digit possibilities at Jiang Yuanshi’s request.
Not to mention waking up, based on Jiang Yuanshi’s idea, it is almost impossible to restore Jiang Yuan’s sister’s burn condition even if her skin recovers.
Jiang Yuan's sister is named Jiang Zhaozhao, with the same surname as her grandmother. She suffered severe burns in the explosion, especially on her face, which was almost unrecognizable. The funny thing is that Jiang Zhaozhao, who was born with a sloping foot, had injuries all over her body except for her deformed left foot.
The system, which is new to humanity, repeatedly tells the host that this world is not real, and the characters are just NPCs in the mission, so please don't get emotional.
Jiang Yuanshi is a host with terrifyingly stable emotions. The system's emotional dashboard has never changed under his rich tone, as if the other party has no heart.
Sometimes the system feels that Jiang Yuanshi is more suitable to be a system than a host.
The system still remembers the host's expression at that time. There was no emotion, no human compassion, and in the end he even laughed out loud. That was the first time the system heard Jiang Yuan swear.
At that time, Jiang Yuanshi smiled and said, "This is a fucked up world."
