Gu Group Scandal Revealed: The Life Story 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 it calmly in the meeting, he was actually already in a state of panic behind the scenes.
"Haven't we found out who leaked the news yet? 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 simply apologized. "We're so sorry, Mr. Gu. We checked every marketing account and found a fake IP address left by the person who leaked the information to them. When we sent someone to check the IP address, it was instantly destroyed and even infected our devices."
Gu Zhi's chest heaved up and down, he was extremely angry, "I mean it was done by hackers."
"It's very likely, and the hacker is very skilled."
Gu Zhi frowned and took a deep breath. When the scandal broke out, the first person he thought of was Jiang Yuan. However, he had always sent people to monitor Jiang Yuan, and his electronic equipment was also under surveillance. Even if he relied on Shen Shi to escape from Gu's Hospital, it did not mean that he could escape from his control.
Gu Zhi is now monitoring Shen Shi and Jiang Yuan at the same time, but the former is used to relieve 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 prevent him from enjoying the feeling of being loved.
Jiang Yuan would not have the heart to do such a thing if he had no chance. Besides, Gu Zhi knew that Jiang Yuan did not have that ability at all. He was just a top student in the computer department. In terms of money and status, he was still 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 the 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 chest puffed out. He was determined to win this group.
The Qing Dynasty has fallen.
If you don’t know, you might think it’s 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 took Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yuan's family away using Shen Shi's identity, and placed them in Shen's hospital. The two private wards were connected, with Jiang Yuan and the system in the outer room and Jiang Yuan's grandmother and sister in the inner room. Anyone who wanted to treat Jiang Yuan's family had to pass through Jiang Yuan and Shen Shi's place. Several 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 the system's broadcast of Gu Zhi's anxious look when he had nothing to do. But now there is one more person, or rather, one more person.
The system had just finished learning about marketing accounts and, after saying goodnight to its host, the next day it fully felt the power of marketing accounts and began to query "whether the marketing accounts are illegal."
Now they have turned their attention to investigating hackers, and after completing the investigation, they are beginning to worry that a group of humans wearing black police uniforms and carrying black explosion-proof shields will break into the house 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's not against the law."
Jiang Yuanshi looked puzzled, "I didn't break any law?"
The next second, the broadcast screen changed to information about hacker crimes, and the black text on the white screen revealed the system's accusations 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 become a hacker? These are two completely different things."
Seeing that Jiang Yuan was still trying to struggle, the system decisively threw out the evidence.
A circular pattern 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. Lying on the hospital bed, he counted his fingers and said, "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-intuitive, 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 is a crime. I didn't harm the country, I didn't hack into other people's programs, or illegally obtain their information. I was just leaking some facts to the marketing account as an insider. They checked my IP address themselves. If they hadn't checked, wouldn't they have been infected? And I automatically destroyed it."
Jiang Yuanshi's tone was sincere, a little aggrieved, and self-righteous. He looked at the system with his bright eyes, 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 a system intrusion, and this behavior may affect the plot of Gu Zhi becoming the heir."
Jiang Yuanshi was already accustomed to the system's inquiries. "But arresting someone requires evidence. If nothing unexpected happens, there are only two of us who know about this. Mr. System, are you going to report me? Aren't we in this together?"
system:…………
Seeing the system's choked expression, Jiang Yuanshi tilted his head and smiled, "So it's okay then. I just leaked some of Gu Zhi's real information. He also leaked information about Jiang Yuan to others at the banquet. It's a give and take, after all. 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 appointment. After all, he is the only one left after the death of the Gu family heir."
"And..." Jiang Yuanshi began to accuse, "If we really want to talk about breaking the law, it must be Gu Zhi, right? He 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. This is a serious violation of privacy, and there is even a possibility that hospital information will be leaked."
When facing the system's accusations, Jiang Yuanshi always finds a suitable reason to fight back and never holds it back. But for the system, this is considered a response to everything, which is 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 has had to start learning about humans. The host initially judged him as a primitive man with amnesia and untamed limbs. Jiang Yuanshi, as an insider, accepted it well, but other humans could not. 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 under the guidance of the host, he successfully became a human with tamed limbs. But that was all. The system's success in limbs did not mean that he 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, it has a new assessment of Jiang Yuanshi's character - he holds grudges and seeks revenge. 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 reviewing 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 had mentioned this in a casual chat over the past few days. Jiang Yuanshi, upon receiving the evaluation, simply smiled and said, "Mr. System, your judgment of me makes me seem like a successful person who simply died a little too early."
"Except for death, this is the life that many people want."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't really care. He just turned his neck and said casually, "That's fine too. If someone really wants me to give it to 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, "Host, you still don't want to be reborn? Then why are you working so hard to complete the mission?"
Jiang Yuanshi was speechless. "I don't really want to, and your department's rules mean I'll have to die repeatedly if I don't complete my mission. I might as well just work honestly. Didn't you say that if I didn't regenerate, I'd get a chance to make a wish?"
System: "What is your wish?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "I haven't thought about it yet. We'll talk about it when the time comes. Besides, 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 that you have."
The system wanted to refute, but Jiang Yuanshi was telling the truth. He had encountered bugs that were rare or had not appeared in the book patching department for many years.
"Rather than this, Mr. System, I want to ask, is it really true that the probability of Jiang Yuan's family members waking up and recovering is unchangeable?"
In the past few days, the system has been calculating the probability and single-digit possibility at Jiang Yuanshi's request.
Not to mention waking up, according to Jiang Yuanshi's idea, it is almost impossible to restore Jiang Yuan's sister's appearance even if her skin recovers due to burns.
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. What's funny 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 for 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 he 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 sympathy, 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 laughed and said, "What a fucked up world."
