And coincidentally, some of Nicole's creditors were stock traders.
They went bankrupt, and suddenly they remembered that they still had outstanding debts!
Knock knock knock!
[Hey Nicole, come out! I know you're in there! Pay up!]
[Damn it, I've broken the lock, how come I still can't open it? Who's blocking the door from behind!]
Billy and Cat stood firmly against the door, not daring to relax for even a moment.
Billy wailed in agony, "Nicole, please think of something!"
Nicole was on the phone when she heard Billy complaining and yelled back, "I'm already thinking of a solution! Billy, you hang in there!"
"And where did Ambiya go?"
"Abby?"
Billy's mind raced, and suddenly a thought struck him: "Oh, I remember now. Ambie said this morning she was going to the store manager's to watch a movie for free."
"Moneying off Phaethon's electricity bill? So thrifty, just like me... Oh dear, what am I thinking?!"
Nicole was getting a little frantic, frantically grabbing at her hair.
The phone slipped from Nicole's hand, and she instinctively grabbed it, only then remembering that she was still on the phone. Her voice trembled with tears as she spoke:
"Ryan! Come back quickly and finish my request! The Rabbit House is almost starving!"
“No!”
Ryan was decisive and refused without hesitation:
"We're working for a rich man now, why should we go back to earn a pittance?"
At the same time, Ryan thought for a moment and recalled, "By the way, did I promise to help you complete the request?"
"...Oh, I remember now, you mentioned that commission that White Heavy Industries commissioned Phaethon, then Phaethon commissioned you, and then you commissioned me, and so on, with multiple subcontracting layers, right?"
(Note 1)
"Should we quit dealing with these middlemen?"
"There's nothing I can do about it, my super hacker!"
Nicole, with snot and tears streaming down her face, tried her best to sound pitiful: "The Rabbit House is really going to be finished! The creditors are already at the door. You won't believe me, just listen."
As soon as she finished speaking, Nicole put down her phone and moved towards the door!
Thump!
[Let go of the door right now, or I'll kick it open and you'll be in big trouble!]
Ryan tilted her head, and the sudden, loud banging on the door almost deafened her.
“You’re trying to murder me!” Ryan yelled.
"If you don't come back, I'm going to be murdered!"
Nicole's voice was trembling with tears; she looked so pitiful.
"Hiss~~"
Ryan patted her ear, then put the phone on her other shoulder and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll try to think of something for you."
"Yay!!!"
Nicole was extremely excited and quickly took out her notebook to write it down.
"Don't you still have a member named Anbi with Fahrenheit? Call the police and arrest Fahrenheit. Then you can get a large bounty."
"Hello..."
"Hello...."
"Nicole, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Nicole was frozen in shock on the other end of the phone.
After a long while, she finally came to her senses, trying hard to suppress her dark emotions, and said patiently, "Rui! En! Don't give me bad advice! We're in a real crisis, I'm already..."
Nicole's tongue flowed like a lotus flower, her little mouth slurring away incessantly as if coated with honey.
"Alright, alright, take a break. I'll seriously try to think of a solution for you."
Ryan pressed her Jingming acupoint, unable to bear Nicole's irritability any longer.
"I remember Phaethon had a super powerful search-based AI, right?"
"right."
"And I also remember that the city's high-level officials would take notes during meetings and then upload them to their local network, right?"
“Yes.” Nicole couldn’t help but wonder, “But why are you bringing this up? Putting aside whether you can even break through their firewall, even if you do, who will you sell the meeting minutes to?”
"Faga, who else could you sell it to?"
Ryan chewed on her bubble gum and said nonchalantly, "Meeting minutes are useless to others. But for Fagar, they're an assassination list."
Those who have been offended, and those who haven't.
It's all in the meeting minutes!
"I love you to death, Ryan!"
On the other end of the phone, Nicole shouted excitedly.
"Don't just talk the talk about loving me; give me something an adult needs..."
Beep~ Beep~
The call was disconnected.
Rui En was in a state of confusion.
ha?
Did you hang up on me?
"Nicole, you're from Rabbit House!"
Ryan roared, her anger rising, and she was about to smash her phone.
Snap!
But before she could throw it away, a cold sensation suddenly came from her wrist, as someone gripped it tightly.
Ryan turned her head.
Ellen appeared behind her at some point and said calmly, "After all, you bought it with your own money. If you're going to be angry, you should wait until you have a chance to smash Nicole's phone later."
Immediately, Eileen released Ryan's hand, then put one hand on her hip and said, "Calm down first, I need to talk to you."
...
[Note 1: White Heavy Industries once commissioned Phaethon to help find someone to crack the prototype's storage unit. Phaethon then asked the Cunning Rabbit House to find someone, and the Cunning Rabbit House contacted Ryan.]
