Chapter 78 - 78 The Internet Cafe We’re Covering Ran into Trouble



In a studio, Angelina stretched lazily, her graceful curves unmistakable beneath her black coat, resembling an expressive Chinese painting of mountains and rivers—peaks soaring high and at times overlooking a willow-like river that flowed into the plains.

Hackers are creatures of the night.

Angelina was no exception. She held a newly poured whisky, sipping it like water to wake herself up.

Then she continued to tinker with her undertaking.

Suddenly!

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, her snow-white neck leaning forward as she stared at the special feedback on her computer screen.

“Is someone tracking me?”

Angelina immediately became alert, slender fingers already on the keyboard, ready to launch a counter-tracking measure and start hiding her traces in the virtual network.

Typical hackers begin by learning how to penetrate others’ systems, collecting various exploits, backdoors, trojans, and while improving their skills, must constantly invade other networks for hands-on experience.

This is the offensive means of hackers.

And counter-tracking is the self-defense technique for hackers.

It involves cleaning up intrusion traces by using data encryption, log cleaning, Sniffer, hopping, fortification hosts, and so on, often employed to escape the cyber police’s pursuit.

As a top-tier hacker, Angelina’s counter-tracking skills were formidable.

Not only that, she also wanted to investigate who was tracking her.

This was no challenge for Angelina.

After a while.

Her fingers interlaced, rubbing her somewhat sore fingers, a smile appeared on her face, “Because I pushed the idol’s autobiography, the cyber police over there are investigating me.”

Muttering to herself, Angelina had already completed the counter-tracking and eliminated her intrusion traces.

However, she didn’t stop working but instead thought of her chat with her idol.

“Will this affect the idol?”

“I’m really silly, really, just thinking about pushing his autobiography without considering the trouble it might cause him. The cyber police over there must already suspect the idol.”

“No, I must clear my idol of suspicion.”

“Hmm, according to the cyber police logic, the idol is the beneficiary of this ‘intrusion-push’ operation, so they believe he is a suspect.”

“Then, just increase the number of beneficiaries.”

“Hehehe…”

Angelina stroked the hair by her ear, her mind already formulating a plan.

She quickly selected several novels.

Crazy Keyboard (by Formula)

I Have a Supercomputer (by Formula)

The World Under My Fingertips (by Interceptor)

The next day.

The morning sun, filtering through the dawn clouds, fell upon the trees lining the street outside the police station, the breeze fluttering, sunlight playing within the shade.

Xia Qingqing, dressed in dark navy blue police uniform, walked through the shade into the police station and sat down at her desk, turning on the computer, ready to continue the investigation.

At that moment.

A male cyber police officer around 180 cm tall approached, with a square face and severe bags under his eyes.

It was Feng Jun.

“Old Feng, what’s with that look?” Xia Qingqing asked, somewhat surprised.

Feng Jun rubbed his eyes and yawned, “Last night, a group of people received a foreign rogue program intrusion, just like before, it’s recommending novels.”

“Huh?”

Xia Qingqing frowned unconsciously, “Which novels are recommended this time, still Lin Chuan’s?”

Feng Jun shook his head, “This time it pushed Crazy Keyboard, I Have a Supercomputer, The World Under My Fingertips, the first two by Formula, and the last one is by Interceptor.”

“Formula… isn’t he the Jintang Cyber Security Technical Director who’s collaborating with our police force?” Xia Qingqing pondered briefly before asking.

“Yes.”

Feng Jun nodded.

“Did you find any clues?” Xia Qingqing asked.

“None,” Feng Jun let out a light sigh, “That’s right, I checked all night, and didn’t find any clues, just like when ‘Hacker Kingdom’ was pushed before, all traces had disappeared. How’s the surveillance on Lin Chuan going on your end?”

“Nothing out of the ordinary.”

Xia Qingqing shook her head.

At this moment, the Cyber Security team leader Yu Shan briskly walked in: “You can’t find any clues in this case, set it aside for now, we have a more urgent task at hand.”

Yu Shan spoke swiftly, his expression quite grave.

Xia Qingqing’s expression tightened: “Captain Yu, what’s the task?”

Yu Shan said seriously: “Emergency situation. Linwu City has suffered a large-scale DDOS distributed denial of service attack from foreign hackers. At present, a large number of servers are paralyzed, and a massive amount of computers have been infected with viruses, making the network inaccessible.”

The faces of Xia Qingqing and Feng Jun immediately turned somber.

Linwu City, a large city within Han River Province, is booming with the development of its technology industry.

But now, with the massive attack by foreign hackers, it was hard to defend against, and the loss incurred was immeasurable.

“Captain Yu, how’s the situation in our city?” Xia Qingqing asked.

Yu Shan sighed: “The situation in our city is not optimistic. Last night, five internet cafes and three companies were attacked by foreign hackers.”

Feng Jun, no longer feeling tired, frowned and asked: “Captain Yu, has the Jintang Cyber Security firewall upgrade been effective?”

Yu Shan shook his head, his brows furrowed with worry: “The Jintang firewall has been upgraded, and it has been somewhat effective, but the pressure it faces is tremendous. What if it can’t hold up? We are severely short on manpower, in desperate need of high-end computer technology talents!”

Just as he had finished speaking.

Xia Qingqing’s computer network suddenly experienced fluctuations, and a stream of emails popped up.

Email attacks!

Happiness Community, rental housing.

The gentle morning sun arrived as scheduled, and Lin Chuan woke up to Youyou’s punctual ‘wake-up service’.

Upon waking up.

The system’s voice rang out—

[Host, you have gained the ability: business negotiation skills.]

[Additionally, based on your ‘salesman career life’ experience, the novel ‘All-In’ has been automatically generated.]

[‘All-In’ has a total of 800,000 words.]

[It has been exported to your computer, please check.]

[‘All-In’ requires reaching 10,000 Popularity Value (Average Subscription) in order to unlock the next career life experience.]

[Good luck!]

“Ten thousand Average Subscriptions, system, you really dare to dream big.”

Lin Chuan smiled helplessly.

‘Hacker Kingdom’ was still at the level of a 6,000 Average Subscription masterpiece, and now ‘All-In’ directly required 10,000 for achievement.

The next piece would probably need 20,000 Average Subscriptions.

The difficulty was escalating.

Lin Chuan scratched his head and muttered, “The profession I experienced in ‘All-In’ was that of a Fraud Salesman, can I participate in that ‘anti-fraud essay contest’ with it?”

“I should ask Youyou, if I can participate, getting good results would mean a lot of exposure.”

Bang bang bang!

Just as Lin Chuan was about to send a message to Youyou, abrupt knocking sounds at the steel door of the rental came.

“Who is it?”

Lin Chuan called out.

“Master, it’s me!” The voice of Little Landlady came from outside the door.

Lin Chuan’s eyes widened as he quickly went to open the steel door, “Little Landlady, ran out of videos to watch again?”

Zhang Xinxin, however, frowned, “Master, the internet cafe we cover has had an incident!”
