With that in mind, Qiao Yin logged on to a second-hand website, rummaged for a semi-new bicycle, and arranged for it to be delivered to her office the next day.
Then, she immersed herself entirely into the unfinished work from the previous night, continuing her quest for system vulnerabilities.
Meanwhile, Lu Lingche remained working at Shengling Group.
The Vice President of the corporation’s mobile business reported to him with excitement: “President Lu, the smartphone system we’ve developed is extremely stable and safe. Ever since you personally fixed the vulnerability last time, no hacker on Crisis has been able to break into our system! For three months now, no one has claimed our bounty!”
Lu Lingche nodded, “Good. Prepare for a press conference tomorrow, we’ll announce our system.”
The Vice President was filled with overwhelming confidence: “Yes, President Lu! Our new system will certainly stun the world!”
However, there was little change in Lu Lingche’s expression. He looked at the night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and thought to himself: Big brother, the smartphone system you devoted your life to creating is going to be released. I hope this brings you some comfort in heaven.
At nine o’clock the next morning, Shengling Group held a press conference, which was broadcasted live worldwide, announcing the development of a new mobile system — the Tiansheng System.
Dressed in a blackish-blue suit, Lu Lingche personally hosted the conference and demonstrated the system on the spot.
“…The development of the Tiansheng System took ten years. It’s the fruit of my brother Lu Shengqing’s hard work. Today, in his stead, I announce the launch of the Tiansheng System. The Tiansheng System is more secure than any other, dedicated to protecting user privacy, preventing the leak of personal data, and it also …”
Before Lu Lingche could finish his sentence, his phone suddenly froze.
The phone was connected to the large screen, so everyone could see its status.
This sudden incident left everyone somewhat bewildered.

The next second, the phone rebooted automatically in the absence of any command from Lu Lingche. The startup screen was pitch black, then a line of white text appeared: “Hi, everyone!”
Lu Lingche sensed something was awry. He immediately tried to switch off the phone, but it was as useless as punching a brick wall.
The large screen connected to the phone also became uncontrollable.
Lines of text popped up one after another.
“I am Deicide.” (I am Godkiller.)
“Where is my bonus?”
“Contact me please.”
The conference room fell deathly silent.
Meanwhile, the live room was being bombarded with a flurry of comments.
“What’s happening, what’s going on!”
“Shengling Corporation’s system just got hacked! President Lu’s phone is being controlled by someone!”
“Didn’t he just emphasize how high the security of their system was? And now it’s been hacked?”
“Wow, this hacker is quite arrogant! My English isn’t that great, is he asking President Lu for money? Where’s my royal translator?”
“You can’t even recognize these few words? Your English teacher must be rolling in their grave.”
“Oh my God, what a slap in the face, how embarrassing, it’s commendable that President Lu is able to keep a straight face standing up there.”
“Where is his calm face? Didn’t you see, President Lu’s face has turned green?”
“Even if President Lu’s face turned green, he’s still very handsome. He’s the most good-looking man I’ve ever seen! Sob, sob, he looks so pathetic, it breaks my heart.”
“It’s over, it’s over. The Tiansheng System failed upon its debut, let’s see how Shengling Corporation gets out of this!”
“President Lu said this system was developed over ten years, it was his brother’s effort, looks like his brother’s skills aren’t that great after all, having been hacked immediately after being unveiled. Who dares to use this lousy system?”
“Whoever wants to use it can use it, I’m boycotting it for life!”
Lu Lingche gritted his teeth and lifted his head: “Today’s press conference ends here!”
