One girl.
One man.
An entire mystery.
What happens in the end?

President Mathew entered his office and fell in his chair. He looked tired and ill. It had proven to be a long, hectic, and painful day. He was completely drained out of his physical as well as emotional strength. He rubbed his face with his hands in an attempt to get a bit fresh. 
Mathew glanced at family photo on the table and something pinched at his heart. He started feeling suffocated and vulnerable. He loosened his tie knot and took a deep breath. Tiny sweat drops appeared on his forehead and his eyes turned red. He almost fell on the table. He inhaled and exhaled and inhaled and so on. He took deep breaths until he started feeling a little better.
"Ring. Ring." The phone rang.
Mathew sat up, took another deep breath and accepted the call.
"Hello?"
He listened to other side.
"Okay. Arrange it…" He looked at his wristwatch. "at 8:30 PM."
"Yes. I am busy. I need half an hour." He lied. He did not want to tell them about his condition.
He put the phone down and reached inner pocket of his coat. He was looking for his handkerchief to wipe his forehead off; It wasn't there.
He checked his other pocket but in vain. 
"Did I lose it?" He murmured. He looked in the outer pocket of his coat; handkerchief was not there but he found a pen drive.
He was surprised.
"Not mine." He sighed as he examined his discovery.
"How did it get here? Am I losing memory, now?" He looked puzzled. He seemed to have forgotten his pain and handkerchief as well.
He pondered as he put it on the table.
"Oh… That's it. It must be him." He jumped like a beam of lightning struck him. 
He remembered the incident with that disabled man.
"He was the only one who got close enough to put this in my pocket." He thought. 
He had picked the drive again. He was now closely inspecting it for any names or identification marks, but nothing.
As per protocol he was required to hand it over to the IT office at white house for inspection. It could contain some spyware, viruses or other malicious software threatening National secrets and security. 
But considering the way this was delivered to him, it seemed like it was meant especially for him. He was very curious and did not want to hand it over to the authorities without examining its contents.
He sat confused for a while and finally gave in to his curiosity.
"I will give it to them as soon as I know what's inside." He thought and put the drive in the port of his laptop.
"Drive is connected." A message appeared on screen with a ping.
"Open in folder." He commanded.
The folder appeared on screen. There were two folders in it, one was named "A_GRAB" and other was named "Connector". 
He clicked on "A_GRAB" and a password prompt screen opened. He did not want to be listened, so he stopped giving vocal orders and started operating laptop manually.
He crossed the screen closed and opened other folder.
There was a .exe file in it. He double clicked on it.
A dark black window opened. There was nothing else in it. The opened window had no options for him to go further.
"What a waste." President Mathew exhaled and closed the window. He looked a bit disappointed.
"Well. IT, it is…" He rolled his eyes and was about to unplug the USB when he heard a ping.
He got a little startled.
A notification icon had appeared on the Connecter.exe file that he had just closed.
He opened the program again. His heart was pounding with anticipation.
"Hello! Who is it?" This time there was a message.
"Who are you and how did you put this USB in my pocket." Mathew did not want to risk his position.
"Who is it?" The person on the other side completely ignored him.
"You should introduce yourself first. It is basic courtesy." Mathew was a bit annoyed.
"Who is it? It's last time." 
"What the hell do you mean with last chance? Who do you think I am?" Mathew wrote and was about to press send but then he paused a little.
Sending this message would mean he might never be able to know who it was and what was their purpose. He did not think that the person on the other side was bluffing. 
"They had reached such lengths to deliver this drive to me; they must have something important to convey." He thought.
He stared at the screen for a while and pondered about what should he do.
Finally, he succumbed to his curiosity again and erased his message.
"Mathew here." His hands shook as he typed in new message.
"Please come on video chat." Message appeared and soon after a message popped up to get the permission to use the built-in webcam.
Mathew thought a little.
"What the hell." He exhaled and pressed "OK".
"Hello Mr. Mr. Mathew J. Johnson. This is Alpha." A message appeared after a few moments.
President Mathew's screen still remained dark. It seemed like only he turned his webcam on.
"Hello Alpha. Turn on your webcam!" Mathew looked anxious.
"Sorry. The version you have, does not support video."
"What? You cheat. I am going to report this to…" 
"Ping." Mathew was startled as he was typing in his message.
"Boss sent us. We are here for the delivery. Are you interested?" The new message said.
"Finally." Mathew smiled. His eyes sparkled in a very strange way.
"Yes." He replaced his older message.
"Good. Then first, open the A_GRAB folder and put in your first name as password. M Capital."
"Of course." Mathew exhaled, opened the folder, and entered the password.
Folder had only one .exe file.
"Now open the .exe file and wait." As soon as Mathew opened the folder, a new message appeared. It looked like the person on other side could look at his screen.
Mathew followed instructions. The program opened and a notification popped up.
"You do not have permission to install this software. Please contact administrator."
The notification disappeared a few moments later and a warning message appeared.
��The program you are trying to install contains spyware. Do you still want to continue?"
The warning message disappeared after a few moments. Mathew sat patiently. There was a pin drop silence in the room.
It took a few minutes for the program to install.
"The program has installed. When do you think, you will be free and able to leave the White House?" The message appeared.
"I have a few meetings. I will be free by 11:00 PM. But how can I leave White House. It will raise suspicion." Mathew was baffled.
"See you at 11:00. Make sure that your computer stays on; DO NOT shut down your computer." A message appeared. Alpha had ignored him again.
Mathew was now pissed. He leaned in to type his response; his office phone rang.
He looked at his wristwatch; it was 8:25.
"Ugh. Already?" He frowned.

The earth has been destroyed and Mankind is looking for new place to live.

After successfully invading Chen Ming's computer, Shi Lei kept his cool. After all, Chen Ming was using the Internet to chat. If he randomly made any changes and got found out, that would be bad!

Although he had invaded, what if the foe shut down the computer?

Or even unplug the power cable?

Shi Lei only browsed freely through the computer files, trying to get his hand on some secrets.

Too bad, that bastard Chen Ming's computer was actually very clean!

Not even one secret!

No private diary or any Wo Sang Empire's porn film.

Shi Lei who was helpless at the moment could only check the hardware department.

"Damn!"

Shi Lei cursed. Chen Ming's computer is yet another beast. Compared to those two computers undergoing repair at Sun Feng's place, they were about the same.

Besides a lower number in hard disk space, the others were exactly similar.

"This bitch's computer is not bad!"

Shi Lei continued to investigate and found out that the computer was installed with webcam, microphone and speaker!

Looking at the date, out of nowhere, a sinister plan was born within Shi Lei's mind.

First, Shi Lei returned back to the server and began searching military training information.

As the result of having super authority account, he no longer had to sneak around to do his things. In just a few moment, Shi Lei managed to find all the information of military training.

Opening the instructor list as well as contact details, Shi Lei had a glance and quickly made a copy into his local computer.

Shi Lei cleared the server log, eliminating all traces of his operation before getting back to his own computer.

Under Linux system, Shi Lei began to write code.

While typing the code, Shi Lei didn't forget to continue monitoring Chen Ming's situation.

Chen Ming had ended the chat and was watching anime.

Shi Lei laughed out loud. Controlling the campus server, Shi Lei started to temper Chen Ming's room broadband by temporarily allocating a larger bandwidth. From Internet, Shi Lei downloaded several interesting porn films from Wosang Nation. Then, he controlled Chen Ming's computer to download them.

Storing them in a folder, Shi Lei hid it from Chen Ming.

The temporary increase of bandwidth didn't affect the streaming experience of anime. Not aware of anything, Chen Ming had been tricked by Shi Lei to download those porn films.

Shi Lei continued typing the code as he monitored the download progress.

Half an hour later, Shi Lei had completely edit the code. After testing it a few times and ensuring the software could run well, Shi Lei once again logged into the campus server. Through the server, Shi Lei invaded the school mobile service base station.

These self-made little tools, Shi Lei uploaded them to the server and ran them.

This is a software which functions by detecting the signal from base station and determine the position of the mobile phone by triangular positioning calculation.

This software, Shi Lei named it: Exploration.

Shi Lei first entered his own mobile phone number. Software Exploration began to calculate Shi Lei's location.

When the calculation was completed, combined with GPS data, when compared with Shi Lei's actual position, they were roughly the same.

After being confident with the software's functionality, Shi Lei then entered military training company leader's phone number into the software.

In about half a minute, Shi Lei found out that this company leader was actually not at Shuangqing University!

But in Beijiang District!

Since today was the last day of military training and it must have ended already, the school leaders most probably brought the company leader out for visit!

"Heaven has helped me!"

Shi Lei screamed out in happiness.

He then found out Instructor Zhao, the leader of Class 2 of batch '06 Department of business management, Mu Shuang's class instructor. Shi Lei grinned evilly.

Last time at the military ground, this Instructor Zhao had won Shi Lei once. How could he forget about it?

Typing Instructor Zhao's phone number, the software searched for his position.

Again, in half a minute, Instructor Zhao's position was determined. He was still in Shuangqing University!

Shi Lei waved both his hands, his mouth once again widely grinned.

First, he closed the software and then uploaded a different small software.

This software can change the number of caller ID!

For example, Shi Lei's phone number can be changed into military commander's phone number!

From the server, Shi Lei directly activated the caller ID changer software and then stole a phone number from Internet. Through the software, he linked this stolen number into company commander's one.

"Zhao Wu, at 8pm, inspect 6th dormitory, room 302!"

Instructor Zhao received the message, he was shocked!

After all, military training had already ended.

They as soldiers would have to return tomorrow morning. Why there is still any need to do inspection!

Instructor Zhao immediately called company commander.

But just as the signal reached the mobile service base station, it was Shi Lei's software which intercepted and played the busy message.

Shi Lei quickly sent a text message.

"Inconvenient to answer the phone, only via SMS!"

Zhao Wu felt something was not right. After repeatedly checking the phone number of the company commander several times, then only did he replied the message.

"Company commander, is it still necessary to do spot check on the room?"

Shi Lei laughed sinisterly, if not doing spot check, how could interesting thing happen!

"Zhao Wu, when I ask you to go check, just do it! Stop asking any nonsense question!"

Zhao Wu scratched his head. No matter what, he had to obey the order from higher up since he is in military.

"Yes, company commander!"

7.30 pm, Zhao Wu together with another soldier, also following them was Zhan Song, lecturer from Department of Computer Science, were headed to 6th dormitory.

Zhan Song asked with a hint of surprise in his tone, "Zhan Song, I thought military training is already over. Why still conduct spot check?"

Zhao Wu himself was clueless too. Yet, with a straight face he answered: "The end of military training is exactly at midnight!"

"Hehe!" Zhan Song laughed as he led the way in front.

Controlling the computer of Chen Ming, Shi Lei noticed that a few porn films had already been finished downloaded. Instantly through the campus public server, Chen Ming's internet bandwidth was adjusted back to normal.

After doing these, Shi Lei quietly did his thing and secretly opened the microphone, linking it to his own computer.

At about 7.50 pm, a series of door knocking sound could be heard.

Shi Lei was extremely excited and eager for the next scene.

"Good show is about to start!"

Chen Ming's voice could be heard through the microphone.

"Who is it?"

Outside the door, Zhao Wu said: "Room inspection!"

Chen Ming was caught in surprise.

Isn't military training already over?

Why would there be room inspection?!

But he couldn't refuse to open the door.

Chen Ming was not bothered to shut down his computer. Instead, he made a quick tidy up on his bed. His three other roommates were also busy sorting out their beds.

"Still not gonna open the door?"

Zhao Wu's voice travelled into the room. Through the microphone, his voice came out from Shi Lei's headphones.

Chen Ming quickly replied: "I'm coming!"

Once Shi Lei heard that, his fingers were dancing on the keyboard, remotely activating Chen Ming's webcam.

Webcam in year 2006, doesn't have its own LED light. Shi Lei wasn't worried at all of being noticed as he activated the webcam.

Through the webcam, Shi Lei watched Chen Ming opened his room's door.

Shi Lei remotely added Wo Sang Empire's porn films into the media player's playlist.

Zhao Wu, Zhan Song and Zhao Wu's comrade, three of them entered Unit 302.

Chen Ming was acting cool, "Greeting instructors! Teacher!"

Zhao Wu had a glance at Chen Ming and then said: "Today is the last day for room inspection. You guys are all in the room, I am pleased!"

Chen Ming secretly felt relieved. Luckily, he didn't slip off somewhere to enjoy. If he was to get caught, won't that be miserable?

"Reporting to instructor! Strictly speaking, military training time should have ended this evening!"

A trace of smile appeared in Zhao Wu's face.

The following statement was the same excuse he gave to Zhan Song.

Hearing the argument of Chen Ming, Shi Lei smiled with an evil grin.

"This guy seems capable of acting fast!"

"But, lets see how are you gonna cover up next!"

Shi Lei remotely controlled Chen Ming's computer, played the porn film and minimized the video player. He then completed the final step by maximizing the volume.

In Unit 302, out of nowhere, a burst of classic sound of 'yi yi ar ar oh~' as well as 'yamete', 'yiku' etc could be heard.

Chen Ming's face changed. He had a look at his computer.

His three other roommates all looked down with red faces.

Zhan Song faintly smiled at Chen Ming. As for Zhao Wu, he was frowning.

"This is?"

Chen Ming quickly shook his head, "I myself also don't know what is happening!"

"Maybe it's some Internet ads!"

Listening to Chen Ming's explanation, Shi Lei directly maximized the video player. All kind of love action was shown clearly on the 19 inch monitor!

That white, plump flesh hitting each other!

The voice which could tempt any man kept echoing within the room.

With a pale face, Chen Ming quickly grabbed his mouse and wanted to close the video player.

However, the mouse seemed to have fail him big time. It didn't respond to his action at all!

"Yamete~~~"

"Yiku! Yiku!"

On the screen, the man in action was going for his last sprint!

At this moment, Chen Ming felt like digging a hole in the ground to hide himself.

Zhao Wu coldly said with a stern voice, "Faster close it!"

"Report to instructor, the mouse is not working!"

Chen Ming felt that he was dreaming now. His mouse was not moving at all yet he didn't think off just unplugging his computer.

It was Zhang Song noticing the webcam and microphone, linking them to the currently playing Wo Sang Empire's porn film. A thoughtful look was revealed on his facial expression.

Zhao Wu's face turned black, "Close you damn computer now!"

Hearing this sentence, Shi Lei laughed out loud while hitting the 'Enter' key.

In Unit 302, Chen Ming who hadn't make a move to close his computer and yet his monitor suddenly turned black as the hard disk spinned heavily.

As Chen Ming was about to unplug his computer, Zhan Song stopped him, "Halt!"

"If you don't want your computer to be damaged, don't turn it off!"

"The hard disk is undergoing low level formatting. If you force shutdown it, the hard disk will be destroyed!"

However, even by not shutting down, the hard disk itself was already almost ruined!

Low-level format would destroy all the data in the disk and there was also possibility of some damage on the disk itself!

Such operation would usually be performed on the hard disk before out from factory. Only manufacturers would do this kind of operation, ordinary consumer almost never used such operation.

With this low-level formatting, Shi Lei destroyed every evidence of his invasion completely!

The world’s top-level hacker, Shi Lei; due to him hacking the world’s top military powers during a joint exercise and attempting to steal information from them, ultimately leads him to get sold out by his own organization. This act eventually caused his own death by a missile bombardment.

God was playing a joke on him and allowed him to return back to six years ago, the autumn season of when he was still at his university. Being given another chance, plus the fact that he retained his ability as one of the best in hacking technology, Shi Lei decided to change his life! During his previous life, he was only an assassin in the dark. Although such an existence made people afraid of him, he would have to always hide within the shadows. In his new life, not only does he want to be an assassin in the dark, but he also wants to stand openly in the middle of the world stage. Creating a world-class super enterprise, he will single handy change the whole world!

Updates: 2-3 chapter/week

Huo Shaoheng created a data package for Hong Kangquan's microchip data to send to Zhao Liangze with the message, "Can you check the Special Operation Forces' software system?"
Zhao Liangze tried it on the other side and shook his head. "No, I can't log in."
Huo Shaoheng looked at Zhao Liangze's administrator privileges. He was logged in remotely. The central control system had stringent requirements for remote logins due to account security measures. However, Zhao Liangze's base had only been recently established so, for the time being, it did not have such strict security yet. As such, they could not guarantee that security measures would be taken after login.
"I will package and send you a portion of the software data concerning the surveillance." Huo Shaoheng did not hesitate. "The Chinese Institute of High Energy Physics should also test safety performance. You should receive it soon."
The most special feature of quantum communication was its extreme security. Even if someone other than the intended receiver succeeded in intercepting it, they wouldn't be able to decipher the content. It would self-destruct the instant a third party intercepted it.
Zhao Liangze still had many unfinished tasks at hand on the island of the Cape of Good Hope in Africa. Conducting remote testing for quantum communication on behalf of the Institute of High Energy Physics was also one of the tasks. Of course, his private task was to locate where the MH210 plane had crashed years ago, and to discover the whereabouts of Gu Xiangwen.
Zhao Liangze finished debugging the quantum communication equipment and waited for Huo Shaoheng to send it. It didn't take long for him to receive the email, and everything looked normal after browsing.
"Get back to work and send me the results as soon as possible." Huo Shaoheng glanced down at his watch. "By tomorrow morning domestic time, it doesn't matter whether there's a problem with the software or not, you must send the results to me."
Zhao Liangze promptly agreed, immediately starting his work. Examining whether or not the performance of software was stable and debugging it required a large number of bipolar encoding and operating procedures.
Zhao Liangze looked at the scalability of the software. Hundreds of thousands of lines of command were displayed in front of him. He started to go cross-eyed just by looking at them. It would be impossible for him to complete such an overwhelming amount of commands by himself.
Zhao Liangze thought about it and decided to use the debugging software he'd created himself on the entire system to capture erroneous commands. This course of action took him more than an hour. He shrunk the number of erroneous instructions to the thousands, which was tremendous progress compared to the hundreds of thousands of commands he'd started with.
But when he further examined these thousands of instructions, he felt that it would be unrealistic to think that he could thoroughly analyze all of them in one night due to limited time and mental capacity.
After contemplating for a while, Zhao Liangze got rid of both ends of the thousands of commands, then split those commands in half. He intended to ask Gu Nianzhi for help.
According to their protocol, Gu Nianzhi's rank did not give her the corresponding authority to view open-source software of such high-security levels. However, Zhao Liangze reverted the commands into their primitive states so he could ask Gu Nianzhi for help.
Since it was impossible to get a full view of the software simply by looking at fragmented open-source software, not to mention that open-source software had not yet been debugged. Zhao Liangze was not too worried that confidential data would be leaked.
Furthermore, the Special Operation Forces had precedents set aside for such situations, such as turning to outside experts to evaluate the software, or even re-evaluating the codes of conduct...
In this case, Gu Nianzhi would be their "outside expert"...
Zhao Liangze thought about it mirthfully and dialed Gu Nianzhi's phone. Gu Nianzhi had just taken a shower and was scrolling through Weibo while lying in bed, pondering over how to extract more information from the police force's official blog.
Zhao Liangze's phone call caught Gu Nianzhi by surprise. Who was calling her at such a late hour?
But when she looked at the phone number and realized it was Zhao Liangze's calling, she quickly picked up and teased him gleefully. "Brother Ze, you finally remembered to call me! I thought you forgot about me!"
"Nianzhi, Brother Ze can forget everyone else, but never you." Zhao Liangze said cheerfully to her, "Open the webcam, I have to tell you something."
Gu Nianzhi quickly opened her webcam and connected to Zhao Liangze with a video call. On his mobile screen, Zhao Liangze's striking face, while formerly fair-skinned, was now a light chocolate hue. He seemed to have gotten more robust, and therefore more soldier-like.
Gu Nianzhi nodded with pleasure. "Brother Ze, it seems like Africa did you well. You look much more manly now."
Zhao Liangze grinned. "As if I wasn't manly before! How offensive!"
Gu Nianzhi simply smirked without saying a word.
"But Nianzhi, what's wrong with your face? And your ear, why is it covered with bandages?" Zhao Liangze had never seen Gu Nianzhi in such an unsightly state.
Gu Nianzhi pointed to her ear and said with displeasure, "...Got bitten by a mad dog. I'm thinking about suing her." The so-called "mad dog" was Cai Shengnan, who'd shockingly ripped off her mask.
What had compelled Cai Shengnan to rip off her mask? Had she done it on impulse, or had she planned it?
Gu Nianzhi felt completely baffled. However, she refrained from disclosing the specifics to Zhao Liangze, merely saying, "I'm fine though, don't worry about me."
The two of them teased each other, finally ending the small talk. Zhao Liangze entered the main topic. "Nianzhi, the reason I called today was to ask you for a favor."
Gu Nianzhi quickly nodded. "I'll help you with anything I can."
"Here's the situation at hand: I have software that needs to be debugged, but I am running out of time, and I need to send in the results by tomorrow morning. I want you to help me debug a portion of it." Zhao Liangze showed Gu Nianzhi the monitor full of commands.
Gu Nianzhi genuinely enjoyed the debugging process. When she saw the densely packed lines of command, her eyes gleamed with pleasure. She was like a connoisseur spotting good food, or a bag collector seeing a rare sold-out bag. Her heart started beating rapidly.
"Sure, sure! I'll check it for you!" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but grin like the Cheshire Cat. "You need it tomorrow, right? If you send the data to my mailbox, I'll check it right away."
She rolled off her bed and went to in front of the desk. Turning on the computer, she found the open-source software file that Zhao Liangze had sent to her mailbox.
After unzipping the file, Gu Nianzhi discovered that these commands were only a tiny portion of the original.
"Brother Ze, the open-source software file that you sent me is only the tip of the iceberg, right?" Gu Nianzhi said teasingly, "If you don't trust me, you don't have to send it to me. I'll delete it right in front of you."
Zhao Liangze desperately wished he could lie on the computer monitor and show Gu Nianzhi how much faith and confidence he had in her. "Nianzhi, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I feel like I am overwhelming you with all this work. Besides, it might not fit your inbox anyway. I went ahead and did some prep work beforehand."
"These are the erroneous commands that I flagged down with my personal debugging software. The bugs should be in these files. I saved half of them for myself and sent half of them to you. We will find them separately, and then summarize them together."
Gu Nianzhi understood what Zhao Liangze meant. She asked, "What is this software for?"
"Data monitoring," Zhao Liangze replied simply. "It corresponds to the signal sent by the microchip tracker, and records the location of the microchip."
Gu Nian understood. "Doesn't that mean that this is simply a GPS signal processor?"
"Haha, similar, but with more precise focus." Zhao Liangze was overjoyed that he'd found the right person for the job. Cooperating with Gu Nianzhi meant that they could resolve this software-related issue in one night.
After assigning their respective tasks, they each began busying themselves with their individual debugging tasks. Gu Nianzhi had nothing better to do anyway, and since her face and ears were all newly injured, she needed to rehabilitate for a few days and avoid those who were vigilantly awaiting the chance to backstab her.


Gu Nianzhi had no idea how to get the aloof and handsome Major General to fall in love with her. 

His eyes were dark and serious. "...Seduce me. If you can do it, I’m yours." 

Gu Nianzhi: "!!!"

When Xiao Yu's fans started expanding their search beyond the VA industry, they hopeful all over again!
There are no eternal secrets. Besides, Zhao Youyue had said that she would not mind using the pandemonium as a means of promoting her 'Ah Yu's Live Broadcast Room.'
'Ah Yu's Live Broadcast Room' grew exceedingly popular. Its number of subscribers passed the million mark. Whenever the live broadcast starts, the viewers would never drop below 100,000. The highest record of simultaneous views would be standing at somewhere around the 300,000s. It was a rather ludicrous amount. But it was no secret that Douyu Live Broadcast Platform would often fabricate view counts of their popular channels and sensationalize matters.
Such an amount may be incomparable to the trending live broadcasts in Douyu which had numbers ranging up to a couple of millions. However, the gap was not as big as one would imagine.
After a long period of fights, Ah Yu's "Unpleasant Night Rain Rhythm 001" successfully climbed to the top position of the national server. That position had been achieved via solo, ranked matchmaking, and under various unforeseen circumstances!
What sorts of unforeseen circumstances, you say?
Situations that included players who actually attempt to sabotage the game, while pretending to have contributed abundantly, players who go AFK on purpose, or players of the opposite team picking her specialized heroes before she could. All of these sought to impede her path, and she forced her way through, crushing the pro players beneath her boots, one after another.
As she progressed, Zhao Youyue finally switched her webcam on. Even so, she did not reveal her face, but her hands. She had no choice, as the 'cyber navies'[1] recruited by some competitors were borderline lunatics. They would start new fires, accusing her of hiring ranking boosters[2] to play on her behalf. Some websites had even started releasing headlines that expressed their doubts. One person could not possibly be this good?
After all, from the public's perspective, video games have always been ruled by men, LoL even moreso. No pro female player had yet to step up the stage, let alone an all-female team, which was downright impossible.
Such an ideal female player only existed in novels, such as 'Yu Shengfan' of "The Strongest King." But now, such a female player had appeared in reality. This had to remain as a fantasy!
Ah Yu's straight-up increasing popularity also left her competitors restless. It had led to the appearance of several 'Cyber Navy' forces.
Even more vicious parties had taken it a step up and called Ah Yu out as a fat otaku who had been using a voice changer software. If not, how else could her voice be so versatile?
Others with ulterior motives even stood up to admit being her ranking boosters. Obviously, they intended to gain 15 minutes of fame, as some professional teams might actually believe those words and choose to recruit them.
Zhao Youyue couldn't be any less bothered about these attacks. However, she was well aware of the saying, "Repeat a lie a thousand times, and it becomes the truth." She would not stand for attacks being made towards Xiao Yu's reputation in reality.
Thus, to quell all the rumors, she finally switched on her webcam, and a la 'Xiao Yuanmiao,' a streamer of another world, turned into a 'headless girl.' Only her neck downwards could be seen. Of course, the emphasis was placed on her hands…
At the same time, she had also requested that Su Li design a 2D cartoon 'face' for her. The cuter, the better, in order to bring more fans to Xiao Yu.
The moment Su Li learned that Lady Zhao was requesting her services again, she accepted without hesitation. She did not just draw one 'face', but one whole set of them, enough to create a full deck of expressions!
It was a Moe girl with long, pink hair. Zhao Youyue liked it very much, although girls with pink hair are usually evil and sadistic...
But how could Lady Zhao possibly be evil? She had always been courteous and generous!
Zhao Youyue could not be any more satisfied. Su Li pleased her the most, among all others. She now considered Su Li, her true friend. They were now closer than ever.
Zhao Youyue switched on her webcam, and placed the 'face' over hers. All at once, her live broadcast popularity achieved 500,000 audiences in a blink of an eye. Her heroics in KoG were hammered, deep into the audiences' minds!
In that match, she fought in the middle lane against a pro player - Wu Yanzu, who was said to be able to have 50% win rate against another famous player - 'Demon King' from Gao Li. He was also live broadcasting, as he was quite handsome. Eventually, Zhao Youyue bullied him like a baboon being cockblocked. He was reduced to a wreck, incoherently screaming and yelling in all sorts of ways. His mouth was only able to spew an endless stream of vulgarities.
What that attracted the audiences the most was Zhao Youyue's beautiful pair of hands dancing on the keyboard. The APM[3] of her hands was truly unbelievable!
Many audiences knelt down the moment they saw her in action. They ended up watching the entirety of live broadcast on their knees!
Ah Yu's webcam doused all the flames beyond the point of reignition. Be it rumors about ranking boosters, fat otakus using voice changer, or the rest. After all, her body appeared within the webcam as well. It was as clear as day that she had the body of a slender, slim girl.
According to those with a so-called learned eye when it comes to "woman-staring," just by looking at Ah Yu's body and her perfect pair of hands, her face could never possibly be ugly. She must definitely be a first class beautiful girl!
Immediately, someone asked, "If that's so, why wouldn't she show her face? She could be far more popular than this now, right?
Some loyal fans had jumped out and said, "Our Ah Yu don't even need to show her face in order to earn a living. She games so well, she's quick-witted and funny, she can even sing, and she is proficient in all kinds of musical instruments. Why should she show her face after all that?
This explanation was truly irrefutable, as Ah Yu was truly talented. She even went on to play the guitar and sing a few songs on that day. It was a most beautiful image!
Not only had Ah Yu achieved the first rank in the national server, but she was also able to create a foothold there. As long as there are no unexpected situations, she would always be able to win. However, she said that she would switch to another game after this season, as LoL no longer had anything to offer. She had recently grown addicted to the game, "Playerunknown's Battlegrounds", which was affectionately called 'Chicken Dinner.' Whenever a player wins a match, there would be the phrase 'Winner winner, chicken dinner' rewarding them.
Some LoL fans were slightly dissatisfied about the matter. They felt that Ah Yu had gotten carried away. Being first in rank within the national server couldn't be called an achievement. The professional competitions and ranking matches were not the same. Not many pro players would put effort into boosting their ranking, not to mention that several pro players were actually more suited for team plays.
Yet, they had ignored the fact that Ah Yu had been able to gain the advantage in her lane, every single time. Even the pro player from Gao Li could not fight stand against her!
Besides, she performed equally well in team fights as well. She would be able to hold her own against an entire team of enemies!
Unfortunately, she did not have the intention of going professional, as there were no Lin Feng in this world.
As it was, Ah Yu achieved the top 1 solo ranking within the national server, and became known as the 'Passerby King.' Thanks to her many other talents, the growth of her popularity seemed to have no boundaries in sight!
Finally, fresh headlines struck the world again, claiming that the popular female live broadcaster, Ah Yu, who was currently LoL's top 1 within the national server, was actually the VA of Yu Shengfan who the 'The Uncrowned King' of "The Strongest King!"
Is that true?
If so, the world was a small, mythical place.

El sábado por la mañana.
La alarma sonó fuerte.
"Ring Ring Ring."
Zhang Ye abrió los ojos y vio que el cielo aún estaba oscuro. Bostezó y se levantó de la cama para ducharse. Sus movimientos eran ligeros, ya que notó que la puerta de la habitación de Dong Shanshan aún estaba cerrada. Todavía estaba dormida. Cuando regresó a su habitación, se refrescó después de tomar una ducha fría. Se sentó frente a su computadora y esperó. Esperó que la otra parte le leyera el correo electrónico. Si descargaba y activaba el caballo de Troya, Zhang Ye recibiría una respuesta.
Esperando.
Esperando.
¿Por qué ese nieto todavía no estaba en línea?
¿Acaso no se ha despertado o simplemente no ha encendido su ordenador?
...
Al mismo tiempo.
En un distrito residencial.
Después de levantarse, Li Tao desayunó con su familia.
Su esposa le preguntó: —¿Necesitas ir a trabajar hoy?
—Es mi día de descanso.
Li Tao no dijo mucho, sólo una frase.
Su esposa le preguntó: —El problema que causó Zhang Ye, ¿te está dando mucha presión? ¿Te afectará? No pasará nada, ¿verdad?
Li Tao estaba comiendo un dumpling mientras se reía: —Si digo que no afectaría nada, estaría mintiendo, pero no te preocupes. No puede causarme muchos problemas, no es una amenaza.
Su hija levantó la vista y dijo: —Papá, ¿está Zhang Ye realmente acabado?
—Está acabado —Li Tao le dio una palmadita en la cabeza a su hija—, ya ha provocado a las masas, hay muchos otros que quieren que caiga. Incluso si no me ocupara de él, tarde o temprano se ocuparían de él.
Su hija aplaudió con alegría.
—¡Eso es genial, ¡eso es lo que pasa cuando regaña a nuestro Lee Parkwoo!
Li Tao dijo cariñosamente: —Está bien, está bien, está bien, cuando venga a Shanghai para cualquier programa, llamaré a la estación de televisión para pedirle un favor. Es sólo un pequeño detalle.
Su hija le dijo emocionada: —¡Papá, eres el mejor!
—Ja, ja, ja, ja, come rápido.
Después del desayuno, la esposa de Li Tao se fue a trabajar. Su hija salió con sus compañeros de clase. Estaba solo en el dormitorio, así que encendió la computadora para leer algunas noticias y revisar su Weibo y su correo electrónico.
"Di."
Tienes correo.
Li Tao miró la notificación y le dio otro vistazo.
¿No eres un hombre si no miras? ¿Fotografía de un mirón? ¿La foto privada de Zhang Yuanqi?
¡Maldita sea, tan erótico y tan agitador! Esto.... ¡debo verlo!
Sin otra palabra, Li Tao navegó con su ratón e hizo clic en el archivo adjunto de la foto del correo electrónico. La seguridad de la red de ese mundo era muy buena. Había logrado limitar un gran número de hackers o de aficionados con motivaciones egoístas. Para ellos eso era una forma de abuso, pero como en todos los casos, siempre había pros y contras. Desde una perspectiva diferente, había un pro en ese asunto, que la conciencia de los internautas había bajado mucho. No eran tan cautelosos como la gente del mundo anterior de Zhang Ye. Como tal, Li Tao no tenía ningún sentido de cautela. Todo lo que quería hacer era ver rápidamente la foto, pero cuando la foto finalmente se cargó, Li Tao no pudo evitar maldecir: —¡Jode a tu abuela! ¿Quién es esa extranjera? ¿Dónde está Zhang Yuanqi? ¿Dónde está la foto muy erótica? ¡Esto es hacer trampa! ¿Todavía te queda una pizca de humanidad?
...
En el otro extremo.
La casa de Zhang Ye.
Después de beber su té y fumar un cigarrillo, vio de repente que su software cliente de caballo de Troya había respondido. En la interfaz de control había aparecido una PC cliente. Sólo había enviado el caballo de Troya a Li Tao, así que no hacía falta decir que esa debía ser su PC.
¡Ya está hecho!
¡Finalmente había tenido éxito!
¡Ese nieto estaba usando su software pirata!
Zhang Ye de pronto se sentó derecho. Hoy en día, los troyanos se controlaban básicamente con una estructura C/S. Así era como eran llamados en el mundo anterior de Zhang Ye. Por allí, se llamaba estructura B-IC. El significado era el mismo y era bastante fácil de entender. El caballo de Troya había sido plantado con éxito y había pasado el cortafuegos de Li Tao. Utilizando una vulnerabilidad muy antigua en el sistema, se podría decir que Zhang Ye ahora tenía control total sobre su PC. Se había convertido en una parte de su botnet, lo que significaba que ahora podía controlar ese PC libremente.
Al introducir un comando, la dirección IP de Li Tao apareció en la pantalla. Era una IP no estática y cada vez que se conectaba a Internet, era diferente. Pero con ese troyano activo en su sistema ahora, no tenía que preocuparse de verificar su dirección IP cada vez que lo hacía. Cada vez que esa PC se conectase, el caballo de Troya enviaría su dirección IP al cliente del caballo de Troya de Zhang Ye. A menos que el sistema infectado fuese parcheado o que su cortafuegos fuese actualizado, no podría escapar del control de Zhang Ye.
En cuanto al lenguaje y estilo de entrada del comando, no había grandes diferencias entre los dos mundos. Eso se debió al hecho de que todos los lenguajes de programación estaban hechos en inglés. Si el inglés de ese mundo no cambiaba, entonces los lenguajes de programación tampoco diferirían demasiado. Introdujo algunos comandos más. Los detalles actuales de navegación de su víctima, el grupo de trabajo del ordenador, el nombre del ordenador, el nombre de la cuenta y las contraseñas de administrador fueron recopilados por Zhang Ye y nadie más sabía nada aparte de él.
É tenía miedo de que su víctima se desconectara de Internet. Si eso sucediera, entonces no importa cuán hábil fuese un hacker, no sería capaz de hacer nada. Así que rápidamente ejecutó su plan, ¡verificar todos los documentos de la computadora, incluyendo los escondidos!
C Drive - Nada.
D Drive - Nada.
E Drive - Nada.
La computadora de Li Tao estaba limpia. Excepto por algunos juegos y softwares, no tenía nada más. Ni siquiera un archivo de película. Zhang Ye revisó el historial del navegador y logró encontrar rastros de varios sitios web poco saludables, pero eso no servía de nada, apenas podría meter a Li Tao en problemas. No estaba satisfecho. Buscó por todas partes, pero no encontró nada.
¡Eso era imposible!
¿Quién no tendría ninguna cosa vergonzosa en sus computadoras?
Se quedó rascándose la cabeza. Ese plan tampoco fue fructífero, pero todavía tenía algo más bajo la manga. Como el ordenador de la víctima estaba ahora bajo su control, ¡podía obtener más información!
¡Como encender la cámara web!
Ese fue su siguiente curso de acción, pero antes de eso, tenía que hacer algunos ajustes. Así que ingresó un comando. Hoy en día, las webcams solían venir con luces LED. Algunas se utilizaban para iluminar al sujeto y eran comunes en las cámaras web independientes. El otro tipo serían las webcams incorporadas en los ordenadores que tienen un pequeño indicador luminoso en forma de alfiler. Incluso un tonto sabría que eso no iluminaría a ningún sujeto con una luz tan pequeña. Esa luz se usaba como señal para que el usuario supiera que su webcam estaba en uso. Así que, naturalmente, ese ajuste tendría que estar desactivado. De lo contrario, lo revelaría todo. Algunos softwares de hacking tenían una configuración para apagar esta luz, pero otros no. Se requería un cierto esfuerzo para apagarla, pero era necesario para asegurar el sigilo. Por supuesto, el uso de los recursos de la CPU se incrementaría bastante después de encender la webcam, pero no se podía evitar. Era un problema de hardware, nadie podía hacer nada al respecto.
¡Todo estaba listo!
¡La webcam fue activada!
De repente, una gran cara apareció frente a Zhang Ye. Se concentró y sonrió fríamente. ¡Era esa cara de "pedir una paliza" de Li Tao!
Li Tao estaba mirando su pantalla. No había transmisión de sonido desde el otro lado.
Tomó otra acción, activar el micrófono del PC de su víctima.
"Da, da."
El sonido de los clics del ratón podía ser escuchado por Zhang Ye ahora. Podía oír todo lo que pasaba en la habitación de su víctima. ¡Todo estaba bajo su control!
Posteriormente, a Zhang Ye no le importó las consecuencias y comenzó a grabar el video y el audio, ese fue un proceso que estaba sucediendo en su propia computadora portátil. Grabó todos los movimientos de Li Tao. El objetivo era encontrar algo que pudiera derribarlo. Sin embargo, cuando comenzó la grabación, el portátil de Zhang Ye con especificaciones normales empezó a ralentizarse. Incluso si no intentaba abrir ninguna otra aplicación, el puntero de su ratón ya estaba muy retrasado cuando atravesaba la pantalla. Zhang Ye sonrió amargamente mientras deshabilitaba algunas tareas de fondo para aliviar la carga de la CPU.
Después de otra larga espera.
Unos 10 minutos después, Li Tao se levantó de repente. Dejó la pantalla donde la cámara no podía ver. Zhang Ye pudo escuchar de la señal de audio que Li Tao salió a la sala de estar. No se desconectó de Internet ya que él aún estaba conectado a su PC.
Así que esperó.
Además de esperar, no había nada más que pudiera hacer.
Después de unos minutos más, Li Tao regresó. Se sentó frente a la computadora una vez más.
Ser un hacker conllevaba sus riesgos. Esa era la razón por la que Zhang Ye no se levantó de su asiento. En el caso de que alguien empezara a rastrear el hackeo hasta él, podría borrar rápidamente todas sus huellas.
El timbre de un teléfono móvil empezó a sonar.
Zhang Ye miró inconscientemente hacia el suyo, no era su teléfono móvil.
Entonces vio en la pantalla que Li Tao había contestado su teléfono. Estaba fumando un cigarrillo y dijo: —Hola, pequeño Yong ah... sí... sí... ¿Cómo van las investigaciones de esos programas de entrevistas... sé que hay violaciones... pero sólo toma algunas acciones simbólicamente en su contra y estará bien, no hay necesidad de detener sus transmisiones... exacto... ¿derechos de autor? Sé que plagiaron el programa de Zhang Ye, pero si hay un problema con los derechos de autor, no nos concierne. Es el trabajo de los departamentos de derechos de autor pertinentes. Aunque lo lleven a juicio, no tiene nada que ver con nosotros... no es necesario que nos encontremos con castigos demasiado duros para ellos, pero tampoco hay que hacerlos demasiado ligeros. Al menos tenemos que demostrar al público que vamos en serio. ¿Necesitas que te enseñe?
¿Qué?
¿Hablando de mí ahora?
¡Los ojos de Zhang Ye se iluminaron!
Luego, continuando, Li Tao dijo: —Esa chica de Weiwo Video... esa chica Dong algo. Su programa ha sido detenido, ¿verdad? Bien... ¿quién? Quienquiera que llame... sí... lo sé, pero no importa quién ruegue por ella. Es la compañera de clase de Zhang Ye en la universidad, así que les prohibiremos a los dos... bien, ir contra nuestro equipo y causarnos tantos problemas, ja, ¿acaso pensaron que vivirían en paz? ¡De ninguna manera! En el futuro, no pierdas de vista a esa compañía de Weiwo Video. Si hay algún problema con alguno de sus programas, infórmenme... sí, los usaremos como ejemplo para otros. A ver quién se atreve todavía a rebelarse... ja, ja, ¿crees que no soy consciente de que "Talentos en Línea" no tiene ningún problema? Incluso si no hay problemas, ¡tomaremos medidas contra él! ¿Quién puede hacer algo al respecto? ¿Entiendes?... está bien, ve y encárgate de ello. ¡Debes reprimir todas esas opiniones negativas! Quien se niegue a aceptarlo, me lo informas.
La llamada terminó.
Li Tao apagó su cigarrillo y siguió navegando por Internet. ¡Era completamente inconsciente de que cada palabra que acababa de decir había sido grabada por Zhang Ye!
Él estaba muy emocionado, ¡se golpeó los muslos con fuerza!
¡Ya está hecho! ¡Eso era justo lo que quería! Con eso, ¿Li Tao todavía querría prosperar? ¡No prosperaría otro día!
Después de esperar otros 15 minutos, sin nada digno de ver, Zhang Ye se desconectó de ese ordenador. Apagó la cámara y el micrófono y limpió los registros de eventos en el ordenador de su víctima. Eliminó todos los rastros del hackeo excepto el caballo de Troya, que no podía borrar. No había manera de hacerlo, ya que era un tipo muy común de troyano. No había un programa de desinstalación para ello, sólo los troyanos de clase mundial lo tendrían, pero era inofensivo. Cada hacker dejaba rastros de software, correos electrónicos, troyanos, etc., cuando hackeaban el sistema de alguien. Mientras se borrasen los registros de eventos, no habría ningún problema. Sería imposible de rastrear desde allí.
Cerró el programa de control.
Se desconectó de Internet para estar seguro. Sólo entonces revisó las imágenes grabadas y editó la parte más importante.
¿Querías darnos un mordisco a mí y a mi antigua compañera de clase?
¡Li Tao! ¡Estás... acabado! ¡Aunque venga tu padre del cielo, no podrá salvarte!

Seoul, Korea
Gwangjin District


Laughter came from the speakers on the laptop.

“William, you are hilarious,” Myo Mi-Sun said, dabbing her eyes.

Tae-il was laughing, shaking his head.

The amused man sitting between them merely smiled; his silver, white and navy hair standing up, making him look slightly crazed. The cartoon pajama pants and colorful hoodie he wore were comical to say the least, and were a topic of discussion during the Q and A.

“I’m sure the fans were just dying to know that your dream is to ride a battle hippo naked through the streets of the business district in Singapore,” Tae-il said before he started laughing all over again.

Will shrugged. “For having the money I do and not doing it yet means it’s only a matter of time before I do,” he said before wagging his brows, causing them to laugh even more.

They pressed pause on the video from the live feed that concluded an hour ago. They used their fingers to zoom in on the face of the laughing young woman on the screen.

“So beautiful,” they whispered, caressing Myo Mi-Sun’s face.

It was dark in the room, the webcam had a piece of tape over it, and the microphone and location software was disabled. A Virtual Private Network allowed for their IP Address to read as if they are in the United States, so that should have helped keep them under the radar.

With a hacker in Myo Mi-Sun’s pocket, one of the caliber that William Lee was, they had to take extra precautions. So far they had been lucky; Chairman Hu’s delay in getting his client security allowed for Myo Mi-Sun to be easy to get next to.

That made it completely acceptable that they hadn’t noticed them yet or taken their intentions to heart.

She only needed time, they said. 

That was understandable. 

Myo Mi-Sun didn’t know real romance, was young, and now that Gang Moon was out of the picture it should have made it their time to have her all to themselves.

And they almost did.

But now, it was impossible to get near Myo Mi-Sun.

Never was she alone. Armed guards followed her everywhere. When Dae-Ho wasn’t around, Pan Jin was. When the President wasn’t there, another guard was, one that was impossible to keep track of.

But the one constant was the tall, broad, scowling guard that was never out of reach of Myo Mi-Sun.

“William Lee isn’t a concern,” they said, looking at the video still. “Tae-il isn’t either, you haven’t looked at him once in any way other than that of a friend or cousin. But you,” they said, moving the bar on the video timeline to 35:05. “You are a problem.”

They unpaused the video.

Myo Mi-Sun looked to the side before taking the offered cup of coffee. “Thank you,” she whispered with a small smile, her cheeks flushing before her tongue swept over her bottom lip.

They paused the video again.

“Who gave you the drink and caused such a response in you?” they asked.

The video was framed, the sides were fuzzy so it showed nothing, just blurry movement that didn’t give discernible shape to anyone or anything around them. There wasn’t much noise, not that would suggest they were on a jet as they had said they were, but their experience with private jets was nonexistent so it was a possibility.

“Where did you run off to this time?” they asked. “The long weekend is a long week now. You’re welcome for that,” they said, unpausing the video and watched it muted. “She keeps looking over at someone… It has to be the tall one with the perpetual scowl on their face,” they said, angry. 

They closed the video then pulled up some photos from set and the various exits for Stage C.

They had put together the clearest shots of Myo Mi-Sun, and unlike before when on set, there was now a smile on her face and sparkle in her eyes, even when fighting with Hwang Sang-Hee. She was happy, there was no question about it, but it wasn’t some foreigner that was supposed to make her smile and blush, or happy for that matter…

It was supposed to be them!

“After seeing what you did to Gang Moon, I can’t go at you straight forward,” they said, looking at a side-shot of Kita getting the car door for Myo Mi-Sun; he guided her by the small of the back into the car before ducking in behind her. “But there are ways to get you out of the picture, they are just more tiresome and labor intensive.”

They look to the trash bin in the corner where dozens of empty bottles of eye care solution was spilling from.

“Too bad you didn’t have an appetite,” they said. “Oh well. There are other ways you can be removed from the picture, I just might have to hurt her in order to do it.”

Absently they picked up the yellow plastic tube from the table next to them and spun it around their fingers, causing the delicate injector inside to slide back and forth in the protective casing.

“If he fails her, would she push him away?” they asked, trying to put themselves in Myo Mi-Sun’s shoes. 

When she hid away from the world after Gang Moon dumped her on national television, she turned her back on him completely for hurting her as had. Amusingly enough, it wasn’t by chance that he fell into bed with Gok Soo. Not surprisingly though, it took less pushing then they thought it would to get the two into bed.

That took Gok Soo out of Myo Mi-Sun’s life as well; they were tabloid friends, for the most part, and had been in public together shopping or getting lunch multiple times throughout the years. With Gok Soo removed, that meant there was room to fill the void Gok Soo’s absence created.

It was all going to plan until the flames spread too fast, and Chairman Hu got scared.

They flipped to the tab they were using to search for the clearest photo of the biggest complication they faced when it came to being with Myo Mi-Sun.

Nothing was pulling up, and every time they thought they found something, it was gone and an error message of FILE NOT FOUND replaced it.

They thought they were being sneaky and taking the proper steps, but they had been wrong before, and history was repeating itself.

The knock at the door pulled their attention before the locked door broke free from the hinges and parts of the frame flew into the apartment.

In walked a woman with a sheathed sword in her hands, down in front of her, and a smile was on her face. The business suit she wore suggested she was armed with more than the sword in her hands. Her glasses made her look harmless and slightly nerdy, her short hair gave her a youthful, androgynous appearance, but the coldness in her eyes suggested she was dangerous.

“Who in the Hell are you?” they asked.

“Hello, I am a friend. We have a common enemy I would like to discuss with you,” Ryo said with a slight bow of the head and smirk.



Very few people know Seon Rain, but everyone knows Myo Mi-Sun—the stage name she uses as a superstar film and TV actress, who has stolen the heart of the nation by playing the sweet-hearted girl next door. But fame can bring unwanted attention, and when Rain’s apartment burns down and police suspect foul play, her manager decides to hire a world-glass bodyguard.

Kita Yasuhiro is a highly-trained bodyguard with a strict code of honor. Despite his flawless skills, his failure at a previous job has brought shame onto his name. Little as Kita wants to deal with a bratty young woman, he has no choice but to take this job.

Their meeting becomes exciting when Rain trips and almost falls down the stairs, Kita catching her just in time. Tall, handsome, well-dressed . . . To Rain, it is one of those moments that she has played out on television so many times over the years: the perfect man running into her when she least expects it, but when she needs him most. Out of habit from her acting experience, she puckers her lips, readying for a kiss.

The man gives her a look of disgust and leans back, dropping her on her rear.

Rain screams in frustration!

At night, the housekeeping aunty prepared dinner on time and then left after that.
When Liu Zilang and Zhang Xiaotong went to the kitchen to take their food, as soon as their eyes met, they looked away. The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.
Speaking of which, this lassie seemed to have noticed that he had used an alternate account to add her.
Previously on QQ, it was like a dream she had in her second year of secondary school, whereby she mentioned a lot of hopes she had for her brother.
Back then, the premise was that they were both strangers to each other and were only two individuals among the mass of people online who would never be connected in any way.
However, now that she found out this person was right next to her, and he was her own brother.
Indeed, it was rather awkward…
…
As Liu Zilang ate in the living room, he casually took his phone out.
Initially, he had thought that Zhang Xiaotong would have removed his alternate account from her list after finding out his secret. To his surprise, after he logged in, he noticed that she was still in his buddy list. Thus, he could not help but feel startled.
'What's going on?
'Did she not find out about it?'
Liu Zilang scratched his head and was absolutely clueless even after much thought of the matter.
Nonetheless, when faced with things that he could not comprehend, he had a strength not possessed by many. That strength was that he could simply not think about it anymore.
After finishing his food, he was his plate and then returned to his room.
…
Sitting in front of his computer, Liu Zilang suddenly had the urge to open his Douyu account.
In the MAG section, before he even searched, he found the live streaming channel with the title "After School Chat".
Liu Zilang rubbed his chin.
'This lassie is streaming live while she's eating, is she that dedicated?'
As Liu Zilang wondered, he moved his cursor over and clicked into the channel.
The live streaming channel's interface was very adorable as many MAG anime characters could be seen.
Through the webcam on the bottom right corner, a girl was seen holding a large porcelain bowl with her fairly white skin. Her fingers seemed delicate and long, just like tips of bamboo shoots after a rain.
Although the webcam did not capture the streamer's face, based on the large porcelain bowl, those hands, and the background of the room, Liu Zilang was certain that she was Zhang Xiaotong.
Indeed, that little girl was quite lively as she streamed. While she took mouthfuls of her food, she paid attention to her bullet screen and conversed with her spectators in her live streaming channel.
"I finished all my homework today in school!
"The dance cover I did with Yumeng previously has been uploaded to Bilibili, go take a look if you're interested.
"Whoo! I'm so full! I'll be singing first at night and then I'll be playing games with everyone."
Right then, somebody asked on her bullet screen, "Xiaotong-chan, where's Guru Vic?", "Xiaotong-chan, are you going to play with Guru Vic tonight?"...
Zhang Xiaotong put her bowl down and then took a sip of her drink.
Looking at her bullet screen, she was obviously startled. She fell silent for a while before she replied, "Vic isn't here, I'll be playing by myself today."
When Liu Zilang heard Zhang Xiaotong's response, he initially thought that the spectators in her live streaming channel would insist she look for him to play a few matches.
Who knew that countless bullet screen messages would have spammed her screen.
"Wow! That's perfect! Xiaotong-chan, pick me!"
"I'd like to get in the car too! Win, win, win!"
"Xiaotong-chan, I'll carry you! I guarantee to give you all the kills!"
"Bring me, bring me!"
"..."
Liu Zilang's eyes twitched as he read the bullet screen.
These people were simply brutes!
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaotong did not agree with any of them. She mentioned that she wanted to play solo to train her skills. This made her spectators howl in grief.
On the other hand, Liu Zilang "sneered" continuously at those people.
'Hmph!
'How dare noobs like you think about carrying girls in a game? On top of that, that's my sister.
'Try in your next lives!'
Once Liu Zilang had those thoughts, he had a sudden urge.
He clicked into Douyu's registration interface, registered an account and then entered the "Application for Live Streaming" column.
'Yes!
'That's right!'
Liu Zilang suddenly wanted to stream live as well.
…
In actual fact, live streaming was a new thing to Liu Zilang.
Due to his professional career in the past, for some reason, he had to wear masks during offline competitions, let alone during live streams.
Later on, when Liu Zilang retired as he was disheartened, he rarely looked at live streams.
With that being said, after playing with Li Muqiu, PDD, and Zhou Erke for the whole afternoon, Liu Zilang witnessed them gaining attention from their fans and spectators all the time. In the game itself, countless people cheered for them no matter what they did.
At that moment, he felt like he had returned to his professional competitions in the past.
For every remarkable move he made, he was able to share it with his fans.
'This feels quite good…'
Inevitably, this stirred up his heart a little.
Besides, all along, he had been acting without delay. Or else, three years ago, he would not have taken the money given by his father to be a professional gamer without saying a word about it.
Despite all that, Liu Zilang did not see this coming.
Though the registration for a Douyu account was simple, the application for a live streaming channel was complicated.
With all the information requested such as verification for his identification card, it really got his dander up.
He began pondering if Li Muqiu and the others went through the same trouble when they began streaming live…
As a matter of fact, Li Muqiu and Shen Zeyan did not have to go through such trouble.
As superstar players, not only did they have contracts with whopping prices but they had their own personalized live streaming channels.
Information about their identification cards was directly settled by the platform and they did not have to do things by themselves just like Liu Zilang did.
…
After going through a hassle, Liu Zilang finally succeeded in uploading everything. What was left was the verification that would be completed "within 48 hours".
Despite the verification time said to be within 48 hours, in reality, it did not take that long.
That night, perhaps the backstage workers of Douyu had nothing much to do, and it only took half an hour before Liu Zilang received a notification that the verification process was successful.
The name Liu Zilang used for his stream was also his username in games, "Vic123". Subsequently, he downloaded a live streaming software according to the steps given.
Once everything was prepared, Liu Zilang who was immensely proud with his progress began streaming live.
…
After Liu Zilang opened the game, he came out to take a look at his live streaming channel since he had to wait for the game's interface to load.
In the beginning, he thought that he would not have any viewers since he had just begun streaming live.
However, when he looked, he noticed that he had over ten viewers in his live streaming channel.
'What's going on?'
