“Hacker intrusion?”
Lin Chuan’s brows furrowed, as his eyes fixed on the six white Chinese characters in the middle of the blue screen: “Hello, my friend.”
This was a kind of remote control technology.
The principle was simple, but the implementation was difficult.
Because, when accessing remotely, one had to deceive the firewall set up by Lin Chuan and also intrude into the computer to gain his administrative privileges.
The firewall and administrative privileges of the studio computer, due to time constraints, had only been temporarily set up by Lin Chuan.
However, the fact that someone could infiltrate his studio computer unnoticed, undoubtedly indicated a top-level hacker.
Lin Chuan was also a top-level hacker.
In his professional hacking life in “Experience Life,” he had faced countless similar situations.
Therefore.
Lin Chuan didn’t panic, but methodically operated the keyboard and mouse to regain control of his studio computer.
In just two minutes, Lin Chuan had taken back control.
At this time, Lin Chuan didn’t choose to shut down the blue screen but used this program to communicate with the other party.
“Who are you?”
“Hello there, I am Angelina.”
The other party was quick too, this program functioned much like a normal communication tool that could be used to exchange information.
Angelina?
Lin Chuan slightly frowned, he had already tracked Angelina’s IP address to North Bear.
“What do you want?” Lin Chuan asked directly.
“Hello Mr. Lin, I mean no harm, your ‘Hacker Kingdom’ is really good,” Angelina replied.
Lin Chuan’s brow grew tighter, and he was momentarily stunned: “A reader?”
“Yes, Mr. Lin, I am your reader.” On the blue screen, another string of information from Angelina appeared.
Mr. Lin took his hands off the keyboard and couldn’t help but hold his forehead, sinking into a late-night emo mood.
Are all my readers this incredible?
I don’t need to mention the comrades at Anling Police Station.
“To respect and abide by the law is everyone’s responsibility,” and not to mention the outlaws from the reader group.
This reader from North Bear was even a top-level hacker, who directly intruded into my computer to say hello.
Is this something a normal reader would do?
After a long pause.
Lin Chuan replied, “Angelina, don’t you think this is a bit impolite?”
“You are a world-class hacker, I thought you would like this cool way of greeting,” Angelina responded.
“Alright, it’s indeed cool,” Lin Chuan smiled.
“Mr. Lin, I spent a whole two days reading your autobiography, your life experience is just so rich and colorful.”
Clearly, Angelina had become a faithful reader of Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan’s face darkened, he replied, “‘Hacker Kingdom’ is not an autobiography, it’s a fictional story set in the Virtual World.”
Angelina’s level of Chinese was very good, she sent a long string of text in one breath.
“I completely understand, Mr. Lin, I too live in the Virtual World, where stories are unseen by others. Many believe it to be fiction, but in reality, it’s happening,” she said.
Hisss!
Lin Chuan took a deep breath.
The air was still a bit chilly in April evenings.
Almost forgot, the environment hackers live in is a lot different from the real world, hence their way of thinking greatly differs from ordinary people.
Luckily, Angelina was an overseas reader.
If domestic readers also shared this thought, they would have already dialed Police Number, ready to collect the reward.
No one can resist the temptation of a 200 bounty.
Even if the person they’re reporting is their favorite author!
And so.
Lin Chuan just smiled faintly and asked, “This is just a work of fiction, no need to take it seriously.”
“NONONO!”
Angelina sent three NOs in succession: “What I see is a masterpiece by a world-class hacker at the peak of his craft!”
Lin Chuan’s eyebrows rose, and his fingers tapped rapidly on the keyboard: “Angelina, thank you for your recognition.”
“SO, I, on behalf of HK, am extending an invitation to you, hoping that you will become our ally and fight alongside us,” Angelina invited.
“?”
Lin Chuan was taken aback. She’s inviting me to become an ally of HK?
HK, the most influential hacker organization in North Bear. They have defeated countless hacker organizations in cyber battles and are renowned worldwide.
They are both North Bear’s sturdiest firewall and sharpest spear in the Virtual World.
Angelina explained the reason for inviting Lin Chuan: “In your autobiography, you once committed crimes and later transformed into a Red Hacker to fight for your country, which aligns perfectly with our HK’s principles. We really hope you will become our ally.”
Lin Chuan calmed his emotions and declined politely: “Sorry, I am just one person who wants to write novels.”
Angelina: “We respect your wishes. Your novel is very good; I think I must recommend it to my friends—they’ll love it.”
Mr. Lin’s eyes brightened, and a smile appeared on his face: “Thank you.”
As a hub of hacker culture, North Bear.
Should Angelina recommend “Hacker Kingdom” to her friends, it is bound to be well received.
“I hope we can become friends,” Angelina sent the message sincerely.
Lin Chuan smiled, “I hope so.”
“Alright, I will come to you next time,” Angelina replied.
“Don’t find me like this next time; you can add my QQ or WeChat,” Lin Chuan said with a laugh.
“Okay.”
Angelina left the chat.
A few minutes later.
A notification popped up on Lin Chuan’s QQ.
Ding dong ding dong.
‘Angelina has requested to add you as a friend.’
‘Additional information: Mr. Lin, I am your loyal reader.’
‘Source: Found by account search.’
Lin Chuan smirked to himself, sure enough, even the QQ account is not a secret before a top-class hacker.
Accept.
“Next time you have something to talk about, you can send it directly to me here,” Lin Chuan sent a message to Angelina through the QQ chat window.
“Okay/OK.jpg.”
Angelina replied with an OK emoticon first and then said, “Your novel is just too good. I have to promote it tonight.”
Lin Chuan smiled, “Then thank you for the promotion.”
Loyal reader fan +1.
But.
What Lin Chuan didn’t know was that Angelina wasn’t just a loyal fan, but a fanatic one.
…
North Bear.
In a sci-fi-themed studio.
A girl wore an off-shoulder black top, her white shoulders and neck as graceful as a swan. She blinked her large brown eyes and murmured in the North Bear language:
“‘Hacker Kingdom’ is truly the pinnacle in the Hacker World. I think every hacker should be aware of its existence!”
“Yes! They must be aware of its existence!”
She was Angelina.
Angelina immediately turned on her computer, started editing code, and fiddled with a specific push notification program.
All to promote Lin Chuan’s “Hacker Kingdom.”
That night, an untold number of hackers in North Bear mysteriously received a special push notification on their phones.
