The God Virus

Volume 2 - 58 The Bottom

Almost every government started recognizing the allied phone companies as the criminal who had stolen the technology through their websites or through holding a press conference.

They said the higher-ups had received the related evidence which points at the allied phone companies as the offender, while obviously making it clear that the Virus Industries were the victim in this plot.

Listening to this, everyone who followed the government related topics and announcements were astounded, while most of the normal people still hadn’t heard of this news.

But it didn’t take long before almost every news channel, television and radio channels, news websites, and whatnot started playing the video which made everyone who saw the news around the world amazed and astonished.

This was the same video that the FBI beauty had watched and seen, everyone started cursing the allied phone companies as the real shameless people and thieves after watching the video.

Now both the government and the common people knew who was the real culprit behind the scenes, and some were blaming themselves for believing too easily in what other people said.

All in all, just like Virus had expected, people’s impression of Virus Industries couldn’t get better.

But, some people with brains existed that were still suspicious of Virus Industries, now some of these people were among common people while some belonged to different governments with power.

Though this suspicion was not toward believing that they had stolen the phones from the allied companies, no, their suspicion of that matter was completely cleared after seeing the video.

What they suspected was that only the Virus Industries who was so advanced, could be behind the ’Ghost Theft’ case, and this suspicion became even more when they realized the technologies like the phones, truly belonged to them.

After seeing the press conference held by the CEO ugly, all of the CEOs from the allied companies held an emergency meeting at a hidden location.

Now, they were all together in a meeting conference room, much smaller than before.

All of them had ashen faces like they were facing the greatest crisis in their lives as a deadly silence loomed over the conference room.

Finally, the CEO from the USA talked with a heavy tone, breaking the silence "I’ve never imagined they would release better phones, and exactly on the day we release it at that. If we’ve known, we would have stuck with the first plan to equal the scales, at least like that, our chances would’ve been higher than this."

"Yeah... that’s true... " The CEO from Korea said with a downcast face.

A dark and depressed atmosphere was looming over the room as some had slack expressions, while some had dark circles under their eyes.

The CEO from the USA’s phone company turned serious as he continued, "Okay, it’s not the time for us to give up, let’s think about this very seriously and I’m sure we would definitely be able to find a solution to this problem too, if we put all of our heads and brains in this, just like we did the previous time."

Everyone started gaining some hope as light started coming back to their eyes, thinking what the CEO from the US said was not wrong, they had faced lot’s of crises in their career and they had gotten past all of them. They thought they will definitely get past this one too just like the previous ones. And more importantly, they were not alone too!

As they were about to start pouring ideas to the table, suddenly someone barged into the conference room as he said "Sorry to intrude, but let me turn on the television, I was just informed that important news related to the allied phone companies are being broadcasted all over the world."

Listening to his tone everyone started having a bad feeling about this.

The CEO from Korea told him to turn it on and leave, and just like ordered, that person who was the secretary of that Korean CEO turned the television on before taking his leave.

All the news around the world had just started broadcasting the video about the allied phone companies’ meeting which the FBI beauty had watched.

As they saw the video that was being broadcasted from the news their minds completely froze!

All of the CEOs had been stunned silly and stayed frozen like that, staring blankly with wide eyes at the television which was showing their secret conference meeting which was supposed to be completely secure.

Almost all of them went pale immediately, paler than ever in their lives as their features started trembling.

Some had beads of sweat pouring down their foreheads, while some had faraway look like they were wondering where had it gone wrong.

"...It’s all over... we’re done here..." Said the CEO from the US phone company clenching his jaws with his pale face, he was the first to come out of being frozen silly, as he immediately started thinking what this meant and he knew that there was nothing that could be done to save them from this situation anymore, which made him sink into the depths of depression and hopelessness.

"We’re doomed..." The Korean CEO too came out of his daze as he said with a dark tone, but his eyes were red, completely moist.

There were different reactions from the CEOs as some started crying, some were laughing like they had gone crazy, while some had almost no reaction at all.

One of them even grabbed behind his neck as he seemed to have started having a heart attack, but there were trusted bodyguards, guarding the doors inside the conference meeting room, which immediately acted and took that CEO out of the conference room as they took him somewhere and his fate unknown.

Some were mumbling something under their lips like "All those efforts... everything I’ve done.... is completely destroyed."

One of them even seemed to be denying all of this as he smiled saying "Come on everyone, we will get past this too! let’s just put our brains in this as Mr. X said, and I’m sure we will figure this out too!"

Listening to him the CEO from the US who had almost accepted the reality and knew everything was over thought ’He has lost it...’
