Chapter 353 – Daily Life, Warm Family (1)

“Ugh...”

After waking up from her slumber, Chen Yike stretched her waist and sat up on her bed. She then stared at the empty space in front of her drowsily for some time before realization suddenly dawned upon her, and she hurriedly reached for her phone.

“It’s three o’clock?! It’s over! It’s over! I’m too late...”

Chen Yike hurriedly opened Bilibili’s application and visited Transdimensional Review’s homepage. When she saw that today’s livestream had ended, she immediately slumped down onto her bed.

“I overslept again! Why do I always get so sleepy whenever a livestream is coming up?!”

After feeling depressed for a while, Chen Yike tossed her phone away and picked up the notebook on the piano stand. She then drew a big, red cross on the words “Mission 005,” which represented another failure in her “Expose My Elder Brother” operation.

“This doesn’t make sense. I never take naps during the day...”

Puzzled by the situation, Chen Yike eventually gave up on figuring out the reason for her sleepiness. She then jumped out of her bed, stood in front of the vanity mirror, and straightened her hair. Afterward, she turned around to leave her room.

However, just as her hand had come into contact with the doorknob, she looked back to the mirror, and an imaginary lightbulb appeared above her head.

“That’s right! Wouldn’t I know why if I get a camera?’

Thinking up to this point, Chen Yike promptly grabbed her phone and clicked into her Taobao[1] application. After searching for the words “micro surveillance camera,” she quickly found a suitable product.

Desk Lamp-Type Micro Camera!

The product came in the form of an ordinary desk lamp, and it had a hidden micro camera that could capture videos at 720p resolution. The camera could also be controlled wirelessly using a mobile application, and it could capture footage for 12 hours consecutively on a full charge.

“Perfect.”

Chen Yike bought the micro camera without hesitation. She then patted her belly in satisfaction.

Pat! Pat! Pat!

“Having just a camera isn’t enough. I’ll need lockpicking tools, listening-in devices, pepper spray...”

...

“Leader, Target C has purchased a lot of special items online. This is the list. Please take a look.”

Inside the second-floor office of China’s embassy in America, Big Sis Wu placed a set of documents on the middle-aged team leader’s table and said, “They are mainly surveillance and monitoring equipment.”

“Target C... Chen Yike?” The middle-aged team leader accepted the documents and gave them a brief look. “They are all toys for amateurs.”

“Yes. The target doesn’t have any channels to obtain professional equipment from.”

“What is she doing this for?” the middle-aged team leader asked, a sharp glint flashing across his eyes.

“Target C is suspicious of Chen Yu. She suspects that her brother is Transdimensional’s UP.”

“That’s it!” Suppressing the excitement in his heart, the middle-aged team leader stood up from his seat as his brain began working overtime. “This is a wonderful breakthrough! We can use this to our advantage to break out of our current passive situation! We must seize this opportunity!”

“Do you want to make contact with Target C?”

“No, that’s too crude of a move.”

Resting his hands on his back, the middle-aged team leader paced around the room twice before decisively saying, “I’m returning to China immediately. You’ll take my place in the meeting in the Observer Conference Hall tomorrow. Let Little Song make the necessary arrangements.”

“Understood. I’ll contact Secretary Song now.”

“Afterward, notify staff teams one, two, and four and have them make appointments with the Public Security University and Beijing University’s professors in the fields of psychology, society, education, psychoanalysis, etc. Have these people gather and meet me at headquarters. The entire process must be conducted at the highest level of confidentiality. Also, report this matter to the higher-ups and request for additional resource and information support.”

“Understood. Leader, are we going to ‘cultivate’ Target C?”

“Mhm.” Nodding, the team leader said, “Optimize the internet content of her phone and replace some of her school’s leaders, teachers, and students. We’ll create a partially-enclosed environment that is filled with patriotism, friendliness, fairness, and peace for Chen Yike and subtly infect and modify her personality.”

“Constructing a small society for Chen Yike will be a long and meticulous job.”

“It is meticulous, but it won’t take long.” Returning back to his seat, the middle-aged team leader began writing a letter rapidly. “It is easy to manipulate the thoughts of middle school students. If the plan is implemented smoothly, it will take, at most, three or four months for her character and personality to match our ideals.”

“Such as being patriotic, rational, knowledge-seeking, and dedicated,” Big Sis Wu said.

“Yes. We can then influence Chen Yu through Chen Yike. According to our understanding of Chen Yu’s psychological portrait, while it might be difficult to affect his personality and ideals, it is still possible to make small adjustments to his tendencies. This is also the only way we can hope to influence Chen Yu now. The technology and strength he currently wields have already reached an overwhelming level.”

“Understood. I’ll get it done right away.”

“Hold on!” Handing a sealed letter to Big Sis Wu, the middle-aged team leader said, “This is my signed authorization letter. Encrypt it by fax and deliver it to the Ministry of National Security. Ask for their agents to install some bugs in the equipment Chen Yike purchased. The bugs installed should be crude; maintain Huaqiangbei[2] standards so that Chen Yu doesn’t suspect anything even after discovering them.”

“Yes, sir.”

...

While Chen Yike and the special situation team worked together to plot against Chen Yu, Chen Yu remained wholly ignorant of the matter as he laid on the living room sofa while admiring his little sister jumping up and down before him.

“Brother! Where did you hide my phone?!” Chen Erke yelled, tears welling up in her eyes as she stamped her feet on the ground.

“I already said I don’t know.” Shrugging, Chen Yu said lazily, “Look for it yourself.”

He had severely exhausted his stamina during his tour around the solar system, so he did not wish to move even a single muscle now.

“You must’ve hidden it!” After searching the living room a few more times and coming up empty-handed, Chen Erke pounced toward the sofa angrily, wiping her tears and snot onto Chen Yu’s body.

“Crap, can you not be so disgusting?”

“Return my phone!”

“Don’t touch me! I didn’t take your phone!”

“I already finished my homework! Give it to me!”

“Finished my ass! The first thing you did after returning home was to look for your phone. I never saw you touching your pen.”

“I finished it at school.”

“Whatever. In any case, I don’t have your phone. However, if you behave now, your phone might automatically appear.”

“Argh!” All of a sudden, Chen Erke held her head and fell to the ground in an exaggerated manner. “I have a fever. I can’t... I’m dying...”

“Heh.” Sneering, Chen Yu said, “Don’t think I’ll be fooled twice by the same move.”

“Is Big Sis having a fever?” At this time, the master bedroom’s door opened, and Chen Sanke staggered out of the room. While holding two pieces of bread in her hand, she said excitedly, “We can toast bread again!”

“Third Eldest! Go to hell!”

“You scolded me.” Chen Sanke’s smile instantly vanished.

“I’ll even beat you if I have to!” Chen Erke said as she took on a taekwondo posture. However, although she said those words to Chen Sanke, her eyes were slanted in Chen Yu’s direction. “Don’t provoke me. I am no longer an ordinary expert. One punch from me, and you might—ah!”

As Chen Erke had focused too much of her attention on Chen Yu, she failed to see Chen Sanke rushing up to her. As a result, she ended up eating a flying kick and falling to the ground.

“Nice! Beautifully done!” Chen Yu cheered. “Second Eldest, fight back quickly! Use your Rocket Head Mallet!”

“Wahh!” Chen Erke immediately broke into tears. She then got up from the ground and began fighting with her six-year-old little sister.

“Third Eldest! Use your Monstrous Strength Arts! Super Evolution!” Chen Yu cheered while stealthily grabbing the yogurt drink Chen Sanke had hidden under the coffee table. After emptying the bottle, he tossed it onto Chen Erke’s bed. He then leaned back against the sofa and enjoyed the show before him.

“What a peaceful, warm, and happy family.

“Hic—”
