Yan Ruo was in the control room. The people from the production team served him tea, flattering him but also feeling guilty.
Quicksand Mercenary had set up a trap in this place openly, and all the guests’ lives were threatened. The production team had to bear a large part of the responsibility.
On the surface, Yan Ruo was an award-winning actor, but the director and the people in the production team all knew that he was inextricably linked to Huan Yu Group, who had invested in them.
Yan Ruo ma.s.saged his fingers. He had been the one to repair the system just now with the others a.s.sisting him. He had the most work to do, and his fingers were numb from typing on the keyboard.
The light from the screen shone on his face, reflecting his handsome face. His lips were thin and red, making him seem a little too aloof.
The director rubbed his hands at the side and stuttered, “Well, Yan-ge, this is an accident, but fortunately, you and Bai Lin cooperated well and there were no casualties… I really don’t know how to express my guilt.”
“It’s none of your business.”
Yan Ruo tilted his head slightly. A tall man in a suit walked over and bowed respectfully.
“Find out where they got their equipment. Contact Yan-5 and ask him to investigate the technical staff who were fired. I need to know who leaked the code for H336. Come to me after you’ve figured it out,” Yan Ruo said unhurriedly.
Yan Ruo did not look angry, but everyone else in the room kept quiet out of fear. Yan-3 was more nervous than usual.
“I understand, President Yan,” he nodded and said seriously.
When Yan-3 was about to leave for his task, he saw a beautiful woman leaning against the door frame. She said with a faint smile, “President Yan?”
Bai Lin’s voice was special. It was clear and crisp, but when she spoke, the end of her voice seemed to have a little hook, which stiffened Yan Ruo for a moment.
Yan Ruo’s back was facing Bai Lin, and the awkwardness only lasted for a second. He then stood up and faced Bai Lin with a calm expression. “It’s just a form of address I use to joke with my friends. There’s nothing special about it.”
He turned to look at Yan-3. “Right?”
Yan-3 and Yan Ruo’s cooperation was flawless. “Yeah.”
Bai Lin walked forward and sat down where Yan Ruo had been before. She began to operate the keyboard with familiarity.
The production team’s computers had full authority over the entire system. Bai
Lin did not even need to ask Yan Ruo for the key. The system’s framework and various data were presented to her.
A large string of characters and numbers that were enough to make one’s eyes dizzy flashed in front of her eyes. Bai Lin looked at them quickly and attentively.
The top system of Huan Yu Technology was simply on display to an outsider?
The director blinked at Yan-3. He was worried and nervous.
Yan-3 saw that Yan Ruo had no intention of stopping her, so he gave the director a look that said, “Don’t meddle in the affairs of the couple.”
Something that felt dizzy to others at a glance gradually formed a precise and complex structure in Bai Lin’s mind. Every string of code was extremely closely connected. In addition to the best commonly used codes, there were many new types of code that she had never seen before.
Bai Lin looked at it for two minutes and had an idea of what was going on. She turned to Yan Ruo and confirmed, “It’s you, right?”
Even the technical staff of the production team could not repair the system that had been taken over, but Yan Ruo could—and it only took him 15 minutes.
If it was the little genius with an IQof 190 in her group doing it, it would take about the same time.
Although there was no relationship between martial arts skills and computer skills, Bai Lin had an intuition that the person who had been fighting the wolf pack with her and helping her in secret was him.
Yan Ruo’s eyes were filled with confusion. “What?”
Bai Lin stared at him and smiled thoughtfully. “Nothing. Are you going to eat?”
Everyone had their own secrets. There was no need to force him if he was unwilling to admit it.
It was enough that she knew.
Bai Lin and Yan Ruo arrived at the cafeteria. Zhou Guang and Jin Ran were still recovering in the medical department due to their heavy injuries. The two of them were planning to visit them after eating.
“Lin-jie!”
Fan Feng called out to Bai Lin from a distance. He immediately stood up from his seat and quickly ran to Bai Lin’s side.
He looked at Bai Lin nervously. “Lin-jie, how are you feeling?”
After the crisis was over, the program’s recording ended. The production team returned all the confiscated items to them, including their phones.
He saw the video of Bai Lin’s murder that was going viral on the internet and had not stopped circulating.
It was after they were brought to the first floor..
