Jiang Chen pressed on the screen and selected an overseas number before putting the phone back to his ear.
The call quickly connected.
"Yo, where are you now?"
"Frankberg," Xie Lei replied with a tone of "where else?"
"Orthopedics?" Jiang Chen joked.
Xie Lei paused for a moment.
Clearly, he didn't know about the "German orthopedics."
"No, I'm taking care of my sister at Ber Hospital. She just received treatment three days ago."
Jiang Chen was still paying attention to the situation of the siblings. After all, he was responsible for their living expenses. His blind sister was receiving treatment in Ber, but her brother wasn't idle either. After three months of military training in Niger, he was sent to Ber by Ivan. He studied computer science at the University of Ber while taking care of his sister.
"Is your sister better?" Jiang Chen asked nonchalantly.
"Much better. The doctor said her condition is a miracle. She can see again in at most two months … Thank you," Xie Lei said solemnly.
"You're welcome. Occasionally doing good deeds is good for the body and mind. Also, I got a loyal hacker to work for me, "Jiang Chen joked.
"That's right, my life is yours," Xie Lei said calmly.
"Okay, that's enough with the joke. Keep your life. I need you to do something for me. "
"Go ahead," Xie Lei said.
"Mhmm, here's the thing. Celestial Trade Corporation's server was installed with a backdoor. Although I can easily take it down, I want to know who installed the backdoor. There's only one piece of information, the IP of the information leak is pointing to Iceland. But even a computer illiterate person like me knows that's just a springboard. I need you to find out where the information was sent to. It's best if you can find out who the spy is. Can you do that? "Jiang Chen said.
"No problem." Xie Lei grinned as his face displayed the unique arrogance of a teenager.
He was one of the top three masters in the Han Hacker Alliance. After a long period of training, he was confident that his ability would only be stronger than before.
"Okay, you can be cocky after the mission is completed. Do you need a plane ticket?" Jiang Chen asked.
"No, I can work wherever there is internet. Give me the access to the server and don't alert the spy. "Xie Lei shook his head.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
After that, Jiang Chen hung up.
With a mischievous smile on his face, Jiang Chen sent a message to Ivan and ordered him to give the server access to Xie Lei in Ber.
Now, the game of cat and mouse had begun.
…
Ayesha was still in charge of cooking for lunch. Under Mrs. Jiang's enthusiastic guidance, her cooking skills improved tremendously. Xia Shiyu, who hadn't eaten her cooking for months, almost swallowed her tongue.
Seeing that Jiang Chen was looking at her with a strange look, Xia Shiyu paused for a moment before realizing that her table manners were a bit too much. Her pretty face couldn't help but blush, and her hand movements became more restrained.
Ayesha smiled at the two but didn't say anything. The blue eyes that could speak flickered with a light of interest.
After dinner, Ayesha carried the plates into the kitchen. At Xia Shiyu's request, Jiang Chen took her to the gym on the first floor.
In the corner of the gym was a simple server. Next to the server were two virtual helmets the size of motorcycle helmets. After seeing this thing, Xia Shiyu couldn't wait to put the helmet on her head.
However, after fumbling around on the helmet for a long time, she still couldn't find the switch of this thing.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile as he walked to her.
"How do I turn this thing on?" Xia Shiyu held the helmet with both hands as she asked helplessly.
"Don't be in a rush to turn it on. I suggest you find a comfortable place to sit or lie down first."
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Xia Shiyu asked hesitantly, "Will the virtual reality affect the body in the real world?"
"It won't. The body in the real world is equivalent to entering a deep sleep state. If you play while standing, you might fall down if you don't have a strong focus," Jiang Chen joked.
[So that's why.]
Xia Shiyu nodded, looked around, and walked to the recliner on the side.
Seeing that she was lying down, Jiang Chen reminded her.
"The switch is controlled by voice. Just say 'start' or 'star.'"
Xia Shiyu took a deep breath as she suppressed the excitement in her heart.
She was ready to witness this historical moment as she spoke with a clear voice.
"Start."
The previously dark screen instantly lit up.
Countless light particles surged in front of her. Xia Shiyu subconsciously shrunk back, but she quickly realized it was just a projection on the screen.
"I thought it would be the type that doesn't require a screen …" Xia Shiyu said with slight disappointment when she saw the interface on the screen.
But then she felt relieved. The miraculous technology to connect the mind to the virtual world was not that easy to conquer. To be able to do this, it was not bad.
"This is just the interface, the best is yet to come." But Jiang Chen's words ignited her anticipation.
With a skeptical attitude, Xia Shiyu wanted to say something, but a series of dialog boxes suddenly appeared on the screen in front of her. At the same time, a clear and standard system voice rang in her ears.
"Iris verification program activated …"
"Confirmed as a new user."
"Registering …"
"Genetic code logged in, please set the user's nickname."
Xia Shiyu blankly stared at the words in the middle of the screen as she slowly took a deep breath.
"Shiyu."
"User registration complete. Welcome, Miss Shiyu. This ID will be bound to your iris information. In principle, you cannot cancel or re-register. In the virtual world, your privacy will be kept absolutely confidential. I wish you a pleasant virtual journey. "
Xia Shiyu stared at the start icon in front of her as she tried to calm her racing heart.
"Start."
With the user's command, the image on the screen began to dim. Accompanied by the soothing sound effect, Xia Shiyu instantly felt an itch on the back of her neck like ants were crawling, and then her consciousness was stripped away from her body.
It felt like she was diving. Her five senses seemed to be covered by a thin layer of gauze, but soon, her five senses became clearer than ever.
"This is …"
Xia Shiyu blankly stared at her hand and then looked around.
Because she was too shocked, she forgot how to speak.
Yes, she didn't know how to express the shock in her heart.
In the milky white cube space, there was nothing here, but it was unprecedentedly full. The binary codes of 0 and 1 flashed on the wall, adding a sense of sci-fi to the room.
She stood in the middle of the cube and stared blankly at the panel that gradually appeared in front of her.
Reaching out, her fingertips touched the translucent panel.
A trace of coldness.
A layer of ripples spread from the point of her fingertips and rushed to the wall of the cube.
The wall shattered, and as if a window had been opened, a vivid and lifelike painting unfolded in front of her.
Endless paddy fields, towering mountains, giant sails that cut through the wind and waves, towering walls …
And now, she was standing on a hill.
