Chapter 203 Hacker
Eric decided to find out who this "black hand" was!
If it was the work of an "external thief," then their skills must be quite remarkable, leaving no clues and difficult to trace. If it was the work of an "internal traitor," it would be difficult to investigate among the five to six hundred people in the headquarters.
Therefore, Eric decided to use the "Art of Star Insight" to determine the thief.
The Art of Star Insight. It can not only be used for "prophecy" but also to inspect the "present" and even trace the "past."
However, performing the Art of Star Insight requires possessing a "calm and pure" mind! Even with Eric's abilities, achieving this state of mind would require three days of self-hypnosis!
Of course, before that, Eric acted as the chairman of the group and issued an order to dismiss the director of the Information Department, who was in charge of the information database.
Although he knew that this director's loyalty to Ling Yan Group was beyond doubt, in order to deceive a possible "internal traitor," he had to do this, even without informing the person involved. Watching the departing figure of the director of the Information Department from the Ling Yan Building, Eric also felt uneasy!
"Liu Uncle, I brought a black dog. Today, the two of us will cook some meat and have a drink!" Gu Hui opened the door with a key, shouting loudly as he changed his shoes, holding up a black plastic bag in his hand, "One black, two yellow, three spotted, four white. This little black dog took me quite some effort to catch..."
To his surprise, there was no response from inside the house. What was going on? Normally, when he said such things, Uncle Liu would come out smiling and take the dog meat to the kitchen!
With a puzzled look, Gu Hui sniffed a strong smell of alcohol. He frowned slightly because he knew that although Uncle Liu enjoyed a drink, he was not a heavy drinker...
Hastily, Gu Hui walked a few steps to the bedroom. What he saw astonished him.
His Uncle Liu. The middle-aged "handsome man" who cared so much about his appearance, was now lying on the floor snoring loudly, with vomit around his mouth and chest. Around him were seven or eight white wine bottles, two of which were empty, and one had fallen to the ground, spilling its contents on the floor.
Concerned, Gu Hui did not hesitate. He put down the dog meat and got busy. He took off Uncle Liu's dirty clothes, moved him to the bed, and then cleaned up the bottles and the room.
When Gu Hui finished, Uncle Liu also woke up, holding his head and groaning. Gu Hui immediately poured a glass of water and handed it over.
"Gu Hui, you're here!" Uncle Liu, seeing Gu Hui, was not surprised. After looking around the room, he smiled and said, "Did you tidy up this room? Thank you so much..."
"Uncle Liu, what are you talking about?" Gu Hui said, somewhat displeased. "Do we need to be so formal between us?"
Indeed, the relationship between Uncle Liu and Gu Hui was not that of father and son, but it was even closer than that!
Uncle Liu had a happy and fulfilling family, but a sudden car accident ten years ago took away his beloved wife and their son, who was not yet six years old. During that time, he was in a daze, until he met Gu Hui...
Gu Hui was an orphan who left the orphanage at the age of eight and wandered the world, making a living by picking up and selling scrap. One day, he "picked up" the unconscious Uncle Liu, who was suffering from a cold and had a high fever.
Perhaps it was fate, or perhaps it was his inherent kindness, but Gu Hui exerted great effort to get the unconscious Uncle Liu to the hospital. According to the doctor, if it had been a few hours later, even if Uncle Liu had not died, he would have suffered severe consequences!
During the days when Uncle Liu was receiving treatment, all the expenses were accumulated by Gu Hui bit by bit, because when Uncle Liu was found, he had no money on him, and it was likely that his wallet containing his documents had been stolen by some unscrupulous person...
However, Uncle Liu did not express gratitude to Gu Hui after waking up. Instead, he blamed him for interfering in his reunion with his wife and son. It was strange that even though Gu Hui was only eleven or twelve years old at the time, he did not get angry. He just treated Uncle Liu's story as a "story" since he understood that Uncle Liu was in a difficult situation.
In this way, the two became close friends. Uncle Liu, who regained hope in life, even wanted to adopt Gu Hui, but he was rejected. Knowing Gu Hui's temper, Uncle Liu did not insist, but forced Gu Hui to go to school. Gu Hui did not oppose this, and he did not refuse the "education allowance" given to him by Uncle Liu...
Seeing Uncle Liu's desolate expression, Gu Hui couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Liu, what's wrong? You seem to have been drunk all day! Didn't you go to work during the day?"
"Why?" Gu Hui asked in confusion. "Don't you often say that besides your wife and son in heaven, and me, the person you value most in these three realms is your work?"
Uncle Liu shook his head, almost crying, and explained the situation of the company's confidential information being inexplicably leaked, leading to his dismissal.
After listening, Gu Hui was indignant. "How could the chairman of your company make such a hasty decision? This is clearly fishy."
Affected by Eric's "loyalty magic," Uncle Liu immediately spoke well of his "employer." "Gu Hui, this has nothing to do with our chairman; it's me, Liu, who is useless..."
"Uncle Liu, don't say that! I'll help you solve this!"
"Gu Hui, don't act recklessly..."
"Don't worry..."
Using some means, Gu Hui sneaked into the elevator that led directly to the chairman's office, speculating in his mind what kind of person Uncle Liu's chairman would be—kind? Strict? Aloof? Cunning? Reasonable or unreasonable?
While he pondered, the elevator reached the top floor, and with a melodious sound, two steel doors opened.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Hui looked up and saw a more luxurious and spacious office than he had imagined. Although he had expected the office of a chairman of a prestigious group to be far from simple, he was still taken aback by the advanced facilities and luxurious decorations, which were somewhat intimidating. Was this really just a billion-dollar company?
Indeed, it was no wonder Gu Hui was impressed. The facilities and decorations in this office, dedicated to Eric, were so extravagant that they were beyond belief. Everything within sight, from the state-of-the-art technology to the various antique artifacts, could buy Ling Yan Group itself!
Naturally, this was not something Ling Yan Group's financial resources could afford. It could even be said that there were very few people in the world who owned such an extremely luxurious office!
All these things, from various high-end furnishings to various antique artworks, were all tributes from Skidmore and other vampires!
What was in this office was only one percent of the "treasures." More "treasures" would be arranged in the mansion that would be completed soon!
Just as the elevator doors opened wide, the people working in the office looked at him with great surprise, and Gu Hui also noticed him.
He was a handsome young man who appeared to be only eighteen or nineteen years old. He was sitting behind the luxurious office desk in a well-tailored designer suit.
His long hair was styled in a fashionable and charming way, and a moment of surprise flashed across his fair face. It was the first time Gu Hui had looked so carefully at a boy, and he instinctively felt that his eyebrows and eyes, his lips and nose...
It could only be said that the beautiful young man in front of him was naturally endowed, like an angel. It was truly unbelievable that there could be such a "stunning" boy in the world.
Although Gu Hui always believed that men should be "cultured" and despised handsome and cool guys who only had looks, the angel-like beautiful boy in front of him made this absolutely "normal" man feel intoxicated for the first time, even regretting his own "common face" that could be found everywhere on the street.
Lost in thought, Gu Hui stared at the boy, almost forgetting to step out of the elevator and his purpose for coming here.
Meanwhile, Eric, sitting in the leather chair, looked at the short-haired boy who suddenly appeared in his office with a puzzled and astonished expression.
How did the people below manage to let a stranger enter the chairman's office so easily?
With such a security system, it's no wonder the company's secrets are being stolen! It seems that to control a company, it's not enough to just control the upper management and the business systems; the security system must also be in one's hands.
"The barrel of a gun leads to political power," it's time to overhaul the security department...
