202 Strongest Hackers
The two drove a motorcycle covered in ashes and drove past the streets of Brooklyn in the heavy rain. Passers-by stood motionless in the rain, their eyes dull and without focus, just like statues made by clumsy artists.
Lin Chi has to say that this is the npc in "War Paradise", which is closest to the "mentally retarded npc" moment in other games.
These passers-by who were originally energetic and different, seemed to have lost their souls at this time, completely losing the clever feeling she used to be.
——So, was the one who died in the fire just now, set up NPC or the independent Ai with self-will?
When Lin Chi thought of this problem, he suddenly sank in his heart. Although it means that he knows that "War Paradise" is just a game, even if he kills people in the street, there will be no problems. But...
What just happened was not a small-scale killing, but a massacre with more than three million deaths!
It would be fine if the dead were those brainless NPCs that only had a few repeated lines and kept performing ghost-and-animal cycles. But the one who died in the fire just now was not that kind of character. It was the "virtual world residents" who seemed to be indifferent to humans.
"What's going on with this game...?"
Lin Chi narrowed his eyes and reached out to push away the bangs that were wet from the rain and stuck to his forehead.
"What's wrong?" Crazy Evan's puzzled voice came from behind: "Aren't you going to find that person?"
"It's okay." Lin Chi shook his head: "It's just a headache."
While speaking, he had arrived at the marked location on the map.
Lin Chi parked his motorcycle next to the dirty street and walked straight to an old-looking apartment on the street.
Unlike the location of my safe house, this block should be a typical slum. Although it is better than the living environment in the sewer, it is not much better.
The building made of broken plastic panels in front of me seems to be completely in line with the building level of 2050. With a few large holes of white roofs, it is obviously unable to shelter the residents inside, and the dilapidated walls and doors also seem to be knocked down with just one push.
Lin Chi stood in front of the door and immediately found that the door was not locked, but was hidden. Before opening the door, he used his electronic eye to contact him, the only hero-level npc who was brought to his position in this game:
"Are you there?"
Unlike before, No. 7 did not respond. After waiting for a minute, Lin Chi sent another message:
"I'm going to open the door."
Then, Lin Chi slowly pushed open the creaking front door of the old house and walked into the dark corridor.
The living room of the apartment is like a garbage dump soaked in water, emitting a foul smell, which is not suitable for human habitation at all.
He turned his eyes to his feet and soon found the wooden door leading to the basement at the end of the corridor.
Leaving Crazy Evan to guard the door, Lin Chi opened the wooden door, walked down the dark and damp stairs, opened the night vision mode of the electronic eye, and observed the situation below.
Before entering the basement, a rotten smell came to my face. After walking down the steps, what caught my eye was the cold and wet basement and the moss on the walls.
On the left hand side of the entrance, a large processor shaped like a bookcase was displayed. At this time, sparks were crackling, and it was obviously destroyed in the AI battle just now.
Lin Chi turned his gaze to the right and immediately found his goal in the corner of the wall:
The hacker who was once ranked seventh on the highest wanted blacklist was sitting in the corner of the basement with his knees in his hands, surrounded by dirty water.
The costume on this person is still the pullover and shorts I used to meet Lin Chi last time. But unlike last time, No. 7 completely lost the mysterious and powerful aura that was before.
Now "he" is just a lonely child.
“Meet again.”
Lin Chi said as he squatted down in front of No. 7, staring at the shadow under the hood of the other person's pullover shirt, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious:
"You are the sister of Kevin, the 'King of Hackers'."
No. 7 did not answer, but just looked up at Lin Chi, with a white chin and scarlet scars on his mouth faintly exposed below the hood.
Seeing that the other party was not going to answer, Lin Chi smiled and slowly spoke out the information he had:
"Kevin was just an unemployed vagrant. Although he could use computers, he didn't even have the ability to crack the private computers of the old lady on the street. It was actually you who made him a world-renowned hacker idol."
No. 7 continued to remain silent.
"After taking your several shocking actions on your head, Kevin became famous in the hacking world. But he did not have the ability to match his identity, so he was easily caught."
Speaking of this, Lin Chi paused meaningfully for a moment: "And the reason you came to New York is actually for..."
"I want to save him."
Number seven finally spoke, with a firm voice: "It's not like you think, Kevin is actually a good person."
"Even if he uses your deeds to show off, he will bring a hundred hackers to New York before his death?" Lin Chi asked in a low voice.
"He did this to make me happy, you won't understand." No. 7 shook his head: "Do you have anything else? If you have nothing to do, please leave my house."
Lin Chi could see that after a series of "suffocating operations" just now, if No. 7 had a favorable impression, it would have dropped to a negative number now.
However, the next point is:
"I know, although you came to save Kevin, you were a little hesitant, so you came late."
Lin Chi's voice kept echoing in the wet basement, and every sentence was like a sledgehammer, hitting the other party's heart hard: "You actually don't know? Kevin's real purpose was hidden by him in a private diary document. And that document is currently in my hands."
After Lin Chi spoke, No. 7 was silent for a moment and finally said something: "Don't think of lying to me, there is nothing in this world that I can't find."
Seeing that the other party didn't believe his words, Lin Chi smiled, opened the encrypted document in the electronic eyes, and read the first sentence:
"Dear d.w, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth."
As soon as these words came out, No. 7's breathing suddenly became rapid. Obviously, this d.w should be a certain private name that only the brother and sister can use.
"You...are you..."
Realizing that Lin Chi was really in control of the secret documents he had not seen, No. 7's voice began to tremble, and asked in a hurry: "What else do you know? Tell me!"
Lin Chi did not continue reading, but took out a small computer from his pocket and created a projection of the document on the damp walls of the basement.
No. 7 suddenly turned around and looked at the document content in black and white on the wall. The thin shoulders wrapped in a pullover began to tremble slightly:
Dear d.w, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth, because it really doesn't fit my style to tell it. But you can't see it anyway, so I'll write it here.
I know that you have always been very unconfident because of your appearance. Even if you have strong abilities, you are always depressed.
In fact, you don’t have to be so inferior. The "big things" you do in your spare time can already be recorded in history?
I know you are very angry because of what I did, but I just want to prove that you are not as useless as you said. If you can officially "debut", the person who will reach the peak of the hacking world will only be you and not me.
Something is wrong recently. The police seem to be eyeing me. I might be looking for a place to hide, after all, the "big moves" you did may cause me to be killed. But...
Even if I die and are nailed into the coffin, I will shout with my decaying vocal cords: My sister is invincible in the world!
——Love your k.w.
After reading the content of the document, No. 7 turned around tremblingly, and almost fell down when he slipped under his feet. The hood on his head also fell down, revealing his neat short hair, extremely clear green pupils, and two shocking dark red scars on his originally delicate face.
"I was caught in a fire when I was a kid. I have never shown my face since then and I have been hiding at home and surfing the Internet."
The girl's voice was still low, but she had a hint of sob: "That useless idiot, I have always wanted to make me happy. I always scolded him, after all, he is indeed too stupid..."
"Ha, maybe that's the case."
Staring at the girl's originally delicate but disfigured face, Lin Chi nodded seriously:
"Although I am not your brother, I and him agree on a certain issue - you are indeed the most powerful hacker in the world."
"So now, do you want to create a new history with me?"
Hearing this, the girl was silent for a moment, and a shallow smile appeared on her scarred little face for the first time:
Chapter completed!
