Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Plastic Brotherhood; A Change at the Top of the Leaderboard

Gu Xiyue heard Jiang Qi’s question, but she ignored him, her fingers continuing to tap on the keyboard without pause.

"Boss, I..."

"Jiang Qi, don’t bother the boss, she’s busy," a Lolita Voice cut off Jiang Qi.

Gu Xiyue had a cell phone by her side, the screen glowing with the voice call interface, from which the Lolita Voice emanated.

"You pester the boss because you suck, and you think I’m noisy?" Jiang Qi was already feeling irritated and restless from boredom, and upon hearing Fall’s words, he got slightly annoyed and snapped back.

Fall was taken aback for a couple of seconds.

And then exploded.

"I suck?!"

"You think you’re so great?"

"If you’re so great, how come you ended up in the hospital? And had your Ancient Martial Arts skills crippled?"

Fall could take being called useless by someone more skilled than him but absolutely refused to let Jiang Qi, a dog who couldn’t even code, call him useless.

Jiang Qi "..."

After a brief silence, Jiang Qi spoke again, "Fall, are you intentionally poking at my wound, you think you’re so amazing..."

The two of them, over the phone, started jabbing at each other word for word.

Bromance as brittle as plastic; that’s just how fragile it was.

"Shut up." Gu Xiyue’s temples throbbed from the noise, and she spoke up coldly.

Instantly, the hospital room and the other end of the phone immediately fell silent.

Gu Xiyue’s hands continued to move, the tapping of the keyboard formed a continuous rhythm, echoing clearly in the quiet hospital room.

One minute later.

The tapping from the keyboard ceased.

Gu Xiyue stopped her movements, her brows tinged with a trace of irritability and gravity.

"Boss, is it over?" As soon as the sound of the keyboard stopped, the Lolita Voice spoke up from the cell phone once again.

"It’s over." Gu Xiyue leaned back on the couch, exhaling a long breath of frustration, her gaze coldly fixed on the screen, her eyes dark and inscrutable.

The computer screen was occupied by a cartoon whale outlined in bold lines, conspicuously grabbing attention.

This was the adversary’s signature icon left behind as a calling card.

Besides having unique handles, some hackers also have their own signature icons.

After every intrusion, they’d leave behind their signature icon, for the purposes of showing off, provoking, erasing tracks, and so on.

On the list of top hackers, Gu Xiyue had crossed paths with all but the second-ranked one and had seen their signature icons.

But this cartoon whale icon, she was seeing it for the first time.

"Did you find out who the other party is? Is it Angel and their crew again?" the Lolita Voice asked with a hint of interest, confident that Gu Xiyue would have identified the adversary.

"No." Gu Xiyue responded coldly, her gaze still not shifting from the icon.

"Hmm? Then who is it?" The interest in the Lolita Voice grew even stronger.

"I’m not sure who it is yet, but what I do know is, your position is no longer secure," Gu Xiyue replied in an even tone.

Not only was Fall’s position in jeopardy, but hers was at risk as well.

"...what... what? Boss, you lost too?" The Lolita Voice was evidently confused, disbelief filling her tone.

"I lost," Gu Xiyue replied flatly.

At Gu Xiyue’s words, not only was Fall stunned, but even Jiang Qi, lying on the hospital bed, was shocked.

The boss lost?

In their eyes, the boss had never lost before.

But now, the boss was actually admitting she lost?!

"Boss, you... you’re joking, right?" Fall, full of disbelief, stuttered.

"Do I sound like I’m joking?" Gu Xiyue retorted indifferently.

Fall "...like."

To stay so calm even after a loss, he was seeing it for the first time.
