Watching the "Red Light, Green Light" trio gearing up to stir trouble again, trying to get the internet café customers to back them up, Li Xiaohui sneered coldly. Maybe it was because she had been around Liu Yutong for so long, but she wasn’t so reckless anymore.
“If you want proof, then I’ll give you proof.”
She turned to Xiao Bin, who was standing behind her. “Xiao Bin, find the evidence.”
Earlier, when she left the company, she had just run into Xiao Bin in the elevator. Remembering that he was skilled with computers, had dabbled in hacking, and even wrote game cheats, she called him over immediately.
Now was the perfect time to put his skills to use.
The faces of the "Red Light, Green Light" trio visibly changed when they saw Xiao Bin.
In the university district, Xiao Bin had quite a reputation. Before the Wanlong Society even appeared, he was already one of the three big shots around campus.
Many small-time thugs knew him.
What surprised them even more was that this big shot from the College of Technology was now working with the Wanlong Society—and it seemed like he was even subordinate to this little girl who liked to wear a purple wig.
Xiao Bin stepped forward and said, “Which machines were you just using? I’ll go check them out.”
Yellow Hair Man felt a sudden chill but forced himself to sound tough. “Why? You want to destroy the evidence? I’ve already taken photos of my login records and antivirus warnings. You won’t be able to deny it!”
Xiao Bin replied calmly, “Why so worked up? Don’t worry, I’m not here to destroy evidence. I’m here to find it. If it really was our machines that caused you to lose accounts worth tens of thousands, the Wanlong Society will definitely compensate you.”
Li Xiaohui grew impatient. “Why waste time arguing with them? Which machines did they use?”
She turned to ask the internet café attendant.
The attendant quickly answered, “Number 9, 12, and 26.”
Xiao Bin nodded and headed straight for those machines.
The "Red Light, Green Light" trio wanted to stop him but couldn’t. After all, those black-clad men just standing there were not to be trifled with.
Didn’t they see that dozens of people in the café—including some with a bit of clout—were all frozen in place, too intimidated to move?
Xiao Bin’s skills were undeniable.
He sat down and immediately started working, checking every process, startup item, and network connection on each machine…
A crowd gathered around, sneaking glances at the screen, eager to see how he would uncover the evidence.
Unfortunately, the screen was filled with rapidly scrolling command lines and code—just gibberish to them.
Yellow Hair Man, who knew a little bit, broke out in a cold sweat watching Xiao Bin’s operation.
He recalled some rumors about this big shot from the College of Technology—that he made a living writing game cheats.
Now, it seemed their little tricks really wouldn’t stay hidden.
Sure enough.
Only a few minutes passed.
Xiao Bin called Yellow Hair Man over.
“You said your account is worth tens of thousands. Which game? Character name, server, login IP? And your antivirus screenshots—please show me those too.”
Yellow Hair Man stammered nervously, “I… I mean AU, the server… East China Zone 1! The character’s name… is… ‘Falling in Love with Me Has No Future.’ The screenshot… the screenshot is on my phone…”
As he spoke, he fumbled at his phone, though it was clearly in his pocket. It was as if his hands had eyes but were completely blind.
Xiao Bin saw through his act in an instant. “I’m guessing you lost your phone, didn’t you?”
Yellow Hair Man reflexively replied, “Y-yeah, lost it… don’t know where it went.”
Xiao Bin chuckled, “Whether you have a phone or not makes no difference. Just now, while I was checking machine number 12, I found something suspicious—a third-party antivirus software had been installed, but its process signature was forged. Shortly after this software started running, the internet café experienced a blue screen crash. The most important part is, I traced its startup source back to an autorun record from a USB drive.”
“Although the machine just rebooted and the system restored part of its state, I still managed to find these leftover traces.”
Li Xiaohui had been confused until she heard “USB drive,” then she immediately reacted. “A USB drive? Xiao Bin, are you saying someone just plugged a USB drive into this machine?”
Yellow Hair Man’s face instantly turned pale. “N-no! Don’t slander me!”
Seeing his reaction, Li Xiaohui didn’t hesitate. “Guards, search them!”
In an instant, a group of men dressed in black swarmed in and restrained them.
One of them reached directly into Yellow Hair Man’s pants pocket and, sure enough, pulled out a black USB drive.
Xiao Bin took the USB drive and immediately ordered one of the black-clad men, “Bring a clean laptop over here. I want to isolate and inspect this USB drive.”
“Yes, sir!” The man responded and quickly returned with a laptop.
Xiao Bin plugged the USB drive into the laptop.
Just as expected.
The antivirus software immediately blared a piercing alarm, warning that the USB contained multiple high-risk Trojan programs—among them a keylogger disguised as antivirus software.
The evidence was irrefutable!
Yellow Hair Man and the other two were now caught red-handed, their faces ashen, collapsing to the ground in defeat.
Li Xiaohui watched their reactions, her chin practically raised to the sky, as if she could write in giant letters across her face: [Look how awesome I am].
After all, under her brilliant leadership, the case was cracked in minutes—how could she not feel proud?
Then, turning to the customers in the hall, she placed her hands on her hips and said triumphantly, “Ha ha ha… Everyone saw that, right? Thanks to this auntie’s wise leadership, the truth is finally out!”
“It’s these little punks who brought the virus USB to cause trouble, trying to frame our Huangquan eSports as a shady place. Pfft! You must be blind!”
Her anger rising, she couldn’t resist kicking Yellow Hair Man.
“Hmph! Playing such dirty tricks without even bothering to find out who this auntie is?!”
She then looked back at the customers.
“Today’s incident scared everyone! It’s because this auntie didn’t manage things well enough that these filthy rats sneaked in and grossed everyone out!”
“To calm everyone’s nerves—and to celebrate this auntie’s brilliant and mighty feat of instantly unmasking the real culprit—everyone here, without exception, gets free internet access! Feel free to play all night long; Auntie’s got you covered!”
“And on top of that… hmm… right, we’re throwing in an extra gift: a cup of our internet café’s signature milk tea, ‘Boyan Juexian.’ One for each person!”
The moment she finished speaking, the previously anxious customers all widened their eyes, hardly daring to believe what they’d just heard.
Did they really hear that right?
These tough-looking guys in black not only weren’t going to cause them any trouble—they were giving them free internet access and free milk tea?
This… this was just too good to be true!
Originally, they had been bracing themselves to just avoid being mistaken for troublemakers and getting beaten up by these black-clad men.
Some were even ready to pay up as an apology since a few of them had indeed spoken a bit loudly to the staff.
But now…
Well, in this shocking turnaround that felt like surviving a disaster, they suddenly felt that Huangquan Esports really was something special!
There was still some humanity left here!
Those customers who had been so scared their legs went weak now brightened up instantly, erupting into cheers.
“Damn, Sister Hui is awesome!”
“So generous! Sister Hui is too generous!”
“Sister Hui is mighty!”
“Long live the Wanlong Society!”
“……”
Li Xiaohui listened to all those ‘Sister Hui’ praises and felt utterly satisfied—better than drinking an ice-cold soda on the hottest summer day.
Meanwhile, the internet café staff were utterly confused.
“Sister Hui, what’s ‘Boyan Juexian’? We don’t even sell milk tea here right now.”
Li Xiaohui said proudly, “Who says we don’t? Since I came, our place has milk tea.”
Then she leaned in mysteriously and shared the “special recipe” she had gotten from Liu Yutong.
After hearing it, the staff all stared in amazement.
“This isn’t a scam… ah, no, Sister Hui is brilliant! This ‘Boyan Juexian’ is definitely going to be delicious and will surely be a huge hit in the future!”
