Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looked like they had been tainted.
Jiang Baimian exhaled and pulled the topic back on track. “I’ll go home later to investigate Mu Qingqing’s father’s death.”
Bai Chen frowned. “Will this be dangerous? After what happened last time, will the Life Ritual parish recruit a batch of believers to the Internet Surveillance Department?”
As someone who could only use the Internet in the office, she didn’t know which department was in charge of such matters.
“If the Life Ritual parish really has a New World powerhouse in the company, they can control electromagnetism and directly hack into the network.” Shang Jianyao revealed an expression that was usually used to threaten Long Yuehong. “Wu Meng can do it.”
Jiang Baimian replied in amusement, “The company still has a certain level of network security. Even if Wu Meng comes, he won’t be able to hack into it easily unless he has hacking knowledge and abilities. Besides, how can New World powerhouses stay in reality and monitor the company’s network all the time?”
With that said, Jiang Baimian nodded slightly. “However, we do need to pay attention. The Life Ritual parish used to control cameras, so they might be able to monitor the Internet now.”
She then laughed. “Don’t worry. The last time we investigated the Life Ritual parish, the relevant departments pulled out a list of people who had died from cardiac causes in the past decade and did a certain level of investigation. I later got a copy on my home computer using my connections.
“Although I’m not sure why they don’t think there’s anything wrong with Mu Qingqing’s father’s death, this doesn’t stop me from doing another check. Heh heh, I’ll disconnect my Internet when reading.”
“Be careful.” Bai Chen nodded.
Just as she said that, Shang Jianyao slapped his thigh. “I forgot something!”
“What?” Everyone became nervous, wondering if Shang Jianyao had previously discovered a more direct clue. However, they didn’t think in the direction of the Life Ritual parish.
Shang Jianyao sighed. “Didn’t Director Su get me to organize information on the newly explored rooms? I forgot.”
Impressive. You don’t even take a director’s words seriously… Long Yuehong didn’t know whether to give Shang Jianyao a thumbs up or shun him.
“Then, organize it later.” Jiang Baimian was accustomed to Shang Jianyao’s jumpy train of thought.
Shang Jianyao nodded. “I’ll request the reward after submission to be the installation of a phone in my room.”
“Why do you want to install a phone?” Jiang Baimian asked in confusion.
Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were confused.
Shang Jianyao seriously answered Jiang Baimian’s question. “This way, you can call me when you are disconnected from the Internet to read the information. I’ll use my electromagnetic interference to help you guard against any accidents.”
You… came back to the topic? Jiang Baimian was a little stunned.
Long Yuehong thought for a moment and said to Shang Jianyao, “I think the company might directly switch you to a room with a telephone.”
Shang Jianyao was important enough.
“No!” Shang Jianyao firmly rejected it. “We haven’t succeeded in saving all of humanity. How can we switch for a better room?”
The office fell silent.
After a few seconds, Jiang Baimian pinched her cheek. “Actually, there’s no need to go through so much trouble. We have a phone in our office; you can stay here until lights out.”
“That’s right!” Shang Jianyao had a ‘you’re really smart’ expression.
At this moment, Long Yuehong thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t we report it directly?”
Jiang Baimian exhaled silently. “There might be people from the Life Ritual parish hiding above. If we can’t ‘determine’ the clues in advance, it’s very likely that they will destroy them, just like the Surveillance Department’s PIC—who committed suicide previously.”
“Okay.” Long Yuehong and Bai Chen nodded.
Jiang Baimian then said, “Oh right, the rewards should be distributed tomorrow.”
Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen’s eyes more or less lit up.
…
Jiang Baimian returned home on the 349th floor, Zone C, Room 12. After greeting her parents, she slipped into the study.
She switched on the computer, entered the corresponding drive, and disconnected from the Internet.. After hesitating for a moment, she picked up the phone in the room and dialed a number
