Yanyu quickly signaled Bai Linghua. Bai Linghua nodded and left the room. Yanyu looked around the room looking for any camera and really did found one each on 2 corners of the ceiling.
The man on the screen of course saw her action and smiled. Unfortunately, his face was covered by a mask, so they couldn't see how charming it was.
"Yes, I hacked those cameras," Lixue nonchalantly said, "It would be quite strange for me to speak without looking at the people I'm conversing with now, wouldn't it?"
He continued, "I'm not going to speak nonsense. Unfortunately for you, I'm not fond of telling you my schemes. But, looking at how pitiful the OPB is, I decided to give you guys some lead. It's not fun for the rat if the cat's whiskers can't even be seen, right?" He clapped his hands and stood up from his leather chair, "Why don't we play a game?"
"Game? What bullsh*t are you talking about you b*tch?" Pei Yang stood up with a bang to his desk and looked towards one of the cameras, "I'll hunt you down if you f*cking dare took a step into my turf. You think you can kill me that easily like those small fries you play around with?"
"Says the baby who has to be sat by those whom you called female dogs," Lixue ridiculed, "You'll be too busy taking care of your genitals to realize anyone coming in and out your playground."
"You son of a wh*re."
Lixue paused on his track. He took out a small button from his inner suit pocket and pressed it. An explosion suddenly blew up on the floor they were at. The whole floor shook and blacked out.
Yanyu quickly checked outside the room and saw almost the other half of the floor was blown up. Rubles and glasses crumbled down to the road, and she could see the floor below her. The Keepers below were shocked by the sudden explosive, but they managed to take shelter inside or ran away from where the rubles fell.
The holocomputer on Pei Yang's desk has its own power source, so it wasn't affected by the explosion. It turned on by itself and Lixue appeared again.
"Don't try my patience. I'm not even sure myself how short its fuse is. You piss me off again, I'll blow up your whole building with everyone in it."
Pei Yang clenched his jaw in anger. His veins popped out on his neck and forehead from his restrain, but he eventually managed to held it in.
"What do you want?" Yanyu finally stepped in.
"Like I said. We'll play a game," Lixue walked towards a spot behind his chair and the camera changed angle. He turned facing the lens of the new camera, "And you're all invited to join."
A call came into Yanyu's communicator from Bai Linghua, and she promptly picked it up, "Captain, quickly open StarNet! Frost hacked into every broadcasting channel!"
Yanyu opened the StarNet and chose any channel that was currently broadcasting. Sure enough, Frost's figure filled up the screen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you to participate in this game. I am Frost, and I will be your host for today. I have planted bombs inside Cardinal Group's main office building. As you know, OPB, the defender of justice, decided to implement the equality of human rights in law and protect their citizen even though they are criminals and residents of the underworld. How admirable!" Lixue applauded, "I, myself, hear your voices and answer your demand. I am giving you people a chance to act. Will you side with the 'heroes', or will you make these unclean criminals be punished rightfully?"
All around the Federation, Frost's voice resounded through the streets, offices, restaurants, wherever there was a screen or communicator. Not only at the capital planet, people on every planet under the Federation could watch Frost's 'game show'. His voice was alluring and had the ability to attract people's hearts. They all involuntarily listened to his every word.
The students in school became excited, the customers at the restaurants started discussing with their companions, the people in their office abandoned their work and paid full attention to what's about to come. Even from the huge scale hacking, nobody got panicked unless they belong to the unclean.
Of course, that was except for the OPB and the con faction in the government.
"First of all, let me introduce our special guest for today." a spotlight beamed on his side and the camera's angle moved.
Under the spotlight, a woman was tied up on a vertical metal table. Her arms were raised with metal rings locking her wrists and arms. Other metal rings were also on her neck, abdomen, thighs, and ankles. Her eyes were covered with a black cloth while her mouth was gagged.
"Oh my, oh my~ It is our one and only, Lady Kumi! For those in the dark, she is the gorgeous leader of Full Moon, one of the 2 sky lords. Isn't she a true beauty?" Lixue walked over beside the metal table, "You don't really think that only males are dominating the underworld, right? Women can also be fierce, even fiercer than men sometimes.
"Unfortunately for me, and fortunately for her, I don't have enough time to wipe out the whole Full Moon. So now, her people are definitely looking for their damsel in distress. Now, with all these situations I told you, I'll explain the game rules.
"One, if either OPB or Full Moon found me before the day ends, it is their win, and I will free Lady Kumi. Two, if you, ladies and gentlemen, who are watching this finish the task before either of them find me, I will listen to your request whether to free or to punish Lady Kumi and Full Moon. Three, if neither of you succeeds, I will, of course, kill Lady Kumi and annihilate the entire Full Moon.
"Now, for all of you who are watching this, your task is very simple. On the corner of this screen, there is a barcode that you can scan with your communicator. It will then direct you to download a game. All you have to do is defeat the boss in that game. It is a group task, and you will be matched with other players and make a team of five. For the team who manage to defeat the boss first, they will be given a prize exclusively from me, yours truly. Easy and fun, right? As for the bomb, they will detonate randomly starting from now, so good luck for our lovely Keepers.
"Well, that's it for the game instruction. I wish all the participants the best of luck."
Lixue waved to the camera and the broadcast ended there. All channels that were hacked returned back to the original show that was ongoing. When it returned, the people that were on air previously also just finished watching Frost's sudden 'game show'. Every news channel and TV program became heated up by Frost's sudden appearance and immediately fell into discussion both about him and his game.
But eventually, what they brought up the most was the fact that the person at stake was a woman. Even though she was a criminal, would their consciousness let them kill her?
In Pei Yang's office, after the broadcast ended, Yanyu immediately gave the Keepers an order to evacuate the building including the Cardinal members. They didn't expect Frost would plant bombs, which was never in his MO, so Yanyu contacted the specialized department in OPB to help them.
For a while, the scene was quite hectic. There were several Cardinal members and 1 Keeper who were unlucky enough to be guarding the exploded area. They also needed to take out their bodies.
But just as the people reached the ground floor, the building's emergency shutter activated and closed all openings in the building. Yanyu's face turned solemn.
"How the f*ck did he hack to our building's system?" Pei Yang kicked his subordinate beside him in anger, "Drag the head of IT team here and cut all his fingers!"
"Mr. Pei, do you think we are invisible? Don't think you can do whatever you want in front of us just because we are obliged to protect you." Yanyu stepped forward intimidatingly.
Pei Yang sneered, "What can you bunch of girls even do–"
Yanyu swiftly moved and grabbed his wrist. She moved to the back and kicked his knee down while twisting his arm.
"Aghh! F*cking b*tch!" Pei Yang cursed in pain.
His subordinates moved to take out their gun, but the Keepers already have their weapons out and promptly aimed it at them. The scene paused at a standstill.
On the other side, Lixue took off his mask and exhaled a breath. He swiped back his hair as he glanced sideways at the cameraman, "Nice work. And good job with the bombs."
Lang Mujin turned off the camera and put it down, "It's nothing. Miss Lulu did most of the work."
