[You have urgently disconnected. Please choose whether to reconnect.]
"No."
[Do you wish to activate wake-up procedure?]
"Yes~ I need that~"
[Received, it is now January 2, 2049, 00:40. You will wake up in two minutes]
...
Two minutes later, Motan sat up from the game cabin, after briefly adjusting to the hazy feeling like just waking up, a smile of mischief formed at the corner of his mouth.
He stood up and walked to his computer, turned it on, and swiftly halted the program just before the system started booting up. He then quickly switched it to a pure black interface, at the same time, he kicked the computer desk slightly sideways, pulled out a black network cable from a hidden compartment underneath, and plugged it into the computer.
"Hehe~ What a wonderful surprise~" Motan narrowed his eyes as he murmured, "I didn't expect to find your trace in that place after failing to locate you for so long. You have finally been a little careless, haven't you, Sun~?"
Perhaps you've already deduced something from this…
Correct, Black Sun is not an organization, nor are they Koreans, but a pairing of two individuals, almost unrestrained by ethics. And Motan is one half of this team, codename: Black.
The true face of the other person has now also begun to emerge from the shadows...
"Activate Hunting angel system," Motan softly commanded the microphone in front of him: "Based on the original foundation, exclude all males and change the subcategory conditions to East Asians, heights ranging from one hundred and fifty-five to one hundred and seventy-five centimeters; add glasses, age between eighteen to twenty-five, citizens of Country C, has not purchased any Innocence Company peripheral products, and if their mother is living, in the variable conditions... Yes, there's one more, did not appear outdoors on the night of 31st December 2048 and tonight. Let's start."
After a flickering like a snowstorm, a progress bar suddenly appeared on the computer screen. A mechanical voice came from the headset that Motan had just put on: "Searching, remaining time 99 hours+., hide search panel?"
"Of course~, "Motan rolled his eyes, tossed the headset aside, and looked at the desktop of the computer that had swiftly switched back to the regular system, and smiled slightly: "Imagine if I could definitely expose you, then play some pranks in the name of Black Sun after you get arrested. It will be immensely amusing, right? Haha~ Hahahaha~~~"
His hearty laughter lasted for a while, thereafter he turned his gaze back to the game cabin and softly said, "I've suddenly thought of a great idea…"
...
Black and Sun, these two hackers, met during an accident. At that time, Motan was searching a French hospital's psychiatric records and accidentally found another set of data that also happened to be infiltrating the same place. It was as if two thieves had reached into a pocket at the same time.
So for fun, Motan deliberately triggered the institution's firewall and alerted the authorities at a faster speed than the automatic alarm system, while simultaneously destroying a vast amount of valuable research data. Then, he disappeared into hiding.
But the other party was not to be messed with either. When Motan deliberately triggered the firewall, the other thief immediately intercepted Motan's virtual IP and cloaked it onto himself, trying to switch places and let Motan get captured instead.
The competition, eventful and thrilling, then started between the two hackers. Even though neither ended up being caught by the other or the police, the officers who handled this incident nearly went insane. They were redirecting troops and used up a huge amount of resources to deal with this 'extremely detrimental' event. They checked one household after another, warmed up one community after another but after hustling all night, they even almost arrested their top boss…
It was simply an exceptionally responsible yet tearful history!
What's worth praising is, although they did not catch those responsible in the end, the playful Motan and the other hacker codenamed 'Sun' developed a hint of curiosity and a bit of recognition for each other while fooling the civil servants.
A week later, they met in a bank's database and together performed the first act of enormous spectacle and practical value: they made every ATM of the crooked, globally branched private bank simultaneously spit out large amounts of cash, and kindly deleted their serial numbers...
An hour after the incident, an entity claiming to be 'Black Sun' took responsibility and leaked the nude photos of a broken-hearted banker on the same-sex social networking website, casually, they also exposed the five-star hotel with pinhole cameras installed in the rooms...
From then on, these two individuals linked by crime have never given up on their initial game with each other, which is to expose the other, then put all the accumulated foulness over the years squarely upon the other's head.
"This is simply the utmost pleasure~"
Motan, getting back into the game cabin, cheerfully spoke to the air just before he closed his eyes: "Don't disappoint me~"
