Chapter 467

He typed: ‘Who are you?’

The other party replied: 'l am Q”

Joel narrowed his eyes.

In the hotel room.

Someone asked, "Why are you claiming to be Q, sir?"

The man sat there with a wicked smile at the corner of his lips.

He replied, "Because Q is someone who doesn't surf the Internet very much, so no one can find
him.His name can also instill fear in people.Besides, if I say that I'm Q, they won't think of going to the
real Q for help.Of course, our hacker toy is indeed not bad.

It seems that she has managed to adapt to the genetic modification drug- She's much more useful than
Hillary Jones! That piece of trash wasted a dose of my drug! Hmph!

"But since the Smiths’ network can't be used anymore, they'll have to listen to me now! Haha!"

He leaned triumphantly against the sofa and held both hands behind his head.

"Say, if a huge company can't use the Internet, how are they going to operate? Will my little servant
come and beg me now?? “

"Tsk, I'm suddenly really looking forward to it!"

He sat upright and added, "By the way, tell our new toy to give them some more goodies as best as
they can! We must drive them into a corner! This way, I would be able to negotiate with my little
servant-!"



"...Yes, sir"

After he left, a voice suddenly rang out faintly in the room.

Arich and mellow voice reprimanded, "Stop messing around!"

"How am I messing around? Don't you find this very fun? Also, what makes you think you can order me
about? I am the little master! I have the final say in everything! Go away, you sickly guy!"

The people standing guard outside didn't react even when they heard the conversation.

It was as if they had already long since become accustomed to it.

"Sigh.Mr.Gray is the only one who can keep the little master in check a little."

"Yeah.It's all thanks to Mr.Gray today.Otherwise, the little master would really have run all the way
down…”

The people guarding the door couldn't help sighing.

"Q?"

In the Smith Corporation's office, Speedy was stunned.

He looked at the alphabet on the screen with great surprise.

"Q is the current leader of the Hacker Alliance.Y is the only one in the world who can contend against
him.But Y has already announced that he will not go against Q...so Q and Y can pretty much be said to
be invincible!"

Everyone else in the IT department didn't dare speak when they heard what Speedy said.



All of them looked at Joel.

Joel stared at the screen.

He looked calm as he typed: 'Mr.Q, may I know what you are after?’

The other party: 'l want you to go bankrupt, haha’ His reply was filled with hostility, which caused the
entire IT department to panic for a while there.

Joel narrowed his eyes and continued typing: ‘Is there some kind of misunderstanding between us?’

The other party: 'Not with you.

Joel: 'Then who is it?’

The other party: ‘Your younger sister”

Joel wrote: ‘What did my sister do to offend you?’

The other party: 'Hmph, I took a fancy to her and want her to be my servant, but she is actually being
so ungrateful!’

Joel:"?"

He narrowed his eyes and typed: "Well, that's certainly pretty ungrateful."

The other party: "Right? So many people dream of becoming my servant, but I never agree.How dare
she refuse me when I chose her?"

Joel: "What I mean is, you're pretty ungrateful"

The other party fell silent.



Joel continued to type: "It's for your own good that I'm forbidding the Smith Corporation's young missy
from becoming your servant."

The other party: 'How so?’

Joel replied: "I'm afraid that she'll drive you to your grave."

The other party:"!!!"

The lip corners of the staff standing behind Joel couldn't help but spasm.

Their boss was simply too sharp-tongued .

However, they didn't dare to say anything, and could only look at one another.

The other party soon sent another reply: ‘What does that mean? My life expectancy will be shortened?
Why?’

Joel:"?"

A question mark appeared above his head before he realized that the other party might be a foreigner,
so he might not understand certain English phrases.

Thus, Joel changed to a straightforward choice of words.

He wrote: 'What I mean is, you are not blessed enough to have her around! Neither are you worthy of
it!’

The other party understood this time.

His speed of response clearly became faster—obviously, he had become a little angry.



He wrote: "Since you are so reluctant to part with your sister, then you'll have to suffer my anger! In this
age of the Internet, I wonder how many days the Smith Corporation can survive without the Internet?"

"Haha, I'm really looking forward to seeing how the second biggest company in the country takes step
after step towards its doom!"

Joel narrowed his eyes.

He wanted to say more, but the other party obviously couldn't be bothered to argue with him anymore
and had turned off the computer screen.

In an instant, all the computers in the Smith Corporation went down and could not be turned on
anymore.

Joel got up.

Speedy sat in front of the computer and started to repair the network again.

However, he was sweating profusely.

How could he possibly be a match for the top hacker Q? Speedy felt immense pressure.

He suddenly stood up and said, "Mr.Smith, I...I'm not doing this anymore"

Joel looked at him sharply.

"Are you unable to do it? Or are you afraid of doing it?"

Speedy swallowed and replied, "Both, I guess! Q and Y are the leaders of the Hacker Alliance.If I
offend him, I'll have a hard time in the Hacker Alliance in the future!"

Joel frowned.



"As far as I know, the Hacker Alliance does not restrict your work, nor does it require you to avoid going
against Q and Y-"

Speedy lowered his head.

"Yes, there are no clear rules, but if I offend my boss, I won't be able to stay in this line of work
anymore.I'm sorry."

Joel stared at him and suddenly said, "You don't usually do much work, do you? But the Smith
Corporation pays you a huge amount every year.Do you think we give you that money so that you can
easily quit on us during crucial moments like these?"

Speedy frowned when he heard him.

He said, "Mr.Smith, I have a good suggestion for you now, and that is to get Ms.Smith to admit her
mistake and give in to the other party.The servant and master talk is probably just a joke! There is no
need for the Smith Corporation to fight them just because of a joke"

Joel's expression turned cold.

"I am the head of the Smith Corporation.Your task is to repair the network for me!"

Speedy swallowed and suddenly walked to the door.

"Mr.Smith, I can't do this! I'm leaving!"

The IT manager frowned as he watched Speedy leave.

He asked, "Mr.Smith, if even Speedy leaves, what are we going to do next?!"

Joel lowered his eyes.



Speedy was simply too unprofessional! He had gotten cold feet and escaped just because of fear.

Joel had really misjudged him.

He slowly said, "Continue trying to repair the network.I will think of something!"

After speaking, he looked at the panicked employees at a loss around him and said calmly, "None of
the Smith Corporation's revenue comes from telecommunications.Our businesses are all in the
physical industry.What's there to be scared of even without the Internet? It's just a 30% loss!"

After making the bad-ass statement, Joel left, planning to ask Nora what was going on.

The Smith Corporation's situation actually wasn't as good as how Joel had put it just now.

The physical industry was currently in decline in the States whereas new media networks were
flourishing.

The Smith Corporation had also opened a few companies doing online businesses.

All the servers were in the Smith Corporation.

Once the servers went down, those in other places...

He had only just thought of that when someone hurried over and said, "Mr.Smith, our games’ players
are all sending feedback that they can't access the games.They are threatening to uninstall the apps!"

"Mr.Smith, the live-streamers on our live-streaming app are asking why they can't access the app and
what's wrong with the servers!"

"Mr.Smith, we had to make a fund transfer for the big deal today, but now that there is no Internet, we
can't complete the transfer...All sorts of problems came one after another.Joel got his subordinates to
deal with them one by one, and then he entered his office.It was already evening by then.The troubled



Joel rubbed his temples and took out his cell phone.His finger was already on Nora's number when his
executive assistant pushed the door open and came in.

"Mr.Smith, we are trending on social media!"

Joel was surprised.

He closed the call app and went to take a look at the trending topics on social media first.

There were five to six trending topics, such as #SmithCorporationServersBreakDown,
#SmithCorporationGetsHacked, #XXMobileGameServerDown, and so on.

They occupied the first few places among the most popular topics.

Obviously, someone had paid money to make them trend.

Comments had already exploded
