Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Then, let the ga begin! Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Then, let the ga begin! She didn’t like anyone exploiting Tianqi for their own agenda! It was a complete violation of her bottom line.
At this mont, Li Hanzhou casually spoke up, “Ho’s really had an agenda for organizing this major event; what they want is probably more than just this.”
As expected…
An overseas expert asked, “I’m familiar with Tianqi Research Institute; the projects they have developed so far have all been astonishing. Especially Professor Qiao, although I don’t know what kind of person she is, she must be soone worthy of respect. Since you are Professor Qiao’s student, why are you not at Tianqi Research Institute but at Ho’s instead?”
The expert asking the question was simply curious about the reason.
But he received many grateful looks from the audience.
The blond, blue-eyed expert thought to himself, “The Huaxia people are really enthusiastic.”
What he didn’t know was that everyone was very curious, but nobody dared to ask because of Tianqi and Professor Qiao’s prestige.
Han Luo’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his fingers trembled, and Huo Chi’s commanding voice ca through his earpiece, “What are you doing? Act now!”
Qiao Yun was watching Han Luo, her eyes devoid of emotion, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Han Luo steadied his uneasy heartbeat and slowly began, “It’s because soone at Tianqi Research Institute took credit for my research…”
Once he began speaking, his words flowed smoothly. Looking determined, he emphatically told everyone present about the unjust treatnt he had experienced, “I toiled day and night on my research, only to have it taken away by soone else. When I discovered this and reported it to Professor Qiao, she chose to cover for the other person, which is why I ultimately decided to leave Tianqi.”
These were the reasons he had given to Huo Chi when he approached him.
The crowd was shocked, having not anticipated this revelation.
But…
Is it true?
With loyal defenders of Qiao Yun speaking up loudly, “That’s Professor Qiao, how could she possibly do sothing like covering for a thief? It’s absurd! I think you’re lying!”
But then, soone else murmured in response, “It’s not uncommon to see such seemingly selfless people who actually steal the research of their students behind the scenes in the industry, maybe…”
“Impossible! Professor Qiao would never do such a thing, you garbage are spouting nonsense. When Professor Qiao was contributing to society, you were probably still playing with shit!”
“What did you say? I am garbage? Do you dare to compete with ? I’ve long been fed up with you people and your blind worship. Now your faith is shattered, isn’t it?”
The place erupted into chaos.
So supported Professor Qiao, others were skeptical, after all, the words ca from the director of Ho’s, giving them so credibility.
Qiao Xun’s face turned extrely ugly, and there was a hint of anger, “Qiaoqiao, what is this?”
Qiao Yun answered with composure, “It’s not like that.”
Qiao Xun naturally believed Qiao Yun and frowned, considering whether Han Luo had an ulterior motive.
Li Hanzhou wrapped around Qiao Yun’s small hand, playfully twisting it as he jested, “Girlfriend, I never thought Professor Qiao could be that kind of person. It turns out we can’t judge a book by its cover.”
Qiao Yun glanced at him, her partner’s eyes brimming with amusent. The next second, she pulled back her hand.
“Alright, I’m done teasing. I was wrong,” Li Hanzhou returned to the matter at hand, “Are we going to let this go unchallenged?”
Of course, Qiao Yun couldn’t just let it go. It was one thing to use Tianqi for their own narrative, but to slander her as a villain that needed punishnt was another.
However, seeing those who were defending her eased so of her displeasure.
“Enough, stop arguing. What do you look like?” A voice as deep as a bell rang out, and the room imdiately quieted down.
The speaker was Professor Xu Long, a prestigious figure in the tech circle, naturally invited to the event. He had just greeted Qiao Yun; little did he expect to encounter the so-called student of Professor Qiao slandering her for covering up a theft.
His gaze piercing, he fixed his eyes on Han Luo, “You know, I have so acquaintance with Professor Qiao. She has offered guidance a few tis; you might say she is almost like a ntor to . I’ve never heard her ntion you, her supposed student?”
Xu Long raised a doubt, and everyone present quickly reacted.
“Exactly, you claim you’re Professor Qiao’s student just like that? Then if I say I’m MR. Q’s student, does that make it true?”
Han Luo gave a bitter smile, “Believe it or not, I’m telling the truth. Today, I don’t want to dwell on these past issues…”
He hadn’t finished speaking.
All of a sudden.
The alarm system in the venue suddenly went off, and at the sa ti, all the lights went out.
The scene plunged into darkness, and uncontrollable screams erupted, “What’s going on? Why did the lights suddenly go out!”
Jiang Shaocheng felt cold sweat about to fall. He had already been scared to death by Han Luo’s sudden revelation about Professor Qiao’s lack of fairness, and now this happened. He imdiately instructed his people, “Go check backstage quickly, see if it’s an electrical problem.”
The scene was only calm on Qiao Yun’s side.
Qiao Yun felt that sothing was amiss, as if this had all been planned in advance.
At this mont, the large silver screen on the podium suddenly went black, and when it lit up again, a line of text appeared!
Doomsday countdown, fifty-nine minutes and fifty-nine seconds!
Along with it appeared a huge skull that was opening and closing its jaw, even emitting a chilling, clicking laughter.
Xu Long recognized the thing and exclaid, “It’s ‘Doomsday’! The Trojan virus that nearly caused a grid collapse five years ago! How could it appear here!”
Those who didn’t understand asked the people around them, “What’s this ‘Doomsday’ thing?”
Just then, the skull began to speak, using the venue’s sound system, “Let’s play a ga together.”
“Starting now, if you can’t destroy within one hour, we shall all die together.”
“So, the ga begins!”
“Close the security doors!”
“Block communications!”
“Change the course!”
“…”
As the commands were issued.
The thick security doors slamd shut, and everyone present was trapped in the event venue like cattle and sheep waiting for slaughter.
Soone took out their phone only to exclaim, “The signal’s been blocked, we can’t contact anyone outside.”
“This is bad, the cruise ship has changed direction, its destination is… the open sea!”
If the virus can’t be cracked, they won’t get out, and if nobody realizes what happened to them…
All the people present realized the severity of the problem!
Han Luo’s lips twitched slightly as he spoke calmly, “Everyone, don’t panic. As long as we crack the virus within an hour, we’ll be safe. Leave everything to my security team.”
Li Hanzhou thoughtfully said, “What a coincidence.”
Qiao Yun thought for a mont, took out her phone, or rather, a mini computer.
She entered a command on her phone, then as she watched the rapidly flashing green code, Qiao Yun muttered knowingly, “So that’s how it is…”
