Chapter 1676: Yingzi Returns to the World

If it were before, there would be no need to explain such things; Aunt would have already charged forward on her own.

A typical warmonger.

Although Aunt's personality has changed now, she is not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong, yet she hesitated—why?

Ji Yingjie said, "It's not that I don't agree, it's just that I can't bear it. After all, I have wronged the Zhu Family father and son..."

Hmm?

Shi Youxuan widened her eyes; she was too shocked.

"Aunt, you didn't lose your memory?"

This discovery simply left her too astonished.

One must know, after Aunt "lost her memory," no one had told her about the Zhu Family father and son; even if they did, it was about the things Zhu Qingrui had done.

Now that she mentioned the Zhu Family father and son, it could only mean one thing—that the memory loss was fake, and she was just unwilling to face it.

Ji Yingjie's face turned beet red.

Sheng Hanyu did not say a single word throughout, nor did his expression change; he sat to the side as a qualified bystander.

She whispered, "Can you two keep this secret for me? Don't let this matter get out; just let everyone continue to think I lost my memory. That is better for everyone."

"We can."

"No problem."

The two agreed in unison.

Shi Youxuan had doubts in her heart, so she asked, "Since you didn't lose your memory, you must have come to terms with it, right? How did you come to terms with it?"

Ji Yingjie sighed, "During the time I was in a coma, I wasn't completely without consciousness. I could feel you coming to the Hospital Ward to see me, and I could hear the things you said to me."

"But it was as if I were covered by an invisible glass dome; I could sense you, but I couldn't wake up."

"Nianyin is truly good to me; her kindness toward me is submission, is reverence. Your father... hoped I would become the way I am now. Look, he is very happy now, isn't he? I am also very happy."

When Ji Yingjie mentioned her husband, she deliberately concealed some words; she didn't say them, and Shi Youxuan didn't ask.

The matter of Aunt faking memory loss but truly changing was treated as a permanent secret, and no one ever brought it up again.

Ji Yingjie expressed that although Zhu Qingrui and his son had done many evil things, they had already received their due, or even excessive, retribution, so there was no need to keep holding onto it; it would be better to leave him a way out.

Sheng Hanyu finally spoke, "Aunt, if this were just our personal grudge, we could of course let him off, but as long as he is alive, he will cause more harm to innocent people. Currently, he is harming the citizens of L Country, and in the future, it will be even more people."

"There is a saying in Jiangzhou about aiding a tyrant in his oppression; I don't think you would want to become that kind of person just because of a kind heart."

Although he didn't say much, his words carried great weight and successfully persuaded Ji Yingjie to agree to help them.

The world's largest Hacker Alliance Forum.

Today, it was as lively as a boiling pot.

The number of visits in just one hour was more than the entire past year.

Such fierce traffic almost paralyzed the server!

The reason was simple—Yingzi, who had not appeared for a long time, had greeted everyone on the forum today!

"Yingzi" was the online handle Shi Youxuan used in her early years. Using this Bulletproof Vest, she had been invincible in the world decades ago, rapidly accumulating countless wealth in various well-known stock markets.

In the world, there had long been no sign of Yingzi; she was truly like a shadow, coming without a trace and leaving without a trace.

She had suddenly appeared on the Hacker Alliance Forum, been active for over a decade, and then suddenly disappeared.

After "Yingzi" disappeared, the hackers in the forum lost their goal, and gradually, everyone became less active.

Now, "Yingzi" had suddenly appeared and announced a piece of bombshell news: someone had breached bank firewalls and entered the banks to steal money!

Fearing people wouldn't believe her, she even released a set of data and code.

The data consisted of the dates and amounts of all the money Zhu Qingrui had stolen from major banks.

Detailed down to two decimal places.

The code was the method the thief used to invade the bank systems, equivalent to the tools of the crime.

This news was too explosive, no less than Mars colliding with Earth!

One must know that the places with the best security systems in the world should be bank systems; for the place where money is kept to be treated by someone as their own home—wanting to enter, wanting to leave, and wanting to take as much as they pleased—this was a huge humiliation to the banks!

Such humiliation was even greater than the losses.

Zhu Qingrui was not stupid; every time he invaded a bank, he would never take too much money at once.

He would strike quickly and leave after taking a little.

Because the speed was too fast and the technique was superb, the banks couldn't catch his tracks, and since the amounts weren't large, there was no necessity to pursue it desperately; that was how he succeeded repeatedly.

There was another very important reason why he succeeded repeatedly: the banks couldn't afford to lose face. If a high-profile investigation were known by outsiders, it would cause unnecessary panic and reduce everyone's trust in the banks.

But now, "Yingzi" had exposed all of this.

The repercussions of this matter soon caused a "butterfly effect," and the major global banks that were exposed lined up to apologize to the public!

They explained that it wasn't a deliberate cover-up, that the banks had already started internal investigations, and that the thief would be caught soon.

Such explanations were still considered decent; there were even banks that carried out a series of bizarre operations!

After apologizing, they turned around and issued a statement, claiming that "Yingzi" had smeared the banks' reputations and demanding that Yingzi verify her identity and take responsibility for this incident.

Take responsibility? Fine.

Shi Youxuan was so angered by this operation that she laughed; shouldn't they be rushing to mend the fold after the sheep had been lost?

Instead, no good deed went unpunished, and they made such unreasonable demands.

She immediately made a video, hacked into the banks' supervisory systems, and used the top-secret surveillance within to reconstruct the entire process of Zhu Qingrui stealing money from them, and posted it on the world's largest news media outlets.

Didn't they ask her to take responsibility?

Fine, everything as you wish.

The matter expanded once again, almost to the point of being uncontrollable.

The ungrateful banks reaped what they sowed; everyone now knew that their systems had such serious vulnerabilities.

The bank manager resigned to take the blame.

On the day he resigned, this bank saw a massive wave of withdrawals; depositors were unwilling to keep their money in this bank, as it was too unsafe.

Immediately after, it went bankrupt!

The manager who had already resigned had his legs broken by someone on the street; he rolled around in agony and wailed, yet not a single person "meddled" to take him to the hospital, though the media filmed the scene and posted it online.

Within the borders of Country L, at a certain mysterious Castle.

Zhu Qingrui stared at this photo for quite a while, then shut down the computer and pressed the buzzer on the desk.

In a moment, the butler entered and asked respectfully, "Do you have any instructions?"

"Pause the recruitment; do not take any action in the short term. We probably won't be able to live in this house for many more days. Has the next place to stay been arranged?"
