Chapter 545: Magic House

"I'm home!"

Saying this softly to the empty house, Sun Cheng loosened his tie.

The central air conditioning in the villa was on, and the temperature was at least ten degrees higher than outside.

Because it was very warm, he took off the polo coat he was wearing outside and hung it on a coat rack near the entryway.

"You're back!"

Ye Qi quickly walked out from inside the house; seeing the small apron she was wearing, it was clear she was preparing dinner in the kitchen.

Seeing her, the expression on Sun Cheng's face softened accordingly.

"Didn't I tell you to eat earlier in the afternoon and livestream a bit earlier in the evening so you could rest sooner?"

He did not particularly like Ye Qi's profession, but he respected her choice.

When Ye Qi first came to Nandu at the beginning of the year, Sun Cheng had invited her to Cybertron Technology to help him, and after she refused, he did not force the issue.

Thinking that he would soon become a major shareholder of Yuegui Network, the platform where Ye Qi livestreamed, the smile in his eyes deepened a little.

Ye Qi raised the spoon in her hand, "I'm used to it. If I lie in bed too early, I just keep thinking about scrolling through my phone and still can't sleep... Go change your clothes first. Dinner is curry, it'll be ready in twenty minutes at most, I put in lots of beef..."

As a homebody, she had many hobbies; singing, dancing, and the like were already played out enough during her livestreams.

In the time that belonged to Ye Qi herself, she liked to binge-watch anime, television dramas, and various food videos.

Thanks to her, in the half year they had lived together, Sun Cheng had eaten many strange foreign dishes, most of which tasted very odd and did not quite suit his palate.

For example, the cheese that Ye Qi liked very much was something Sun Cheng, who was slightly lactose intolerant, could not eat at all; curry was one of the very few foreign delicacies he could accept.

Nodding, Sun Cheng said, "Then I'll go to the study to read a document first, call me when it's ready!"

"Mm!"

After first going to the bedroom to change into casual clothes for wearing at home, Sun Cheng walked into his study.

As soon as he entered, he saw Revenge, who had transformed into a laptop.

"Revenge, report on the security situation around the residence today..."

"Understood, Master!"

Following a cold mechanical sound, several beams of light shot out from the laptop Revenge had transformed into, forming several different dynamic images within the study.

"Monitoring points No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 are all normal. Today, there was no sign of anyone approaching the vicinity of the residence to install surveillance equipment or attempting to intrude!"

Ever since the company under the Cybertron Group began producing X-1 Mechanical Exoskeleton Armor for the military, the state had increased the level of protection for him.

However, there were too many secrets on Sun Cheng, and he did not like having daily contact with too many people.

Therefore, he only accepted the personnel deployed by the National Security Bureau and the military near the company, the factory, the residence, and his hometown, treating it all as protecting the safety of Ye Qi and Ye Qi's parents for him.

Sun Cheng was not surprised by this.

His cooperation with the military was currently in a honeymoon period, and he believed no one would do anything that would make him feel repulsed.

"Launch Magic House!"

Sun Cheng walked to the mahogany desk and sat down, saying softly.

The computer Revenge transformed into possessed all the functions of a computer and naturally could have software installed on it, but the software code input into the computer Revenge transformed into would soon be digested and decomposed by its Core, retaining only the essence to become a part of its abilities.

Sun Cheng had discovered this point when he was in the Transformers Universe; when he used the Frenzy Body to link to the Earth's internet, he could download various information and even software he was interested in from the internet.

After processing by the Core, most of the information he felt was useful was saved by Sun Cheng in the storage Chip of the Frenzy Body.

As for some software he had initially downloaded just out of curiosity, Sun Cheng discovered that after the Core stripped away the useless information inside, it could improve and perform Enhancement on it, making it one of his own abilities.

Many of the current achievements of the Cybertron Group were the result of him using this ability to input the software he needed into the Frenzy or Revenge bodies, and after it was processed and upgraded by the Decepticon Core, he would convert it back into source code, extract it, and re-package it to be used as software.

After receiving Sun Cheng's order, Revenge immediately canceled the several different dynamic images it had projected; in their place, the display screen of the laptop it had transformed into lit up, and a small house icon quickly popped up on the screen.

This chat software named 'Magic House' was something Sun Cheng had created over the past few months by combining various chat and office software on the domestic and international markets, first writing a rough piece of software, and then repeatedly modifying it using Revenge's special abilities.

It was a special chat software that could be accessed via smartphones, smartwatches, and computers, and it supported three modes of communication: text, voice, and video.

Because he had been very careful about security from the beginning, the chat content of 'Magic House' would be saved on a special cloud drive, and the terminal for that cloud drive was here with Revenge; it was no exaggeration to say it was the most secure chat software in the world.

'Magic House' was not born to make money, and Sun Cheng had no intention of entering the chat software industry.

After developing this software, he had never let it spread on a large scale in the market.

Currently, this chat software had fewer than three hundred users, all of whom were Chinese, though over seventy percent of the users were within Xia Country.

And they, along with this chat software named 'Magic House', were precisely the attempt Sun Cheng made to round out the lie he had told in the past, namely the secret organization behind him—the Progressive Chinese Federation, abbreviated as 【P. C. F.】.

After 'Magic House' was opened, fifty small house icons with different designs immediately appeared inside, and each small house icon also displayed a lock.

Looking closer, the information displayed on 48 of the small house icons was 【Number of people: 1000/1000 (Full)】, 【Cannot join this chat room without receiving an administrator invitation or entering the correct invitation code】.

There were only two chat rooms that were not full; the remark information for one was 【China Technology Exchange Room 1】, 【Number of people: 182/1000】, 【This chat room is limited to Xia Country technology enthusiasts who have received an administrator invitation; entering the room requires the correct invitation code】.

And the other chat room that was not full had the remark information 【North American Chinese Exchange Room 17】, 【Number of people: 104/1000】, 【This chat room is limited to North American Chinese technology enthusiasts who have received an administrator invitation; entering the room requires the correct invitation code】.
