Ex-wife becomes the world's number one hacker

Jiang Yin frowned slightly: "Where are you going so late?"

"You'll find out when you get there," Lu Xun said, his tone still gentle and polite.

Jiang Yin was taken aback. "Is it what I think it means?"

Lu Xun's smile remained unchanged as he nodded: "Yes."

"This is kidnapping!" Jiang Yin's voice rose, filled with obvious anger and a barely perceptible tremor.

She suddenly grabbed the phone from the table.

Lu Xun was faster than her.

He stepped forward and gently pressed down on her wrist, the force not strong, but not enough to allow her to break free.

"President Jiang, please don't do this," he gently advised, while his other hand had already taken a palm-sized detector from his pocket.

"These... you don't need to bring."

Jiang Yin struggled but couldn't break free. "Where's Tang Ning?"

"President Tang...is asleep." Lu Xun's tone was calm, as if he were reciting meeting minutes.

Jiang Yin's chest heaved as she stared at him for two seconds. The anger she had been forcing faded like the tide, leaving only a cold, pale expression.

"...I understand," she said hoarsely, releasing her phone.

As Lu Xun emerged from behind the desk, he noticed her steps were somewhat unsteady. Even as she spread her arms for the scan, he could see a slight tremor in them.

Lu Xun carefully scanned her from head to toe.

The detector's cool outer shell occasionally brushed against her thin summer shirt, outlining the contours of her body.

The instrument beeped softly, and the screen displayed "CLEAR".

According to the procedure, the next step is to touch and feel it.

Lu Xun shifted his gaze from the screen to Jiang Yin. A silk shirt clung to her skin, subtly revealing the outline of her bra. She wore loose-fitting linen culottes, soft and flowing.

He stopped halfway through reaching out his hand.

Searching a girl's body through such a thin layer of clothing is really...

Moreover, the instrument has already been verified.

...It should be fine.

He curled his fingers almost imperceptibly, withdrew his hand, and neatly put the detector back into his pocket.

"Please." He stepped aside and politely extended his hand toward the door.

The wind was cool in the underground parking garage, and the echoes were desolate.

A black SUV was parked quietly near the elevator entrance, its windows tinted so dark they were almost opaque.

Jiang Yin was half-helped and half-pushed into the back seat, the muffled sound of the car door closing shutting out the outside world.

She noticed that Tang Ning was not in the car.

"Where is Tang Ning?" Her voice was dry.

Lu Xun sat down beside her and gestured to the back, "Don't worry, he's sleeping soundly in the back."

After saying that, he took out a black eye mask.

Jiang Yin stared at the blindfold and held out her hand: "I can do it myself."

Lu Xun smiled, didn't insist, and handed it over directly.

He was quite impressed by Jiang Yin's composure in quickly accepting the current situation:

Geniuses are different after all; even their fear subsided so quickly. Qin Heming, on the other hand, treated this luminous pearl like a treasure, discarding it as worthless—truly blind to its value.

Thinking of this, Lu Xun gently shook his head.

The moment Jiang Yin put on the blindfold, she used the action of adjusting her posture and hugging herself with both arms to press firmly on her chest with the inside of her left upper arm for a second.

Inside the bra's inner lining, the only button on the miniature communicator was triggered, putting it into continuous mode to send location beacons.

enough.

At least on the road, Lu Xun will not block signals, otherwise it will create a signal black hole and make him easier to track.

Once they reach their destination, even if the area is blocked, the scope will be much smaller, making it relatively easier for Director Yu and the "Warriors" to search for them.

What she needs to do now is to conserve all her energy to deal with everything that lies ahead.

With the blindfold on, vision is deprived, but hearing and smell become suddenly heightened.

She first smelled a faint leather scent inside the car, and then, as the vehicle drove out of the underground parking garage and merged into the main road, more sounds poured in.

In the distance, the commercial street was filled with the noise of people, festive music, and the occasional burst of fireworks, while nearby, there was an unusually dense cacophony of car horns and screeching brakes.

On the night of Qixi Festival, which also happened to be a weekend, the streets were packed with people and vehicles.

Just then, a loud metallic clang came from not far to the left rear, followed by screams from the crowd and a series of screeching brakes!

Jiang Yin's heart sank.

She understood: the other side's "noise cover" had been activated. On this crowded night, car accidents, stampedes, fires... any "accident" would be perfectly logical.

All roads leading to the destination will be completely blocked by various "accidents".

This will undoubtedly make the arrest more difficult for Director Yu and the "warriors," which is why the target gang chose to strike tonight.

The car accelerated amidst increasing chaos and turned onto a seemingly quieter road.

The night was dark, and the car sped along at breakneck speed.

A heavy motorcycle was always closely following the car, neither too close nor too far away.

.......

Jiang Yin felt that the vehicle had been traveling for a long time.

The road surface under the tires changed from smooth asphalt to frequent speed bump vibrations, and finally to the continuous, fine rustling sound unique to gravel roads.

The increasingly strong smell of the sea began to be mixed with the pungent odor of rust and rotting seaweed.

Jiang Yin knew that they had arrived at the seaside.

The closest seaside to Beijing is Tianjin.

The car stopped, and Jiang Yin was pulled into a space.

The blindfold was suddenly ripped off.

After a brief period of dizziness, she could see in the dim light that she was standing in the middle of an abandoned warehouse.

The ground was cracked and sandy cement, with a sticky, dark green substance in the cracks that was hard to tell whether it was moss or oil.

Atop a rusted steel beam more than ten meters high, hangs an old-fashioned explosion-proof lamp; its glass cover is now yellowish-brown.

The dim light could only illuminate a circle less than ten meters in diameter below, and the edges of the light were quickly swallowed by darkness.

The air was filled with a nauseating mixture of dust, mustiness, and a strong fishy smell.

Dark shadows loomed all around, with abandoned shipping containers and large wooden crates piled haphazardly, some stacked so high they were almost touching the lower beams.

Jiang Yin was looking around when Lu Xun carried a person over and threw him at her feet like a sack of potatoes.

It's Tang Ning.

His hands were tied behind his back, and his ankles were bound with the same plastic straps. His shoes and socks had been removed, leaving him barefoot. He was only wearing a thin shirt, and his belt had been taken off. His mouth was taped shut, and his eyes were closed.

Jiang Yin knelt down and reached out to check his breath.

"Don't worry, he's not dead." A hoarse middle-aged male voice came from behind.

Jiang Yin was startled and looked in the direction of the sound.

A man was sitting on a wooden box five or six meters away.

In the dim light, Jiang Yin recognized it at a glance:

"Uncle Maolin...you're back?"

"I came back especially for you, Yinyin." Yu Maolin smiled, the light from the explosion-proof lamp shining obliquely down from above his head, casting heavy shadows under his sunken eye sockets and cheekbones, making his smile look somewhat eerie.

He turned to the left and said, "Lu Xun, move a box for Yin Yin. We can't let her stand and talk."

The tall man on the right, wearing a baseball cap, suddenly spoke up: "Don't we need to tie it up?"

Jiang Yin looked in the direction of the sound, and after carefully identifying it, raised an eyebrow:

"Uncle Chen Mo? That's really... unexpected."

Chen Mo nodded slightly and said nothing more.

"No need," Yu Maolin waved his hand at him.

"A girl like her is too weak to even kill a chicken. Besides, scientists should be treated with the most basic respect."

Lu Xun quickly brought over a broken wooden box and placed it behind Jiang Yin. She bent down and moved the box back half a step, just enough to shield the unconscious Tang Ning behind her, before calmly sitting down.

"Uncle Maolin wanted to see me. What's up?" She looked around. "Why did you choose to meet me here?"

Yu Maolin chuckled softly, his voice echoing in the empty warehouse:

"Tianyu has been making great strides in the past year or so. I thought Ouyang had produced another new genius... but I never expected that after searching for so long, Xiao Xun would find it was you again."

"Yinyin, you must be Shen Tong? Uncle has been looking for you for many years, and I've finally found you, hahaha..."

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes filled with a burning admiration:

"You have lived up to your talent, and your uncle is very proud of you."

"Now, Uncle is going to take you to a place that's more suitable for you." He gently clenched his right hand on his knee, his tone as gentle as if he were discussing a trip.

Jiang Yin placed her hands on her knees and straightened her back: "What kind of place is that? Do we need to go abroad?"

"Yes, to Country A. The first stop is CIS," Yu Maolin said casually, as if arranging a routine academic visit.

"Go there and have a good 'exchange' about the military projects you've been involved in, especially those two systems."

He paused, then looked Jiang Yin up and down as if admiring a nearly finished work: "As for the next arrangements... you'll understand when you arrive."

After Yu Maolin finished speaking, he raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.

Jiang Yin noticed that he had looked at his watch countless times during the short conversation.

She knew what he was waiting for.

If I'm not mistaken, they're probably waiting for a small boat, and there must be a ship anchored there in the nearest open sea.

Therefore, what she needs to do now is to delay as much time as possible.

Jiang Yin was pondering how to bring it up when suddenly a heated argument erupted from the doorway.

Someone is trying to break in.
