Norman was overjoyed, nodding repeatedly. "I'll go handle it right away!"
Norman left, full of energy once more.
Watching him leave, Aaron sometimes worried if he was overworking this middle-aged man in his forties.
These days, especially in the US, good henchmen are hard to come by!
Just then,
Aaron suddenly sensed something.
A smirk played on his lips.
"Look what I've found, little mouse?"
Under his mental control, the Osborn Corporation's cybersecurity program was instantly and fully activated.
Under Aaron's command, it engaged in a fierce battle with an external data stream.
Piercing alarms echoed throughout the building.
Perhaps sensing the Osborn Corporation's fierce resistance, the data stream sacrificed a pawn to save the king, forcibly severing itself and quickly retreating from the firewall.
"Trying to run? It's not that easy!"
Although Aaron wasn't overly knowledgeable about the cyber world, his skills were already quite advanced compared to an average hacker.
He was probably in the top tier, just below artificial intelligence.
Moreover, he had the entire Osborn Corporation's firewall assisting him.
It was like adding wings to a tiger!
Aaron pursued relentlessly, deliberately not devouring the opponent in one go, but instead following closely behind without the other party noticing.
He wound through the cyber world, making turn after turn,
even going overseas,
and then re-entering through the southern region.
Finally, it stopped at... the Osborn Corporation?
Aaron realized something.
He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down.
From a distance of over a hundred meters, he quickly scanned the vehicles parked below.
Finally, he locked onto a van.
Activating his X-ray vision, he easily penetrated the obstruction and saw what was inside the car.
Aaron's expression was strange. "Skye?!"
Chapter 35: Millions in Losses, Skye Panics
On the road opposite the Osborn Corporation building,
a van was quietly parked by the roadside,
standing out like a "sore thumb" among the luxury cars.
"How can the Osborn Corporation's firewall be so powerful?"
Skye's hands were a blur, furiously typing on the keyboard.
"Phew~ Finally shook them off!"
"A security system comparable to Stark Industries. I wonder who the Osborn Corporation's cybersecurity director is. Did they perhaps jump ship from Stark Industries?"
Skye grumbled, released her hands, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Looking at her phone beside her, Skye was hesitant, glancing at the Osborn Corporation building with reluctance.
"There must be some unknown secret hidden in there!"
"I have to find a way to get in and figure out what they're up to!"
Skye secretly made up her mind. As a person of justice, she felt it was necessary to uncover the dirty dealings between these politicians and large corporations.
She wanted to expose it to the public; everyone had an equal right to know!
"Miss, you can't park your car here!"
A violent knocking suddenly came from outside the van, startling Skye, who quickly looked over.
Opening the window, Skye looked out. It was an Asian man, quite handsome, but why did he look so familiar?
"Why can't I park here? Aren't parking spaces for parking?"
Aaron pointed to the other cars. "That's a Rolls-Royce, that's a Ferrari, this is a Pagani, and look at that one, it's a Porsche, and then look at you..."
Skye looked around at his words. Good heavens, she was the only one with an ordinary van here!
She retorted, "There's no rule here that says I can't park a van!"
"There are indeed no specific rules here; any guest can park here. But if it's someone with ill intentions..."
Skye immediately felt guilty. "I'm here for an interview!"
"Oh really? Why don't I know about it?" Aaron chuckled.
Skye puffed out her chest. "You're just a doorman, how could you possibly know? I'm here to interview for the cybersecurity department!"
Aaron said "Oh," and then, pretending to, picked up his phone.
"Norman, are there any interviews for the cybersecurity department recently? What? No?! Are you sure? OK, I understand."
Aaron then looked at Skye. "So, do I need to call 911?"
Skye's face turned pale. "Don't try to scare me! Don't think you can fool me just because I drive a van!"
As Skye spoke, she moved towards the driver's seat.
However, an unlocking sound came from the car door, and Aaron pulled it open!
Skye was stunned.
I locked it properly, how did you open it?
"Hand over your phone!"
"And your laptop!"
"Don't come in! I'll call the police right away if you do."
Skye threatened weakly, clutching her phone and shielding her laptop, guarding her last line of defense.
Aaron wasn't annoyed. He crooked his finger, and the laptop, as if pulled by an invisible hand, flew directly in front of Aaron.
Skye was too surprised to react and lunged forward.
But her speed was like slow motion in Aaron's eyes.
Holding the laptop in one hand, he stood firm and opened his arms. Skye, as if throwing herself into his embrace, fell into Aaron's arms.
"Miss, I know I'm handsome, but you don't have to be so desperate, do you?"
"Perhaps we could exchange contact information, then go out for a movie, a meal, and then proceed to the next step?"
Skye ignored him, her eyes fixed on the laptop, reaching out to snatch it again.
"This is mine, you're robbing me!"
"Then call out to it, will it answer?"
Hearing this, Skye, whether from anger or exhaustion, breathed heavily. "Then you call out to it, will it answer?"
"Little Ai, student." Aaron asked.
"I'm here!" the laptop replied.
Skye was shocked!
What the hell? How did she not know her own laptop had a name!
"Little Ai, student?"
"..."
Aaron: "Little Ai, student."
"I'm here!"
"What the f***!"
Skye's expression changed, looking at the laptop as if it were a heartless lover.
You were something I saved up for and bought with great effort, I took good care of you every day, and whenever there was new software or hardware, I installed it for you immediately.
And now, at the sight of this scoundrel, you abandon me!
Is there no justice? Is there no humanity!
You say you're not human? Damn it! Heartless laptop!
"No! You're also a hacker?!"
"When did you hack into my computer?"
Skye recovered from her shock, looking at Aaron with extreme wariness.
"Wait, you look... like..."
"Aaron, the new CEO of the Osborn Corporation!"
The figure in front of her gradually merged with the image in her memory, but Skye felt no excitement, only fear.
What should I do when caught red-handed doing something bad by the boss of the other party? Waiting online, it's urgent!
"Congratulations, you got it right! But, no prize!"
Aaron waved his hand again. This time, a spider web shot out, sticking to Skye's phone in her pocket. With a gentle tug, it landed in his hand.
Skye had already given up resisting.
Go ahead and do whatever you want, I don't care anymore.
"Which organization do you work for?"
Skye didn't answer.
"Rising Tide?"
Skye was startled. "How did you know?"
Aaron didn't answer, continuing to ask, "Name."
"Marilyn Monroe."
"Skye."
Skye glared. "You know and you still ask!"
Aaron still ignored her, directly took her phone, found the most recent contact number, and called it.
Skye was anxious now, wanting to stop him.
The phone rang quickly on the other end.
"Skye, what's the situation?"
"...This is Aaron. Rising Tide, right? You just wait!"
Before he could finish speaking, the call on the other end had already been disconnected.
It was imaginable that the other side was absolutely in a frenzy at that moment.
"You..."
"Relax, Skye, I know you're in a hurry right now, but don't rush. Now let's talk about our problem."
"You infiltrated my company, breached our firewall, and damaged our core data, causing immense losses, at least hundreds of millions in business."
