Lu Jun felt comfortable when he heard this, and his expression finally softened a little. “In that case, this is the end of the matter. When Shi Man comes back and writes the report, this mission will be completed.”

Since he had already said so, how could the others dare to have any objections?

Actually, everyone knew very well that Lu Jun had never wanted to punish Shi Man from the beginning. He had only done that to shut them up.

At the black market, Shi Man shrugged away the useless nagging of Lu Jun and turned on her cell phone to plan the night’s operation.

When the night was dark, the entire black market was covered in a layer of fog. There was an endless stream of people on the streets. There was much more traffic than in the day, but it did not make people feel lively. Instead, it made every one of them tense.

Everyone who came and went wore a mask, as if this could protect the secret that they didn’t want outsiders to know.

Most of the people who came to the black market were doing shady work, so they were already used to wearing dark clothes to facilitate hiding at any time.

However, in the hotel lobby opposite the Netherworld Pavilion today, a man in a white Chinese tunic suit had been drinking tea slowly.

His sharp gaze passed through the mask, making others even more afraid to investigate his identity.

The boss was overjoyed to see his esteemed guest again. He hurriedly got someone to brew a pot of good tea to replace the ordinary pot of flower tea on his table.

The man only smiled when he saw this. He didn’t blame the waiter for being negligent just now, nor was he surprised by the boss’s deliberate flattery. He just took a calm look and quickly looked away.

The waiter was surprised that he had sat here without moving for the entire night. What was he looking at? He followed his gaze and looked out of the window. Only then did he realize that he had been staring in the direction of the entrance of the Netherworld Pavilion opposite.

Could it be that he was involved with the people there?

Thinking of this possibility, the waiter hurriedly put away his curiosity and filled the teacup in front of him before quickly retreating to the side with the tray.

It was definitely not a good thing to be related to the Netherworld Pavilion.

Everyone in the black market knew that although the Netherworld Pavilion looked like a storage place in the black market on the surface, there was actually a powerful pair of hands secretly commanding the black market.

They could not afford to offend people related to the Netherworld Pavilion at all. If they accidentally offended someone, they would probably end up with an incomplete corpse.

The man saw all the people coming and going at the entrance of the Netherworld Pavilion, but he did not move at all. He just kept fanning himself, as if he was waiting for someone to appear.

It was late at night, and the customers in the shop had changed wave after wave, but he still occupied the window seat and didn’t even move.

In the C Building of the Netherworld Pavilion, a black shadow took advantage of the chaos and rushed out of the night, slipping into the heavily guarded building.

At this moment, the Netherworld Pavilion’s main control building was in complete chaos.

Tonight, the defense system, which had always been impregnable, suddenly had an extremely serious malfunction. The entire defense system was almost paralyzed. The repair crew was so busy that they were sweating profusely, but they still could not find the problem with the system.

The entire Netherworld Pavilion was in an uproar.

It had to be known that the documents in the General Control Center were all confidential documents of the Netherworld Pavilion. If they lost one, there would be irreparable trouble. At best, they would lose their reputation in the black market. At worst, their golden reputation would probably never be restored.

Supervisor Xiao was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof. He paced around the general control center with sweat all over his forehead. He dialed the phone in his hand again and again, but he could not contact his boss.

He was unlucky today.

There were countless managers in the Netherworld Pavilion, but the problem occurred on hos shift. If Boss blamed him, he would definitely not be able to absolve himself of the blame.

Just as he wanted to apologize with his life, the hackers behind him who were busy repairing the system suddenly exclaimed.

Supervisor Xiao was so frightened that his cell phone almost fell to the ground. He hurriedly ran to the computer and stared at the code on the screen. “Have you found the cause?”

“I didn’t find it.” Hacker N shrugged helplessly. Seeing that Supervisor Xiao’s mood had become even more irritable, he quickly changed the topic and explained, “However, our documents shouldn’t be leaked. This isn’t a big problem. The anti-theft system that the few of us have been busy building for a month is still in effect. The trouble only lies within us. The people outside will still be blocked by the firewall.”

Supervisor Xiao heaved a sigh of relief and said, “That’s great. When can it be repaired?”

Hacker N was silent for a moment. He estimated the time and said, “It should be taken care of tonight.”

Supervisor Xiao’s tense body completely relaxed. His legs went weak and he sat on the ground. He couldn’t care less about his image and quickly waved his hand to reject the hacker’s help. “You don’t have to worry about me.. Fixing the system is more important than anything else!”
