The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 764: Chapter 764: Because It Was a Prototype She Played With_1

Since it was all stuff she had tinkered with for fun, she hadn’t cared too much and let it sit on the Black Market Online for a while.

Late, @ilovebeingskinny mentioned to her that these Trojan viruses had an unfavorable influence and could easily be used by someone with ill intentions, so she cleaned up the code from the web.

But, after all, it had been on the Internet for such a long time, anyone slightly related to the Red Alliance could see it, so it wouldn’t surprise her if someone had the Trojan virus on hand.

”After you understand the principle, if you encounter such a virus, you can resolve it yourself,” Nathalie Quinlan thought, lifting the corner of her eye with a wild, reckless look in her eyes, and added, ”It’s not as difficult as you think.”

Xavier Rabenstein, however, couldn’t suppress his excitement and kept thanking her.

Nathalie Quinlan added him on WhatsApp and set up a rough time to meet.

...

Meanwhile, Wallace Radcliff was lost in the girl’s earlier words for a long time before he regained his composure, lifted his head with a dark expression, and looked solemnly at Amadeus Yancey: ”Amadeus, the matter with the USB flash drive, do we investigate it?”

The Hoffman Family was considered a fringe family in Beijing, and Phoebe Hoffman’s great uncle, Lincoln Hoffman, was the country’s number one hacker.

Phoebe Hoffman herself was a strong talent, a graduate of Southern University, and counted as one of the most top-notch technical talents among the younger generation.

National talent like Phoebe Hoffman was always scarce, as was the case at The Ninth Institute; if the investigation does find her implicated, it was inevitable that punishment would be dealt out...

He personally preferred to settle matters privately.

An investigation was definitely needed to clarify who was scheming behind the scenes, and those who needed to be disciplined would be, but if the matter were to blow up to an uncontrollable extent, it wouldn’t be a loss for The Ninth Institute alone.

Nathalie Quinlan also lifted her eyelids and her pitch-black pupils shifted toward the man not far away, and only then did she notice that Amadeus Yancey was wearing a suit today, in rare formality. The classic combination of a white shirt and silver-gray suit looked good on his lean figure, elegantly straight posture, and was rather dazzling to the eyes.

She glanced at him, and then noticed the blue cufflink on his sleeve, the exquisitely polished blue diamond nested within the silver setting, looking like crystal – only Nathalie Quinlan herself knew that it was a real diamond, which Silvania Ingram had brought back from the Illegal Zone.

She had designed it herself.

And it was the only piece she created that didn’t bear her signature mark on the ’work’.

Nathalie Quinlan slowly withdrew her line of sight, her eyes cold and indifferent, as if she had not noticed the slightly tense atmosphere in the conference room. She pulled the hood of her hoodie up and took out her phone from her pocket, and lowered her eyelids to play with her phone.

She was only at The Ninth Institute to treat Master Cadmus’s illness; how they handled their internal affairs was their business, and she was neither interested nor intended to interfere.

Seeing the girl holding her phone, leaning back with an air of indifference, Amadeus Yancey knew what she was thinking in her heart.

His lips curved slightly, his crimson lips gleaming with a moist luster – just looking at his expression, he seemed to be in a good mood.

Wallace Radcliff thought he shared his opinion; not to handle the issue with Phoebe Hoffman publicly.

But the next second, the man’s low, mellow voice rang in the conference room.

”Tsk, investigate! Why not? Since she dared to act against The Ninth Institute, she should dare to be investigated.”

”Amadeus.”

Wallace Radcliff jerked his head up, his eyes locked on him.

Encountering the man’s deep eye sockets, his agitation, as if doused with cold water, turned ice-cold in a flash, realizing in his heart that Amadeus was not going to settle this privately. If it was indeed related to Phoebe Hoffman, she might have to pay a steep price this time.
