I almost couldn't help but laugh out loud, that kind of laugh that comes from disbelief. 0
 
"Du Ran, are you serious?" 0
 
"Reorganizing Memory Fragments?" 0
 
"Have you watched too many sci-fi movies, or do you really think Lin Bing is some kind of AI superhero?" 0
 
"She's just an undergraduate student. Can she really hack into a bank's system and turn someone's digital identity into Lego?" 0
 
I looked at her, thinking this idea was simply absurd—ridiculously absurd. 0
 
"And that guy from the Finance Department? His dad is the CEO of Xinghai Technology!" 0
 
"Even if Lin Bing were feeling desperate, she wouldn't go after the son of such a big shot, right? Does she want to ruin her chances in the IT world?" 0
 
I thought Chen Yu would side with me since she usually got along well with Lin Bing. 0
 
But to my surprise, Chen Yu lowered her head and said softly, "Wei Wei... actually... I heard that guy from the Finance Department publicly humiliated Lin Bing during an internship interview... He said her skills were lacking and that she should just go home and take care of kids..." 0
 
What the hell?! 0
 
This happened too? 0
 
I was stunned. 0
 
This... actually seemed like a motive for revenge. 0
 
But I still thought it was too far-fetched. 0
 
"Even if she was humiliated, it wouldn't warrant something this extreme, right?" 0
 
"This could completely destroy a person's digital existence! It's worse than murder!" 0
 
"You guys don't really think Lin Bing..." 0
 
I looked at both of them. 0
 
Chen Yu's eyes darted away, unable to meet my gaze. 0
 
 
Du Ran crossed her arms, wearing an expression that said, "I knew it all along." 0
 
A fire ignited in my chest. 0
 
"Are you serious? Do you really think she did it?" 0
 
"Even that junior from the Broadcasting Department?" 0
 
"Just because she mumbled a few nonsensical words in her dream? Because her crush rejected her? Because she was turned down in an interview?" 0
 
"Are you channeling Sherlock Holmes, or do you have a persecution complex?" 0
 
The more I spoke, the angrier I became. 0
 
Chen Yu quietly defended, "But Weiwei, I did see some really strange code on her computer before... I didn't pay much attention at the time, but now that I think about it, it seemed like it was used to scrape personal data..." 0
 
Well then. 0
 
Even Chen Yu was starting to waver. 0
 
Seeing the silent agreement between them, I completely lost it. 0
 
"Fine!" 0
 
"If that's what you all think, then there's nothing more to say!" 0
 
I grabbed my phone, ready to dial. 0
 
"I'm contacting the Network Security Office right now! I'll tell them everything we know and everything you suspect!" 0
 
"Let the professionals decide if this is just a coincidence!" 0
 
My finger was about to press the call button— 0
 
Suddenly, a faint crackling sound came from my laptop. 0
 
It was soft but particularly clear in the quiet dorm room. 0
 
All three of us turned to look at my computer. 0
 
The screen was black, in sleep mode. 0
 
 
But... 0
 
Next to the Power Indicator Light, the Little White Dot that usually only lights up during video conferences, indicating that the microphone is active... 0
 
Is lit. 0
 
A glaring Little White Dot glows faintly in the dim light. 0
 
Are we... being monitored? 0
 
The Little White Dot on the laptop's microphone flickers like a ghostly flame. 0
 
The three of us exchanged glances, too afraid to even breathe. 0
 
Just then, my computer screen suddenly lit up. 0
 
I hadn’t touched it. 0
 
A video call request popped up on the screen. 0
 
Caller—Lin Bing. 0
 
To answer or not to answer? 0
 
Before I could make a decision, the call automatically connected. 0
 
Lin Bing's expressionless face appeared on the screen, with her Shinjuku Dormitory in the background, looking quite tidy. 0
