Extreme Almightiest Young Master Chapter 71

Chapter 071 Just This Once, Never Again

"Director, it wasn’t me, I’ve been hacked too..." Liu Letian cried out anxiously, thinking to himself how wrongfully accused he was, how could he possibly force the leaders and classmates to watch that kind of film, that would be like signing his own death warrant, he would never be that insane.

"What? Hacked, who do you think you are, Liu Letian? Could anyone else hack you, are you kidding yourself? Right now in Tianhai City, there are only a few people with computer skills on par with yours, let alone hacking you, what a joke, you need to come up with a more convincing excuse. Do you still want to treat the leaders like fools? Liu Letian, are you really out of your mind?" Wang Bing became even angrier upon hearing Liu Letian’s explanation. To him, Liu Letian was already a gem in the department, not even professors at Tianhai University may match your level, and yet you claim to be hacked, thinking we’re all idiots!

In the entire Tianhai City, there’s probably no one capable of hacking you, how can anyone believe your explanation?

"Director, it really wasn’t me, and I am no Immortal. I really got hacked, I didn’t lie to you..." Liu Letian kept explaining with pain and urgency, also feeling utterly speechless inside. He blamed his own prominence in the school since now when he told the truth, no one believed him.

Before he knew it, beads of cold sweat formed on the anxious Liu Letian’s forehead, his eyes misting up. How did such a thing happen today, what... what should he do.

Although he felt quite capable in the realm of computers on a regular basis, at his core, he was still a student who had never experienced any real trials or tribulations—just earlier he had felt his heart in turmoil, and now, faced with Wang Bing’s roar, he was utterly clueless on what to do.

"What on earth were you thinking, doing something like this? It’s humiliating even to speak of. Anyone with a brain wouldn’t do this. Tell me what happened," Wang Bing, seeing that Liu Letian was indeed anxious, and didn’t seem to be faking it.

Having calmed down a bit himself, he kept feeling that someone as smart as him would never do something so outrageous. Could it really be that there was something else going on?

"It’s actually very simple. This morning, while I was in class, out of boredom I watched that kind of film for a little bit, and without my knowledge, somehow it turned into the current situation. So, I can only say I was hacked. How could any sane person do that? Even if I, Liu Letian, were foolish, I wouldn’t do something that’s tantamount to seeking my own death!" Liu Letian briefly recounted the incident, but he chose his words selectively, only mentioning the part about watching that kind of film. Mentioning anything about hacking into the surveillance system was out of the question—that would be asking for real trouble...

Watching that kind of film might not be a respectable thing, but given how things had turned out, and it was common knowledge, there was no harm in mentioning it.

While it’s not honorable to watch that kind of film, it’s a private matter after all, and no one can really make anything of it.

"What? Watching that kind of film out of boredom during class? You say you’re a top student, how could you do such a thing? Have the nerve to admit watching that kind of film in class? Don’t you know students are not allowed to watch unhealthy content, or else why would you get into such big trouble today? Go back and reflect on yourself, first write a thorough self-criticism," Wang Bing having understood the situation, decides to send Liu Letian away to contemplate how to report to the leadership.

At this point, it’s up to the higher-ups, there’s nothing more he could say about Liu Letian.

"Director, then... how will the school deal with me?" Liu Letian asked cautiously, worried that if the school expelled him, how could he face his parents? If he got expelled for watching that kind of film, where would he put his face, could he even go on living?

"Is this something to be proud of? Do you expect the school to award you a red flower for it? The minimum would be probation, anything else is up to you to figure out. Now leave," thought Wang Bing, wondering what Liu Letian was contemplating, even asking such a question.

This matter could be big or small, but Wang Bing did not want to blow it up since there would be a large responsibility on him as well. Not just for the sake of Liu Letian, but even for his own sake, he needed to handle this situation with as low a profile as possible.

"Thank you, Director, I definitely will... reform, thank you. I’m going back to write the self-criticism now," Liu Letian, seeing Wang Bing’s irritation, opted not to annoy him further, but as he left, he couldn’t stop thinking, how will the school deal with me? Will they really expel me...

Watching Liu Letian leave, Wang Bing was also troubled about how to report to the leadership in a convincing manner.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he grew, cursing at Liu Letian’s stupidity in his mind. If it weren’t for the fact that you’re the department’s prized student, stirring up trouble like this would get you kicked out immediately. The only somewhat believable excuse seemed that Liu Letian had been hacked, which would also mean less liability on their part, and at worst, the film incident would be chalked up to a personal moral failing, likely not leading to major consequences.

With that, Wang Bing hurried to the department leadership.

Dazedly returning to his dorm, Liu Letian, with his mind still buzzing, felt as if he had lost his soul. Nonetheless, out of habit, he turned on his computer and stared at the booting screen, lost in thought.

Just as he was deep in thought, Liu Letian noticed something off about the screen and blinked in alarm. The computer’s screen had suddenly... changed, startling Liu Letian so much he nearly jumped. The computer had just been turned on and yet it was already under someone else’s control, how was this possible?

Moreover, it was his own computer, and he was well aware of its defenses.

What kind of person could do this?

But what followed left him even more dumbfounded, as cold sweat streamed down uncontrollably.

Liu Letian, born in 1993 in TJ city, S province...

Had previously joined the Meteor Hacker Alliance, had participated in...

Chat records with members of the Meteor Alliance, details of websites they had jointly attacked...

Had taken part in domestic and international competitions...

Had once developed the "XX" hacker software and spread it around, though this software did not cause damage...

Once successfully breached xx website and several other websites...

Failed to breach dozens of websites, including...

......

By the time the last piece of information had been displayed, Liu Letian was completely drenched in sweat, as if he had just taken a bath with his clothes on. He stared at the monitor in a daze, overtaken by fear like he had never experienced before, spreading throughout his body.

Is this even a human being? These details, some of which were things he had deleted, how could he know them? Many things he couldn’t even remember were clearly recorded. Knowing everything about him was terrifying!

Just as he was thinking, all the data, all the information that was displayed on the monitor vanished instantly, leaving behind only eight words: "This time only, no next time."

This time only, no next time, no next time...

Gazing at these eight words, Liu Letian felt all his strength leave him, ready to collapse. But at the same time, his heart finally settled down because everything that had happened was so bizarre, so shocking. But now, seeing these eight words, at least it meant the other person didn’t intend to put him in a life-or-death situation; it was just a warning. He wasn’t stupid—the events of this day were clear enough, weren’t they?

Lin Feng was a thousand percent that Lin Feng. But to believe that all this was the work of someone who looked just like a student, he found it unbelievable, as he had never heard of anyone his age being capable of such a feat.

And the events of today had also been triggered by his own jealousy, in his attempt to make Lin Feng look foolish.

What Liu Letian couldn’t wrap his head around was why such a person would still be working as a teacher at a school. Any country would value someone like that, even he had had some minor contact with some special departments due to his own skills.

But now, compared to Teacher Lin, he felt utterly insignificant. Liu Letian finally understood the saying "There’s always someone better, there’s always a higher sky."

Impressive, too impressive, the only thought in his mind was to stay as far away as possible, at least he should be safe as long as he didn’t provoke Lin Feng...

......................

A French class, although there was a rather shocking interlude in the middle, under Lin Feng’s teaching, the students learned a lot. When the bell rang for the end of class, everyone was still reeling from the excitement and hadn’t realized class was over.

Seeing this, Lin Feng was also very happy, after all, this kind of recognition made him very joyful. Noticing that nobody got up right away, and recalling the incident that had occurred during the lesson,

Thinking of this, Lin Feng picked up a piece of chalk and wrote a sentence in French on the blackboard: "We are young, we can have fun, but never cross certain limits, because that is playing with fire."

"I hope everyone can remember this sentence. Okay, that’s it for today’s class!" Lin Feng patted the chalk dust from his hands, glanced at the discussing students, and stepped out of the classroom.

Seeing this sentence, it naturally brought the classroom incident to mind for everyone, and they stared at Lin Feng, each pondering how the school would handle Liu Letian’s situation. This wasn’t this what Teacher Lin meant by playing with fire? Teacher Lin’s words were truly sage, and the students unanimously noted down the sentence to remind themselves in the future.

A group of them, not waiting for Lin Feng to leave, quickly surrounded him. They were all curious how such a young French teacher was not only outstanding but also skilled in computers, and they could tell he was extraordinarily proficient. How had the teacher learned all this?

They hadn’t fully processed the event during the lecture, and then Lin Feng had swiftly drawn everyone back into the lesson. Now that the class was over, they all closed in.

Because the level of excitement in today’s class was comparable to a movie plot, too exciting and astounding.

"Teacher Lin, how do you know about computers as well?"

"What’s so strange about knowing computers? These days, who doesn’t?" Lin Feng casually responded.

"Not just ’know’, you were almost divine."

"Learned from reading books in the past, how impressive could that be?"

"But why can’t I learn it..."

"Just put your heart into it."

"Teacher Lin, how are your hands so fast? How did you manage to do things like in the movies? Teacher Lin, are you a hacker?"
