Chapter 89: Chapter 88: What Are You Looking At? (Request for first subscription)
“Idol, don’t be nervous.”
Xia Qingqing poured Lin Chuan a cup of jasmine tea and pushed it toward him with a smile, “You’re now the treasure of our Cyber Security Detachment; we won’t take you away.”
Lin Chuan gave a dry laugh and sipped the jasmine tea.
The tea slid down his throat, leaving the lingering fragrance of jasmine in his mouth.
Darkness fell, and a few stars shone in the night sky, while the Riverside Cottage stood quietly by the Anling River.
Xia Qingqing was reading in silence as well.
She wouldn’t dare to neglect a book by her idol.
The opening content of “All-In” entered her clear eyes.
‘Ten years ago, I entered the KK factory.’
‘Ten years later, I finally escaped to see the sky again.’
‘There were no dreams of instant riches; no extravagant life of luxury.’
‘On the contrary, it was hell, a cage, a den of sin.’
‘There, there were no people, only demons and pigs.’
‘A pig’s life or death doesn’t concern the demons. Once a pig loses its value, it will suffer greatly because it will have to watch its ‘weights’ being removed, then left to its own fate.’
‘Whether you were deceived into going there or went willingly, everyone was treated the same, like life was worthless.’
‘My name is Mr. Lin, a person who was tricked into the factory and luckily escaped up to the heavens.’
‘I will tell you everything here through the perspective of someone who has lived through it!’
‘…’
Raising her head after reading for a while, Xia Qingqing looked at Lin Chuan with some puzzlement, “Idol, you wrote ‘eyewitness’ here; is this an autobiography?”
After reading “Hacker Kingdom” and combining what she knew of Lin Chuan’s miraculous deeds today, she was already doubting whether it was an autobiography.
Now, having seen the preamble of “All-In,” Xia Qingqing couldn’t help but start doubting again.
After all, Lin Chuan’s novels often carried the ‘autobiographical’ label.
Lin Chuan smiled: “It’s just a novel, artistic exaggeration, Brother Xun does the same.”
Xia Qingqing nodded slightly and continued reading.
‘I am a programmer.’
‘To be precise, I am a hacker.’
‘I’m not short of money, and I’m the sunny and handsome type, but the intense workload has my hairline rapidly retreating, and I’m anxious.’
‘So, I decided to travel abroad.’
‘The tour group I joined was Yundian’s, filled with young men and women. The outcome of this trip for these people was the same as mine: sold into the factory by a duplicitous guide.’
‘Later I learned that the market price for a pig was three hundred thousand.’
‘That travel agency specialized in the pig trade.’
‘…’
‘The people from the KK factory put me on an MPV van.’
‘Perhaps they weren’t worried about me running away, so they didn’t blindfold me.’
‘In fact, the KK park had truly achieved ‘zero pig escape’, which was the source of their confidence.’
‘The journey was bumpy, and I sat next to two brawny men with bare arms, whose strange tattoos sent a chill through me.’
‘We’ve arrived at the KK factory.’
‘Outside the factory, I saw people in floral shirts, holding AK-47s.’
‘…’
As a reader, Xia Qingqing, unlike editors who review manuscripts, didn’t make any comments or suggestions while reading.
