My Hitman System -
Chapter 186 - 186: Crumbling Shares (E)
It was 11 PM, and Jin had just completed the first task.
On the mother monitor, the amount he had cleaned off the accounts of people from all around the world was clearly visible.
Money Sent: 10,00,000 Draks [Task Completed]
'This is frightening…' Specy gulped down his saliva. What Jin had just done was a task which would require a team of hackers working for hours and hours.
Brown too was surprised, 'So something like this was also possible…?'
It was Brown's first time seeing someone who had a grade above 7 in the academy, so he was unaware of what all tasks the mother monitor might give them.
It was only now that he was realising how scary technology was and sighed, '... I'm too old to get good at this stuff,'
However, this was just the start. The next start soon flashed on the screen.
Second Task:
Target: Xubio Tech
Objective: Make it share price fall by 30%
Time limit: 3 hours
Beside the message, a huge picture of a building, which was the headquarters of Xubio Tech, a global weapon manufacturer, appeared.
And in its bottom was the live graph of their market share and how it was performing compared to other companies.
'Is this system crazy?!' Specy grabbed his head with an incredulous expression, seeing the absurdity of the task.
'Yea…it's good that in my time there were no such tests,' Brown thought. He had already stopped comparing himself to Jin.
Meanwhile, after reading the task information, Jin started biting his thumb's nail as various possibilities swept past his mind.
'Yeah, I'll do that,' Jint thought and started conducting a few web searches. He got his target.
'Miringham Stock Exchange' Jin went through their website.
The live pricing of all the major stocks was displayed right there.
Along with that, on the other workstations, he opened up the other major stock exchanges.
'I might not be able to get inside your systems during this short time, but I can definitely create a false impression.' A smirk appeared on Jin's face, and his hand started gliding over the keyboard.

Miringham
Xubio Tech Headquarters
Inside a meeting room, the CEO was giving a presentation to the board members.
With serious faces, they all were listening to him.
"...as you all are aware by now, the dynamics of warfare had changed. Countries are no longer limited by borders, and therefore deep striking capabilities have once again attracted their attention.
However, our competitors already are making similar products, so there's not much to gain in focusing on stealthier jets and missiles.
What we need is a cost-effective option which the countries would buy in bulk.
That makes me come back to our project: Zebra Light"
The CEO then pressed a button, and an image on the display wall changed.
A drone the size of a football appeared on the screen.
"It might just look like a normal drone, but it's not. Extremely light, Superior Stealth Coating and easily manoeuvrable with each of them capable of carrying half a ton of weight.
Just imagine if a swarm like this were to drop bombs over a big city…."
With each sentence, the CEO could feel that he was getting closer and closer to finalising a deal when suddenly someone pushed open the door and rushed into the meeting room.
"SIR! THERE'S A PROBLEM!" His secretary exclaimed. His while shirt was drenched in sweat, and he was breathing heavily.
'This bastard!' The CEO thought.
He then looked towards the board members who didn't look pleased, and apologised, "I'm sorry for this. Please spare me a minute."
With that said, he pulled the secretary out with him and when the door was closed, lashed at him, "Didn't I tell you that this was an important meeting?! Just what could be so important that you would rush there and spoil everything!"
The man pulled his secretary's collar in anger while seething in anger.
"S-sir…the share prices…" the secretary managed to blurt out.
"What share prices?! We are one of the leading companies! What could go wrong with our share prices?" he scolded as his irritation reached the peak.
The secretary wanted to smack his CEO, but he knew he couldn't, so he controlled his anger and shouted everything in one go, "OUR SHARE PRICES DROPPED BY FIFTY PERCENT!"
His voice was so loud that not only the CEO but also the board members in the other room heard it clearly.
"W-What?!" The CEO immediately took out his phone and checked the validity of the claim.
The board members inside were also doing the same at the moment.
And the next moment, all their faces simultaneously lost colour.
"THIS!"
"My money!"
"HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?"
When the CEO heard the voices coming from inside the board room, he realised that they were seeing the same thing as he was.
'...fuck me.' His legs seemed to have lost all strength, and he fell on the ground, his face as lifeless as a dried-up tree.
Seeing his boss's devastated appearance, the secretary couldn't help but feel pleased
'I might lose my job today because of this… but at least I get to see this bastard suffer like this,' he secretly gloated.
…..
Meanwhile, Jin was stretching his fingers right now as the results of his hours of work were clear on the mother monitor.
He had created a false impression that the shares were falling on all the major stock exchanges.
This gave rise to fear in the hearts of the investors, and they all started withdrawing their money.
Thus, Xubio Tech's market evaluation fell from the earlier 15 trillion Draks to 7.5 trillion Draks.
And the message "Completed" appeared on the screen.
Feeling his stomach growling, Jin turned towards Brown, who was sitting beside Specy right now and asked, "Can I do the next task after lunch?"
Brown soon retracted his gaze, which was plastered on the screen for a long time, and responded.
"Oh…yes...yes, that was the initial plan. Let's go," Brown responded and got up from his seat
. It was clear that Jin's actions had severely shocked him.
As for Specy, he was looking at Jin with eyes of great admiration. It was as if he was looking at a god.
Jin chuckled and patted Specy on his back. "Let's go."
With that said, they followed after Brown to the surface to have their lunch.
