Playing Dumb!

686: Chapter 686 Blocking the Road to Collect Debts!

Playing Dumb!

Without foresight, there are worries near at hand!

Dammit!

Now it’s “enemies on a narrow path”!

After Wu Jie’s body underwent system awakening, his vision, hearing, smell, and other senses had become much stronger than the average person.

So…

Wu Jie spotted at once the business van driving toward him, with Edson in the passenger seat.

Who was Edson?

Zanan City Hesheng Business Consulting Office, Northern Fox Organization’s Zanan City branch, consecutive server damage, invasion and data theft through Trojan viruses…

Events of the past flashed before his eyes in an instant, surfacing in his mind.

He had stolen data accumulated by the Northern Fox Organization over the years and cleaned out their scattered accounts in over a hundred countries and tens of thousands of bank accounts.

Indeed, decades of hard work had been undone overnight, back to square one.

How could such devastating losses not enrage the organization?

Wu Jie knew that if it were him, he would undoubtedly spare no expense to investigate to the end.

Every suspect, every trace, would absolutely not be overlooked.

Especially since the server in Zanan City had malfunctioned twice the day before the incident.

Isn’t that too strange and coincidental?

Perhaps during the interval of damage, someone had completed the invasion through their internal data server.

Without their knowledge, the theft of data, the tampering of systems, and the embezzlement of funds were secretly carried out…

As for why they found him within two or three days.

Wu Jie surmised it was because their internal investigation revealed no historical data, making it impossible to track down the insider.

On the other hand, the recruitment of a temp worker in Zanan City coincided with the server crashing twice, which was too suspicious.

Furthermore, who could possibly have the extraordinary ability to easily infiltrate their central server?

Looking at the world today, who else could be so awesomely skilled?

It seems…

it appears…

only I could!

No choice!

Initially, to get revenge for the hotel bombings, Wu Jie valiantly fought back, breached the servers of three international corporations, seized their confidential data and numerous system vulnerabilities, which led to their substantial compensation to settle the matter.

Could this incident really be kept 100% confidential?

Ordinary citizens definitely wouldn’t know, but the Northern Fox Organization was different.

They had created the International Black Market Network, acting as organizers for various dirty dealings, trafficking in all kinds of contraband…

For them, the unlucky experiences of the three international giants could certainly be investigated and known.

So.

Two days later, they followed the trail to Tianyuan, finding Wu Jie…

their efficiency was still decent.

But who knew whether the goddamn global traveler and international online celebrity who visited the store tonight were actually them.

After all, as the son-in-law of the Tang Family in Tianyuan, Wu Jie was really too famous in this city.

He and his best friend Zhang Hao had opened a store together, having lots of interactions and photo ops with fans.

If the Northern Fox Organization couldn’t even investigate this information, then truly the sun must be rising from the west.

…

The moment Wu Jie saw Edson, he understood.

And of course, he knew that no good could come from the visit of an unwelcome guest.

The other party was neither a kind man nor a faithful woman; they were either here for revenge or to settle a debt.

Beep!

Beep beep!!

Chu Yunxuan next to him suddenly pressed the horn.

The oncoming business van, driving right in the middle of the road, was blocking Chu Yunxuan’s way.

“Stop the car!”

Wu Jie suddenly spoke out.

Without saying anything, Chu Yunxuan was also about to stop; otherwise, she would have collided with the business van.

“Strange, why isn’t he moving?

Behind us…

there’s also a sedan…

what is this…”

Chu Yunxuan’s voice grew weaker before she stopped talking altogether.

From the business van up front, two blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners descended.

One of them was like a basketball player, tall and muscular, extremely robust.

Check the rearview mirror.

From the sedan behind, another man got out.

He didn’t look robust, but rather slim and lean.

The three slowly surrounded them.

Although none of them was carrying steel pipes, machetes, guns, or the like, there was clearly an air of hostility!

Just think about it.

If they were friends or acquaintances, who would block the way with a car in the middle of the night?

Debt collectors?

Definitely not; Wu Jie was so wealthy, how could he possibly be a deadbeat?

Revenge-seekers?

Wu Jie was Tang Xiao’s husband, the Tang Family’s son-in-law, an illustrious figure in Tianyuan; who would be seeking death?

Chu Yunxuan couldn’t figure it out, but she instinctively reached for her phone.

“No need to call the police, just stay in the car; I’ll go deal with it!”

As he spoke, Wu Jie unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

“What’s going on?

Middle of the night, blocking the road; what are you trying to do?

Highway robbery?”

As soon as Wu Jie got out, he shouted loudly.

Edson paused and raised his hand, with Nester by his side, and Enyol in front, both came to a halt.

The two were positioned before and behind the Audi, both about two or three meters away from Wu Jie.

Edson smiled faintly and walked over slowly.

He didn’t hurry to speak.

He first thoroughly scanned Wu Jie from head to toe.

He compared him over and over with the memory of that temp worker.

The appearance was dissimilar, a significant difference.

Moreover, once Wu Jie spoke, his accent was not local; his Mandarin was not quite standard and even carried a Bing City accent.

However…

This build really bore some resemblance; the more he looked, the more similar it appeared.

Of course.

What Edson was concerned with wasn’t the physique or appearance, he knew how good Wu Jie was with networking technology.

On the way over from Tianyuan Haoting, he had even heard that Wu Jie’s latest update on his app was revolutionary.

The new media file compression feature was truly amazing.

Laymen watch the excitement; experts watch the technique.

Those who understand networking software technology could also see that the video algorithm of the app had changed.

With high-definition quality and the same efficient compression, it substantially saved users’ data and reduced speed requirements.

Just a casual functional upgrade, and it’s mind-blowingly awesome.

Infiltrating the central server of the Northern Fox Organization, isn’t that a piece of cake?

Moreover.

They found out that Wu Jie was working overtime in the company, and while hastily heading over there, they received a notification.

The headquarters had already identified Wu Jie’s sufficient criminal intent by reviewing the betting records of the operators.

Tang Xiao had placed bets with the Northern Fox Organization, staking thirty million Gold Coins on Qing-City and Sweet-Mint to lose.

Technically, they were supposed to pay out twenty-four billion Gold Coins.

But the amount was simply too huge, so the headquarters decided to forcibly delete it and intend to default on the payment.

Fortunately, for such large bets, the operators usually keep a written record, jotting it down in a special notebook.

Servers can be hacked, data can be destroyed, but these written records won’t just vanish into thin air.

Therefore.

Wu Jie had the capability, and the criminal intent!

But Edson really hadn’t expected his luck to be so good.

Arriving at the Internet Industry Park, he just happened to encounter Wu Jie leaving for home.

Edson felt that even God was helping him, wanting him to make amends!

And so…

“Mr.

Wu, we just met in Zanan City a couple of days ago, do you really have to pretend not to recognize me?”

Edson couldn’t hide his joy and asked with a smile.

Cold eyes, a wicked smile…

“I’ve met tons of people, what makes you so special?

Move out of the way!”

Wu Jie asked impatiently.

At the same time, he checked his system energy points.

Edson was full of hatred, and being in charge of the Zanan City office, naturally had substantial status and assets.

So, the hatred was worth three thousand energy points this time, which was quite impressive.

But why were there others continuously hating as well?

People like Lepuron, Hou Saiying, Rodriguez…

These unheard-of and unseen people, why were they hating on me too?

Were they hiding around here somewhere?

A cold glance told him that clearly was not the case.

They must be remotely observing this encounter through the spy devices on Edson’s person!

And their energy points were no small sum!

With tens and hundreds of thousands each, to be so mind-blowingly awesome, they must also be high-ranking members of the Northern Fox Organization.

For Wu Jie to cause such a catastrophic loss to their organization, it was only natural for them to hate him.

So…

Wu Jie, on the contrary, temporarily didn’t want to take action, let alone show his hand.

Delaying time, stirring up animosity, and racking up a wave of energy points—wouldn’t that be even better?

Lighting a cigarette and leaning against the car door, Wu Jie watched Edson with a teasing, playful smile.

“Seems like your Mandarin still needs improvement!

Have you heard the saying, ‘a good dog doesn’t block the way’?”

Edson, wearing an earpiece, just chuckled upon hearing what Wu Jie said.

He didn’t explode with rage at being called a dog.

As if his neural pathways were very slow, with a long reflex arc, he hesitated for a moment before responding.

“Move aside?

Heh, Mr.

Wu, are you really so forgetful of important matters?”

“Even if you had makeup on that day, changing your whole look, I could still tell it was you—you’re the temp worker!”

“We know what we do, and I believe you’re aware too.

Why you’re looking for us, I understand perfectly!”

Wu Jie instantly knew.

Edson was just playing along, there must be someone remotely directing him, making him repeat things like a parrot.

“Why am I looking for you?

Do you think I have nothing better to do?

And who are you anyway?

Do I know you?”

Wu Jie feigned ignorance deliberately, aiming to buy time.

He wanted the higher-ups of the Northern Fox Organization, controlling Edson from behind the scenes, to really loathe him.

Edson paused yet again.

It was as if he were a broken record player, and only after receiving the latest instructions did he parrot it back:

“Your wife, Tang Xiao, came to us to bet on soccer, betting thirty million Gold Coins on Qing-City team to lose with the handicap.”

“After the first match ended, we called her, wanting to pay out two billion four hundred million Gold Coins to settle the bet early!”

“But she didn’t agree, and unexpectedly the Sweet-Mint team also created an upset, winning us twenty-four billion Gold Coins, so we voided the bet!”

“Because of this, you must be especially furious, so you disguised yourself and came to our office in Zanan City…”

Edson explained, in his broken Mandarin.

Wu Jie listened quietly, without a word of protest or denial.

“…A man’s anger for a beauty’s sake, we understand your actions and admire your formidable skills!”

“But what you’ve done has caused our Northern Fox Organization incredibly heavy losses, making it very difficult for us to rebuild!”

“Therefore, considering your prominent status and exceptional abilities, it’s worth it for us to have a friendly discussion with you!”

After a brief pause, Edson stared at Wu Jie and said seriously:

“Return all the data to us.

As for the transferred funds, you can keep two billion five hundred million Gold Coins, and give the rest back to us!”

“What do you think?

We’ve fulfilled our promise with the bet payout and are even giving you one hundred million Gold Coins extra—that’s quite sincere, right?”

Wu Jie exhaled a smoke ring, scoffing:

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.

What betting?

What Zanan City?

I’ve only ever heard of a chamber pot, not any Northern Lake or Southern Lake!”

“You!!”

Edson clenched his teeth in rage, almost losing control.

He knew Chinese, of course, so he knew what a ‘chamber pot’ was.

Could his Northern Fox Organization really be compared to a pot for nighttime urination?

The headquarters’ top brass were pissed off as well!

It was an outright insult!

“Mr.

Wu, can you stop playing dumb?

We’re all smart here, no need to pretend not to understand!”

“Your wife bet on soccer, she wagered so much and didn’t get paid—didn’t she tell you?”

Wu Jie shrugged: “Everyone knows I’m just a pretty boy sponging off a rich wife; do you think she would tell me?”

Edson rolled his eyes in frustration.

You, living off a rich wife?

A kept man?

Pretty boy?

Fucking hell!

With your heaven-defying skills, it’s more like Tang Xiao is depending on you!

And at that moment, headquarters sent new instructions.

“We know you’re the King of Tricksters, always coming out on top, with no shortage of people you’ve duped!”

“Let’s do this—we’ll throw in an additional two hundred million Gold Coins.

Keep twenty-seven billion Gold Coins from the money you transferred, and give the rest back to us!”

“How about it?

That’s pretty sincere, right?”

Wu Jie instantly understood.

The underlying message was a warning—don’t push your luck…
