Stuck in a Chinese novel - Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Finding evidence
Chapter 243

“We don’t have any information on how the funds are distributed, how they’re distributed, and which holdings they lie in. All we know is their net worth, what’s their distribution system is unknown.” As Wei Jun walked through the lobby of a building, he remembered what Li Wei told him.

“What we need to do is upload malware in their main system. That would be my pass inside. Once I’m in, I can get all the contracts information, distribution systems, configuration of assets, and any of their deals,” Li Wei informed him.

Wei Jun checked the flash drive in his inventory that Li Wei gave him. What Wei Jun wanted wasn’t just the liquid assets of Tai Huan Pharmaceuticals, but everything they had. From their partners to their subcontractors, anything that could be taken over as soon as the company would fall into chaos.

If Wei Jun had that information, he would be easily able to take over everything before any of the other competitors even came to know of the company’s downfall. Of course, it wouldn’t be easy because Wei Jun didn’t deal in that side of the business but he could create one on paper.

The rest just depended on what that small company would inherit from this company. Wei Jun was confident that he would be able to finish this farce in just three days and get back to looking for the MC.

Even three days was a long time for Wei Jun but he had no other choice. He wasn’t a great hacker like Li Wei and even she said she needed at least three days for the program to fully breach the company’s mainframe defenses without leaving a trace behind. Other methods would leave behind traces which would create future headaches.

Wei Jun was willing to spend some time now rather than waste a lot of it in the future being under the microscopic eye of the authorities.

He already had his hands full dealing with so many things at once. Adding police to that was the last thing he wanted to do.

“So you have no other experience?” A buff man who was at least half a foot taller than Wei Jun asked.

Wei Jun nodded and replied, “I’m fresh out of the military. I just wanted to carve my own way. This job was the best to gain experience since it has many guards from the retired forces.”

The buff man nodded as he looked Wei Jun up and down. Although Wei Jun had appeared on the TV, his current disguise which wasn’t much tweaked but made him a little different from his usual look made it hard to link him to Wei Jun Ruan.

The most important factor about Wei Jun was that even though he was well-built, he was also ridiculously handsome. It wasn’t that the guard himself wasn’t handsome but there wasn’t any sign of gentleness on his face while Wei Jun looked like a gentle saint.

The man envied Wei Jun’s looks but he didn’t take it to heart that much. The more handsome you are, the more you have the chance of being targeted by the president. And if you were unlucky enough to catch her eye, then god was your only hope.

The man sighed and said, “Your credentials are amazing but what it doesn’t show is your cultivation level and how good you are with that. So you will have to pass a test before I refer you to the president. She ultimately decides who gets to be on her personal detail.”

Wei Jun nodded and said, “Qi manifestation realm, initial stage.” The man was a little surprised at that because by no means was it a low level of cultivation.

The man nodded and said, “That’s impressive for your age. But cultivation isn’t everything. I need to see how well you do in tense situations. You will be fighting guard Tiao and showing me how you handle a gun as well.”

Wei Jun nodded and followed the man to a spate section where there were many men, and only men, in black guard outfits.

They were practicing with their guns when they saw Wei Jun being led by the guard. He stopped in front of an empty section and said, “Eight out of ten hits is considered passed.”

Wei Jun nodded and picked up the Glock. He didn’t even put on any protective gear because there wasn’t a need to thanks to his cultivation body. He could sense that the others were cultivators as well so there was nothing to worry about.

Wei Jun pointed his gun at a metallic target and aimed at the middle of the circle, the chest. Wei Jun without even reinforcing his stance began to shoot and to the amazement of the guard who was also the head guard, Wei Jun shot only in the middle of the circle, achieving a perfect score of a hundred. There wasn’t even a slight change in his posture while shooting.

All in all, he was perfect to the point of the word itself. Wei Jun put the gun down and turned to the man and asked, “What’s next?”

The head guard snapped out of his trance when Wei Jun asked that and said, “Up next is the fight with guard Tiao. He’s a middle-stage Qi manifestation cultivator.”

Wei Jun nodded and followed the head guard to a boxing ring. The rules were simple. They were to fight without the usage of Qi and show a clean fight.

The word clean fight didn’t apply to Wei Jun who one shot his opponent by hitting him beneath his chin. Without Qi, the difference in stats was so much that the guard lying on the floor whose name Wei Jun didn’t even bother to remember couldn’t even see what was coming at him.

Wei Jun turned to the once again stunned head guard and asked, “Did that qualify?”

Wei Jun’s form as a boxer was perfect and even if he hadn’t used his power to a great extent, he still would have won because of how perfect he was at boxing. Or at least that was how everyone thought from the brief display he put on.

“Go home for today. I will let the director know about you. She will decide whether you come or not.” The head guard said.

Wei Jun left the building after a while and once he was out, he didn’t go home but instead, made his way to the residential area of the city.

There was a church in that area. It was the church that the brother-in-law of the pharmaceutical company’s director ran. Wei Jun went behind an alley after making sure he wasn’t caught by any sort of surveillance and just waited there.

It was dark in a few hours and Wei Jun equipped his biker outfit along with the helmet and came out of the alley under the guise of the shadow. Once he was out, Wei Jun activated his skill ‘Unknown’ that hid his Qi signature. It was a costly skill but his yang Qi allowed him to keep it up for long enough to finish his objectives.

Wei Jun snuck into the church and made his way to the pastor’s office. Wei Jun had made sure that everyone was gone before he went there and once he was there, he turned on the office computer of the pastor and logged into it using Li Wei’s flash drive. His own hacking skills weren’t enough to get him inside so fast so he had Li Wei make one for him which, according to her, would even hack into the most secure organization’s firewalls.

Once Wei Jun was inside, he checked into the email compartment of the pastor and after ignoring a few emails about his church’s campaign, he finally arrived at a set of emails that were from none other than the pastor’s sister-in-law.

‘So that’s how the elder sister fell into depression.’ Their contents were within his expectations. After checking through most of them, he arrived at the one that was set for this weekend, a meeting between the pastor and Wei Jun’s target.

It was easy to figure out what was going on behind the scenes and Wei Jun made sure to tweak his plan according to that.

He was a little sad he didn’t find anything physically incriminating and since they were just a bunch of emails, they could be easily forged so no one would believe that.

What Wei Jun needed was hard evidence and there was only one way to obtain it and that was by infiltrating the mainframe of the pharmaceutical company. Although Wei Jun’s backup plan was to sneak in, he decided to give up on it after seeing the number of guards in the company.

He was still confident in doing his job, but he was sure he would alert everyone and his plan would ultimately go down the hill. So the only way to properly infiltrate the company was by being hired.

He just hoped he was hired before the director’s meeting with the pastor.
