Asked you to write a book, not to confess your criminal record!

It's a bit tricky!

"Do we have a conflict with the Morgan Group in our 'Underworld' section?" Lin Chuan pondered before asking.

The Underworld section, containing the "Hacker Kingdom" and "Black Ice" areas, records key technologies related to two novels and numerous discussions among readers.

Logically, there should not be a conflict with the Morgan Group.

"In theory, there's no conflict,"

Angelina thought for a moment and nodded, "It's possible that the Morgan Group has taken an interest in the 'Underworld' section and wants to control it, eliminating any phishing agents. A large number of users inside could potentially become their customers."

"That's possible," Lin Chuan frowned. Enjoy new stories from m-v l'e|m,p| y- r

"Should we continue to investigate or strike back?" Angelina asked.

"Wait a little longer," Lin Chuan replied.

"Fine."

Angelina also furrowed her brow, a look of confusion evident on her delicate, fair face, uncertain about her own speculation.

Because the roots of the Morgan Group run deep in the gray-black zone, like an old banyan tree, its expansive root system covers an unimaginable area.

It's an unimaginable range.

Even if they coveted the clientele of the 'International Forum-Underworld,' they shouldn't go to such great lengths.

While Angelina was pondering,

her colleague knocked on the door of her studio. The thump, thump, thump echoed in her ears.

"Come in," Angelina switched her computer screen.

The door opened, and in came a North Bear boy.

The boy said, "Angelina, I've found the company for the new type of addictive drugs."

Angelina raised an eyebrow, "Which company is it?"

"The Morgan Group, to be exact, their Southeast Asian branch," the North Bear boy answered, "I'm sending you the information now. As soon as you can, hack into the Morgan Group's Southeast Asian branch and obtain their new type of addictive drugs data."

"The Morgan Group?"

Angelina looked startled.

"Angelina, is there a problem?" the North Bear boy asked curiously.

"No problem, leave it to me," Angelina responded before starting to examine the part of the data about new types of addictive drugs that her colleague had sent her.

She suddenly had a strong premonition!

—'International Forum-Underworld' being attacked by the Morgan Group might be related to those addictive drugs.

Angelina immediately opened the data.

The partial information about 'Morgan Group-New Type of Addictive Drugs' collected by her colleague appeared before her eyes.

[Name: New Type of Addictive Drugs.]

[Source: The Morgan Group's Southeast Asia division.]

[Main Sales Region: Southeast Asia.]

[Possible Symptoms: Acute intoxication symptoms after use, manifesting as strong mental excitement, physiological overextension, frenzy... Followed by symptoms such as drowsiness, mental languor, depression, central nervous system inhibition symptoms, etc.]

[...]

With just one look, Angelina was stunned!

This data was too familiar to her!

It was almost identical to the No. 3 addictive drug recorded in Lin Chuan's novel "Black Ice"!

As a die-hard fan of "Black Ice," she couldn't be more familiar with it.

In an instant!

She understood why the Morgan Group attacked the 'International Forum-Underworld'!

'International Forum-Underworld' had leaked substantial information about their new addictive drugs!

Angelina didn't hesitate.

She immediately opened the chat window with Lin Chuan, her slender fingers quickly tapping on the keyboard, typing her speculation and related evidence into text.

Then, hitting the enter key, she sent it to Lin Chuan.

Across the network, far away Lin Chuan, upon seeing the message from Angelina, also froze for a while.

He furrowed his brows, quietly sorting through his thoughts: "The 'No. 3 Addictive Drug' I developed in the virtual world is nearly identical to the 'New Addictive Drug' developed by the Morgan Group in reality, so, they think I've stolen and leaked their secrets, hence, they attacked the 'International Forum-Underworld'?"

The night had grown very deep.

Outside, all was silent, and the cool night breeze blowing through the window brushed Lin Chuan's face.

Lin Chuan calmed himself.

If this speculation held water, then the novel "Black Ice"...

At that moment,

the system panel in his mind suddenly updated.

[Work: "Black Ice".]

[Current Status: Removed from shelves.]

[Current Popularity Value (Average Subscription): 18808/50000]

[Assessment Task: Production of 95% pure addictive drugs (Completed).]

Hiss!

Lin Chuan took a deep breath of cool air.

"Black Ice" had been removed!

He immediately opened the overseas version of Sailing Novel.

As expected, the overseas version of Sailing Novel had collapsed and could not be opened.

The Morgan Group had not only attacked his "International Forum-Underworld" section but also the Sailing Novel overseas edition where "Black Ice" was published; both had fallen prey to their 'poisonous hands'.

First the forum, then the novel.

If the Morgan Group was planning another move, who would be their next target?

Without a doubt, the answer to this question was emerging.

—It was very likely that the Morgan Group would come after him!

As someone who had experienced numerous professional lives, he surely couldn't fail to deduce the answer to this problem.

At this moment, Lin Chuan's brows were tightly furrowed.

Lin Chuan took a sip of Maojian tea, and as the liquid gurgled down his throat, his thinking became exceptionally clear and agile.

'No. 3 Addictive Drug' was none other than the new type of addictive drugs developed by the Morgan Group, and according to some information disclosed by Xia Qingqing,

—Coincidentally, this new type of addictive drug had already appeared in Anling City.

Meaning that the Morgan Group's claws had already reached Anling City.

The Morgan Group could strike at him at any time!

Or rather, had the Morgan Group already made a move against him?

At this point, Lin Chuan had to connect all of his experiences during this period and analyze them together.

Including the publishing of the "Black Ice" novel, Anzhou Pharmaceutical's collaboration with the 720 Company, Xia Qingqing's investigation into the clues of the 'new type of addictive drugs', Xinxin's mother's sudden return and her invitation for him to serve as her deputy, his creation of 'new type of addictive drugs' in the lab, Little Landlady's visit to Anzhou Pharmaceutical's pharmacy manufacturing plant, Anzhou Pharmaceutical's Yu Keke wanting to buy the land owned by Little Landlady and offering a 6% share ownership as a gift.

Also, on the evening before Liu Meng, Little Landlady's mother, sought him out,

he had detected the scent associated with 'new type of addictive drugs' on his second uncle, Zhang Ren.

Hiss!

Lin Chuan couldn't help but take another deep breath, causing goosebumps to spread all over his body!

Suddenly, he felt as if a vast net was slowly descending upon him; unbeknownst to him, he had become a tiny bird trapped beneath this gigantic web.

If it were not for tonight's "International Forum-Underworld" suddenly being attacked, and Angelina relaying crucial clues,

he might well have been ensnared by this vast net in the near future!

At that moment,

Lin Chuan's mind immediately thought of two companies that were very likely deeply involved with the Morgan Group.

—Anzhou Pharmaceutical, Huarun Foreign Trade Export Company.

These two companies correlated with two people!

Yu Keke, Liu Meng.

Currently, both were unofficial organization members who had extended an olive branch to him.

Undeniably, the Morgan Group must know that he was an expert in the field of developing addictive drugs.

Their actions towards him could only be two kinds: recruitment or elimination.

The gray area tactics were typically so.

If you can't work for me, then... better to be a shattered jade than an intact tile.

After all, they were people who licked blood off knife edges, no one wanted to leave a threat unchecked.

"Idol, what do you plan to do?"

After a while, seeing that Lin Chuan had remained silent, Angelina asked with concern.

She might not have thought as much as Lin Chuan had.

But Angelina knew that Lin Chuan seemed to be entangled in the web of interests woven by the Morgan Group.

Very dangerous!

'Damn it!'

Lin Chuan cursed under his breath, his face showing a fierce determination!

The usually good-tempered man hadn't shown such anger since dealing with the Old Street Factory District.

Then, he typed two characters on the keyboard and sent them to Angelina.

—Fight them!
