Chapter 24 - The Gutsy Yang Zi Ten Years Ago

"You did not hear wrongly. Don't worry, although I hate his guts so much I won't sell the new technology to another company or reveal it to the public. The technology will be a very crucial tool to me any time I intend to break into the Zhou's building or their Company so you don't have to worry," Yang Zi cleared his doubts. "Your job will be to enhance the unknown technology to it full potentials after I and Shui Shui have successfully stolen it," Yang Zi said firmly. Yang Zi further elaborated her plans to her two best friends. The surprised Shiyi a while ago shook his in understanding when Yang Zi threw more light on her plans.

"Ok, you know I wouldn't have objected to your plans even though you wanted to destroy the company. You know that I am always on your side, right?" Shui Shui who likes adventures said smiling. The three friends started planning on how they will execute their plans.

The day for them to carry out their plans finally came, Shui Shui and Yang Zi arrived at the front of the building at exactly 2:00am. Before they arrived Shiyi who was left behind in their secret room had already hacked into all the CCTV cameras in the building. Yang Zi and Shui Shui were so relieved when Shiyi informed them that nobody except the security guards were in the huge building. Yang Zi told Shui Shui to standby outside while she entered. Yang Zi did that because she didn't want her to get hurt in case the security guards saw her.

With Shiyi watching every nook and cranny of the building, Yang Zi could easily evade the security guards. Getting to the eight floor where the team responsible for developing new technologies in the company normally carried out their operations, Yang Zi was extra cautious. She was sure that they lay different traps in place to catch any thief who trespasses.

"F*ck! Why won't this door damn open?" Yang Zi cursed under her breath after spending over ten minutes trying to break through the computerised door with her tools. With her customized glasses which came with a camera, Shiyi could see what the problem was, he told her to wait for him to hack into the door. Surprisingly, within three minutes Shiyi could hack into the high technology door that took Yang Zi ten minutes to open.

After spending so many minutes trying to hack into the computer of Mr Tong, the head of the development team. Shiyi successfully did it. He exhaled relievedly. He told her to copy all the data about the new technology she had explained to them.

Thank goodness, Yang Zi had an excellent memory, or else the word DOOM would have been a perfect word for her if she didn't recall the most crucial thing about the new technology which was the name. She recalled that Yuan Quan told her that the name of the new technology was called SPY. After successfully copying SPY, she also copied a few games that the company had developed but had given up on since they found out it was faulty. Yang Zi smiled devilishly as she copied the faulty game. Her evil smile shows that she was up to something extremely evil. Getting out of the building was easy for her than going into it, within five minutes she was out of the building.

"You did it girl," Shui Shui hugged her warmly immediately Yang Zi entered the car.

"All the credits goes to the three of us not only me. We could successfully carry out this plan because of our combine efforts," Yang Zi said, smiling triumphantly. Hearing her say that the credit goes to the three of them made Shui Shui recalled the first day she met Yang Zi in her first year in high school.

...

Ten Years ago.

The mysterious Shui Shui had tried to save a girl who was being harassed by some mean bullies only to end up getting bullied too. The bullies slapped the two girls hard on their faces and also messed up their neatly combed hair. With how roughly they treated them, Shui Shui was so sure that she will go back home with a broken arm or leg for being nosy only for a pretty girl to show up out of nowhere.

Yang Zi who was passing by with a book in her hand felt so terrible seeing the two girls bullied, so she interfered. Although she was a bookworm, all her classmates also knew her for her sense of justice.

"Hey you, what do you guys think you are doing beating up girls?" The bookworm Jin Xiaoqi (Yang Zi's former name) had shouted loudly, startling the boys' out of their wits. The way she spoke with authority had made them assumed that she was a teacher since they were backing her, but they were so angry when they saw that it was some nosy brat who had interrupted them. The gang leader of the school bully laughed his guts out when he saw that it was a little brat who disrupted their operation.

"Are you talking to us?" The gang leader asked, pointing his fingers at himself and his fellow bullies.

"Who else if not you losers?" Jin Xiaoqi leered at them. She was so bold for her little stature. Anyway, you can't blame her for her boldness because her dream was to be a police officer who fights against all injustice in this world. She didn't know that the death of her sister will make her see the ugly side of the police officers whom she once admired and loved.

"Did… Di ... Did....," The leader of the bullies was speechless at the little girl's boldness.

"Hey you there? Can't you talk again or have you suddenly become tongue-tie?" Jin Xiaoqi (Yang Zi's former name) mocked them as she sticks out her tongue just to mock them even more. The leader of the bully who was now fuming in anger signalled his boys to get her for him. What the powerless Yang Zi did next made them took to their heels.
