Chapter 483: A Lunatic Like This is a Genius (Part One)
Rich sighed. “My teacher told me that in the profession of hacking, you would only be a good hacker when others don’t know that you are a hacker. Otherwise, you are a failure, because you won’t have any way of protecting yourself in the real world. He used himself as an example to warn me.”
Xu Cheng: “Have you seen what your teacher is capable of?”
Rich: “No. But, he made me into the hacker I am today, and that’s enough to prove his skills. But unfortunately, for the rest of his life, he could only instruct me into writing the codes he wants for himself, but I would always fall behind his tempo. But, I can see how much he desires to touch the keyboard again. He said, he would never forget the feeling of typing again, just like his first love.”
Xu Cheng smiled and teased, “Why do I feel like you are talking about keyboard warriors? In our Huaxia, keyboard warriors are a terrifying existence. They are enough to sway public opinion and fan the wind. We also call them the cancer of the internet.”
Rich frowned. “Keyboard warrior? What the fack is that?”
Xu Cheng smiled. “Nothing. Can you introduce me to your teacher?”
Rich shook his head. “He won’t see you. If betraying him is the price for you to save my life, then I rather give up the offer.”
Then, Rich turned around and left.
It was very hard to imagine that someone who was so desperate to be treated could also turn around and leave so decisively. It looked like his teacher was a good teacher, and this student was also a good student.
Just when Rich arrived at the door, Xu Cheng shouted, “If I said that I can help him grow a new pair of hands, will you believe it?”
Rich was shocked as his body trembled.
Then, he turned around to look at Xu Cheng, “Are you joking with me? Not to mention if it was him losing a finger or two, both of his arms were amputated! Even if you use prosthetic limbs, there’s no way to connect the broken nerves to allow him to control the fingers with ease. I made so much money and took him to all the top-tier surgeons that were the best in the field, and we couldn’t find a solution. Do you know what the doctors’ advice was? They mockingly told him to learn to type code with his feet!”
Rich then sneered. “Then, that hospital’s database was compromised and its scandals were exposed by my teacher. Guess how he did it? With his feet!”
Xu Cheng was speechless.
Rich turned around and left.
Xu Cheng then said, “I wasn’t joking.”
Rich turned around to look Xu Cheng right in his eyes. After a while, he said seriously, “Are you really being serious?”
Xu Cheng nodded. “I have a dream. I want to gather all the lunatics in the world and then play a game. The scale is too big, it will require many people to participate to play. I’ve come out from a mental institute before, but to be honest, the people there were still not crazy enough, nor were they outstanding enough! So, I don’t care how much of a madman your teacher is, I’m just afraid that he won’t dare to play!”
Rich looked at Xu Cheng and asked, “Are you a politician?”
Xu Cheng shook his head. “Nope. Or you would’ve already found out.”
Rich pursed his lips. “Then a hidden capitalist? A businessman?”
Xu Cheng shook his head again. “Not quite.”
Rich scowled. “Then what are you playing? Let me tell you, little capitalists can’t play against politicians, and big politicians can’t win against capital giants! If you aren’t any of them, what are you trying to play? Want to change the world with just your ideas? Haha, there are too many lunatics in this world. They think their chaotic and crazy thoughts are normal, and the actual normal guys are crazy.”
