When I returned to the house next door, I could faintly hear some movement coming from over there through the wall.

Feeling annoyed, I put on headphones and started playing games.

Just after one game, a message popped up on my phone.

Opening the chat box, the other person was clearly shocked, sending messages non-stop.

World's Number One: "Wow, ccccc, Lin Jie, you've made me dirty my eyes."

World's Number One: "I can't even clean my eyes properly, I want to gouge them out myself."

World's Number One: "I must have committed a great sin to agree to help you with this, you owe me eyes that have never seen such filth."

World's Number One: "Lin Jie? Lin Jie? Lin Jie?"

World's Number One: "Why are you silent? Are you feeling guilty?"

World's Number One: "I knew you, as a woman, have no conscience, blame my youthful ignorance, sincerely fed up."

Me: "Smile.jpg"

World's Number One: "Wuwuwu, Lin Jie, you finally responded to me, you've tricked me, what did you make me monitor? Do you know how much harm I suffered seeing two almost-dead old folks battling it out?"

Me: "I'll pay more..."

World's Number One: "Alright, sis, it's fine if my eyes are dirty, just don't dirty yours, remember to transfer the money to my account instantly, thanks."

Me: "Get lost.jpg"

I skillfully transferred a six-figure sum to his account to shut him up.

During my rebellious phase seeking excitement, I met many shady characters outside, from all walks of life.

This money-minded "World's Number One" was one of them, just a poor internet-addicted teenager back then, but in a few years, he transformed into a hacker.

I remember when he was learning hacking techniques just to cheat in games.

Over the years, I kept in touch with him. When I discovered the indoor surveillance in the house next door, I wanted someone to hack the system, and he was the first person I thought of.

He didn't disappoint me, effortlessly infiltrating the surveillance system next door, allowing me to monitor the activities of the couple at home anytime.

After playing games for several hours, he messaged me again.

World's Number One: "Lin Jie, they've laid down and there's no movement..."

Seeing the message, I calmly finished the game before taking off my headphones and heading next door.

I rang the doorbell, knocked on the door, but there was no response inside.

I persistently continued knocking on the door, anxiously calling out, "Uncle, Auntie, open the door, it's me, Xiaolin."

It was impossible for them to open the door, as the people inside were still unconscious.

But my commotion attracted the attention of the neighbors upstairs and downstairs, and they all rushed over.
