Chapter 161 Chapter 161- Operation: Behemoth (Part 2)
Kai's hand then returned to where it was before as if nothing happened. A few moments later, the receptionist came back.
"I'm sorry for the wait. One of our Project Managers seems to have met an emergency. Would you like to wait here until he comes back?"
"Does he have any other clients?"
"No, he is the only one unoccupied at the moment. I'm deeply sorry for the inconvenience." The woman said.
"I see…" Kai's face turned dejected. "My wife is waiting outside. She's been eager to finally do this. I guess we can come another day."
His tone made the receptionist's face change for a second. She really felt sad for the couple as they seemed extremely excited about this.
"Mm, would you like to wait a little bit? I will make sure he comes back in time. Is that possible?"
At those words, Kai's eyes lit up as he held the receptionist's hands and said. "Thank you so much! You really don't know how grateful my wife would be. She would be happy to wait!"
"S-Sure…" The woman blushed with a chuckle.
"I will wait for him in his office then."
"H-Huh?"
"Where is it from?" Kai asked.
The woman was overwhelmed for a few seconds before she pointed at a certain door. Kai thanked her before he walked there and entered the office. The moment he closed the door, his happy face turned cold and his hand moved to his necktie to pull it down.
Kai was never a fan of neckties because they restrict his neck. But, to make the woman instinctively think that Kai was the real deal and that he was there to talk about the project, she could only accept.
Looking around the office, Kai noticed a CCTV camera. So, he approached the wall casually as if he was checking the decoration of the room. The moment his fingers landed on the wall, a surge of Origin energy rushed from his body before it spread quickly and covered the camera.
On the other side, inside the security room, the guard who was watching the CCTV didn't notice the subtle yet quick change in the camera. His coffee and donuts were too enticing to ignore.
When Kai was certain that nobody would be able to see what he was about to do, he approached the desk and sat down, facing the computer.
'Since the Guild has almost impeccable security, I can't hack it unless I'm close to the main admin server.' He thought as he tapped on the keyboard.
Although the construction company section of the Guild was detached from the actual underworld business, Kai only needed a small thread between the two to be able to access the servers and this computer had what he was looking for.
Looking up at the time, he only had around 15 minutes before the Project Manager came back.
His fingers ran across the keyboard at an extremely fast speed. His eyes were also subtly moving as he read all the information that appeared and vanished on the screen.
'I can't leave a trace for the Guild to realize that someone accessed their admin server.'
The job was hard even for someone as skilled as Kai. The Guild had one of the best cybersecurity teams in the world to guard their top-secret information. This information varies from contracts with hitmen, business deals with the highest companies in the world, and sensitive information about matters related to the underworld. It was basically a treasure trove for Kai to use however he wanted.
However, there was one particular thing he was there for. Sadly, it was encrypted with layers and layers of code that would take teams of professionals days or even months to be able to decrypt it and yet he had to do it in 15 minutes.
It was nearly impossible. But, Kai focused on that 'nearly' part. As long as it was possible theoretically for him to do it, he was going to do it.
'30 seconds left.' Kai's senses picked up when the project manager came back to the office with an angry look.
Kai's speed increased even more as he quickly worked through the files. Eventually, his eyes landed on what he was looking for. Instantly, he pulled out a USB stick and planted it in the computer, saving all the information.
At that same moment, the manager entered the room. A small gush of wind hit his face and made him look up. He saw Kai sitting on the guest's chair, reading through house magazines.
"Oh, hello. I'm sorry for making you wait. Someone called me telling me that my wife is in the hospital. Turns out it was all a hoax that wasted my time."
"People like to make jokes nowadays, don't they?" Kai asked. "Also, it's no problem. I read these magazines, they're quite interesting."
Kai then discussed the matter of the house with the man as if nothing happened before he excused himself and walked back to the apartement.
The moment he was back, he was welcomed with tight hugs from Kaya and Eva.
"Did you get it?" Kaya asked.
Kai nodded before he pulled out the USB stick and planted it in his laptop. Then, he opened the files for Kaya and Eva to see.
"What… the hell?" Eva murmured with shock when she read the information Kai had stolen.
"Kai! This is huge! If such information were to leak, the Guild is done for!" Kaya added as she jumped on Kai happily.
"No, this isn't enough to completely crush them. However, it's good enough to give them a huge blow."
"Still! With this, we have the upper hand! We hit the jackpot!" Eva added with an excited expression and jumped on Kai too. The two girls hugged Kai on the couch, filling his senses with their warmth, smell, and pleasant appearances. This was the heaven countless people would kill to get.
"Meow!" Miyu -who had to stay crouched inside the apartement- wanted to join but could only lick the trio from the side.
"Get ready for the next step. We don't have time to celebrate." Kai said as eh picked up the laptop again and started typing on it.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm sending the coordinations to the 5 Archangels. I told them that they would receive them by afternoon."
"Where are they going to meet us?"
"Here."
"Wait, here?!"
"We need to keep it as low-key as possible till the appropriate time."
"But, they're a bunch of freaks…" Kaya replied.
"Says the sixth Archangel." Eva retorted.
"I'm different!"
"Yeah, of course you are. Out of all the ten of them, you're the only sane one. What a weird world we live in." Eva shrugged.
"Shut up, Mother's Milk."
"Mother's Milk?! What the fuck is that nickname?!" Eva glared at Kaya.
"New nickname. Fits you better than 'Kiddo'. Look, you still have your mother's milk between your teeth. Ah, how I wish to go back to being a toddler like you."
"You…!!"
"You two, silence. This isn't the time or the place for your fights."
As Kai was about to reprimand them, he heard a knock on the door. The Archangels have finally arrived.
