Chapter 6

Lin Lai's actions had already infuriated Zhang Qiu. Furthermore, the sudden appearance of the "Super Beauty Finder" app, so he made up his mind to complete the activation task.

Firstly, it was to punish and retaliate against Lin Lai, and secondly, he wanted to see if he could really activate some mysterious system. As long as he wasn't caught, he wouldn't lose anything. The reason he hadn't dared to do this task before was just a lack of the courage to be bold. Now, being provoked by this post, his courage had grown.

In the post, Lin Lai said she had already obtained Zhang Qiu's IP address and confirmed that he was a student at Suxian No.1 High School. She demanded that he destroy all the private photos and posts in front of her and also submit a formal, sincere apology letter to her in public.

Zhang Qiu had to guarantee that all the private photos had been destroyed; otherwise, if any photos leaked or appeared in places they shouldn't, he would be responsible.

None of these conditions were acceptable to Zhang Qiu. Hacking was already a risky business, and a fool would apologize in person, which would just give her leverage over him.

Moreover, he had indeed backed up some of the photos, but this kind of data, which could be easily copied, couldn't be proven to be completely destroyed! Digital photos weren't like film negatives.

Furthermore, if the photos leaked or appeared in places they shouldn't, and he was held responsible, that would be a huge burden. With the internet so advanced and privacy leaks so rampant, who knew when a friend might leak the photos?

Who knew when some tech-savvy admirer of Lin Lai might edit her photos into something inappropriate...

This was a ticking time bomb, and Zhang Qiu wouldn't agree to it unless he was a fool.

So, Zhang Qiu was also enraged by these excessive demands and decided to complete the activation task.

Although he impulsively decided to do the task, Zhang Qiu hadn't figured out how to proceed.

"System, if you really exist, give me a hint!"

Zhang Qiu prayed inwardly, not really expecting the system to give him a hint. Just as he was about to open the app to check the task details, a prompt window suddenly appeared on his desktop:

"You have one 'Task Hint' provided by the system. Do you want to use it?"

"Really? There's actually a hint?" Without hesitation, Zhang Qiu clicked "Yes."

Soon, a new prompt window appeared on the screen: "The target is about 360 meters southwest, moving southwest at a speed of about 1 meter per second."

Receiving the hint, Zhang Qiu immediately closed his laptop, put it in his backpack, and ran out of the dormitory, slinging the backpack over his shoulder in less than a second.

The southwest direction of the dormitory was the school's west gate, which was usually closed but opened on weekends to分流人群. Even so, this gate was rarely used because it led to a residential area far from any commercial streets.

People who used this gate were either residents of the area or those taking the bus from outside the residential area. However, the bus stop outside the residential area only had one bus line, so not many people used it.

Zhang Qiu was familiar with the side gate because he was one of the regulars who took the bus from there.

According to the system's hint, Lin Lai was moving southwest. Was she also going to take the bus? Although he didn't think Lin Lai needed to take the bus, what if she was?

Zhang Qiu still considered this possibility first and ran out of the west gate without stopping, heading straight for the bus stop outside the residential area.

When Zhang Qiu, out of breath, finally saw the bus stop in his line of sight, a genderless, emotionless electronic voice suddenly appeared in his mind: "20 meters ahead, beautiful woman (provincial level) detected."

This sudden voice in his head shocked Zhang Qiu. Then, when he looked up and saw a graceful figure, his heart pounded violently, and his whole body tensed.

"It's real! The system is real!"

The figure ahead was none other than Lin Lai, the school beauty he had secretly admired for three years. She was wearing the same clothes he had seen in the hacked photo album recently.

At this moment, Zhang Qiu felt a mix of joy and tears.

However, his heart began to race with anxiety. He was torn between the decision to do something so indecent.

After all, it was a bold and indecent act!

Zhang Qiu was a decent and honest boy, and he was hesitant to do such a vulgar thing.

As he approached the bus stop, his steps felt unsteady, and he seemed to be floating. By the time he reached the bus stop, his face was burning red.

Fortunately, Lin Lai had no interest in Zhang Qiu and didn't even glance at him, or she would have seen his embarrassed state.

Seeing her beautiful face so close, and thinking about the indecent task, Zhang Qiu couldn't bring himself to look at Lin Lai.

Soon, a bus pulled up to the stop. Although this stop had few bus lines and few people, it didn't mean the bus was empty.

Seeing the bus packed with people, Zhang Qiu felt a surge of joy, his eyebrows raising slightly. If anyone saw his expression, they would call him perverted for being happy about a crowded bus.

Zhang Qiu looked at Lin Lai, suddenly worried that she might not get on the bus because of the crowd.

Lin Lai, who usually looked calm, now frowned in disgust and helplessness.

After a moment of internal struggle, just as the bus doors were about to close, Lin Lai stepped forward and softly said, "Wait!" Her voice was soothing and pleasant.

The bus doors opened again, and seeing that the area near the door was empty, she got on the bus.

"GOOD!" Zhang Qiu also seized the opportunity to squeeze on.

Under normal circumstances, Zhang Qiu would have no chance to take advantage of Lin Lai. Lin Lai wouldn't be interested in a guy like him, and he wouldn't dare to grope her in public.

Only on a crowded bus like this would there be a chance for an "accidental" grope. But if it weren't for the system's hint today, Zhang Qiu wouldn't have believed that the noble school beauty would take the bus like an ordinary person.

Following closely behind Lin Lai, Zhang Qiu used the opportunity to dodge the closing doors and quickly pressed his body against hers.

However, Lin Lai was very alert and always on guard against anyone who might crowd her. Although she wasn't specifically targeting Zhang Qiu, she sensed his intentions and moved to the side.

The area near the bus doors could fit about four people, so standing there was relatively spacious, and Lin Lai easily avoided him.

But Zhang Qiu was determined to act unintentionally. Just as Lin Lai was about to move away, he reached out to swipe his card. This action caused him to lose balance, and just as the bus started, everyone in the bus jolted.

Thus, Zhang Qiu finally succeeded in pressing his body against Lin Lai. His hand, which was already prepared, touched her firm, peach-like buttocks through her tight pencil skirt.

At that moment, Zhang Qiu's heart leaped as if it would jump out of his mouth. The intense vibration made his chest ache.

"Success! I've touched the land of my dreams!"

Zhang Qiu's hand fully pressed against Lin Lai's soft, firm buttocks, and he trembled with excitement. Just as he was about to enjoy it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his foot.

Zhang Qiu instinctively suppressed a scream, and sweat immediately broke out on his forehead. The intense pain almost made him cry.

"Damn, she's so fierce! I didn't even get to feel it properly."

Tears streaming down his face, Zhang Qiu squeezed further into the bus, trying to avoid Lin Lai. He couldn't face the pure school beauty he had secretly admired for three years.

Embarrassment burned his cheeks, making him feel lost and wishing he could hide under the bus.

At this moment, a new system prompt relieved his embarrassment.

"Activation task completed. Do you want to claim your reward?"

"No!" It wasn't the right time. Zhang Qiu silently said "No," and it worked.

"System activated. One additional use of the Beauty Radar is granted."

"10 meters ahead, beautiful woman (municipal level) detected."

"Triggered task: Act bravely. Stop a thief from stealing, reward: Computer Proficiency (municipal level); apprehend the thief and turn him over to the police, reward: Computer Proficiency (provincial level)."

The next system prompt left Zhang Qiu speechless.
