Chapter 212 Tokyo City People, Congratulations on your Reward! (Ch 212)

Tokyo, a world-renowned prosperous city, now seems to be shrouded in a dark cloud.

The sudden hacker attack brought the city’s order to the brink of collapse and put the lives of many citizens into difficulties.

In an old apartment in Shibuya district, Tomoya was sitting at home with a frown on his face.

In two days, it will be the monthly mortgage payment date, but facing the pitiful balance in the bank card, he and his wife have been unable to sleep for several days in a row.

What’s worse is that Tomoya is unemployed.

“Damn the power outage. I can’t even send out my resume.” Tomoya tapped his laptop in frustration.

Since the hacker attack two days ago, the whole of Tokyo has been in a state of intermittent power outages, and the Internet is sometimes good and sometimes bad. This made Zhiya, who was already unemployed at home, even more anxious.

“Oh, I really hope the end of the world will come soon, so I don’t have to worry about these damn mortgages anymore…” Tomoya said to his wife self-deprecatingly.

The wife sighed weakly and didn’t respond.

At this moment, Tomoya’s phone suddenly lit up. On the screen, a man wearing a hood and a mask suddenly appeared in front of him. It was the hacker who caused ATMs across Tokyo to spit out money crazily that morning – Little Boy.

“Congratulations!” An electronic synthesized voice came from the phone, “You won the jackpot!”

Zhiya was stunned for a moment, and his heart started beating violently.

It was this Little who caused chaos in the entire Tokyo Bank in the morning.

What are you doing now?

Tomoya stared at the phone screen nervously, waiting for what would happen next. However, more than ten minutes passed and nothing happened.

Tomoya was completely confused and had no idea what was going on.

“What is going on? Winning a prize? Is he talking about what prize I won?” He opened his circle of friends with suspicion and found that many people were already discussing this matter.

Many people in the circle of friends received the message “You won a big prize” on their mobile phones, but no one knew what the prize was.

“Does anyone know what prize I won? I’m so anxious!”

“Me too. Are the hackers playing a trick on us?”

“Is it a virus? Why is my phone suddenly getting hot?”

At this moment, a group member with the online name “Lucky Star” suddenly sent a message: “Hahaha, I won a prize! I know what the prize is!”

“What is it? Tell me quickly!” Tomoya asked impatiently.

“Hahaha, my mortgage has been cleared!” Lucky Star replied excitedly.

“What? What mortgage was cleared?!” Zhi didn’t understand either.

“I said my bank mortgage was emptied by hackers, and this is the big prize the hackers mentioned.”

“Ah?” Zhiye was stunned. “How is this possible? Are you kidding?”

“It’s true! I have no need to lie to you. I work in a bank, and the bank’s system has been hacked, and everyone’s mortgage information has been tampered with!” Lucky Star said solemnly.

“Any of you who owes mortgage, please check your account immediately to see if it has really been emptied.

That’s all I can tell you.”

Tomoya wanted to ask how to check it, but the screen of his mobile phone went dark at this moment.

It turned out that there was no electricity.

Tomoya quickly found a mobile charger, plugged his phone into it, and waited for the phone to light up again.

The phone screen finally lit up, and he couldn’t wait to ask again in the group: “@幸运星, how do I check my mortgage information?”

Lucky Star did not reply.

Someone in the group gave a suggestion, “Go to the bank and check it on site!”

Yes, just go to the bank and ask.

There happened to be a bank near Tomoya’s house.

Thinking of this, Zhiye excitedly said to his wife: “Honey, let’s go to the bank. Maybe our mortgage will really be cleared!”

His wife looked at him in astonishment, “Is there such a thing?”

“Everyone in the group is talking about it, it must be true.”

“Husband, don’t be too happy. I don’t think this is reliable.” The wife still didn’t believe it.

“I think it’s possible. This morning, all the ATMs in Tokyo were spewing out money. The news reported that it was done by a hacker. This hacker is so powerful. As mentioned in the group just now, he also hacked into the bank system. The bank’s system must be in chaos now. Maybe he really wiped out our debt!” Zhiye became more and more excited as he spoke.

Although the wife was skeptical, she still followed him out.

The couple came to a nearby bank and saw from afar a lot of people gathered in front of the bank.

“Wow, why are there so many people?” Tomoya wondered.

Looking closely, the bank door was closed. A dozen security guards held hands and formed a human wall at the bank entrance to prevent people from entering.

“What’s going on?” Tomoya stopped a passerby and asked.

The passerby replied: “There is a problem with the banking system and it is temporarily closed.”

Zhi was also dumbfounded.

What should he do? He wants to check his mortgage, but the bank is closed. How can he check it?

Just when Zhiye was at a loss, his wife behind him said, “Husband, several of my friends in my circle of friends are also talking about mortgage issues.”

Upon hearing this, Zhiye leaned over to take a look, and saw that indeed many people were discussing this in his wife’s circle of friends. One of them said that his car loan had been cleared, and that many people’s mortgage and car loans had been cleared.

“Wife, ask your friend how to check mortgage information?”

The wife is asking.

After a while, I got the answer. It can be checked on the bank’s mobile app.

Zhiye logged into the bank app and found the mortgage information section.

I took a deep breath and clicked on the mortgage information.

“Wow, it’s really cleared!” Tomoya shouted excitedly.

He couldn’t believe his eyes and confirmed it several times, and the mortgage information indeed showed zero.

“Very good!”

Zhiya jumped up excitedly, his excitement evident in words.

In contrast, the wife seemed much calmer. She reminded him, “Honey, what if the banking system is restored?”

Zhiya was stunned for a moment.

Yes, the banking system has been restored, so does that mean that I still have to pay off the mortgage?

Zhiye looked up at the closed door of the bank, then looked at the mortgage information displayed on his phone. He suddenly felt confident again and comforted his wife, “Don’t worry, this hacker is so powerful. The bank’s ATM machine hasn’t been restored for a long time. The bank’s system may not be restored for a while. Maybe our mortgage will be wiped out!”

At this moment, Tomoya actually hoped that this hacker was really that powerful.
