“Aren’t these types very complete?” Shan Chen scratched his head in confusion, unable to understand Shan Yue’s goal.

The two of them circled the computer city for about ten minutes. Finally, Shan Yue stopped in front of an extremely small computer shop with messy accessories.

Shan Yue confirmed the name of the shop again and nodded in satisfaction.

A young man with messy hair and unshaven beard crawled out from behind the pile of cardboard boxes as soon as he saw a customer. He narrowed his eyes and sized up the siblings before grinning. “You want to buy a computer? My shop looks dilapidated, but it’s not cheap.”

Hearing this person’s words, Shan Chen immediately looked a little embarrassed. He took a small step back and lowered his voice to persuade Shan Yue, “Sister, it’s obvious that this person isn’t doing business seriously. The shop is also broken. Why don’t we buy it from another shop?”

Shan Chen’s voice was not loud, but it was still heard by the young shop owner at the side. He snorted and said, “If you want to buy a computer and not be scammed, keep walking forward. The two shops around the corner are economical and affordable. It’ll satisfy your needs.”

Such a tone indicated that he treated Shan Yue and her brother as poor students who did not have much money and still pursued cost-effectiveness.

Shan Yue was not angry at all. She patted Shan Chen’s shoulder with a smile and explained, “Don’t be anxious. This boss misunderstood our intentions and deliberately wanted to chase us away. After all, they don’t do ordinary business here.”

“What do you mean?” The shop owner was stunned.

Shan Yue first sized up the orderly shop in the chaos before looking up at the inquisitive shop owner. “Your name is Guo Hu, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. Wait, how did you know?” The shop owner looked surprised. In his eyes, Shan Yue was just a fat student who did not look very smart. It was really unbelievable that she could know his real name.

Seeing that Shan Yue was only touching her chin with a mysterious smile, Guo Hu immediately stood up straight. “Young lady, how do you know me? You’re not simple.”

In fact, Shan Yue had found out about Guo Hu at the last minute this morning. The accessories she needed could not be bought on the formal market. They were technological accessories that were prohibited from circulating in the Federation. Guo Hu was such an accessories dealer who only did illegal business. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

In the current Federation, there were huge restrictions on the technological items that the public could use. What could be bought on the market were all low-end technologies, far less than half of the real technology level. Under such circumstances, the computers bought through official channels could not run the intrusion program designed by Shan Yue.

Shan Yue had hacked into Guo Hu’s private purchase order through hacking technology. Only then was she certain that Guo Hu had everything she needed. As soon as she entered the computer city, she went straight to Guo Hu’s shop.

Without answering Guo Hu’s question, Shan Yue frowned and said, “Boss Guo, I want a lot of things. You’d better take something and note it down.”

“Oh, okay.”

At this point, Guo Hu understood that Shan Yue was definitely not as stupid and harmless as she looked. He also perked up and took a small notebook. He could not help but remind her, “This thing of mine is five points more expensive than others. Recently, the Federation has been very strict. Business is not easy, so we have to collect more hard work fees.”

“Of course.” Shan Yue nodded.

What kind of computer did she buy that actually involved federal control and hard work fees? Shan Chen’s eyes widened. He vaguely felt that he had seen an unknown side of his sister.

“Use any old model from a few years ago for the appearance. It’s best if it’s black and low-key. Get me two motherboards first. One was removed from the Federation’s guard NH03 robot last year, and the other is the yellow QIOP-112 from black market …” Shan Yue spoke clearly and quickly reported her needs.
