Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality

Chapter 1527: Chapter 767: Damn Broken Computer! (Part 2)

Lin Beichen was clearly trying to click the close button, but the computer instead popped up a video.

Instantly, the computer blared out a poorly produced advertisement.

Lin Beichen felt so embarrassed he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

But he quickly thought, Emily must be showering right now, probably can’t hear all this noise.

Need to shut off the video immediately!

Lin Beichen hurried to click the ’X’ in the upper right corner, but the computer was unresponsive, as if it were frozen.

He was frantically trying to deal with the computer while racking his brain for a solution.

Emily had already finished her shower.

After turning off the Water Dragon, she heard strange background music coming from the room.

She quickly dressed, and hurried out to see what was going on, and what Lin Beichen was up to.

Meanwhile, outside, Lin Beichen also noticed Emily was done, as the sound of water had stopped.

A wave of nervousness surged through Lin Beichen’s mind.

In the past, under pursuit by dozens, Lin Beichen never got nervous, but now he was a bundle of nerves.

What should I do now?!

Lin Beichen was mentally debating how to shut the thing down, while continuously clicking the mouse haphazardly on the screen.

At that moment, Emily walked out. She saw no one else in the room, just Lin Beichen sitting in front of the computer, and the previous girl’s voice came from it.

But the voice was so bizarre, Emily couldn’t help but ask, "Lin Beichen, what are you watching? Why is the computer making such weird noises?"

Saying that, Emily approached Lin Beichen, wanting to see what exactly he was doing on the computer.

Lin Beichen suddenly felt his scalp tingle and his mind raced with thoughts, quickly figuring out a plan.

Got it! Just power it off.

Why hadn’t I thought of this move before?

At this thought, Lin Beichen acted swiftly, as Emily was nearly in front of him.

Lin Beichen quickly bent down and pulled the computer’s power cord.

Let’s see how bright this computer can get without power.

Fortunately, it was a desktop. If it were a laptop, Lin Beichen wouldn’t have had a choice.

Predictably, once Lin Beichen pulled the power cord, the computer screen instantly went black.

Seeing this, Lin Beichen breathed a sigh of relief, narrowly avoiding ruining his reputation. He even contemplated whether, if Emily discovered him, he should silence her.

But unbeknownst to him, right before he pulled the power cord, Emily caught a glimpse of the screen.

Though it flashed briefly, she didn’t see clearly what it was, and could only curiously ask, "Lin Beichen, why did you unplug the computer cable?"

"What were you just watching?"

Lin Beichen tried to calm himself, knowing he shouldn’t be the one exposed when no one else was aware yet.

So he randomly explained, "I was watching a movie, but the computer seemed to have a malfunction, and I couldn’t close the video, so I just pulled the power cord."

"I’ll go take a shower now."

Lin Beichen seized the chance to change the subject, "You can play by yourself."

Saying that, Lin Beichen prepared to go into the bathroom. However, just as he was about to enter, he suddenly remembered something.

He turned around seriously and said to Emily, "Oh, don’t turn on the computer, it’s broken, might explode, too dangerous."

He secretly rejoiced in saying that because when he looked back at Emily, he caught her staring curiously at the computer, seemingly ready to plug in the power cord to turn it on.

Having said this, seeing Emily retract her hand in fright, Lin Beichen showed a satisfied expression and confidently entered the bathroom.

Entering the bathroom, Lin Beichen was greeted by a pleasant scent, unsure if it was from the room or remnants from Emily.

The aroma caused Lin Beichen’s imagination to drift.

However, just as Lin Beichen entered the bathroom, Emily suddenly wore a triumphant smile outside.

"I’m not that dumb, explode my foot."

"I must find out what you were watching earlier that scared you so much."

As it turns out, Emily had already noticed Lin Beichen’s odd demeanor earlier, but she pretended not to.

Then, Emily plugged the power cord back into the computer and rebooted it.

After booting, the computer reached the desktop.

With the computer restarting, everything was closed.

"Alas, everything’s gone."

Emily then realized, feeling a bit frustrated.

As she sat in front of the computer, uncertain of how to retrieve what Lin Beichen had looked at earlier.

Her stomach suddenly began rumbling.

Just as Lin Beichen had done before, Emily noticed the menu icon on the computer desktop.

"Oh man, I’m starving, better order takeout to fill up."

Saying this, she wielded the mouse, double-clicked the icon.

As anticipated, Emily, like Lin Beichen, was led to that page.

At first, Emily didn’t react, but once she saw the screen clearly, her face immediately flushed.

"What’s going on here."

Emily mumbled while hurriedly moving the mouse to the close button, aiming to shut the page down.

But what happened next was identical to Lin Beichen’s experience.

Sure enough, the video began playing again.

In an instant, Emily’s ears turned red with embarrassment.

She instinctively glanced at the bathroom where Lin Beichen was showering, relieved seeing no movement inside.

She then hurried to close the video.

But no matter how she clicked, the video wouldn’t close.

At this moment, she suddenly had an epiphany.

A slight smile curved at her lips.

"So that’s what happened." She finally understood what Lin Beichen encountered, and what he was watching.

Especially hearing the familiar sound from the computer, confirming her suspicions.

Afterward, mimicking Lin Beichen’s actions, she bent down and pulled the computer’s power cord.

Shortly, Lin Beichen finished his shower and emerged from the bathroom.

Emily casually asked, "Lin Beichen, are you hungry?"

In truth, Lin Beichen had long been hungry, otherwise he wouldn’t have tried ordering food via the computer earlier.

"Yeah, a bit hungry. You too?"

Lin Beichen replied naturally, having forgotten the previous incident, oblivious to the underlying intent behind Emily’s words.

In hearing Lin Beichen’s response, Emily felt a smug satisfaction of knowing while he remained unaware.

Noticing Emily suddenly fell silent and zoned out, Lin Beichen found her behavior perplexing.

"Why don’t we go out for some dinner?"

Lin Beichen suggested next, thinking dining out would be better since the hotel seemed unreliable, and he had no intention of ordering food via the computer’s app again.

"Mm..." Emily nodded.

Though she had learned about the recent affair, she didn’t know how to bring it up. Revealing it would mean Lin Beichen figured out she’d seen the computer.

The matter had to remain her secret, a way to understand Lin Beichen’s personality better.

Then, they left the hotel, found a little restaurant for dinner.

No chance of dining at a fancy restaurant with their limited funds.

After filling up, Emily checked her purse and dolefully said, "I don’t have money for the next meal now."

Between the hotel and dinner, her wallet was nearly empty, reduced to single digits.

"Tomorrow we’ll have to refuel, Lin Beichen, what do we do?"

Emily’s question left Lin Beichen with a headache. The saying about money breaking a hero suddenly proved true, and he found it remarkably relatable now.

Seriously, resort to robbery?

Doing so would mean mingling with criminals.

While Lin Beichen pondered options, Emily suddenly blurted out without any lead-in.
