<h4>Chapter 257 Chapter 257: Competition </h4>


    ''The reason I was able to enter Dream Zero ahead of time was thanks to Keyji''s wealthy second-generation connections, which allowed me to bridge a connection with the ck Fire Gang and make a "ck Dream" transaction at the Night Charm Bar.''


    ''Afterward, with 86 cracking the ck Fire Gang''s dream terminal, I got not only a "one-time" login anchor for Dream Zero but unexpectedly gathered some intelligence. I myself didn''t expect to gain ess afterward when 86 had cracked the ck Fire Gang''s dream terminal''


    These people of the ck Fire Gang really did not have any good intentions. While selling Keyji the ck Dream, they also inserted a backdoor into the dream terminal of Keyji and imnted a virus program. As soon as Keyji wore it, these viruses could creep into his electronic devices.


    Then, as long as Keyji gets in Kael Technology again, the ck Fire Gang can rely on the body of Keyji to steal inside Kael Technology especially during the press conference two dayster.


    From what was decrypted by 86 from the meeting records of the ck Fire Gang, their ultimate purpose is to sabotage this press conference even to snatch the brand on the spot!


    Before this, Renji was not so sure to set foot into Dream Zero so early again, thus he temporarily put this intelligence aside.


    But now.


    "86, can you further specialize these program viruses? Then change the setting such that they are unable to recognize who is the person wearing it."


    ''Well, I''m just jumping into the wagon since the ck Fire Gang is also targeting the press conference of this case. So, I''m going to assist them by leaking the intelligence of Kael Technology''


    ''This way, the bigger themotion ck Fire Gang causes at the press conference, the better for me. I can use them even as my scapegoat to let not just snatch the brand but also open and above board in Kael Technology''


    An idea quickly formed in Renji''s mind.


    Of course.


    The main reason why Renji would still instruct 86 to modify the setting "wearer''s" was that he doesn''t want Keyji to bite on this matter. After all, such a n was apt to evolve into a shootoutter on.


    Renji has known Keyji for a short time, and, although he doesn''t particrly value the way he lives, he feels that inside him. He''s a kind man. Additionally, this has to be in line with the pledge he made when he purchased the Dream Terminal with his help. Exining this what will happentter to Keyji''s sister would be challenging.


    ''After modification by 86, in the eyes of the ck Fire Gang, they still think that Keyji was kept in the dark as their undercover in carrying their virus and helping to steal thepany''s intelligence but the actual operator is myself''


    At the press conference, Keyji would have returned to Sin City by now and not enter Kael Technology. Subsequently, if the ck Fire Gang wants to continue investigating, he wouldn''t be found.


    The re-encoding of the virus by 86 of the ck Fire Gang was fast, it took less than quarter an hour toplete, and it was just turning seven in the morning.


    Renji approached the window of the hotel, waved his hand, and electronic curtains automatically spread to the sides, opening a beautiful view on the towering skyscrapers reflected in the morning sun.


    The streets were overcrowded, and employees from all sorts ofpanies flocked busily and stressfully to their ces of work clutching brief cases in their hands.


    Renji then encouraged Eileen to soon wash as well as change clothes. Since he was one of the official employees of Kael Technology, it certainly is proper that he also take part in experiencing the first day going to work.


    Staring into the mirror, he straightened his cor and finally wore the gray coat given to him by Lena. Eileen beside him, however, was so excited to the point of changing into Kael Technology''s employee uniform next to him, even asking 86 if they were able to take pictures together to send to her motherter in the Holy Kingdom.


    For all, employment in a superpany is no doubt the greatest wish and constion for most parents belonging to any normal family structure.


    Since being a schr advisor, Renji was part of the minor management team added to Kael Technology, hence he had no need to squeeze into the subway or the bus like the rest in general. Even right outside the hotel, a dedicated autonomous taxi would be waiting for him.


    ….


    Not far from Kael Technology, the hotel was located, and after some minutes of driving, Renji found himself walking in through the entrance with Eileen.


    Since it was a major techpany, employees had to be vetted and scanned before they entered inside.


    However, the sensible security personnel of Kael Technology, on seeing that thepany car is dropping Renji, were treated far better than normal employees, including bows and smiles.


    And once they checked Renji''s employee ID card, they promptly let him pass.


    Going straight through the lobby to the main lift, he saw a lot of people dressed in research uniforms, hurrying along with lots of documents, busy to the hilt. He met a few who enthusiastically came forward to greet him. Renji nced at their badges, they were all from the level of the team leader and above, including some deputy ministers.


    And their intentions were very simple.


    "Eh? You are Doctor Renji, yes? Long heard of your great reputation. Your several papers have been a big help to our group''s project. I wonder if we could invite you"


    "Dr. Renji, it''s an honor! Our group has a topic that I think fits you perfectly. What do you think?"


    "Please, can I have some of your time Dr. Renji? if you join our project then our minister has promised to give you more 30% resources from thepany''s highest-levelboratory. His contact is…."


    "Doctor Renji is so young! How to go to Night Charm for a drink after work today? I''ll invite you, but it''s just the two of us alone~. Just want to have some in-depth chat with you "


    Eileen red and scared away the woman who was crazily flirting with Renji, still angry as a tigress. As for the woman? She treated her like air.


    This small incident alonepletely made clear to Renji thatpetition inside Kael Technology is severe.


    The reason so many people are seeking him out now is definitely not a coincidence.


    Apparently, the news of William having sessfully poached from Sin City had somehow leaked out and thus this is why most people within thepany were waiting in the lobby specifically for schrs like him who joined thepany only yesterday.


    This ss of schrs is normally easy to spot because like Renji, they dress in their own style and hence do not put onpany work then go, therefore standing out in the crowd.


    Renji remembered that Lena''s fake resume for him was modest enough, medium but so many people were rushing out to recruit him in their projects so openly, it shows that this is not a unitedpany. Different factions and even each project are not really friendly at each other.


    Where there are interests - in fact, there ispetition. The resources and positions in thepany are limited, and all of them want to climb up in thepany, so open internal strife should be doomed to ur.


    ''Maybe this may grow into an ace that I could make use of in the future…''


    Silently nning to pay more attention to the factionalposition inside Kael Technology regarding his activities, Renji finally managed to escape from the crowd and took the main elevator for the research department under William''s management.


    As soon as Renji put a swipe at the entrance, he heard Professor Einstein considering "an old master" of the ancient academic world of Sin City to be leading far ahead of first assistants and other schrs in a heated discussion about Emperor Ashen.
