Chapter 232 - 232 Eugene Corporation
Fortunately, no matter which faculty the students were from, they were all talented, and the performances they put up were all very exciting. Although the audience sat and watched for three hours, they were not bored at all.
Qiao Yue’s class sat on the second floor of the hall on the left, very close to the students from St. Faustina’s Institution.
St. Faustina’s was founded by Catholic priests, so the students’ uniforms looked like monk robes. With all sorts of outfit under their robes, the students looked like transmigrators.
Qiao Yue scanned the representatives from St. Faustina’s, searching for the gaze that made her uncomfortable earlier.
Soon, her eyes were locked on the boy she saw from backstage.
The dim lighting accentuated his side profile. His facial features were exquisite, and he looked charming and a little androgynous.
Qiao Yue’s memory was very good and she could remember faces, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen this boy before.
Feeling her gaze, the boy also looked back at Qiao Yue and gave her a polite smile.
“You know that person?” Qiao Yu asked.
“Which person?”
“The one who dyed his hair brown from St. Faustina’s.”
“I don’t.” Qiao Yue shook her head.
“His name is Oswald and he’s from D-Country. He was the one who attacked our school network.”
The boy could also feel Qiao Yu’s gaze on him and smiled back politely at Qiao Yu.
“Fourth brother, what’s this person’s background?”
Qiao Yu accessed the school forum on his phone and showed a post to Qiao Yue.
One wouldn’t know if they didn’t look, but this Oswald boy had already set off a heated discussion on the Harvey forum.
Qiao Yue clicked on the post. It was an ID photo of Oswald. He had an east-west, mixed-blood face, light brown hair, and a small mole at the corner of his right eye.
“Mixed-blood?”
Qiao Yue continued to scroll down.
Gossip spread extremely quickly at Harvey. Oswald’s family background had already been uncovered.
Oswald seemed to be connected to the political big shots of D-Country. His family business was also very mysterious, and his status in D-Country was extremely high. His mother was from C-Country. He came to St. Faustina’s in C-Country on a student exchange program to fulfill his mother’s wish for him to visit his other hometown.
Qiao Yue looked at the company name of his family business. It was Eugene Corporation, a big name in D-Country. The Eugene family was a family that must not be underestimated in D-Country.
Many big-wigs in business and politics came from this family. Anyone of status was somehow connected to this family. It could be said that this family had a monopoly on half of the wealth and talent in D-Country.
It was rumored that Andy was also closely connected to the Eugene’s. The family funded his campaign when he ran for member of parliament.
Qiao Yue looked at the information on the phone and frowned. She had heard about the Eugene’s from the Godfather.
This family had been in control of D-Country’s economy and that of several nearby countries for centuries. Although many people opposed their monopoly, they could not help but acknowledge the power that the Eugene’s held.
The Godfather’s tone was always filled with dissatisfaction when he spoke about the Eugene’s. For some reason, he hated the Eugene’s.
In addition to his family background, Oswald also had an impressive resume in D-Country. He was a genius hacker and had won many hackathons in D-Country.
Compared to YQ, Oswald was younger, but he rose faster. Many people predicted that Oswald would surpass YQ very soon.
Moreover, unlike hackers like YQ, who hid their identities all year round, Oswald was very high-profile because of his family background. He had launched many malicious attacks against other hackers.
His moniker in the hacker world was “Bad Child”.
Many hackers needed to put in a lot of effort to complete a mission, and these missions were related to their survival. But Oswald often hacked into other people’s systems as a prank. He would make them think that their hard work had gone to waste, and then he would help them recover their systems.
This kind of attack didn’t do much damage, but it was very insulting.
