Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 54 Because my name is Xiling.

This is the company's internal mailbox, you can't send it without permission.

Lin Bailan did not rashly click on the content of the email, but replied cautiously,
"who are you?"

Hey~
The other side responded instantly.

"I'm Xiling, you can also call me Xiaoling."

Lin Bailan was a little stunned. The other party's honesty was beyond his imagination, so he asked again,
"I'm asking what your identity is and what was in the first email you sent?"

The same second reply,

"I cannot reveal my identity in any form before obtaining authorization. Sorry. That email was a code patch package I deduced about updating the game Civilization."

Lin Bailan knew all these words.

But I don't quite understand it when I put it together.
What does it mean before obtaining authorization?
What does any form mean?
What is a deduced code patch package?

Isn't that thing where you put one at the corresponding place where there is a logical loophole?

Still need to deduce?

Could it be that I met a fool?
But how could a fool bypass the permissions and deliver the email to the company mailbox?

This unscientific!

Lin Bailan sat in front of the computer and fell into deep thought. Finally, she decided to play it safe.
"No matter who you are, I don't trust you. If you're just playing a prank, I advise you to stop! Our Xiling network technology is not weak!"

I sent the email, but the other party didn't reply immediately. It was five minutes later that I replied.

"Are you talking about the trust issue with me?"

This is what it means, but the language structure looks very strange. Who would ask this question?

Lin Bailan, with an inexplicable emotion, replied with two words,
"Yes."

The other side responded again in seconds.

"Why don't you trust me? Are you afraid that I might do something bad to you?"

Is it strange not to trust a stranger? This kind of message would probably be treated as harassment by other people.
But Lin Bailan is different. He has the style of an ancient gentleman, who pays attention to answering every request.

So he replied honestly,

"I'm afraid opening your email will get a virus or give you a chance to hack into the company's intranet."

The other party was silent for half a minute, and then a new email came in.
"I understand. Here are some ways I've come up with to increase your trust in me."

"First, give me an email address that's not related to the company. I'll resend the update package to that email address, and you can open it without hesitation."

"Secondly, after you open it, you can ask an engineer from the Network Technology Department to run a test run of the content. Only load it into the game Civilization after confirming that it's correct."

It was very sudden.
Lin Bailan looked at the reply, puzzled. What was the other party trying to achieve by being so thoughtful?
"Why did you send these to me?"

Second reply,

"First, you are the current chief secretary of Xiling Company. Communicating with you is very efficient."

"Secondly, based on your personality, the probability of you rejecting me is very low."

"Third, Luo Ji would have been the best choice, but his reaction couldn't be confirmed."

"On the whole, sending it to you is the best solution."

These words seemed to convey a strong sense of "I have no choice, I can only choose you." Is Lin Bailan's personality so easy to exploit?!
Lin Bailan was dissatisfied and immediately asked, “Why do you think that my character will make me accept your proposal?!”

On the opposite side,
"Please don't change the logical concept. My choice to send you an email is not an absolute causal relationship, but a relative relationship. You are more likely to accept it than others."

Lin Bailan danced on the keyboard.
"Okay! Even so, what makes you think my personality makes me more likely to accept your proposal?"

"According to undisclosed sources, Lin Bailan's personality traits are conscientious, meticulous, and careful. These traits are advantages, but they can also lead to indecision and a lack of decisiveness. So, overall, you're more likely to accept my emails."

Lin Bailan's pupils suddenly dilated when she saw the last part, and a picture from the depths of her memory flashed out.

That was the boss and his small talk,
"Bai Lan, you are too honest. If someone else were your boss, he would probably eat you up until there is nothing left."

"Your strengths are prudence, self-control, adherence to procedures, and carefulness."

"But don't let these strengths become a cage that binds you, or you'll end up with the opposite, like being hesitant and afraid to make decisions."

"Listen to me, you have to go out and act crazy once in a while so that others can't figure you out."

"Let's go! I'll treat you today. I'll give you a good massage and let you experience the Jiangnan style."

What happened next? It seems that Mr. Jiang left himself at a foot massage parlor, under the pretext of exercising.

Thinking of this,

Lin Bailan suddenly smiled.
But that smile only lasted for a moment, and his expression immediately dimmed. Deep sadness slowly washed over his heart like a tide.
He has no safe haven behind him now.

With a slight sigh, he lost the desire to chat with the other party and said directly,
"Then what's your purpose? Why do you want to patch the Civilization game? Or, in other words, why do you want to help Xiling Company?"

The other party hesitated for a while before replying,

"My goal is to ensure that the game, Civilization, runs fairly and impartially, and to prevent the use of external player code to interfere with the game environment."

"We're helping to patch the game Civilization because we've detected someone exploiting a logic vulnerability in the source code to continuously refresh random missions in the game."

"I helped Xiling Company because my name is Xiling."

Lin Bailan pursed her lips.

What else could he say?
The other party's answer was well-thought-out, to the point, and well-reasoned.
The only drawback is that
No answer.

"Then what benefits will it bring to you by doing this?" Lin Bailan asked in a different tone.

The other party hesitated for a little longer this time, and replied after about a minute.
"Game Civilization is my data source. Maintaining the game environment helps filter out standard information. Otherwise, it is misinformation."

Lin Bailan understood a little after hearing this.
The opponent is most likely a Civilization game player with strong computer skills.
Because I couldn't stand other people cheating, I took the initiative to find him to patch it.
Thinking about it this way, everything seems to make sense. If the other party really has someone who can patch the Civilization game, he is definitely a talent!

When it comes to talents, Lin Bailan has always believed in Jiang Fan's words: use them if you have them, and use them without doubt.

So he wrote after careful consideration,

"I'll have an engineer verify the information in your email. If it's true, I hope we can meet. I'd like to invite you to join the network technology department of Xiling Company."

Lin Bailan waited for more than ten minutes but received no reply, so she sent another one.
"What do you think?"

Still no one answered.

This mysterious man named Xiling suddenly came into his sight.

And disappeared quietly,
There is no way to track her location.

If the email chat records between the two parties were not still there, Lin Bailan would have thought he was hallucinating.
