Peninsula: These female celebrities are all so neurotic.

Chapter 77 The System! Holy crap! (Please subscribe)

The Shiguang Coffee Shop was so warm and cozy before it closed.

The clock struck 9:40. Liu Zimu wiped the last few cups clean and placed them upside down on the cup holder.

Lee Ji-ah and Kim Myung-ho had already left, and Kim Qiu-tian, that little traitor from Korea, had finished her homework by nine o'clock and asked Liu Zheng-hua to take her home on the way.

Now he's the only one left in the shop.

Just as he was about to turn off the stereo, the wind chimes suddenly rang.

Liu Zimu looked up.

A woman walked in through the door, wearing a beige cashmere coat, a black crew neck sweater, jeans, and canvas shoes.

Her black baseball cap was pulled low over her head, and her mask was pulled down to her chin, revealing a small, round face that was so white it seemed to glow.

Kim Ji-won.

Liu Zimu was stunned for a moment when he recognized her.

This person came by a few days ago, watched him for a while, then ordered an iced Americano and left in less than two minutes.

He hasn't forgotten the way she looked at him back then.

Seeing her arrive again, this woman must have something on her mind.

"Kim Ji-won, we're about to close." He calmed himself down, trying to sound composed, and spoke as if he were greeting any other customer.

But Kim Ji-won didn't answer him.

She stood at the door without moving, her fingers gripping the hem of her coat tightly, so tightly that the coat was pulled askew to one side.

She glanced at him, then her eyes swept around the empty shop. After confirming that no one else was there, her lips suddenly began to tremble.

Liu Zimu frowned. "I didn't do anything to you, did I?"

Strangely, when the woman saw that Liu Zimu remained silent, tears suddenly streamed down her face, and her whole body began to tremble.

Cried.

She was crying very loudly, as if she was terrified.

She didn't raise her hand to wipe away her tears; the tears flowed even more freely until her beautiful face was covered in tears.

Liu Zimu was stunned, completely stunned.

He stood behind the bar, watching a popular actress, the so-called "national flower of the peninsula" in his previous life, standing in front of him crying as if she had lost her soul.

There was only one thought in my mind.

Really! I really didn't do it!

This doesn't make sense! I know her, but she shouldn't know me!

This is the second time we've met! We didn't exchange a single word the first time we met.

Holy crap! Do all these women from the peninsula have some kind of hidden crybaby gene?

"Um... Kim Ji-won?" he called tentatively, "Don't cry!"

The woman ignored him.

He went to get a carton of milk to hand over.

A minute later, Kim Ji-won finally looked up at him, her eyes red from crying, and the tip of her nose was also red.

She sniffed, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "You...you're Liu Zimu, right?"

"Yes, it is. But how do you know me?" Liu Zimu was confused. He picked up a bottle of milk and walked over to her.

"That night," she choked up before continuing, "do you remember that night? The night that big news broke, global news, all at the same time... You did it, didn't you?"

The milk in Liu Zimu's hand fell to the ground.

Splat!

Seeing his reaction, Kim Ji-won cried even harder, squatting on the ground, her shoulders sobbing, the hem of her coat sweeping the ground and picking up some dust.

"I knew it! I knew it was you," she buried her face in her arms, her whole body trembling even more violently. "I knew it was you who did it..."

'

Liu Zimu took a deep breath, locked the door, and pulled over a chair to place next to Kim Ji-won.

Kim Ji-won seemed terrified by his actions, trembling even more violently: "You! You're going to kill me to silence me? Liu Zimu, I'm warning you, I've already written my will. If anything happens to me, the police will arrest you..."

"6

"Hey! You're really weird. Sit down first. Why would I kill you?" The thought of killing him to silence him did flash through Liu Zimu's mind, but he put it aside for the time being.

Kim Ji-won didn't move; instead, she shifted to the side and squatted down, curling up into a ball.

How should I put it? They were just pitiful.

Liu Zimu bent down and gently tugged at her sleeve.

She trembled with shock. Seeing that Liu Zimu didn't intend to kill her, she raised her head, her face covered in tears and snot.

Her pitiful appearance is completely unrelated to the glamorous roles she plays in TV dramas.

"Get up, the ground is cold," he said again.

Kim Ji-won looked up and carefully examined Liu Zi-mu before standing up. Her legs were numb from squatting, and she stumbled, grabbing Liu Zi-mu's arm to steady herself.

She didn't speak immediately after sitting down, but just looked down at her canvas shoes.

Liu Zimu poured her another glass of warm water, placed it on the table, sat down opposite her, and waited for a while before speaking.

"What did you mean by 'that night' you just mentioned?"

Kim Ji-won picked up her water glass and took a sip. Her hand was still shaking, and water splashed onto her coat, but she didn't wipe it off.

She put down her cup, took a deep breath as if making a major decision, and began, "That night, I was sitting at my desk at home, reading a script."

Her voice suddenly turned panicked: "You know what? Suddenly, my hand just wouldn't obey me."

Liu Zimu frowned: "Not obeying your orders?"

Kim Ji-won nodded very seriously, her eyes fixed on her hands, still somewhat afraid to look at him.

"My hands just wouldn't be under my control. They turned on the computer by themselves, and then their fingers started typing on the keyboard. It wasn't me typing; they were moving on their own, very quickly. I wanted to stop, but I couldn't stop at all. My hands weren't my hands anymore."

She sounded panicked and extremely scared when she said this!

"I watched as my hand opened a page, not a browser, but something I'd never seen before. Then the files started uploading—the evidence, Lee Seung-ri's, Jung Joon-young's, and those of the big shots..."

They were all sent out from my location.

Liu Zimu's breath hitched for several beats: "And then?"

"Then I started hacking into the systems of major media outlets in various countries around the world." Kim Ji-won's voice began to tremble violently. "BBC, Japanese media, French media... more than two hundred media outlets all over the world, I hacked into them one by one and put that news on the front page."

She looked up at Liu Zimu, her eyes red-rimmed and her pupils filled with extreme panic.

"Liu Zimu! I'm not a hacker. I'm slow at typing, let alone programming. But... but that night, I watched with my own eyes as my hands breached the firewalls of more than two hundred media outlets around the world... and they still couldn't find me at all."

Liu Zimu leaned back in his chair, completely stunned, staring blankly at the lights in the coffee shop.

The light from the incandescent bulb hurt his eyes, but he didn't look away.

system!

What the hell are you doing?!

I'll fucking swear!

He cursed the system's ancestors for eighteen generations in his mind, including the systems of other transmigrators.

Did you son of a bitch even consider me your host?

He said he could use the global release card whenever he wanted, and I thought the system would automatically match the release channels. But look what you've got, Mr. Tongzi!

So they just grabbed a conscript from nearby? And it was Kim Ji-won? No wonder I thought the release schedule was so slow!

Liu Zimu remained silent for a long, long time before finally asking, "Then how did you know it was me?"

"After everything was over, a photo popped up," Kim Ji-won's voice was ethereal, like she was sleepwalking, "It was your face. It only showed up for five seconds before disappearing, but I remembered it perfectly."

Liu Zimu dragged the system out of the wood again and lashed out at it for a while: "Then how did you find me?"

"Because I saw the video of you cooking on the set of 'Running Man,' and I also saw the video of you interacting with Rosé in BLACKPINK." Kim Ji-won sniffed. "You know what? That night, I spent the whole night searching online to find all this information. The next day, I came to confirm it, but there were just too many people that day. I... I didn't dare to say anything!"

Liu Zimu's lips twitched several times. No wonder he felt that Kim Ji-won's gaze towards him was so complicated.

But system, you really are inhuman!

The shop became quiet.

The only thing playing was "Fantastic Baby" randomly from the speakers.

"Boom shakalaka! Boom shakalaka!"

"Damn! Even the music is laughing at me? Mocking me?"

Liu Zimu cursed at the stereo and slammed it off.

Then he walked back and stared at Kim Ji-won for a long time, which startled Kim Ji-won so much that she quickly shrank back.

"Hey! What are you afraid of?"

Kim Ji-won paused, her lips moved, and she almost couldn't speak: "Oh! What are you afraid of?... This is beyond my comprehension, how can I not be afraid? Liu Zimu... are you a ghost? Like one in the drama 'Goblin'!"

"Do I look like it?" Liu Zimu opened his mouth speechlessly.

He suddenly moved closer, startling Kim Ji-won so much that she curled up into a ball, covering her head and screaming, "Don't eat me! Don't eat me!"

Liu Zimu pursed her lips, feeling that she might have gone a bit too far.

Look how scared she is!

He stood up somewhat regretfully and patted her on the shoulder: "Hey! Sorry, I'm just a normal person. I was just teasing you. I'm not some kind of ghost!"

Kim Ji-won opened her mouth and cried. She cried very sadly and pitifully, and a snot bubble even came out of her nose.

"Are you sure you're not lying to me? Do you know? Ever since that night, I've had nightmares every night, dreaming of those things being handed over, dreaming of those beasts staring at me when they were caught, dreaming of you..."

'

She couldn't continue, and covered her face with her hands again, her shoulders starting to tremble.

Liu Zimu stood up, walked behind the bar, poured another glass of warm water, brought it over, placed it in front of her, and then pushed the tissue box over: "Wipe your face first."

Kim Ji-won grabbed two tissues and wiped her face haphazardly, making her mascara smudge even more, leaving her eyes with streaks of black and white, looking like she had been beaten up, and terribly disheveled.

She didn't dare move to throw the tissue away, so she crumpled it into a ball and held it in her hand.

But soon, snot and tears started flowing again, covering his face once more.

Looking at her like this, Liu Zimu was also very troubled: "What are you planning to do?"

Is this damn system just giving him nothing to do, or is it complaining that he's been having too much of a time lately?

Just like Jin Qiutian said, how come he always seems to have a connection with female celebrities?

Isn't this it?

He just didn't want this kind of fate!
