Initially, the company's NN server was attacked by hackers, causing the entire system to crash.

This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to a company that relies on information technology to operate.

Kitahara Makoto immediately assembled his technical team and went all out to carry out emergency repairs and restoration work.

However, just when they were working frantically, the power suddenly went out, followed by that terrifying fire.

Kitahara Makoto still feels lingering fear when he recalls the scene of the fire.

He clearly remembers that the venue was in chaos, with reporters and staff scattering in panic.

As the company's president, he not only had to maintain order but also ensure the safe evacuation of everyone.

With the assistance of the bodyguard team, they finally managed to safely evacuate everyone outside the building.

However, looking back now, Kitahara Makoto begins to doubt whether it was all too much of a coincidence.

Hacker attacks, power outages, and fires—these events have occurred one after another. Are they really just simple accidents?

Kitahara Makoto felt increasingly uneasy as he thought about it, a strong sense of unease rising within him.

Just then, assistant Li Hua came to Kitahara Makoto's office with a heavy heart and reported the news to him with a solemn expression.

Li Hua's voice was deep and powerful as he said:

"President, after the firefighters' investigation, we learned that this fire was not an accident, but was caused by a short circuit in the electrical wiring."

"This means that there may be some criminals within our company who are deliberately trying to compromise the company's security."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Makoto frowned, a flash of anger crossing his eyes. He asked in a deep voice:

"What evidence do we have? We need to find solid evidence to find out the truth."

Li Hua nodded and continued:

"Firefighters found some suspicious clues at the scene, and they are investigating further."

"At the same time, the nn server technology department also had a clue. After their analysis, the reason why the server was hacked was most likely that someone inside leaked relevant information."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Makoto felt a strong sense of unease.

He realized that the incident might be more complex and serious than he had imagined. He took a deep breath and calmly considered his options.

"We must find out the truth as soon as possible and find out who is behind this."

Kitahara Makoto said in a deep voice,

"At the same time, we will strengthen internal security measures to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again."

After listening to Li Hua's report, Kitahara Makoto sat down at his desk with a solemn expression, his hands clenched into fists, and his eyes shining with determination.

0.......

He knew that this incident not only caused huge losses to the company, but also exposed serious problems within the company.

For the company's long-term development, he had to take decisive action, starting with cleaning up the company's internal personnel.

He convened an emergency meeting with the company's senior management.

At the meeting, he solemnly explained the seriousness and impact of the incident and made it clear that a thorough investigation of the company's internal personnel was necessary to uncover all potential hidden dangers.

"Our company cannot tolerate any betrayal or sabotage."

Kitahara Makoto's voice was firm and powerful.

"From now on, we will conduct rigorous background checks and vetting of all employees, and we will not hesitate to take legal action against any suspicious individuals."

Chapter 135 Internal Liquidation

At the same time, Kitahara Makoto requested the human resources department to immediately initiate a background check procedure to conduct a comprehensive investigation of all employees' resumes, conduct, social relationships, etc.

He also instructed the security department to strengthen the company's security measures to ensure the company's operational safety during the investigation.

After the meeting, Kitahara Shin kept Li Hua behind. Inside the office, their conversation was deep and serious.

Kitahara Makoto frowned, looking at Li Hua and saying, "207..."

“Li Hua, this incident has exposed problems within the company. We must act immediately, starting with a thorough investigation of our personnel.”

Li Hua nodded and said firmly:

"I understand, Mr. President. I will immediately instruct HR to initiate background checks and conduct rigorous screenings of all employees."

Kitahara Shin took a deep breath and continued:

"At the same time, we must also strengthen the company's security to ensure the company's operational safety during the investigation. I do not want any more accidents to occur."

Li Hua expressed his agreement:

"Yes, President. I will work closely with the security department to ensure the company's safety and stability."

Kitahara Makoto was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke:

“Li Hua, I know you’ve always worked very hard, and this incident has been a big blow to you. But I believe you have the ability to handle this, and I need your help.”

Li Hua looked at Kitahara Makoto, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes:

"President, I will do my best to live up to your trust."

Kitahara Shin nodded and patted Li Hua on the shoulder:

"Okay, let's do it seriously."

Because he rushed to the company in the morning to hold a press conference, Kitahara Shin didn't have time to eat breakfast. He just quickly drank a sip of coffee and then threw himself into his busy work.

At this moment, Kitahara Makoto sat in his spacious and bright office, feeling extremely hungry. His chest seemed to be pressed against his back, and the emptiness made him frown.

He rubbed his eyes, which were sore from staring at the computer screen for so long, and sighed wearily.

Looking up at Li Hua standing opposite him, Kitahara Makoto rubbed his hands together vigorously, trying to dispel the chill that emanated from his fingertips.

His voice was slightly hoarse, but his tone was firm:

"Li Hua, you follow up on the internal personnel investigation and make sure that every step is rigorous and error-free... The future of the company is in our hands."

Li Hua nodded in agreement, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

Kitahara Makoto stood up, walked to the window, took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, and let the cool breeze caress his cheeks.

He closed his eyes, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart. After a moment, he opened his eyes, his gaze revealing a resolute determination.

Turning back to his desk, Kitahara Makoto picked up the car keys and said to Li Hua:

"I'm going out for a meal to replenish my energy. Report to me immediately if there's any progress here."

After saying that, he strode out of the office, walked through the long corridor, and arrived at the company's parking lot.

Kitahara Makoto walked to his car, opened the door, and got in.

After starting the vehicle, he drove out of the company gate and headed towards the hotel he frequented.

Throughout the journey, Kitahara Makoto's mind remained preoccupied with thoughts about the company's internal issues.

He gripped the steering wheel tightly, his fingers turning slightly white from the force.

His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were resolute, as if telling himself that no matter how great the difficulties, he would persevere.

Chapter 136 An Accidental Encounter with Miss Haruko

Kitahara Makoto drove his car, his mind filled with thoughts, and finally arrived at the hotel he frequented.

"Yu Pin Xuan"

The hotel building stands on the street corner, elegant and dignified.

Kitahara Makoto slowly drove into the hotel's parking lot entrance, where a parking attendant in a uniform quickly approached.

With a smile, the parking attendant used professional gestures to guide Kitahara Makoto to park his car in the designated parking space.

Kitahara Makoto gently pressed the brake, and the car came to a steady stop in the parking space.

The parking attendant quickly stepped forward, politely opened the car door, and said to the 24-hour attendant:

"Mr. Kitahara, welcome. Your car is parked safely, please rest assured."

Kitahara Shin nodded and thanked him:

"Thank you, you've gone to a lot of trouble." He stepped out of the car and handed the car keys to the parking attendant.

The parking attendant took the keys and said respectfully:

“Mr. Kitahara, I will keep your car keys safe and ensure the vehicle’s security. I will return the keys to you promptly when you leave.”

Kitahara Makoto expressed his gratitude again, then turned and walked towards the hotel entrance.

As he walked, he admired the hotel's carefully arranged flowers and landscaping, enjoying the tranquil and elegant atmosphere.

Stepping into the hotel lobby, Kitahara Makoto navigated the elegantly decorated space with practiced ease and arrived at the restaurant.

Along the way, he encountered several hotel employees who smiled and nodded at him, and he politely returned their greetings.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, he walked to his usual seat, gently pulled out a chair, and sat down.

The waiter greeted us warmly and asked:

"Mr. Kitahara, would you like to order the same dishes again?"

Kitahara Makoto nodded and said with a smile:

"Yes, please."

After the waiter left, Kitahara Makoto closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and savored the warm and tranquil atmosphere of the restaurant.

Kitahara knew that he needed to relax at this time and give his body and mind a short rest.

Soon, the dishes were served one after another. Kitahara Makoto began to savor the food, and every bite brought him unprecedented satisfaction and happiness.

"I heard that a new coffee shop recently opened near the hotel and it has a very good reputation."

The waiter who was responsible for making tea for Kitahara Makoto said this as he poured the tea for him.

Kitahara Shin raised his head slightly, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes:

"Really? I'd like to try it sometime."

After chatting for a while, Kitahara Makoto felt a little more relaxed.

Kitahara knew that although such casual conversations seemed insignificant, they could subtly relieve his inner pressure.

After finishing his meal, Kitahara Makoto felt relaxed and rejuvenated, both physically and mentally.

He stood up, preparing to leave the restaurant and head to the parking lot.

He walked through the restaurant's corridor 207 and headed towards the hotel entrance.

Just as he was about to step out of the restaurant, Kitahara Makoto's gaze was suddenly drawn to a familiar figure.

He stopped and looked closely. It turned out to be Haruko, the resident singer of the bar who had invited him to sing on stage that day.

Haruko wore a simple yet stylish dress, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders, exuding a natural beauty.

Her face was beaming with a warm smile, and she looked very approachable.

Kitahara smiled, somewhat surprised, and stepped forward to greet him:

"Miss Haruko, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

Chapter 137 Alibaba Chairman's Call

Haruko turned around and saw Kitahara Shinya looking pleasantly surprised.

"Mr. Kitahara, hello! I didn't expect to run into you here. I hope I didn't interfere with your work last time."

Kitahara Shin shook his head:

"No, no, it's nothing."

The two stood at the restaurant entrance and chatted casually.

Haruko had come here today to attend a friend's birthday party, but she never expected to run into Kitahara Makoto.

The two chatted for a while.

Time passed by unnoticed, and Kitahara Makoto glanced at his watch, realizing it was time to leave.

He said goodbye to Haruko and expressed his hope to meet her again someday.
