4: Chapter 4: Hacking Skills Overwhelm, Unlocking the Future of AI!

Having never applied Amplification to electronic products before, Chen Fan was curious to see what the result would be.

"Then I'll try Amplifying this phone first to see the effect." He gripped the phone in his hand as the notification sound rang out in his mind once more.

[Item detected: One scrapped mobile phone. Proceed with Amplification?]

"Confirm."

[Command confirmed! Scrapped phone has triggered a 100,000-fold Amplification: future smart brain (Equipped with the Super-Star Civilization System; can unlock top-tier hacking technology, global data access, an intelligent analysis system, and infinite battery life).]

A 100,000-fold Amplification? Did I hear that right! 100,000-fold is the system's maximum multiplier. Chen Fan's curiosity reached its peak, wondering what kind of result this would produce.

Chen Fan felt the broken phone in his hand suddenly vibrate. Immediately after, the shattered screen actually repaired itself, emitting a blue glow. The scratches and deformations on the casing vanished instantly, replaced by a texture similar to liquid metal. It felt warm and smooth in his hand, brimming with a futuristic aesthetic—it was as advanced as a product from the future.

When the screen lit up, there was no tedious startup interface. Instead, a simple holographic projection floated in the air, forming a virtual light screen displaying a line of text: [future smart brain activated. Bound to host Chen Fan. At your service anytime.]

"Holy crap... this is just insane!" Chen Fan's eyes widened as he stared at the holographic screen before him, his heart racing.

A max-level Amplification turned a scrapped phone directly into a future smart brain, complete with top-tier hacking skills and global data access? With this, I can do whatever I want without anyone standing in my way.

"Let me test the functions first to see if it's as powerful as the system says." Chen Fan thought to himself, "Access the global database and look up dirt on my former supervisor, Zhang Lei."

[Command received. Connecting to the global network... Connection successful. Retrieving data related to Zhang Lei... Please wait.]

Dense information instantly appeared on the virtual light screen. It didn't just contain evidence of Zhang Lei exploiting employees and stealing credit at the company; there were also records of him embezzling public funds, taking bribes, and even chat logs and transfer receipts regarding illicit relationships with female colleagues. Even his secret private stash of money was clearly exposed.

"Awesome!" Chen Fan was once again stunned speechless. This future smart brain was not only efficient, but its data was also incredibly comprehensive—it was practically a walking super-database.

While Chen Fan was browsing the data and enjoying the gossip, he actually stumbled upon some dirt regarding himself! It turned out the reason his performance had been at the bottom for the past three months was that Li Zeyu had teamed up with Zhang Lei to sabotage him behind his back, all to kick him out of the company and steal Zhang Ya away!

The more Chen Fan read, the angrier he became. To think they used such despicable means against him—this was absolutely intolerable. "Zhang Lei, Li Zeyu, just you wait. One day, I'll settle the score with you both, with interest!"

He closed the virtual light screen, tucked the future smart brain into his pocket, and turned to walk toward his rental apartment. Now that he had money and a super cheat-like tool, it was time to settle things with that snobbish landlord once and for all.

Arriving downstairs at his rental apartment, he happened to run into the landlord, Auntie Wang, showing a young man around. She was likely looking for a new tenant to rent out the place.

Chen Fan felt a surge of anger. Today, he had to stand up for himself. Not only would he terminate the lease, but he would also teach the landlord a lesson and get every single cent of his deposit back.

Chen Fan pulled the future smart brain from his pocket. Since you're being unfair, don't blame me for being ruthless. "Look up dirt on Wang Chunxiang, the landlord of the apartment I'm currently renting."

[Command received. Accessing all accounts and property information under Wang Chunxiang's name... Searching for evidence of violations...]

In less than a second, all of Wang Chunxiang's information appeared on the virtual light screen: she owned three properties, none of which had proper rental procedures. She had been evading taxes for years and had even partitioned a balcony into a room for rent, posing a serious safety hazard. Additionally, there were several records of her illegally withholding tenant deposits and repeatedly falsifying utility bills.

Seeing this information and evidence, Chen Fan gave a cold smile, already having a plan in mind. Today, he would avenge all the grievances he had endured over the years!
