Ten Million for My Silence—So My Negotiator Raised the Price

News of the thirty-seven rescued subjects never reached the public. Cloud Harbor caught fire from an alleged electrical fault after the ambulances left. Police records did not mention Skyvault, and the victims had gaps in their memories. Su Ze repeated only one sentence: “Don't let the man in white gloves touch the mirror.” Before Lu Chen could question him, Skyvault sued Lu Chen for thirty million yuan over the data-center breach. Then a stranger sent a commission. “At eight tonight, negotiate public compensation for the Cloud Harbor victims. Succeed and I pay ten million. Fail and all of you are arrested as hackers.” It was signed Han Ce. “A trap,” Su Wanqing said.
