Chapter 171
Apart from Kieran and Nicholas, the office was bustling with people.
At this moment, Nicholas raised his head and looked at Timothy. “Come over here and take a look for yourself.”
After giving a slight nod of his head, Timothy walked over to the computer.
Next to him was a technician clicking on the screen. “There’s a problem here-it looks like something invisible is blocking the video. I’ve tried several methods, but haven’t been able to bypass it no matter how I try to start the program. Is there a bug?”
“Let me see.” With that, Timothy’s fingers began to fly so rapidly across the keyboard that the only evidence of what he was doing was the sound of the keyboard clacking.
Not long later, he pressed the Enter key and stopped moving.
The light that indicated the software was working lit up and the originally frozen video began to play as well. Following that, ethereal music began to play in the background.

“Is it working now?” the technician asked with some surprise.
It was after Timothy inclined his head once more that he explained, “It’s not a bug. It’s a hidden protection software that I previously installed. As I was afraid that our information would be stolen, installed the software and was prepared to unveil it on the eve of the listing, but kept forgetting to inform you guys about it. I apologize for the trouble.”
Hearing that, Nicholas lifted his head and deeply looked at Timothy.
On the other hand, Kieran threw his arm around Timothy’s neck with a smile. “Who knew that you had such hidden depths, you little scoundrel? You’re more capable than I thought.”
In response, Timothy offered a somewhat embarrassed smile.
The only reason why he had installed this software was precisely because of the incident where his computer had been snatched by Silas and Lauren. He was afraid of such a situation happening again.
The technician was so astonished that he commented, “How could we not have discovered it before?”
“I set it in such a way that it wouldn’t lock unless the program was shut down,” Timothy explained. “Since you had kept the program running before, you wouldn’t have been locked out. Today must have been the first time you exited the program. I’ll teach you how to unlock it now.”
Since all the employees present were elites of the IT industry, the only reason why they had been bamboozled was because they hadn’t known of the hidden protection software. Now that they were aware of it, they were quick to learn the method to unlock it.
They understood the basics in a short while.
Then, another technician asked, “Are there other programs apart from this which are locked in a similar way?”
“Yes, I installed them on five programs in total. Each one has a different method of unlocking, which are these…” Timothy moved the mouse once again to point out the remaining four areas.
Then, the technicians quickly memorized the methods to unlock the respective softwares. “Not bad; you’re very capable. We weren’t able to discover this software even after working on it for ages.”
An apologetic Timothy smile. “It’s my fault for not mentioning it earlier, though. Once again, I’m sorry.”
