Miss Cherry put on a great smile upon meeting with Madam Chen, Yuan Lan Ying and her sister at the hospital, proudly affirming, "I have managed to convince those intimidating board of directors throughout the meeting a whole long hour ago!" Turning to Madam Chen, she elaborated, "There will be no problem if you should want to continue working at Sheng Ying and your compensation before and after actual retirement might increase following my presentation of a pending proposal..."
Everyone was utterly grateful that Miss Cherry felt really extremely accomplished. After expressing heartfelt appreciation and thanks, Yuan Lan Ying turned somewhat thoughtful and placed a hand on Miss Cherry's, showing concern, "How's Lu Ke Ying these days?"
"Lu Ke Ying?" Teacher Cherry was taken aback.
Yuan Lan Ying only nodded, "I knew him when he was still working on the games used to challenge Pi Li MIT..."
Teacher Cherry quickly sat closer and yearned to know more. Yuan Lan Ying continued, "Since I have completed my part, I think I can disclose now...We first met each other at Mastermind computer centre - Lu Ke Ying has to design his plans outside of Sheng Ying so he chose that location..."
Teacher Cherry now realised, "You knew these, but how was the beginning like?"
Yuan Lan Ying recalled, "On the day of our mother's birthday, we received a surprise cake and gift. The gift was a card reminding mother of her fast due resignation. At the back of it was printed "Mastermind Computer Centre" and its address. I went to find out and saw Lu Ke Ying in an agonised state. It's hard for me to have a clear talk with him, and only managed to figure out the only one of our common source of problem is Principal Tao. He said that he doesn't know for how long he can persist to put up with the challenge and so persuaded me to get my own solution by agreeing to follow up with Game 2. He helped me alot and saved a bunch of stuff and whatever program onto the CDs provided in the shop."
"So this is the story," Teacher Cherry learned much this moment.
Yuan Lan Ying advised further, "I'm glad someone like you, Teacher Cherry from Sheng Ying did not look down on us. To extend a little aid, I can only say that all the shop names supplied to your computer were tricked by the CD you all found - they are all fakes. Mastermind computer centre is only one store. So far, you can see that the people targetted are part of or related to Sheng Ying - Lu Ke Ying, me - on behalf of my mum. There is a thorough research going on behind this. It's either Sheng Ying against Sheng Ying or Sheng Ying for Sheng Ying..."
After getting to know whatever was revealed, Teacher Cherry quickly went over with Madam Chen to their home. Their computer has been left in a sleep mode ever since Yuan Lan Ying and her sister were admitted to hospital. Unfortunately, it crashed right after they got Yuan Lan Ying's own copy of her programmed CD out of the computer.
On her way back home, Teacher Cherry tried to roughly guess the location of Mastermind computer centre. Based on details the other MIT gang has furnished every once in a while, she courageously entered a store.
Inside, she was not astounded in any way and hurriedly approached the only person she could spot.
"Excuse me, I just want to know if you provide any computer service in here?" she asked well-manneredly.
The middle-aged man looked up, "Huh?"
"Oh, I'm not making myself clear enough? Actually, this Mastermind Computer Centre..." she tried to explain.
He soon stopped her and pointed out, "Miss, can't you see what I have?"
Teacher Cherry only looked around and about.
"This store is called 'Hotty Snacks Centre'...whatever other centre you've mentioned, is out of sense," he reprimanded and kept away some lists he was working on.
Teacher Cherry was outrightly embarrassed after being treated so poorly by such an unheeding shop attendant.
