Chapter 1195: Getting Some Shit Done - No System Is Safe
In doing so, Royo and Chris Kenneth would definitely fly with them though they\'d reach my place sooner, but I already asked the people I left there to take care of it because we were known for our hospitality and if they\'d need anything more, I was just one call away.
But yeah, hours easily passed and funnily enough, the three\'s words rang true when Kaley, Ella, and June almost gave me a shock when they popped out of nowhere like Jude—bringing us some dinner—because it was already 8:00 PM, and we were that absorbed in our work.
I didn\'t think I even went into my automated state—since I was making sure everything was typed in correctly—but we really do have to take a short rest.
Ella exclaimed as she pointed at me, "You\'ve been here all along?!"
"What? No one told you?"
"I didn\'t ask but— I\'m hungry!"
Captain Davis chuckled, "Then I\'ll leave you guys here to eat. I\'d love to join you but my wife\'s probably looking for me as well."
Kaley interjected, "They can eat with us here too, right?"
"No, no, they could but I did promise to eat with just us. They\'re probably waiting at the villa…"
"I-I see, take care then!"
"I will, I will…" Captain Davis trailed off as he walked out the door.
At that point, since we discovered that Kaley and the rest also hadn\'t eaten yet, we cleared the biggest table and had dinner right then and there. Some of our crew also discovered our location and decided to eat with us, though it definitely got rowdy when Oscar, Jennifer, Quinn, and Bartow joined in.
They were the loudest of the bunch and I wish we could\'ve eaten quietly, but it is what it is.
Though Ella soon learned of her trip tomorrow via a Chinook:
"W-What?! I don\'t even get to drive with you?!"
"The Raptor\'s already at capacity and you\'d be there in less than an hour, what else do you want?"
"I-I want to drive with you! See the road and everything!"
"Trust me, the road\'s not nice and you probably think every place here looks like the Subic Bay, unfortunately, it\'s not."
"B-But—"
"No buts, it\'s also safer for you and it\'d give me peace of mind—" then I turned to everyone, "Also, anyone aside from my main group is also welcome to join them and we\'ll see if we could fit in one of our vehicles in there."
Oscar nodded, "If anyone wouldn\'t board the Chinook, I\'ll put my H1 there and enjoy the flight. I can\'t waste time driving all the way back—" then he turned to Jennifer, "How about you? Your girl\'s driving the Chinook, right?"
Jennifer answered, "I\'ll come with, I suppose," then she turned to me after, "Is that okay?"
I shrugged my shoulders, "Sure."
At that point, Jeremy and Cindy also decided to board the Chinook while June and Eden decided that they wanted to drive with us. A few more people wanted to experience flying from the CH-47, and since we had enough people to drive our vehicles without diminishing our fighting power that much, I allowed everyone who could fit inside that helicopter.
But yeah, as soon as we finished eating, I went back to finishing up this place\'s records with Janice and Maine—wherein Captain Davis also returned shortly—but this time, we received help from Alexa and June, who were more attuned to this type of stuff compared to my usual fighting crew.
At the rate we were going, we\'d actually finish the whole she-bang if we stayed up till midnight, and we did just that despite the almost telepathic messages I was feeling every time one of the women in our circle dropped in to check in on us or make us some coffee.
If only they knew we could\'ve gotten on it faster if they all chipped in but nevertheless, this type of work needed someone proficient in computers or slightly adept in some form of organizing shit, and the people that joined us fit the bill.
Because aside from June who could type like a motherfucker, Alexa made subtle changes to the files already done by color-coding certain entries to make them easier to identify by a glance, because most people do see colors first than text.
June cut in, "Do we have a centralized server yet? I can make one if you\'d let me?"
I turned to Captain Davis, "We could make use of the relays we installed all around—"
Captain Davis shook his head, "How about security?"
Maine added, "Like the food inventory and the thingamajig for our building materials, we can only have those in there and have only physical copies for the important bits."
June nodded, "It\'d be up to you to keep it safe because no system is safe, everything\'s hackable if the person doing it knows their thing."
Maine glanced at June, "You a blackhat or something? You know your shit."
June snorted convincingly, "For someone to know their shit, it\'s pretty basic shit, no? There\'s a lot of shit to learn online, if you\'re into that shit—"
Janice had to cut in, "Can\'t we use other words other than that?!"
