She denies it, and says she's already resigned from her job. She explains to Li how she was assigned by her impatient boss (Kao Wei-chi) to trawl Bulletin Board System, the country's most popular internet forum, for news stories but was locked out when it was discovered she was a journalist and not an ordinary user (a so-called Villager).

There, he'd bumped into Four Square's systems security engineer Huang Kuan-chun (Shiou), who said they'd met previously.
