Chapter 3: What Could Possibily Go Wrong?
Chapter 3: What Could Possibily Go Wrong?
At first, I thought it would be a simple job of closing the prompt boxes, but it's been an hour now, and I still haven't managed to close any of them. For some reason, the ads on this computer were resilient to the extreme and wouldn't go away no matter what I did.
I would say that I was extremely efficient with computers and could even break into the servers of an asset management computer if I had enough time and resources on my side, which is also one of the reasons why everyone wanted me in the past after seeing what I could potentially do.
But for some reason, the vintage ads on this library computer were like gum on a shoe and wouldn't budge no matter what I did, which honestly fascinated me, as it was the first time in a long time that a certain task had stumped me.
It made me wonder what sort of madman made such ads that were worse than any computer malware to ever exist.
And of all the ads he could make, he had to make porn ads that advertised milfs. But at the same time, it also seemed like something a computer prodigy would do to troll others. If he sold the security grid on his ads that was breach-proof and even looked like it didn't exist on the drive, I'm pretty sure that even the military would be interested because of how perfect it was.
I would normally laugh at this troll since he created and used technology beyond our time to make porn ads, but unfortunately they were playing on a computer at a children's library I worked at. And unless I wanted to give the children that visited tomorrow a talk on the birds and the bees, I needed to stop these ads.
But since I currently don't have the equipment or time to do so, I decided to simply pull the plug on the computer and fix it at a later date.
I bent down, went underneath the desktop, and pulled the plug from the computer. I then scooted back and patted the dust off my hands.
But just as I was getting up after tying the cord so that no one plugged it back in, I saw that the computer screen was on.
Hmm? That's strange. Did I pull the plug on the wrong computer?
I thought for sure that I pulled the right plug, but it didn't seem so since the computer screen was still on and playing those annoying ads that filled the screen.
I bent down again and saw that I did pull the right plug. But since it didn't stop the computers for some reason, I pulled all the plugs in the socket and stood up, thinking that I'd fixed the problem now.
But to my surprise, the screen was still playing those ads.
What's going on? I pulled out all the plugs that went through this single socket port, and there aren't any other power sources here, but this screen is still running. Is there any power supply that I don't know off?
I didn't know what to make of the situation, so I did the next best thing and pulled out the wire of the monitor.
But to my shock, the monitor was still playing the ads even though there was nothing connected to it.
I thought it was a wireless monitor at first, but I knew that it couldn't be true since it was a very old monitor that's been in use for years. I then thought that there could be an internal battery in the model, but then again, it was an old setup, so there was no way that could be true.
Seeing the monitor power itself on its own honestly gave me a creepy feeling since it was a very abnormal occurrence.
Especially with how it was getting dark out, and the monitor being the only bright object in this dimly lit room. It felt like the light from the screen was dragging me closer to it and was trying to trap me inside, which sent an eerie chill down my spine.
Even the dead body next to me, whose eyes were bulging out from the pain he felt during his death, didn't scare me as much as this single third-rate monitor that was bought on a budget.
I've watched enough horror movies and knew the best plan of action was to run away from these types of situations, without interacting with them any further. But for some reason, I felt that something would change if I actually clicked on one of those links.
I didn't understand the feeling, and it wasn't something out of instinct, but for some reason all I could think of was what would happen if I actually clicked on those links that I hadn't touched this whole time.
My brain shouted that I shouldn't since it seemed very shady, but my heart was telling me the exact opposite, so I went over to the computer screen that was shining on my face and used the mouse to hover over the multiple links on the screen.
I didn't know which one to pick and simply hovered over all of them, while checking out each one carefully.
But while I was reading each ad one by one, my hand that was controlling the mouse suddenly stopped. I didn't know why it suddenly stopped like that, but I didn't bother to think about that since I was focused on the prompt box the pointer of the mouse landed on.
[The Gods Invite You To The World Of Milfs. Click If You Choose To Accept, Chosen One]
There was no colorful graphic, pictures, or video in this ad. It only had some golden text in the box.
But I don't know why, but out of all the ads on the screen, this one in particular stood out for me. My hand on the mouse was also twitching, as if it were begging me to click it.
I knew I shouldn't click it, but I simply couldn't resist the temptation of finding out what would happen if I did. I understood the outcome could potentially turn out horribly, but it was still an outcome I wanted to see.
And I felt that even if I left now, this issue would somehow come back and haunt me in the future, no matter what I did, so it was better to finish it off now, even though I was kind of scared.
I turned back and looked at the body that was watching me do all this on his chair. I chuckled while I stared into his lifeless eyes and said
"I kind of wish I hadn't killed you right now...At least I would have someone by my side to keep me company."
I then looked back at the computer screen with the same smile on my face and said
"It's just a porn ad, isn't it? What can it actually do to me?"
And after steeling my veins and gritting my teeth, I clicked the link, not knowing what was to come.
Click~
I braced myself for whatever the outcome was and looked around vigilantly, but no changes occurred other than the monitor screen turning off.
After seeing that nothing really happened like I was expecting, I turned around, looked at the corpse, and said while laughing
"Haha! I can't believe I was scared of that. What Gods? What Milfs? And calling me the chosen one like I was on a mission. What a joke. In the end, it was nothing after al-"
