$750 trillion

[Transfer successful]

[Your account has been credited with 750,000,000,000,000]

Edward's eyes widened in shock after reading the message. Rubbing his eyes to confirm if he wasn't imagining things.

'750 Trillion dollars?' Edward pondered his expression mixed with surprise and joy at the same time. Edward quickly rushed up from his bed and hurried to his computer that he left on while going to work.

'It worked?' Edward thought with his eyes wide opened. Leaving the computer turned on,the extraction process was completed then the transfer began for another set of hours.

'I can't believe it. I finally succeeded.' Edward pondered,typing away in his computer to make sure they don't reverse the funds he had just received from an unknown source.

Edward had no clue who's bank account he has been trying to hack for months now,all he did was try by passing the rich men's account around Brickwoods.

'Maybe i'm just getting too excited. I don't know if it's even real.' Edward said,glancing at his phone screen once more to read the message again.

Edward quickly opened his closet and took out a black hoodie,putting it on and heading out of the house with his Atm card.

It was already dark and late,not safe for anyone to walk around this late in Brickwoods. Dangerous gangs and thugs usually operate when the sun is down,and it wasn't advisable for town folks to walk about freely.

Most gangs are sponsored by the rich men in Brickwoods,paying the gang to rob from houses and companies and also carrying out some dirty missions for them.

Most young boys around Brickwoods chose to join some certain gang because of the high pay they get. Edward once thought about joining one,but after thinking about all he had gone through in life,he couldn't. Joining a gang would only ruin his life and future.

Walking through the silent empty streets of Brickwoods with his hoodie covering his jet black hair,Edward kept his guard on incase he spots any gang around,he would b able to flee.

After walking for few minutes,Edward arived infront of an Atm machine stationed beside a night club. The sound of loud music and noises coming from inside the club,made Edward realise that lots of gang members are in there and he had to be quick with what he wanted to do.

Edward inserted his credit card inside the machine and placed his finger on the button, 'Uh..let's try,1$ dollar'

Edward pressed the button after concluding.

[Transaction approved]

The notification appeared in the atm machine,and a dollar note slid outside with his card.

Edward picked up the money in surprise and joy. Staring at the dollar note like a slave who finally got paid after 50 years of hard labour.

Ding*

[Debit alert: 1$]

[Balance: 74,999,999,999,999]

Edward glanced at the message and saw his available balance. The whole theory now cleared Edward's doubts. He finally believed that his hack worked,and he truly is rich now.

'Who ever owned this money was a bad person,i'm sure of it. So i shouldn't be feeling any remorse,but instead,i should live like a rich man now.' Edward thought,sliding the dollar note into his pants pocket and was about to leave.

"Why would boss call us so urgently?" A deep male's voice spoke from behind. Edward quickly turned around and saw six rugged looking guys,dressed in red singlet and red bandana around their neck with tattoo all over,they all walked out of the club.

Edward quickly hid himself behind a car that was packed outside the club

"I don't know,but he sounded pretty urgent on the phone." The other replied,blowing out smoke from his mouth.

"Maybe he needs us to whack someone."

Edward hid behind the car trying his best not to breath loudly to avoid getting caught by the thugs. Edward felt like the footsteps were getting louder and closer to where he was,taking a peek,Edward saw the gang entering the same car he was hiding behind.

"Hey,who are you?!" One of the gang member spotted Edward,Edward quickly turned around and dashed away from their location.

"Get him!" They started the car and began to chase Edward closely behind.

'God,am i going to die without enjoying the money i suffered so much to get?!' Edward thought while running as fast as his legs could carry him. Taking different turns to lose them,but it didn't work.

Bang* Bang*

The sound of gunshots reverberated throughout the silent street,making Edward's heart beat faster and felt like it was going to jump out from his mouth.

The bullets missed him and hits metal,causing a loud clanging sound.

"Where did he go?" One of the gang member asked in surprise as he got off the car and glanced around the area.

"We lost him. Let's just go,boss is waiting." They got back in the car and drove off.

Out of a small metal round container, Edward crawled out after noticing they were gone.

'That was close.' Edward thought with his hand on his chest and panting heavily out of tiredness. He quickly head back to his house through some shortcuts to avoid running into his 'Friends.'
