When they got to his room, Woosung turned on his laptop and started the Visual Studio. Woosung pointed at the code.
“You need to work with this part that says TODO.”
Amelia nodded.
/TODO./
Beside it was an explanation of what the function needed to do.
-Check QoS to guarantee the subscription to the Topic.
“What do you think? Can you do it?” Woosung asked as he turned to Amelia.
Go Sangjun glanced at the code as well. “Hmm. Let me see.” Amelia hummed and answered.
Amelia studied everything carefully. After 10 minutes, she closed her eyes. Woosung opened his mouth to try to help.
“Let me give you a few hints. This function needs to…” Before Woosung could finish his sentence, Amelia opened her eyes and placed her hands on the keyboard. Woosung asked uncertainly. “Ms. Amelia?”
Type.
Type.
Amelia started to hum again with an excited grin.
“Haha! I think I got it. Quality of service. If you increase the quality, the speed goes down, and if you increase the speed, the performance goes down.” Amelia explained as she continued to type. “The transmission to MQTT Broker seems inadequate.”
In MQTT, the server was basically the Broker. Just from looking at the codes on the client’s side and the To-do list, Amelia understood the task easily.
“If I can do this, you really promise to show me the codes on the server side too?”
“If you can sign the non-disclosure agreement and the future employee contract, then yes.”
Amelia felt sheer excitement run through her veins. “I can’t wait to see it! Let’s hurry up!”
She acted like an eager schoolgirl, but the quality and speed of her work were out of this world. She was better and faster than Woosung, who came from the future.
She was a genius. Coding seemed to come naturally to her. She typed without hesitation.
“The protocol itself is simple. I want to look into the IMB research you mentioned earlier at the seminar.” Even when she was talking, she didn’t stop typing. “Wow, I really like this.”
She chatted happily while Woosung and Go Sangjun stared in awe.
The to-do list was filled faster than any of them have expected. Amelia was beyond Woosung’s wildest dream.
“For the rest, I need to know how the Broker works. I finished what I could with knowing the client codes. Shall we test it?”
It took less than 2 hours.
‘It would’ve taken me at least two to three days.’
Go Sangjun was still staring at Amelia, who smiled and urged Woosung.
“Test! Do the test!”
“A…alright.”
Genius.
She was a coding genius.
The test was a success. Woosung wrote out a quick agreement.
After she signed it, Woosung showed her the codes. As she studied them, she exclaimed. She also made some helpful suggestions.
By the time they were done, it was two in the morning.
It was dark outside. “It’s too late for you to get back home. I will get a room for you for tonight.” Woosung offered Amelia.
“Actually, I won’t get any sleep tonight anyway, so could I work on this code? You guys can go to bed. I’ll just keep this lamp on.”
Woosung thought he heard her wrong. “W…what?”
“I…if you are uncomfortable with a stranger working on your codes, then I understand.”
“No, that’s not what I meant. Are you saying you want to work on the codes all night?”
Amelia nodded eagerly. “You have to work tomorrow, so wouldn’t this affect your performance tomorrow?”
“Haha, that’s not a problem. My supervisor said I can do whatever I want to.”
“Oh…”
Woosung could understand why. He would’ve said the same thing. A genius like her didn’t need a supervisor to hover over her.
Woosung felt a huge respect for her.
“I…I guess it’s not possible?” She frowned.
Woosung replied quickly. “Nope. You are welcome to improve them as you see fit. Just remember the non-disclosure agreement.”
Amelia smiled brightly. “Ok! Then I can get to work?”
“Yup.”
She quickly quieted down and focused on the screen. Woosung turned the light off and went to sleep.
The next day.
Woosung woke up in the middle of the day. Amelia was already gone. A note was left on top of the laptop.
-I changed a little bit of the structure and left an explanation.
-The core protocol and format pub/sub remain unchanged of course.
-You did an amazing job!
-I can’t wait to work for you.
-I will call you when my internship ends.
Woosung has never met someone like her before.
Coding nerd.
Woosung was in desperate need of someone like her.
“I better make sure she keeps her promise.”
Go Sangjun was already on his way back to Korea. Jonathan Logan hasn’t called him yet. There was no reason for Woosung to stay here any longer.
His next stop was New York.
The first place Woosung visited in New York was the Charging Bull.
“I better find a good lawyer first.”
If he asked Jang Gwangchul, he would have recommended a good lawyer, but Woosung wanted to keep this a secret.
The prospect of having the future changed if more people knew about it worried Woosung so.
“The next four months will be very important.”

Many people already felt the upcoming danger. The news in both US and Korea hinted the inevitable financial crisis.
No one could tell exactly what, when, and how it will happen. Except for Woosung.
A few months later.
-This is breaking news on CNN. Lehman Brothers filed for the bankruptcy. The stock market has halted. The financial world is in a huge turmoil.
