Act 1: A, C, E
Scene: Cybersecurity company office

The office erupts in cheers.
C says to A: (happily) Looks like our efforts weren't in vain — we finally have results.
A: (sighs) Yeah, finally some free time. The boss should give us some bonus, right?
C: Definitely, such an important achievement.
Act 2: A, D
Scene: Home
A: Mom, the project is over. I can spend more time with you now, and your medical expenses are taken care of.
D: Wonderful, my son is so capable. I'm so proud of you...
Suddenly, a text message arrives. Content: 10,000 yuan bonus deposited to bank account.
A: (in disbelief, exclaims) What? How can it be so little?
D: What happened?
A: Oh, nothing, just your test results came in. They say your condition is improving, heh.
D: That's truly a double celebration then, hahaha.
Act 3: A, B
Scene: Coffee shop
B: Hey? A, how do you have time for coffee today?
A: The project is over, lots of free time now. Thanks for looking after my mother all this time.
B: It's no big deal. You helped me a lot before, I was just visiting the elderly on the way. Speaking of which, you mentioned the project is over — is that the "Firewall X" your company has been researching?
A: How do you know what our team was working on?
B: Oh, I'm in cybersecurity too. Of course I've heard about such an important achievement of yours.
A: (sighs deeply) Unfortunately, the project bonus isn't nearly enough to cover my mother's medical expenses.
B: (pretends to think, then suddenly remembers) Oh right, I know a boss who has been wanting an advanced firewall system but couldn't find a satisfactory one. How about I connect you?
A: (waves hand) This is a national-level project result with important security implications. How could I use it privately? Let me ask about the bonus first, maybe there was some mistake.
B: Alright then, let me know if you need anything.
Act 4: A, E
Scene: Phone call
A: Director E, I saw the bonus was distributed. Is the amount wrong?
E: Sorry, A, that's all the funding from above. I know about your difficulties — this was already special consideration for you.
The phone call ends. The camera shows A, silent, glancing at the phone, then dialing B's number.
A: Hey, B? Does that boss you mentioned still need a firewall system?
B: (overjoyed but stays calm) Don't worry, let me check for you.
B waits a few minutes, then calls A back.
B: He says as long as the system is excellent, there's no problem.
A: (delighted) Absolutely no problem — it's the most advanced system available.
B: Then you'll need to provide the system's source code and configuration methods. Don't worry, that boss is a close friend of mine. He promises to only use it in his own company — no one else will find out.
A: (grits teeth, makes up his mind) Okay, deal!
Act 5: A
Scene: Company office
A, wearing gloves, sneaks into the dark office to steal the materials, and quietly returns the documents the next morning.
Act 6
Scene: Phone call
B: The boss says he's very satisfied with the system you provided. He's already transferred 1 million yuan to you, and will give you more later. Please confirm.
A: (shows delight upon receiving the bank notification) Already received. Thank you.
B: No problem, we're friends. I just made the connection.
Act 7: A, D, F
Scene: Home
A is about to enter his mother's room when F suddenly appears and handcuffs A from behind.
A: (angrily) What are you doing!
F: You know best what you've done. The system you stole has been leaked abroad. They've cracked our firewall.
A: (shocked internally but maintains composure) What stolen system? What evidence do you have?
F: Hmph, if we couldn't catch an amateur thief like you, then the big criminals we've caught before would be too unprofessional. It's not just you — someone called B has also been caught. He's a hacker who was lurking in our country.
A: What are you saying!? You're saying I helped a hacker?
F: Exactly! Your actions have seriously compromised our nation's cybersecurity!
A: (long silence, crying) I had my reasons. It was all because that director embezzled the bonus, making it impossible for me to pay for my mother's medical expenses. That's why I...
F: Everyone has reasons for doing bad things, but that doesn't make them acceptable. I'm sorry to tell you, but your director didn't embezzle the bonus. It was a corrupt official above him. We've already reported him and his associates — they will face legal judgment. The bonus you deserved has been used to pay off your mother's medical expenses, with the remainder deposited in her bank account.
A: (silent again, then speaks) Can you give me some time? I want to talk to my mother.
F: Of course.
Scene: Mother's room
A: Mom, I...
D: I heard everything, child. Sigh (looks out the window), as a mother, I feel happy and proud of your care and filial piety toward me, but as a Chinese citizen, I feel anger and shame at your actions.
A: I... (suddenly kneels down).
The camera moves toward the window. Police sirens are heard.
