 * 20% chance to start a Hacking attempt
 * 30% for the Network PC to be destroyed
 * 10% to be killed by Mr. Meiji

After successfully Hacking, all Restricted Areas are unlocked for 2 rounds, including the Research Center.

System Shutdown
Owning a Network PC and the System Shutdown Code allows access to the Main Computer. The Main Computer can be found with a 1% chance while searching in the Research Center.
