Chapter 511: Chapter 317: The Mysterious Person
“Team Leader, should we call this popping champagne at halftime?”
Qin Yun lightened the mood.
Lin Chuan touched his nose and chuckled, “It could also be called planning ahead, I guess.”
Several people exchanged smiles.
In the small office, there was an air of relaxation.
Elsewhere, with Lin Chuan’s guidance and specific steps, it was a breeze for Squirrel to filch some data from AW’s server.
For Squirrel and Lin Chuan, it was a piece of cake.
But in the hacker community, it stirred up quite a wave.
Among them, Lin Chuan intentionally added fuel to the fire.
It wasn’t long before.
News of Squirrel taking a bite from the God of Hackers began to spread throughout the hacker community.
[Watt, what’s going on?]
[A second God of Hackers?]
[My God, what have I seen, is this for real?]
[He’s so bold, actually daring to snatch food from the God of Hackers!]
[Isn’t he afraid that the God of Hackers will track him down through the internet to retaliate?]
[If you’re talking about anyone else tracking through the internet, I definitely wouldn’t believe it, but the God of Hackers, he really can do it!]
[Personal analysis, this kid has some skills, getting a bit of an upper hand over the God of Hackers. I bet the major powers will soon be fighting over him!]
[That’s definitely right, he has potential!]
[The next God of Hackers?]
[…]
In the hacker circles, on the Dark Live streaming platform, many live rooms were discussing the sudden appearance of this person.
At present, no one knew he was Squirrel.
The hackers’ speculations weren’t far off from the truth.
Even North Bear’s HK wanted to find this mysterious person.
Hackers in North America even issued statements wanting to recruit this mysterious person to form another AW, becoming the next dominant hacker organization following AW.
Inside Morgan Group, it was the same.
As the day drew to a close, but before night fell.
The glow of the setting sun lay on the golden-orange sea, the tropical sky a gradation of golden and purple hues intertwined, a gentle breeze blowing, carrying the salty scent of the ocean and the fresh aroma of coconut palms, skimming over the skin with a hint of coolness.
Lucas had already moved out of his original office space.
— Yu Qin had been arrested; it would be foolish to stay in the same place.
Now, he stood in front of the window, the salty sea breeze caressing him, his past vigor significantly diminished, now appearing somewhat desolate.
Yes, his tenure as head of Morgan Group’s Asia-Pacific Division was nearly at an end.
Morgan Headquarters had given him his final, grim order.
— At any cost, take out Lin Chuan.
This was his only opportunity.
Therefore, he had no choice but to collaborate with Baisheng Group.
How could he and his good-for-nothing subordinates possibly accomplish the task on their own?
Even the astute Yu sisters had failed.
Sigh—
Lucas swirled the red wine in his hand, took a light sip.
The wine hadn’t been given enough time to breathe, so it tasted slightly astringent, just like his current situation.
Knock, knock, knock!
A knocking sounded at the door.
Lucas glanced back, “Come in.”
He recognized the rhythm of the knock; it was his secretary’s.
Sure enough.
The woman who had always been at Lucas’s side—his secretary—in a snug suit, long legs sheathed in black stockings, walked in with a graceful figure, a professional smile on her face.
“General Manager, please give your orders.”
Lucas lifted his hand.
The secretary understood and stepped forward two paces, taking the wine glass from his hand.
At that moment.
Lucas spoke, “Moli, you inspired me at noon today, lots of our data is in AW’s hands, so let’s get the hackers in motion. Have there been any developments so far?”
Moli, which was the secretary’s name, hesitated, “This… There hasn’t been any feedback from the people below at the moment.”
Ah, Lucas sighed inwardly once more.
He also saw this operation as a shot in the dark and had not really pinned his hopes there.
After all, who among his subordinates could snatch food from the jaws of Lin Chuan?
Not being badly beaten was already a cause for thanksgiving.
Lucas pondered for a moment and said in a grave tone, “Moli, now instruct HR to utilize our connections and try to get in touch with someone.”
“Who?” Moli lifted her eyes and asked with clear curiosity.
“Just a while ago, I saw news in the hacker community; someone really did snatch a piece of cake from Lin Chuan’s hands, so I want to find that mysterious hacker.”
Lucas ordered.
“I’ll notify HR right away,” Moli, the efficient secretary that she was, took action on Lucas’s command.
After speaking, she immediately turned and left the office.
“Wait a moment!”
Lucas called out to Moli.
Moli stopped and turned, “General Manager, do you have any further instructions?”
Lucas contemplated briefly and then said, “Have the cyber security department also try to make contact with that mysterious person.”
“Alright!” Moli nodded earnestly.
Moli exited the office.
Lucas sat down at the desk, poured a small portion of red wine for himself, sipping alone.
Right now, he was very eager to find the person who had managed to snatch a small piece of cake from Lin Chuan’s hands!
It didn’t matter whether that person could hold their own against Lin Chuan or not.
Just resisting for a short while, causing confusion for a moment, would provide him with a great deal of advantage.
He was in dire need of such talent!
Knock, knock, knock!
The same rhythmic knocking soon reached his ears again.
Moli had returned.
“Have you run into any obstacles?”
Lucas lifted his gaze to Moli, his first thought being whether HR and the cyber security department were giving her a hard time.
If that was the case, then some discipline was in order.
In these times of consecutive failures, the atmosphere within the group had turned depressing, and many people were starting to slack off at work.
It was time to set an example!
Moli quickly shook her head, “General Manager, no, I have news!”
