Chapter 528: Chapter 328: Kill Two Birds with One Stone!

Virtue may be above us, but the devil is always one step ahead.

Big Tiger reported to Chairman Zhao that he had engaged a top hacker to help Heart Language Company evade Lin Chuan’s investigation.

Unbeknownst to them, that very night, Lin Chuan received a tip-off–

Squirrel: “Falcon, I’ve been assigned a task by Chairman Zhao to camouflage an IP address, and I need your help. Also, you can investigate this IP address,”

At that time, the night was still young.

Lin Chuan sat in front of the computer, with a cup of Maojian tea, freshly brewed by the Little Landlady, ready to seek an opportunity to delve into the investigation of Heart Language Company.

He then saw the message from Squirrel.

Though Squirrel was not a top hacker, his technical skills were decent after being mentored by Lin Chuan, and their communication was always encrypted, leaving no worries about being discovered.

Lin Chuan’s brows furrowed slightly as his gaze landed on this IP address, pondered for a moment, and then replied, “Are we starting the camouflage now?”

“Yes!”

Squirrel was succinct.

Lin Chuan’s fingers moved: “OK, I’ll send you the operation procedure shortly. Follow it to camouflage this IP address. Unless I personally strive to crack it, no one can break it.”

Lin Chuan was very confident about this.

As a legendary hacker who had brought down the entire AW, he had such prowess.

Seeing the message, Squirrel thought for a moment: “Falcon, recently I heard that Chairman Zhao wants to deal with a hacker named Lin Chuan, known as the God of Hackers. I suspect that this IP address camouflage is also a ploy to deceive Lin Chuan. Can your operation procedure really hold up against him?”

Lin Chuan flashed a grin: “Of course, piece of cake.”

Me guard against myself?

Obviously, there’s no problem with that. There are a hundred ways to secure it!

At the same time, there are ten thousand ways to make you think you’ve secured it, when in fact you haven’t.

The two ended their communications.

Lin Chuan quickly sent Squirrel the relevant tutorials and programs, assisting him like a game substitute to consolidate his position within Baisheng Group and even advance further!

Baisheng Group.

In the vast computer room, several super high-configured computers were set up, with azure light strips encircling the walls, giving it a sci-fi atmosphere.

Squirrel was seated at a computer in the corner, hands on the keyboard, eyes burning as he watched the screen where lines of code surfaced, forming programs that began to run.

Next to him stood Chairman Zhao.

Chairman Zhao, in his suit, had a protruding belly, and his forehead was particularly shiny under the glow of the light strips, the epitome of a greasy middle-aged uncle.

He watched Squirrel’s operations.

He didn’t quite understand but found them impressive nonetheless.

“How is it going now?” Chairman Zhao asked in a deep voice.

Squirrel’s hands didn’t stop typing as he multitasked a reply: “Give me five more minutes, and the IP address camouflage will be completed.”

Chairman Zhao’s mouth curled into a smile, “Very good.”

Five minutes later.

Click!

Squirrel’s middle finger pressed the enter key neatly, turned back, and with a smile, said, “Chairman Zhao, the camouflage is complete.”

Chairman Zhao bent down to look at the screen: “What level of hacker can this camouflage defend against?”

Squirrel smiled confidently: “Everyone!”

Chairman Zhao narrowed his eyes, looking at Squirrel: “Everyone? Even the God of Hackers?”

Squirrel, having undergone professional training, didn’t crack under the pressure.

He said lightly with a chuckle, “The God of Hackers is indeed legendary, but everyone has their specialty. Top hackers know that his forte is offense.”

“Offense?” Chairman Zhao wasn’t quite clear.

Squirrel continued, “I’ve analyzed his cyber attacks and defenses numerous times, and found that whenever he’s under attack, he almost always responds offensively. It’s a risky play; if his offense doesn’t succeed quickly, his base will be breached, and disaster ensues!”

Chairman Zhao wasn’t an expert, but felt that what Squirrel said made sense.

The intelligence network he controlled also had many people saying that Lin Chuan favored attack over defense, coinciding with Squirrel’s explanation.

“What are you good at?”

Chairman Zhao looked at Squirrel, inquiring.

Squirrel pondered for a moment, “In terms of offense, I may not be on par with the God of Hackers, but in other areas, such as defense, camouflage, I believe I’m no less capable!”

Chairman Zhao was elated to see Squirrel so confident: “Excellent, that’s the spirit I want from you, lad. I see great potential in you!”

“Thank you, Chairman Zhao!” Squirrel replied with an easy smile.

Chairman Zhao gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder and with affection said, “You must have heard by now, last night, the Morgan Group’s Asia-Pacific Branch was taken down overnight, and Mr. Lucas was not spared either.”

Squirrel’s smile quickly faded: “I heard.”

“What are your plans now?” Chairman Zhao, his hand still on Squirrel’s shoulder, asked with a sly grin.

Squirrel was silent for a while: “The Morgan Group Branch is gone, Lucas has been arrested, I can’t return to Morgan Group anymore.”

Chairman Zhao was pleased with Squirrel’s response, comforting him, “Very well, from now on, stay by my side. I will build a powerful hacker team around you, and soon, you’ll become the God of Hackers!”

Squirrel was momentarily stunned.

Then, he stood up abruptly, turned to Chairman Zhao with a resolute look: “Thank you, Chairman Zhao. I will definitely not let you down!”

In that moment, Squirrel fully immersed himself in the role, his acting explosively good, as if possessed by an Oscar-winning actor.

Chairman Zhao was even more satisfied!

He laughed heartily and pointed at the computer screen: “Tonight, we’ll see if you can keep it secure!”
