"Old Yang, keep watching. I'll go over and take a look."
After a brief pause, Xia Xu gave some instructions and stood up to leave.
He was quite interested in the fat hacker mentioned in the plot just now.
He can join the plot of Super Brain and become one of the main supporting characters, and his role is obviously to provide "hacking technology" assistance to the protagonist Griffin Jones. The talent and ability of this little fat guy must not be too bad, and no matter how bad it is, he is guaranteed to have three stars.
Although his skills are a bit lacking compared to Little White Flower's five-star programming, this little fat guy is, after all, a real talent who has discovered his talent and grown up, a hacker who can hack into the official traffic control system.
Little White Flower is just a beginner now, and her current focus is on preparing for the college entrance examination, so Xia Xu doesn't want to affect her.
Besides, the difference between programming and hacking is actually quite large. Programming is a very broad general term, which certainly includes hackers, but in a broad sense it is obviously more inclined to program writing, while hackers focus on network attack and defense and intrusion cracking.
Assuming that the fat boy's talent is 'hacking' and can reach the four-star level, the talent he displays in this aspect may not be much worse than five-star programming - at least better than four-star programming.
If you can recruit such a master hacker to work for you, collecting intelligence and monitoring other people's whereabouts will obviously be much easier, and he and Lao Yang will complement each other perfectly.
With these two people as the core, an "intelligence network" covering both online and offline can be considered as a draft team. In the future, based on these two people and recruiting some secondary personnel, an intelligence organization can be set up.
Moreover, the mechanical centipede spine obtained in the plot of "Night Owl" seems to have not yet solved the hidden dangers, and the hacker, the fat boy, is a perfect professional match.
"Boss, is there anything you need to do? How about I go?"
Yang Bowen took the initiative to ask when he saw Xia Xu starting to leave.
"No, you still need to be followed and monitored. If you can avoid showing up at Griffin Jones' place, then do it."
Xia Xu shook his head and rejected Yang Bowen's kindness.
After all, Yang Bowen will be here to keep an eye on Griffin Jones for him during this period. If there is contact or he appears multiple times, it will easily arouse vigilance.
On the contrary, he had no relationship with them in the past. He usually didn't come here, and he didn't come into contact with Griffin Jones himself. The two of them met by chance and had never met each other before, so it couldn't have any impact.
"Oh well."
Yang Bowen also thought this made sense when he heard it, so he didn't mention it any more.
Leaving Atuo with Yang Bowen temporarily and taking off his coat and changing into casual clothes, Xia Xu went straight to the house next to Griffin Jones.
At this time, Griffin Jones was still studying hard at home, and the time point of the plot that we just saw should not have arrived yet.
This also made it convenient for him to poach people in advance.
Boom boom boom!
Standing at the door, Xia Xu knocked on the door three times with a little force.
"who?"
There was a response from within the room. Although the tone didn't express anything, the short question still conveyed a sense of caution and alienation.
"Hello, this is the takeaway you ordered."
Xia Xu spoke.
According to the plot and the current evening time, the fat man is just waiting for takeout, which is a natural excuse and much more reliable than checking the water meter or something.
"Oh, okay, I'll be right over."
The sound of chair wheels sliding and slippers rubbing against the floor could be heard from the room. After a moment, the door was opened to a gap half a person's width.
“What about takeout?”
The person who opened the door was a fat guy wearing high-power myopic glasses, who looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old.
Name: Meng Bochao
Life Level: 1
Fate potential: [Supporting role: "Super Brain"]
Talent potential: Hacker (4 stars); Intelligence gathering (4 stars)
Special: None
Obsession: Get medical expenses and find the perpetrator.
Favorability: 5
The moment they met, Xia Xu opened the fat boy's attribute panel.
As expected, he has a talent for hacking, and it’s a full four stars. In addition, he even has a four-star intelligence gathering ability, which is definitely a pleasant surprise.
It seems that Meng Bochao's role in the Super Brain plot is to help Griffin Jones collect intelligence using the Internet, otherwise there would not be this kind of double four-star talent configuration.
"you… "
Meng Bochao was still somewhat alert. He quickly noticed that Xia Xu had nothing in his hands and started to close the door.
Unfortunately, before he could close it, a hand grabbed the door tightly.
"Don't panic, I just want to talk to you."
Xia Xu smiled slightly, and with an effort of his hand, he not only stopped Meng Bochao from closing the door, but also pried the door open and stepped inside.
After all, he had done physical training with Uncle Luo for a month or two. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't compare to Meng Bochao, who was obviously fat and weak.
"What do you want to do? You are trespassing! Believe it or not, I will call the police!"
The moment Xia Xu stepped into the room, Meng Bochao panicked and his tone and demeanor became timid.
"Call the police... I don't mind if that's okay with you."
Xia Xu smiled and said, "Wait a moment, I'll close the door. I believe there are some things you don't want others to hear."
Having said that, he leisurely turned around and locked the door, then looked around the room.
Xia Xu had already entered the room. Coupled with the power difference just now and Xia Xu's appearance at the moment, Meng Bochao was obviously frightened. He felt a little embarrassed and nervous, and his whole body was tense.
In contrast, it seemed as if Xia Xu was the master of this place, and Meng Bochao became the reserved guest who came to disturb the house.
"Who are you?"
Meng Bo's extremely broad body blocked Xia Xu's sight intentionally or unintentionally, but he could not hide his panic.
"Meng Bochao, right? You were the one who just hacked into the traffic management system, right?"
Xia Xu looked at him playfully, then glanced at the light source behind him.
I don’t know if it’s because he’s a night owl or something, but the curtains in the room were drawn tightly and the lights were not on. In the dark living room, only three screens of different sizes were shining with dazzling light. Fortunately, he was not afraid of damaging his eyesight.
"This... so fast?"
Meng Bochao was shocked by Xia Xu's words. After his worries were exposed, he could no longer hide his panic. He was filled with fear and shock: "I... I just hacked in. I didn't have time to do anything. Really!"
At this moment, he was extremely terrified and exclaimed in disbelief.
Is this person here because of the black traffic management system
I just hacked in, okay!
How is it possible to locate my position so quickly!
Could it be that a legendary top boss is taking action
But even if there really is such a big shot who accepts official recruitment, he wouldn't use it to catch an unknown little shrimp like me, right
And I just hacked into a traffic control system, okay!
This is more than just using a butcher knife to kill a chicken! This is like using an anti-aircraft gun to attack bacteria!
Besides, even if they really located me instantly, how could they come to check the water meter so quickly? Are the efficiency of official departments so outrageous now
"Don't be nervous, I'm not an official water meter inspector."
Seeing Meng Bochao's expression, Xia Xu realized that he must have misunderstood. He laughed dumbly and said, "I just said it. I just want to talk to you about something."
"Talk about... about what?"
Meng Bochao not only did not relax after hearing this, but his voice trembled.
Not an official person
This makes me even more scared!
He could barely understand how this huge government could detect and lock onto his location so quickly and against common sense. After all, it could mobilize a large amount of resources and facilities, and it also had the services of countless top talents from all over the country.
But if ordinary people or non-governmental organizations can do this, how terrifying would that force be
His intrusion was discovered instantly, so the traffic control system must be monitored at all times.
To be able to lock onto his location instantly, there must be a powerful hacker group that can crush him.
Moreover, locking the location and finding the person are two different things. It is impossible that the other party is just near his residence. The only way for them to find the person so quickly is that their personnel are spread all over Star City or even all over the country, and they can mobilize personnel nearby.
If this was not done by the government, it would be extremely far from the truth.
Besides, if the authorities came to him, at most they would accuse him of breaking the law. Maybe they would even recruit him because of his talent. But if he was approached by such a powerful and mysterious organization, who knows what would become of him
Did he offend them in some way? Was he going to be kidnapped? Was he going to be silenced
Or were you forced to join this organization
Or are you attracted by my perfect fat body and planning to do something shameful
The more you think about it, the more terrified you become.
