The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus

Chapter 356

Huo Chengdong: "The security systems of all the branch offices in A City have been indiscriminately attacked by these foreign products!"

When news spread that Hacker X was from Hua Country, it immediately caused an uproar among hackers from around the world.

Their first reaction was to ridicule, followed by insults.

The unity among the hackers was unprecedented.

They all criticized the Hua Country people for their wild imagination and accused them of suffering from delusions. They accused Qiao Ying of insulting Hacker X and the entire hacker community.

After the news spread, Capital University's security system became the primary target and was immediately besieged by hackers.

If it weren't for Qiao Ying's reinforcement, it would have been completely destroyed. However, it couldn't withstand the relentless attacks of the hackers, and within a month, it was left in ruins.

Ironically,

most of these hackers were followers of Hacker X.

At first, only a few who were filled with righteous indignation took action, while others watched the situation unfold silently.

After the fall of Capital University, several other prestigious universities in Hua Country also suffered, enduring constant disturbances. Throughout that year, the boards of directors and education departments of these universities were greatly troubled.

The Hua Country hackers also had their pride, and one by one, they stood up to defend their dignity. They voluntarily rebuilt the damaged schools, but their efforts were limited due to lack of resources and power.

Since they couldn't protect themselves, they turned to mutual harm.

As a result, hidden hackers in Hua Country emerged one after another, retaliating in the same way. The Hua Country hackers united against the attackers, even if they could only recover a fraction of what was lost.

As the conflict escalated, not only schools but also many iconic buildings in Hua Country fell victim to malicious attacks by hackers.

At first, some rational hackers doubted the claim that the mysterious X was from Hua Country and refrained from joining the chaos, merely observing from the sidelines.

But after nearly a year had passed without Hacker X speaking out to defend Hua Country, his silence undoubtedly denied his Hua Country identity, and the hackers became even more audacious.

This was a war without gunfire.

The situation intensified, and the Hua Country hackers faced provocation after provocation, culminating in a challenge from hackers worldwide.

The challenges ranged from online competitions to large-scale international tournaments.

The Hua Country hackers rose to the occasion, finding honor in their defeats.

"Ah," Zhang Chengyong sighed.

He took out his phone, once again thinking of seeking help from Qin Hanyue.

Zhang Chengyong, who was already past retirement age, now had to come to the school every day. He never expected that after so many years of peaceful times during his tenure, he would face such a calamity after retiring.

Qiao Ying's words had directly caused this public outrage.

Qiao Ying's voice sounded, "Why sigh?"

Zhang Chengyong turned around and saw Qiao Ying appearing with a computer.

"Qiao, when did you come back?" Zhang Chengyong stood up, his face filled with indescribable joy.

"Why have you become so thin? What happened? I've been looking for you everywhere, asking about Qin Hanyue, but I couldn't even find a trace of him."

Qiao Ying walked over with her computer and said, "I've been traveling around, let's just call it a vacation." Just like Huo Chengdong said, Zhang Chengyong's hair had turned completely white.

Qiao Ying sat down on the sofa, opened her computer, and began to create a brand-new security system.

While working, she asked Zhang Chengyong, "Capital University was under siege for a whole year. Why didn't you try to find Qin Hanyue?"

Zhang Chengyong replied, "I tried, but I couldn't find him. Last year, shortly after you took your leave, I went to look for him. His father said he was on a business trip. A few months later, I heard he had returned, but still couldn't see him."

Qiao Ying nodded and said, "I forgot, he went on a trip with me."

Zhang Chengyong looked at the screen filled with code on Qiao Ying's computer and expressed his concern, "Qiao, can you handle this? They told the old man and me that this is not a job for one or two people. They said we provoked the anger of the people in Hua Country. This can't go on like this. Can you see if your friend, that hacker X, can help us? I don't understand much about your hacker empire, but I know your friend has a significant position in the hacker world. If you can get him to speak up, this matter should be resolved."

Qiao Ying readily agreed, "Sure, I'll step forward and say a few words later."

Zhang Chengyong nodded, "That's good."

Suddenly realizing something was amiss, he turned his head sharply and stared at Qiao Ying, his old eyes widened, "Are you Hacker X?!"

Almost shouting.

Qiao Ying smiled and asked, "Do you want an autograph?"

It's no wonder Zhang Chengyong had such a strong reaction. Although he didn't quite understand the nature of the Hacker Empire, he knew that Hacker X was like a messiah figure.

The entire hacker community and network technicians, including his computer science students, revered Hacker X.

They worshiped Hacker X like a religion.

In the real world, that would make him the ruler of a nation.

Zhang Chengyong regained his composure and said, "No wonder the 509 Supervision Bureau is digging into you."

Qiao Ying replied, "They still don't know it's me."

Zhang Chengyong whispered, "If they find out..."

He lowered his voice even further, "Won't the country forcibly conscript you?"

Continuing in a hushed tone, he said, "Xuzhili told me about this Hacker X, that is, you. He said you've done a lot of illegal things online."

In Xuzhili's eyes, these illegal activities were glorious feats worthy of being recorded in history.

"And they are all serious crimes. If your identity is exposed to the outside world..."

Qiao Ying typed rapidly on her keyboard and said, "I never attacked Hua Country."

Zhang Chengyong responded, "What about the incident with Xiaohe?"

Qiao Ying replied, "There's no evidence."

Zhang Chengyong sighed.

Shaking his head, he said, "You said earlier that you were good with computers. Today, I finally understand what level you meant by 'good.'"

Qiao Ying paused and said, "I'm done."

Zhang Chengyong asked in surprise, "Is that it?"

Qiao Ying explained, "The money from selling this security system could build another Capital University."

Zhang Chengyong exclaimed, "Is it worth that much? So, the Hacker Empire is like a talent market. I, an old man, don't understand. I've always seen them as anti-social elements."

Qiao Ying asked, "Anti-social elements?"

Upon careful consideration, Zhang Chengyong thought, "Well, I suppose so." After all, there weren't many decent people around.

With the installation of the new security system, Capital University calmed down.

However, Qiao Ying's activities did not cease.

Seeing her still tinkering away, Zhang Chengyong asked her.

Qiao Ying: "Our Hua Country is known for its warm hospitality, and it's customary to reciprocate kindness. After being bullied for so long, we should at least give them a taste of their own medicine."

Taking into account his limited knowledge of the matter, Zhang Chengyong pondered her words and finally asked, "Is it illegal?"

Mischievously, she whispered, "Shh~ Keep your voice down, don't let anyone find out."

Zhang Chengyong: "???" Is she being serious?
