“Yes.” Zhou Xuan nodded lightly. Looking at the middle finger pattern on the screen, he narrowed his eyes and subconsciously tapped his fingers on the table.
He Sheng was stunned for a long time before he accepted that the person who had used hacking skills to crush him just now was the famous Zero on the hacker rankings. For a moment, his breathing quickened.
“Who’s the Zero you’re talking about?” Lin Xiao asked curiously. Was this hacker called Zero related to the mysterious person they were looking for?
He Sheng explained excitedly, “Zero is the top hacker on the world’s hacker rankings. It’s said that with Zero’s strength alone, she can hack an entire federal agency. She’s also my idol!”
“The world’s number one?” Even Zhang Huang, who was old and had seen the world, was shocked by this title.
He Sheng said, “That’s right, but since there’s such a terrifying big shot beside the mysterious person you’re looking for, it can only mean that the mysterious person’s identity is also extraordinary. No wonder he rejected your invitation. He might be afraid of exposing his identity.”
Hearing that the mysterious person they were looking for actually had the world’s number one hacker beside him, the chances of finding this person were even slimmer. Lin Xiao and Zhang Huang sighed regretfully.
“No.” Zhou Xuan suddenly corrected her with a serious expression. “The mysterious person who solved the super difficult questions and this hacker might be the same person.”
“The same person? No, no way?” Lin Xiao was immediately stunned.
If the genius who solved the question and Zero, who was proficient in hacking, were the same person, then this person was too outstanding, right? It would take at least a few years or decades to nurture a specialty. Ordinary people might not be able to become a master in a specialty field in their entire lives, but this Zero alone occupied two. How could they live? She could be called a monster!
He Sheng looked over eagerly and asked curiously, “President Zhou, how did you come to this conclusion? Tell us.”
However, just as everyone was hoping that Zhou Xuan would give a clear and reasonable explanation, Zhou Xuan moved his lips. “I guessed based on my instincts.”
He Sheng was confused. He did not expect that Zhou Xuan, who had always been strict and powerful, would be forced to guess the truth with his feelings one day. However, it was not strange. Zero was really cautious and cunning. She fought them several times, but she did not expose any personal information.
Thinking of this, He Sheng could understand Zhou Xuan.
After a pause, Zhou Xuan added, “I looked at the four answers uploaded by that mysterious account previously and realized that the logical thinking in the answers is extremely similar to Zero’s programming logic.”
Many years ago, in order to win against Zero in hacking technology, he had carefully studied a few programs and viruses that Zero had published. He was very familiar with Zero’s logical habits.
Among the four answers, Zhou Xuan also sensed a familiar feeling, so he came to the conclusion that the person who answered the question was Zero.
“You can tell?” He Sheng was even more confused.
On the other hand, Lin Xiao immediately understood what Zhou Xuan meant. His eyes lit up and he quickly took out his phone to see the answer again. However, just as he was about to click on the post that only had four pictures but was followed by countless people, he was surprised to find that the post had disappeared.
Lin Xiao refreshed it a few times in disbelief and flipped through the private messages. His expression immediately changed. “Director Zhang, the answer post sent by that mysterious person and the mysterious person’s account have all been deleted and canceled.”
“This…” Zhang Huang was in a daze for a moment before sighing slowly. “It seems that our actions made her angry. Sigh.”
They had no choice but to resort to this method. They did not deliberately want to disgust others.
Seeing Lin Xiao and Zhang Huang’s dejected expressions, Zhou Xuan kindly reminded them, “They might not be interested in the conditions you can provide.”
