Chapter 76: Famous, Checked ID
When Tang Zhiyun and the others returned to their dorm room to play games, they saw the World Channel that had exploded.
“What happened?”
Tang Zhiyun browsed the World Channel quickly and made a “Damn” sound. Then he said to the others:
“Look, that catfish [Bai Ling] who teamed up with us the other day has risen from level 35 to level 57 in just a day!”
When Xie Minghai, Yu Lei, and Xu Qingfeng heard this, they quickly entered the game.
Xie Minghai looked at the World Channel and said, “This must be someone’s smurf account. If not, he must be a gaming expert.”
Yu Lei replied, “Maybe he’s an expert from another server. When we teamed up the day before yesterday, I’d especially observed him. This person navigates the game in an impressive manner.”
After they finished speaking, one of them operated his game character to go to the PK arena.
At this moment, Xu Qingfeng, who had been silent all this time, said, “Not necessarily.”
The three of them looked at him at the same time. Xu Qingfeng quickly typed on the keyboard. After ten seconds, he continued, “I’ve already found the approximate location of this person’s ID. It’s in the old district. If he’s really an expert in games, he should know how to hide his ID.”
When the three of them heard this, they came over at the same time to look at Xu Qingfeng’s computer.
Xie Minghai: “D*mn, it’s true… Qingfeng can find this out, and there’s no shortage of experts in the game. Many people might have already found out as well. If this person is exposed, it might cause trouble. Should we help him?”
Yu Lei: “We don’t know about this person’s background yet. I think we should just warn him.”
Then he looked at Tang Zhiyun. “Boss, what do you think?”
Tang Zhiyun thought for a moment and agreed with him. “Let us warn him first.”
The PK ended at five in the afternoon.
When Chu Luo and Wang Mingtao came out of the PK field, they saw a crowded square.
[Evil Dragon Crossing the River]: “(Confused face…) What exactly happened? Why are so many people here at the PK field today?”
Chu Luo quickly glanced at the words above their heads and immediately knew the reason.
Wang Mingtao quickly found out the reason too. He hurriedly sent a private message to Chu Luo.
[Evil Dragon Crossing the River]: “Boss, you’re famous!”
After a while, [Evil Dragon Crossing the River]: “Boss, something bad has happened. Someone is looking up your IP. You better buy a protective wall or someone will hack you.”
[Bai Ling]: “Hack? What is that?”
[Evil Dragon Crossing the River]: “Boss, you don’t even know this? It means blah blah blah blah blah.”
After seeing the long series of explanations from Wang Mingtao, Chu Luo said to him, “I’m going offline.”
With that, she got off the game.
All the players who were watching [Bai Ling]: “???”
Where is he?
What is going on?
Scared off?
After Chu Luo went offline, she first closed the Internet, then quickly filtered through the computer books she had been reading during this period of time. Finally, she called Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu was very surprised that Chu Luo would call him. He quickly asked, “Xiao Chu, is there anything you need my help with?”
Chu Luo responded with an “Mm” and said in an embarrassed tone, “I want to build a protective wall for my IP so that even hackers can’t find it. Can you tell me what to do?”
The other party suddenly fell silent.
Chu Luo was a little disappointed. “It can’t be done?”
Mr. Wu: “No… If Xiao Chu wants to build an IP protection wall, I can help.”
Chu Luo replied, “No need. You just have to tell me what to do. I’ll do it myself.”
“Xiao Chu.” Mr. Wu seemed to be afraid of destroying her confidence, so his tone was a little careful. “Ordinary protective walls are easy to construct, but if you want to make something that even hackers can’t break into, it’s a very difficult territory. You need to learn…”
Mr. Wu then told Chu Luo what she needed to learn about computer science.
Chu Luo didn’t at all sense Mr. Wu’s good intentions in not wanting to destroy her confidence. The more she listened, the brighter her eyes became. She said, “I want to learn.”
Again, silence on the other end.
This time, after nearly half a minute, Mr. Wu said, “Since Xiao Chu wants to learn, how about this? Come to my house and I’ll teach you tonight.”
Chu Luo agreed happily.
The other house that Mr. Wu bought was also in the old district, but it was a little far from where Chu Luo lived.
One was in the east while the other was in the west.
When Chu Luo went there, Mr. Wu’s family of three was waiting for her at the gate.
When Mrs. Wu saw her, her eyes were filled with grateful tears and she was about to shed tears of gratitude again.
Chu Luo smiled and waved her hand. “This was fated between us. You don’t have to keep thanking me.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Master is right. We must have accumulated luck in our previous lives to have met Master, who helped our family resolve our troubles.”
“Madam, you can call me Xiao Chu like Professor Wu does.”
“Oh, okay. Xiao Chu, don’t call me Madam. If you don’t mind, just call me Auntie Wu.”
“Okay.”
Standing at the side, Miss Wu, who had been smiling at Chu Luo, spoke up at this moment. Her voice was soft and pleasant to listen to. “Dad, Mom, don’t just let Sister Chu stand by the door. Let’s invite her in first to talk.”
After Miss Wu finished speaking, she looked at Chu Luo and asked with a smile, “My name is Wu Yiyao. You don’t mind if I called you Sister Chu, do you?”
Chu Luo smiled and shook her head. “I don’t mind.”
After saying that, she looked at her face and said, “Sister Wu, try not to go out and be exposed to the wind during this period of time.”
“Okay, I’ll go lie down later.” Wu Yiyao had injured her core and was now gasping for breath after taking a few steps.
The small group walked in together.
As Mr. Wu walked, he said, “Xiao Chu, you really want to learn the hidden ID firewall technique? I can teach you for one night, but I can’t guarantee that you can learn it. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Chu Luo knew that Mr. Wu meant well, so she nodded. “I know. Professor Wu, just go ahead and teach it.”
Mrs. Wu and Wu Yiyao looked at each other.
The two of them were also worried that Chu Luo would be disappointed when she failed to learn it.
Then, through a night of learning, Chu Luo demonstrated to the three people from the Wu family what a god-like existence was.
Mrs. Wu was worried about Mr. Wu teaching Chu Luo, so she stayed up with them and served them tea and water from time to time. In the middle of the night, she even made Chu Luo a few pastry snacks.
Every time she came in, she would see an unusually serious expression on Chu Luo’s petite face.
In the latter half of the night, Mr. Wu and Chu Luo wrote a firewall program together.
When the first ray of light appeared on the horizon, Chu Luo looked up from her computer and said to the two of them with a brilliant smile, “The firewall we made intercepted several computer hackers.”
Mr. Wu looked at Chu Luo, who was so excited that her petite face was red. He was filled with emotions in his heart and invited her seriously, “Xiao Chu, when the time comes, if you’re willing, you can report to me at Imperial University.”
Chu Luo didn’t know what it meant for an Imperial University professor to invite a freshman to report to him. As she was very interested in computer science, she nodded and said, “Okay.”
After saying that, she even smiled at them and said, “I plan to study a few more subjects… How many specializations can a university student enroll in at the same time?”
“Erm…”
Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu looked at each other.
Mrs. Wu smiled and said, “Xiao Chu, if you can cope with it, you can apply for as many specializations as you want. However, even after you sign up, some of the more popular specializations will choose among the students, and there will be conflicts during the exam. Therefore, you have to consider their exam time before you choose two or more specializations.”
“Okay, got it.”
Chu Luo stood up after saying that. “I’ll go back first, then. I can try out the knowledge I learned tonight.”
Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu tried their best to make Chu Luo stay for breakfast, but Chu Luo declined.
After Chu Luo left, Mrs. Wu asked Mr. Wu, “What do you think of Xiao Chu’s computer skills?”
Mr. Wu said excitedly, “She’s the best student I’ve seen… If she really goes into the field of computer science, she’ll definitely become a legend!”
After Chu Luo returned, she uploaded the identities of those people who wanted to expose her on the Internet. The entire Internet was shocked.
At the same time, her actions alarmed some big shots on the Internet.
What would happen on the Internet? Of course, this was something to be discussed later.
Chu Luo spent the entire morning on this. Just as she was about to eat lunch, someone came in and told her, “Miss Chu, there are a few people outside. They say they are your uncle and cousins.”
Chu Luo put down her chopsticks and smiled. “They came quite quickly.”
After saying that, she stood up and walked out of the door.
As soon as she walked out of the gate, she saw Chu Zhengyang, who was waiting anxiously by the gate, shouting excitedly, “Luoluo.”
When he called out to Chu Luo, it sounded like he was about to shed tears of joy having recovered something that he’d lost.
Chu Luo, however, stopped in the middle of the courtyard and asked with a straight face, “Why are you here?”
“Uncle is here to bring you home.”
“Home?” Chu Luo sneered. “Didn’t you give your consent to her to chase me away?”
“How is that possible!” Chu Zhengyang raised his voice when he heard this. He was so angry that his chest heaved up and down. He gritted his teeth and asked, “Did your aunt tell you that?”
Chu Luo pursed her lips and looked at him. She didn’t answer, but Chu Zhengyang’s expression turned even uglier. He walked towards Chu Luo and explained anxiously, “Luoluo, Uncle has never said that. You have to believe me.”
“Is that so?”
Chu Luo suddenly smiled at him and stopped talking about this matter. Instead, she asked, “Have you brought Master here?”
Chu Zhengyang suddenly stopped in his tracks. His eyes flashed and he felt that he couldn’t look at Chu Luo.
He didn’t know why either. His brother-in-law had failed to invite Master Xiang over even though he’d called personally. They’re now planning to look for other masters.
“No?” Chu Luo’s eyes flashed with ridicule. “Then why did you come to me? To make me go back and continue to tolerate her framing and suppressing me?”
Chu Luo’s words made Chu Zhengyang speechless.
Wei Zihan and Wei Xueying came with Chu Zhengyang.
Hearing Chu Luo’s question, Wei Zihan knew that his uncle couldn’t hold on anymore. He quickly signaled to Wei Xueying with his eyes.
