    Xu Zhizhi was once again taken away by Qin Su, leaving directly from the film set.

    Xu Yunlai was initially quite surprised, but upon seeing it was Qin Su, he immediately stopped his astonishment.

    Fu Nian even waved at Xu Zhizhi, signaling they’d see each other tomorrow.

    Xu Zhizhi looked at the person who had suddenly dashed back to wave at her and said, “I was just about to contact you all to go out for dinner but didn’t expect something would come up suddenly. Let’s find another day to go out, you all should head back to rest early!”

    “Bye!” Fu Nian continued waving.

    Her expression was quite intriguing, looking as if Xu Zhizhi was about to head into battle.

    Xu Yunlai admired her greatly; Xu Zhizhi was indeed a multi-faceted warrior!

    Both of them thought this, all thanks to Xu Zhizhi’s impressive performance in “Black Crow.”

    With the later mention of handling dollars and disguising, they understood Xu Zhizhi’s being taken away was definitely related to a case.

    To be approached by the captain of the criminal investigation team, Xu Zhizhi must possess some skills that even Qin Su didn’t have!

    On the side, Chu Yao looked at the two in confusion and asked, “Is that Xu Zhizhi’s friend?”

    “It’s her friend, nothing more!” Xu Yunlai explained first.

    Fu Nian nodded, “This person is a detective, Xu Zhizhi is going to do something major, don’t think too much into it.”

    “Oh!” Chu Yao nodded thoughtfully.

    She had thought the two were a couple, since they looked quite compatible.

    Wasn’t that the case? Chu Yao felt a little disappointed.

    The idea of shipping a CP (Couple) instantly collapsed; after all, she only shipped real couples, not fake ones she couldn’t digest.

    After Xu Zhizhi got into the car and left, Qin Su briefly explained the situation on the way.

    The opponent was a website that had started attacking from this afternoon; initially, it was only a shopping website.

    Later, it transformed into several websites, covering the government websites of Jiang City.

    They had been held accountable and brought in some professionals for defense.

    But the opponent was out for destruction, so everyone could only maintain the sites; they had no means to counter the attacks.

    Xu Zhizhi lowered her eyelids; this person was a bit excessive, stopping crime as if they had killed his parents.

    However, upon thinking it over, that might be true.

    As the saying goes: “Blocking someone’s path to wealth is like killing their parents!”

    Soon they arrived at the police station.

    When Xu Zhizhi entered the Cybersecurity Department this time, she was no longer in a state of being ignored but was swarmed with attention.

    The handsome young men and policewomen, who had previously slouched, perked up upon seeing Xu Zhizhi.

    Because they were dealing with an opponent who had learned some unorthodox methods, utilizing loopholes and data dump attacks, making it tough to deal with.

    They didn’t dare take action, fearing that within the data was something crucial to their website.

    By the time they took over, the servers were already on the brink of collapse.

    Had they not acted quickly enough, the opponent would have long since paralyzed the system.

    The losses that resulted would not merely amount to millions but likely into the hundreds of millions.

    Fingerprint comparisons had already been working overtime, but they found no connection to the opponent.

    Could it be a black account? Or foreign individuals?

    The most horrifying possibility was that information had been deleted, a scenario nobody dared to think about.

    Xu Zhizhi didn’t focus on that; she sat down and quickly organized a counterattack.

    Her fingers danced on the keyboard, her expression cold and stern.

    After further understanding, she was more convinced this was a challenge.

    Or perhaps it was just infuriation.

    But she felt a bit annoyed as well.

    If he could learn to back off in time, she absolutely wouldn’t be angry; by then, she wouldn’t even care to give him a glance.

    However, these methods of attacking ordinary people were truly vile, and she knew in her heart, they had to capture that person quickly.

    If the opponent escaped again, the next losses would be difficult to estimate.

    Perhaps the next time it would target the bank system.

    “Qin Su, get ready, always be prepared to depart!” Xu Zhizhi said while typing away at the keyboard.

    Qin Su nodded slightly, standing up straight, and said seriously, “Don’t worry, this time we’re deploying more police forces, we will catch him.”

    Although there were no leads from the fingerprint comparisons, they had urgently dispatched a crime psychology expert.

    The expert had already sketched a profile of the criminal, and this time, with a larger net, they would definitely be able to catch the opponent based on the profiling characteristics.

    “Alright, I’m starting! Get ready!” Xu Zhizhi didn’t use yesterday’s software; yesterday she was uncertain and just gauging the opponent’s strength.

    Since she now understood the opponent’s capabilities, she would act cautiously, ensuring the opponent wouldn’t discover her tracking.

    “Sister Xu, how long do you think this will take today? We need to prepare ourselves mentally!” a young man nearby quietly asked.

    Xu Zhizhi estimated and slightly frowned, “It’ll take a bit longer than yesterday because it needs to be more cautious.”

    “How long?” the young man curiously asked.

    Xu Zhizhi continued typing, saying, “Four minutes.”

    At her words, a collective gasp rippled through the crowd; what Xu Zhizhi said was truly terrifying.

    To be clear, before Xu Zhizhi arrived, no matter what they did, they couldn’t use the previous methods to locate her again.

    They felt regretful in their hearts; that segment of programming seemed utterly useless now, and they sighed at how quickly the opponent reacted.

    They thought Xu Zhizhi would need a lot of time to develop software to find the opponent since the previous program had been scrapped!

    Xu Zhizhi had even admitted she would take longer, but when they asked, it turned out to be just a minute longer!

    One minute!

    Xu Zhizhi was that frightening.

    Everyone looked over at Qin Su, their eyes filled with admiration.

    Because Captain Qin, just how did you invite such an expert here! And have her work so diligently!

    It must be that you accumulated a lot of good karma in your past life to have such divine assistance now.

    Hearing this, Xu Zhizhi turned back to glance, smiling, “No need to exaggerate; this is really not hard.”

    “Wuwuwu, Sister Xu, you don’t have to say that! We know you’re amazing!” the young man who spoke earlier said tearfully.

    Xu Zhizhi shook her head helplessly and said no more.

    Because it really was simple; it was just adjusting a bit of the previous program, allowing her to be undetected by the opponent’s defenses.

    In simpler terms, she took advantage; otherwise, Xu Zhizhi wouldn’t say it was easy.

    As they spoke, the four minutes soon arrived, and Xu Zhizhi crossed her arms in front of her chest, “OK! It’s done; the address is out.”

    As her voice fell, a line of addresses appeared.

    Qin Su picked up his phone, swiftly snapped a picture, and left.

    Before going out, one could see him clutching his phone, directing his people to set off quickly.

    Xu Zhizhi picked up the water they had poured on the table, closing her eyes to rest.

    Today had quite a few occurrences.

    At the same time, Xu Zhizhi also wondered who the person on the other side actually was.

    Since they had spent several hours previously together, a few people had begun to drift close to her as soon as Xu Zhizhi opened her eyes.

    “Sister Xu, you have no idea; this case has attracted attention from Beijing City.

    The other party is too arrogant, plus the profile suggests that the opponent is most likely a minor, which has made everyone even more anxious.” remarked the young man who spoke earlier.

    The details could not be discussed, but generally, there were still things to say.

    Another person nodded, “It’s really excessive; at first glance, they are clearly lawless minors.”

    This was similar to Xu Zhizhi’s speculation—impulsive, easy to anger, reckless in action, and quite sharp-minded.

    It wasn’t that they were adults with partial mental development; it was likely they were minors with immature minds.

    “Things might need to be judged strictly; very, very severely.” the young man added.

    Xu Zhizhi frowned, “This person indeed has talent, but they are too willful, impulsive, and easy to anger; they likely won’t wait for Beijing City to recruit them.”

    The others nodded. Initially having such skills should have gotten some leniency.

    But with this behavior, they cut off their own path.

    Then everyone pondered for a moment, looking to Xu Zhizhi.

    “Sister Xu, you might need to register in the future.” said the young man.

    Register, as the name suggests, means being listed in records in Beijing City.

    Even if one doesn’t go, they have to report, so they can be contacted in case anything happens.

    The others also nodded; however, this is a good thing, alleviating some worries from spontaneous encounters.

    Xu Zhizhi sighed inwardly; she had anticipated this scene long ago.

    Hacker techniques might seem simple, but in the current information age, it is an internet weapon.

    Fortunately, she could restrain herself a bit; she might even directly become a red hacker, cultivating a group of promising red hackers.

    Guardians of the internet world, what a nice name!

    Many people were as skilled as she was, and amid them, she didn’t stand out.

    Thinking of this, Xu Zhizhi continued teaching them the program.

    Everyone learned earnestly; after all, such opportunities were rare.

    An hour later, the police sirens echoed through the city bureau gates.

    Everyone quickly got up and rushed outside, seeing Qin Su and the joyful expression on his face right away.

    Then, a young boy who looked youthful and even a bit childish was escorted out in handcuffs, with two detectives on either side leading him toward Xu Zhizhi and the others standing on the steps.

    Xu Zhizhi looked down at him, and his gaze suddenly shot toward her.

    His lips, previously tightly pressed, parted slightly, his eyes reflecting deep contemplation, then suddenly shot a piercing stare at Xu Zhizhi.

    Xu Zhizhi watched him, guessing he had figured out that she was the one who found him.

    Those who played with these computer techniques were smarter than average people.

    She didn’t say a word, just silently observed, remaining silent.

    The boy paused for a moment in silence, and then after stepping onto the steps, he slowly moved toward Xu Zhizhi’s direction.

    Just as he was about to get close to Xu Zhizhi, he took large strides and stood before her.

    His eyes instantly glistened with tears, and then he erupted with a ferocious roar, shouting loudly, “Xu Zhizhi! I know you! Do you have any idea how much I need that two million? You don’t know; you only destroy my plans!”

    “If you have money, does that mean others can’t have money!”

    Behind him, two detectives tightly restrained the boy and angrily reprimanded him to behave.

    “I don’t know, I also don’t need to know; after all, I don’t need to sympathize with you.” Xu Zhizhi replied coldly, “I have money, but my money is earned legitimately; your attacks are futile.”

    Then she stepped
