“How about Lee?” Ah Mo asked, “You’re not going to be the only rookie to compete, are you?”

The crowd laughed.

Wu Wei wasn’t angry. Most hackers had their own pride, and this kind of provocation was common. He whispered to Guo Miao, “He’s a member of JS. His name is Ah Mo. The man in the middle is their current leader, J.”

J looked at Wu Wei and extended his hand. “I’ve long heard of your great name.”

Just as Wu Wei was about to shake hands with him, J suddenly retracted his hand. “But that’s all there is to him in person.”

Wu Wei tutted. This person didn’t have to humiliate him like this. After all, he had an expert behind him.

“This is my teammate for today. His name is Chengcheng. Wu Wei turned to look at Guo Miao, not knowing how to introduce her.

“Mindy,” Guo Miao said. She deliberately lowered her voice, making it sound more like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager. This was the name she had used when she participated in the competition in the Empire.

“Mindy.” Ah Mo looked at her carefully. “The voice doesn’t sound like a girl’s. It sounds like a child who hasn’t graduated from junior high school.”

“Why is he using a girl’s name? Haha!” Ah Mo laughed wildly.

“Quiet, Ah Mo.” J stood up. Since we’re the ones who issued the challenge, you can set the rules, Wu.”

“Best of three. Each round, you will choose your topic and we will choose our topic. What do you think?” Wu Wei said.

“Alright,” J said with a nod.

“Then, you’ll play the first round, Wu Wei. Let this kid have a good look. A junior high school student should go back and play games, not take part in a hackathon with us,” Ah Mo provoked.

He was mainly in charge of the Jinyue Group’s project last time, and he had been holding a grudge against Wu Wei since he failed to win the project.

“What are we playing?” Wu Wei asked.

“Let’s play something simple. How about destroying a virus?”

The people below laughed when they heard this. Destroying a virus was child’s play, and it was usually the simplest and most basic thing.

It was undoubtedly a humiliation to Wu Wei for Ah Mo to use this in the competition.

After all, everyone present knew that Wu Wei had been troubled by the virus they had invented for a long time.

“Alright,” he said.

Wu Wei chose a few viruses, all of which were the latest international viruses that had yet to be cracked.

“Alright,” he said. Ah Mo nodded, tore open the packaging, and began to crack it nonchalantly while eating a lollipop.

Wu Wei’s mind was indeed not sharp enough in this aspect.

Guo Miao stood behind the two and watched their movements.

It was obvious that Ah Mo was an expert at cracking viruses, while Wu Wei was a little weaker. He was a few steps slower than Ah Mo.

Wu Wei only finished the first one when Ah Mo was halfway through the second one.

Naturally, Wu Wei lost.

Ah Mo nonchalantly crushed the lollipop in his mouth. “Alright, bros, let’s go home and play League of Legends. This game isn’t suitable for underaged kids like you.”

The crowd laughed again.

Wu Wei gritted his teeth. “That was just the first round. There are still two more rounds, aren’t there?”

Everyone laughed again. Wu’s skill level was indeed sub-par. Why did he have to play another match?

Can Xing looked at the person behind him and said slowly, “I’ll play the second round, but I don’t want to compete with you. I want to compete with the middle school student standing behind you.”

Can Xing did not think that Mindy was a simple person.

Originally, they had only challenged Wu and Lee. However, the person who appeared with them was definitely not someone simple.

Perhaps the previous mission was set up by this junior high school student.

Guo Miao was about to fight when the door suddenly opened and a man walked in. He was wearing a clown mask and standing at the door. The mask had the word “Lee” on it.

Guo Miao looked at him. The eyes behind the mask were very familiar to her.

“This is my boss. He’s really powerful,” Wu Wei said softly.

“I’ll play the second round.” He looked at Can Xing and said, “It’s Mindy’s first time here. Let’s just settle our competition. Don’t make things difficult for my friend.”

Guo Miao looked at him and nodded slightly, indicating that he should compete first.

Can Xing chose to hack into the phone’s system.

As a hacker, not only did he need to know how to crack websites, but he also needed to know about the current mobile phone system.

The two of them sat in front of the computer and started the game.

Compared to Wu Wei, the hacker named “Lee” was obviously more skilled. He was also very good at mental arithmetic.

This person should also be good at mathematics.
