Chapter 764: Old Master, Listen to Me, Thank You!

“Old Master, what did you say? Number One wants to see me? Can it be a mistake?” Zhou Chao stood up from the sofa in surprise.

“Yes!” There was a hint of helplessness in Old Master Jiang’s voice.

Zhou Chao was completely dumbfounded. Wasn’t it agreed earlier that the two old masters would handle these matters, and he wouldn’t intervene?

Who would have thought that suddenly he would receive a call informing him that Number One wanted to see him? Zhou Chao felt like there were countless alpacas running through his mind, back and forth, in a frenzy.

After all, plans can’t keep up with changes!

“Do I have to go? Can I skip it?” Zhou Chao asked tentatively.

“Sigh, you must go. It seems that Number One has something important to discuss with you in person. Also, there’s something I hope you won’t mind. It’s because the old man was too excited at the time!”

Old Master Jiang sighed deeply after speaking.

Upon hearing this sigh, a vague sense of foreboding arose in Zhou Chao’s heart.

“Take a deep breath, take a deep breath. It shouldn’t be too serious!” He silently encouraged himself, trying hard to calm down.

“Old Master, please tell me what happened!”

After all, when something happens, you have to face it. Who knows, it might even turn out to be beneficial for oneself!

Fortunately, this Trojan virus hadn’t transmitted the collected information yet when it was discovered, otherwise, the consequences would have been quite severe.

With such a major incident, Old Master Jiang knew it couldn’t be kept secret. After all, who knew if it was only the Chinese Academy of Sciences that was affected? If other departments were also affected, it might lead to the leakage of some important classified information.

After much deliberation, Old Master Jiang decided to report this matter to Number One, and information about Zhou Chao’s artificial intelligence system also came into Number One’s view.

After listening to Old Master’s explanation, although the mastermind behind the scenes wasn’t revealed, Zhou Chao knew that apart from the ubiquitous law enforcement agencies, no one else possessed such advanced hacking skills.

Who wouldn’t, considering they had the world’s most powerful network organization?

After reporting this matter, along with the previously reported technology for the transformation of sandy soil, came this phone call!

Zhou Chao also understood that he couldn’t escape this time. He immediately asked, “Old Master, do you know what time they want to meet?”

“Tomorrow. Someone will come to pick you up at home. Just wait at home! I hope you won’t blame the old man for selling you out.”

Hearing this, Zhou Chao smiled helplessly. He knew that Old Master Jiang’s actions were unintentional, and there was no resentment involved.

“Old Master, it’s alright. Since everything has already happened, it should be a good thing if Number One wants to see me!”

Although Zhou Chao said this, he had no confidence in his heart.

“Well, that’s good. I won’t bother you anymore!” Old Master Jiang seemed to feel relieved.

After hanging up the phone, he casually threw the phone aside and slumped weakly on the sofa.
