Chapter 59

59 The Real Big Boss

His ridicule and contempt had disgraced Braydon Neal in front of everyone.

In the dormitory building, in the six-person dormitory.

A swarthy young man was typing on the computer without a shirt on. A cold smile appeared on his lips.

“Boss, how did it go?” three guys beside him asked curiously.

“Do you even need to ask? Boss is ranked in the top 1000 on the National blacklist!” The man beside him had a look of admiration on his face.

After all, there were 1.4 billion people in the country, and hackers were as common as carps crossing the river. It was already considered pretty good to be ranked in the top 1000.

The dark-skinned young man smiled. “It’s no big deal. This teacher Neal is nothing special. His computer firewall is garbage!”

Just as they were talking and laughing.

“Oh, is that so?” An indifferent voice sounded.

“Of course. Eh? What the f*ck? Who’s talking?” The guys beside him were shocked.

The dark-skinned young man’s face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his cheeks. He could not help but look at the computer, but the mouse pointer was no longer under his control.

In the classroom, Braydon moved the mouse slightly, and six half-naked dormitory mates were projected on the screen.

This scene stunned all the students. They did not understand how Braydon had managed to catch them.

These six people were then used as negative examples by Braydon.

“You were careless. It’s nothing to be proud of to be able to enter the top 1000 of the blacklist!”

Two hours passed by quietly as Braydon continued his lecture.

Zachariah Sloan and the others were still not done and were entranced by the lecture. The six guys in the dormitory building were in a pitiful state as they were used as a negative example.

After class.

The six of them immediately unplugged the internet cable. The guy cried, “We’re really unlucky this time. We’ve been caught red-handed, so we’ll definitely be given a major demerit!”

“Boss, what’s wrong with you? You’ve been completely played!” The young man beside him mumbled.

The swarthy student, Peter Sullivan, had an unsightly expression on his face. He restarted his computer without a word and logged into a chat software. He opened a chat box called ‘master’.

Peter Sullivan: “Master! I’ve been bullied!

The master in the dialog box replied with a question mark.

Peter hastily explained everything.

A phone call soon came in. It was a middle-aged man who asked, “Peter, what’s going on?”

“Master, there’s a new professor in our school. I just wanted to test his abilities, but he aired me in the classroom for two hours and played me like a monkey. That’s just too much!”

Peter was indignant.

His roommates did not dare to speak.

This was because they knew that Peter’s master had met him on a Preston hacker forum. He was the director of the security department of the largest finance company in Preston.

He was a real big shot!

He had already said that Peter could apply to join the company after he graduated.

He had already found a job before he even graduated. He had a bright future ahead of him as compared to his peers.

In a separate office in the CBD building, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes wearing gold-rimmed glasses was sitting in the office. He quickly turned on the computer and entered the internal network of Preston University.

His name was Lewis Stewart, and he was a graduate of Preston University back then. He had entered the school intranet more than once when he was still in school and had left behind backdoors. He did not expect to enter again after so many years.

Braydon had just returned to the office with his laptop, and Dawson Lablanc followed him.

“Professor Neal, what’s wrong?” Dawson saw that Braydon had suddenly turned on the computer and could not help but ask.

“Someone’s here!” Braydon smiled.

“A hacker?” Dawson frowned slightly. He felt that the students at Preston University were getting more and more absurd!

This was the dean’s personal computer, not the public library, so not just anyone could set their eyes on it.

It was also illegal to hack into other people’s computers!

Braydon sat down calmly, watching the screen as the mouse went out of control. He wanted to see what the other party wanted.

This new computer, other than the lecture materials, had nothing else of value.

Lewis, who was in his own office, pushed up his glasses and frowned. “It’s that easy to hack? Was it an oversight, or was it a lack of ability?”

Lewis hacked into Braydon’s computer because he felt that this person was too arrogant. Bullying his favorite student was like slapping his face!

Immediately after, Lewis’ expression changed.

The computer he was using was connected to the company’s internal network, and his personal computer contained a lot of top-secret information. There were seven internal firewalls.

But now, when the first firewall sent out an alarm, it was broken through in an instant. The company’s second firewall was immediately activated.

What shocked Lewis was that the company’s first firewall was personally set up by him and his men. It had been actively attacked by external hackers before.

It took a full seven hours before they found a loophole and broke through!

Later on, Lewis made some improvements and confirmed that there were no loopholes.

But now, it had been easily broken through by someone.

Outside his office, a young man’s expression changed drastically. He rushed into the office and said in fear, “Boss, the company’s firewall has been breached!”

“I know!” Lewis’ face darkened.

The young man’s voice trembled as he said, “Which big shot did we offend? Last year, Red Lotus personally attacked our firewall. It took seven hours to break through. The firewall has been perfected, so he can’t breach it, but this...”

...

The young man was a little scared. He did not know who was hiding in the dark. It was terrifying. The person had broken through three of their Talon Finance Company’s firewalls in one go.

This happened in the blink of an eye. It was a little too terrifying.

That guy used ‘Red Lotus’ as his internet code name. Have you ever seen a hacker use his real name on the internet?

Red Lotus was one of the top three most ruthless hackers in Preston.

He was a third-generation hacker in the country and a well-known figure. Even he had to spend seven hours to try to breach the firewall, and now that it had been perfected, he was defeated by this unknown person!

In fact, in less than a minute, the seven firewalls of Talon company were activated one after another and all of them were broken through. The core of the company was directly infiltrated, and all the secret information was exposed to the eyes of outsiders.

This included the company’s boss’s account and Lewis’ internal network manager’s identity.

Talon company was the largest finance company in Preston which was involved in the financial industry.

It managed five funds, and each of them had assets no less than two billion!

Without exception, all of the fund accounts worthed more than ten billion were temporarily not logged in.

The company’s top-secret information was also locked up.

...

Talon’s president, Anthony Young, walked over in anger. “Lewis, what’s going on?”

“What the hell is your Security Department doing? Hurry up and recover our system!” The four vice presidents rushed in, their eyes red.

Many of the assets they were managing were entrusted by big shots. If there were any problems, all the senior executives of Talon would have to go to jail.

The young man’s voice trembled. “President Young, it’s a hacker. The other party’s ability is extremely terrifying. He only used fifteen seconds to break through seven firewalls!”
