Time passed slowly, like flowing water, making it hard to notice. The cyber warfare had been ongoing for ten hours and was still continuing. Mo Ming's intrusion activities were aggressive, and the employees of Feng Tianshu's Antivirus Software Company and the police force were overwhelmed.
However, the mastermind behind this battle, Mo Ming, was much more relaxed than they were. He typed on the keyboard with one hand while using a fork to eat with the other. It must be said that Aunt Xiang's cooking was delicious, providing Mo Ming with considerable mental strength.
Food is essential for people; only when one is well-fed can they work properly. This battle was quite exhausting. It seemed simple, just casually typing on the keyboard, but in reality, every moment was tense in Mo Ming's mind. A regular person would probably go crazy under such pressure.
The current situation was under Mo Ming's control. Feng Tianshu's Antivirus Software Company and the Nanhua City Police Force were still working hard to crack the computer virus that Mo Ming had injected.
Just as Mo Ming finished eating and stretched lazily, his phone rang. Upon seeing the number, he couldn't help but frown.
It was an unknown number without any notes, but Mo Ming knew who the caller was.
It was his father, Mo Zhentian. At this moment, he seemed to have guessed the purpose of the call.
Mo Ming hesitated for a moment but ultimately answered. Before he could speak, the other party said darkly, "Where are you?"
"Nanhua City," Mo Ming replied lazily.
"The cyber warfare in Nanhua City was initiated by you, right?"
"Yes, it was me, old man. There's no need to alarm you over this matter, is there?" Mo Ming forced a smile.
Generally, such small matters wouldn't warrant Mo Zhentian's involvement. Although Mo Ming had guessed his father's purpose for calling, hearing him ask still made him feel a bit frustrated.
"How could I not get involved? Don't you know this has caught the attention of higher authorities? If I don't step in, you'll never be able to set foot in our country again!"
Mo Zhentian laughed and scolded, "Good kid, pretty impressive, daring to hack the national police system all by yourself?"
"Uh, no way, this incident could even alarm Number One?" Mo Ming said with frustration.
"You've got some guts to hack the police system? As soon as I heard there was a mysterious hacker in Nanhua City, I guessed it was you. Damn it, you've even been mistaken for a spy sent by M Country!" Mo Zhentian's tone became slightly more intense.
It was hard to tell whether he was angry or pleased, as there was a hint of pride in his voice.
Mo Ming smiled wryly and said, "A spy from M Country? No way! I just wanted to track someone's whereabouts; I didn't do anything harmful to the country. Damn it, am I really being treated as a spy?"
"Hey, I'm your father; watch your language when you talk!"
Mo Ming rolled his eyes and replied, "I'm just learning from you. As they say, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. Don't you understand?"
"Damn it, you little brat! If you were here beside me right now, do you believe I'd kick your butt with my military boots?" Mo Zhentian laughed and scolded.
Actually, their conversations often went like this. Mo Zhentian wouldn't really get angry because he knew that Mo Ming wouldn't take it too seriously.
"Alright, old man, have you solved this issue for me?" Mo Ming asked seriously.
If this incident had alarmed Number One, it would have become too big of a deal. He could easily be accused of treason, and Mo Ming didn't want to be wrongfully blamed.
"You are my son; how could I not help you? Tell me, what was your intention behind this action?" Mo Zhentian asked sternly.
"I want to track down the whereabouts of Nanhua City Little Green Society Yang Fan. The purpose of hacking into the police system is to prevent them from locking onto my IP. Old man, that's how it is; there's absolutely no betrayal of the country involved. You have to help me!" Mo Ming said earnestly.
"Of course, if I don't help you, who will? I know my son best; he would never betray the country! Who dares to spread such nonsense? I'll take them out with a bullet!"
Mo Zhentian said a bit loudly, "Alright, I'll handle this matter for you. Just rest assured."
"With your word, I feel at ease." Mo Ming felt warmth in his heart; he was touched by the long-lost fatherly love he experienced again today.
"By the way, you should come back and visit when you have time. Your mother misses you so much that she's almost going crazy. She mentions you every day. If you don't come back soon, I'll just have to drag you back!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Ming broke into a joyful smile. Being away from home, a loving mother always misses her child. Today's conversation with Mo Zhentian truly moved Mo Ming deeply.
"Hehe, if Mom misses me, don’t you miss me too, old man?" Mo Ming chuckled. In reality, Mo Zhentian's feelings of longing were not something he would openly express; after all, he was a man and preferred not to verbalize many things.
"Stop joking around with me. Remember, come back and see your mom when you can. It's not wartime; don’t be out there risking your life every day. I know you have your struggles, but I hope you'll cherish your own life!"
It was rare for Mo Zhentian to speak so earnestly. After hearing this, Mo Ming couldn't help but smile sweetly and said, "Okay, I'll come back when I can."
"Don't just talk without action; isn't the New Year coming up? You must come back once. Also, bring all those girlfriends of yours back for me to see if they're worthy of becoming part of the Mo family!"
Originally, Mo Ming wanted to say "I know," but after hearing Mo Zhentian's words, he almost dropped his phone in shock and exclaimed, "Old man, where did you hear about these rumors? Don't tell me you've sent someone to follow me?"
"Damn it, do you think I don't understand your affairs? Let me tell you, I have news about everything you do. Even when you established the Dragon Soul Gang in Y Country, I knew about it!" Mo Zhentian laughed wildly. "As for where I got my information from, I'm not telling you that. But I can tell you this: I'm afraid to send someone to follow you because they might get taken out by you!"
Mo Ming smiled wryly and shook his head. In fact, Mo Zhentian had exaggerated a bit; if he had sent someone to follow him, Mo Ming would have only been discovered, and there was no way he would resort to violence. However, after such a long time, Mo Ming had not noticed anyone watching him. Either the other party's tracking skills were excellent, or Mo Zhentian hadn't sent anyone to follow him.
Mo Ming leaned towards the latter. After all, he understood Mo Zhentian's personality; he would never engage in such trivial matters.
Mo Zhentian said in a commanding tone, "Kid, remember to bring your girlfriend back!"
"Old man, I have things to do right now, so I won't waste time chatting with you. That's it for now."
With that, Mo Ming hung up directly.
Phew!
Mo Ming let out a frustrated breath and put down his phone, puzzled about how the old man had obtained so much information.
"Forget it, let's focus on the main task first; I'll think about these things when I have time." Mo Ming shrugged and continued to invest his energy in the online battle.
Three minutes later, Mo Ming couldn't help but furrow his brows. "Has the police department cracked my virus?"
This was truly unexpected for Mo Ming; the police department had managed to resolve it much sooner than anticipated.
After waiting for a minute, Mo Ming finally understood the situation. The police department had cleared the virus without locking onto his IP address, which indicated that Mo Zhentian had intervened.
"Heh heh, the old man lives up to his reputation. He doesn't act unless necessary, but when he does, he takes care of those police officers for me. This time, without police interference, I can relax."
Mo Ming smiled, his hands no longer tapping on the keyboard. With the police no longer involved, he felt much more relaxed.
Indeed, the Antivirus Software Company was unable to deal with Mo Ming, and it took two days to resolve that virus. At this point, Mo Ming was almost reaching his goal.
A line of text appeared on one screen: "Analysis remaining at ninety percent."
"Damn it, after analyzing so much, I still haven't found any information on Yang Fan?" Mo Ming chuckled helplessly. Just as he was about to grab a cigarette to refresh himself, he realized he had run out.
In just two days, this room had become a mess, and Mo Ming's behavior resembled that of those struggling shut-ins. Who would have thought that this seemingly reclusive figure was actually a notorious figure known as the Shura?
"Damn it..." Just as Mo Ming felt frustrated about not having any cigarettes, a red alert appeared on the screen.
Mo Ming couldn't help but feel a surge of joy as he quickly typed on the keyboard: "I knew you would definitely use a computer; ha, I knew it would happen!"
The computer screen displayed a series of files, some were bank payment records, while others were footage captured by surveillance cameras.
Mo Ming opened one and felt a bit disappointed. The people in the footage bore some resemblance to Yang Fan, but they were not him.
Mo Ming continued to look through other files and noticed many different addresses. This frustrated him; there were too many people in Nanhua City with the name Yang Fan, and these records belonged to different individuals.
"Ugh, I guess I need to be more patient and analyze this further," Mo Ming sighed and began analyzing again.
The first Yang Fan was located on Colorful Sea Road. It was a crowded place, and if Mo Ming were Yang Fan, he would never choose such a busy area to hide. In this era, there was no such thing as a completely safe place; if Yang Fan were hiding among so many people, given his status in Nanhua City, he would surely attract attention.
Yang Fan is someone who has grown accustomed to a good life. Even if he hides, he won't allow himself to live like a rat in the underground, leading a shabby existence. Therefore, based on Mo Ming's speculation, the place where Yang Fan is hiding must be somewhere with few people and a decent environment.
...
Mo Ming narrowed down Yang Fan's IP addresses through his analysis and after filtering out some options, he confirmed two addresses associated with Yang Fan. The first address is Dragon View Mountain Mansion, and the second is Seaview Huacheng. One is located in the mountains and the other by the sea; both are places with few people and good surroundings. Mo Ming has a feeling that one of these must be Yang Fan's hiding spot.
Without delay, after analyzing the results, Mo Ming immediately called Poisonous Madness and said, "I have roughly located Yang Fan's hiding spots, but I'm not sure yet. Take your brothers to monitor them. If it turns out to be where Yang Fan is hiding, let me know immediately, but don't alert him!"
"Got it. What's the address?"
Mo Ming replied calmly, "The first one is Dragon View Mountain Mansion, and the second is Seaview Huacheng. We need to act quickly to prevent Yang Fan from noticing and moving."
"Don't worry, boss. I never drag my feet when it comes to work. I'll take my brothers there right away!"
"Beep beep beep..." Poisonous Madness hung up.
Mo Ming then took out the Golden Qilin from his belongings, pressed its eye, and immediately shut down his computer. He left Murong Wei's Hillside Mansion and headed straight for the gathering place of the Undead Celestial Executioner. This time, he deemed it necessary to utilize the power of the Undead Celestial Executioner.
