Chapter 809 - How To Train A Hacker

“Oh dear, Mister Xia. You didn’t go home yesterday night?” gushed Qing Caiyue as soon as she entered Xia Lei’s office.

Her voice made Xia Lei peer up from his screen. He glanced at her before looking down. “You really think being a boss is easy? I’m always busting my ass off while you guys rest.”

“Director Xia, you’re the most hardworking boss I’ve ever seen. It’s no wonder that you achieved success at such a young age.” Qing Caiyue placed her coat down before approaching Xia Lei. “Director Xia, you must be tired. How about I give you a massage?”

Xia Lei smiled. “No need for that. I’ll be alright after a cup of tea.”

“Not even a neck massage?” Qing Caiyue looked wronged.

“Alright, just a neck massage, please.” He spent the entire night studying hacker basics. Perhaps a massage was in fact very much needed to relax his tense muscles.

Qing Caiyue came to stand behind Xia Lei, she then started to squeeze his shoulders.

Her motions were gentle, slowly but surely relieving Xia Lei of his aches. As he continued to enjoy the massage, he returned his attention to the screen to focus on its displayed information.

Xia Lei had no idea how much information he had gone through last night. However, he was not satisfied. The material available online was not what he was looking for. Blackhat hacking was considered illegal after all. Now that Long Bing’s professional hackers were coming over with some books and teaching assistance, he must regain his energy, which was why he didn’t decline Qing Caiyue’s massage offer.

Qing Caiyue took a hard look at the information displayed on the screen “Director Xia, are you enriching your computer knowledge?”

“Nah, not really. I’m just taking a look,” answered Xia Lei.

Qing Caiyue’s attention quickly diverted itself from the screen. After all, she was much more interested in the man behind the screen. Her palm on his neck resumed its gentle rolling, she sneakily pressed her torso against Xia Lei’s head.

“Director Xia, have you had breakfast yet? I can make some for you.” Qing Caiyue pressed her cherry lips to his ear. “Tell me, what would you like to eat?”

Tell me, what would you like to eat?

Her voice was soft and there was seduction from the warm moisture her warm cavern emitted. This was not the only trick she had up her sleeve. Her full bosom was pressed against the back of Xia Lei’s head silently. It was soft and round. Xia Lei couldn’t help but smile in his heart. “What a bold sly fox, seducing her boss out in the open like this.” But what came out of his mouth was something entirely different. “No thank you. I already had a box of biscuits and some chocolate before you came, so I’m not hungry.”

That didn’t sound like a direct refusal, which fuelled Qing Caiyue’s courage. Her hands started to move from his neck onto his shoulder. Despite that, she wasn’t giving up on the neck massage but simply exchanged her hands for two boneless mass. Due to its overflowing size, they had engulfed his entire neck.

Xia Lei slightly raised a brow. It wasn’t because he was offended by the gesture, it was because he was starting to feel uncomfortable. What male could resist the bold seductions of a woman? He was just a normal guy.

“Director Xia, how about we go into the relaxation room so I can massage you properly?” Qing Caiyue’s voice was unbearably sweet.

As Xia Lei opened his mouth to answer, a young man appeared at the door. He looked like he was in his twenties, blessed with a firm physique and had an armful of books plus a laptop bag on his back.

Long Bing’s man was here.

Qing Caiyue frantically straightened herself, buttoning her opened collar in a flurry. “Who are you? Who are you looking for?”

The man looked a little sheepish. “I’m Luo Hui, I work under Miss Long Bing. She instructed me to come here.”

“Please have a seat, Mister Luo,” offered Xia Lei courteously. He turned to instruct Qing Caiyue. “Caiyue, please make two cups of tea.”

“Got it, right away.” Qing Caiyue left to make tea.

Xia Lei’s gaze fell on Qing Caiyue’s retreating behind. The visible wet splotch had him shake his head with a wry smile.

“Director Xia, Miss Long Bing had already explained the situation to me.” Luo Hui dove into his job as soon as he took a seat. “I’ve set a one-month learning plan for you. If you put effort into it, I’m sure mastering the basics will not be a problem for you.”

Xia Lei grinned. “Does that mean that you’ve taken a month off?”

“Yeah, Miss Long Bing had already approved my leave,” answered Luo Hui.

“No need for that. I can learn everything in a day,” replied Xia Lei.

“Huh?” Luo Hui was taken aback. “Director Xia, how are you going to master everything in a day?” Truthfully, the younger man had even felt that his one-month plan was still not sufficient to cover the basics. He was surprised Xia Lei had claimed that he could master it all in twenty-four hours. Based on his experience, that would be close to impossible!

Qing Caiyue finally returned with two cups of tea. “Mister Luo, Director Xia, please enjoy your drinks.”

Xia Lei said, “Caiyue, you may leave. What is the progress on the request I gave you?”

Qing Caiyue replied, “I’ve already contacted Madam Wu. She agreed as soon as I mentioned that the Thunder Horse Organization was looking to recruit people. She would be sending over some people for interviews today.” She flashed the man a smile. “I’ve already said this earlier. It will not be difficult for the Thunder Horse Organization to recruit new blood. Anyone looking to switch companies quickly scrambled to take their leaves to attend.”

Xia Lei nodded and said, “Alright, please oversee the interviews for me. Try to be as selective as possible.”

“Alright, got it. I’ll head over now.” Qing Caiyue left just like that.

Truthfully, other than the fact that she was a little handsy with her boss, her work capabilities were great. She was a competent employee who helped shoulder some of Xia Lei’s administrative burden.

After she had left, Luo Hui spoke up, “Director Xia, where shall we start?”

Xia Lei replied, “You can enjoy your tea while I take a look at the books you brought over.”

Luo Hui was a little surprised but nodded nonetheless. He sipped on his tea while he watched Xia Lei flip through the book. Xia Lei was seen scanning through it page by page. He didn’t appear to stay on one page for long as he was searching the book for some hidden secrets. The younger male couldn’t help but get a little irritated. “Is Director Xia messing with me? How is he going to learn everything in a day like that?”

However, what was even more irritating for Luo Hui was that he had continued to sit there for another hour. Xia Lei was still beside him, flipping through the book like no one’s business. He felt as if Xia Lei was trying to pull a prank on him. The vocabulary he used were professional terms, which shocked Luo Hui a lot. Simply put, Luo Hui just couldn’t understand the man in front of him.

After some time, Xia Lei had finally placed down the very last book out of the armful Luo Hui brought into his office. Millions of words were imprinted from his left eye to his brain. Not a single shred of knowledge was wasted. The entire reading process was as if his brain and left eye had acted like a wormhole for knowledge.

Xia Lei placed the book onto the coffee table. He then faced Luo Hui and said, “I’ve actually read all these books before, but I’d like you to demonstrate it to me.”

Luo Hui’s jaw dropped. “You’ve read all of these before? How is that possible? These are all written and published for the military.”

Xia Lei smiled in response. “I’m the boss of the organization. Any book you can get, I surely can as well.”

“Ah, that’s true. Here, I’ll demonstrate some for you.” Luo Hui took out his laptop. He didn’t need to ask for the wifi password. A few keys in and Luo Hui had already found himself in an interface, he looked at Xia Lei. “Where shall we attack?”

“Let’s start with the Thunder Horse Organization’s security system,” answered Xia Lei.

Luo Hui then started to work, his fingers flying through his keyboard rapidly.

Xia Lei had his full attention on Luo Hui’s manipulation, his mind memorizing every single step and relevant information he saw. Pieces of hacking information he had floated about in his mind, matching real-life application with theories.

In just a few minutes, security footage of the Thunder Horse Military Factory was displayed across the laptop screen. There were live feedbacks of the main gate and garage entrance. However, there wasn’t any footage of the garage’s interior. Its intention was to protect Thunder Horse from system breaches by the western military. Xia Lei wasn’t keen on having his workers spied on as they work while the American military was on the other side of the world chewing on bubblegum.

“Director Xia, you’re a smart man. Though I made it into Thunder Horse Military Factory’s security system, I could barely extract any information,” praised Luo Hui.

”If it wasn’t because my employees needed the internet for their leisure, I wouldn’t have signed up for an internet package.”

“You’re the expert, I’m sure you know my rationale behind the decision. Many westerners are very interested in my technology.” Xia Lei smiled and continued, “Alright, can you demonstrate it to me again? I’d like to aim for something with tighter security.”

“Where would you like to breach?”

“Bureau 101,” Xia Lei said. “I’d like to see what Miss Long Bing keeps in her office desktop.”

“What?! No way! I’m not doing that!” Luo Hui declined with a violent shake of his head.

“Why not? You can blame it on me if everything happens. I can explain this in your stead to Miss Long Bing,” assured Xia Lei.

“But… what about Boss Shi?”

“I’ll go explain it to him too, how’s that?”

“Alright, fine.” Luo Hui responded with a wry smile, then started to dance his fingers on the keyboard.

This time, the manipulation was evidently more complex, which demanded Xia Lei’s utmost attention. He didn’t dare to leave out a single detail. If they could breach Bureau 101’s security system, then that would mean they had managed to invade the world’s tightest cybersecurity space. Mastering this would mean that he could breach the CIA with ease!

Just like last time, Luo Hui focused on his work while Xia Lei was using his brain and eye to learn the process. Luo Hui’s mind was in overdrive which helped Xia Lei manifest actual comprehension and mastery of the skill. With his learning abilities, everything he understood had exceeded that of Luo Hui’s knowledge!

Luo Hui remained blissfully unaware of Xia Lei's powerful memorisation. Every key he entered and every explanation he gave had contributed to the birth of a super hacker. The younger male didn’t know what storm Xia Lei would bring with him into the field of hacking soon!

Time trickled bit by bit. The seed of an ultimate hacker sprouted amidst the fertile soil. It emerged out of the substrate and grew rapidly. This entire process was just like the sped-up footage of a plant’s growth.
