    Shen Jie Yun nodded his head, his tone serious. “Don’t worry, we won’t destroy a single thing. We’ll just examine theputer. If there is no problem, we will return it in the same state.”


    “That’s good.” Lin Fan was less worried now. As long as theputer wasn’t destroyed, it wasn’t a problem.


    The people of the Inte Safety Department started getting busy.


    “Master Lin, let’s go,” Liu Xiao Tian said.


    Lin Fan nodded his head, before looking towards the rest of the shop owners, waving them goodbye. “Guys, I’ll make a move first. See you guys in a while.”


    “Be safe!” the shop owners replied, unwilling to let him go.


    “If you need anything, tell us!”


    “They’re taking away my Little Boss. I am lost.”


    “Come back quickly, will you?”


    The journalists all rushed over after hearing wind of what had happened, but they were cordoned off by the police.


    “What is going on?”


    “Not sure. Sir, could you let us in to take a look? As journalists, we have the right to know the truth about what happened.”


    “D*mn, such a big news story and they don’t let us cover it. They must be joking.”


    “What happened to Master Lin? He’s being taken away.”


    “Have you been hiding under a rock? Master Lin caused such a big situation to happen. If he wasn’t taken away, it would be a great injustice.”


    “Weibo is now filled with Master Lin’s doings. All I can say was that he did a d*mn good job, but his tactics were rather violent and questionable.”


    “If this happened out of the country, Master Lin would definitely still be okay. What a shame...”


    “Shame my a*s. He’s only being taken away. We still don’t know what is going to happen to him.”


    “That’s true.”


    The journalists went around in pairs, discussing what had happened. Although they couldn’t capture anything of value, they still stuck around. The shop owners were a gold mine of information.


    “Sir, how do you do? Can we ask what happened to Master Lin?”


    Elder Zhang was moody. “They took away Little Boss, and we really can’t bear to see that happen.”


    “What are your views on this?” the journalists continued asking.


    “What other views can I have? Little Boss is a good man. It isn’t right that he was taken away. If I was younger, I would have gone out to save him.”


    ...


    In the police car.


    “Chief Liu, where will we be going?” Lin Fan asked, his face calm.


    “To our police station. Don’t worry, although you caused quite a huge situation, Bureau Chief and I will do all we can to protect you. Keeping you in our station would be a safer option,” Liu Xiao Tian smiled, reassuring Lin Fan.


    “Sure, I’ll follow whatever you say. I’ll make a phone call first.” Lin Fan whipped out his phone and made a call to his supporter.


    The phone was ringing.


    “Elder Lin, how did everything go?” Zheng Zhong Shan asked.


    “Elder Zheng, I’m headed to the local police station now. This thing escted quite a lot, so I bettery low for awhile.”


    “How big can it get? The three golden rules that I told you, you didn’t break any of them, did you?” Elder Zheng asked.


    “I definitely didn’t. How can you not trust me?”


    “That’s good, how big can it get, really? Who’s the one in charge of your case? Can you pass the phone to him? I’ve got a few words to say.” Elder Zheng asked.


    “I’m not sure who’s the one in charge of me yet, but the guys from the Inte Safety Department came down. I’m thinking of staying about a month in jail, but that’s what I’m thinking. No matter what, me hacking into the bank and police servers today is definitely illegal.”


    “Breaking thew is breaking thew, but sometimes you also have to look at the situation? Why do you have to be in jail for a month? Come let me arrange some things for you,” Elder Zheng said.


    “Don’t, please don’t. This one month in jail is of my own request. If you ask around, you’ll probably know the reason why. I won’t say much for now,” Lin Fan said.


    After Lin Fan up the phone, Liu Xiao Tian turned to ask Lin Fan, “Who did you call?”


    “Zheng Zhong Shan, an old general,” Lin Fan replied casually.


    “Zheng Zhong Shan?” Liu Xiao Tian pondered for a moment, realising that the name sounded really familiar, but he thought that something wasn’t right. At that instant, he looked at Lin Fan, astonished. “Did you say Zheng Zhong Shan?”


    “Yep,” Lin Fan nodded.


    “Damn...” Liu Xiao Tian was stunned, looking at Lin Fan in unbelief. That person was a legend. Unthinkable, simply unthinkable.


    At night.


    The Inte Safety Department met at the same time, same ce.


    Shen Jie Yun’s face was stern, as his gaze fixated on theputer. The first order of business was to get the password to theputer.


    “Has the password cracking specialist arrived yet?”


    “He’ll be here soon.” The atmosphere was tense.


    This case was more high-staked and importantpared to anything they had ever done. Normally with their level of skill, cracking the password to anyputer wouldn’t have been an issue. But now, the issue was who theputer belonged to.


    It belonged to the Computer Guru!


    Was it that easy to crack the password to theputer which belonged to the Computer Guru? No one dared to handle hisputer causally. All they could do was to wait for the password cracking specialist to arrive. After all, those guys were specialists in that field. Although the guys from the Inte Safety Department were all-rounders and knew a little about password cracking, it was better to leave this to the professionals who had been doing it for years.


    “The specialist is here.”


    At this moment, a middle-aged man came over, his hand holding on to a briefcase.


    “Leader Shen, what’s the situation?” the specialist asked.


    Shen Jie Yun pointed at theputer in front of him. “Elder He, you better be careful with this one. Thisputer hacked into every single national bank server today. Now with the password to thisputer, we thought we better left this job to you.”


    Elder He’s face became even more serious. He had heard of the legendary hacker online, and that his skills were beyond any humanprehension, and no one couldpare.


    “Let me try.” Elder He had cracked countless passwords in the past, but at this moment, he had his doubts. “I can imagine this hacker’s password to be hard to crack. One wrong move and the whole hard drive would be wiped.”


    “Are you talking about the case that happened five years ago?” Shen Jie Yun asked.


    “Yep, it was the number one hacker in the nation. Hisputer was taken in by us. His password was twenty-one digits and was extremelyplex. Even if we had managed to break it, it would have taken weeks, even months. And the skills of the hackers now are way better than before, and I have no idea how many digits this password is.”


    “Boss, can we just call that guy and ask him for his password? We don’t have to crack it if we just get it from him.”


    “Oh yeah, all we have to do is just ask. Why didn’t I think about that before?” Shen Jie Yun realised, looking stunned.


    “No need. This is a rare opportunity, to be able to break into a hacker’sputer. How about we try first? What do you guys think?”


    No one said anything. Like Elder He, they all wanted to pit their abilities against this Computer Guru.


    Especially Elder He. Ever since he was young, he always had an interest in mathematical puzzles, and now that he had learnt cryptography, he had an unreserved interest in cracking codes.


    With the Computer Guru’sputer right in front of him, he wouldn’t feel contented until he managed to crack his password.


    “Let us begin.” Elder He opened his briefcase, taking out his gadgets. He opened theputer case and installed his own hardware.


    After working for half an hour, he finally got everything ready.


    Elder He looked at theputer, excited. “Alright, everything is set up, let the hardware do its job. What do you guys want to drink?”


    “Juice!”


    “I want...”


    Beep beep!


    Password cracking sess!


    At that instant, everyone gasped in unison.


    Everyone was stunned, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.


    Elder He looked astonished. “How is that possible?”


    “It can’t be, that was too quick.”


    “Elder He, could there be an error?” Shen Jie Yun asked.


    In everyone’s eyes, thisputer belonged to the Computer Guru. How was it possible that the password had been cracked almost instantaneously?


    “The password is as follows.”


    “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6”


    At this moment, the crowd looked on in silence.


    Everyone looked at each other in dismay.


    “What? The password is just these six digits?”


    “123456. Isn’t that a password that a child would set?”


    “Leader Shen, is this the Computer Guru that you speak of? His password is only 6 digits. Anyone with basic knowledge of cracking passwords would be able to break it. Even if they didn’t know it, they probably could have guessed it. I rushed all the way here from the Capital City just to crack this 123456?”


    Shen Jie Yun was in a daze. He looked like he was about to cry. “Elder He, I didn’t know... ”


    “D*mn it...” Elder He was speechless.
