Chapter 128: Cunning Rabbit, Dozens of Burrows

Xu Mo's method of dealing with the Investigation Team is actually very simple.

It is to use surveillance.

He wants to go to the places with the most and densest surveillance.

Mainly to fully utilize surveillance as a "helper".

He plans to hack into all the surveillance around the Yunqi Rose Garden.

Of course, not the destructive kind of hacking.

But to take these surveillance feeds for his own use.

In this way, Xu Mo and his group can know through the surveillance around and inside the Yunqi Rose Garden whether the Investigation Team is approaching the area.

However, Xu Mo doesn't intend to have a few people take turns watching the surveillance.

Because taking turns watching it is a bit stupid.

He plans to write a code program.

Speaking of it, the way this code program works is somewhat similar to the Heaven's Eye, but not exactly the same.

Once the surveillance identifies the four members of the Investigation Team, the code program will trigger an alarm.

Then they can withdraw in advance.

He looked at the co‑pilot Zhou Qiaoqiao.

"You can do Black Surveillance, right?"

"Yes."

"You can code too, right?"

"Yes, what's up?" Zhou Qiaoqiao asked.

"Then that's fine," Xu Mo nodded. "Connect all the surveillance within one kilometer around the Yunqi Rose Garden and inside it, then write a Heaven's Eye‑like identification program."

"Remember to add the Investigation Team's photos into the identification program, set it simply: as long as the Investigation Team is captured by any camera within one kilometer around or inside the Yunqi Rose Garden, the program should issue an alarm to notify us to withdraw early."

Zhou Qiaoqiao swallowed dryly.

She could understand Xu Mo's words.

But… she can't do it!

She can do Black Surveillance, and she can code too.

However, following Xu Mo's instructions, she can't manage.

Write a Heaven's Eye‑like identification program as well?

Does Xu Mo think so highly of her??

After two seconds of silence, Zhou Qiaoqiao shook her head candidly: "…Can't do it."

Xu Mo sighed lightly: "Fine, I'll do it myself later."

Got it, no need to say it.

Still have to do it oneself.

Yang Jingxuan, sitting in the back seat, only now realized.

Good guy, so that's what Xu Mo was planning.

No wonder he dared to live in a house under An Youyi's name!

"I have another question," Li Jiaxin thought for a moment and said, "With that Heaven's Eye‑like program you mentioned, we can indeed leave before the Investigation Team arrives, but staying inside will leave traces. If the Investigation Team discovers our occupancy traces and then lies in wait here, what then? Won't we have nowhere to live?"

At this moment, An Youyi, sitting beside him, spoke slowly.

"You forgot, I have many houses, it's no big deal, we can just move to another one."

Xu Mo continued along her line.

"As long as we erase from the surveillance the segment of us entering the Yunqi Rose Garden, the Investigation Team won't find our hideout; they might not even think we'd hide in a house under An Youyi's name."

"Even if they think of it, it's fine," Xu Mo shrugged. "Even if they suspect, the surveillance is destroyed, they'd have to use a clumsy method, checking each of dozens of houses one by one—how long would that take?"

After a bit of analysis.

Xu Mo's plan had become very clear.

"And as long as the Investigation Team gets within a certain range, the program will alert us so we can leave early. Impressive, Xu Mo!" Zhou Qiaoqiao exclaimed excitedly.

What do you call this? Shoot once and change location.

The key is there are still many places they can go.

Tens of houses are available to live in.

Cunning rabbit, dozens of burrows, hideouts can be swapped at will!

When even surveillance can't trace Xu Mo and his group.

How can the Investigation Team keep track of dozens of places?

After sorting out Xu Mo's thinking.

Li Jiaxin admired Xu Mo even more.

An idol is an idol!

At this moment, all four felt that Xu Mo's method was virtually infallible.

Even a exhausted Investigation Team couldn't find them.

Seeing the four's expressions, they all seemed quite content.

Xu Mo poured cold water on them.

"Don't relax too early; the Investigation Team represents the authorities. What if they recruit an internet prodigy who can hack the identification program I wrote?"

"If that really happens, the Investigation Team might be at the door before we even know."

Hearing this, the four were all stunned.

A few seconds later.

Zhou Qiaoqiao turned her head to look at Xu Mo.

"The Investigation Team borrowed a net prodigy… can they hack the program you wrote?"

To be honest, she was a bit skeptical.

She knew Xu Mo's Hacker Technique.

In fact, Xu Mo was the most skilled hacker she had ever encountered.

He was a big shot who could breach a bank's security system as easily as drinking water and eating.

Could anyone else hack the program Xu Mo wrote?

Xu Mo gave a slight smile.

"What if? We have to consider the worst-case scenario."

Although Xu Mo said it like that.

the four of them could easily notice.

His expression was far too relaxed.

as if he hadn't taken the worst possibility to heart at all.

They guessed he must have some other trump card.

An Youyi was very curious about what other trump cards Xu Mo might have.

She then pressed further: "If the worst actually comes true and we open the door only to find the Investigation Team blocking the entrance, what do we do?"

Xu Mo gave a mysterious smile.

"We'll talk about it later."

In fact, Xu Mo did have a trump card.

But he couldn't tell the four of them now, because revealing it might render it ineffective.

Only in a crisis where the Investigation Team blocks the doorway would be the optimal moment to use that trump card.

To prevent the four from asking further,

Xu Mo changed the subject.

He looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao: "I'll teach you a method. Use the method I teach you to delete the footage of this car appearing in the roadside surveillance. Your previous method wasn't good; replacing the entire surveillance segment would immediately reveal that part was tampered with."

Xu Mo spoke while Zhou Qiaoqiao followed his instructions.

Using the method Xu Mo taught, first, the deletion is thorough and hard to recover.

Second, Xu Mo didn't ask her to delete whole segments of surveillance, only the footage where their car appears.

The surveillance doesn't vanish entirely; it just omits that one car.

Of course, since it's surveillance, there's no need to edit details like in Photoshop.

Doing it roughly enough is sufficient.

Unless the Investigation Team scrutinizes frame by frame, they'll hardly notice the issue.

…

At this moment, the Investigation Team was still driving toward the Welfare Institute.

Han Fei, after regaining his composure, analyzed the situation again.

At present, Xu Mo's most troublesome point was his mastery of the Hacker Technique.

Xu Mo had repeatedly used his Hacker Technique to deceive them and keep them off balance.

The key was that they had no way, because the Investigation Team had no hacker.

Of course, the Investigation Team lacked a hacker also because they initially didn't know Xu Mo was a hacker.

But now…

Since they now know, and have suffered losses many times,

if they don't want to keep being led by Xu Mo's nose, they must call in external help.

Moreover, a hacker versus a hacker isn't an unfair fight.

It's normal for the four of them, who know nothing about the Hacker Technique, to hire a Heike Wa Yuan.

When it comes to a hacking prodigy, Han Fei actually knows one.

Of course, it's a hacker who has already been recruited.

Thinking that, Han Fei pulled out his phone.

He dialed the phone of that already-recruited prodigy hacker…
