Chapter 99 Hacker Technology
After hearing it, Brian was silent first. He couldn't draw a conclusion casually without any evidence. He couldn't let something without evidence affect the overall situation.
However, Brian still doubted that Penny had done all these. He just didn't expect that Penny would do it in such a cautious way.
"Don't waste time on these people anymore. Go to investigate Penny."
Brian decided to do it in a different way. In this way, however cautious she was, he could find out some clues.
"Yes, Mr. Bennet."
Albert received the order.
"What about the investigation about Winnie?"
Brian asked again.
"I went to the school they graduated from. All her classmates and teachers had a good impression of Winnie. As for Mrs. Bennet, they gave neither positive nor negative comments. In their memory, Winnie had been protecting Mrs. Bennet. Moreover, Winnie had given Mrs. Bennet the opportunity to receive a government-sponsored oversea education."
"I know what you just said. Albert, you didn't work efficiently recently."
Brian was unsatisfied with the result of his investigation because he knew all that things. He just felt surer after Albert mentioned.
"Mr. Bennet, it's not that I don't work efficiently. Recently, there're too many things to do. I'm also responsible for the acquisition of MT. I can't finish all the work well by myself."
Albert said helplessly. After Winnie came, there were suddenly a lot of extra things. And he had to do all of them all by himself. He really was about to wear himself out.
Brian thought for a while and then said.
"Transfer Calvin and Morgan back."
Brian also realized that there were too few employees he trusted around him. He minded what Klara had done this time and couldn't trust her completely in the future. Therefore, he could only transfer his other two right-hand men back.
"I'll go to the Personnel Department and ask them to make arrangements soon."
Albert felt much relaxed now. When his two colleagues were transferred back, they would share the work with him.
"Albert, don't let Klara know important things in the future."
Brian reminded.
In the past, both he and Albert trusted Klara, but they couldn't trust her anymore now. She was under the control of jealousy and sometimes couldn't tell right from wrong. It was easy to use her. "Yes, Mr. Bennet."
Although Albert didn't know what had happened, he believed that Brian must have reasons to give such an order.
"Well, continue the previous topic. What else did you find out?"
Brian continued to ask.
"Winnie had a good relationship with girls, but she was indifferent to boys. It wasn't because she was arrogant. The reason was that Winnie didn't want to play with men's emotions and therefore tried to disappoint her many admirers who she didn't like. Therefore, she had no boyfriend when she was in college."
Albert paused for a while and then went on.
"Mrs. Bennet says that Winnie is a liar, but she is not. Her classmates and teachers all said that she was from a rich family. There is no need for her to cheat other people."
From the very beginning, Albert didn't believe that Winnie was a liar. Now, it was finally proved that she wasn't a liar. He was very happy.
"She is from a rich family? What do her parents do?"
Brian asked casually. He was in a better mood because Winnie didn't have a boyfriend when she was in college.
"I haven't found that out, but I know that her parents had passed away."
Albert felt helpless again. He worked efficiently, but he had to delay when he had to pay attention to everything.
"Continue the investigation and find out everything about Winnie."
Brian ordered seriously.
Although Winnie wasn't a liar when she was in college, it couldn't prove that she didn't cheat other people when she was studying abroad. After all, Penny wasn't the only one who said that Winnie was a liar. Leo liked Winnie so much, but he also once said that Winnie was a liar.
Therefore, Brian wanted to find out everything about Winnie and proved that Penny had told lies. Only in this way could he feel comfortable.
After he arrived home from work in the evening, Winnie had already prepared dinner as usual. They four had dinner happily.
After dinner, they four sat on the sofa together and watched TV. At this moment, Winnie stood up and came close to Brian.
"Come with me."
After saying a few words to kids, Winnie took Brian to her studio, turned on the computer and showed that e-mail to Brian.
"What does it mean?"
Brian asked in a deep voice.
"Perhaps the sender meant it literally? I showed it to Klara and asked her about it today."
Winnie observed his expression carefully, finding that he had no special reaction and that he was just too calm.
"What did she say?"
Brian asked in a colder voice.
"She said that it was a prank, but I did saw her rummaging through my bag."
Winnie repeated what Klara had said.
"You think too much."
Before Winnie told him her doubts, Brian denied them directly. He denied her doubts so fast that Winnie felt uncomfortable.
"Perhaps I'm just like the knave who thinks of others in terms of his own desires. It seems that you know Klara well and trust her very much."
Winnie felt a sense of loss and said. She wanted Brian to analyze it for her, so she told him this thing. However, she forgot that Brian had a very special feeling for Klara and that it was impossible for him to doubt Klara.
Brian was speechless and didn't know what to say next. He didn't believe Klara, but he didn't want them to have a poorer relationship because of it.
"Work hard. Don't let you work efficiency be affected by someone's prank."
Brian could only talk like this. If Winnie continued to look into it, it wouldn't be so easy for this matter to be over.
"No, I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and I have to find out the fact."
Winnie said stubbornly. Since Brian trusted Klara so much, she must find out the face and see if Klara was worth Brian's trust.
After saying that, Winnie sat down in front of the computer and began to operate it.
"How are you going to look into it?"
Brian asked in doubt.
"I can trace the source of this e-mail. If it doesn't work, I'll use hacker technology. Anyway, I can find the sender." Winnie said confidently.
"Right, I should ask Luke and Megan to come over. I can take this opportunity to teach them the hacker technology." "You know hacker technology, too?"
There was a surprised expression in Brian's deep eyes.
"Of course. My job is to develop computer software. If I don't even have such skills, I'll be laughed at."
After saying that, Winnie opened the door and asked Luke and Megan to come over. Then, she explained while operating.
Winnie was really good at hacking. In less than 20 minutes, she locked the IP address of the sender.
Winnie didn't know where the computer with this IP address was, but she knew that it was somewhere in the rich area where poor people couldn't live at all. "Luke, do you understand?"
Instead of asking Brian to tell her the address, she asked Luke if he understood it.
"Yes, I can do this, too."
Luke answered with certainty. He was as confident as Winnie.
"Well, I'll exit this page now and you'll operate the computer. Let's see if you can find this address."
Winnie was not in a hurry to find out the sender. There weren't many such opportunities. Therefore, in her opinion, it was more important to teach kids.
Winnie stood up and let Luke sit down. Then, Luke began to operate the computer. With his super memory and his love for computers, he began to hack for the first time. Winnie stood there, watched, and gradually smiled with satisfaction.
However, Brian was sullen and wore a dark face from the beginning to the end, but he still looked surprised.
The reason why he wore a dark face was that he recognized the IP address. The reason why he was surprised was that Luke could understand hacker technology Winnie taught him.
In the past, he seldom paid attention to Luke. He even deliberately alienated Luke. Therefore, he didn't know that Luke had this talent. Winnie found his talent. It seemed that Luke had changed a lot when he lived with Winnie.
Luke didn't disappoint people present and found the IP address again in the same amount of time as Winnie, making Winnie very happy.
"Good job, Luke! You're the smartest kid!"
Winnie couldn't help praising him, bent down and kissed Luke on his forehead.
"Thank you, auntie."
Luke smiled brightly. He had not smiled like this for a long time.
"Daddy, am I smart?"
Luke turned his head and asked Brian with expectations in his bright eyes.
"Hmm."
Brian indifferently answered him with just a word, which made his expectations disappear instantly. His smile also disappeared with displeasure in his eyes.
He got to know how to operate it after watching it only once. Many kids couldn't do that. Shouldn't his daddy be proud of him? Why did he give him such a perfunctory answer?
It was probably because his daddy still didn't like him and therefore didn't care about his little achievement.
Winnie saw both Brian's and Luke's expressions. It made her heart ache to see the frustration in Luke's eyes.
"Good job, Luke! Auntie is proud of you! What about going to the living room with Megan and having fun with her there? I still have to work for a while."
Winnie hurriedly let the kids leave. The only way to prevent Luke from being affected by Brian emotionally was to distract him.
After the kids left, Winnie somewhat couldn't restrain her anger. She couldn't figure out why Brian treated Luke coldly.
She wanted to ask Brian, but she knew that he wouldn't answer. Therefore, Winnie could only refrain herself from asking for the time being.
"Can you tell me where the computer is? You should know more about this rich area than I do."
Winnie decided to focus on the current problem. She directly pointed out the key point so that Brian couldn't be partial to anyone.
"It's in my home."
Brian didn't hide it from her. He was unable hide it from her. When Winnie said such words, she must have known the fact. If he continued to try to hide it from Winnie, she would definitely became stubborn again.
"Oh...It's in your home? Then, it must be Penny who sent me this e-mail. She must have worked with Klara to steal my mobile phone. That's to say, I didn't t think too much."
Winnie had long anticipated that it had something to do with Penny. She said these words just because she wanted to see how Brian would react.
"Why did they try to steal your mobile phone?"
Brian couldn't explain. If he explained, he would contradict himself. After all, it had something to do with Klara.
"You should ask them why they wanted to steal my mobile. How is it possible that I know it? The reason why you asked me this question is that you think I must have done something wrong. So... Forget it. I'll stop here. It's meaningless to tell who is right and who is wrong. It's just a mobile phone. After I lost the old one, I can get a new one."
Winnie knew that Brian would definitely be partial to them and that she was just a scapegoat. No matter when, she would be the one who bore the responsibility in the end as long as she was involved. "The guy who robbed you of your mobile phone has been caught. It had nothing to do with Penny. It's just a coincidence."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
