Chapter 1702
"Did you manage to find something? Whose signature is that?" Ryder asked Gary.
However, Gary did not know how to explain this to his brother at that time.
'If he learns that Nicole is Lucifer, he'll probably fall into despair. It's hard enough to rescue his laptop as it is...' he thought.
'Nothing. Good luck, Ryder." Gary coyly patted Ryder on the back of his shoulder.
"What do you mean?" Ryder asked, as he seemed to have sensed something.
Without the courage to elaborate further, Gary could only say, ‘"1'11 head off first and study about that virus of yours."
Seeing that Gary had fled, Ryder's instincts informed him that something was not right. When he saw the pop-ups that kept appearing on his laptop screen, his brain gave way, and he hurriedly left the school.
He did not believe that he would lose to a girl in high school.
When Preston and Edwin saw that the two brothers had left, they could not help but to sigh. "It seems that Ryder has collided into a steel wall this time."
"Yeah, if he knew Nicole is Lucifer, he'll definitely despair..."
Just through their imagination alone, they could already imagine how Ryder's expression would look like, and they broke into a laughing fit.
The incident of Nicole snagging the limelight at the lecture hall then went viral in the school forum right after class.
No one had thought that she would reveal her fangs long before the computer competition had even started after such a grand showing in the Mathematics Olympiad. And for her to give Ryder such a difficult problem to solve was something no one in school would dare to do.
Yet, Ryder had been snared, and they heard that he had hurried home after he was done with his duties as an assistant. It was said that his laptop contained many important documents within it.
At that time, Bradley was still hyping up what Nicole had done in the lecture hall.
"Did you know that Nicole only spent a minute to crack the code Ryder had given us for practice? Even Gary needed ten odd minutes to do so!"
"Woah! Nicole's amazing!"
Gary was a person who would rarely admit to his weakness, and yet, he had to say, "A few days ago, I suppose."
When the recording of the two girls throwing the flower pot appeared, he had already guessed that Nicole was Lucifer.
And today, she had proven herself to be even more skillful than Ryder.
His brother's achievements and prowess were already rather well-known in the Hunters' web, and there were very few that could surpass him.
But for Nicole to be leagues beyond me in terms of skill... means she's Lucifer for sure.'
Thinking about it, his idol was just sitting right beside him, and there he was, acting like a fool, thinking that Nicole was nothing but a poor student.
It was only then that he realized that she was an absolute genius. Furthermore, she was also the idol he had always wanted to meet.
‘This is so exciting!'
