Although the current situation upset her.
She felt powerless and frustrated for being used.
But, no matter what, they shared the same goal. It was still undeterminable who was using whom.
She soothed herself by realigning her thoughts.
...
For the next five days.
Life was relatively smooth and tranquil.
But on the sixth day, the Wickam Group was again in turmoil.
The entire IT department was once again plagued with terror!
They immediately alerted their bosses, and Thomas promptly informed Gareth.
Gareth looked cold and solemn.
However, this time, it seemed like the hacker had failed to breach their security system.
Everyone in the IT department was anxious. But they still gathered in a place without CCTV, away from Gareth, and stealthily discussed among themselves.
"My hunch is telling me something has gone wrong." A chubby employee scratched his ear and looked around before whispering.
His skinny, short-haired colleague looked at him and asked, "What has gone wrong?"
The chubby colleague straightened his black tie and adjusted his cuffs before speaking with a frown, "Last time, the hacker was able to crack our security system easily. But this time, it was slapdash. It gave up very quickly."
The thin colleague was flabbergasted, "How is that possible? Can't you see that it's still trying to breach the system? Mr. Wickam seems to be writing new code right now!"
The chubby colleague shook his head and tidied his unkempt long hair. He feigned confusion, "Well, I feel Elisa is linked to this."
The thin colleague stopped his handwashing motion and looked at the chubby colleague, "What does this have to do with Elisa?"
The chubby colleague looked around before whispering to him, "You've seen how the hacker is doing this time. I think it must be Elisa. She deliberately made the process seem like a toil so we would stop suspecting her."
The thin colleague looked bewildered.
The chubby colleague spoke again, "Actually, the program was written by Elisa and Mr. Wickam. Elisa only knows half of the program, but it wouldn't be difficult for her even if it were combined with Mr. Wickam's part. Elisa is a top-notch hacker, but because she wants to stave off suspicion, she deliberately made it look as if an impossible task!"
"This...?" The skinny colleague hesitated for a moment. In fact, he found this round's infiltration attempt bizarre too.
But it was only perceptible if one studied closely.
The skinny colleague patted his shoulder, "Let's not overthink for now. We don't call the shot for what's happening. I only discussed this with you because I was too carried away by the unusual activity. Whatever we discuss here stays here."
As the chubby guy spoke, he glanced at the skinny guy next to him. He knew the skinny guy was a blabbermouth. He had terrible records of failing to keep a secret.
The chubby guy only said that to dispel the skinny guy's suspicion towards him.
The skinny guy nodded and promised, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"
The chubby guy's eyes flickered slyly, but he pretended to be naive and nodded.
"Come on. Let's get back to grind and defend our turf."
Eventually, the two of them went back to work together.
But...
