Meanwhile, on the other side...

Silver Wolf sat cross-legged in his small room, which was piled with snack wrappers and game console parts.

The floating screen in front of me was densely packed with personnel files from the Taipusi Bureau and surveillance records from the Star Chariot Sea Central Hub.

And the data analysis report she pieced together from various sources.

She was chewing a piece of gum quickly, but her brows were furrowing more and more tightly.

The white-haired man named Yuan Jing was listed in his file as a civil advisor in the Ministry of Justice, but there was nothing further back in his record.

It's as if it appeared out of nowhere.

As for that silver-haired little girl, that's even more outrageous.

Surveillance footage showed her playing the erhu for money on Changle Street, but further investigation revealed nothing.

Moreover, this person also appears to have entered the country illegally.

Both of their past records had clearly been deliberately deleted, and the method was extremely clean.

It was so clean that even a genius hacker like her couldn't find any residual data.

She grew angrier the more she thought about it, and spat the piece of chewed gum, which had already lost its flavor, into the trash can.

He squeezed out two words through gritted teeth:

"Damn it, who are these two? How could they have just appeared out of thin air?"

Silver Wolf's confidence wouldn't allow her to say "cannot find".

Especially since it's rare for that guy Ren to ask her for help, if he just replied directly...

"I couldn't find it, figure it out yourself," does that mean she doesn't want to maintain her reputation as a genius hacker?

She bit her lower lip and reopened the surveillance footage.

I went through all the scenes before and after the white-haired little girl and Yuan Jing appeared on Chang Le Street again.

It was discovered that the social patterns of these two people highly overlapped with one person: Qi Ye, that bastard.

She took a deep breath and thought that since she couldn't find the information directly from the database, she would start with the people involved.

Her fingers flew across the keyboard, and she hacked into Qiye's phone in a very short time.

Then I sent a message.

the other side

Qi Ye and his group had just landed on the island and were heading towards the sealed entrance of Lin Yuan Realm.

As Qi Ye walked in the middle of the group carrying Jing Liu, she suddenly felt her phone vibrate a few times in her pocket.

He took it out and saw that the sender's field was a dynamic avatar composed of numbers and letters.

"Hey, you! Do you even know who Yuan Jing and your white-haired brat are?"

Qi Ye raised an eyebrow as he looked at the message.

Regardless of who this guy is, he calls Jingliu "little brat" the moment he opens his mouth.

While this is indeed the current situation, it's still a shame that the former Sword Master of Luofu was called a brat by a stranger.

He couldn't help but want to laugh.

Instead of replying directly, he typed a line and sent it first:

"Automatic reply in progress, please call again later."

The other party was clearly taken aback by the automated reply, and only sent another message after a long while:

"What do you mean?! I went through so much trouble to hack into your phone, and this is what you reply?"

"Let me tell you, don't try to fool me! I can hack into your phone!"

Qi Ye stared at the message for a long time.

His tone, his temper, and his habit of hacking into other people's phones at the drop of a hat—he's a bit like Silver Wolf.

A smile played on his lips as he slowly typed a line of text on the screen:

"Silver Wolf?"

"Looks like you do have some brains. Since you know, just tell me."

I'll let bygones be bygones regarding your control over my body, the things you eat, and the equipment you remove.

"Dream on! Is this your attitude? No way, you have to pay."

Upon receiving this reply, Silver Wolf nearly chewed her new gum to pieces.

This guy asks for money the moment he opens his mouth.

She angrily typed a line of text:

"I already said I'm not holding it against you for controlling my body to eat random things and randomly download equipment, so can't you just tell me for free?"

"No. One thing at a time; information can't be given away for nothing."

Silver Wolf bit his lip and hesitated for a long time.

In the end, I lost to my own curiosity.

She typed a few words heavily: "How much?"

"One price, five million credits, you can transfer it yourself."

Silver Wolf was taken aback. He hadn't expected that this guy wouldn't make such a big demand or propose any strange additional conditions.

She suspiciously entered five million into the transfer interface, and then suspiciously watched the "transfer successful" message pop up on the screen.

I always felt like there was some kind of trap waiting for me.

When Qi Ye received the notification that the money had been credited to her account, the corners of her mouth curled up even wider.

He calmly typed his reply on the screen:

"You're asking about Yuan Jing, right?"

I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense!

Yuan Jingke is the illegitimate daughter of General Jingyuan.

As for that white-haired little girl, that's my master.

"If you dare call her a brat again, my master will chop you in half with his sword."

Silver Wolf stared at the message for a while, then suddenly felt that the money was well spent.

She immediately replaced the gum in her mouth with a new one.

Fingers flew across the keyboard, and a fiery passion for gossip burned brightly behind the screen:

"Really?! Are you sure? General Jingyuan's illegitimate daughter? Isn't he single?"

How come a bastard daughter suddenly appeared? And what is your identity as a master?

Don't try to fool me, I paid for it.

Qi Ye thought for a moment, and realized that Silver Wolf would ask him about the identities of these two people.

It's probably what Brother Dao wanted, since who else would be associated with these two people besides him?

He thought about how Brother Dao would react if he knew that both of his friends had children, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

So I sent another message:

"You know the former swordsman of Luofu, right?"

My master is her daughter. If you don't believe me, check the photos yourself.

Upon seeing this message, Silver Wolf jumped up from his chair.

She quickly pulled up a screenshot of the white-haired little girl from the surveillance footage.

They also retrieved archival photos of the mirror stream from the database.

That was an old file from the time of the Five Heroes of the Clouds, hundreds of years ago.

The girl in the photo, Jingliu, is silver-haired with a cold expression and a chilling sword intent.

She dragged the two photos together, and the comparison algorithm ran simultaneously, displaying similarity data line by line.

Silver Wolf stared at the comparison results on the screen.

The chewing gum in my mouth almost fell out; it was almost identical to the one I had made from.

She felt that the money she spent was well worth it.

If this information were sold on the black market, the mere fact that General Jingyuan was an illegitimate daughter would be enough to earn ten times the profit.

Not to mention the secret that only she knew—the daughter of the former sword master.

She was calculating the starting price for listing this message on the black market when her phone suddenly vibrated again.

Qi Ye's message popped up, as if she had accurately predicted what wicked thoughts Qi Ye was harboring:

"Don't spread this news around. I'm only telling you this."

If you sell it on the black market, you won't get a discount the next time you ask me for help.
