Chapter: 739
His expression changed and he began replying to the questions.
“Someone from our country contacted me. I'm sending you her IP address. As for Nexa Tech, someone hired me to break through their firewall and steal some data," Star typed.
"Are you telling the truth?" Moon asked.
Seeing the pointed question, Star rushed to reply.
"Yes. I'm not lying. I have chat records. Look, the person who hired me offered a hefty amount. I suspected that they wouldn't be able to afford it, so I deliberately tracked them. The IP address is here,"
Star typed and sent two screenshots.
He was truly terrified. After all, Moon's hacker skills were way better than his. He couldn't even repel an attack and would definitely be the only one to sustain losses.
After receiving two specific IP addresses, Norah was in no mood to continue chatting with Star.
She discovered that one of the IP addresses was located at Derek's villa. Sure enough, the Carter family was behind it. Either Madeline or Kathy were involved. It occurred to Norah that it could also be Derek. Derek was capable of doing anything for money.
This result didn't surprise Norah.
She began tracking the other IP address and discovered that it was hidden behind a firewall. After doing some peripheral digging, she found out that it was the Otland army's LAN.
It was intriguing that the military hired hackers to steal confidential data from Nexa Tech. Norah found it incredulous.
Seeing that the questions had stopped coming, Star heaved a sigh of relief. Since he had divulged everything he knew, he hoped Moon would spare him.
However, when he returned to the forum's home page, he saw that his real name was mentioned on the page. The number of comments had visibly increased now.
Panic overwhelmed him. Did Moon reveal his information?
As this thought crossed his mind, he clicked on the information and saw that only his name was mentioned.
"Just a small punishment," Moon posted.
Fortunately, only his name had been revealed. Several thousand people probably shared the same name as him. It appeared that Moon had spared him.
The Otland army's LAN was so huge that it was pointless for Norah to hack into it now. She just watched the excitement Star's name had created in the hacker forum.
She glanced at the time and realized that she had spent over half an hour on the forum.
Her original plan was to log into the forum to have a quick look and then probe into the person who spread the rumors, but Star had delayed her.
She recalled that Sean had called her a few minutes back. She saw the information he had sent across.
She was trying to find the person who spread the rumor in the Internet cafe. Even if she had to investigate each person individually, she would find him.
However, Sean had already uncovered all the details. She was shocked by the Scott family's powerful information network.
