After Xia Chuhe and the others left, a group of people secretly peeked out from the mountaintop.

"Sister Xue, what is that farmer doing?"

"Why did she kill the guest? Could it be that she was unhappy with the auction price?"

"Isn't it too dangerous to do business with this kind of person?"

Hu Xue checked the 32 million points in her younger sister's watch: "It's not because of the price."

These are the points the younger sister obtained from Ah Gou by taking advantage of the situation. After collecting the points, she promptly disappeared. The points are real; the customer paid so readily, so the farm owner definitely didn't want the points.

Thinking back on the two transactions with the farmer, where the goods were genuine, of good quality, and at low prices, Hu Xue knew she could almost double the price by reselling them. She wasn't about to let such a good source slip by.

Fortune favors the bold. No smuggler can avoid all risks.

Hu Xue recorded the scene of Xia Chuhe twisting Jin Zhong's neck: "Business still needs to be done. No one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened today!"

...

Xia Chuhe successfully found Xia Bao'er at the address provided by Jin Zhong.

Xia Bao'er's clothes were neat, and her face was rosy; she didn't look like a prisoner at all.

Xia Chuhe glanced at the room where Xia Bao'er was imprisoned, which was blackened by fire.

Xia Bao'er threw herself into Xia Chuhe's arms, looking aggrieved: "I've been chanting 'Open Sesame' for so long."

"Yes, I'm late." Xia Chuhe touched Bao'er's face; there were no tears, she was a strong little girl.

Xia Chuhe gently patted Bao'er's back: "Next time I'll get you a magic lamp. You just need to rub the lamp and I'll come."

Bao'er muttered, "The genie has a big beard, you're better looking than the genie."

...

Before leaving, Xia Chuhe ransacked the house but found nothing of value.

Perhaps it was because he had collected too little that Jin Zhong had not yet handed Bao'er over.

Jin Zhong's efforts had the best result: he turned Bao'er into a missing person, and Xia Chuhe no longer needed to find an excuse to transfer Bao'er to another school.

Xia Chuhe bought a new watch from Five Star Company. The watch has a positioning function, but it requires an identity card to use.

Bao'er doesn't have an ID card yet, so she can't apply for one.

04 coughed lightly: "Fake goods can be made from anything, and sometimes you can even make fakes that aren't so fake."

Xia Chuhe's mind raced; it seemed that all the nameless people were a bit greedy for money...

Xia Chuhe directly asked how much it would cost, and then transferred the money, including the money he had hired and the money he had found on the road.

Upon arriving at the store, 02 fiddled with the watch for a bit and successfully activated the location function.

Xia Chuhe put the watch on Xia Bao'er and said, "Don't take it off. If a bad guy tries to catch you, you have to hide the watch secretly, okay?"

"I know!" Xia Bao'er answered readily.

Xia Chuhe looked at 04: "By the way, I want to talk to you about something."

Faced with Xia Chuhe, a major benefactor, even 04, who had a touch of intellectual pride in his bones, couldn't help but offer the most considerate service: "Please tell me."

"I'd like to hire you as Bao'er's tutor; the price is negotiable."

"No way!" 04 refused outright.

04 Afraid of hurting the child's self-esteem, she quickly tried to make amends: "Baby, you are a good child, I am not a good teacher. I have never been a teacher, and I will hold you back."

"It's okay. Just tell Bao'er what books you usually read. Also, teach her basic calculations and such."

04 still shook his head.

Xia Chuhe looked disappointed: "In that case, I guess I'll have to tell everyone that there are actually only a few people in the 'Nameless' group, and that a bunch of them are just your pseudonyms?"

02: "Shut up—"

04: "How did you know!"

The two spoke in unison, but the difference was that 02 was speaking to 04, while 04 was speaking to Xia Chuhe.

Xia Chuhe smiled and said, "I was just kidding you before, but now I know."

02 He was filled with resentment and pounded his chest in frustration. If Xia Chuhe had truly known so clearly, he would have specified the number of nameless individuals, instead of vaguely referring to "a few people"!

Unfortunately, the mouth is a step slower than the brain!

04 This big mouth, it really slurred away so quickly!

Xia Chuhe tapped his watch: "The forum is very active today, I'll post something..."

"No!" 04 agreed tearfully, "I'll teach you!"

He wasn't unwilling; he genuinely had never been a teacher before and was afraid of corrupting a perfectly good child.

With the heavy weight on his heart lifted after several days, Xia Chuhe felt completely relieved: "Your organization is really great, you have all kinds of talents. How about I hire you long-term? It won't affect your ability to take on other jobs, as long as you prioritize my work."

"Okay~" 02 smiled, revealing two small dimples.

Xia Chuhe lowered his voice: "Do you know that Fetion data can be tampered with?"

02 The smile disappeared: "Not only Fetion, but the data of all official applications can be tampered with."

In other words, all official applications are at risk of information leakage.

Xia Chuhe: "Do you have any way to create an app that can bypass surveillance?"

02 Refusal: "I won't do it!"

She said "I won't do it," not "I can't do it."

Xia Chuhe stared into 02's eyes, but saw no desire in them; her refusal was firm.

Application software is not something Xia Chuhe needs. She nodded and gave Bao'er a few instructions.

Just as she was about to leave the shop, 02 called out to her, "Wait a minute."

02 Her dimples disappeared, and her round face was full of sadness, like a bitter little apple.

“It’s not that it can’t be done, but if this application is used, my friend will die, unless… you have a cure for the genetic defect.”
