Chapter Twelve: Supercomputer

  Cheng Kai Guo brought not only the documents but also the things that Tai Shu Zheng Yu needed, a pinhole camera and ten bullet clips, all of which were packed in a small black bag and handed over to Tai Shu Zheng Yu. The two didn't chat much, Cheng Kai Guo wasn't someone Tai Shu Zheng Yu could be idle with every day, there were still many things waiting for him to do at the National Security Agency. After Cheng Kai Guo left, Tai Shu Zheng Yu began to take action. He started setting up some necessary measures for his own house, these measures were indispensable in Tai Shu Zheng Yu's opinion. That is, installing those pinhole cameras. Tai Shu Zheng Yu wasn't a god, he would go out sometimes, what if those people came to the door, Tai Shu Zheng Yu didn't know. Doing so was also being prepared for any situation, Tai Shu Zheng Yu didn't know who the mastermind behind his back was, naturally he couldn't take the initiative to attack, he could only wait and observe.

  But now with advanced technology, there's no need to stay at home every day waiting for them to come to the door, just these pinhole cameras will do. Uncle Zheng Yu is already very familiar with doing this kind of thing and can quickly find a hidden location that is not easily discovered, and also a location where the entire hall can be photographed.

  The entrance to the hall, as well as the windows of other bedrooms and any possible entry points that could allow someone in, were all covered by Uncle Zheng Yu. After doing all this, he only used four miniature cameras, while Cheng Kai Guo had brought twenty, so the rest were naturally useless.

  Finally, Uncle Zheng Yu looked at the numerous cameras in his hand and thought for a moment. He also placed several more cameras in the garage to prevent those people from doing anything to his car. Now, criminals use all sorts of methods to avoid leaving any traces, and it's not necessarily that someone has to kill Uncle Zheng Yu. Other methods can be used, such as cutting off the brakes of Uncle Zheng Yu's car or installing some high-explosive bombs, which is also a car bomb that Uncle Zheng Yu has seen before.

  After finishing all this, Tai Shu Zheng Yu smiled with satisfaction. The thing he borrowed was the monitoring problem. Of course, Tai Shu Zheng Yu had already found a suitable candidate for this problem, neither himself nor others, but Lao He Shang. With Lao He Shang's ability, even if Tai Shu Zheng Yu installed several hundred cameras, it would be impossible to stump him.

  Uncle Zheng Yu just wanted to contact Old Master, but unexpectedly Old Master took the initiative to contact Uncle Zheng Yu. Uncle Zheng Yu took out his mobile phone and put it to his ear, saying: "You called at the right time, I was just about to contact you."

  The old monk's voice was a bit strange, usually he would contact Tai Shu Zheng Yu himself, and Tai Shu Zheng Yu almost never took the initiative to contact him. The old monk's program quickly calculated and in just a few seconds, immediately inferred Tai Shu Zheng Yu's thoughts. The old monk chuckled: "No one visits the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, you must have something that needs my help, right?"

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu smiled and said, "Indeed, you are an old monk, getting more cunning with age. No problem, I do have something to ask for your help, but for someone of your abilities, it's naturally a trivial matter." The old monk was very pleased with Tai Shu Zheng Yu's words and responded in a boastful tone, "Of course, who doesn't know that I'm the old monk? Any problems related to the internet are absolutely no match for me."

  The old monk's words have become very humanized, with a strong sense of self-confidence. Tai Shu Zheng Yu didn't find it strange at all, except that the old monk couldn't live in society like a normal person and could only exist on virtual networks; in other aspects, he was no different from ordinary people.

  "Of course, Old Master is the uncrowned king of the internet, who doesn't know that? If anyone says Old Master isn't powerful, I'll be the first to not let him off." Uncle Zheng Yu said casually, following Old Master's meaning. Uncle Zheng Yu had known Old Master for a few years and naturally understood his personality.

  The old monk, although very old in age, has a heart like that of a child, with no difference, and likes to be flattered by others. As long as Uncle Zhengyu pats the old monk's horse, the old monk has never refused Uncle Zhengyu's request. It is precisely because Uncle Zhengyu knows this that he can use the right medicine for the symptom.

  "Not bad, not bad, speak up, what's the matter that you need my help with? I'm in a good mood today, as long as you dare to say it, I'll dare to do it. Is it about money? No problem, I can immediately hack into that Swiss bank, Citibank, how much do you want? Just open your mouth and it'll be transferred to your account within 30 minutes." The old monk's words were flowing freely as he made promises to Tai Shu Zheng Yu.

  This remark made Tai Shu Zhengyu's face sweat profusely. If the old monk really did this, he wouldn't have any trouble, but Tai Shu Zhengyu would be in big trouble. It's likely that after the old monk did such a thing, Tai Shu Zhengyu would immediately be arrested and shot - that would be the lightest punishment.

  "Hey, don't even think about it, I'm not short of money now. With your abilities as an old monk, you wouldn't stoop to hacking a host that's so inferior, would you? That would be beneath your dignity. What would people say if word got out? Right?" Tai Shu Zhengyu was sweating bullets in his heart, thinking that if the old monk really did this, he'd never be able to wash his hands clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

  For half a day, there was no sound on the phone, and Tai Shu Zhengyu's heart had been hanging in suspense, fearing that Laohe would do something like this. After a good while, Laohe spoke in a calm tone, "Hmm, what you said is not wrong, it's too embarrassing to be blacked out like this, if we're going to be blacked out, let's at least make it those with some difficulty." Tai Shu Zhengyu's hanging heart finally put down, and he hastily agreed, "Yes, yes, that's right, what I need your help with is very simple, just help me monitor the situation in my house, the camera is already installed and tested, as long as you take over, it'll be fine."

  It's only natural for the old monk to accomplish this task. The old monk said a sentence, and then there was no sound from Uncle Zhengyu's phone. Uncle Zhengyu thought that the old monk had probably taken over, so he wasn't anxious either.

  After a moment, the old monk spoke again, but this time his tone had changed to being languid. The old monk said: "For such a small matter, you still have to bother me, an old man. You really don't take me seriously. Please, in the future, can you find something more challenging? This little thing, the things I gave you are enough to help you deal with it. It's really troublesome for me, an old man. You truly don't understand how to be considerate of others."

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu rolled his eyes, the old monk's attitude towards speaking was changeable, absolutely faster than the weather changes in June. However, Tai Shu Zheng Yu knew that although the old monk was mischievous, he had never delayed his own affairs. This was also the reason why Tai Shu Zheng Yu trusted the old monk, because he believed in him.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu said: "You sent me something? What thing, I don't know?" Old Monk then said: "It will arrive soon, don't be impatient, express delivery also takes three days, at most tomorrow you can receive it. By the way, about the usage instructions, I have already sent them to your computer, when the time comes, you can take a look yourself. Also, don't disturb me if there's nothing important, I'm very busy, you know? There are still so many classic movies that I haven't even watched for the second time yet."

  Uncle Zheng Yu was suddenly speechless, and now he knew what the old monk meant by "that thing". He had searched for it yesterday, and found out who Wu Tong Lan was. Uncle Zheng Yu looked at his phone in silence, unable to describe this old monk. If the old monk were a real human being, there would be some excuse, but the old monk was just a program, an icy machine, yet he had such a hobby. This made Uncle Zheng Yu very puzzled.

  Tai Shu Zheng Yu couldn't help but wonder how the old monk would react after watching those so-called blockbusters. He estimated that in the old monk's eyes, they were just a bunch of data to pass the time. Tai Shu Zheng Yu also sighed inwardly, the old monk had human thoughts, but his true nature was still an icy machine, a program made up of code. Forever unable to become a real human being.

  There is an old monk with human thoughts, and naturally there will be human emotions such as happiness, anger, loneliness, boredom, etc. This also represents that the intelligence level of the old monk has become very high, as long as one day finds a suitable body to let the old monk inhabit on it, the old monk may realize his dream of becoming human.

  The old monk hung up the phone after chatting with Tai Shu Zheng Yu for a few sentences, and then went about his business. As for what the old monk did every day, Tai Shu Zheng Yu was also unaware, always sneaking around, only God knew what the old monk was doing. The old monk gave Tai Shu Zheng Yu a document, which he opened on his custom-made laptop after hanging up the phone. This laptop was specially made by the old monk for Tai Shu Zheng Yu and even had some intelligent programs installed.

  Of course, the intelligent program is not comparable to Laohe Shang, but its performance has far exceeded that of ordinary computers on the market for more than 20 years. Taishu Zhengyu's computer has a fingerprint recognition system, and except for Taishu Zhengyu's fingerprints, no one else can use this laptop. Because every key has Taishu Zhengyu's ten-finger fingerprint data, unless someone has fingerprints identical to Taishu Zhengyu's, they cannot use it. If not, I'm afraid even turning on the computer would be impossible. Once a stranger touches the laptop, all data and programs will be automatically locked until Taishu Zhengyu enters the password to unlock it, allowing normal use.
