    Chapter 903 Unsolved Mysteries


    Carlos was trying to mollify his wife when Evelyn called. Debbie was still mad at him for what had


    happened at dinner. He said into the phone, "What''s going on?"


    "I don''t know. A hacker got into the documents for the bid of the Thundercloud project. How he busted


    the encryption I have no idea..." Evelyn said in a worried voice.


    "How could a hacker invade yourputer so easily? Did you go to any dodgy sites? Anyone else use


    it?"


    Evelyn hesitated for a while. No one had ever touched herptop except Sheffield, but she couldn''t tell


    Carlos that. So she lied, "No...I''m serious, Dad. I have no idea how a hacker could get in."


    "Don''t worry. I''ll figure something out. Go to thepany early tomorrow and arrange a meeting to


    work on salvaging this."


    "Okay, Dad."


    As soon as he got home, Sheffield took out hisptop. He had installed a backdoor in Evelyn''s own


    He had also installed a security system on Evelyn''sptop earlier that evening. It was wless, no


    bugs, but no matter how perfect the system was, there was always a weak point. Soon, he did it,


    finding his way into herputer easily, without using his backdoor. He got in with some fake login


    credentials, and herputery bare and open. Encrypted documents disyed normally, like the


    AES wasn''t even there.


    Then he clicked on the folder of design drawings in herputer. All the artwork was by a man named


    "Mister T."


    Then he started to look for the hacker. Throughout the night, he used hiswork monitors and packet


    sniffers to find the guy.


    The next afternoon, while Evelyn and the ZL Group''s senior execs were racking their brains trying to


    find a solution, a hacker suddenly turned himself in. He admitted that someone had hired him to hack


    into Evelyn''sputer and steal their design drawings. He had even sold the information to ZL Group''s


    Adding to Evelyn''s surprise, the weapon designer with the code name "Mister T" actively contacted


    several media outlets. He told the reporters he had applied for the copyrights of all the weapon design


    drawings recently, and he sold the rights to ZL Group. But he didn''t expect the weapon designs to be


    stolen. He also imed that all the weapon design drawings of the game developed by ZL Group were


    designed by him alone, and that he could release proof whenever necessary. In the end, Mister T


    hoped that nothing more woulde of this. He didn''t need legal entanglements.


    This worried Evelyn even more. Had someone forced these guys to do this? And who was her


    unknown benefactor?


    In order to find out the truth, she went to meet the hacker in person, but it was useless. The man only


    said it was his conscience that led him to confess. He wasn''t threatened by anyone.


    Evelyn felt frustrated after her useless visit.


    She wondered who the mysterious Mister T actually was. And why did the hacker turn himself in?


    These two questions became unsolved mysteries in her heart.

    At the CEO''s office in ZL Group


    Evelyn sat opposite Carlos and asked, "Dad, don''t you think it''s too easy?"


    Carlos nodded, "Yeah. I talked to the IT department. The hacker that confessed is quite famous online.


    Only one person had the skills to track him down—Star Anise."


    The mere mention of the name made Carlos furious. The guy had lost him a billion dors.


    ''Star Anise?'' Evelyn pondered. "Dad, it seems that someone named Star Anise is helping us out. You


    know him?"


    Carlos snorted, "I don''t know him personally. But he screwed me out of a billion dors. Maybe he feels


    guilty after having defrauded me out of that much."


    Evelyn sighed. "Dad, so what about the so-called ''Mister T?'' Who is he? Did Star Anise talk to him


    too?"


    "Who knows? Maybe. Mister T and Star Anise are both virtual celebrities. This Mister T got his start


    designing weapons for real. He had a following on the ck market, and his designs fetched some


    pretty high prices. His client list included countries as well as individuals."


    "Is that where you found him? The ck market?"


    "No, he found us. The guy knows what he''s doing, at least as far as design goes, so I asked the design


    department to secure the copyrights for some of his work." It was Carlos who had taken charge of the


    whole thing. After all, it was a deal worth hundreds of millions when you factored in residuals and


    royalties. The financial department needed his signature before making the payment.


    Having a hazy notion of the matter, Evelyn nodded. "Dad, can you get in touch with Star Anise? Want


    to ask him about this?"


    "Humph! I won''t call him! He can call me."


    "Well... Okay." ''Dad is bing more and more childish, '' Evelyn sighed silently.


    At a jewelry store of Ji Group


    Although it was quitting time, none of the employees dared to leave because the boss was still working


    at the store.


    Wearing a pair of gloves, Calvert took out a quality pendant from inside the counter, ced it in a


    brocade box, and wrapped it. After that, he took off the gloves and looked at his watch. It was already


    past 10 p.m. "Sorry guys. You can go home now," he told the staff.


    Twenty minutester, Calvert left the jewelry store with the brocade box.


    He walked to the parking lot and opened the door of his car. A man sitting in the passenger seat


    startled him. When he recovered enough to take a good look, Calvert frowned and asked, "How did you


    get in my car?" He was sure he locked it.


    Sheffield grinned mischievously and pointed to the sunroof. Calvert looked up at the car and smacked


    his forehead in frustration. He forgot to close the sunroof. "What do you want now?" he asked coldly.


    "Can we talk?" Sheffield was quite busy these days. He had no chance to mess with Calvert until now.


    He emerged from the car. He didn''t need to be sitting down, now.


    "About Evelyn? Because if it is, you need to just shut your mouth and walk away."


    As calm as he could be, Sheffield quickly took a syringe out of his pocket and jammed it into Calvert''s


    neck before he knew what was happening.


    Calvert reacted quickly and raised his hand, trying to push the doctor away. But Sheffield was faster; he


    stomped on his right foot while fending off his attack with one hand.


    He pushed the plunger on the syringe and injected Calvert with the contents.


    Calvert''s face turned livid. "What did you just do?"


    "Gave you a little anesthetic," Sheffield answered honestly. Then he slowly pulled out the needle.


    As soon as he finished speaking, Calvert felt sour and weak all over, and 30 secondster his vision


    melted away. He started to faint, and Sheffield caught him. He pushed him in the direction of the car, so


    he''dnd in the seat when he fell. Calvert sat heavily in the driver''s side seat, then slumped over.


    Sheffield got out of the car and tried hard to drag Calvert''s limp body to the back seat. "You''re heavy.


    What—ugh—do they feed you?"


    ''I''m heavy?'' Still conscious, Calvert was irritated by his rude remarks. He had never been insulted like


    this before. He mustered his strength to yell. "You''re dead!" he slurred. "You hear me? D-E-A-D dead."


    It was getting harder to talk.


    When Sheffield heard these words, he paused and murmured, "All these threats. Everyone wants to kill


    me. But I''m still alive, suckers!"


    With great effort, Sheffield finally dragged the nearly two-meter tall man from the driver''s seat into the


    back seat.


    When Evelyn got the call from Rowena, Tayson had just driven her to the gate of the manor. "Evelyn,


    you''re dating a crazy man! He kidnapped Calvert! He wants to carve out his kidney! Where the hell


    does he work? Tell me now!"


    Unfazed by her crazy rant, Evelyn replied in a calm voice, "Suchnguage! I''m hanging up on you.


    You''re going to have to treat me with a little more respect."


    Since Calvert was still in Sheffield''s hands, Rowena had no choice but to give in. Swallowing down her


    pride, she apologized, "I''m sorry. Sheffield kidnapped Calvert. I''m really worried. Please help!" She had


    called Calvert a moment ago, but Sheffield answered his phone.
