Chapter 924 Anthony Discovers A Bug
Looking at Denise, who was blinking curiously, Benjamin spoke in a low voice. “It's nothing!”
“Really?” Denise pouted, whispering, “Do you all think I'm stupid, unable to detect anything?”
Benjamin reached out and gently patted her head, his voice filled with affection. “You're anything but stupid!”
With her lively eyes twinkling, Denise exclaimed, “Then why do you still deceive me, Ben?”
Benjamin withdrew his hand, looking at her helplessly. “This isn't deception. It's a matter between Tony and me, a problem
among men, so it should be resolved by us.”
This explanation was something that Denise could quite accept.
She hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “All right. If that's the case, I won't pry any further. Remember not to stay angry for too
long, though,” Denise said.
Although the brothers had their share of arguments growing up, those disputes became less and less frequent as they matured.
The situation on that day was something that hadn't occurred for a long while.
Hence, upon seeing the situation, Denise was somewhat curious.
At that moment, Benjamin's gaze fell on the lively face of Denise. After a long while, the corners of his mouth curved upward.
“Understood.”
Denise looked at him before smiling sweetly. Seeing that, Benjamin also started to laugh.
Under the setting sun, the siblings stood there, their shadows stretching out long. It was a kind of indescribable beauty.
Meanwhile, Anthony was sitting in front of the computer, his fingers rapidly tapping away.
The operation was imminent, so he must make some preparations.
Regarding DX's dark web, he still needed to understand the program to prevent any oversights during an attack.
After entering the authorization code, Anthony quickly accessed the dark web. As he was exploring, he suddenly noticed an
unusual trace. Anthony followed that string of code and discovered a set of numerical traces that didn't quite match the rest of
the dark web. According to Anthony's intuition, that was set up intentionally by someone.
With that thought in mind, Anthony began tapping away on his keyboard.
Concurrently, Anthony directly dialed Dave's phone number.
A few seconds later, the call connected. “Hello.”
“Mr. Dave, it's me.” Anthony spoke up.
“What's wrong?” Dave asked straightforwardly.
“Where are you now?”
“Headquarters. I'm in a meeting.”
“Perfect. I'll send you a set of codes. Have the person in charge of the dark web take a look and see what's going on!” Anthony
said directly.
As he was speaking, Dave's phone received a message. He opened it to find a string of codes from the dark web, causing his
brows to furrow. He then put the phone to his ear and asked directly, “What is this?”
“While exploring the dark web system earlier, I came across a set of numbers that seemed out of the ordinary. I ran all the
programs, and these sets of numbers don't seem to align with anything in the system!”
Dave understood his meaning, pondered for a moment, and said, “Anthony, just tell me the conclusion.”
“If I'm not mistaken, this must be a loophole left intentionally by someone!” Anthony said.
Dave listened, then walked straight outside. Only when he reached a deserted place did he speak up. “Anthony, answer me
directly. What will happen if this flaw is exploited?” Dave asked.
After some thought, Anthony said, “Well, it depends on who's using it!”
“What'll happen if ordinary people access it?”
“Ordinary people can't cause much of a stir. At most, they may accidentally trigger your system, causing you to panic, or perhaps
implant a virus.”
“Won't implanting a virus stir up trouble?”
“This is something your person in charge of the dark web can handle. It's not a big issue!”
Upon reflection, Dave agreed. However, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “What if it was accessed by you and Nat?”
As Anthony was tapping on his keyboard, he paused slightly upon hearing these words. “Well, that's hard to say. If it was me, I
might just take down the entire dark web. If it were up to Nat, all of your core secrets would probably be exposed. However, if it
were both of us... I'd really like to know too!” Anthony said.
So far, Anthony hadn't yet teamed up with Natasha, even though he knew they'd make a powerful team. He was very curious
about what the outcome would be if they worked together.
In response, Dave fell silent for a moment. “I understand. I'll handle it right away!”
“If you need my help, I'm willing to offer it for free!” Anthony said.
“No need. I'm the person in charge of the dark web, and I'm not that stupid!” With that, Dave was about to hang up the phone.
“Mr. Dave!”
Just as Dave was about to hang up the phone, Anthony suddenly spoke up to stop him.
“Is there anything else?” Dave asked.
“I've found out when that set of numbers was left behind. It was on the ninth of last month. Mr. Dave, you'd better look into it. I
personally think this matter isn't as simple as it seems!” Anthony said.
“You're saying there's a mole in the dark web?” Dave asked.
“It's hard to tell just based on that, but this matter isn't that simple!” Anthony said in a low voice.
Upon hearing the news, Dave chuckled lightly. “Last time when Nat came to DX, she told me there was a mole. Now, you're
logging into the dark web and telling me the same thing. What's next? Is the entirety of DX going to be purged?”
“I don't want to bring you that news either. However, it's better to be safe than sorry, Mr. Dave!”
“I know!” After saying that, Dave hung up immediately.
Standing at the door, Dave pondered for a moment. The ninth of last month... That was before Kenneth and his team arrived.
Indeed, the dark web was attacked once at that time. However, it was merely a minor disturbance. They didn't even penetrate
the outer layer before eventually giving up. Could this be related to that incident?
With that thought in mind, Dave immediately pulled out his phone and made a call. “Come to my conference room!”
Meanwhile, Anthony was at the computer, far from idle. In addition to figuring out the time when the set of numbers was left
behind, he also created a code for Dave's group to facilitate their subsequent repairs.
After finishing, Anthony immediately sent it to Dave.
Afterward, he continued to study the dark web. Apart from that suspicious set of numbers, the dark web was indeed a formidable
system. It could defend against attacks and even paralyze the attacker, among other things. However, he only had limited
access, so he was still in the dark about the internal functions of the dark web.
However, no matter how good a computer system was, Anthony always believed there was room for improvement. The moment
he saw the dark web, a multitude of ideas sprang to his mind. Instead of sitting idly by, he immediately started typing code on his
computer.
Time passed quickly as he focused on his task.
When Anthony interacted with those codes, he was completely engrossed, finding joy and pleasure in the process. It was to the
point that time slipped past him without him even noticing.
When he tapped the last number on the keyboard, a satisfied smile appeared on his countenance. He stretched lazily, turning his
gaze toward the outside. By then, the sky outside had already darkened.
Just as Anthony was about to get up, his phone rang again. He frowned when he saw the call was from Dave.
