699: Tear everything open for everyone to see
Moreover, the United States' technological strength is leading, and it is inevitable that a large organization like the Hacker Alliance can exist openly; there must be a reason for it.
Su Yue walked in and saw that it was not much different from an ordinary office building, except there were more computers, and they were all expensive, high-end goods. Su Yue thought to himself, it must cost a lot of money to maintain such an operation.
There weren't many people on this floor right now, and he couldn't find any clues, so Su Yue had to continue going upstairs.
"What are you doing? Why are you just barging in?" Just as Su Yue was about to go upstairs, he was stopped by someone coming down. The person's expression was as serious as if he were interrogating Su Yue.
"I'm going upstairs to pick up a computer," Su Yue replied calmly.
"You're not from the upper floor, are you? What computer are you going upstairs to pick up?"
Su Yue's mind raced, and he continued, "Helping Master Xilu pick up a computer." When Su Yue mentioned the name Xilu, the person's eyes clearly showed a hint of panic. It seemed Xilu was quite intimidating.
"Then go ahead, be careful and don't damage anyone else's computer."
"Wait a moment, brother, I heard Master Xilu say that we have a new person here again?" Su Yue had not taken off his mask. People here didn't pay too much attention to others' appearances.
All they cared about was whether their skills were good.
"What are you thinking? Do you think someone is here for you to bully? Stop dreaming, the person who came is a former senior member of the Hacker Alliance. Before, he was blind and defected to another senior executive, and now he's back."
Su Yue nodded and continued upstairs, thinking to himself, it seems Li Si really is back here. Is it really because of what Zheng Tiantian analyzed? Did he think I abandoned him again? This silly child!
The higher Su Yue went, the more spacious the area became. It seemed the layout of this building was completely divided according to rank or skill. He didn't know how good Li Si's skills were here, but based on his own investigation, even if he was here, he should be a very formidable character.
"What are you guys doing?" Su Yue had been careful all along, not wanting to run into anyone else, and deliberately avoided people.
"You finally know how to come back now?" As soon as Su Yue heard this, he immediately stopped.
"What's it to you! Stop talking sarcastic here." As soon as Li Si's voice came out, Su Yue stopped moving forward. It was clear the target had appeared.
"I don't mean to be sarcastic, but if you want to rejoin, the price you have to pay is not small!" The person speaking seemed to be provoking Li Si, but Li Si completely ignored him.
"What does that have to do with you? What if I'm punished? Are you that happy? Or are you unhappy if I'm not punished?"
"Besides, think about it, I've been gone for at least a month, right? For us Hackers, time is life. You haven't climbed to my original position in such a long time, what? Are you here to tell me you're still not as good as me?"
Li Si's few words rendered the person speechless. Su Yue listened, glad that Li Si hadn't been bullied, otherwise he definitely wouldn't have been able to resist and would have rushed out immediately. Even if he didn't rush out, Zheng Ziye would kill him when he got back.
"Alright, please come in now!" Su Yue thought it was the last floor, but he didn't expect there was another one. There were still people waiting outside for Li Si to come out, so Su Yue couldn't go in easily.
He could only hide first so as not to be discovered by others, and then contact Li Si properly later to explain to him.
Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed through Su Yue's mind. The person just now said that Li Si paid a great price to leave here. If he entered the Hacker Alliance again this time, it would be difficult to get out again.
Thinking of this, Su Yue directly revealed himself and stopped Li Si.
"You are?" Li Si didn't expect someone to stop him at this moment.
"I'm Su Yue, come home with me!" Su Yue directly took off his mask, revealing his face.
"Director? Why are you here? Oh my god, are you here to find me?" Li Si looked very surprised. He had always thought he was abandoned, but he didn't expect to be able to go home now!
"What do you think? Why am I here?" Su Yue looked at the child's expression and knew he must have misunderstood him.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" The person standing next to Li Si suddenly saw Su Yue barge in and didn't react for a moment.
"Then why didn't you say goodbye to me at that time? You only said goodbye to the agent group, and I thought... thought..." Li Si said, then lowered his head, too embarrassed to say anything more.
"Let's go, let's go home quickly. Your Sweetie Jie and Uncle are waiting for you to come home for dinner. I was originally going to tell you during dinner, what kind of temper are you throwing?" Su Yue got angry looking at Li Si.
It wasn't that he wasn't worried about this child, after all, he was working hard alone in this country.
"No, can't you hear me? Who are you? How did you get in?" Su Yue took Li Si and wanted to leave here, completely ignoring him.
"Excuse me, did you get my permission to take someone from my Hacker Alliance?" The mysterious figure on the top floor finally appeared. Su Yue saw him and wasn't surprised at all.
"What? Governor? You're finally willing to show your face? Do you even wear a mask when you meet them?" Su Yue said, looking at Ford, who was wearing a mask.
"How did you recognize me? So far, no one has been able to recognize me as soon as they meet me!" The Governor was not flustered, but rather seemed to appreciate Su Yue's appearance and asked curiously.
"What? Want to know? Then why don't you, Governor, first talk about why you committed suicide at the Presidential Candidate conference? That's what I can't figure out," Su Yue asked.
Su Yue looked at Ford, with no hint of surprise on his face.
"What? Shouldn't this make you wonder? You are the one I have always found puzzling!" Ford clearly didn't believe Su Yue's question was sincere and thought Su Yue was just stalling for time.
"What? If you don't give an answer, you'll accuse me?" Su Yue didn't mind arguing with Ford here, but he knew his situation. After all, he was still with Li Si and couldn't waste too much time.
"Ford, I know there must have been a reason behind your suicidal speech at that time. Even if you hadn't committed suicide, I would have released the evidence our Central Intelligence Agency found. I think if you hadn't committed suicide, your fate today might have been even worse."
Ford was taken aback. He really didn't know there was such a factor.
"What? How were you planning to accuse me at that time?" Ford pretended to be indifferent on the surface, but in his heart, he was wondering if any part of his plan had been exposed. How could Su Yue have found a handle?
"If I told you, wouldn't I really be unable to leave?" Su Yue said with a smile. "Let Li Si go first, and then I'll tell you!" Ford looked at Su Yue's confident appearance and didn't make things difficult for him, nodding in agreement.

"Alright, go home first. Sweetie Jie has saved dinner for you and made your favorite scrambled eggs with tomatoes. I'll be back in a while. Be obedient, understand? Otherwise, I'll really demote you!" Su Yue finished speaking and pushed Li Si away.
Su Yue stood by the window, watching Li Si being picked up by a car, and only then did he relax and look away.
"How is it? Are you relieved now? You can finally talk!" Ford watched Su Yue constantly paying attention to Li Si's safety and didn't stop him. When he founded this organization, his original intention was to recruit various talents. Li Si was a computer genius, and he was reluctant to do anything to Li Si.
According to the usual rules, people who don't want to work in the Hacker Alliance must leave something behind. But Ford didn't let Li Si leave anything, hoping he would come back.
"Mr. Ford, it's not too late for you to answer my question first. After all, I'm not leaving now. If you want to waste time, I don't care!" Su Yue leaned back on the sofa and gently closed his eyes. His spirit had been tense, and he could finally rest properly here.
"My actions at that time?" Ford didn't originally want to say anything, but he was still very worried about whether Su Yue had found a handle on his plan. Otherwise, why would Su Yue resign so quickly? Even if China put pressure on him, Su Yue wasn't someone who would easily give in.
In short, this deal shouldn't be a loss. After Ford thought it through, he said, "You can find out that the current Federal Court is actually hereditary, and you can also find out that the actual leader of Washington D.C. is the higher-ups, not me, right?"
Speaking of this, a hint of unwillingness was revealed in Ford's voice.
"What? You still don't believe me?" Ford saw that Su Yue hadn't even opened his eyes and thought Su Yue didn't believe him.
"I know, but I want to know more than just that," Su Yue said with a smile, looking at Ford.
"What else do you want to know?" Ford saw that Su Yue was still not satisfied and started to become a little impatient.
"Has Fells never given up on becoming President?" As soon as Su Yue said this, Ford's eyes involuntarily widened.
"Looking at your reaction, I should be right!" Su Yue said with a smile.
"How did you find out? Clearly..." Ford carefully recalled the previous plan. He clearly thought Su Yue hadn't figured it out.
"I didn't see it at first either, especially during the time Deng Liduō and Fells controlled me in the Central Intelligence Agency. I really thought the two of them were working together. But I suddenly realized at the banquet, based on the time I sent the file, Minsweite couldn't have said this when I was giving my speech."
After all, we Chinese people value time and credibility very much, unlike you Europeans and Americans! Su Yue said mischievously.
"You found out then?" Ford frowned, not expecting this plan to have such a flaw. But it didn't matter, after all, there were no other options now, and it was impossible to hold another Presidential Candidate conference.
That would only make the international community laugh and make other people in the United States completely disappointed in their country.
"However, that payment in your account doesn't seem so simple!" Su Yue said with a smile.
"In my account?" A hint of panic flashed across Ford's face. Could it be that Fells wanted to discard him after he had served his purpose? He had put in so much effort to work for him and plan things, could he end up in prison in the future?
Ford had previously found that a transfer of $20 million was inexplicably transferred into his account, but it hadn't arrived yet. Within two hours, that $20 million was transferred back through bank operations.
Was Fells really going to make a move against him?
Su Yue looked at Ford's solemn face, sneered, and said another sentence: "Don't worry, you're not the only one in this situation!" After speaking, Su Yue turned and left. Ford wanted to catch Su Yue, nothing more than to take him to Fells to claim credit. But now it seemed completely unnecessary; what he needed to care about more was his own safety.
When Su Yue returned home, he saw that Zheng Tiantian, Zheng Ziye, and Li Si hadn't eaten and had been waiting for him to come back.
"You're back a bit late. The food needs to be reheated," Zheng Tiantian pouted, trying to hold back a smile.
"Director, I know I was wrong. I won't think nonsense next time. Sister-in-law has already told me."
"Come quickly, eat something good."
The three of them tacitly didn't ask Su Yue what happened, but Su Yue knew that if he hadn't come back tonight, none of them would have touched their chopsticks. He even saw the weapon Zheng Ziye had hidden.
"What food? I'm so hungry! Let's eat quickly." After washing his hands, Su Yue sat down at the dinner table and ate heartily.
Li Si looked at Su Yue's appearance, also relaxed, and followed his Director's lead, eating heartily without any regard for his image. What Su Yue didn't say was that he still had a knife wound on his left arm.
Su Yue carefully avoided using his left arm, afraid that they would notice something was wrong.
"What are your plans now? Are you going back to the Central Intelligence Agency?" After dinner, Su Yue asked Li Si about his plans.
"If you're not going, why would I go there?" Li Si rolled his eyes. He wasn't suited for that environment in the first place, but he went for Su Yue.
"What price did you pay for leaving the Hacker Alliance before?" Su Yue finally couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, that? I just played a game with him, I won, and then I left!" Li Si said it casually, as if it was just a simple game, but everyone present understood that things were far from that simple.
"Director, where are you going to go from now on? I still want to follow you, is that okay?" Li Si asked Su Yue cheekily while eating a small orange.
"Me? I plan to take down your Hacker Alliance, do you want to join?" Su Yue said this expressionlessly, and Li Si almost choked on the orange in his mouth.
"No way, are you serious?" Li Si widened his eyes and asked Su Yue earnestly.
"Nonsense, of course it's true! But I need your help!" Su Yue said, looking at Li Si.
"Director, just tell me what you want me to do, I guarantee I'll complete the mission, succeed or die!" Li Si said solemnly, as if making an oath.
"I don't need you to be so serious. I just need you to represent the Central Intelligence Agency and confront the Federal Court, that's all!" Su Yue said with ill intentions.
"No way, Director, you're not going, why do you want me to go? I don't want to go to the Central Intelligence Agency either, I don't have any good friends there, I don't want to go!" Li Si grumbled unhappily.
"If you don't want to go, it's okay, I won't force you. But there really isn't much to do lately." It wasn't that Su Yue couldn't think of other things, but he knew that Fells becoming President was only a matter of time.
Once the opportunity was missed, everything would be too late.
"Alright, then tell me, Director, how should I confront the Federal Court?" Li Si had no choice but to agree.
