(Tanks to the book friend "☆づ惜ぉ尐夜" for the generous 8888 reward! Bow! Thanks to the book friend "150321225123572" for the support! Bow! I've been drinking at weddings for three consecutive days, and I really can't update today. There will only be two updates. Please understand, and my wallet is already empty, sniff...)

Although Tian Tian woke up, she didn't feel very well. Seeing Chen Mo come out, she asked curiously, "Xiao Mo, where were you just now?"

Chen Mo smiled and said, "I was just about to tell you about this."

Then Chen Mo explained how he had transformed the basement into an underground factory. After hearing this, Tian Tian opened her eyes wide and said, "Xiao Mo, you were busy in the basement all night?! Can you still hold on? Do you need to rest first?"

Chen Mo was taken aback and then hesitated, "Sister Tian, what did you say? I was busy in the basement all night? That can't be, it's still light outside, isn't it?"

Tian Tian couldn't help but laugh, "I guess you entered the basement in the afternoon yesterday. It's already 11 AM now. You were so engrossed in your work that you forgot the time."

Chen Mo looked at the wall clock and saw that it was indeed 11 AM. He then said embarrassedly, "It seems I really did forget the time. I'm really sorry to have kept Sister Tian waiting for so long."

Tian Tian waved her hand, "It's fine. I had a colleague's birthday yesterday, and I went out drinking and singing with them, hardly sleeping all night. When I came over this morning, my head was spinning. I thought you had gone out to buy something, so I took a short nap. I didn't expect you to have been up all night too. My spirits aren't good either. Why don't we rest for a day and start the lessons tomorrow?"

Chen Mo chuckled and said, "Sure, let's start the lessons tomorrow."

Tian Tian nodded, stood up, and walked out. Chen Mo returned to the bedroom and picked up the bag of money from under the bed, saying, "I should put the money away before I sleep. It's not safe to leave it in the villa."

Chen Mo doesn't have an ID card, so to deposit the money, he used a fake ID. The bank wouldn't be able to tell if it was real or not. He was depositing the money, not trying to scam, so they wouldn't be too strict.

Chen Mo used the fake ID to deposit 100,000 yuan and then transferred 4,000 yuan to the account of the beautiful master, leaving the cash he won from the arcade as pocket money.

After finishing his business, he went home to sleep and didn't wake up until dinner time. Looking at the dark night outside, Chen Mo yawned and started preparing dinner.

At exactly 9 PM, Chen Mo went down to the basement and moved the computer he had built to the bedroom. After connecting the network cable, he pressed the power button and started surfing the internet.

The computer forum at Linhai University was very lively today. Chen Mo browsed around and found that most people were discussing the hacker conference. There were many theories about the identity of the mysterious hacker expert. Chen Mo marveled at the expert's terrifying skills and resolved, "I must become an expert no matter what!"

Chen Mo didn't know that the expert was actually himself. To learn advanced hacking skills from the beautiful master as soon as possible, Chen Mo quickly left the forum and logged into the hacking technology learning website.

In the girls' dormitory at Huqing University, Li Ranzhu was enthusiastically discussing the mysterious Chinese hacker expert with her fellow disciples. This was an excellent topic for them, one that would never go out of style.

As they were chatting happily, Li Ranzhu saw the chat box flashing. She typed to her fellow disciples, "Everyone, our disciple has appeared."

East Evil: "West Poison, have you asked him for the tuition?"

North Beggar: "We're all counting on you for a big meal. You can't slack off."

South Emperor: "I've been eating bland food for days. I really need to improve my diet!"

Li Ranzhu originally wanted to tell them that Chen Mo was a fraud, but after some thought, she held back. She knew their temperaments and felt that even if she told the truth, they might not believe her. They might even blame her for making excuses to be lazy.

Thinking about this, she typed, "The plan is in progress, but I'm not sure if he will really pay. You keep chatting, I'll go check the situation."

After typing, she opened the chat box and saw the message: "Beautiful master, I have already paid the 4,000 yuan tuition. You can check by phone first, and then we can discuss the lessons."

Li Ranzhu was slightly stunned and then asked in confusion, "Did this guy really pay me? What does he want?"

After a moment of silence, she typed, "Master will check first."

She then ran to the phone booth downstairs to check her bank account. When she heard the balance, she couldn't help but be delighted, "Really! This fraudster actually paid me!"

Li Ranzhu was so excited that she jumped around. She felt this was like a pie falling from the sky. But soon, her excitement faded, and she frowned, "Why did this guy pay me? Does he want to corrupt me with money and then seduce me? No, he doesn't even know what I look like. Why would he try to seduce me? What if I'm a dinosaur?"

In Li Ranzhu's eyes, Chen Mo was an expert. She spent half an hour trying to hack his computer during the test but failed, showing that his skills were not bad, at least on par with hers. This is why she believed Chen Mo had ulterior motives.

Later, Li Ranzhu set a trap for Chen Mo, but he passed the test without any problems. Li Ranzhu thought he was lying and was very wary of him. She originally just wanted to try to scam some money from him to teach him a lesson, but she didn't expect it to succeed, which surprised her.

The online world is different from the real world. Both sides don't know each other's identities, so trust is much lower. In such a situation, he still sent the money. What does this mean? Is he a fool? Or does he really trust me?

Li Ranzhu thought for a while, and the more she thought, the more confused she became. Back in the dormitory, she hesitated and then typed, "Disciple, Master has a question for you. You must answer truthfully."

Chen Mo waited for a while before seeing the beautiful master's message. After reading it, he immediately replied, "Beautiful master, please ask. Your disciple will answer truthfully."

Li Ranzhu typed, "You've never met me and don't know my true identity. Aren't you afraid I might scam your money?"

Chen Mo was taken aback and then typed, "How could a master like you, a great expert, stoop to scamming a disciple's money? That's impossible."

Although Chen Mo typed this, he thought to himself, "Is the beautiful master really a fraudster? If so, my money will be gone!" (A great event with cool phones to win!
