Chapter 41

For the past month, Wang Yuyan and her daughter had been getting used to this strange world under Li She's gentle care. Flying airplanes, iron ships that could sail the seas, and even spaceships that could send people to the moon—these pieces of information left the two women overwhelmed.

For Li She, things like fake passports and IDs were as simple as elementary school exams. With the ready-made equipment in the basement, he took photos of the two women and made two American passports. After hacking into the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement website, he added Wang Yuyan and her daughter's identities, transforming them into genuine Americans with complete records from birth to education.

Li She couldn't help but admire the excellent genes of Wang Yuyan and Li Yunluo. Under his meticulous guidance, the two women displayed extraordinary talent in language learning, and simple communication was no longer a problem.

"Big treasure, little treasure, it took me more than a year to get a handle on English, but you two managed to do it in just a month! Basic communication is no issue for you!" Li She sighed.

"Of course, my father, Wuyazi, was an expert in medicine, astrology, and the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. How could a foreign language be a challenge for me?" Li Yunluo said proudly.

Wang Yuyan added, "Indeed, my dear, it's not difficult. I can remember the martial arts techniques of so many sects, so these strange symbols are easy once you grasp the patterns."

Li She could only label the two women as geniuses. If people who struggled to memorize words for the college entrance exam heard this, they would surely be furious.

After the two women had no issues with language, they began taking private lessons at home to better integrate into American society.

Li She, on the other hand, started preparing to return to his old profession. He searched online for information on wealthy individuals. At this moment, he saw a piece of information that, to ordinary people, would seem like spam, but to a seasoned thief, it was different. Every third or fifth word, when read together, formed the message: "Diamond job, commission of three million dollars."

This method of posting tasks was the most common in the domestic industry, but after the God of Wealth monopolized the intermediary market, such public task advertisements no longer existed. After monopolizing the industry, tasks were usually sent directly to individuals. Why would someone post such a task in America?

Driven by curiosity, Li She sent a reply email.

"Chinese? What task?" Li She replied.

At that moment, in a dilapidated apartment on the outskirts of Las Vegas, a woman looked at the email on an old computer and couldn't help but get excited.

"Sis, someone has taken our task! Ha, another fish has taken the bait!" a pale-faced woman shouted to the woman in the hospital bed.

The woman in the hospital bed was hooked up to various medical devices, with her hands heavily bandaged and her lower body seemingly paralyzed.

She opened her eyes slightly and smiled, "Oh? It seems the other party is also Chinese. After all, no one in America would post such a task advertisement. Don't take everything; leave some for them. It looks like they also fled to America!"

At that moment, a burly man with a cane pushed a middle-aged man in a wheelchair into the room.

The girl in front of the computer smiled when she saw them, "Brother Bing, Uncle Cat, are you back? How was it today?"

The burly man, known as Brother Bing, took out a plastic bag and said, "These medicines are getting harder to find! Today, I only managed to get enough for three days."

The middle-aged man in the wheelchair smiled, "Good job, Bing! We spent a lot of money on these! How is the third sister?"

The woman in the hospital bed said, "Still the same! It's not easy to recover from the injuries inflicted by that old ghost. By the way, someone has taken the task posted by Fourth Sister."

"Really? A fish has taken the bait? We're running out of money, so it's perfect to scam some from them," the burly man said.

The girl in front of the computer made a mischievous face and laughed, "You can relax. I, the Four-legged Snake, am not just a name! Ha, once I get their bank account, I can drain their funds! Ha, the fisherman casts the net, and the fish takes the bait. Who can blame me for your greed?" She quickly typed in a series of trojans on the keyboard.

Li She, sitting in front of his computer, was taken aback. His computer had been hacked. It seemed the email contained a trojan, and it was a skilled hacker. As soon as he replied, the trojan invaded his computer, and all account information would be stolen. If not for the firewalls on his computer, he wouldn't have noticed.

Li She stared at the computer, a faint smile on his lips. "So, it's a phishing attempt? Haha, let's see how much you've got!" Li She quickly engaged in a battle of attack and defense on his computer, continuously inputting commands to build firewalls, while the other party kept breaking through.

The pale-faced Four-legged Snake's forehead slowly broke into a sweat. She muttered, "Expert? Hmph! There are no experts in my eyes! The greater the risk, the greater the reward! Ha, you won't escape this big fish!"

The Four-legged Snake and her sister, Three Fingers, were severely injured when they infiltrated the Liu family compound. Unlike Li She, who had the skills of a master, Three Fingers' arm was crippled by Eagle Claw King Xu Kun, leaving five deep claw marks from the shoulder to the wrist. While covering her sister's retreat, she was hit by a punch from Dominant Fist Hu Sanjiang, resulting in high-level paralysis.

The Four-legged Snake also took a punch from Iron Monk on her shoulder. The two sisters barely managed to escape the security bureau and the Liu family's forces and fled to America. In Las Vegas, they met Little Bing and Old Cat, who were also in dire straits. Little Bing's knee was shattered by Hu Sanjiang, and he had also taken two punches from Iron Monk. Old Cat was even worse, with his back torn apart by Xu Kun's eagle claws and spinal damage, leaving him in a wheelchair.

The four of them had fled in a hurry and dared not use their original bank accounts for fear of being tracked. Xu Kun and the others were experts in internal energy, leaving the four with many hidden injuries. In America, even with advanced medical technology, these injuries could not be cured. The four could only rely on the Four-legged Snake's phishing software to scam money for a living. Old Cat and Little Bing were responsible for buying food and medicine, while Three Fingers, now a cripple, relied on the Four-legged Snake's superior hacking skills to survive.

After more than ten minutes, Li She traced the hacker's location through the traces left behind. "Oh, it's in the same city! Looks like they're quite capable!" Li She said. He needed to build his own power base and was short of manpower. He decided to recruit this hacker. Li She transferred ninety thousand dollars from his account, leaving ten thousand for the hacker.

"Big treasure, little treasure, I'm going out for a bit!" Li She said and left.

At that moment, the Four-legged Snake finally broke through the firewall and saw the ten thousand dollars. "Yay! Ten thousand! Ha, ten thousand dollars!"

Old Cat sighed, "Ah, even a hero can be brought down by a lack of money! In the past, ten thousand dollars would have been just a suit for me."

"Enough! Uncle Cat, don't be greedy. This is the biggest amount we've gotten in months. We're all old, weak, sick, and injured. The only one who can earn money is Little Four. Little Four, don't leave any traces for them to track us," Little Bing said.

"Relax! No one in this world can track me!" the Four-legged Snake said proudly.

After a brief moment of joy, the three began their tasks. The Four-legged Snake took the medicine Little Bing had brought and changed her sister's bandages. Xu Kun's claw strength had penetrated her arm, and after three months, Three Fingers' arm still hadn't healed.

Little Bing and Old Cat injected themselves with morphine and other painkillers to endure the internal energy pain that worsened at night.

After finishing, the Four-legged Snake took out some leftover food from the fridge, heated it, and fed her sister a bowl of thin porridge.

After a thirty-minute drive, Li She arrived at the address in a Ford minivan, following the car's tracking system. Looking at the dilapidated apartment, he muttered, "A great hermit in the city or someone who fled like me?" He got out of the car and walked toward the address. This was the outskirts of Las Vegas, where most residents were poor, and the surrounding area was sandy. After parking the car, he walked toward the opposite dilapidated eight-story apartment building, entered the alley, and looked around. Seeing no one, he used his lightness skill to leap to the fourth floor, then jumped to the eighth-floor rooftop.

According to the traces left by the hacker, the address was on the eighth floor of this building. The rooftop door was chained, and Li She easily broke it open with a loud 'clang,' pulling the lock off.

The eighth-floor windows were boarded up, and the hallway was filled with a musty smell. The dark corridor was littered with garbage and old newspapers, making it look uninhabited.

Seeing this, Li She became even more interested. The hacker was not only skilled but possibly had a military background. Under the old newspapers and garbage, there were traps, and fine fishing lines were set along the walls, likely for early warning.

An ordinary person would have triggered the alarm in the dim hallway, but as a master, Li She could see in the dark, and these small traps were no match for him.

Leaving no trace, Li She approached a door. His master-level senses already told him the situation inside the room.

After the four were injured, their uneven breathing and heartbeats revealed to Li She, "Four people? Two men and two women, and they are all severely injured!" Li She thought.
