Noticing Xi Xi's silence, the butler grew anxious, "Did you hear what I said?"
Xi Xi could only nod obediently.
"Good boy," the butler praised. "Don't mention this to Mr. He later. He doesn't like people going near that room, and no questions either."
Xi Xi replied, "I understand."
"Good."
The butler led him downstairs for breakfast.
After breakfast, Xi Xi still hadn't seen Mr. He come down, so he simply turned back to his room. He called Chen Chen to complain.
"Brother, don't you think this person is really strange? He has two locked rooms in his own house. I think there must be some big secret hidden inside."
"Hidden what?"
"How would I know?" Xi Xi pouted and threw himself onto the soft, large bed. "I tried to ask the butler and the maids, but they wouldn't let me inquire and told me not to go near. The more they act like this, the more I'm convinced there's something fishy about those two rooms!"
"Do you want to go take a look?"
"Better not," Xi Xi said, reaching up to scratch his cheek. "It's not good to pry into other people's privacy. I'm just curious. My intuition tells me Uncle He probably doesn't have any unspeakable secrets, maybe it's related to that woman."
"Woman?"
"Mm-hmm. I accidentally overheard them talking before. They said Uncle He has a woman in his heart, and it seems like he's hidden it for many years."
Chen Chen made an "oh" sound. "It seems this Uncle He is quite devoted."
"He is."
Chen Chen suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are there any cameras in the corridor?"
"No, but there is a camera outside that room."
Xi Xi had almost been caught when he was fiddling with the lock.
If he hadn't disabled that footage in time, he would have been discovered.
Chen Chen then said, "In that case, you can hack into their surveillance system. Uncle He will definitely open the door when he goes in, and then you'll be able to see what's inside."
"That's a great idea!" Xi Xi's eyes lit up, but then he thought of something and frowned, "But wouldn't that be a bit too much?"
Chen Chen fell silent.
Xi Xi called out to him, "Brother? Are you still there?"
Chen Chen reminded him, "Do you remember your initial purpose for finding him?"
Xi Xi was speechless.
His original purpose was, of course, to deal with this bad guy who bullied his mommy. But...
But he seemed to have forgotten about it now.
Chen Chen said calmly, "You're just taking a look, not going in. As long as you confirm that what's inside won't harm Mommy, it's okay."
Xi Xi thought he made sense. "Then I'll listen to you. I'll tell you what's inside when I find out. Oh, and brother, last time I promised Mommy I'd come back but changed my mind at the last minute. Mommy must be very unhappy. Can you coax her for me?"
Speaking of this, the little guy's voice held a hint of guilt.
Chen Chen said, "Don't worry."
Mommy had never blamed him.
"Mm-hmm, thank you, brother!"
After hanging up the phone, Xi Xi ran to borrow a laptop from the butler.
The butler asked, "Are you going to play games?"
Xi Xi nodded.
The butler instructed, "The computer screen is bad for your eyes. Remember not to play for too long."
"I know."
With that, Xi Xi hugged the laptop and scurried into the room.
The butler shook his head and turned away.
In the room.
Xi Xi looked at the computer screen, his hands constantly tapping on the keyboard. He wasn't used to this keyboard, but since he didn't have his usual mechanical keyboard here, he had to endure it.
He tried to hack into the surveillance system, and soon discovered it wasn't easy.
The surveillance here had a firewall.
This firewall was of a high level, with a very complex encryption method. He first tried a few simple programs, but couldn't get through at all.
So he upgraded the programs.
After trying about four or five more times, he still couldn't break through. Was the other party's firewall too strong, or were these programs too weak?
These programs were old.
Xi Xi had been busy with Mr. He's matters recently and hadn't had time to research new ones, but he was currently researching new programs, and it was too late.
Ah!
Xi Xi suddenly remembered something. Mommy seemed to have developed a new program, and it was said she had never used it.
He might as well try it out!
His short, plump, white fingers tapped rapidly on the keyboard, Xi Xi's bright black eyes fixed on the computer screen without blinking.
As time slowly passed, sweat gradually beaded on the little guy's forehead.
He never expected this firewall to be so difficult to breach!
Who set up the firewall?
How could he not have known there was such a powerful expert?
Xi Xi pursed his lips, picked up the nearby water cup, and took a sip.
The more difficult it was, the harder he had to try!
The little guy became more courageous the more he faced setbacks, and with full vigor, he began to tackle the firewall.
Just as he was about to break through, a string of code suddenly appeared!
Xi Xi trembled.
Someone was secretly manipulating this firewall to contend with him!
Alright, let him meet this expert!
Xi Xi quickly discovered that this expert was very powerful. In terms of offense, they were on par with him, and for a while, it was hard to tell who would win.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Little friend, I'm coming in."
Xi Xi was startled, his hand trembled, and he typed the wrong letter. This evenly matched battle immediately came to an end.
Xi Xi drooped his head.
He had lost.
The door opened, and Mr. He first looked around the room before taking steps. "I was worried you might be asleep and I would disturb you."
Xi Xi shook his head.
Seeing his listless look, Mr. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
The little boy seemed to be in a bad mood.
Xi Xi shook his head, his expression unchanged. "Nothing."
But Mr. He's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw that the little boy was lying. "Tell Uncle, did you encounter any difficulties?"
Attacking your house's surveillance encountered an obstacle...
Xi Xi muttered to himself, but he couldn't tell him this. He could only shake his head. "Really nothing. I'm just worried that if I stay here too long, Mommy might be angry with me."
"Then do you want to go home?"
"Of course I want to, but I'm not planning to go back right now." Xi Xi sat on the edge of the bed, closed the laptop, and placed it on the bedside table, swinging his two little legs by the bed. "I'll go back after your illness has recovered."
"Actually, I'm already much better."
He didn't want the little boy to upset his parents by staying for his sake.
Unfortunately, before he could finish, Xi Xi said, "Don't try to persuade me. I know what I'm doing. Once I've made up my mind, no one can change it."
Except for Mommy.
Mr. He looked at his stubborn little face and couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, I'll listen to you..."
