Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 772

The breeze blew at the curtains, making them flutter. In the room, Nora's face alternated between light and dark as the fluttering curtains cast shadows on her.

She stared at the contents of the metal box in astonishment—there was only a memo, and written on it was Morse code again.

However, she already had the key to Morse code's uncommon encryption, so it took her only two minutes to decipher the code on the memo: "Staav University, Archives, No. 004"

"Archives, No. 004"?

What did that mean?

Nora didn't have time to look up anything. She tossed the metal box under the bed, tore the memo, went into the bathroom, and flushed it down the toilet.

Thereafter, as Justin's fiancee, Nora helped out at the wake while the three children played in the villa.

Fatty even peeked at them from the door. When he found that the three of them were playing, he immediately shouted, "Why aren't you guys crying when your father is dead?"

Cherry was furious. "You're the one whose father is dead! There's no way Daddy would die!"

Fatty scoffed, "Why not? They are holding a wake for your father right now! He's dead! And he's not gonna come back! The three of you are fatherless children from

now on!"

Right after he said that, Xander reached into his pocket and suddenly took out a slingshot. Then, he picked up a pebble, aimed it at Fatty, and fired!

Thud!

The pebble struck Fatty's mouth accurately, making his lip bleed.

Fatty immediately burst into tears and ran away crying. "Boo, the three of them are teaming up and bullying me!"

Cherry:

Xander:

Pete:

Three days later, they buried the body in the cemetery.

The dead were gone, and the living must look forward.

At the wake, no one dared to make things difficult for Nora because Ian and Joel stayed with her the entire time, never leaving her side for even a moment. This also prevented Nora from having a chance to find out what No. 004 of Staav University's archives was.

It was not until three days later, after everyone finally dispersed, that she secretly logged on to the Internet and hacked into Staav University's archives.

It stood to reason that in this era of e-learning, all files should have been digitized so that it would be convenient for people to review later on. However, when Nora keyed in the search term "No. 004", red error text appeared on the webpage: "There are no records of the file you are trying to access."

Nora frowned.

When she was abroad, she had majored in medicine, so she was very familiar with some schools' quirks. Oftentimes, schools didn't upload information about the subjects they excelled at and other top-secret information into their electronic database. This was to prevent the information from becoming common knowledge.

Well, that made sense. Given how mysterious the V16 was, why would they digitize information about it and make it convenient for her, a hacker, to steal the formula any time she wanted?

Nora rested her chin on her hand and heaved a silent sigh. It seemed that she would have to make a trip to Staav University.

It was just that... How was she going to head there in an inconspicuous and low-key manner?

If she went over so rashly, she would definitely attract the attention of the people tailing her.
