Hackers...
As soon as Solo said that, Brenda suddenly looked at Nora.
Nora also narrowed her eyes.
Between Q and Y, only her identity had been publicly announced, so the other party did not know that Y was Justin. Besides, even Nora couldn't say for sure whether Justin was here or not, let alone the other party?
Therefore, she was the one whom they were guarding against!
In other words, Barbarian was already aware that Nora was here.
Nora frowned.
Once again, she was acutely feeling just how tough the enemy was. Barbarian's overwhelmingly powerful fighting abilities coupled with Spacey, whose hacking skills might be comparable to hers...
Could she really beat a combination like that and get the V16?
While Nora was thinking, Brenda had already sorted out her thoughts. She looked straight at Aaron and said slowly, "The most important thing for us now is to find Peter's body as soon as possible, so that we can prove that I am speaking the truth, or else the president is going to kick us out tomorrow! In addition, the students and professors are all intellectuals with minds of their own. They will never let us confine them here for ten days or half a month!"
Aaron nodded but said anxiously, "But where is the body? We don't have any clues at all."
Brenda said, "The whole campus was closed off last night, so they definitely can't transport the body out. The body must still be within school premises!"
Aaron nodded again. "Okay, I'll send someone to look for it right away. Even if we must turn the whole school upside down, we will find the body."
After that, Aaron made a phone call and dispatched his men to look for the body.
But after he hung up the phone, he saw an extremely grave look on Brenda's face.
"What's wrong?" Aaron asked.
A grim-faced Brenda replied, "We have been investigating suspicious people the whole time since yesterday, but even until now, we still haven't found any clues. Barbarian is a living, breathing person. We've also reminded the students to be careful if they spot any strangers. Although the school is big, the student population is dense, yet no one has spotted any strangers even until now. Do you know what this means?"
Aaron shook his head.
Before Brenda could speak, Nora replied on her behalf. She said, "Barbarian is either a student or a teacher in the school."
Her one-liner was akin to a thunderous explosion in their ears.
Everyone looked at her in stunned disbelief.
Brenda nodded. She said, "Yes, Nora is right. I always thought that Barbarian was all brawn and no brains but it's only now that I've realized that he is actually very clever. No wonder he instantly disappeared the moment we found even a tiny lead on him all these years."
Nora, however, said, "There is another possibility, though."
Brenda looked at her. "What is it?"
In a low voice, Nora slowly answered, "Someone is helping Barbarian."
Spacey, the genius with the high IQ.
When Solo said just now that the other party had hackers on their side, she'd immediately thought of Spacey.
If Barbarian wasn't blindly acting in a reckless and foolhardy manner at the moment, then this meant that the highly intelligent Spacey must be giving him advice and guidance!
Spacey's IQ genes had been improved, so he must be highly intelligent.
