Chapter 851
Chapter 851 He Doesn’t Have the Ability
Finn was ready to take action. Eliminating a traitor in the organization was only a piece of cake for him.
Just as he was about to make a move, the man in black suddenly spoke up. Hold on.”
Upon the command, Finn immediately stopped his action and followed the order obediently.
Although he didn’t do anything to Ronin, he didn’t understand his boss’s order. So, he turned around and asked the man in the black robe, “Sir, Ronin has betrayed us. Why don’t you order to kill him?”
The man in the black robe spoke slowly, his voice low and icy. “Не doesn’t have the ability for that.”
Ronin raised his hand and saluted the man in black, then smiled and complimented, “Sir, you truly live up to your reputation. Impressive!”
The man in the black robe ignored Ronin and said to Finn, “Take him away!”
After dragging Ronin away, Finn went back to the side of the man in the black robe. “Sir, why do you think Ronin didn’t betray us?”
“He’s not that capable!” the man in the black robe responded.
He knew how difficult the experiment was, and Ronin definitely didn’t have the ability to tamper with data, so it shouldn’t be him who did it.
He not only knew Ronin’s abilities but also understood Catherine’s abilities and her style of doing things.
Catherine was meticulous in her work. He knew better than anyone that it was totally possible for her to arrange two sets of data on the computer.
Ronin could only steal one copy. The other one was Catherine’s last resort to save her life. That was just how Catherine rolled.
He knew that Catherine wouldn’t trust anyone in this world.
Finn didn’t like Ronin. In his eyes, if it weren’t for Ronin, Grayson would not have betrayed them. Although he was a spy assigned to Grayson, over the years, Grayson’s kindness toward him had always been remembered by him.
He couldn’t betray the boss, but he could sure as hell hate Ronin. “Sir, since Ronin is of no use to us now, why don’t we just get rid of him and save ourselves the trouble.”
The man in the black robe turned his head slightly, shooting a cold look at Finn.
Scared the heck out of him, Finn immediately dropped to his knees and obediently apologized.
His little schemes couldn’t fool the man in the black, but the man in the black wasn’t planning to execute him yet for now. “Leave me alone.”
Like he was pardoned, Finn lowered his head and stepped back to leave.
The bus went straight to the dorm building where Catherine lived. As soon as the bus stopped, Catherine opened her eyes.
Marshall wanted to wake her up, but Catherine didn’t give him a chance at all. “Are we arrived yet?”
“Yeah, Catherine, you’ve been working hard these days. Go back and rest. Get a good night’s sleep. We’ll talk tomorrow. “Marshall felt sorry for her and didn’t want to put too much pressure on her.
Catherine turned and looked out the window, only to realize their car was parked at the entrance of the dorm building.
She politely thanked Ultan. Without his permission, the security guard at Styre University wouldn’t have let the car in. “Thanks, Mr. Farrell!”
“It’s okay. Just go back and rest as you were told by Marshall,” replied Ultan.
Catherine nodded and said goodbye to the two of them before getting out of the car.
She had just gotten out of the car when she saw Branden standing not far away and waiting for her.
Originally planning to go upstairs, Catherine turned around and walked toward Branden.
“Why are you waiting for me here?” asked Catherine.
“I was expecting to pick you up at the certification meeting, but when I got there, I heard that you had already left, “said Branden.
Because of the accident, they didn’t really go through the verification process, so they did get out a lot earlier than expected.
Catherine didn’t let Branden know she went to take a break the last time.
After getting the news, Branden guessed that Catherine would come back to the campus, so he went straight to the campus.
His car was naturally much faster than a bus, so he arrived at the campus ahead of Catherine.
Catherine didn’t tell Branden about the leaked experiment report, knowing Branden must have known it.
Branden didn’t even ask Catherine what was going on. He just grabbed her hand and took her back to the apartment. “Let’s go. Let’s head back and take a rest.”
Catherine had slept on the bus, and now she was feeling pretty good. ” Okay. I’ll go find Zobber later in the afternoon.”
“Alright!” Branden readily agreed.
Soon, news of Catherine’s certification issue spread within their circle.
Upon hearing this news, Zobber instantly exploded with anger, wanting to fight with the enemies. “Bastards! How dare they steal the experiment from Catherine? Are they asking for trouble? If I don’t find this thief today, I will not be Zobber.”
Seeing her trying to leave, Withal and Paxton immediately got up to stop her.
Paxton came to Zobber to discuss something and happened to hear this news. “Stay calm.”
Zobber pushed Paxton away and glared at him angrily. “How can I stay calm? Those guys are bullying Catherine. How can I stay calm?”
She was so mad that Paxton couldn’t even stand to look at her.
He stopped Zobber and asked her a question that she couldn’t answer, Have you ever thought about who could easily steal data from Miss Swann’s computer without getting caught?”
Zobber was completely stunned. They all knew how strong Catherine was in terms of computer skills.
Hacking into Catherine’s computer was harder than climbing Mount Everest, not to mention taking out information without being caught.
“Could it be that Professor Winston Warner figured out Catherine’s security settings?” Zobber asked.
“Nah!” Withal immediately shut down Zobber’s guess. “Professor Winston Warner is indeed very skilled in the field of computers, but stealing data from Catherine’s computer without getting caught, he can’t do it.”
“If it weren’t for Winston, who else could do it? I can’t think of anyone else who could pull it off,” said Zobber.
“Is it possible that the culprit is someone Catherine knows?” Paxton suddenly chimed in with his opinion.
Only people who were familiar with Catherine knew about her habits, and then, based on those habits, they could crack the security locks she set.
This person not only needed to understand Catherine but also needed to have very high talent in computers and must be a top-notch hacker.
Thanks to Paxton’s reminder, the scope of their search was instantly narrowed down. Withal and Zobber couldn’t help but picture a person’s face in their heads.
Zobber shook her head vigorously, trying to shake off the figure in her mind. “No way! It couldn’t be him.”
Withal furrowed his brows and had an unusually embarrassed expression.
Paxton was different from them. He was almost certain of the suspect’s identity now. Seeing that Zobber was still not convinced, he straight up questioned her, “Why do you think it can’t be Ronin?”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“He would never betray Catherine.
Ronin is raised by Catherine herself. He’s like Catherine’s younger brother.” No matter what, Zobber didn’t believe that Ronin would betray Catherine.
“If in a normal situation, Ronin probably wouldn’t, but have you thought about how long he’s been captured? What kind of torture and harsh interrogation is he going to face during this time?” Paxton understood human nature so well. Even the toughest guys had to obediently follow his orders under his gentle persuasion combined with iron methods.
Nobody could guarantee that Ronin could withstand the severe torture.
