Johnson immediately reprimanded him.
"What do you mean by claiming the moral high ground? You youngsters come up with all sorts of reasonings and use an endless string of different terms.Back in our era, all we had was a passion for the department! If everyone stands back whenever something happens, how bleak would society become?!"
He didn't hold back at all when he reprimanded Morris and didn't show the respect that he should be to the acting director.
He was deliberately taking Morris down a notch in front of everyone.
He wanted everyone to know that even though Morris was the acting director of the special department, he still had the final say when it came to seniority! His words made Morris frown.
It didn't matter that he was reprimanded, but if Nora was the one being reprimanded...
He was about to say something when someone from the IT department suddenly ran over and shouted, "Damon, Damon! This is terrible!"
Damon was taken aback.
Everyone turned around in unison and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man gasped for breath and replied, "Our network was hacked into again a moment ago.The other party has sent us a message."
Damon asked, "What did they say?"
"lam Q, not Y."
Damon:"??"
Everyone:"??"
Stunned by the news, everyone looked at Nora, only to see her standing there calmly...If she told them that she had asked Q to help, the group of them would definitely continue to whine.
Thus, she had decided that she would just use her actions to prove it instead.
She didn't give much of an explanation, but Brenda stepped forward and said, "I get it now! It's you who got Q to help, Nora!"
Everyone looked at her in unison.
Brenda explained, "When we were tracking Trueman the other time, Damon wasn't skilled enough to do it.It was the hacker whom Nora had approached who pinpointed the hotel as his location! That hacker must have been Q, right? The person who fixed the network bug for us free of charge last night was also Q!"
The whole corridor fell silent.
Damon's eyes widened and he looked at Nora in surprise.
"Were you really the one who helped us?"
Then, he turned back to Ruth in confusion.
"But didn’t you say that it was you who got Y to help?"
Ruth clenched her fists.She hadn't expected things to turn around this way! However, she'd already thought that this might happen when she falsely claimed the credit, so she managed to remain calm and composed.
She even acted surprised and said, "Y said he would help, though! Wasn't it Y who did it?"
After speaking, she deliberately took out her cell phone and took a look.
"I’ll ask him."
She went to the side and sent a message.
Ruth: ‘Wasn't it you who helped us fix the network bug last night?’
Y: ‘No.When I infiltrated the system after agreeing to help, I found that the bug had already been fixed, but I forgot to tell you about it”
Ruth sighed and said, "Y has always been unsociable and eccentric, and he rarely speaks.He didn't inform me about it.Moreover, the moment I arrived at the office today, Damon said that the bug had been fixed, so I assumed it was Y...Ms.Smith, I formally apologize for what I said just now! You should still speak up if something happens again next time, though.The department is full of men, so their thoughts are all very straightforward.They won't get it if you don't say anything."
Tsk.
She was accusing Nora of not being genuine enough now.
Nora looked at her and asked, "Are you very familiar with ¥?"
To think she even had him on her Messenger! Even she didn't have Y as a contact on Messenger.The chat window in the Hacker Alliance was her only way of contacting Y! Ruth was too much! The rest, however, felt enlightened.
"I knew it, it's just a misunderstanding!"
Elsewhere, Brenda, who had already walked out of the crowd, stared at Ruth.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly beeped.
She looked down and saw a message from Justin: 'Have you asked her? Why is Nora ignoring me?’ Brenda took out her cell phone and sent Justin an audio message”
"It ‘s all Y's fault, Justin.If I were Nora, I would also be really mad! Someone named Ruth, who joined the department recently, said that she's friends with Y and embarrassed Nora! Quick, go and ask him why he has a friend like that!"
Justin:"?"
To think that was why Nora was angry! In that case, he would have to explain things properly to the public!
