Back at his Beverly Hills estate after leaving the police station, Chen Mo took off his coat, and a servant in the living room quickly came over, holding a letter with the IRS logo in gold foil.

"Sir, an urgent letter from the IRS."

Chen Mo glanced at it and casually tossed it to the ghost beside him.

The ghost opened the envelope, glanced at it, and a disdainful smile appeared on his lips. He spoke in Chinese.

"Boss, it's nothing, just a tax audit. You don't need to worry at all, I'll handle it."

"You spent little time in the United States and have no outstanding bank accounts."

The IRS doesn't care whether the money won from those underground boxing matches is legal or not; they only care about the taxes.

As long as you file and pay taxes according to the rules, the tax authorities will not find any fault with you.

As for investigating illegal gambling, I'll smooth things over with a few bribes and get things done with the higher-ups in the relevant departments. The matter will be completely suppressed without even a ripple.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with amusement.

"I used to think that America only cared about the law and not about human feelings."

"No, no, no!"

The ghost chuckled as if it had heard a joke.

"American law is a shackle used to restrain ordinary citizens. As for the top echelons, they only ever talk about exchanging benefits and personal relationships. As long as the bargaining chips are right, there's nothing they can't handle."

"I'll leave this to you."

"It is my pleasure to serve you!"

Sure enough, after paying the taxes, the IRS withdrew the case within half a day, without any further inquiries, and there was no further news.

Although a large sum of money was spent on taxes, with advanced stock trading skills, this money will eventually be doubled back from the US stock market.

Chen Mo thought the matter was over, but he never expected that the group of wealthy people hiding in the shadows had no intention of stopping there.

When the IRS approach failed, they resorted to an even more ruthless tactic.

That evening, Chen Mo was having dinner with Ghost when his phone suddenly vibrated.

He opened it and saw a notification from Citibank that his account had been frozen. The text message was cold and impersonal, without any further explanation.

"Your account has been found to have unusual transaction activity, which is suspected of violating anti-money laundering regulations. It is currently temporarily frozen and will be unfrozen after the investigation is completed."

Without prior notice, without providing any evidence, and without even a reasonable explanation, an account worth billions of dollars was frozen without any room for negotiation.

Chen Mo ran his fingertips over the phone screen, his eyes gradually turning cold, the last trace of a smile on his face vanishing completely, and the atmosphere around him becoming frighteningly oppressive.

From the initial malicious summons by the police, to the unscrupulous framing of him for drug possession, to the use of the IRS to exert pressure, and now even the direct use of bank connections to forcibly freeze his assets.

This group of people hid behind the rules from beginning to end, treading on the gray areas of the law, manipulating and provoking him time and time again.

They thought that with their power and connections, they could manipulate him at will, and that these so-called rules were their invincible shield to oppress others.

Chen Mo wasn't really that concerned about the money being frozen; what truly angered him was the group's greedy attitude and their arrogance in thinking they were in control.

With a slight squeeze of his fingertips, the chopsticks in his hand were instantly crushed into powder.

"If they want to play, then I'll play along to the very end!"

"They like to use the rules to play dirty tricks, so I won't use any rules. I'll settle this score with them in my own way."

Seeing the surging anger in Chen Mo's eyes, Ghost knew that the boss was truly enraged. Without asking further questions, he simply nodded.

"Boss, please feel free to tell me what you need me to do."

"I'm going to hack into their phones and computers, expose their dirty laundry, collect all the evidence of their crimes, and short their listed companies to make them pay back double the amount they owe me. I'm going to make them pay a heavy price."

Chen Mo spoke in a flat tone.

At this moment, he already had a complete operational plan in mind.

He needs money, and right now he can only borrow it from Ghost.

It requires advanced hacking skills, but that will only take a little time and can be achieved soon;

You also need an account that cannot be frozen, ideally by hacking into the Swiss bank's system and creating an invisible account that cannot be monitored.

It also needs to be a program that can operate thousands of stock accounts with a single click, appearing and disappearing without a trace, leaving absolutely no trace.

Chen Mo opened the system panel and his gaze fell on the [Hacking Techniques] section, where the current proficiency level was displayed as Advanced.

At its advanced level, it is sufficient to deal with ordinary network protection and can complete basic operations without leaving a trace.

But to achieve perfection without leaving a trace, to simultaneously control thousands of accounts, to move freely in the global financial network, to breach the tight firewalls of Swiss banks, and to do so without leaving the slightest clue, is far from enough.

He didn't want a lucky break, but absolute certainty, so that no one could find a trace of it, and that those wealthy people would never know who was manipulating them until their deaths.

Only by mastering hacking techniques to a high level can one achieve absolutely seamless operations and make all fund transfers and stock transactions completely invisible.

"Ghost, lend me fifty million US dollars."

Chen Mo turned to look at the ghost, his tone crisp.

"It's not a free loan; I'll give you double the profit afterward."

Without a second thought, Ghost pulled out his phone to transfer the money.

"Boss, your account?"

"I will send you the bank account details tomorrow. Go back and wait for my instructions."

"OK."

The ghost got up and left.

Chen Mo entered the study, where an ultra-thin laptop was placed in front of him.

His gaze was intensely focused, and he mobilized his exceptional learning talent to frantically improve his hacking skills.

Hacking proficiency +100

Hacking proficiency +100

Hacking proficiency +100

……

System notifications flooded his mind, and his proficiency level skyrocketed at a visible rate. Chen Mo was completely immersed in the world of hacking techniques, working through the night without rest.

The sky outside the window gradually changed from pitch black to a pale white, and then to full light.

At the same time, a notification popped up on the system panel!

[Hacking Techniques (Maximum Level)]

[Grade: Life Skill]

[Effects: Network attack and defense capabilities +200%, vulnerability discovery probability +200%, data tracking efficiency +200%, trace erasure speed +200%, reverse analysis speed +200%]

Operation traces are automatically overwritten, IP addresses are automatically redirected and randomized paths are generated, and physical location is automatically obfuscated to any node globally. As long as the host doesn't want to be discovered, no one can find them!]

Become!

A master hacker, invisible across the entire internet!

Chen Mo's lips curled into a cold smile as his fingers flew across the keyboard, his fingertips moving so fast they left afterimages, typing out a series of dazzling lines of code.

He first breached the Swiss bank's firewall, creating a completely invisible, multi-layered encrypted account that could not be traced by anyone.

Send the account to Ghost, and in less than a minute, fifty million US dollars will be deposited into your account.

Without pausing, Chen Mo traced the identities of Dilson and other wealthy individuals, uncovering their offshore companies and shell companies.

Those corporate firewalls and encrypted servers that seem impregnable to others are as thin as paper in the face of sophisticated hacker techniques, easily punctured.
