But he was wearing a bright floral suit. It didn’t match the serious equipment behind him at all.

“You are…”

“Oh, let me introduce myself first. I’m Benedict Lamb. This is my brother, Wesley Lamb. He thinks his name sounds lame, so he always tells people to call him Knight.

“Ha! Don’t you think he sounds a little childish? He never grows up. By the way, my codename is Bacchus.”

Benedict casually ruffled Wesley’s hair.

Wesley didn’t say anything.

Damn!

Is this reallymybrother?

He justturnedand soldoutallmyidentitylikethat!

The members of Comet Squad were all stunned.

Childish?

You’reactingwaymorechildishthanWesley!

“In 2001, two hackers managed to resist Motrar’s cyber attack by themselves,” someone said. “Back then, Cetherland’s networks and systems were still primitive.

“They also planted a worm that crashed Motrar’s firewall. It took a month to fix all the follow- up holes.

“One hacker used the codename Bacchus. The other had no codename, so people called him Mystery X.

“After that fight, those two Cetherland hackers shocked the world. Then they vanished from the public eye very quickly. Nobody heard from them again.”

Alfie said in surprise, “2001? It’s 2030 now. That’s 29 years ago.”

Jarrett’s eyes lit up. “Oh! I remember! The Cetherland Hacker Chronicles recorded those two hackers who appeared like comets and disappeared.”

Astrid replied, “Ican’t believe they were recruited by the state to head the National Cyber Security Center … and they’re twin brothers!”

Zach added, “They look so young.”

Zach hit the point.

If normal people saw these two on the street, they’d never guess they were in their 50s. They’d think the men were about 20, maybe taking the SAT.

Benedict’s mouth curved into a small smile. “I’m surprised the Queen still remembers us. We’re honored.”

“If any Cetherlander forgets you two, they have no right to call themselves Cetherlanders,” Tilda said.

“Because of you two, our country’s computer industry exploded. Talent kept coming.

“In a way, you two hit back like heroes. The butterfly effect from that time shaped my team and me.”

Tilda gave Benedict and Wesley the highest praise.

Cetherland’s internet history, more or less, started from its great achievements. Now they sit at the highest table of the National Cyber Security Center. It’s the state’s medal for heroes.

“You saying that really flatters us,” Benedict said.

“Young people are better now. Back then, we noticed the Hotel Morloss incidenttoo.

“But we couldn’t find the signal transmitter and break in like your Comet Squad/did. We couldn’t crack the hotel’s network from the inside in time.

“We’re old now. We’re past our prime. Wesley, don’t you think we should give more chan the young?”

“Fine, Benedict. You tell them yourself.”

Wesley rolled his eyes.

He stood and gave his seat to Benedict.

“I only pointed out some of your flaws. Are you sulking because of that?

“Queen, don’t mind him. He never changes–still a kid at heart, just like those punks. Ha!”

Benedict sat where Wesley had been. His expression changed in an instant. But a faint smile stayed on his lips.

Even with a soft, baby face, the power he radiated was undeniable.

Jarrett and the others straightened up when they felt it.

“Next … let’s talk terms.”

Tilda nodded. “Start.”

“We have a case. I want you to destroy the target’s network system in one day. Erase all the evidence.

“You can talk with your team first to decide if you’ll take the case…

“No need. We’ll take it now!”

Tilda’s answer was decisive. No hesitation.

“Yes. If we get the chance, we must take it!”

“If we finish this case, does that meet your conditions for our action?” Jarrett and the others asked.

“Of course,” Benedict said.

That settled it.

Tilda notified Manfred and quickly led Comet Squad back to Slosa.
