now, Flora only weighed about 4 pounds. Flora was nestled in Victoria’s hand, licking her fingers, with just a tiny white spot of a milk tooth showing.

After advancing to the semi–finals in the last hacker competition, she had started military training and now li compete.
The semi–finals were a multi–player attack and defense match. Participants were assigned opponents after clicking to accept the challenge during the competition period.
Coincidentally, Victoria’s randomly assigned group i
included her target–Shadow.
Seeing this familiar ID, she smiled, “First head–to–head encounter, let’s see how good you are,”
There were six people in the group, each with their own fortress. Punts were scored by effectively attacking the opponent’s fortress, and successful counterattacks also earned points.
Victoria quickly set up her firewall and then began a fierce attack, first targeting the weaker players. After gaining a points advantage, she intentionally surrounded Shadow.
Others noticed Victoria’s intention and joined her in attacking Shadow, allowing her to leverage their efforts and take a large chunk of Shadow’s points
But Shadow wasn’t easily defeated. He quickly counterattacked, and while Victoria managed to escape unscathed, the others weren’t so lucky and had their points taken by Shadow.
In the end, Victoria took first place in the group, with Shadow coming in second.
Shadow looked at the top–ranked “X” and pondered, Why does it feel like this X is targeting me? No way, in the group stage, everyone is an opponent. I must be overthinking it

Upexpectedly, Shadow was currently in Sunbaven, and very close to Nexus College!
In the previous life, Shadow appeared around Ella after some time and was very mysterious, never showing his face, only manipulating online trolls and monitoring public opinion. Victoria ad thought he wasn’t in Sunhaven, but it turned out he was so

Then she cleaned up her traces.
When Shadow exited the dark web and saw his desktop altered, who knew what his reaction would be.

hadn’t been received.
After checking, she saw that 24 hours had passed and Ethan still had 1 accepted the money,
Victoria thought, What’s going on? Why hasn’t he accepted it? Is he that busy?”
It was a minor issue, so Victoria didn’t give it any more thought.
Classes officially started.
Despite Flora meowing and acting all spoiled, Victoria didn’t take it to the classroom. Flora was too clingy and couldn t be spoiled!
In the classroom, Victoria sat alone in a row, and others avoided that row when they saw her.
Ella was surrounded by a few girls, chatting lively in the middle of the classroom.
Mira came in just before the bell, saw Victoria sitting high in the back row, and ran over with her canvas bag.
“Victoria, you’re here early. Where did you go after receiving the prize yesterday?”
Victoria replied, “I went home.”
Mira took a bite of bread and mumbled, “I woke up late and didn’t have breakfast. Do you want some?”
Victoria raised her hand to decline.
Mira smiled awkwardly. “Why didn’t you choose a single room? The teacher said there was one reserved for you, but it’s not as good as choosing your own. I wanted to live next to you.”
Victoria responded coolly, “I didn’t want to.”
Mira nodded, “Oh right, you’re from Sunaven, right? Aftern military training, you went straight home,”
Victoria felt she was talking too much and didn’t want to answer anymore.
Just then, the bell rang, and a short haired, bespectacled teacher walked into the classroom.
“Hello everyone, I’m your teacher for this class, Skylar Tate.”

A loud bang came from the podium, and Skylar sternly scolded, “The girl in the back! What did you say? If you want to shout so loudly, come up here and teach the class!”
Lila realized they were in class, nervously fidgeting with her fingers, and said in a low, aggrieved voice, Sorry, Ms. Tate, she cursed

Skylar knocked on the lectern and emphasized again. “You can talk quietly and play with your phones, but basic respect is required. Do not disrupt the class! No eating in class, and no shouting!”
Hearing this, Mira quickly stuffed her bread into her desk, not daring to eat anymore. Luckily, Skylar didn’t notice, or she would have been scolded too.
Victoria sneered and thought, Ella and her followers are such idiots. Do they even realize we’re in class?
