Chapter 233: Do Nothing?

Li Ran’s focus on this person was purely because of Zhou Liu.

Zhou Liu had never asked her to do anything for him before. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to ask Li Ran for help to keep an eye on a contestant, so of course, Li Ran would be more concerned.

Hence, Li Ran silently took out her phone and recorded the entire video of Mo Shu participating in the competition.

Mo Shu was sitting on the pillar in the center of the stage. This position could be said to be the center of attention. Everyone was staring at him, but he didn’t panic at all. He looked calm and composed. After standing in his position, he checked his computer and exercised his fingers while waiting for the order to start the competition.

“Start the countdown!”

After the emcee gave the order, all the contestants immediately moved their fingers and typed on the keyboard rapidly. The entire venue was very quiet, so quiet that only the sound of their fingers tapping on the keyboard could be heard.

However, Mo Shu’s reaction was different from everyone else’s. He was actually browsing the page code quickly.

He only had half the time of other people, which meant that he only had two and a half minutes. However, he spent half a minute browsing the page.

Everyone couldn’t help but feel anxious for him. Some impatient people even gritted their teeth and whispered, “Hurry up and enter the code! What are you still looking at?!”

Even Li Ran, who was an outsider, couldn’t help but feel nervous for Mo Shu. Her hand that was holding her cell phone tightly began to sweat and even tremble.

Li Ci might have noticed that Li Ran’s hand was trembling, so he reached out a hand to help her stabilize her cell phone as he whispered, “Hold it steadily.”

Then the two of them looked at Mo Shu.

When there was only a minute and a half left, Mo Shu suddenly stopped browsing.

When his movements stopped, everyone tensed up and couldn’t help but guess the intention of his every move. Did he suddenly stop now because it was too difficult and he wanted to give up?

Even the other contestants in the competition looked at him.

These contestants had all participated in the second round of the competition, so of course they knew how difficult it was to break through the firewall. Mo Shu could actually make that person the fastest to break through the firewall with just a few simple instructions, so it could be seen how impressive Mo Shu was.

The firewall of the third stage was even more difficult. Many people no longer had the confidence to break through this firewall, so they looked at Mo Shu. Perhaps they could gain some inspiration from his actions.

Unexpectedly, this guy still had the time to dawdle. Time was limited to begin with. Instead of operating immediately, he looked at the code first. What a strange person.

Those who had high hopes for Mo Shu couldn’t help but mock him. They felt that at this moment, he had already exhausted all his tricks. That was why he didn’t enter any code or do anything.

Some people around them had already begun to discuss. Although their voices were very soft, they still broke the silence.

As soon as one person started discussing, there would be a second and a third person. In just a few seconds, the venue became noisy again.

Even the emcee couldn’t help but walk to Mo Shu’s side. She blocked the microphone and asked softly, “Mo Shu, why aren’t you starting? It’s almost time.”

Mo Shu just smiled and turned to look at the crowd.

His expression was still very calm, even calmer than when the competition had just begun. He didn’t look troubled at all.

He scanned everyone seriously, as if he was looking for someone.

Even Shi Xiao began to think that he was just an arrogant person who liked to bluff.

Shi Xiao couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. So the person who designed such an outstanding piece of work was only so-so.

After Mo Shu glanced around the venue, his gaze landed on a man in his forties wearing sunglasses in the corridor on the second floor.

Mo Shu sneered, his eyes full of mockery and provocation.

His lips parted slightly as he mouthed, “You lost..”
