Nie Bing's "berserk mode" ignited a frenzy in the bullet comments.
[Who knew Goddess Nie Bing had such a fierce side? What a contrast!]
[I actually find this more realistic. What's wrong with that? Do goddesses not poop?]
[OMG, the example above is way too vivid! I'm eating right now...]
[I just want to know how advanced Cifera's hacking skills are to make Goddess Nie Bing lose her composure like that!]
[Hmm, probably about ten stories high.]
In the broadcast studio, Nie Junfeng watched the bullet comments roast his daughter, shaking his head and chuckling helplessly.
My dear daughter, this is a live broadcast! I know you're deeply passionate about computer technology, but could you please maintain some semblance of decorum in front of the national audience?
How are you ever going to find a boyfriend acting like this?!
For the first time, Nie Junfeng regretted letting Nie Bing participate in the show.
But if Little Bingbing hadn't joined, how else would he have been able to compare her skills and truly understand how powerful Cifera's hacking abilities are?
Hmm, looking at it that way...
My decision to have Nie Bing participate in the show was absolutely brilliant!
Nie Bing had already entered a state of hyperfocus, completely oblivious to how others perceived her.
"Cifera, your technical skills surpass mine. I trust you with the tech station. I'm going out to personally eliminate this troublemaker!"
"No problem. Just give me a moment—I'll pull up this guy's information right away."
With that, Cifera resumed her rapid-fire keystrokes.
The computers at the Pursuit Team's tech station were connected to the public security information network, granting them access to social surveillance cameras and a vast database of personal records.
Based on the victim's report sent by the program, Cifera immediately accessed surveillance footage from cameras near the crime scene.
Up to this point, Cifera's speed was the only remarkable difference between her and other technicians.
But what she did next left everyone stunned.
She simultaneously opened footage from dozens of cameras, tiling the miniaturized views across the entire monitor.
Then, she set all the footage to maximum playback speed and began observing.
Clearly, she intended to watch footage from every nearby camera at the fastest possible speed, all at once.
But how could anyone possibly manage that?
The surveillance monitor screens were densely packed and flickered incessantly, making it almost unbearable to even look at, let alone discern anything clearly.
How could anyone possibly extract useful information from this chaos?
Yet Cifera showed everyone that it could be done—and with remarkable ease.
She didn't just watch; her hands danced across the controls, rewinding one feed, pausing another. Gradually, more and more screens were highlighted.
Soon, everyone realized Cifera had locked onto a young man wearing overalls.
In one frame, he clutched a uniquely shaped basketball, sprinting forward with several children chasing after him.
"That's him," Cifera declared.
"I've mapped out his initial escape route and projected potential alternative paths. I'm sending the data to everyone's phones now."
"Simultaneously, I'll continue to monitor the cameras along his route, updating you all in real-time as the situation evolves."
"You can move out now."
"..."
At that moment, the on-site experts fell silent, while the Bullet Comments flooded the screen like a blizzard:
[Holy shit! What the hell just happened?!]
[How long has it been? Two minutes, tops?]
[Seriously? I saw all these blurry images flashing by, and she's already locked onto the target and compiled all the data?!]
[I've watched "The Brain," and even the top contestants with incredible observational skills reviewed images one by one. This is beyond absurd!]
[Is Cifera some kind of god?!]
The experts at the venue felt the impact even more profoundly than the bullet comments, especially Lin Zhiyuan, who had participated in "The Brain."
Having competed in similar surveillance footage challenges, he fully grasped the sheer absurdity of what Cifera had just accomplished.
"If Cifera isn't pulling our leg, her vision is utterly astonishing. Could she actually have a cat's eyes?" Lin Zhiyuan exclaimed, even joking as he launched into an impromptu science lesson:
"As everyone knows, cats possess exceptional dynamic vision, arguably the best in the animal kingdom.
"Their extreme sensitivity to even the slightest movements allows them to precisely track prey moving as slowly as 4 millimeters per second."
"Their sensitivity to minute movements far surpasses human capabilities. Even at very short distances, they can detect the slightest shifts in objects.
"Moreover, their eyes process images incredibly fast! They can process up to 100 frames per second, while humans typically process around 24 frames per second.
"This means that to a cat's eyes, rapidly moving objects appear almost in slow motion. They can capture the trajectory of movement with exceptional clarity, allowing for lightning-fast reactions.
"Even more astonishing is their wide field of vision. Each eye has a visual angle of up to 250 degrees, with a binocular overlap of 120 degrees, enabling them to simultaneously observe a vast area for dynamic objects.
"If Cifera truly possesses cat-like eyes, then her current actions make perfect sense!
"Hey Cifera, are you secretly a cat demon or something?"
Hearing Lin Zhiyuan's teasing, Cifera playfully gazed into his eyes and chuckled, "Well, Little Lin, why don't you check for yourself? But I can't guarantee I won't kill you to keep my secret safe~"
"...Uh, never mind, never mind! Just joking, ha ha..."
Though everyone knew Lin Zhiyuan was just kidding, his explanation had clearly given them a much clearer understanding of just how terrifying Cifera's vision truly was.
This girl possessed eyes with vision comparable to a cat's. Even without becoming a magician or hacker, she could easily excel in any field, reaching the very top.
Her talent was so extraordinary that it inspired awe and envy, yet it was impossible to resent her for it.
China was truly blessed to have such a super-genius—a boon not just for the nation, but for all of humanity!
Liu Shanhe downed another cup of tea and declared:
"Alright, save your praise for Cifera for later. Although only one competitor has been reported so far, it's clear that Cifera can handle the technical side perfectly on her own.
"Therefore, I've decided to deploy the rest of you to use this 'early bird' as a training exercise for coordinated teamwork!
"If more competitors are reported during the operation, we'll adjust our strategy dynamically based on the situation.
"Listen up, everyone! We'll divide our Pursuit Team into three squads:
"Squad 1: Led by myself, Liu Shanhe, and Wang Lei.
"Squad 2: Led by Zhang Hong and Feng Chiyu.
"Squad 3: Led by Nie Bing and Lin Zhiyuan.
"Gather your Pursuers immediately and deploy at once! Is that clear?!"
"Understood!"
After everyone had filed downstairs, Liu Shanhe, bringing up the rear, smiled at Cifera and said, "The next phase of intelligence gathering and coordination rests on your shoulders, Little Cifera. Give it your all!"
"I guarantee mission success!"
"Good!"
Once everyone had left, Cifera's expression swiftly shifted from serious and focused to relaxed and carefree.
She retrieved a bottle of fresh milk from the office refrigerator and took a sip as she watched the overalls-clad contestant on the monitor muttering to himself:
"He dared to act without waiting for my intel? Giving up all the rewards?
"Fine. I'll use you as my guinea pig. It'll also show the Pursuit Team how reliable I am.
"Besides, it's a happy accident. At least Little Bingbing voluntarily surrendered the tech station position. Saves me the trouble."
Clearly, Cifera was deliberately speaking aloud for the live stream audience. She had mastered the art of creating compelling broadcast content.
Watching Cifera unveil her true nature as a "criminal," the viewers in the live stream who had been immersing themselves in the Pursuit Team's perspective couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Meanwhile, Cifera's supporters were ecstatic.
Controlling everything, manipulating her prey like puppets—wasn't this exactly what cats excelled at?
This cat-and-mouse game was getting more thrilling by the minute!
