You're Out Daddy

Chapter 945 Cryptographic Key

Looking at Benjamin's resolute demeanor, Kenneth knew that if he didn't take his son along, the boy would surely

find other ways. If that happened, Benjamin's safety wouldn't be guaranteed.

With that thought, he lowered his gaze. “You can go with Anthony.”

“Tony doesn't need my help at all. He can handle it on his own, not to mention he has people from the dark web. My

presence would be pointless,” Benjamin said.

Kenneth narrowed his eyes.

“Daddy, I know I'm young and can't do much, but don't worry, I'll just watch. I promise not to cause any trouble,”

Benjamin assured, emphasizing each word.

Kenneth looked at him for a long time. Perhaps he understood his son too well, which was why he compromised.

Hence, Kenneth nodded. “All right. No problem.”

Benjamin was slightly taken aback. “Really?”

“Really.” Kenneth nodded. “I understand that actions speak louder than words. If that's the case, then let's do it

together.”

A glimmer of light gradually lit up in Benjamin's eyes.

“All right, you should get ready now. We'll set off together tonight,” said Kenneth.

Benjamin looked at him and nodded emphatically.

Night was drawing near.

The number of people in the castle was steadily increasing, and the atmosphere seemed to grow more tense.

The people downstairs were all dressed up and ready to go.

At that moment, Dave looked at Anthony. “Later, let Mike take you to the base. Everyone there is ready.” As he

spoke, he pulled out something that looked like a card from his pocket. “This is for you.”

Anthony frowned. “What is this?”

“The cryptographic key to the dark web,” Dave said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of Mike, Luke, Alexia, and others on the side all changed.

“Dave.” Mike looked at Dave. His brows furrowed in concern.

Anthony being allowed to enter the base and used the dark web was already shocking to people. Yet, Dave was

handing the boy the cryptographic key to the dark web. It was the equivalent of handing over half of the

organization to a kid.

If the dark web were to be breached, all the base's secrets would be exposed to the world, and the consequences

would be unimaginable.

Anthony, being a regular netizen, certainly understood that.

Looking up at Dave, he seemed slightly surprised. “Mr. Dave...”

Dave looked at him. “Take it.”

Anthony found the situation somewhat tricky as he stared at the key.

“What's the matter? Afraid to take it?” Dave asked him.

“No...”

“Take it then,” Dave insisted.

After much hesitation, Anthony finally took it from Dave's hand.

At that moment, Dave, who was standing by, spoke up. “I know what you're all thinking, but there's something I

need to tell you. The dark web was attacked once before, and I'm sure some of you know about it. The one behind

this was Vermillion Base. Their people infiltrated our base and left a set of variable numbers in our system to use

against us. The person who discovered this was Anthony!” As he spoke, Dave glanced at the child standing nearby.

“If it weren't for him, our base would have faced a disaster these past few days. Therefore, what we're doing now is

not just for Kenneth, but also for our base as well as our future lives and careers.” Dave spoke emphasized each

word.

Upon hearing that, everyone looked at each other.

“Is there anything else you all want to say?” Dave asked.

Snapping back to reality, Mike immediately shook his head.

It was not that he didn't trust Anthony. It was just that he felt that would break the rules they had previously set.

However, rules didn't matter when lives were on the line.

Presenting a united front was what matters most.

Seeing Mike shaking his head, Luke also spoke up. “I have no objections!”

“I don't have any either!” said Alexia softly.

It was not that she trusted Anthony. Rather, she had more faith in Kenneth, and that his child couldn't be too far off

from him.

Seeing that everyone had agreed, Dave grinned. He then lowered his gaze to Anthony. “Are you at ease now?”

Anthony was not one to be overly dramatic. He understood well that it concerned the survival of DX and Natasha.

Thus, he didn't hold back any longer.

“Mr. Dave, rest assured, the task will be completed perfectly by tomorrow!” Anthony said assuredly.

Dave looked at him, smiling wordlessly, and affectionately reached out to pat the boy's head.

Just then, Kenneth and Benjamin descended the stairs.

“What are you talking about?” asked Kenneth.

The moment they saw him, several people greeted him. “Boss!”

“Kenneth!” A few people greeted him.

Kenneth nodded, his gaze sweeping over them. “Tonight, I'm afraid you'll have to work hard!”

“Boss, your business is our business.”

“Yeah!” several people said.

Kenneth looked at them before his gaze shifted to Alexia, who was standing to the side.

At that moment, she was also gazing intently at him. Her initially tranquil eyes were reignited with a bright light

when she noticed his gaze was focusing on her.

Even if she knew it was impossible for them to be a couple because he already had someone he deeply loved, it

didn't matter to her.

No one could tell her that she couldn't secretly harbor feelings for him.

Still, it wasn't like she wanted to do anything special. She just wanted to be able to meet him.

Upon seeing her, Kenneth frowned. Nonchalantly, he glanced at her before looking away as if he hadn't seen her at

all.

Alexia furrowed her eyebrows upon seeing that.

She knew Kenneth did it on purpose. Even though she felt uncomfortable, she quickly collected herself.

All she wanted was to do something for him, repay him, and see him. It wasn't anything much. That was all she

needed. As for how he treated her, it didn't matter to her.

With those thoughts in mind, Alexia took a deep breath.

At that moment, Dave glanced at Kenneth before at the boy with reddish eyes, his eyebrows furrowing in concern.

“Kenneth?”

Kenneth spoke up. “Dave, find someone to accompany Benjamin. Keep him far away!”

Anthony also noticed the redness in Benjamin's eyes. He understood Benjamin just as Benjamin understood him. He

doesn't cry easily, so what brought tears to his eyes?

With that thought, Anthony knitted his eyebrows. Then, he looked up at Kenneth. “Daddy? Are you taking Benjamin

with you?”

Kenneth looked at him and nodded.

Anthony's brows furrowed. Just as he was about to say something, Benjamin interjected, “Tony, I have the same

idea as you. No one can stop me!”

For a moment, Anthony didn't know what to say. Clearly, Benjamin's words had already revealed what he knew.

“Still, it's dangerous for you!” said Anthony.

“Daddy already said it, didn't he? I'll stay far away. I won't get close.”

“But—”

“If you were in my shoes, you'll definitely want to go too, won't you? I know I can't make much of a difference, but if

I don't go, I won't be satisfied,” Benjamin muttered, choking up as he spoke these words. However, before anyone

else noticed, he quickly composed himself.
