Hello, I saw a lot of threads for the japanese keyword hack and I tried to follow them but with no success. I will summarize my issue I am facing now. So we found that one of our wordpress websites was infected with the japanese keyword hack - 7000 indexed urls with gibberish japanese writing. We've cleaned the infected files we hired an audit company to inspect as well. All is cleared on the website. Confirmed by the audit company, wordfence and malcare. All the hacked urls are now opening 404 page and the last crawl date on all of them is 8th of March so it's been around a month and the urls are still showing in search results. The urls are 100% not in sitemap and also no external links showing in search console -> links. We have not tried to manually removed, this was suggested by the audit company. We are not blocking anything in our robots.txt or making 301 for all 404 pages to let's say the homepage.

What else can we do, we were patiently waiting for those urls to disappear from search result but so far no success.
PS: It is so bad that in fact Google is aware of this spam, hack and it still takes so long to resolve. Maybe we are doing something wrong.

Could you please let me know what should we de index? You mean to manually remove the links from Search Console? And also what should we disavow? We do not have any backlinks pointing to our website? Thanks in advance.

Yes I know how to remove the links manually but it is at temporary isn't it? Or if my URLs are not crawled since 8th of march this will be the proper solution? Btw I saw that there is an option to remove links in bulk "Remove all URLs with this prefix" Could you please let me know how can I use this? The url structure is as follows: https://www.mysite.com/jakssioqowiiaoi - but the symbols at the end are different. Thanks

Honestly I do not know what you are trying to say or you are simply not reading what I am writing.

As I understand - you no need these URLs.
So URLs will be removed from search - and never indexed again, because they simply will not exists anymore.
