How to hide the extension number?

Sorry but this isn't possible i'm afraid.
You could play with the "TAG" option in the incomming call route. this will keep the number covered before answering the call.

Apparently you have one working whom the shriveling employees are afraid to speak with? No wait. You have hired a suspected serial killer who drowns his victims and the employees are too spooked to answer. Must be tough around the water cooler. Naturally I could be wrong but these types of requests are at least entertaining to read the reason and indeed entertaining for me to surmise.
So I ask why?

Use a phone with the "NoUser" logged in.
Then you still see the extension number !

Yes but it can't be dialled from another extension.
i'm with Cargoski, why do you need to do this?

I have two people: the secretary and the boss. Connections are routing to the boss only by the secretary (I used Hunt Group). The boss can ring employees up but he doesn't want them to see his number. When employees get to know the number of the director, then they will be able to ring him up directly. He doesn't want it in this way to work. Perhaps there is a possibility so that his number (Extension) is shown on phones of other employees somehow differently?

i think you are trying to make the phone system do something that discipline would take care of.
Tell them not to phone the boss directly. problem solved.

Indeed, and I imagine he has something called a memory so he can remember who to sack when they do

You could always have his DND turned on and have anyone who is supposed to ring him in his exclusion list along with a catch all entry for external calls, I could tell you how but looks like you need the practice

Use a bridged call appearance to the CA on the secretary's phone.
DDI calls to the boss will appear on the boss's CA
Train the boss to grab a bridged appearance instead of a CA when making calls internally. Calls will then appear to be from the secretary.
As tom and riddle have said - you are trying to find a technological solution to a HR issue. Train the staff correctly and then enforce the, quite frankly, stupid policy using company disciplinary procedures

I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.

i got a better idea, take the phone system out. problem solved, the politely ask the customer to then design their own phone system that works not like a phone system.
god i hate customers like this.

Always the same old stupid story
I would not even want to call a boss if he or she is like that !
