Chapter 373 Trouble
As the car was on the road, Cui Jian asked, "Why don't you use navigation?"
Sachiko replied: "Beware of hacker intrusion." As humans use and rely on computer technology, a large number of hacker markets have emerged accordingly. From the news, we know that hackers have entered the world of ordinary people. For example, a city advises residents not to record their faces.
Cui Jiandao: "But this is your company's work phone."
Sachiko said, "I'll use it if you need it."
Compared with Yoshiko, Sachiko speaks very little and has a cold personality. From one day's contact, Cui Jian knows that Sachiko does not have to be silent.
Amano Hotel was in the north, and they were stationed in the north of Osaka Castle. In less than 20 minutes, the car left the city and drove on the highway. A few minutes later, a gray car came from behind. Cui Jian was about to remind Sachiko when he received a call from Duanmu. After hanging up the phone, he said to Sachiko: "Can you find a hidden place to park? Or find a small road."
Sachiko looked up at the rearview mirror and saw a gray vehicle following behind the car. She nodded, "Okay." One kilometer later, Sachiko turned on the turn signal, turned right downhill, and stopped beside a stone bridge leading into the village. The gray vehicle followed and stopped behind the car.
Cui Jian: “Wait a moment.” He got out of the car, walked to the gray sedan, opened the back seat and sat in.
Hailan sat in the driver's seat, and Cui Jian got in the car and greeted him: "Hi!"
"Hey, Zhou Bao owes you one." Hai Lan took a small box from her right hand and handed it to Cui Jian.
"No problem." Cui Jian opened the box and found a cell phone, a pistol, and two magazines. Cui Jian checked the pistol and smelled it. It was not a new gun.
Hai Lan said: "Someone used this gun to rob three weeks ago, and the trajectory has been recorded in the police files." In the absence of any witnesses, Cui Jian used this pistol to kill someone, and someone would be blamed for it.
Hai Lan continued, "We just got the news that a family, a couple and a pair of children, are staying in the general area of Amano Hotel. They checked in this evening and will leave the day after tomorrow. Three women in their fifties are living in the women's area. They checked in this morning and will leave in three days. Five people are living in the team area. They are members of the Conan fan club. They will be reasoning about the case at Amano Hotel. They will check in at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and have reserved breakfast. They will stay for a week and more club members will join them."
Cui Jian: "These are under Duanmu's management."
Hai Lan glanced at Cui Jian and found that Cui Jian didn't understand her disappointed look at all, so she continued, "Duanmu can block the bullet, but Duolan must not die. He is a very important staff member and think tank of the special forces captain."
Cui Jian: "You make it sound easy, but it was Duanmu who gave the money."
Hai Lan said: "Someone will give the money. There is bad news. Ueda's work phone called three times half an hour ago. The number was the same, and no one answered. We can't find the situation of this number, and it is not certain whether the number is the technical department number of the Tokyo Security Company. Duanmu's response was: he has his own arrangements." Obviously Hai Lan was dissatisfied with Duanmu's response.
Cui Jian: "Half an hour ago? Before we were about to go out?"
Hailan said: "Judging from the time, it should be 8 minutes before your vehicle left the building. I checked and found that the lock code of the work mobile phone is the same, all 1234. It is possible that someone else used Ueda's mobile phone to call other people."
Cui Jian nodded and said, "I don't understand one thing. Apart from the role of a guide, is there any other reason for hiring a Tokyo security company?"
Hai Lan replied: "The vicious dogs are in the dark and it is difficult to guard against them. The role of the Tokyo Security Company team is to act as bait to lure out the vicious dogs. So far, the team does not have any major problems. Even if there is a problem with the call, it is impossible to convey a clear message through three unanswered calls."
Cui Jian: "Okay, is there anything else?" He put the pistol on his back and put away the magazine.
Hai Lan said: "Buzzer, buckle it on the belt buckle." and handed over a metal object.
Cui Jianchao inserted the metal belt buckle into the belt, and the size was just right: "How dare you peek at my belt?"
Hai Lan did not answer the question and said, "The middle pattern is a button. Press it twice in a row to activate the buzzer, and the mercenaries will recognize you as one of their own. If you need emergency help, press and hold for three seconds."
Cui Jian: "I understand. Is there anything else?"
"never mind."
Cui Jian got out of the car and got into Sachiko's car. Hailan's car backed out of the side road first and turned towards Osaka Castle.
……
The car did not enter the town. We continued along the town road for about four kilometers and saw the obvious billboard of Amano Hotel on the roadside. We turned left into the mountain and headed up at a 20-degree angle. On the left was a mountain with a drainage ditch half the width of a tire on the side of the mountain. On the right was a cliff with a steel guardrail. The road was not wide and could barely accommodate a bus. Therefore, there was a place for meeting, turning around, and parking every meters.
Sachiko pulled over, used the car lights to observe for a while, chose a five-needle pine on the side of the road, hid a camera in it, took out her phone and established a connection with the camera. The connection was normal. Sachiko got in the car and drove into the mountains.
Five cameras were deployed along the way and the car reached Amano Hotel.
There are two lanterns hanging at the entrance of the hotel, and the induction sliding glass door allows you to see the reception hall at a glance. There is a sofa and coffee table in the hall, a reception desk, and an auntie wearing a headscarf sitting behind the reception desk writing something with a pen.
Seeing the guests, the auntie immediately stood up to greet them. After talking to them, she learned that they were waiting for someone, so she served them tea and asked them to help themselves, but they could not enter the hotel through the reception hall.
Cui Jian went outside to light a cigar, while Sachiko got some tea and leaned against the front desk to chat with the aunt. However, Sachiko seemed not good at socializing, and after a few words she sat on the sofa and played with her phone.
In Osaka Castle, Yiyi was working late into the night for the Special Service Knights. She had successfully hacked into the technical department of the Tokyo Security Company. The reason why it was so easy was that the firewalls of large companies were similar. For example, 50% of users in a certain country used the 180 security system. As long as someone could crack the firewall of one computer, they could crack the firewalls of 50% of computers in the country.
Yiyi and his gang often compete on the Internet using firewalls like 180. Today, they faced the security company firewall that they had cracked before. Although it couldn't be said to be an easy victory, it didn't take too much time.
Yiyi connected with Hailan: "Sachiko is the traitor."
Hailan said patiently: "Yiyi, you are a technician, don't jump to conclusions."
Yiyi: "You are the trouble. Sachiko's phone automatically dials every ten seconds and hangs up after about five seconds. The other party can easily locate Sachiko's location through this information."
Hailan: "Is it possible that someone else also hacked into the technical department? Ueda's phone also made similar calls. The other party used the company platform to set Sachiko's phone to make calls every ten seconds in the background, and Sachiko herself did not notice. This situation only occurred once on Ueda's phone. Could it be that he notified his accomplices and asked Sachiko to go to the meeting place and follow her?"
Yiyi thought for a while: "Your explanation seems to make sense. Five security companies including Tokyo Security Company and Hancheng Security Company use the same system. A month ago, we at Riot privately organized an invasion competition. There were 17 people participating, and in the end, 6 people invaded the system within the specified time without alerting the other party." She didn't quite believe that there were Riot members among the criminals.
Hai Lan said: "We have no obligation to help the security company catch the traitor. Your job is to collect intelligence and stand by."
Yiyi replied: "I understand."
Hai Lan asked casually, "Yiyi, suppose you and your friends are evil geniuses, bad guys, with superb technology. Do you have the ability to paralyze a city?"
Yiyi replied: "Just cut off the power. The current power system has basically achieved intelligentization. If you hack into the system and give wrong instructions, the system will automatically cut off the power supply. Or you can find a way to overload the power grid. However, no matter which method you use, it is basically impossible to paralyze a city simply by relying on hackers. It is still very easy to paralyze traffic, as long as you control the traffic lights."
……
At five in the morning, Cui Jian, who was taking a nap in the car with the heater on, was awakened by the vibration of his cell phone. He listened for a while and hung up. When he reached the door of the hotel, Sachiko saw Cui Jian. Seeing that Cui Jian did not come in, she walked out the door and asked, "Is there anything wrong?" Cui Jian stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the phone."
Sachiko paused for a few seconds, but didn't ask in the end, and handed her phone to Cui Jian. Cui Jian removed the battery, broke the phone, and threw it into the trash can along with his own phone. Seeing Sachiko's confusion, he explained, "Our employer has money. Get in the car."
Sachiko and Choi Gun walked towards the car and asked, "Where are we going?"
Cui Jian replied: "Go down the mountain first."
Sachiko was a little dissatisfied, but still got into the driver's seat. While driving down the mountain, Sachiko asked, "Do you want to recycle the camera?" This question contained a lot of information.
Cui Jian's answer was: "No, our employer has money. Sachiko, do you dare to use a gun?"
Sachiko replied: "I dare, but guns are banned in Japan. I am a bodyguard, not a criminal."
Cui Jian nodded: "Like me, I am not even willing to park illegally for my employer in Korea. The employer can die, but the points cannot be deducted."
Sachiko smiled rarely: "You are very funny."
Cui Jian hurriedly said: "My girlfriend told me not to let other women think I'm interesting." Ye Lan also told him that he was allowed to reveal the fact that he had a girlfriend when he was out and around single women.
Sachiko said, "Your girlfriend is also very interesting."
Cui Jian: “Thank you.” Who doesn’t like his girlfriend to be praised?
After going down the mountain, the car stopped at the intersection. Sachiko looked at Cui Jian and asked, "What's next?"
Cui Jiandao: "Sanchuan Pharmaceutical Factory."
Sachiko said: "The Sanchuan Pharmaceutical Factory was investigated many times due to sewage problems and was closed eight months ago. Now the pharmaceutical factory is just an empty shell with no equipment and no workers."
Cui Jian asked: "How far?"
Sachiko said, "Forty kilometers in the direction of Hyogo, near a small fishing village."
Cui Jian said: "Let's go."
Sachiko: "What about the camera?"
Cui Jian said: "Don't worry about it, our employer has money."
Sachiko nodded, said nothing more, and drove north. She now understood the situation of the project. Dayin Security Company did not trust them at all. Hiring them was equivalent to hiring a guide, driver, and errand boy. As for Amano Hotel, it was just a cover.
Cui Jian, who was sitting in the back seat, talked to Duanmu on the phone: "On the way to the pharmaceutical factory."
Duanmu said: "Have you dealt with the phone?"
Cui Jiandao: "It has been dealt with. Why?"
Duanmu replied: "Hackers have hacked into the Tokyo Security Company. They used the backend of Sachiko's phone to dial a number to locate Sachiko's location."
Cui Jian asked: "Did the other party tamper with the vehicle?"
Duanmu replied: "It doesn't matter. We will proceed to the second step of the plan 5 kilometers ahead."
Cui Jian: “OK.”
Five minutes later, the car entered the tunnel. Cui Jian got off the car and got into the car prepared by Hai Lan. Hai Lan took another car and left. The three cars drove out of the tunnel one after another. Cui Jian and Hai Lan turned right and returned to Osaka. Sachiko followed the instructions and continued to drive to Mikawa Pharmaceutical Factory.
Not only Sachiko, but Yoshiko and Mita also drove a car each heading north, with a man sitting in the back seat of each of their cars. The man wore a silicon mask made with Dolan as a model. The man monitored their every move and took away their mobile phones.
Sachiko, Yoshiko, and Ueda headed for the Mikawa Pharmaceutical Factory in the direction of Hyogo, while Nakata and Shimoda headed for the Gokawa Pharmaceutical Factory in the direction of Kyoto.
You can’t blame Duanmu for making such a fuss, after all, Dolan is too important to the Special Service Knights.
……
In a certain house in Osaka, there lived more than a dozen foreigners and two Japanese people. They were a famous cyber-stalking hunting organization called Blood Moon. Their structure was similar to that of the Seven Killers. They were usually distributed around the world, and gathered together when there was a big order. For example, if the Blood Moon in Spain received a mission to assassinate a Jamaican, Xiyue would contact Yayue to do the job together.
Shuangyue will actively hand over 10% of its profits to Blood Moon, part of which will be used for Blood Moon's secret operations on the Internet, and part of which will be used for Blood Moon's protection of everyone.
The bounty time is very short. The bounty is issued on the 28th, and the action will be taken around New Year's Day. Therefore, apart from Blood Moon, most of the others who came to Japan to pan for gold are lone wolves or teams of two or three people. Blood Moon has local members, so they have great advantages in terms of location and weapons.
The leader of Blood Moon is called Merck. He has two right-hand men, a man and a woman. Let's call the man Xiaoxue and the woman Xiaoyue. They are in their early thirties, in their prime, brave and resourceful. In addition, he has two secret weapons, one of which is a hacker named Lu Wei. Lu Wei, like Yi Yi, is a member of Riot. (Riot: the world's top hacker mutual aid organization)
On the second floor table was an oversized paper map. After receiving the message from the scout, Xiaoyue ticked the road to Hyogo, wrote an A next to it, and said, "Drive the off-road vehicle to Hyogo."
Xiaoxue added: "The bulletproof car goes to Hyogo, and the ordinary car goes to Kyoto." He also made marks on the paper map.
Xiaoyue added: "It takes us 50 minutes to get to point A and 50 minutes to get to point B." Point A refers to the Hyogo Road and Point B refers to the Kyoto Road.
Merck didn't answer immediately. He looked at the map quietly for a while and asked, "Reed, any news?"
Lu Wei replied: "Xingzi and Cui Jian's phones lost signal, Duanmu's phone moved towards Hyogo, and Guiyi's phone moved towards Kyoto."
Xiaoxue said: "Boss, we can only make one bet. I bet on Hyogo. After all, there are two cars, one of which is a bulletproof sedan."
Merck asked, "Where is Cui Jian?"
Xiaoyue said, "Go to the SUV in Hyogo."
Merck said: "Cui Jian performed the best among the bodyguards and was outstanding. He should have been with Dolan. But he was assigned to go to Amano Hotel with Sachiko and then transfer to Hyogo. The first possibility is that Dolan has already met with Luke at Amano Hotel. The second possibility..."
Lu Wei interrupted: "Boss, the employer sent us the information of a third party." He tapped on the keyboard and projected the content onto the TV.
