In Chang'an, the Forbidden City, in the underground security monitoring center, countless flashing screens are like stars in the night sky, densely arranged on the walls, reflecting the young and focused face of a police officer on duty. He stared at the screen intently, with his fingers on the keyboard.
With rapid tapping, the control commands poured down like a waterfall.
In the surveillance screen, there was a steady flow of people, and the magnificent scenery of the Forbidden City was in full view. He took a deep breath, and a sense of accomplishment in controlling the overall situation emerged. He turned to his colleagues next to him and said, "You know what? Sometimes I
I feel like a god, high above, overlooking all living beings."
His colleague was an experienced veteran police officer. Hearing this slightly childish sentiment, he couldn't help but smile and responded: "In a sense, your current job is indeed like a god. Monitoring everything.
, guarding the tranquility of this city. How are you, what did you find?"
He knew that a major case was being investigated recently, so there was a hint of curiosity in his tone. Although these cases were under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Security Bureau and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they still had the obligation to assist.
"There is no conclusive evidence yet." The young police officer rubbed his sore eyes and shook his head: "We have recently activated all surveillance cameras and are working overtime just to confirm some things and find those who are plotting evil intentions.
Dangerous elements. The computer system is conducting preliminary comparisons to screen out suspicious individuals."
"Is there any progress?" the old police officer asked with concern.
"There are some clues." The young police officer pointed to the flashing red dot on the screen. "There are about 10 people who have appeared frequently around the Forbidden City recently, and 8 of them have appeared in the open part of the Forbidden City multiple times."
"So many?" The old police officer frowned: "It seems like something is really going to happen."
"It's not certain yet." The young police officer replied cautiously: "I have reported the news to the Imperial Security Bureau, and also copied the email to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I heard that they are crazy busy over there, and many departments are investigating.
Related things."
"Well done," the old police officer patted him on the shoulder, "The rest is up to them. This is not something we need to worry about anymore."
"Yes," the young police officer nodded, looking back at the screen again: "But it's still very interesting to see these idiots operating under their noses. For example, this person, he appeared in the Forbidden City again today
Open area.”
"Which one?" The old police officer looked along his finger.
"That's him," the young police officer pointed at a man wearing sunglasses on the screen: "He wore sunglasses, which seemed to be hidden intentionally, but the beard was very distinctive, so I remembered it."
"Should we send someone to detain him and question him carefully?" the old police officer suggested.
"That's what I suggested." The young police officer shrugged helplessly: "But the director said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not let us act without authorization. I guess we want to take a long-term approach to catch big fish... Who knows."
"Then there's nothing we can do..." the old police officer sighed: "Just keep an eye on him...just don't let him cause any trouble."
"Don't worry." The young police officer said confidently: "There is no way for him to bring any dangerous items into the Forbidden City due to the three-level security inspection. I guess he visits the places so frequently to prepare for subsequent actions."
"Ha." The old police officer chuckled: "I really don't know what these people are thinking. They may not know the security system of the Forbidden City and it has been upgraded a long time ago."
He paused and added: "They think they are smart, but in fact, we have already mastered their every move."
"That's right." The young police officer agreed, "They are like chess pieces played in our hands. They think they are invisible, but they don't know that their every move is under our surveillance.
"
"I hope they won't regret it when the time comes. After all, those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Security Bureau have extraordinary methods." The old police officer said, "They will miss something called the law. After all, the law protects the weak.
nice one."
"Yes." The young police officer nodded: "The security of the Forbidden City cannot be violated. Anyone who attempts to destroy it will pay the price."
…
Within the Imperial Security Bureau, the atmosphere was solemn, and the air was filled with the smell of tension. The top leader of the action team, Director Leo, sat at the head of the conference table, saying nothing, scanning everyone present with his sharp eyes. He was
The majestic aura exuded made the temperature of the entire conference room seem to drop a few degrees. An operator from the action team carefully walked to the conference table and gently placed a photo on the table.
"Reporting to the Director, after comparative analysis of gait, this person has appeared near the Forbidden City as many as eleven times." The operator's voice was slightly trembling, and he was obviously in awe of Leo's majesty: "Every time he appears, his
They were all dressed differently, and on two occasions, he wore sunglasses in an attempt to conceal his identity."
Another member of the analysis team added: "What is even more suspicious is that although this person did not carry any camera equipment, he appeared around the Forbidden City many times, which is obviously inconsistent with the behavior pattern of ordinary tourists."
He held his chin and looked at the portrait in the photo carefully, frowning, as if he was trying to capture the clues hidden in the photo: "We are comparing image data from other directions, hoping to find more video data about him, so that
for a more in-depth analysis.”
He paused and then added: "However, due to the huge amount of data and the limited performance of the central processor, it will take some time to complete the comparison."
"In addition." Another colleague continued: "In addition to this person, we also found seven or eight equally suspicious people who often appear near the Forbidden City."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There was a hint of worry in his tone: "We are trying to connect these people to see if we can find some breakthroughs. But some of them are new to Chang'an'
The migrant households, some of whom have been here for several years, are very mixed.”
"These people are not ordinary tourists." A senior detective said with certainty: "Their behavior is very suspicious and completely inconsistent with normal logic."
He paused and then added: "Their disguise is full of loopholes in the eyes of experienced agents like us. We can 100% confirm that they are stepping on the spot."
"How is the progress of the weapons investigation?" Leo finally spoke, his voice low and powerful, with a hint of unquestionable majesty.
The team member responsible for investigating suspected weapons replied tiredly: "Reporting to the director, the investigation of weapons is more difficult because the scope we have to supervise is so large that there will inevitably be some mistakes."
"Then let's talk about the important ones." Leo interrupted his report impatiently, squinting his eyes with a hint of coldness.
Seeing this, the subordinates shrank in fear and quickly reported the investigation results: "In the Eastern Continent, due to the recent frequent fighting, as far as we know, at least four sniper combat teams have disappeared or disappeared in the past three months.
There were losses, more than seven high-precision sniper rifles were lost, and several sets of related observation equipment were also missing."
After swallowing his saliva, he continued: "In the Western Continent, the management of military weapons is relatively strict, and the accounts can basically be reconciled. However, the number of unaccounted for civilian high-precision shotguns exceeds 32, and investigation is very difficult.
It’s so big that we can’t check it out at all.”
"In addition," he took a deep breath and continued to report, "we also conducted a secret investigation and found that there was an alarming amount of unaccounted for explosives including mines, estimated to exceed one ton, including some powerful military models.
Explosives. This does not include artillery shells, because the management of artillery shells is more complicated and there is no way to make accurate statistics."
A huge number of artillery shells and aerial bombs have been consumed on the Eastern Continent in the past six months, including those that were fired without exploding. Counting such data seems completely meaningless.
"Director, starting the investigation from the aspect of weapons and explosives is too inefficient and is like finding a needle in a haystack." A team member put forward his own suggestion: "I suggest arresting these suspicious persons directly and letting them know that we have targeted them.
, so they may cancel their action plan out of fear. It would be better if the person behind it could be interrogated."
"But what if the interrogation fails?" Another team member raised an objection, "Even if these suspicious persons are arrested, the black hands hidden behind are still at large, and His Majesty's safety is still threatened. This is our absolute
Intolerable!”
"Then what do you think we should do?" the first member of the group who made the suggestion asked.
"My suggestion is," another team member calmly analyzed, "on the one hand, let the team investigating weapons and explosives continue to conduct in-depth investigations, while increasing manpower and strengthening monitoring of those suspicious targets. Remember not to alert others.
Just keep an eye on their every move."
He paused and then added: "On the other hand, use the cameras on the street to closely monitor the most suspicious guy. I want to know his address, who he has come into contact with, and the names of all the people he has come into contact with."
Every detailed information must be checked carefully, and no clues can be missed."
"Let's do this for the time being!" Leo didn't have any good solution, so he could only accept the suggestion of his subordinates and ordered.
"Yes! Sir!" Everyone present replied in unison, with a firm and powerful tone.
…
Sophia stared at the computer screen in front of her angrily, her slender fingers clenching into fists. Now she finally knew why her subordinates kept saying that she seemed to be being targeted...
That's right, she finally knew that there was a thing called a camera. This kind of thing was also a new thing in the Western Continent. If she hadn't been exposed to the Internet, it was unlikely that she would have known about such a thing.
As for the subordinate she arranged in Chang'an... he doesn't know how to surf the Internet at all! Because of Sophia's funding, this subordinate has been busy making money and having fun, so how can he have time to pay attention to the latest scientific and technological information?
Exposed! This was Sophia's first reaction. Her second reaction was that she should still be safe.
The confidant who often visits the spot has been acting alone for a while, and he has cut off all contact with her, so even if he is caught, she will not be implicated.
What just made her feel helpless was that before her action plan even started, there might be a backup plan that was doomed to fail.
After dealing with the Silver Fox of the Tang Empire, the Imperial Security Bureau, for so many years, she was very clear about how powerful her opponent was. She had no luck at all, and she knew that her subordinates must have been exposed.
.
The only question is: how much was exposed?
"Idiot!" Sofia slammed the table, her delicate face full of sullenness, and her tone became sharp, "After coming here for so many years, you actually told me that you don't know about computers? You don't know about the Internet? You do it every day
What are you doing? How did you complete the task I gave you?" She turned her head suddenly, and her sharp eyes were like knives directed at the subordinate standing beside her, as if she wanted to chop him alive.
Her subordinate was trembling with fright at the sudden anger, and his already embarrassed expression became even more awkward. Big beads of sweat fell down his forehead, soaking his collar.
"S-Sir..." He stammered, wanting to explain, but he didn't know where to start.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sophia took a deep breath, tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, pointed at the computer in front of her, and said word by word: "I'll ask about this kind of thing.
Passed! Many young children can use it! You actually told me that you don’t know how? Do you have any brains?"
She turned to look at the computer screen again, her slender fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard, trying to find what she wanted from the complicated information: "I spent so much money training you, but you gave me
This kind of answer?"
Her tone was full of disappointment and helplessness: "How do you make me believe that you can complete more important tasks in the future?"
The subordinate lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Sophia's eyes. He could only keep wiping the sweat on his forehead, and defended in a low voice: "Sir, my lord, there is nothing I can do about it... I have never seen this kind of thing before.
I have never been in contact with it, so there is really...no way."
Sophia is actually not very good at using this kind of thing, but she is indeed very smart. It only took a few days to learn to use some of the functions of the computer. Although she is a little clumsy, she is indeed much better than others.
If she hadn't been so smart, she wouldn't have been able to thrive in the Cyric Consortium, let alone have been against the Datang Group for so many years.
"Shut up!" Sophia ignored the idiot standing next to her. She stretched out the two index fingers of her left and right hands and clumsily tapped the keys on the keyboard one by one, spelling out the desired keywords, and browsed some of the things she felt on the Internet.
Interesting content.
This thing is so convenient. It is so convenient that you can check a lot of intelligence content that took a long time to investigate in the past. Some less important knowledge can also be found casually... For people like Sophia, it is like opening a new door.
The door to the world makes her a little obsessed.
