When Zhao Zhijie and Li Weiwei returned to the room again, both of them had heavy faces. Looking at everyone's gaze, Zhao Zhijie said: "We have just done data recovery, and the contact between Li Mengyao and the deceased over the past year has been roughly clear. After speaking, he looked at Qiu Zhiyong and wanted to speak.

"Tell me everything you know!" Qiu Zhiyong said.

Zhao Zhijie looked at Hai Feng, and Hai Feng nodded at him. Zhao Zhijie touched Li Weiwei and said, "Li Weiwei, come on." ”

Li Weiwei said with a sad face: "Huang Guan and Li Mengyao met a year ago when they were playing 'League of Kings'. After getting to know each other, the two chatted very closely, and Li Mengyao's tragic experience that happened to her to Huang Guan made Huang Guan feel a sense of sympathy, and he regarded Li Mengyao as his confidante. ”

Li Weiwei paused and continued: "After Li Mengyao and Huang Guan got acquainted, she invited Huang Guan to play a game called 'Nonsense' with her, that game is a kryptonite game, which costs more money than any well-known game, but Huang Guan feels that playing games with Li Mengyao is the happiest thing for him, and he would rather spend a lot of money. After spending all the money given by the family, I went to work to make money. When the money I earned from my part-time job was spent, I borrowed money from my classmates and friends. As long as Li Mengyao asks him to play games, he will appear in front of the computer on time no matter what is happening or not. ”

Hai Feng was a little surprised when he heard Li Weiwei's words, he didn't understand how the sensible Huang Guan he knew could be fascinated by a stranger.

Li Weiwei continued: "Li Mengyao and Huang Guan are not only playmates in the game, but also have a relationship through the Internet. The two of them pretended to be boyfriend and girlfriend on the Internet, added 'giant chat' to each other, often used 'giant chat' to chat, and also sent photos to each other. But every time Huang Guan proposed to see Li Mengyao, she refused for various reasons. ”

Li Mengyao not only often asked Qiu Feng to charge money in the game to buy various props for her, but also asked Huang Guan for money from time to time. Huang Guan was like a demon, and agreed to her various requests without hesitation. until he was penniless. However, Li Mengyao was still not satisfied, she even introduced an online loan to Qiu Feng, and asked Qiu Feng to buy something for her through an online loan. ”

Li Weiwei paused, and then said: "Shortly before Huang Guan's suicide, Li Mengyao and Huang Guan said that their father needed 20,000 yuan for hospitalization, but the family's money was pressed on the project, and it took half a month to get it, and they couldn't get that much money for a while, so they hoped that Huang Guan would lend it to him." ”

Huang Guan was also anxious when he found out, he didn't want Li Mengyao to worry and wanted to help her, but he was penniless, and he didn't dare to ask his mother for this money, so he borrowed 20,000 yuan from the online loans that Li Mengyao introduced to him. ”

Huang Guan thought that the 20,000 yuan was just to solve Li Mengyao's urgent need, and Li Mengyao also promised him that he would definitely return the principal with interest in half a month. However, after Li Mengyao got the money, she disappeared from the world and never contacted Huang Guan again. Huang Guan couldn't contact Li Mengyao, if the money didn't come back, his studies were also affected, his thesis was not written, he couldn't get his graduation certificate, he didn't know how to face his mother, he felt that he had no way out, and finally chose to commit suicide. ”

"First use the Aronson effect to lure people in, then use the Matthew effect to make people fall deeper and deeper, and then use the Barnum effect to harvest, and when everything is done and there is no way to gain anything, the world will evaporate. A scam lasted for a year, and Huang Guan met a master. Li Mengyang followed Li Weiwei's words.

Seeing that everyone was confused, Hai Feng said to Li Mengyang, "Can you explain what you just said?"

Li Mengyang nodded and continued: "It's all a simple psychological effect, the Aronson effect is to make the victim further do the behavior that the suspect wants the victim to do, that is, to let the victim spend a little money to express his love through the game, and respond to this love, so that the victim is more willing to spend money for himself." ”

"The Matthew effect is that the more the victim invests in the suspect, the more he is willing to pay for it and invest in it. The Barnum Effect is when a suspect defrauds a victim of money by suggesting that they associate money with expressions of affection. Of course, this is not a standard explanation for these three effects, but in this case, I think this explanation can give you a better understanding of the victim's psychological activities. ”

After listening to Li Mengyang's explanation, Hai Feng also knew that Huang Guan would lose himself and fall into a scam. After thinking for a while, he said to Li Weiwei: "Have you recovered Li Mengyao's photo? Is there any specific information about her? Which company developed the game? Is there any specific information about the company? How did Huang Guan give Li Mengyao money? Is there any transfer record to check?"

Li Weiwei couldn't react when she heard so many questions, she poked Zhao Zhijie and said, "Come on!"

Zhao Zhijie then said: "I found the photos that Li Mengyao sent to Huang Guan, but those photos are the life photos of an unknown foreign film actor, and it can't be her at all." We also found out that she told Huang Guan that she was studying at Tanghua University, and we had just contacted that there had never been a student named Li Mengyao. ”

Zhao Zhijie looked at Hai Feng and continued: "We have also checked the development company shown in this game, but there is no record, and it is estimated that it is also fake. Huang Guan and Li Mengyao are transferred through online payment, and if you want to check, you can only check through the payment company. ”

Zhang Mufeng continued: "It's useless to check, the money must have been washed, and it can't be found out at all, I'm right, right?"

Zhao Zhijie nodded and said to everyone: "This is a common method of Internet scams, it is difficult to track the flow of funds, and there is nothing that can be done according to the traditional way of handling cases." ”

Qiu Zhiyong felt even more sad after listening to Li Weiwei and Zhao Zhijie's words, he didn't expect Huang Guan to have such an encounter this year, he felt ashamed of Huang Jifeng. What makes Qiu Zhiyong even more sad is that he, a veteran in handling cases, doesn't even have the ability to find out the culprit, does he really want to let this Li Mengyao get away with it?

Hai Feng looked at Qiu Zhiyong, who bowed his head and was silent, and he was also sad in his heart, he asked Zhao Zhijie with a glimmer of hope: "You are a master of trace tracking, there must be clues to find this Li Mengyao, right?"

Zhao Zhijie nodded: "I found the information of this game server through game analysis, and I can determine the location of the server, as for Li Mengyao's information and the information of this game company, there will definitely be clues on the server." ”

"Where's the server?" Hai Feng asked.

"In Qingdong City. Zhao Zhijie replied.

"Understood. Then let's go to Qingdong City first and find out Li Mengyao and this game company. Hai Feng said. After speaking, he looked at Qiu Zhiyong and waited for Qiu Zhiyong's instructions.

Qiu Zhiyong let out a long sigh and said, "That's it, then let's stop here for today's meeting, there is nothing I can help you with, and the rest depends on you." ”

After the meeting ended, Qiu Zhiyong stopped Hai Feng and Liu Zhiyang and asked the two of them to take a walk with him.

The three middle-aged men walked on the grassy campus, no one spoke, and Qiu Zhiyong knew that his two juniors were waiting for him to speak first. Qiu Zhiyong saw the long bench not far in front of him and said to them, "Let's go over and sit down." ”

Sitting on the bench next to the playground, looking at the empty playground, Qiu Zhiyong opened the conversation: "I'm really old, I can't do it anymore, I've been a policeman for so many years, I didn't expect a small fraud case I didn't have a clue, if it weren't for you, if it wasn't for those young people, maybe I would never have found the culprit." I really can't imagine that I have worked so hard all my life to be such a failure, and I can't even protect the orphan of a comrade who died at work. ”

Hai Feng said to Qiu Zhiyong: "Don't be sad, it's not that you're old, it's that the times are different, how could there be any Internet in our era, and cybercrime is even more fantastic." Over the years, the cases we have handled are all traditional crimes, which is our strength, you have handled so many cases over the years, and you have made so many contributions, and no one can erase the contributions you have made. ”

As he spoke, Hai Feng's voice changed: "But we are all newcomers to cybercrime, and we can't compare with their young people." Not only you, but Liu Zhiyang and I are also lagging behind this era. So we need to rely on these young people, who are the future of the country. ”

Qiu Zhiyong looked at his two juniors and continued: "Yes, the times are different, and the rapid changes make people a little confused. In the past, when I was handling a case, how easy was it to find the suspect? Once I revealed my identity, I would know the general situation by asking a few more neighbors. No matter how bad it is, call all the bad boys around you and interrogate them one by one, and there will always be someone who can know something. ”

Qiu Zhiyong paused and continued: "At that time, the police signboard was much more useful than it is now, how could those criminals dare to be so rampant, and who saw the police and didn't hug their heads and run away? I remember that in those days, I could bring back seven or eight criminals with a piece of hemp rope alone. The crowd around me is my eyeliner, and if someone commits a crime, I will definitely be able to find him. ”

Qiu Zhiyong smiled, thinking of the past, he was a little high-spirited. He continued: "Now the situation is different, criminals are much more cunning than before and know how to evade the crackdown. The difficulty of handling cases has increased a lot. It's nothing, the times are advancing, criminals are advancing, we are also improving, and we still have an advantage in the face of criminals. Whether it is weaponry or talent quality, we can crush criminals. What's more, we still have the magic weapon of 'relying on the masses'!"

On the one hand, with the improvement of living standards and the expansion of the scale of cities, the mobility and concealment of criminal activities have also been enhanced, which has brought pressure to the crackdown on crimes, and on the other hand, criminals' awareness of anti-investigation and legal evasion has also improved, which has increased the difficulty of cracking down.

Hai Feng even felt that some criminals had a more positive attitude towards learning than himself, and he often met those criminals who had a soft spot for the legal column, and for those people, the legal column had become the best tutorial for him to learn criminal experience and escape criminal crackdowns.

At the same time, with the continuous advancement of law enforcement standardization, the police deterrence has weakened to a certain extent, and there is no way to obtain evidence through violence, and convincing people with reason is not generally applicable to criminals, which also brings a test to the crime crackdown, whether it is the discovery of criminal traces, the search for criminal evidence or the acquisition of criminal confessions are more difficult than before, and more effective ways to combat crime have not yet appeared.

However, there is no doubt that "relying on the masses" is a magic weapon to crack down on crime, after all, the eyes of the masses are clear, and with their help, they can find a lot of clues to crimes, get a lot of criminal evidence, and even some people will go into battle to catch criminals. This will undoubtedly bring great convenience to police work.

But Haifeng also knows that not all crimes can rely on the masses, and cybercrime is a model that cannot rely on the masses to complete the crackdown. After all, it is more concealed, the crime area is wider, and the criminal act in place A is often carried out in place B, and for place A, no one can know the occurrence of this criminal activity except the victim, which further increases the difficulty of crime crackdown.

Qiu Zhiyong's face showed a little sadness, and he continued: "But in the face of this elusive cybercrime, I feel more and more powerless. I felt like a piece of shit, completely unsure of what to do. ”

Qiu Zhiyong's eyes were a little moist, and he choked up and said, "Huang Guan died in front of me, his life has just begun! I don't even know how to face Xu Ting or Jifeng. Jifeng is a hero who sacrificed his job, we should treat his family preferentially, we should protect his family, but I can't even do this little thing!"

The night wind constantly blows the poplar leaves on the campus, making a rattling sound, as if whispering about the bleak life. The bright moon hung in the sky and emitted a bright white light, illuminating the black night, but it could not bring a trace of warmth to this old man who was over half a hundred years old. The empty campus lost the hustle and bustle of the past, leaving only a piece of desolation.

Liu Zhiyang, who usually talks the most, stood there without saying a word, just silently listening to Qiu Zhiyong's words. He wanted to comfort the old senior, but he didn't know how to speak. He looked at the old senior in front of him, now he is not the deputy director of the National Police Agency, but just an old man who feels helpless in the face of cybercrime.

He looked at this old senior who had fought with criminals all his life, this former criminal buster, but he still failed to win this battle, and the price paid for this defeat was the loss of a life, a tragedy of a white-haired man sending a black-haired man.

Liu Zhiyang was also a little confused, is it really useful for these people to work hard for so many years? As a faithful practitioner of the law, he has fought against crime for so many years, but there are still so many crimes. Sending in a criminal, another criminal appears, defeating a criminal gang, discovering another criminal gang, and after all these years of busyness, the evil has never disappeared from this beautiful country, but has become more cunning.

He didn't understand why this was happening? Could it be that they weren't working hard enough? They had sacrificed their youth, their health, and the time they spent with their families. But why are there still so many people who are willing to defy the law and refuse to turn back? He couldn't figure it out.

Hai Feng, who had been silent, patted Qiu Zhiyong on the shoulder and said, "You have done a good job, we have all worked hard, but there will always be bastards who will take the lives of others for personal gain, and they will continue to destroy this country like moths." And we, as the patron saints of the country, have always been sticking to our posts. ”

Hai Feng paused and continued: "We have sacrificed our own happiness for the happiness of this country. There is no festive gathering with the family, no careful care for the children, and no attachment to the appearance of the other half. But because of our existence, more people in this country have those happiness. We're really trying to move forward. Xu Ting won't blame you, and Jifeng won't blame you either. ”

Qiu Zhiyong looked at Hai Feng, he didn't understand how this ignorant junior could argue well today, he knew that Hai Feng hoped that he would feel better, but Qiu Zhiyong was still sad in his heart, and the feeling of helplessness in his heart in the face of cybercrime still existed. And at this moment, Qiu Zhiyong only hopes that his determination is not too late.
