Sergei reluctantly raised his hand, "This is not the attitude towards an old friend, Professor Jackson. 2.

"You goddamn little bastard, you seem to have forgotten the rules. This is my last hiding place, and I don't want anyone to show me, so I don't want any of my colleagues to come here. Jackson shook his head. He put down the scissors in his hand, put his hands on his lips and whistled. The two sturdy hounds rushed to his side, and they all bared their teeth at Sergei.

"You know, I've long since quit this business. So it's not your peers, and I'm not here to hit your collectibles. Sergei shook his head.

"Perhaps, I think you've been missing for a while. After we broke up, you worked as a mercenary for a while. Jackson frowned, "That's all the more necessary for you to explain your intentions." I have too many enemies, how do I know that someone didn't ask you to deal with me?"

"Because you know I'm never going to deal with you. Sergei shook his head.

"It's not good, people change. Jackson looked at Sergei and said, "I want to believe you, but you still have to tell me what you mean, or I'll let these two dogs rip your throat open." ”

"Come on, Professor, you're an art thief, not a murderer. So you're not going to do that. Sergei shook his head and said, "I came to you because I needed help." ”

Jackson looked at him for a moment before shaking his head and said, "Let's go, let's go to the room and talk." ”

Sergei nodded, turned and followed Jackson into the far room.

Jackson walked in and sat down in a chair, "Okay, now tell me what you need help with." ”

"I need someone to help me crack a timely security system. Sergei looked at him and said.

There are four companies around the world producing these latest security systems, which are state-of-the-art security systems based on electronic information technology. What is advocated is the concept of timely defense, and the intrusion information can be fed back to the security personnel at the moment of intrusion. Which company's product are you talking about?" mused, Jackson.

"It seems that you haven't aged at all. Sergei smiled, "Pavilan, and their most notorious timely security system." ”

Jackson frowned, "It's not easy, this system of the Pavilan Company has never really been cracked. ”

"But I'm sure you can. Sergei looked at Jackson and said. "I know you're familiar with all the high-level security systems, and you've even found multiple well-known system vulnerabilities. If anyone can crack this just-in-time security system, it must be you. ”

Jackson shook his head and said, "It can't be. Because there are some conditions that you can't do. To infiltrate a place with a timely security system, you will have to face hundreds of dynamic capture systems composed of 360-degree video surveillance. Even if a fly flies all the time, it can be caught by the system and cause it to be analyzed. The system is so automated that it doesn't even require security personnel to be present. It can also handle hundreds of hotspots at the same time.

And once the analysis reveals an anomaly, this information will be immediately reported to the security company, and not only all guards will be alarmed. The security company will also notify the local police as soon as possible. Sergey, it is difficult for you to go to the place where such a system is installed. It's hard to even get close. It's not something you can do alone, you need a team. ”

"Yes, we already have the team, but what we need now is you. Sergei looked at Jackson and said. "We need your ability and experience. ”

"I'm retired, so I'm not going to steal with you. Jackson shook his head.

"We're not stealing. I've long since quit this business, it's a mercenary mission. But this timely security system makes it difficult for us to carry out our operations, Professor, we need help. Sergei looked at him and said.

Jackson shook his head, "It has nothing to do with me, I'm just a thief." And even when it comes to being a thief, I'm already very remorseful. Not to mention helping you mercenaries, I'm a principled person."

"Professor, this matter has a lot at stake. Sergei whispered, "And I think about it, only you can help us." The lives of many innocent people are at stake. Can't you make an exception even once?"

Jackson shook his head and said, "No." ”

"We are dealing with a Chechen terrorist this time. Sergey raised his voice. "You have been in Russia, you have personally experienced the Moscow hostage incident. ”

"So what? It's not my war. Jackson shook his head and said, "I'm just a thief." I'm not a terrorist, I'm not a terrorist, I don't care about any of them. ”

"So, how are you going to help?" Sergei said, looking at him. "Say a condition, as long as I can do it. How much money do you need?"

"I don't want anything. I see you're still leaving early, don't waste time here. Jackson shook his head.

Sergei looked at him and said, "Of course you don't need money. What you have is money, and this rose garden is enough for you to live a life of abundance. Not to mention your room full of priceless collectibles. But you still need a place to protect you for the rest of your life. No one knows, no one can bother. But for now, you're a little bit away from that. ”

"What do you want to say, you want to report us, or use this as a threat to let me help you die?" Jackson frowned. "I thought you were at least friendly this time. ”

"I am indeed friendly, and I will not betray you even if you refuse to help us. Like I said before, I'm not going to do anything to be sorry for you. But I just want to remind you. No matter how well you hide, you're still a fugitive. If I can find you, so can others. If you want to spend the rest of your life in a good way, you have to find a way out of this identity. Only in this way can there be no worries. Sergei looked at him and said.

"It's easy to say. I am wanted in several European countries. What can you do to help me get rid of it?" mocked Jackson.

"I really don't, but some people can. For example, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Sergei looked at him and said, "I can try to get them to give you a real fake identity." ”

"A real fake identity?" Jackson frowned.

"They can make all the necessary documents, and it's all official. Although it is a fake identity, it is unassailable. They are often used to protect important witnesses or to cover the identity of agents. If I can help you secure such a false identity, then you don't have to worry about being a fugitive. You'll be able to walk through the crowd and bask in the afternoon sun in the park without worrying about people recognizing you. Sergei looked at him and said.
