……
An Feng got on the plane, turned around and rushed to Santa Clara County, and landed on the tarmac demarcated by the robot company twenty minutes later.
When I got off the plane, I saw a dejected Hoffman running over.
Although this guy is in his twenties, he is like a high school student who has not been exposed to many major events in other aspects, except for his stability in scientific research. An Feng also understands the eagerness of losing the most important things, so try to be patient when talking to him and keep his tone steady.
"Tell me more about this morning." An Feng said as he walked.
"I got up in the morning and thought about the blueprints, so I opened the door to the lab and opened the safe to see the exoskeleton, sorry I just wanted to see the artwork because it looked so perfect that I didn't think I could design ......"
An Feng reminded him: "Off topic, what do you see?" ”
"I'm sorry!" Hoffman returned to the subject: "I saw that it was empty, and the special lockbox and hard drive containing the exoskeleton were gone. ”
"And what about the special tablet?" An Feng wondered, there are usually some important drawings in the safe, or it is high-tech that has not been released by GP, Hoffman likes to collect rare things, and the company currently has two small computers and a lot of super batteries.
Hoffman took out the tablet from the inner layer of clothing: "I brought it back last night, and I was going to calculate the limit of the exoskeleton machinery under high strength......"
An Feng interrupted him: "It's good that it's still on you." ”
Hoffman hid back: "No one will be able to take it." ”
An Feng was speechless, with your small body, any strong man would be knocked down with one move...... They went to the stolen lab and looked at the empty safe, which had nothing left but a pile of drawings. From the outside, there are no signs of violent prying. It was proved that it was done by the technical party.
An Feng asked, "When did you work last night?" I mean, what does it work in this lab? ”
Hoffman said, "About two o'clock, about half past two, I left at the last of my time." ”
"What time did you come in the morning?"
"Ten past seven."
With Hoffman's answer, the thief's time to commit the crime was shortened to five hours in the middle of the night. An Feng looked left and right, the security equipment in the laboratory is responsible for the professional enterprise, including the safe. There was surveillance, fire detectors, and then he asked for monitoring.
When his subordinates adjusted the surveillance, An Feng sat down and said to Hoffman: "Now track the location of the safe, no problem, right?" ”
"No problem, it's dual-mode, and the general means of shielding the signal are useless." As he spoke, Hoffman sat down in front of the computer and typed on the keyboard.
At the same time, the security team urgently dispatched by Aegis Security arrived at the scene.
The team leader is a man named Jeff. Clark's whites. used to work in the FBI, it is said that the salary was not high enough, and after resigning, he voluntarily resigned and started a more lucrative high-end security field. It's like this kind of anti-theft or tracking case, he is very good at it. Upon arrival, he quickly learned about the situation and learned that there were boxes with built-in GPS.
Jeff immediately said, "Track it down and show it on the map." ”
Hoffman stared at the computer without blinking: "It's being done." ”
Jeff said to a guy who also seemed to be a computer expert, "He's in charge of tracking, so you can help with the monitoring." ”
Hoffman clicked a few times. The distance for positioning is shrinking, from California to Santa Clara County.
"Found it. It's near the airport more than thirty kilometers away from us! Hoffman said.
Jeff reads out: "The target is stationary, with no signs of moving. ”
His men recorded key information.
Then Jeff took out the phone: "If that's the case, it's a simple matter, just call the field team." ”
Jeff's job is only to track or high-end items for security and security, which is to play with intelligence, as for those violent acts. The escort of important personnel has nothing to do with him, and this kind of work that tests the strength of limbs and physical reflexes is usually handed over to the big guys of the field team.
After the call was arranged, Jeff didn't let up. He said to An Feng: "I don't believe it will be so simple, the thief's means are very clever, I have learned about the installation of security equipment of this company, the technology is not strong, but it is not bad, it can be taken away silently, the means are extraordinary." ”
After speaking, Jeff went to look at the surveillance that was called out, several people surrounded and checked it several times, in those five hours, there was no trace of theft, the surveillance screen was always the same as before, An Feng couldn't see anything, the safe has not been moved, is it a ghost?
But he found that Jeff had been asking to play it repeatedly for a few periods of time, and he was very interested, and after watching it a few times, he said, "Stop! ”
Pointing to a place on the screen: "This is the shadow shining in from the window, the time is 3:20, go back an hour and see." ”
The technician stepped back an hour, An Feng seemed to see some clues, and Jeff contemptuously told the truth: "The shadow-like position, the monitoring equipment has been hacked, these are all videos that have been recorded in advance and played in a loop." The interval is more than an hour, and I will play it a few more times. ”
Jeff stared at the video with his eyes and said, "Mr. An, please let other unrelated people leave and let the technicians extract clues from the scene." ”
An Feng said to people other than Hoffman: "You go out first, the matter is confidential, and work as usual today." ”
……
On the other hand, the E.L.I. Security Special Service Team has rushed to the location indicated by the tracking GPS, and beckoned the company's branch, ready to greet the police here - in case there is a fight, shootout, etc., they can keep a case record, and it will be difficult to explain it at that time.
Six members of the Special Service Team put on body armor, a layer of suits over them, and vacuum headsets. Mars, the leader of the group, got out of the car with several members of the team and surrounded the target, the pistol was already in his hand, the bullet was loaded, and he could shoot at any time. Mars said: "In a house in front! ”
"Search the formation forward!"
They immediately dispersed, armed with guns and ready for battle, through the comparison of mobile phones, they were getting closer and closer to the target, just ahead-
"Stop! Exceeded! Mars suddenly raised his fist. The house is still a dozen meters away from them, but the location shown by the PDA has been crossed.
"Search in situ! Fifteen meters in radius! Mars said.
The team members scattered around, and after a few minutes, a sharp-eyed team member picked up an object the size of a grain of rice on the ground, held it up and said, "Where is it?" ”
Mars put away his gun: "Shit! ”
……
The technicians in Clark's group took fingerprints from the surroundings, but found not much. The only way to enter the laboratory is a main entrance, and the other windows are also welded, because it was originally a warehouse, this work is very solid, it is impossible to enter silently, and violence is directly eliminated.
At the same time, Mars's phone called, and after listening to a few words, Jeff said, "You guys come back here first." ”
Then Jeff said to you, "They saw through the tracking GPS. ”
Hoffman, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Actually, there is a set of tracking equipment. ”
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" An Feng frowned.
Hoffman said weakly: "But that requires the machine to start up before it actively connects to the surrounding network signals." This is the only way to track. ”
Jeff casually asked, "What is it?" ”
Hoffman looked at An Feng, not knowing whether to say it or not, An Feng said: "A set of machinery and equipment, equipped with computer chips, can connect to the network. ”
Jeff saw that he was vague and everyone was so nervous, and it turned out to be a classified item, so he didn't want to ask too much. To put it another way: "You mean, only the other person initiates it." And when the program needs to connect to the network, you can use technical means to locate its location? ”
Hoffman nodded: "Yes." ”
"Who else knows the way?" Jeff asked.
"It's just me," Hoffman said, "because it wasn't meant to be tracked." ”
"From now on, please keep it strictly confidential." Jeff said to him, "The theft wasn't very long, and it was as you say. It's obviously impossible for this large piece of metal to get on the plane, and if the other party is flying the plane, it's unlikely, and it's not a jewel worth tens of millions-"
"It's worth a lot." Hoffman emphasized.
"Oh?" Jeff was surprised.
An Feng explained again: "High-tech, but not released. The only people who know the Tao are my employees. ”
Jeff nodded: "It is assumed that there is also the possibility of getting on the plane, but I think the most likely is that after they get their hands, they will obviously have to inspect the goods through some means." ”
"So they'll start the machine?" An Feng thought along his train of thought.
"That's right, use it as a backup!" Jeff said that apparently he didn't have all his hopes pinned on the other party starting the machine and being tracked.
Jeff returned to the surveillance side again, and it had already been proven that he had been passive, and An Feng really didn't understand the point of them continuing to study the video.
But I'm just a layman, and there's no need to talk nonsense in front of former FBI experts.
Jeff glanced at the video a few times, and then reminded An Feng: "In this case, you have to analyze comprehensively, the reason for the theft is either that the news is leaked, or there are internal ghosts." If you can guarantee that no one is releasing this information to the public, it is almost certain that your employees are thinking about it. ”
An Feng thought for a moment and said, "I can't guarantee everyone's innocence, but Hoffman is fine." ”
Hoffman said gratefully, "Mr. Xie believes in me. ”
An Feng smiled slightly.
This guy who lied and filtered it in his head a few times before he could express it smoothly, if he really did it, there would be no more stupid thief in the world, and he had no need to steal it at all, because he knew all the techniques, and the machine was also designed and assembled by him. If he stole it, it would be as strange as taking the initiative to get the door to clamp his head - and three times in a row.
Jeff glanced at Hoffman, he was a mentally strong man and a weak person, and he couldn't do such a thing.
A computer technician staring at the video made a discovery: "According to the analyzed surveillance video and comparison pictures, it is inferred that the time when they hacked the surveillance was about 2:10 to 3:30, and the video content at the rest of the time was very regular, and there was a 90% probability that it was recorded normally." ”
An Feng understood, that is to say, the time when the other party hacked the monitoring was the time when they committed the crime, and the monitoring in other time periods was normal, so that the crime time was shortened to more than an hour, and the monitoring purpose in the house had been fully exerted.
Jeff said: "Switch to the outside surveillance and look at the footage from 2 to 3:30. ”
The technician retrieved it and watched it again, but it was still calm and quiet, and through the comparison of the shadows and environment before and after, it was proved that the video here was not passive.
An Feng wondered, could it really be that he escaped from the land?
Jeff turned his head and asked Hoffman, "Do many people know how to open the door and lock the code?" ”
Hoffman nodded: "There are five people in my group who know the Tao, and there are also people in the other groups. ”
"What about the safe inside?"
"It's just me and the other two technicians, but the others ......," Hoffman scratched his head, not knowing what to say.
An Feng said for him: "He doesn't pay much attention to the secrecy in this regard. ”
The password is also anti-gentleman, but not villain.
"But it also has a layer of fingerprinting." Hoffman added.
"It's useless, copy your fingerprints and use a plasticine." Jeff shook his head and said, "It's almost certain that this was done by an insider." (To be continued......)
