Chapter 372: Keep going, keep going
"Okay, now we're really going to start sinning." As Kelly drove the car, quickly overtaking left and right, and heading outside, Parvati, who was sitting in the passenger seat, still had a shocked expression on her face, pressed her chest, and gasped as she said, "Think about what I would do if I were a criminal - well, first, I'm going to make an alibi for myself." β
"Typical defensive thinking." Kelly teased as she got behind the wheel and overtook a big truck, while Parvati grimaced, "Yes, typical defensive thinking, because I don't want to be targeted by the Wellington consortium just yet - and since you're so interested in the word defensive, can you please adopt a defensive driving strategy?" The last thing we should have tonight is to be targeted by the police - take a detour ahead and drive back to your apartment first. β
Kelly frowned, and although she turned the corner, she was still a little surprised, "Why?" β
"Please, what would you do if you were a criminal trying to make an alibi?" Parvati also showed the side of a top student, typing frantically on his laptop while explaining, "Do you know how much energy the Wellington consortium has? When the lab they funded was broken into and the data was stolen, the Wellington Consortium's private investigators would immediately go into action, and believe me, their authority was unbelievable, and I heard that sometimes the FBI had to turn to them for help. And guess who will be the first suspects? β
"Me." Kelly pursed her lips and replied, "Understood, they have access to municipal surveillance footage." β
"yes, so drop me down at the front junction," Parvati said, "change your clothes, put your office phone, whatever can track you in the apartment, and meet here in half an hour." β
βokγβ Kelly stopped the car at the intersection as she said, Parvati put away her things and pushed the door to go down, while Kelly asked suspiciously, "But parv, how are you going to solve the security camera problem?" β
Parvati blew her lower lip flap impatiently at her, and shushed out, obviously trying to sell off, and Kelly rolled her eyes and merged into the traffic with her super fast and smooth speed, and the camera became a long-range overhead shot, all the way up, up, upβ
The movie doesn't explicitly mention what city Kelly lives in, but judging from the night scene, this shouldn't be New York or Los Angeles, of course, the location must be near New York, otherwise Kelly and Parvati can't say that they will go to Yale and go to Yale, from the overall feeling of the city lights, it's more like Philadelphia, and this is also in line with the practice that the parks of large companies will not be located near first-tier cities, under the rendering of 3D lenses, this visual spectacle of aerial overlook plus the starry sky makes people not only nod their heads to appreciate - Although it doesn't have much to do with the plot, for commercial films, people must have more visual spectacle.
"I've got to see IMAX in the midnight show of this film, bring Jon, Harry, and ......" Charles thought a little distracted while admiring the rapidly changing neon lights, and at that moment, the lights of the entire city went out in an instant as the lights came on at one point, accompanied by a sound effect that seemed to be a ball deflated.
"Oh roar," there was a burst of emotional laughter in the theater, and even Alain laughed: in order to avoid surveillance, the whole city was blacked out, which is too much, right? Sure enough, he is a genius geek who has no criminal experience, and he is a big deal as soon as he makes a move, and there is a kind of ridiculousness that he doesn't know the world.
In the darkness, the camera rotated and descended, returning to the intersection where it had risen before, and with the panicked voices and brakes, the camera moved forward and moved quickly, and with the faint light of the stars and moon, a figure paused on the road full of panic screams, and then ran to a dark intersection.
"Hey." There was the sound of brakes in the distance, Parvati's Indian accent screamed, and then the lights lit up and the dark shadow came out - it was Kelly in a hoodie, she sped into Parvati's car, and then the car drove forward in the darkness, and with the trembling light of the streetlights back on, it drove out of the city.
βnicecoatγβ Parvati also changed her clothes, and as she drove, she looked at Kelly's clothes, and Kelly looked a little guilty, "I took it from the nearby A&F - it was a mess there, I should have paid for it-"
Looking at the beautiful interior of the car, her eyebrows jumped, "nicecar-"
"Audi R8, I've wanted it for a long time." Parvati patted the steering wheel, then laughed, "Don't look at me like that, remember, you can't leave clues for the detectives in Wellington." And the car was insured and lost in such a city-wide blackout? Meiya will definitely pay for it. β
βokγβ Kelly still looked a little uncomfortable, "Don't tell me how you stole it, I don't want to know at all - but, parv, stealing the car?" Leave the whole city without power? So familiar with Wellington's investigative department β are you sure you only worked as a hacker for a few months before you went to Harvard? β
"Don't ask me that, trust me, you won't want to know the answer." Parvati said solemnly, her round face looked quite happy, and many of the audience laughed, and the loud and cool rock music sounded, and in her laughter, the car accelerated forward, accelerated-
As the atmosphere quickly cooled, Parvati hit a sudden brake and she had to stop - because there was a power outage ahead, traffic lights were failing, and cars were stuck in a long line.
The camera went up again, in a long line of traffic, the music that had just started weakened again, and Kelly asked in a helpless voice, "Okay, then tell me, 'genius', have you ever thought that the inevitable result of a city-wide power outage is a big traffic jam?" β
Still in the overhead traffic, an Audi R8 'ticked' twice aggrievedly, as if it was Parvati's response, and many viewers laughed. The camera moved to the city again - as the lighting gradually returned and the traffic began to move, the camera gradually began to play fast, and finally switched to the car in a flash, the driver had been replaced by Kelly, the speed was very fast, the car was almost speeding on the highway, and in the rapid overtaking, Parvati, who was sitting on the side, had opened a white glass terminal and pushed up the holographic projection of a small building.
"The Yale-Wellington Advanced Biology Laboratory," reads, "was established in 1987 with a grant from the Wellington Foundation...... blahblahblah, I found the record blueprint of the building on the Internet, it has four floors. β
She raised her hand, and a three-dimensional line modeling suddenly separated the four floors, "I don't know if it has been remodeled in the later stage, but from the original design intention, the laboratory must be on the third floor - pay attention to the small room, which is obviously prepared for differential pressure equipment." Happily, though, the office floor should be on the ground floorβ"
With a wave of her hand, Kelly distracted the blueprint, and Parvati exclaimed unhappily 'Hey! Kelly grabbed the projection directly to the car window and said with voice control, "Search for Noguchi Jack's Facebook page." β
"Searching for you." An inorganic voice said, and soon, a picture of a typical Asian youth appeared in the window, and Kelly ordered, "Sift Lab." β
In a flicker, a row of search results came out - photos of Noguchi, with thin eyebrows and squinting eyes, in the standard selfie pose in all corners of the laboratory: at the door, on the stairs, in the hallway, in the laboratory......
Seeing that the poses were all exactly the same, but the background was different, there was laughter in the audience's screening room, but in the main hall, only some of the younger rookies laughed. Cameron and Steven. For an old man like Spielberg, you can't expect them to know everything about this new meme. As for Charles and others, who treat Facebook as another home, they are almost pumping out with laughter, this meme is sudden and quiet, which makes them feel intimate and adds to the 'cool' feeling of "Codename Shero". Now it is quite common to ridicule technological phenomena such as Facebook in film and television works, but around 2010, the trend of selfies has only just taken shape.
On the big screen, Parvati glanced at Kelly wordlessly, Kelly still raised an eyebrow expressionlessly, she twisted the steering wheel and quickly overtook another car, "Look out that window, Noguchi is in civilian clothes, that's where he processes the data - outside the window is bushes, very nice, the office is on the first floor, we can even go in through the window-"
Parvati's hey! With a sigh, comparing her body, there was another soft laugh in the theater, and Kelly rolled her eyes, "I know, I know, I'll go in alone, you just wait for me in the car." β
"It's like saying, mom must give herself a doughnut - here, if the information is password protected, plug in the USB flash drive, give me a call, ok?" Parvati said satisfied, throwing a small USB stick to Kelly, who put it away and turned the car into a corner, slowing down. By this time, the town had entered the downtown area, and many pedestrians could be seen coming and going in cafes and bars, while Kelly and Parvati pulled over, Parvati walked into a cafΓ©, and Kelly put on her hood and ran up a trail like a jogger.
Seeing the students reveling in the college town, and the two 'agents' who smoothly blended into the crowd, many viewers' hearts hung in the air - especially when Kelly passed by with several patrol cars, they were even more nervous: at this time, they had been convinced by this 'relatively real' setting, and began to worry about the result of Kelly's face being remembered by the police: in that case, Wellington would definitely not let her go, and Kelly's own safety, her family's safety might also be threatened.
However, Kelly didn't attract much attention, and she managed to find the 'Yale-Wellington Lab' - but instead of being unguarded like most Yale school buildings, the lab was fenced and iron-walled, and while wearing gloves and a mask, Kelly whispered an expletive, pressed her headphones, "Parv, you have to get in with a combination lock - damn Wellington." β
βdamnγβ Parvati in the coffee shop cursed, her hands darling over the keyboard, and she lowered her voice, "But the good news is that I've gotten into the local security camera system - there are no cameras around the lab, God praise New Haven - and, of course, Yale's backward security system, cover my face and see if I can flip over, Kung Fu Girl." β
βokγβ After picking up a stone and throwing it through the iron gate, after making sure that no alarm system was triggered, Kelly took a few steps back, luckily, and then took a deep breath, trotted forward, a front flip, and the person stepped on the carving on the railing lightly, and then, as if it was a gymnastics performance, she held the carving above to borrow the force, and the whole person relied on the strength of her arm to go up softly. Flip over, as if doing a pommel horse's inverted bending arms, legs straight up, until hooking another carved corner at the top, with the power of the toe hook, the whole person soared up, like a high jumper, over the iron door, the toes loosened, both hands immediately held the toes of the carved just now, with this grip cushioned the power, her feet delicately kicked the solid part of the middle of the iron door, another somersault, standing firmly on the ground.
βholyβββ
"Wow-"
"That's cool!"
"Is this really something that a real person can do?"
"You hired an acrobat to be a stand-in, right?"
After a burst of noisy exclamation, the audience suddenly fell silent, and after a while, I don't know who took the lead, people suddenly applauded - regardless of the difficulty of the action, at least at this moment, Kelly's performance completely convinced the audience, these audiences are used to the kind of well-equipped stunt action that shoots a hook and easily kicks the wall, and this is purely an action idea of attacking empty-handed, whether it is from the chic and smooth degree, or from its whimsical creativity, At this moment, people have the urge to 'wow': indeed, this solution is completely unexpected by the audience!
"Okay, it's a good deal." With the mask on, Kelly's voice was a little muffled, and she ran to the side of the building, and the camera returned to Parvati, "Now look for the director's office, if there is one- oh, **, **, **!" β
βwhatοΌβ Parvati tensed, "What happened?" β
The camera cuts back to the laboratory, but the first thing that catches the audience's eyes is not Kelly, but the thin-eyed Jack Noguchi, who has always maintained the same happy expression, is standing by the window holding a cup and reaching out for a selfie, and only the mobile phone with the back cover camera, the screen is naturally facing out of the window, the camera gives a close-up on this mobile phone screen, and then slowly zooms out, revealing the crowd behind Noguchi talking and walking, and Kelly bending down and hiding under the bushes.
"They didn't go! Damn, it's already half past ten in the evening! These hateful overtime maniacs! Kelly lowered her voice and said angrily, "What's even more annoying is that - I see, it's a flat office, the professor's computer desk is in the same office as the students, and you know what other surprises are there - the professor is not gone!" β
"God......" Parvati groaned, covering her forehead. "Do you want to wait for them to get off work?" β
"Ive, go and see Noguchi's Facebook." Kelly said Parvati immediately opened the page β Noguchi posted another status on the front page, which was the same selfie he had just taken, and the caption below read, 'It's going to be an all-nighter again, enjoy my coffee.'"
The audience burst into laughter, and Parvati on the screen was also at a loss for words, "damn - what now?" β
"Question, if I'm connected to the building's public wifi right now, will you be able to access their computer?" Kelly asked. βdamnοΌ No wifi! What kind of lab will not provide wifi! β
"It's also possible that there won't be broadcasts," Parvati said quickly, "wait, you said the professor's computer is on?" ββSo I have a way, remember the USB flash drive I gave you? β
"It's still there." Kelly said, she bent down and ran down the side of the building, "Are you thinking about what I'm thinking?" Room? β
"Yes, computer room, find the computer room, connect the USB flash drive to the port, I can give you what you want in three minutes." Parvati also got out of the cafΓ© and walked towards the car, "Remember, cover your face and wear glasses, Wellington will be full of surveillance in the building, and I don't want to be approached by the police again - neither do private investigators, seriously, private investigators are worse than police - go outside, don't go inside the building, there should be no cameras outside, but it's hard to say inside, if you're right, Wellington must be monitoring all the labs that are being funded for similar projects." β
"Understood." Kelly had already run around the building, "The computer room is not on the first floorβ"
As she spoke, she found an office with no one in it, climbed up from the windowsill with ease, and then stood on the window edge and climbed to the second floor.
The lights on the second floor were not turned on, but from the light of the street lamps outside, it was still easy to see the equipment inside, Kelly looked at the equipment and rolled her eyes, "They are still using the first generation of photon impactors." β
The tone that seemed to be a woman comparing clothes provoked a soft laugh, and she walked lightly on the decorative narrow side of the extension like a cat, "The second floor is the operating table--well, the negative pressure laboratory-"
She turned to the side, and could vaguely see a large glass display box in the laboratory, filled with an unknown liquid, Kelly looked at it curiously, and then, a tentacle suddenly reached out of the liquid and jerked the glass box hard.
With a somewhat eerie soundtrack, this volley startled many people, and Kelly was so frightened that she fell backwards, as if she was about to fall, and she staggered a few steps before she stabilized her figure, which also made people breathe a sigh of relief.
"Whatthe-" Glancing back at the glass case, Kelly shook her head and flipped straight onto the third platform, "Hah! I've found the computer room, parv. β
Pushing the window and successfully finding a door that didn't close securely, Kelly easily opened a gap and slipped through the window, and in the darkness with only a little light source, Kelly turned on the flashlight and browsed back and forth through the rows of cabinets.
Although it is not clear what she is looking for, the audience still can't help but be stimulated by this environment, and secretly hope that Kelly can quickly complete the task and escape, and live up to expectations, Kelly did quickly aim at a port, "P, it's already docked." β
"I see." Parvati was rapidly typing one instruction after another, and a blank screen of the computer frame suddenly popped up with multiple small panes, all of which were full of various small software interfaces. The audience could tell at a glance that Parvati should have hacked into the system. "I'm in the background, now I'm searching for DS genes, give me three minutes - oh, **!"
βwhatοΌβ Kelly, crouching by the port, asked, "What's going on?" β
Opening another page, staring at the surveillance footage on it, Parvati's voice became heavy, "They found someone entering the computer room - now there are two security guards heading towards the computer room, they will arrive in 30 seconds, 29, 28 - it's too late, Kelly, unplug the USB flash drive, run!" β
Glancing at the USB flash drive, Kelly looked at the door again. "Are you sure it will only take three minutes?"
"What do you want to do?" Parvati's voice panicked, "Kelly? Kelly? Kelly? β
The camera pans forward, past the thick door of the computer room, a guard with a big waist and a round waist pressed his hand on his waist, and walked towards the computer room with some vigilance, obviously, this is not a daily patrol, and when he approaches the door of the computer room step by step, the music becomes more and more tense and more and more rapid - it is obvious that Kelly's first real martial arts scene should be about to start.
