Chapter 438: Building Momentum on the Internet
Early morning.
When the sun just rose, Wanqing had to go out and drive to work. If she's 10 minutes late, she'll run into rush hour and waste an extra hour or two in a traffic jam.
Today, Wanqing came to the police station as usual. She parked the car, straightened the bumpy police uniform on her body, and slowly walked towards the office hall.
Since the terrorist attack a few months ago, almost the entire Yanjing territory has been nervous. At all times, the door of the police station is always open, and at least two police officers will be on standby in the duty room at all times.
But today it was a little strange, Wanqing passed by the duty room and did not find that there was anyone on duty inside.
Is it that during this time, the wind and waves in Yanjing City have calmed down, and everyone has slowly relaxed their vigilance. Wanqing shook her head dissatisfied, she glanced up at the duty list at the door, and was about to call to ask why no one was on duty, but saw two policemen running over panting.
The person who came was the policeman on duty today.
"Team Wan!" One of the policemen shouted hello.
"You two are not in the duty room. Messing around outside. Wanqing's face sank, obviously displeased.
"Team Wan. You are mistaken. Since last night, the alarm phone of the network monitoring has been ringing non-stop. My colleague over there couldn't be busy, so I called us over to help. Another policeman, who seemed to be more alert, quickly explained.
"The phone is ringing all the time? Are so many people reporting crimes? Wanqing asked puzzled. The so-called network supervision refers to the security protection and management of public information networks and the Internet. Nowadays, the supervision system of the Internet has been very perfect, and on weekdays, few people will call the police in this regard.
"Yes! Wan team. In the early hours of this morning, many large forums and websites were hacked by a group of hackers at the same time. This even includes the official websites of some government agencies. Go check it out. The quick-witted policeman continued.
Wan Qing soon arrived at the Cyber Monitoring Office. On the computer workstation, sure enough, I saw a picture with a link on the front page of many websites. The picture shows a glittering long sword, the shape of the long sword is a bit like the heavy sword worn by knights in the European Middle Ages, the sword is stained with blood, and it looks majestic and terrifying. The words "Sword of Punishment" are also underneath the picture.
Click on the link with the picture, it is a simple and very delicate website, whether it is art or the layout of the website, it is comparable to the international mainstream website. On the front page of the website, the shining sword is still the same, but here it has fallen into the hands of a knight in armor on a war horse. With a fierce glint in his eyes, the knight was galloping across his horse and slashing with his sword. Even through the computer screen, Wanqing could feel the monstrous killing intent on the knight in the picture. At the top of the homepage, there are a few big words written "Sword of Punishment Mercenary Group".
"What's going on?" Wanqing put down the mouse.
"Report to Team Wan. Since the early hours of this morning, many large websites and forums, including citizens' personal computers, have appeared this picture of the 'Sword of Punishment' with a link. Many citizens reported that after clicking on the link to this picture, the personal computer screen will be locked on the website, and other operations cannot be performed. In the hacker circle, there is a very powerful hacker called the Sword of Punishment, and I suspect that this incident is likely to be his prank. The police officer in charge of online surveillance immediately explained.
"How did you deal with it?" Wan Qing frowned, judging by her self-consciousness, this matter would definitely not be as simple as a prank.
"Five hours ago, we reported the matter to the National Cybersecurity Protection Agency. The people above have already taken over the incident. The cyber cop shrugged his shoulders.
"It's been five hours. Haven't the people above solved it yet? Wanqing asked with some surprise.
"Yes! The site is still very strong. The cyber cop nodded with a wry smile. The website that can make the National Cyber Security Protection Bureau deflated has never been heard of since he became a cyber policeman.
"So what's going on now?" Wan Qing pointed to the website on the computer screen about the Sword of Punishment.
The hacking incident has also alarmed non-governmental hacker groups, and many of the country's top hackers have begun to attack the site non-stop. But now the site is intact to this day. There has been no news from the Cyber Security Bureau, and I guess they haven't even found out where the other party's IP is located. In addition to helplessness, there was also shock on the faces of the cyber police.
"The hacker you mentioned before called the Sword of Punishment, does he have any information?" Wanqing asked suddenly.
The cyber police shook his head and said, "We don't have any information about him, but I do know that it was a very powerful hacker who once attacked the Pentagon's cyber defense system in the United States." He is also a wanted criminal on the CIA list. ”
Wanqing nodded thoughtfully. Naturally, the country's network supervision department will deal with criminal acts on the Internet, and as long as there is no blatant threat to the safety of the lives and property of citizens in her jurisdiction, she will not pay too much attention to it.
However, on the Internet, it has long exploded. More and more hackers and international cyber watchdogs are attacking the site day and night. But the website of the Sword of Punishment has always been as solid as an iron wall. Some clever hackers, taking a fancy to the website's defense capabilities, racked their brains to imitate and steal the website's technical code, but unfortunately what they ended up with was a Trojan virus that paralyzed their computers.
The official website of the Sword of Punishment is on the battlefield of the Internet, where you can't see the smoke of gunpowder, but it is still standing. As a result, its popularity has risen in a straight line on the Internet, and it has become the most searched hot search word in the world in just a few hours.
But this kind of mercenary website is not allowed in Huaxia, and once it appears, the state will come forward to erase it, and it is only a matter of time. So, it's just that everyone knows that it's only a matter of time before they want it to fall.
Qin Jun doesn't care whether the website survives or not, because by now, the website built by Kevin has become popular on the Internet and has gained huge popularity. At the very least, no one would underestimate this mercenary organization called the Sword of Punishment.
Yanjing City, a villa located on the shore of a huge artificial lake.
"Boss. Our website has been viewed more than 100 million times. In this way, at least tens of millions of people around the world know about our existence. Kevin stayed up with deep dark circles under his eyes, stared at the computer excitedly without blinking, and after a night of fighting, the results were quite satisfactory.
Qin Jun just nodded indifferently and asked, "Did you find the Liu family tree that I asked you to check?" In Qin Jun's opinion, mercenaries are not hacker organizations after all, and if they want to become famous, bombardment on the Internet alone is far from enough.
"I've found it out a long time ago. I printed it out. Kevin yawned and pointed to a thickly bound A4 sheet of paper on the table.
Fat B willingly picked up the A4 paper printed with the Liu family tree and handed it to Qin Jun.
Qin Jun was stunned, took it and quickly flipped through a few pages, and sure enough, in the list of side branches of the Liu family, he found the name of Liu Chongming, an officer of the Ninth Special Bureau.
"It seems that my speculation is not wrong at all, the people behind the ghost are indeed them." Qin Jun threw the Liu family's genealogy to Han Yu.
Han Yu put the family tree aside, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, squinted at Qin Jun, and said, "Don't look at it, since that's the case." Then let the people of the Liu family become the first business of our Sword of Punishment. ”
