Chapter 10: Puzzles

These days, the R&D department is like a holiday. Except for a few people who were held and disappeared, all other people involved in the "leak" were released. Although the gloom of this unfortunate incident has not yet dissipated, most scholars believe that a new leader of their own choice can solve the problem, and there is even hope that the bad will become a good thing.

Especially for the information engineering group. Their work has suddenly become heavy these days, but they are happy to do it.

"All right, friends." Xiang Shan waved his hand: "Simulator writing is already on the agenda. Then the calculation of recreating the real alien computer was also advanced. Very good. I think we'll be able to get an alien motherboard out next week. Alright, let's adjourn! ”

Xiang Shan said this, waving his hand. The scholars dispersed, and everyone was excitedly discussing the new ideas.

The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade. The hackers in the "risky" community are also among the best in the human race. Moreover, their path of learning and studying technology is completely different from that of these scholars, so the proposed plan really makes these scholars shine.

Xiang Shan just breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was slapped on the back.

"It's amazing, mountain...... I mean Director. David Klein said excitedly: "It is possible to find foreign aid in this situation. Oh, my God. ”

Xiang Shan waved his hand: "You also want to participate in the work here?" ”

David's main work at this stage is to study "Ogon itself". It is hoped that the method of archaeological research will be used to speculate on the means and purpose of the construction of the "Ogon". And David, who is a NASA engineer, actually taught himself archaeology because of this.

This is absolutely something that has never been done before, "space archaeology"? "Extraterrestrial archaeology"?

But it is foreseeable that if there is no other extraterrestrial garbage, then in one or two hundred years, "Ogun" and the "Orenmila" and "Obatara" brought by "Ogon" will be the only research object of this special archaeology.

David smiled: "I'm happy for you, and I'm happy for myself, Director." In the 'Olon Mira' project, there is definitely a reference to the 'Ogun' civilization. It can't be without a shred of information about the 'Ogon' civilization itself, right? ”

Xiang Shan grinned: "It's really hard to say." The Obatala and Orrenmira projects share a fair amount of data. Maybe all of this code was used to piece together the genetic information of the creatures in the Olrenmira project? ”

"Who knows?" David said, "I wish there wereβ€”but then again, it's because of that that that I find it all the more strange." The 'Ogon' civilization is only a few decades ahead of humans. But I can't imagine that humans will be able to build such a project as 'Ogun' in a few decades......."

Xiang Shan said: "Maybe their planet doesn't have an internal war?" They made peace early? Or is the environment of their planet extremely harsh, so the entire civilization has to join forces to study deep space navigation? ”

"It's unlikely. There's nothing in Ogon that looks like a signal transmitter. Once this thing has traveled far away, it will not send a signal to its home planet. Unless these aliens are using spaceship hulls for celestial wires - but I bet a madman would order this cult technology. A spacecraft that doesn't emit signals towards its parent planet can't be an experimental ship. ”

The two chatted a few more words, and Xiang Shan continued to walk towards the lounge.

At the door of the lounge, Xiang Shan paused, then sighed.

After the wooden temperament on his face faded, the "tiredness" erupted from the bottom of his heart like a flood of water.

There was even a hint of boredom in the corner of Xiang Shan's eyes.

The young man knocked on his forehead: "Hypocrisy, Xiangshan." Sentimental. It's obviously you who got the cheapest. ”

With that, he pushed the door open and entered.

Surprisingly, Jing Hongtu was already in the lounge.

Xiang Shan sat opposite Jing Hongtu.

"Why are you uncertain, Xiao Xiang." Jing Hongtu handed Xiang Shan a cup of tea.

Xiang Shan scratched his head and picked up a few things from Hanuman's group.

Jing Hongtu smiled: "Oh, that's good, Xiaoxiang." I know that I have to win over people who have no foundation first. That's right. ”

Xiang Shan covered his head: "Teacher Jing, don't knock me......"

"It's not about stumbling on you. I do think you're doing the right thing. This Hartmann is a technician who has been sent here purely and does not belong to the Rama project, and does not have any interests in the park. His only goal is to 'make achievements and earn qualifications'. He has no other purpose and will not support anyone. It's a real boost for you. ”

Xiang Shan leaned back on the couch. After a while, he asked, "Really?" ”

"Of course, if you want to make this Hartmann your confidant, it's absolutely impossible. Although, according to you, he is not popular. But to be here means that there must be a boss who absolutely trusts his technical level in the FBI. And his personal ambition is over there. Only when you're in Hanuman work group, you can see him as an aid. Jing Hongtu explained, "But during this period, he can really be one of your biggest helpers." ”

Xiang Shan rubbed the bridge of his nose: "Am I still doing it right?" ”

"You said that you saw all this clearly, and then deliberately tried to win over that person, I think it's credible." Jing Hongtu said.

Xiang Shan looked at the ceiling.

After a while, he changed the subject: "Then again, Mr. Jing, what do you think will happen after 'Zhurong' is caught?" ”

"Get on trial and go to jail." Jing Hongtu didn't even think much about it, and replied directly: "There will be no other results." The only suspense is the difference between 'where to be tried' and 'where to serve your sentence'. ”

Xiang Shan said: "I have occasionally exchanged a few words with him in the past few days. I think he's a very talented guy and he's very technical. Is it possible for him to ......, you say?"

"You mean whitewashing?" Jing Hongtu shook his head: "There is no chance." ”

Xiang Shan said: "There is no secret department that will recruit him for the sake of his technical level?" ”

Jing Hongtu asked rhetorically: "The Hartmann you just talked about, is the technical level hard?" What is his treatment now? It's still an active participatory. ”

Xiang Shan said: "Surely there will be none?" Other countries are too? ”

"The more secret the department, the stricter the management." Jing Hongtu nodded: "It's as if in these years of war, there are no more homeless people and death row prisoners used as cannon fodder." Why? Because the combat effectiveness of the army comes from the degree of organization. These guys may be brave for a while under deterrence, but they can't perform tasks that need to rely on the organization, which reduces the organization of the entire team and reduces the combat effectiveness. They would rather have some technical skills, but absolutely obedient to orders, than such a restless element. ”

Xiang Shan said: "But there are also whitewashed hackers in our country who open network security companies and even provide services to government departments, right?" ”

"That's because he didn't make a big mistake that endangered public safety when he was 'in the sea', or he made a mistake and didn't go unnoticed. At most, the police have mastered some crimes that need to be reported by the victim in person, and at this time, it is okay to turn a blind eye for the sake of his technical level. At this time, the government hired them according to a business model, which is equivalent to outsourcing part of the business to a company. At this time, if something happens, you can also find someone to be accountable in accordance with the procedure. But if a hacker is recruited into the system, who is responsible? Who is recruiting? The commander at the time? Isn't this a string of thunder? No one wants to do it. Jing Hongtu explained.

"In other words, because no one dares to take this responsibility, no one will extend an olive branch to 'Zhurong'?" Xiang Shan tried to make his expectations sound calmer.

Although he guessed a rough idea by himself, after listening to Jing Hongtu's analysis, he was a little confident.

Jing Hongtu nodded.

So Xiang Shan put this piece of the puzzle together in his heart.

In the evening, during dinner, Xiang Shan found Lei Chaoyang in the cafeteria.

"Colonel Lei." Xiang Shan walked over naturally: "Can you do me a small favor?" ”

"A little favor? Let's start with what. "Lei Chaoyang is very careful.

Xiang Shan said: "I want to see Zhu Rong." ”

Colonel Lei was very strange: "This ...... I don't think that's true, right? ”

"Nope." Xiang Shan said: "I have already inquired clearly. If Zhurong appeared in the Eastern Hemisphere, then it must be a team that set off from the park of the Rama Project. And you, the UN military staff officers who coordinate this team with the uniformed forces of the countries, will follow. You're the de facto commanders, aren't you? ”

Although Xiang Shan is the nominal commander of the Hanuman project, he has no actual command authority, and at most he has the power to make a decision/take the blame, that is, the sergeant staff officers will work out the plan before he decides "yes" or "no" - and generally only "yes".

Senior Colonel Lei hesitated a little: "That's right. But if it's in the Western Hemisphere, it's from somewhere else......"

"I'm not asking you to tie 'Zhurong' to the park. I wanted to talk to him after I caught him. Xiang Shan took a deep breath: "After Zhu Rong is arrested, most of them will be restricted from removing electronic products, and then locked up somewhere to serve his sentence." For a hacker, if you don't touch the device for a few years, maybe your skills will be useless. I want to take this opportunity to talk to him. It's also about work. It's like I'm rushing to connect with that community, which might be gone in a few days. It's time to do it early. ”

Colonel Lei smiled: "Director Xiang is really a scientist...... Talking to him, is it really that useful? ”

Xiang Shan nodded: "Useful." If you can find a way for me to follow the team when I catch Zhurong...... I will make a special note in the report after the fact. ”

Xiang Shan stared at Colonel Lei. It's one of the few chips he has. Although the action report is also written by the secretary, he can really influence something.

Colonel Lei thought for a moment and nodded: "We can be regarded as friends." Since it is for the sake of revolutionary work, I can't help but help with this favor. ”

- Good.

Xiang Shan said excitedly in his heart.
