Chapter 30: Hackers
Hongxing Village is an urban village in Hedao, this place was originally called Shitang Village, I don't know when it started, with the name Hongxing Village.
Many people don't know that in the two-story building at the head of the village, there is a special office, in which dozens of monitors are deployed, each monitor is divided into 9 screens, and the scope of monitoring covers every corner of Hongxing Village.
Xiao Lu is the director of the monitoring center, and his job is to be in that office every day, observing what the people in the village are doing every day.
Not only the public spaces such as roads, corridors, and elevators, but even every room in Hongxing Village has been monitored, and his favorite thing is to find out which family is living a married life from nearly a thousand surveillance screens when he is on night shift.
"How? Did you find anything out of the ordinary? β
It was Hong Lao's assistant named Yang Jian, who occasionally came to this room and asked about a man named Bai Jiao.
"Everything is normal, Brother Jian."
"As soon as the man appears, report it immediately."
"Okay, Brother Jian."
He didn't know what kind of big man the person named Bai Yao was, and the cadres of Red Star actually came over every once in a while to care.
The lights in the office flickered and flickered, as if they were going to go out at any moment.
"What's going on?" Yang Jian frowned and asked vigilantly.
"It may be that the voltage is unstable, I don't know what's going on today, it's been like this several times."
But this time it seemed to be more violent than the previous ones, and remembering the horror movie he watched the night before, Xiao Lu was a little scared.
The more you are afraid of something, the more it will happen.
All the electrical appliances went out at the same time with a "pop", and he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he couldn't help screaming.
"Don't panic! Check what's going on. "There was a room of people, only Yang Jian kept his composure.
"Jump...... Tripped? β
Finding that it was just an ordinary power outage, Xiao Lu regained his composure.
"Who's that, go pull up the switch."
"Even the monitors were turned off at the same time." A trace of uneasiness drifted through Yang Jian's heart, and he had a premonition that things might not be so simple.
In order to ensure that the monitor works 24 hours a day, the center is installed with a UPS to provide uninterrupted power supply, if it is just an ordinary trip, it is impossible to shut down along with the monitor.
"Huh? No way? Is the system updated at this time? An employee pointed to the screen and shouted, with the words "version update" written in large letters.
"Contact O&M, I didn't hear that there is an update plan today!"
Everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, but the blue update bar was like a turtle crawling, and every 1% of the completion was like a year.
"Brother Jian, you wait a minute, it'll be fine soon." Xiao Lu rubbed his hands together and smiled all over his face.
Yang Jian looked at him without saying a word with a dark face.
The silent coercion made the air freeze, and he felt as if the sweat had flowed down to his lower back.
"No need, I'll go over now, you keep an eye here, and notify me as soon as there is a situation."
Yang Jian didn't believe that there would be such a coincidence, he intuitively realized that if Bai Jin hadn't been blocked today, they might not meet again in the days to come.
From the monitoring center to Bai Yao's apartment, ordinary people only need ten minutes, and for Yang Jian, it may be possible to reach it within five minutes.
Bai Jin's apartment is on the 7th floor of Building 5, and each apartment building in Hongxing Village is monitored at important entrances and exits, and most of the roads are also monitored.
If it hadn't happened just now, no one would have been able to escape Red Star's eyes.
"Whether it's his ghost or not, just look at it and find out." Thinking of this, Yang Jian quickly drove his legs.
As soon as he arrived downstairs at the apartment, he received a call from Xiao Lu.
"Brother Jian, it's not good! I just contacted O&M and they said that there is no update plan at all today and our monitoring system has been hacked! Hackers disguised themselves as system updates, and now all the monitoring is useless! β
If it weren't for Elder Hong proposing to pay special attention to Bai Yao's movements today, if he, like everyone else, waited for the update to end in the monitoring center, I am afraid that he would not have realized what had happened in the end.
He glanced at the time, and exactly ten minutes had passed since the commotion began!
Yang Jian was very confident in his speed, plus he rushed here as soon as he found out that there was a problem in the monitoring center, and with Bai Jian's speed, he arrived at most two minutes earlier than him, and he must not have left this building yet.
"Time is so accurate, what the hell do you want to do!"
The elevator door opened, and he had just stepped in half a foot, and immediately retracted it.
"No, the monitoring has been completely paralyzed, if I take the elevator up now, in case he sees through this and deliberately takes the stairs to make a time difference, won't it be in his arms? There is only one exit from this building, and the correct way should be to stay here! β
He laughed and said, "If you want to play tricks in front of me, there is no door!" β
At the same time, Bai Yao was in his room, holding a painting and a Bluetooth headset in his ear.
"He didn't come up." A woman's voice came through the headphones.
"It's more cautious than it seems." Bai Jin did plan to sneak up the stairs while he was taking the elevator up.
"He seems to be prepared to stay at the exit, in case he calls for reinforcements, it will be troublesome."
"It doesn't matter, even if reinforcements are called, it will take at least ten minutes, right? Until then, we'll get out of here and execute Plan B. β
"Roger."
In the monitoring center, Xiao Lu looked at the prompts of the system update on the full screen and was distraught.
The screen of one of the monitors suddenly returned to normal, which was installed in Bai Yao's room, facing the entrance.
"Director! Supervisor! An employee suddenly shouted.
"I saw it!" He hurriedly dialed Yang Jian's phone.
"Brother Jian! The monitoring of Bai Yao's room suddenly returned to normal! He's in the room! β
"Yes, alone."
"Wait, he seems to have a note in his hand, and he's shouting at us?"
"Look...... Large screen ...... Curtain ......"
"Century ...... Large...... Escape...... Magic show? β
The next scene made Xiao Lu begin to completely doubt his eyes.
The video didn't freeze without any stuttering, and Bai Jin didn't make any movements, just for a moment, without warning, it disappeared from the screen.
On the first floor of the apartment building, Yang Jian didn't care about anything else, he just wanted to go upstairs quickly to see what was going on.
He just remembered that Bai Yao was a capable person, and he had the ability of a mouse.
Everyone thought that he only had the ability to retrieve objects from the air, and even thought that he only had this one ability.
But think about it from another angle, if you already have an incredible ability, why can't you have a second one?
Yang Jian came to the 7th floor, the door of Bai Yao's room was open, and only a note was left in the entrance position, "Su."

Outside Hongxing Village, Bai Yao got into a black car, and Guo Wan held a laptop and sat in the driver's seat.
"You look happy?" Guo Wan noticed the smile on his face.
"The show was successful, can you tell me how you did it?" Bai Yao said while fastening his seat belt.
"It's not that hard, I just hijacked their monitoring server and ordered the server to play what I wanted them to see."
"That's it?"
"That's all."
"The so-called second ability is actually video special effects, and I really want to see their expressions when they react."
"Who's to say it isn't?"
"Let's go."
"Yes, my God."
