Chapter 119: Counter-reconnaissance
"I say it again, put down the gun and stand back!!"
Gu Ji completely ignored the threat of the police, buried his whole body behind the blonde woman, and kept approaching the escalator along the wall, like a predatory beast, with hair all over his body exploding, his ears fluttering from side to side, and he was on high alert.
Seeing that he didn't get in, the middle-aged policeman slowly moved his body and gave his companion a look, who understood and outflanked him from the side.
The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, slowly approached in a strategic formation.
Seeing that the two of them didn't listen to the warnings and were still squeezing his safe space, a trace of crazy blood flashed in Gu Ji's eyes:
"If you move again, I'll detonate the bomb!"
"Good! Okay, I'll put down the gun, don't get excited! β
Seeing that Gu Ji's "eyes" were wrong, the middle-aged policeman was so frightened that he hurriedly spread his hand, slowly lowered Glock 17 to the ground, and at the same time signaled the panicked crowd around him to take the opportunity to retreat, and then slowed down his tone and played the "emotional card".
"I think you're very young, you should be about the same age as my son, and you should be at the age of college at this time......"
"You step back too!"
Who knows, as a special police officer, Gu has long been familiar with all kinds of police tactical interception techniques, and after scolding another young policeman who wanted to take the opportunity to come up, he quickly grabbed the blonde woman and boarded the escalator, "Don't move!" Don't keep up!! β
The middle-aged policeman frowned.
Although the purple-clothed young man in front of him has a very young voice, he is very experienced in crime, and he has never exposed his body too much, and whenever he and his companions deliberately outflank, the purple-clothed young man will quickly change his position and obstruct the shooting angle.
"Attention, attention! Suspect found on Route 7 Amhurst Avenue ......"
Seeing that the middle-aged policeman was reporting to the command center for help, Gu Ji immediately quickened his pace and retreated, came to the exit of the subway, and dragged the hostages out.
When you reach the ground, your vision is instantly clear, the sky is blue and cloudless, the sun has just risen, the shops are bustling on the sidewalks, and a police car is parked on the side of the road at the subway entrance, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch.
The blonde woman in her arms had already been scared and cried, and she kept begging in her mouth, hoping that Gu Ji would let her go.
"I'm sorry, I was forced too."
Gu Ji whispered, casually put the lighter into the woman's hat, his head kept turning, like a golden eagle that had strayed into a wolf pack, his eyes looked around, vigilant around, and saw another police car coming at the intersection not far away, and immediately let go.
"Honestly stand still and wait for the police!"
With a few words, he turned around and ran to the neighborhood.
"Stop! Don't run! β
"Otherwise, shoot!"
The police car in the distance also spotted the suspicious Gu Ji, immediately stopped the car, raised the muzzle of the gun and scolded, seeing that the warning was ineffective, decisively pulled the trigger.
Bang! As soon as the gunshots rang out, the surrounding passers-by hurriedly screamed and avoided in panic.
Although the blonde woman was scared to death, she didn't dare to move at all, she didn't know what Gu Ji had put in her hat, so she had to stand there and wait.
The bullet grazed past Gu Ji's side.
He stumbled past the vendors and scurried into the neighborhood lane.
If you want to avoid being tracked by police cars, you can only find a way to take a small road.
In the narrow passage, an Asian uncle who was kind to the letter was looking at Gu Ji who was fleeing with a confused expression, and when he saw the other party running in front of him, he hurriedly leaned against the wall and took the initiative to get out of the way.
Passing through the narrow road, I don't know what the morning market is in front of me, there are all kinds of shops and vendors, and this kind of crowded place is convenient for Gu Ji to escape.
He turned and hid in a corner trash can, took off his purple sweatshirt and threw it in, revealing a white T-shirt, and pulled out a gray crumpled cap from the inside and put it on his head.
Pretending to be calm, he hurried out and took out a map from his pocket to look at it.
He now understands the usefulness of the two options given by the system: a mask to cover his face and avoid being wanted by the police, and a map to help him quickly grasp the escape route.
Although the mobile phone also has a location map, the map display on the small screen is far less convenient than the A4 colored paper.
"Line 7, Elmhurst Station ......"
Gu Ji vaguely remembered the point that the police shouted when they finally asked for help from the main station, "Here, it turns out that I am in Queens now." β
Flushing, a well-known Chinese food district near Elmhurst Boulevard, is no wonder you see a lot of Asian faces here.
Relying on the instantaneous memory ability of the 18.1 central nervous system attribute, he quickly memorized the map around Elmhurst Avenue, went around the block to the main road, and saw the street signs.
The map route in my mind began to gradually merge with the field.
At this moment, an alarm bell rang in the distance.
Gu Ji lowered the brim of his hat slightly, and calmly walked behind two middle-aged white men with big bellies, and the police car passed by him like this.
The police in the United States do not have obvious differences in police types like most countries in the world, such as traffic police, criminal police, patrol police, special police, etc., they are basically multi-competent.
Although the work is messy, in an emergency, because there is no need for multi-department coordination, it is unified under the command center of the headquarters, which is extremely efficient.
Generally speaking, after receiving the first police car report of the criminal's escape call, the command center will quickly dispatch more than a dozen police cars nearby according to the location of the crime and the size of the case, and block and outflank them together at the highest speed from different locations, directions, and distances.
So.
Gu Ji has temporarily passed the first hurdle: the state police surrounded the scene.
He is about to face the second level, the whole city wants, and the police who arrested him have also risen from the New York police to the FBI, that is, the FBI.
Because U.S. law does not have the power to investigate cross-state cases and large-scale vicious cases.
This kind of live broadcast bombing case is extremely bad in nature, the social impact is very large, and it is a blatant provocation to the safety of citizens and the credibility of the state, which is already a serious terrorist attack and will definitely be handed over to the FBI for handling.
At that time, the opponent Gu Ji faced would not be as simple as an ordinary policeman.
Don't forget, the FBI is both a law enforcement agency and an intelligence agency.
It is equivalent to the domestic anti-terrorism + political security + criminal investigation + economic investigation bureau, and various technical investigation methods emerge in an endless stream, even not losing to the CIA.
Among them, the hostage rescue team HRT, which is the emergency response team, is deployed throughout the United States in four hours, which is no joke.
By the moment when the FBI was serious, the police car, helicopter, and network communication reconnaissance were deployed, and the location was locked.
Individual power can never compete with the violent organs of the state.
What Gu Ji can do now is to try his best to find a way to deal with the three bombs buried in New York City and the bomb around his neck before the FBI mobilizes in full force.
The time is, four hours.
It's not just HRT national deployment time.
What's more, the bloody countdown of the level time this time is too short, a total of more than eight hours, and he must compress the action time of each round, otherwise even if the death is rolled back, the remaining time will not be enough to complete the task.
Thinking of this, Gu Ji first raised his wrist, set a countdown of 3 hours and 50 minutes on his watch, and then took out his live broadcast phone from his pocket.
More than ten minutes passed.
Because the screen in the live broadcast room has been black, the barrage of discussion has long been crowded and exploded, and the number of people in the live broadcast room has also increased from 1,000 to more than 2,000, doubling again, after all, there are still a few people watching the live broadcast abroad, and it is now the morning in the United States.
[Why is there no picture?] γ
[Is Brother Fruit really dead? γ
[The anchor quickly opens the live broadcast! ] I'm in a hurry! γ
[Could it be that he has been caught by the police?] γ
[I'm in a hurry! Hurry up and turn on the live broadcast, I want to see the live situation! γ
[Let's be sober, let's be sober, turning off the live broadcast is obviously more conducive to the anchor escaping, open the screen live broadcast, and the police will lock your location according to the environment in minutes! ] γ
β¦β¦
Gu Ji is not an anchor, and he has no time to care about the questions of water friends in the live broadcast room.
He clicked on Passion Fruit's homepage from his avatar, found the private message button, and browsed around, only to find that all of them were urging him to open the screen, and asking if he was dead, or spraying his text.
So he spoke directly:
"I rummaged through the backstage, but I didn't find the bomb tip you said."
γ? Finally alive? γ
[This isn't passion fruit's voice, it's his assistant?] γ
[You're cheating!] Open the screen! γ
[Say that the cheating brain made the donkey kick?] Are you helping terrorists? γ
[Art needs to be cruel: why do you want to turn off the live screen, I have been entangled for a long time, whether to press the button of the detonator...... It's a great opportunity for you to make a name for yourself, isn't it? γ
Looking at the red barrage at the top, Gu Ji frowned slightly.
"There is no requirement in your rules that you must open a live broadcast, stop talking nonsense, tell me what to do next!"
When the sailors heard the tone of his voice, they were instantly shocked.
the groove.
Obviously he was tied to his neck with a bomb, and he dared to talk to terrorists in such a tone, and those who didn't know thought that it was the bomber who was threatened!
Perhaps the bombardier was also surprised by Gu Ji's performance.
There was a delay of four or five seconds before he sent the barrage.
[Art needs to be cruel: it seems that I have lost my eyes, I thought that the most clever of the three of you was the Xia Guoren, but I didn't expect you to be the calmest one, interesting......]
Until this moment.
The audience who was in the live broadcast room just now reacted that this passion fruit assistant successfully escaped from the New York police surround and escaped unharmed, although it was relatively easy to use hostages as a threat.
But anyone will say that when this situation is really encountered in reality, the first reaction of most people is probably a blank brain.
Gu Ji flipped to the backstage and finally saw the first prompt.
[U.S. Tennis Open Main Court (Note, this information is only for you to read, and cannot be published to others in any way, otherwise it will directly detonate the bomb)]
He hurriedly pulled out his map to find the location of the arena.
At the same time, the bomber's floating screen barrage appeared again in the live broadcast room:
[Art needs to be cruel: you took advantage of my rule loophole, it doesn't matter, but you always lose a lot of fun without the picture, in order to make this live broadcast full of drama, I decided to reveal your coordinate position every hour and force the screen to be turned on, the time is five minutes. γ
[Also, please don't ignore any of my barrages, or I'm not sure if my finger will be biased next time, Boom!] hahahaο½ο½γ
When Gu Ji saw these two words, a cold fierce light flashed in the corner of his eyes.
It's obvious.
The bomber was toying with him, sloping him around like a dog.
But he didn't easily fall into the opponent's oppressive rhythm.
Instead, he straightened up and grinned.
"So, you've admitted to being a hacker? A software that can control the software background of the transnational live broadcast platform at will, hide the IP address, and change the location of the mobile phone at will without being discovered by the official, which requires extremely high computer technology. β
"This kind of person will not be a nobody, especially from the fact that you created such a live broadcast explosion, it proves that you are an arrogant person, who likes to be public, and is eager to be noticed by the outside world, oh yes......"
Speaking of this, Gu Ji suddenly paused and touched the induction bomb on his neck, "One more thing, the top hacker who can make bombs." β
"Although guns are not prohibited by U.S. law, states strictly prohibit high-powered weapons such as explosives, grenades, and mines.
"But the electronic detonator is not something that ordinary people can get, not to mention that the remote-controlled bombs you make are very exquisite, such as the IED remote-controlled bomb detonated in the subway, which not only needs to make the bomb itself, but also needs to improve the telephone motherboard, which is not self-taught from a few times on the Internet."
"So, I speculate that you must have a military background, maybe you are a bomb disposal expert, maybe you have special operations training, and combined with your extremely high computer technology, it shouldn't be difficult to lock down your identity, right?"
Gu Ji, who has mastered the skills of Marine EOD, knows the difficulty of making this kind of bomb.
The first is the structural improvement, the vibration motor in the telephone motherboard needs to be disassembled, and then the positive and negative circuits linking the vibration motor are linked to the detonator in the IED, in order to ensure the successful detonation, it is usually necessary to set up two groups of detonators;
The second is information remote control technology, to set up a telephone and information whitelist, in addition to the remote control number, other numbers of calls and messages are all rejected;
If this method is adopted in developed areas, the police will soon use technical means to check all the calls and messages in the explosion area one by one, and lock the target.
Therefore, clever criminals often use more stable technical means to detonate IEDs: network remote control detonation technology, which requires a certain level of computing technology.
Combining the above points, it is easy to draw the conclusion of what he said:
Hacker, bomb expert, military training background!
Gu finished a few words.
The sailors in the live broadcast room were all dumbfounded.
[, this person is so awesome, a few words to lock the identity of a terrorist? ] γ
[Everyone hurry up and call the police and let the FBI catch this bomber!] γ
[Really awesome, you can still think calmly after being like this, and you are so clear about the criminal process, I'm afraid this person has done it too, right? ] γ
[I doubt that it has been replaced, the real assistant has died a long time ago, and now the police are playing, so he doesn't dare to start the live broadcast! ] γ
[What about the bomber?] Why don't you come out and respond? γ
[Hahaha, it is estimated that it was said that it was broken on the spot, and I was scared when I knew it? ] Pack up and run! γ
[I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry! Do you dare to come out and respond? γ
β¦β¦
Many sailors in the live broadcast room also watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, and kept urging the bomber to respond, but after a few seconds, it only sent back two commas, as if it was caused by randomly tapping the keyboard, much like being angry and smashing the keyboard by mistake.
To be honest, this is exactly what Gu Ji wants to see.
If you mess with my mentality, I'll you with mentality.
Although the rules explicitly prohibit him from seeking help from others, it does not say that he cannot self-analyze, as long as he tells the key information about the bomber, there will definitely be enthusiastic netizens to report the crime.
Even if no one pays attention to it, after the screen recording video is posted on the Internet, it will also be seen by the police and the FBI, and when the state takes action, it will be equivalent to indirectly helping Gu Ji deal with the mastermind behind the scenes.
As for why he wasn't afraid of the bomber being angry and killing him directly?
Very simple.
As analyzed in the previous discourse, this terrorist needs too much attention.
Now, two of the three "puppets" that the bomber is looking for have died, and only Gu Ji is left, how can he kill him so easily, after all, once the person dies, there is no way to continue to spread, and the bomber's true purpose cannot be achieved.
Really.
There was silence for nearly half a minute, the remote-controlled bomb was not detonated, and the bomber finally responded.
[Art needs to be cruel: I'll admit, your mind is indeed powerful, but do you think this information alone can lock me down?] Hehe, you're so naΓ―ve, let's spend more time looking for bombs, you're left with ...... In 46 minutes, the coordinates will be exposed, good luck! γ
Gu Ji ignored the bomber's "taunt".
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he has found the US Open main court on the map, which is located in Queens, where he is located.
Putting away the map, he pulled out Barron's own phone and looked up all the information about the field.
Intelligence analysis always comes first before any operation is carried out.
I don't know if I don't check it, and I'm shocked when I check it.
Although the US Open is not as popular as the big four leagues in the United States, there are still hundreds of thousands of die-hard fans, and the stadium is almost full during the tournament, and this year's Open will be held from August 31 to September 13 at Arthur's Court in Nacola Park in Flushing, Queens!
It is also the largest outdoor open tennis court in the United States, with a capacity of nearly 24,000 people watching at the same time.
And there is a game today, the time is 9 o'clock in the morning, and it looks like the game starts in less than two hours, if the bomb is buried here and detonated, it will definitely be one of the most terrifying bomb attacks in history!
"From the map of New York, Elmhurst Avenue is only two stops from Flushing Park, about three kilometers or so, and it takes 40 minutes to walk and 25 minutes to jog......"
When I clicked on the properties page, I found that my skeletal muscle movement was weakened by 8.3%.
That's right, the owner of this body is too young, only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his body is not fully developed, so he is not as good as Herman and Wang Xueming.
It is still the king to conserve more physical strength.
He was likely to need to continue to fight at a high intensity today, so he turned around and went to a 711 convenience store near Main Street.
Before the police were wanted in the city.
Gu Ji decided to buy some food and water first, so as not to have a physical exhaustion and unable to run halfway.
While the clerk was checking out, he lowered the brim of his hat and walked into the store, avoiding the camera as much as possible to capture his face.
When I came to the food area, Gu Ji chose sugar, chocolate, butter cheese, and nuts, which are lightweight, high in calories, and easy to store, which can reduce the burden on the backpack.
After settling the bill, he walked to the side of the street, casually stopped a yellow Ford out of the rough car, opened the door and sat in the driver's back seat.
"Hey boy, where do you want to go?"
The driver was an American uncle in his thirties and forties, neither fat nor thin, wearing a black baseball cap, and it could be seen that he was in a good mood and his tone seemed very cheerful.
"Flushing Park, hurry up."
Gu Ji originally planned to directly say the location of the stadium, but when he thought that it was still live broadcasting, if he said a clear destination at this time, if the police knew about it, wouldn't it be clear that the stadium would be controlled soon.
On the one hand, it is easy to be caught, and on the other hand, it also increases the difficulty for him to find the bomb.
As for Flushing Park, that's a lot bigger.
It is the second largest garden park in New York, which includes not only the tennis center, but also the New York Science Museum, art museums, theaters, and wildlife centers, covering a total of 5.1 square kilometers, which is almost comparable to BASF's production base.
If you want to completely surround the entire park, I'm afraid you will have to transfer the entire New York Police Department.
"Don't worry."
The driver glanced back at Gu Ji, smiled and nodded, directly put into gear, and with one foot of the accelerator, the car drove out.
After the car started, Gu Ji kept turning his head to look out the window, paying attention to the surrounding environment, and took out a map for comparison, continuing to strengthen his memory.
The sailors in the live broadcast room also kept asking.
[The first explosion site was in Flushing Park?] γ
Who knows where that is? Do you have a beautiful answer! γ
[Did you all come from the country to climb the ladder? γ
[There are a lot of people in Flushing Park, and the terrorists are determined to fight against the United States! ] γ
[Isn't this anchor afraid that the police will eavesdrop in the live broadcast room? ] γ
[If the police are really here, the first one should catch the bomber first, the anchor is also forced, he will die if he doesn't listen to the arrangement, die and escape, who will not choose to escape? ] γ
[The anchor talks more, interact with us for a few words, and maybe can help you come up with ideas! ] γ
β¦β¦
Not only the water friends in the live broadcast room were asking Gu Ji, but even the driver opened his mouth several times to find a topic, but he never answered.
According to the public security investigation science, he summed up several major points for improving anti-reconnaissance capabilities:
Adaptability to the environment, map acquisition, vigilance, systematic handling of personal belongings, efficiency without leaving a trace, social engineering skills, and self-discipline.
And there is one important thing in self-discipline: purify the flow of information!
Too much redundant information flow will reduce a person's thinking and judgment, which is a taboo in counter-reconnaissance.
From being chased by the police to the present, Gu Ji has been strictly following these points.
Observing the neighborhood environment, reading a map of New York, guarding cameras, shopping for essential items, etc., and now, he is thinking about how to enter the tennis court in advance to find bombs, and where to have extra energy to manage the audience and taxi drivers in the live broadcast room.
Seeing that Gu Ji ignored it, the driver was not angry, and turned on the radio casually and listened to the radio.
"Urgently insert a message, according to the front desk reporter, at about 7:05 a.m. on September 8, it is suspected that three young men carried out a bomb attack in the Elmhurst subway station, and 5 people were injured at the scene, from the victim's oral account, the three suspects were black, Asian and white, of which the black man died on the spot, the Asian was shot by the police, and the remaining suspect fled in an unknown direction, wearing a purple sweatshirt......"
γ? And this is the beginning of the city-wide wanted? γ
[It shouldn't be wanted, it's just that the news media exposed, the American media is like this, no matter what your government says, attracting the public and making money is the last word! ] γ
[Taxi driver: Dangerous! γ
[Hahaha, the anchor hurry up, in case the media reads out your characteristics, it's bad!] γ
[Do you know what the anchor looks like? γ
[The police must know, right?] After all, he confronted the police in the subway station just now, what characteristics does he look like, what clothes do he wear......]
[I think he is so calm, he must have changed his clothes a long time ago, and I seem to have heard the sound of undressing before!] γ
β¦β¦
When Gu Ji heard the radio news, he also "chuckled" in his heart.
However, as the barrage said, fortunately, it was only a media report, and the police did not really start the city's arrest, and he estimated that the time would be at least half an hour.
Half an hour later, as long as the police can't catch him, the matter in the live broadcast room is almost fermented on the Internet, and then the media pays attention to the spread, and the government is furious, and it is the moment when the FBI wants him.
"Brother, it's here."
Ten minutes later, the driver stopped near the entrance to a verdant park and stopped the meter.
Taxis in New York are unusually expensive, costing a few dollars at any cost.
Fortunately, the cash in "Barron's" pocket was enough, and after taking out the money, Gu Ji quickly opened the door and got out of the car, found a random direction, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Until after the taxi leaves.
He came out from behind the trunk of the tree, followed the map markers, and walked towards the Arthur tennis court.
Today is Friday morning, US time.
Young white-collar workers and students are basically working and going to school, and even so, the flow of people in the park is very terrifying, except for older uncles and aunts, and tourists from all over the world, the most of them are US Open fans.
Now it is less than two hours before the start of the game, and many people are squatting nearby in advance to prepare to enter the stadium.
Gu Ji first looked at the surrounding environment.
Because it is a park square, the terrain is very open, and once he is pursued or exchanged fire, he will not be able to quickly get rid of the police or the enemy in a short time.
Fortunately, it is the second largest forest park in New York, and the nearby greenery is very well done, and the dense bushes and metasequoia will become natural shelter, which can be used as a cover, and you can quickly run into the Flushing subway station or grab the car directly from the main road to leave.
Come to the vicinity of the venue.
There are more crowds gathered here, with a large number of fans buying merchandise and food at sponsor stores and shops, and some people playing tennis and taking photos at the pre-match event.
Gu Ji walked down the stairs of the shop and found that the stairs leading to the arena were being guarded by two sturdy security guards.
The audience in the live broadcast room naturally heard the noisy sound of the arena:
[What movement is so noisy! γ
[Can the anchor turn on the camera and let us see where it is?] γ
[There are many venues in Flushing Park, so you should have entered a certain venue!] γ
[Could it be a tennis court?] It looks like there's a U.S. Open today! γ
[No matter where you are, the anchor hurry up and let the surroundings leave quickly! ] γ
[Didn't he shout at this time to expose his position? ] γ
β¦β¦
There are now nearly 3,000 people watching the room in the live broadcast room, and it's not surprising that some American students or locals know about the main court of the US Open.
However, it also reminded Gu a little bit: time is running out.
He left the shop passage and was about to see if there were any side doors or windows on the periphery of the venue to sneak into the venue, but he happened to see a middle-aged male cleaner coming out of the staff passage to go to the bathroom.
Gu Ji lowered the brim of his hat and followed.
He was going to stun the cleaner and change into his clothes and sneak in, but he didn't expect this guy to seem to be too hot and hung his coat on the top of the door.
He immediately pulled it off and put it on.
"Fack! Who took my clothes? Old Willie? Please, don't kid me, I'm! β
Behind the door came the angry scolding of the male cleaner.
But Gu Ji had already run out of the toilet, thinking of blending in through the employee passage, but he didn't expect to be stopped by the security guard at the door again:
"Who are you? How to wear only one coat? β
"I'm sorry, I fell on the road and my pants got dirty, and old Willie asked me to help!"
Gu Ji pretended to be anxious, put on his coat and walked inside.
The security guard also seemed to know old Willie, and when he heard that it was an acquaintance's introduction, he didn't think much about it.
After breaking into the court, I looked at the huge bowl-shaped court, surrounded by tall stands of more than a dozen floors, and in the center was a verdant lawn, on which a layer of blue plastic tennis court was paved.
There is also a white sunshade on the top, and a large display TV hangs on each side.
"The venue is so big, where can I find a bomb......
[Art needs to be cruel: Dangdang, you still have 20 minutes to expose your position~]
