If a piece of eucalyptus is compared to a food chain, then at the top of the food chain is undoubtedly the judge.

The judge is the prosecutor. And then the police. Prosecutors often file indictments with court only after they have sufficient evidence to prosecute, so judges rarely dismiss indictments submitted by prosecutors.

But the police are different. Many of the crimes that are already well-defined in the eyes of the police are full of loopholes in the eyes of prosecutors.

Prosecutors often reject police applications for prosecution. Therefore, David was not surprised to hear the news that Anne was frustrated to bring that the court had not accepted the indictment.

He calmly accepted reality. After all, he'd been rejected countless times. The only difference is that in the past, it was the District Attorney's Office that refused, and now the court refused.

"It doesn't matter. You go back and have a good rest, and we're all back to rest. Raise your spirits, and we'll continue tomorrow. David comforted Anne in turn.

On the other side, e.. y。 Brooklyn finished his morning's work and went outside the computer room, which had been converted from an office, to check on the progress.

In order to build a reliable intranet system, Brooklyn had made full preparations long before the arrival of Scorpio.

The office was renovated last week. At this time, the office corridor was filled with equipment that Brooklyn didn't recognize, and there were cardboard boxes neatly stacked against the wall next to them.

The ground was crisscrossed with a jumble of wiring, some of which were electric wires, some of which seemed to be network cables.

Walter was holding a laptop and standing in the office, operating something, and next to him was a little fat man, also holding a computer, with his fingers flying.

The two communicated while operating, occasionally giving a few orders, and Bob led a few people to immediately move a row of iron shelves and get busy.

Brooklyn stood at the doorway and watched for a moment, then quietly returned to the office. After a while, Bob also returned.

"How? Is it still going well? Brooklyn asked, putting down his pen.

"It didn't go well." Bob said, shaking his head

"According to Walter's requirements, we also need a set of independent air conditioning equipment, he said that if it is built according to our requirements, the temperature in the computer room will be very high, in order to ensure heat dissipation, independent air conditioning equipment needs to be installed in the computer room."

"I've got people to prepare."

"Nothing else. According to Walter, it can be set up in two days, and the firewall can use the one they use, which is enough to protect against 99% of attacks. ”

"It could take another two days to commission. However, the commissioning had to wait for the installation of the air conditioning system. ”

"If nothing else, it should be ready for use next week. In addition, he suggested that we find a network security management for daily maintenance. If there is a problem, it is good to communicate with them and solve it in time. Bob concluded.

"Is it okay to delegate it directly to them?" Brooklyn asked.

"Yes. But they charge a lot more. ”

"How tall?"

"$1,000 a week. They can guarantee that there will be no problems and will be able to contract future maintenance and updates. Bob was well prepared, he continued

"I asked Walter and he told me that we don't need to set the security level of our system as high as it needs to be, and that it would be a waste to ask them to do security management. He suggested that we just recruit a few college students directly from the university. Brooklyn shook her head

"You can't save this money. Just entrust it to them. ”

"If the system doesn't go wrong, it looks like the money is in vain, but when it does, it ensures that the problem can be solved in the shortest possible time." In Brooklyn's opinion, it was worth the money to entrust Scorpio with follow-up maintenance and updates.

It's like insurance, when nothing happens, it's a waste of money, and if something happens, it's worth the money.

If he just wants to be in e.. Y's position as chief justice is messing around, so naturally there is no need to spend this unjust money.

But he wasn't. He's going to do something here. Digital office is his passion for e.. The first step of the transformation must be done well, and there must be no problems.

Besides, even if he is unfounded, spending $4,000 a month to make friends with a group of geniuses like Scorpio is worth it.

Not to mention that the money is not taken from Brooklyn's personal pocket, it is paid by the court. Bob relays Brooklyn's decision to Walter, who is not happy to have an extra income, puts down his computer and goes straight to the door.

"Judge Brooklyn, frankly, I don't think it's necessary for you to entrust us with the follow-up maintenance and updates." Walter said with a frown

"It's such a waste. No one would ever want to attack the network of a district court. You don't have anything here. ”

"And the defense system I've designed for you is overspec, more secure than many cybersecurity companies use on their own. Even if you don't update it in the future, there will be no problem. Brooklyn looked at the honest Walter, his eyes lit up, and he even wanted to ask Walter directly

"Are you interested in coming to the court?" It's a pity that there is no suitable position for him here in the court.

"I know. You have a point, too. But I don't want that 1% chance to come to fruition. None of us can guarantee that any hacker will get bored one day and just want to spy on e.. What secrets are hidden in Y's network, are you right? Brooklyn Road.

Walter stopped talking. He had to admit that Brooklyn had a point. Walter himself is a hacker, and he invaded NASA when he was eight years old, wasn't it out of curiosity?

From the point of view of pay and return, the invasion e.. Y's network is a 'loss-making business', according to logic, people who have the ability to invade successfully will not look down on e.. Y things in the network, people who can see these things, don't have that ability.

But the reality is illogical. Wasn't it a whim for him to invade NASA in the first place? He got nothing from that invasion but put himself on the FBI's regulatory list.

"Okay, as long as you're not too expensive." Walter finally said.

"Of course." Brooklyn laughed

"I believe in your abilities, it's great value for money." Walter nodded a little awkwardly, hurried back to the computer room, and continued to work.

At noon, Brooklyn asked Bob to bring them lunch, which he had ordered from a Mexican restaurant. It's not expensive, but it's generous.

After lunch, Brooklyn hid in his office and looked through the reviews on the Internet. Last night's Caron show had a mediocre response among the public, not as much as the reaction to Cedric's verdict.

However, there are many professionals who have expressed their opinions on the issues mentioned in the Caron show. Brooklyn Lee's name is no longer confined to New York State.

Brooklyn was not discouraged, which he had anticipated since learning of the nature of the Caron Show. The Caron show was his first official appearance in public, and in addition to leaving a basic impression on the public, it was more important for him to be known to professionals in the field.

Coupled with the blessing of the Lyleigh Crewe incident, when the influence of Caron Show is completely digested, he will no longer be the unknown magistrate.

………………………… Anne Aldington and the Angus, who are fully investigating by the Eucalyptus team, are not going well, but Jerry's side is surprisingly smooth.

Over the weekend, Jerry went to the police station to take a note, accusing Bennett of premeditating the murder of his mother and attempting to harm him.

After getting Jerry's transcript, the police called Dexter, another person involved in the incident. Dexter is honest about what he sees.

He even confessed his lies to the police.

"I lied about returning the items Jerry Winston had left the day before, when in fact I was going to teach Bennett a lesson." Dexter said frankly

"Before that, the patrolman told me that Bennett had been sneaking around Rita's house, and I was afraid he would hurt Rita and the children. I was going to warn him and tell him to stay away from Rita and the children. ”

"But when I went in, I found Jerry Winston lying on the ground, bleeding profusely. Just as I was about to call the police, Rita came over. ”

"In order to prevent Bennett from hurting Rita, I could only lie and say that I came to return the things and coax Rita away."

"While I was checking Jerry Winston's signs and preparing to call the police, Bennett was about to sneak up on me and I got caught." What Dexter said is basically in line with the facts that the police have.

The matter is basically clear. Bennett first prepares to murder his mother, known to Jerry, and then fears that Jerry will leak his secret, and prepares to murder Jerry, but is broken by Dexter and saves Jerry.

Despite Bennett's insistence, he refused to admit that he had murdered them intended, instead insisting that he had just accidentally pushed them.

But it didn't work. The police are already preparing to close the case and submit the materials to the District Prosecutor's Office. Jerry didn't come to work this morning, but went to the police station to do the final work of sorting out the records.

After confirming that everything was correct, Jerry signed the transcript and offered to meet Bennett. The police readily agreed.

When the two college friends met again, the atmosphere was a little awkward. The police thoughtfully exited the interrogation room and closed the door without them.

"Jerry, listen to me. I really didn't mean to. Bennett explained anxiously

"I, I don't know what I was thinking."

"I'm just hot in the head, and when I come back to my senses......"

"By the time you come to your senses, your mother has already been killed by you." Jerry picked up

"I was almost killed by you."

"Bennett, I always thought you were a kind person, it was your mother's blow to you that made you feel inferior and sensitive, and I used to believe that you would make a difference."

"But it turns out I was wrong."

"You're going to pay for what you did."

"Good luck, Bennett." After Jerry finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.

"Jerry!" Bennett was in a hurry, standing up and yelling at Jerry.

"I really didn't mean to!"

"I was just careless! I didn't mean to hurt you! Jerry didn't stop for a moment, walked out of the interrogation room, thanked the police, and drove away.

Back to e.. Jerry of Y looked a little sullen. In the interrogation room, he was resolute, but Bennett had been his good friend anyway, and it was not pleasant to be betrayed.

It makes him look listless in everything he does. Nelly simply stopped giving him a job, but let him study with a copy of the trial record.

After work, Jerry took the subway back to Bennett's house to get his car to go. Standing in the courtyard, looking at this place where he had lived for a while, Jerry had mixed feelings in his heart.

Through the window, you can still see the dry dark red blood on the floor. After greeting the police guarding here, as soon as the car drove out of the yard, Rita next door heard the movement and walked out.

She didn't know what was going on, but vaguely realized that her next-door neighbor seemed to be in trouble.

Rita originally thought it was Dexter who had returned, and Dexter had promised her yesterday that he would come over tonight.

Seeing that it wasn't Dexter, Rita went back into the house. Dexter, whom Rita cares about, is still at NYPD headquarters.

He was going to go home, but was pulled by David to talk. After learning what happened to Jerry, David was very concerned about this case and specially called the police station to take care of it.

Just now, the police station called and told him that the investigation of the case had been completed and that he was preparing to sort out the materials and submit them to the District Prosecutor's Office.

Dexter was mentioned in the conversation. When David heard Dexter's name, he asked the police to send him the materials and not to hand them over to the District Attorney's Office for the time being.

David called Dexter over just to find out what role this Bay Area killer played in Ben Eucalyptus.

He even wondered if Bennett had done it. David was right to be skeptical, but it wasn't Dexter's doing.

Dexter doesn't do such bloody things anymore.

"The governor's son was involved in a murder and almost became a victim, and I heard you saved him?" David didn't ask directly, but took a roundabout approach.

Dexter honestly repeated what the precinct had said.

"I've seen the information, this Bennett is said to be a timid and inferior person, do you think he really did it?" David asked with a deep groan

"Does such a cowardly person really have the courage to kill?" He's not a coward. There was a dangerous beast lurking inside him.

He himself is a demon in human skin. Dexter muttered inwardly, but there was a confused expression on his face

"Frankly, I don't know. I was just going to teach him a lesson and warn him to stay away from Rita and the children. ”

"It turned out that he was about to kill Jerry Winston."

"It was Jerry Winston who said Bennett had murdered his mother. I don't know. "Of course, I'm 100% sure that the beast killed it!

I was really surprised that he was able to endure until now. Dexter silently added in his heart.

"You live next door to him, have you heard anything about?" David asked again.

"Nope." Dexter shook his head, not fooled

"I didn't go to Rita very often during that time, and Rita's house wasn't really close to Bennett's house, so we didn't hear anything."

"Why did he wander around Rita's house?" Dexter shook his head

"I don't know." He's looking for a target, ready to hunt! After tasting the taste of blood, the beast inside him was completely awakened.

But he didn't know that he had recklessly stepped into my territory! David asked a few more questions, and Dexter answered them without flaws.

This made David sure that Dexter was not involved in the case. He had no choice but to let Dexter go.
