Chapter 541: Single-Parent Families and the Adolescent Dilemma

"So, Caroline was ever curious about his faith?" Hannah asked.

Ms. Sabatak was silent for a long time, and then replied reluctantly, "She started asking these questions about a few months ago, but I don't want to talk about that person."

Speaking of this, she choked up, and seemed to have an epiphany because of this, "I asked her to check the Internet by herself, isn't it?"

Jack knew that her emotions were likely to collapse in the next second, and quickly motioned to Hannah with his eyes to continue questioning.

"So, as far as you know, has she ever been in contact with people in the ** Lin community, met or communicated through the Internet?"

"I don't know." Ms. Sabatak cried, "I don't feel like I know anything about my daughter now. ”

——

Half an hour later, inside the operations center, Jack moved a chair and sat across from Dana Moge.

"It's a psychological profile I did, rebellious teenagers, single-parent families who lack supervision because of their father's curiosity about certain religions, bullying, longing for identity, and being angry and need a cathartic outlet.

All of this led her to some extreme sites, where she was eventually recruited as a member of 'Dark Jihad' and used as a suicide bomber. ”

"It seems that this should be the case, although the relevant organizations of Ace Ace did not come out to declare that this was their doing, but the NSA (National Security Agency) did find some clues in the social network of extremists in their surveillance.

There were a few words before the attack, and after the attack, there were some vague references to their 'victory' in New York! ”

Jubal said and looked at an NSA liaison officer with a visitor card next to him, "Is there anything else the NSA has to add?" ”

"Yes." The eldest sister, who had been here all night with the analysts, said with red eyes.

"Last year they had planned to inject cyanide into cans in some supermarkets in the U.S., but it was blocked, and it looks like it's making a comeback this time."

In the end, it should be the leader who summed it up, Dana Moge pondered for a moment and said, "This plan hits the nail on the head, the food supply chain is a very easy target, and there are fifteen thousand restaurants in this city, as well as supermarkets and small grocery stores that are not so numerous, but easier to target.

We're not going to get them all out of business, and if there's a second or third attack, it's going to be unimaginably panicked, guys, time is running out. ”

It always felt like this was similar, as if he had heard it many times, but Jack didn't think about it, his eyes were staring at the big screen without blinking, and his brain was racing.

If he is a keyboard warrior who is not satisfied with venting on the Internet and wants to do something in reality, then what would he be willing to do as a Shabi teenager?

Thinking of this, he asked Xiang Jubal, "What about the analysis of that website by IT logistics, no matter how many attacks the other side is going to launch, it depends on how many recruits they have like Caroline, can we find them one by one along the network cable?" ”

Jubal shrugged, "I can't paraphrase what the nerd computer experts (Nerd) are saying, what anonymous offshore servers, masking IPs through proxies or virtual private networks, or whatever. ”

His words made everyone look at each other and laugh, isn't it quite accurate to retell.

Jubal continued, "According to them, it's unlikely that they will be able to breach that website and find the login's IP, but they are analyzing Caroline's public social accounts to see if they can trace some suspicious comments, and the results should be coming soon." ”

"Yes, there are already results." The Indian guy who had met before walked over with the laptop that Jack and Hannah had brought back that belonged to Caroline.

"I looked through all of the poor girl's social media accounts, and it seemed that she was in a very serious situation of isolation, and most of the comments under her account were negative and aggressive bullying, but it also made some of the friendly messages stand out.

For example, this 'Cloudcover33' seems to be very friendly, and although it is very subtle, she provides most of the likes on her account. ”

"Tell me you've identified this 'Cloudcover33'." Dana Moge stood up and leaned over to the laptop screen.

"Yes, Tara Shagas, 15 years old, and guess what, very coincidentally, she happened to be in the same school as Caroline Sabatak."

The Indian guy projected a document onto the big screen.

"OK, send me her home address, it's almost 8 o'clock, hopefully we can get there before she leaves for school." With that, Jack and Hannah hurriedly left the large office.

Twenty minutes later, the Dodge Hellcat stopped on the side of the road in a normal neighborhood, and Hannah in the passenger seat looked at the house number and nodded, "This is it, the one with the red door." ”

Jack followed her gaze and saw that the door was just open, and a middle-aged white man was about to go out with a large bag.

"A single-parent family, a busy working father, an adolescent daughter, alas, is very similar to Caroline's profile."

Hannah pulled the car door, took a few quick steps across the street, and stopped the middle-aged man.

"Police? I'm sorry, I'd be happy to help, but now isn't the time, I have a morning meeting, and Tara is going to school and can't be late. ”

The middle-aged man lowered his head, looking like he didn't want to deal with them.

"Strictly the FBI, Mr. Shagas, my advice is that you should call your company right now to ask for a leave of absence, and by the way, call Tara's teacher and help her take a leave of absence."

Jack directly showed his ID, "It's better for us to go into the house and talk, the matter is very serious, Tara, as a minor, needs to talk to us accompanied by a guardian, the neighbors should be about to go out, there are many people here, what do you say?" ”

At this moment, a chubby, curly-haired white girl walked out of the house, saw her father chatting with two strangers through the iron gate in the front yard, and walked over with some hesitation.

"Tara Shagas? You're a friend of Caroline Sabatak, right? Hannah took a half-step forward and said to her.

"Yes, I know her." Tara seemed to have a premonition that something was wrong, and her eyes wandered.

"Did you know that Caroline was murdered yesterday?" As Jack asked, his eyes stared at the other party without blinking, carefully observing her expression.

"Nope! How is this possible?! Tara subconsciously took a half step back, and her voice involuntarily became a little sharp and harsh.

I like to deal with "stupid" teenage criminals the most, and any questions are written on my face directly, Jack looked at the girl's father and tilted his head slightly, "So, you really don't invite us into the house?" ”
