Chapter 545 How to Get Rid of the Stalker
The morning of July 14th.
Bifang did not participate in the live broadcast of the hunting season, and the reason given was the same as before.
After resting in the town, you need to wait until the fourth day to return to the forest to broadcast live.
In the live broadcast room, a large number of viewers who saw the leave announcement wailed, and wave after wave of barrages erupted like a tide.
The deep resentment contained in it frightens everyone who sees it, especially the mixture of multiple languages, which makes it even more terrifying.
[Fuck, another leave? ]
[Lao Fang really doesn’t worry about others surpassing him]
[Lazy, lazy, you are so lazy! ]
[Master Fang, please give me some. I'm addicted. I feel so uncomfortable every day. If I don't have anything to watch, I feel like there's a cat in my heart. I can't breathe and my heart is itchy. I can't sleep in the middle of the night and I scratch my body.]
【Just quit, it won’t work. 】
[I also know that I should quit, but I really can't stand it, Master Fang. I know you are soft-hearted and a kind person. Please give me some time to get through this. I will definitely quit next time. Master Fang~~Wrong, Master Fang]
Since ancient times, talents have emerged from barrage comments, and Bifang liked the comments of netizens.
Putting the tablet full of barrages aside, Bifang picked up his backpack and walked out of the hotel openly. This is the difference between him and Richard and others.
When Bifang goes out, no one follows him, unless they are fans. Fans are easy to get rid of. If he wants to track a top special forces soldier, I'm afraid these fans also have a system.
The backpack was stuffed to the brim. Bifang held the map in his hand and walked to the corresponding location according to the red circle on it. Then he put down the backpack, took out the camera he brought with him, climbed up a big tree, and fixed it at the highest point with a wide view.
Bifang sat on a branch, looking at the bay in the distance, pinching the headset and shouting: "How is the view? Can you see clearly?"
"A little higher, there are branches blocking the way." The computer was placed on Jarrett's thigh, and he was remotely controlling Bifang through the screen above.
Bifang readjusted the camera position: "OK, what now?"
"It's too high again. Lower it a little bit. Right. Okay. It's in this position now. It can be fixed now."
Bifang went around the branches and came behind the tree. He tightened the fixing bolts and stuck them firmly on the trunk. Then he slid down along the trunk and soon fell to the ground.
In addition to Dolphin Bay, there are many other places that need Bifang to decorate.
Dolphin Bay is just one of the bloodiest and most notorious slaughter sites. During the dolphin hunting season every year, the sea water here turns blood red.
There is no exaggeration or rhetoric.
Really, blood red.
From the satellite map, the entire Dolphin Bay looks like a sea of blood.
When Bifang in his previous life saw it for the first time, he truly understood that blood flowing into rivers and blood floating on the ground was not just an idiom on paper, but a scene that existed in reality.
"Huh, another one solved."
Bifang wiped the sweat from his forehead. The weather today was really too hot. It was better in the forest as there was no heat island effect and there were many cool places. However, Bifang was very active and in order to avoid scratches, he could not wear shorts or short sleeves.
"Has anyone followed you today?"
After installing another camera, Bifang sat on a rock, drank some water and rested, then held the microphone and asked.
Bifang acts in the dark, so naturally it needs someone in the open to attract the attention of local residents. The more fiercely Richard and his men resist, the more attention they will attract.
In contrast, Bifang's actions are safer and more covert.
But it couldn't be too intense. The scene of Richard's car being blown up was still vivid in people's minds. Everyone was terrified, as if they were walking on a tightrope, carefully keeping a balance.
It is everyone's wish to expose everything here, but this does not mean that everyone is mentally prepared to make sacrifices.
Whether it's pickpocketing, other misdemeanors, or acts of terrorism, almost all criminals conduct some level of surveillance on their targets before striking.
They focus on observing their target's every move, but in fact, during this time, the criminals themselves are extremely vulnerable - especially if their targets are always alert and extremely sensitive to their surroundings.
Richard's team, who were visiting Japan for the second time, knew this all too well. They knew how unwelcome they were in Taiji Town.
They even felt that every person who glanced at them secretly was a resident who was responsible for surveillance, or a gang member, who was ready to pull a switchblade from his pocket and attack them at any time.
No police would come to help them, and even after death the perpetrators of the crime could not be found.
He was stabbed more than twenty times in the back and it was finally ruled as suicide. Such an absurd thing could really happen.
"How could there not be?" Jarrett smiled bitterly, pressed down the computer slightly and opened the car window.
By the side of the road, a man wearing sunglasses and dressed in all black was squatting on the ground with a video camera in his hand, staring straight at Richard and others who were driving by, turning his head without any concealment.
As the two sides passed each other, he gave a middle finger to Richard and others who rolled down their car windows.
Full of provocation.
Richard looked in the rearview mirror and saw that this was the third car that had followed them closely today. "We have memorized seven or eight license plate numbers alone."
"When we first arrived, we didn't know who was following us."
A few days ago, Richard and others only knew that they were being watched and followed, but they didn't know who was following them.
Whether it was whalers or a Japanese society, I had no idea.
Until this morning, Bifang taught Mandy how to find the stalker and lock on to that special person.
Bifang told Mandy that in order to confirm who was following her, she needed to take a multi-pronged approach while following the TEDD principles.
The so-called TEDD principle refers to time, environment, distance and behavior.
Time: Do you see the same person or group of people repeatedly in different settings?
To determine if this is the case, keep an eye on the time throughout the day.
Environment: Notice anyone whose clothing or body language doesn’t fit in with the surroundings?
Distance: Will the same group of people appear in two locations that are far apart?
For example, is this the same person wearing sunglasses who showed up at the neighborhood store 10 minutes ago, perhaps looking less suspicious, or was he the same person who showed up two hours ago?
Behavior: In the context of surveillance, “behavior” refers to mannerisms and appearance. Look for people whose attire or behavior doesn’t fit in with their surroundings.
Frequently change your schedule or walking routes to check if you are being followed.
Based on these, look for "coincidences" that occur repeatedly at different times and places.
At the same time, you must act with extreme caution - to make the criminals believe that they simply lost the target by accident, rather than the target deliberately avoiding them.
The simplest way is to go shopping in a supermarket farther away to rule out the possibility of coincidence in order to confirm whether you have been monitored - and then go to another area to do something to test your speculation.
Keeping these rules in mind, Mandy successfully targeted one person.
We happened to meet a Japanese tourist who could speak English, and asked him if he knew the guy standing on the side of the road. If he didn't know, could he help them ask.
The tourists were not too alert, but were happy to help Richard and others.
The final answer is.
That guy is the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Department.
"It's not the gangs or the whalers who are following us, it's the police." Richard stroked his chin, "They have already regarded us as criminals."
"Is there any way to get rid of these guys, Lao Fang? Any advice? They are as annoying !" Jarrett angrily grabbed the communication channel and yelled.
He could no longer bear this atmosphere; wherever he went, he was being watched.
Jarrett has always suspected that he was also photographed when he went to the toilet, and he would use this to threaten them to withdraw from Japan.
Bifang hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, there is, but you may not succeed if you try. Besides, the police are out and there are people everywhere. Even if you get rid of them, you will be found soon if you don't plan to hide."
"I don't care. I must get rid of them now and teach them a lesson!"
Bifang nodded, understanding what Jarrett meant .
This kind of action was too frustrating and everyone was angry. Even if they would be caught up soon, they had to teach these guys a lesson.
"Then turn off all your cell phones." Bifang gave the order through the headset.
Everyone in the car did as instructed.
"Tune to an FM station that is off the receiving frequency."
Mandy turned the knob, and the car radio soon became a buzzing sound, with no sound coming from it.
"How is it? Besides the crackling sound, do you hear any ticking sound? Listen carefully." Bifang turned off the headset and temporarily lost contact with Richard and others.
After a while, the headset reconnected.
Richard's deep voice sounded: "Yes."
"What does this mean?" Mandy exclaimed. He believed that Bifang was definitely not doing it on purpose and the ticking sound must have some meaning.
Bifang sighed.
In the age of miniaturization, attaching magnetic tracking devices to vehicles is a piece of cake.
Commercially available tracking devices come in a variety of sizes, from small devices as small as a thumb drive that come pre-installed in a variety of environments and can track the location of mobile phones and rental cars by sending echo messages.
To prevent being lost, all rented vehicles have tracking devices pre-installed inside.
However, if you encounter someone with malicious intentions, it is unclear what this information can be used for.
Tracking devices can be permanently installed in the vehicle or temporarily attached to the frame to communicate with satellites, cellular base stations and servers.
In order to avoid public vehicle inspection, what Bifang just did was to ask Richard and others to listen carefully for any static interference sounds.
Bifang patiently explained: "If there is an occasional 'ticking' sound in addition to the 'sizzling' sound, it means that some kind of mobile device is running in the car."
"This sound comes from the interaction between the mobile signal and the radio speaker wire and coil. I asked you to turn off all your mobile phones and computers just now to eliminate interference."
"None of these signals can penetrate metal, so these devices cannot be hidden under the frame or metal parts of the car - they are usually found in specific areas."
Following Bifang's guidance, everyone began to search.
"Between the windows and hood, under the plastic bumpers, under the bug screens, on the roof, inside the speakers, under the velvet panel on the trunk, under the front and back seats..."
“I found it!”
Ke Ke, who was sitting in the back seat, fumbled around and grabbed a small electronic device that occasionally flashed.
Everyone was excited: "What should we do next? Throw it away?"
"No!"
Bifang narrowed his eyes.
If you believe someone has installed a tracking device with malicious intent and not according to standard protocol, never attempt to remove the device.
Instead, find an excuse to flip the vehicle.
"Change the car."
Find a new car rental company, or pay a large sum of money to exchange for a residential vehicle. As long as the money is enough, everything will be fine.
As for who will provide the funding, the richest Bifang will undoubtedly take the lead.
The power of money. Even the most determined locals will be shaken in the face of this power.
The key to throwing off the surveillance team without escalating the tracking operation into a white-hot pursuit is to make the trackers believe that they have lost the target, rather than letting them realize that they have been exposed.
"To evade the driving surveillance team, avoid driving techniques that are clearly evasive."
After changing to a new vehicle, Mandy, who was driving, nodded seriously and tried to drive the car as smoothly as possible.
Just like normal sightseeing.
"Create an accordion effect: divert surveillance team members by directing them to traffic lights or areas with many stop signs."
The long line of stop-and-go traffic would distract the surveillance team members without alerting them to the plans of Richard and others.
Mandy drove the car onto a congested street, which was the main road of the town and had a very heavy traffic.
Many tourists pass by here, and they keep honking their horns, trying to make the vehicles in front go faster.
The vehicle closest to the target was still very close, but the rest of the surveillance team was eventually stuck at several red lights.
"Once there is no team member to take over, the lone stalker will choose to leave for fear of alerting the target."
Mandy looked back and saw that there seemed to be only two vehicles left out of the numerous vehicles that were clearly visible before.
"The surveillance team often loses sight of the target when it stops or starts , so the frequency of stops should be increased."
“Park your vehicle near the exit and turn right twice before exiting the parking lot.”
Mandy drove into the parking lot and after a moment, started again.
The observer who parked the car behind Mandy was obviously a beat slower. It was not until Mandy's car lights were about to disappear that he thought of starting the car.
“There’s only one left.”
Richard and others looked back and saw that of the first few license plates they remembered, only the last one was left.
"get off!"
"Get off?" Everyone was stunned.
"You are very close to a tram stop now." Bifang said calmly based on the location sent by Richard, "I checked the arrival time of the tram, and it will arrive in one minute."
"Rush onto the platform the moment the train arrives, and jump into the carriage before the person following you reacts."
Richard and others got off the bus in a hurry with their belongings. The moment they walked out of the alley, they saw the tram already parked on the platform.
Everyone rushed over and successfully squeezed into the car before the train started.
Bifang held the headset and asked, "Is there anyone behind you?"
Mandy looked at the follower outside the car who had missed the chance, gripped the handrail above her head tightly, and couldn't help grinning.
"there is none left."
