Chapter 72 Sales
24 hours later, things became clear.
Because of sewers and people's love of pizza, Britain is already plagued by rats, and rats have a strong ability to resist rodenticides. Even the Prime Minister has kept cats to protect against rats. The worst-hit industry is animal husbandry, and people even pick up sniper rifles to defend their ranches. Many ranchers hire rat catchers to remove rats from their territories at a price of 0.5 or even one pound, and this has even formed an industrial chain.
Some of the mice were purchased by scientific research institutions, but they prefer artificially raised mice, so most of the captured mice were humanely or inhumanely destroyed. The mice that attacked the Blade were ordered from a mouse catcher in Edinburgh and transported to London by a truck. During the two days of transportation, more than 2,000 mice did not eat and only drank a little water. Not eating for two days does not reduce the vitality of the mice, but increases their predatory desire.
The criminals released the rats in the basement of Building 3, the sewer pipes of Building 3, and the heating pipes of Building 3. The criminals obviously knew the structure of the house better than Isa. The sewer pipes of these buildings are connected. The drain outlet of the basement of Building 3 and the drain outlet of the basement of Building 2 are separated by only a wall, and the two pipes merge downward into a large pipe. The criminals blocked the main pipe with objects, and opened a rat cage facing the drain pipe of the basement of Building 3. As long as the gate of the rat cage is opened, the rats will come out to the sewer outlet of the basement of Building 2.
The heating in the UK is separate. The distance between the pipes in the old house after renovation is very close. There is no need to chisel the wall, just remove part of the exhaust port to connect the heating pipes of the two rooms.
The owner of Building 3 is in Norway, and Building 3 is a vacant house. The community watch team explained the situation of the neighbors to Isa, but after all, it was a temporary office base, so Isa didn't care.
The attackers used remote control devices to open the rat cage and set fire to the cars in the parking lot. As for the mystery of the package delivered by the deliveryman, it has not been solved yet, and it is not certain that the package that has been burned to ashes is the cause of the rat attack.
After reading and listening to the summary discovered a big problem: the attackers knew them very well. The attackers knew how many people were at the base at the time and knew the location of the base. When the attackers were setting up in Building 3, they always chose a time when they were not at the base. The most important point was that Blade's only valuable hard drives and computer host would only appear at the base this morning. The attackers knew the time when the hard drives would arrive very accurately, and only Isa and Fiona knew this.
They exchanged opinions on data issues three days ago and discussed setting up their own database to get all the information related to the police department and counter-terrorism to the blade server. Because it includes photos and videos, the data is huge and it is not practical to rely on data transmission. Fiona suggested using hard disk copying to copy all the information from the police department, then copy it to the blade server, and finally destroy all the hard disks.
Because of Isa's high authority, they did not need the police department's consent to copy the data, so only Isa and Fiona knew about this. The criminals grasped the time accurately and implemented the plan completely, which was premised on knowing the blade very well. How did the criminals do it?
Isa connected with Mark: "Did you lose any special equipment?"
Mark replied, "Yes. A powerful laser bug." After Blade was attacked, Mark knew he could no longer keep it secret.
Isa wanted to curse. If she knew that the criminals had such a bug, she would have taken appropriate confidentiality measures. Isa asked, "Why did you hide it from us?"
Mark explained, "I thought this laser bug was an experimental product of the British bacteria. Before Dune confronted you Blade, Mediterranean asked me to conceal the existence of this bug. The reason is that the chip of this bug was stolen from an ally by the Butterfly News personnel. Once the bug falls into the hands of an ally, it will cause sprains and difficulties in intelligence work. The device we stole is an experimental product developed based on the chip, and the purpose of giving it to us is to test the practical operation of the device. Therefore, we cannot admit that this bug is the device we lost."
Isa said: "You should tell me."
Mark said helplessly: “This is an order, I’m sorry.”
Isa: "Although there were no casualties in this attack, it made us Blades look disgraced and laughed at by everyone. Your MI5 boss even gave me a business card of a stray pet shelter and suggested that we adopt a group of cats to protect Blades."
All Mark could say was, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Isa asked, “Who are these people?”
Mark said: "At first we suspected it was the Chameleon Team, but the behavior of this group of people is in stark contrast to that of the Chameleon Team. We haven't figured out their identities yet."
"I need to take a call. I'll contact you later." Isa answered the call: "Hello."
"Isa! Haha, I heard that you were a great beauty 20 years ago, and you are still very beautiful now. Are you interested in dating me behind your husband's back?" Electronic voice.
Isa responded with a smile: "Of course. Shouldn't you tell me your name before the date?" Isa made a gesture and Fiona started working immediately.
"My name is Thresh." Thresh said, "The private conversations you and Fiona have had these days have made my heart beat fast. Unfortunately, Fiona has a close relationship with my brother Liang Xi. I have no choice but to ask you out."
Isa asked with a smile, "Handsome guy, how are you going to date?"
Thresh asked, "How about five million pounds?"
"What do you mean?" Isa asked.
Thresh said, "Hard drives , twelve hard drives, the information inside is very explosive. I believe that wealthy Arabs will offer a huge price to buy them. However, since you are so attractive, of course I will consider you first."
Isa: "It's too expensive, how about 100 pounds?" This is crazy, who would buy this information?
The first type of person is a terrorist on the run. He already knows he is being hunted. He confirms that he is being hunted from the information. Is he crazy? The second type of person is the relative of a bad guy who was shot dead. Do they want to commemorate the death? The third type of person is someone who is ready to become a bad guy. There is no information about you on the list. What are you going to do with it?
This is a pirated stand-alone version of the data. Even if you get the hard drive, you can't tamper with the data of the police department, and you can't update it regularly. The information that can be entered into the system is all visible to people. Arabs are rich, but they are not stupid. Or do you want to modify your DNA or fingerprints?
Invading the system and tampering with the data is useful. What can you do with the hard drive? Isa guessed that Thresh was deliberately provoking Blade. After provoking MI5 and the anti-powder team, now it's Blade's turn. Liang Xi might be right, this group of people did not commit crimes just for money.
Thresh thought for a while and said, "100 is fine, but there is a condition."
Isa asked, "What are the conditions?" She would be happy if she could get 100 back. After all, Fiona spent a lot of time on it, and the hard drive itself is worth a little money. As for value, the only valuable thing is the undercover operation. If you carefully study all the police data, you may be able to infer the undercover identity of some of the police's previous operations.
Not to mention that these undercover agents were there a long time ago and it took several hours to copy the data, how many people do you need to read all the data?
