"This thing has a name called 'Achilles' Heel'." He Weiming stared at the hard drive in his hand and looked at Qin Fei in surprise: "I'm just curious, where did you get it from?"
"What!?" Yuri almost screamed, "Is this the 'Achilles' Heel'!?"
Qin Fei knew that He Weiming was deliberately concealing his identity, so he explained: "It was taken from the hands of an underground organization. It is said that it contains their encrypted data, including their criminal evidence and fund flow records."
"Is there such a thing in an underground organization?" He Weiming deliberately pretended to be confused, "Then, this organization is really not simple, you know? This is Yingjiang's top secret, the highest technology, and the person who designed this thing...
"
Having said this, he didn't say any more, but glanced at Yuri.
Yuri seemed to be stunned, and his soul was no longer in his body.
"Do you know who it is?"
Yuri's face paled, then nodded: "I know..."
Suddenly he stopped talking. He seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately looked up at He Weiming, his eyes becoming sharp.
"How do you know so detailedly!? There is only one in this world..."
Having said this, Yuri suddenly trembled, the pupils in his eyes began to shrink, and he stared at He Weiming in front of him.
"You are the Red Ghost!"
"You are the White Ghost!"
The eyes of the two suddenly softened, as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for many years.
Qin Fei and Polar Bear suddenly fell into the clouds and mist. They had no idea why the two people who just didn't like each other suddenly became so tender and sympathetic.
"you two……"
Qin Fei's eyes moved back and forth on their faces.
"know?"
Yuri suddenly opened his arms, and He Weiming also opened his arms at the same time. The two hugged each other like long-lost brothers!
"Hahaha! We finally meet!"
"Yeah, I said who dares to study and decrypt this disk? I'm worried that if I meet a technical idiot and activate the trap, everyone will have to finish it."
"We are really destined!" Yuri finally let go of He Weiming, "I didn't expect that your true identity is a graduate student, no wonder!"
He Weiming's smile suddenly became unnatural. In fact, his identity was still fake.
But of course I couldn't tell Yuri about this kind of thing.
So he changed the subject and said, "Have you gained anything these days?"
"No, it's very troublesome. Every time I get stuck at the end of the solution." Yuri pointed at the computers and said, "I've been stuck at the last step for three days. David Morris is really the best.
!”
"It's not his work alone!" He Weiming gently placed the hard drive on the table. "It was the masterpiece of the Cyber Warfare Command, which gathered all the elites of the Eagle Country. He was only responsible for the last program."
"Then..." Yuri said, "I want to hear your opinion."
"Wait!" Qin Fei interrupted the two of them and said, "You two know each other?"
He repeated the question again.
"Well, we know each other, Qin Fei." He Weiming said without hesitation, "And we have known each other for a long time, but we have never met in person. We meet more in dark web chat rooms."
"What program and David Morris did you just talk about?" Qin Fei asked, "How do you know the other party's identity just by relying on this hard drive?"
"That's it." He Weiming pointed to the sofa next to him: "Let's sit down and talk slowly."
The guys then sat down on the sofa.
He Weiming said: "In this way, I will give you some popular science on what Achilles' heel is."
"Tell me, let's just listen to a story." Qin Fei took out a few cans of drinks from the refrigerator and put them on the coffee table.
He Weiming opened a can and took a sip.
"The legendary Achilles is a demigod in ancient Greek mythology. He is the son of the ocean goddess Thetis and the hero Peleus. After his birth, his mother learned from the goddess of fate that he would die in battle, so he used the sky to
The mortal part of the body was restored by fire and restored with divine ointment. It was interrupted when he was discovered by Peleus when it was about to be completed, so the heel was left unburned and other parts of the body were invulnerable and invulnerable to the gods. In the Trojan War, Achilles
It took only two wars for Stirling to tilt the originally stalemate war situation in favor of Greece, and killed Hector, the first warrior of Troy. However, due to the enemy of the sun god Apollo, he was shot in the heel by a hidden arrow shot by Apollo and died.
"
"As for this hard drive, when it was first designed, the military wanted to create a hard drive that could not be successfully decrypted, so it gathered a large number of top hackers and engineers to design the program. No matter how you decrypted it, it was difficult to decrypt it and physically dismantle it.
It will burn the hard drive, so there is basically no solution."
"Basically no solution?" Qin Fei was stunned.
"That's not to say. The key is that there is one person in this world who can solve it." He Weiming said this and turned to look at Yuri.
And Yuri said almost at the same time as He Weiming: "David Morris."
"Who is David Morris?"
"Morris is nicknamed Professor. He admires Chinese culture very much, so he gave himself the nickname 'Han and Tang Fengyue', but most people on the dark web call him 'Professor'." He Weiming continued: "Maurice is this
The author of the last step of the hard disk security program, that is to say, there are probably many people who carried a line of code before, and these codes are the walls, and then he integrated them and finally made a door."
Qin Fei seemed to understand something.
"You mean he has the key to the door?"
"Every hacker is a technical geek, and it is almost a professional habit. When they write their own programs, they will leave something in the program, maybe a line of useless code, maybe a few invisible passwords and backdoors.
kind."
He Weiming said: "The professor happens to be this kind of person who wants to die. Originally, the program in the hard drive was written for the intelligence agency and the military, but he was too clever and placed a backdoor in it. So this hard drive is not without weaknesses, and
There is only one weakness, so it’s called Achilles’ Heel, and only Morris, who did the last step, knows where the secret door is.”
"If that's the case, why are people still using it? Why are they using it even if they know it's unsafe?" Qin Fei said puzzledly: "The military and intelligence agencies are not fools."
"It's very simple, because although this program had a backdoor installed by the professor, people in the military and intelligence agencies were extremely satisfied with its involvement. And the most important thing is that the professor died in a car accident while driving.
When the ferry was crossing the sea, his car was pushed into the sea by the gate that was raised early, and he died in full view of everyone."
"Dead!?" Qin Fei's heart sank. If the truth is what He Weiming and Yuri said, wouldn't it mean that the hard drive is unsolvable?
