The mysterious and powerful "terrorist organization" △○△, which was wreaking havoc around the world, suddenly disappeared.
Just as they appear without warning.
Perhaps for some civil organizations, the disappearance of △○△ is a good thing, but the security agencies of various countries have a premonition that a storm is brewing.
The sudden appearance and sudden disappearance of △○△ is extremely abnormal.
Regardless of the misdeeds of this organization around the world, just looking at the super-era technology it possesses has already made many people feel panic and uneasy.
Among them, the major chaebols who have been most severely persecuted feel this the most.
They are not just a group of businessmen who only make money, they also have far-sighted think tanks under them.
During the year of confrontation with △○△, although no organization dared to say that it had taken advantage, some groups that were severely persecuted by △○△ were considered good doctors. At least they knew the strength of △○△
How terrible is it.
All existing network security algorithms are useless in front of this organization. They come and go without a trace, and even if you use a separate private network to ensure the purity of your system, it will soon be "polluted" again.
.
And it is this incredible "pollution" that has sounded the alarm to everyone.
That is, △○△ is far from being comparable to hacker organizations active in the online world. Their strength on the Internet has been realized in reality and radiates around the world.
The "warehouse" incident at the end of 2012 is the best proof.
In order to ensure that the details of the operation were not known to the public, the multi-national joint arrest operation deliberately adopted a "mechanized" information transmission mode.
Information transmission between each layer is handled by dedicated personnel.
But even so, in the end the warehouse was empty, and not a single byte of the most critical technology was obtained.
By the end of 2012, when all countries were preparing for possible large-scale attacks, △○△ chose to disappear at such a "precious" node.
Also missing were Li Shaoan and Guan Dehou, two major Chinese investigators.
Twelve hours after Li Shaoan and Guan Dehou disappeared, higher authorities began a search operation.
However, until January 1, 2013, after the first round of city-wide searches, Li Shaoan and Guan Dehou were still missing as if they had disappeared from the world.
Wang Chong, the only person who had contact with Guan Dehou and Li Shaoan before the incident, became an important "suspect".
However, what is more intriguing is that although the superiors listed Wang Chong as an "important suspect", they did not take any further measures against Wang Chong. Instead, they only placed him under house arrest in Longtan Prison and monitored him 24 hours a day.
Wang Chong also obeyed the arrangements very consciously, as if he had been "in jail" and was undergoing "reformation".
The time has come to February 1, 2013.
A special guest, Wang Yi, came to Longtan Prison.
It is unusual for an already well-known photographer to suddenly visit Longtan Prison, not to mention that Wang Yi is Sun Yufei's son.
Therefore, the superiors attached great importance to Wang Yi's visit.
However, the purpose of Wang Yi's visit to Longtan Prison this time was to take a portrait album of the inmates in the prison, and this was something he was allowed to do after repeated applications.
Wang Yi hopes to launch a warning education exhibition through a collection of portraits he took. This is for public welfare and educational purposes, and it is also a photography project supported by the government and relevant departments.
It's just that Wang Yi's status is rather special, which makes such a public welfare shooting unusual.
…
After going through multiple security checks, Wang Yi met his first "model" Chao Qing in Interview Room No. 1, accompanied by several prison guards.
Chao Qing was also one of the suspicious persons that the special investigation team paid the most attention to.
Especially in the days after Chao Qing's sister died in an accident on the Golden Gate Bridge, Chao Qing would behave abnormally basically every night.
For example, one time Chao Qing woke up at around 1 a.m., and then squatted next to another inmate in the cell and kept looking at him.
The whole process lasts half an hour.
Fortunately, the inmate in the same cell as him didn't realize that someone was staring at him in the dark, otherwise he would have been frightened to death.
And this move was not Chao Qing's most abnormal move.
He had previously talked to himself against the wall before sunrise, quarreled with himself, and even pinched his own neck.
Fortunately, most of the people were already awake at that time. Otherwise, judging from the intensity of Chao Qing's self-mutilation at that time, he might have accomplished the incredible feat of "strangling himself to death."
After this incident, Chao Qing was put in a solitary confinement room and isolated from other people for a week. It was not until the doctor thought that Chao Qing was normal that he was allowed to return to his previous cell.
Now Chao Qing, who is sitting opposite Wang Yi, is feeling much better.
At least it looks like...Chao Qing is back to normal.
…
"I need you to face the camera and think about some happy things, okay?" Wang Yi said.
After Chao Qing looked at the camera and was silent for a while, he followed the request and showed a bright smile.
Although it was only a brief moment, Wang Yi completely preserved it on the film.
Taking the first set of photos went much smoother than Wang Yi imagined.
But Wang Yi was very curious as to why Chao Qing could still show such a pure smile.
But out of curiosity, Wang Yi didn't ask because it would be too impolite.
"Next, I want to hear your story... As you tell your story, I will take a set of photos for you, but I won't deliberately ask you to look at the camera. You just need to state it as naturally as possible.
That’s it.”
Chao Qing didn't seem to understand. He asked, "No one told me to tell stories before. Is this an additional item?"
Wang Yi hesitated for a moment, then shrugged and said, "No, you can choose to remain silent, but you can also choose to cherish this opportunity."
Chao Qing smiled coldly: "Opportunity? If you cherish it, do you think I will still appear here?"
While Wang Yi was talking, he paid attention to every change in Chao Qing's facial expressions. He was capturing valuable images every moment and photographing them.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to argue with you. If you are really disgusted, you can go back now, thank you." Wang Yi said and planned to turn around and signal to the next person.
But then Chao Qing said: "About...ten years ago?"
Wang Yi turned around and looked at Chao Qing.
"Well, you tell me and I listen."
"Ten years ago... ha..." Chao Qing looked up at the camera and said: "Ten years ago, how old was I... that is, a high school student... Well... at that time, my idea of my future was to be confused.
After a few years, I will go to the city to work, find a woman to get married, have children, start a family and start a business..."
It was a boring story, but Wang Yi listened to it with great interest. In other words, every subtle expression he saw under the camera was unusually vivid.
Chao Qing looked up at the inverted iron fence between himself and Wang Yi and continued: "At that time, I never thought that I would go to prison, but things are unpredictable, so I came in anyway... Thinking about it now... it's really in vain.
I’ve read so many books…”
No one talked to him, this was Chao Qing's own monologue.
"After I graduated from high school and went to school, I followed the people in the town who had been out there in the previous years. Hey, when I first entered the city, I really didn't feel that I was local. Anyway, everything I saw was new and I looked up to me wherever I went.
I shook my head and was dazzled!" Chao Qing smiled when he said this: "On the third day after entering the city, my brother took me to a bar to drink. Tsk... that was my first time drinking... and my first time.
The place where I drank too much and met a woman for the first time..."
Taking a deep breath, it was like returning to that place filled with light.
Chao Qing closed his eyes and said: "I only heard people say that drinking too much is more powerful, haha! It's all nonsense! This is the first time I muttered in bed for half the night, which made the girl angry... Hahaha!
"
When talking about this, several prison guards looked impatient.
Wang Yi, however, smiled and motioned for them to wait for Chao Qing to continue speaking.
"The next day, um... it should be the second day!" The smile on Chao Qing's face gradually faded. He placed his shackled hands on the table, slowly clenched his fists and said, "They stuffed me with a
A box of cigarettes, and then asked me to find a man named Brother Cai."
After the keyword "Brother Cai" appeared, the technical department personnel who monitored everything in the interview room immediately identified a key person.
However, this key figure was a deceased person who was relatively popular in Guangdong ten years ago.
Nicknamed "Maocai", also known as "Maocai", he was once a small leader in the downline of Vietnam's Lao Crow who developed in the mainland.
"I didn't know what Brother Cai was or not Brother Cai at that time. Anyway, I would go if I was asked." Chao Qing continued: "But on the way, I think I should be respected by others, at least...right...at least I should go
Start smoking."
Chao Qing smiled as he spoke, but his smile was a little sad.
"Take one bite! Hiss... My whole body is shaking, you know..." Chao Qing gestured at the feeling. The immaterial performance and demeanor made him look like an addict intoxicated on drugs.
"That was the first time I touched something dirty! From then on..." Wang Yi put down the "cigarette", his eyes regained their clarity, he clasped his fingers tightly, and his knuckles turned white with force: "I will
I met Brother Cai and got a lot of money. Of course... this is also my good luck. Those who were unlucky would have been caught or hacked to death... To be able to survive today, firstly, rely on ruthlessness, and secondly,
It depends on luck! My luck has never been bad! Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get my sister back."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Wang Yi's face disappeared. He raised his head and looked at Chao Qing.
"You won't understand. To you, the stories I just told were all filmed by Young and Dangerous in movies for you! Fighting, killing, taking drugs and selling drugs, these scenes sound pretty cool, don't they?
"?" Chao Qing's eyes were cold.
Wang Yi did not answer the call.
"Okay... If you want to hear the rest of the story, you can find the people who are watching us now. I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first." Chao Qing raised his finger and pointed at the monitor above his head and said,
Then he got up and prepared to leave.
But Wang Yi stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, I still want to hear you finish the story."
