Chapter 329 Hackers
Chapter 329 Hackers
"Which night?" Old Chen asked, feigning confusion.
Bai Mengfei never liked beating around the bush, so she asked directly, "You told me before that Captain Zhao asked me to investigate a case, do you remember that?"
"Oh, you mean that night? I was indeed confused that night, I remembered it wrong. As people get older, they tend to get things mixed up." After saying that, Old Chen prepared to leave.
Bai Mengfei called him back again and said solemnly, "Old Chen, you're about to retire. There are some things I hope you can think through carefully, and please don't do anything that will put you in an irrecoverable situation."
Old Chen stopped and pondered for a moment, then chuckled twice and said, "Hmm, I know what I'm doing."
After saying that, he quickened his pace, as if afraid that Bai Mengfei would call him back again, and hurriedly left.
Bai Mengfei stared at his departing figure, feeling as if he had become a different person.
However, since she wasn't an anti-corruption officer, she naturally wouldn't concern herself with such matters. But as a colleague, she worried that Mr. Chen might make the wrong choice at this crucial moment, and that one wrong step could lead to total defeat.
After standing alone for a while, Bai Mengfei turned around and returned to her office with a heavy heart.
As soon as she entered the office, she saw Xiang Yuntian working.
Xiang Yuntian was sitting in front of the computer, his fingers rapidly typing on the keyboard. From Bai Mengfei's perspective, it was impossible to tell what he was doing.
Seeing Xiang Yuntian's flustered expression, Bai Mengfei slowly walked over and asked as she went, "What are you doing?"
Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's voice, Xiang Yuntian looked up, sighed heavily, and said, "The data on the computer is being deleted for some reason. You should take a look."
"Is that so?" Bai Mengfei quickly walked to his side and bent down to check the situation.
At that moment, her hair inadvertently fell beside Xiang Yuntian's cheek.
It's unclear how Xiang Yuntian felt, but his face immediately turned red.
Bai Mengfei was focused on the documents, but Xiang Yuntian's gaze fell on Bai Mengfei's face.
"What exactly happened?" Bai Mengfei asked anxiously while trying her best to salvage the data, but the data was still being deleted and could not be recovered.
Just as Bai Mengfei was extremely anxious, Xiang Yuntian thought that things couldn't go on like this, so he said to Bai Mengfei, "Why don't we ask Commander Jiang to come and take a look?"
Bai Mengfei thought Xiang Yuntian's suggestion was good, so she nodded slightly and agreed, "Okay, then quickly call him over."
"Okay, I'll call him right away." After saying that, Xiang Yuntian took out his phone and dialed Jiang Shuai's number.
At this moment, Jiang Shuai was having a great time with his newly acquainted friends at a KTV, having so much fun that he had almost forgotten everything else.
But a phone call from Xiang Yuntian instantly brought him back to reality.
He glanced at his phone, blinked, and frowned slightly.
As soon as he saw that it was Xiang Yuntian calling, he knew that Xiang Yuntian must have something important to tell him!
So he quickly went outside, dialed Xiang Yuntian's number back, and asked, "Hey, Yuntian, what do you need me for?"
"Well, for some reason, our department's data is being deleted in batches. Are you free right now? If so, could you come over and take a look?"
When his brother is in trouble, Jiang Shuai will naturally not refuse. Besides, handling such matters is exactly his forte.
"No problem, I'll be right there." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Shuai returned to his private room without hesitation and told his friends that he had to leave first because of an urgent matter.
After saying that, he immediately went to the parking lot, got on his motorcycle, and sped off to the police station.
Upon arriving at the police station, Jiang Shuai, guided by Xiang Yuntian and Bai Mengfei, went to the computer.
He glanced at it and frowned, saying, "This has been hacked, and by a top-tier hacker at that. They've breached your security system. Get your technical experts here immediately to see if they can take control of the sockets and find the hacker behind it."
Bai Mengfei hurriedly asked Wang Tian to contact the technical department.
However, Wang Tian walked very slowly.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!" Bai Mengfei urged anxiously.
She was worried that the entire police station's data would be deleted by hackers.
Wang Tian then came to her senses, responded with two "oh oh" sounds, and quickened her pace to go to the technical department to ask for experts.
They then discovered that not only Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian's computers, but also the police station's files were being deleted.
"If all this data is deleted, can it be recovered?" Bai Mengfei asked worriedly.
Jiang Shuai shook his head as he tried to stop the data from being deleted, saying, "The chances of recovery are slim. Even if some data can be recovered later, some will definitely be corrupted, resulting in garbled text or inability to open. Right now, we can only try our best to stop the hackers from deleting any more data. Oh, and there's one more thing."
"What is it?" Xiang Yuntian hurriedly came over and asked.
Jiang Shuai said, "There might be a mole within your police station. Because the police security system is very advanced and difficult for ordinary people to infiltrate, it is very likely that this was an inside job, and someone removed the firewall first."
"Then can we find out which computer removed the firewall?" Bai Mengfei pressed.
Jiang Shuai sighed deeply and said, "This is very difficult to investigate. The other party is an extremely intelligent expert, whose skills are even better than mine."
At this moment, the technical department staff arrived and immediately began to angrily question who Jiang Shuai was.
After Bai Mengfei explained the situation to them, they stopped blaming Jiang Shuai and instead told him to move aside and stop causing trouble.
However, even the technical staff were at a loss.
This incident alarmed Zhao Fei and the police chief, because the data on the chief's computer had also been deleted. Not only that, even their encrypted backups stored in the cloud had been deleted and wiped clean.
The director was furious and questioned the technical department staff about what had happened.
The technical department's answer was roughly the same as Jiang Shuai's. The head of the technical department said to the director, "It must be that someone within our organization turned off the usual security system, which allowed the hacker to enter so easily without alerting our security personnel."
"What should we do now?" the bureau chief asked anxiously.
The head of the technical department bit his lip, thought for a while, and then replied, "I don't know what to do right now. Sigh, we can only pray for a miracle."
"I really don't understand why the higher-ups would hire people like you!" the bureau chief said angrily.
