Chapter 6325: The Invasion Begins

"What do you mean?" Lin Rui asked.

"What I mean is obviously that Cobain has to go with us. He has to be involved, including the aerial cable drop, including the entire infiltration and evacuation process.

Because only in this way can he successfully enter the bank's security system. And if we want the operation to be successful, the bank's security system is a link that must be broken, and we can't do without him. ’ Daniel replied.

"But..." Cobain held his glasses with his hand, and said with some embarrassment, "You mean I have to participate in the whole action?"

"But he is an internal staff member who provides technical support. Normally, he absolutely does not participate in team operations." Lin Rui shook his head.

"I understand what you mean. If I had such an expert, I would never let him take any risks. In a sense, Mr. Cobain alone is worth even the entire team.

And he is not a field officer, which means his skill...I don't mean to discriminate against him, let everyone understand that the reason why you can become an operator is to pay the price of blood and sweat.

But Mr. Cobain is a different type of talent. So I'm not sure it was a wise decision to involve him in the action. "Daniel spread his hands.

"Is there no other way? Or we can try to mount it to allow him to remotely control it. Or ask him to write a cracking program and let our team members operate it?" Lin Rui tried to ask.

"It would be easier if it were really that simple. The key is that the methods you mentioned may be okay to deal with general security systems.

But if you want to deal with the security system of the Federal Reserve Bank, I am afraid it will not work. You computer experts, I'm afraid you have to follow us. ’ Daniel replied.

"I have no problem. Although I'm not on the field, it's not like I haven't participated in similar operations before." Cobain smiled, but the smile was still a bit forced.

"Don't worry, there is no problem. We will protect you when you act." Sergey patted him on the shoulder. And his next sentence directly made Cobain's face turn pale, "You have been in prison anyway, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Don't listen to his nonsense, even if something happens to everyone, we won't let you go." Lin Rui promised.

For Cobain, Lin Rui has always given him special care. It is easy to find a mercenary who is not afraid of death, but it is not easy to find a network security expert like Cobain.

More importantly, Cobain and his team are equivalent to independently supporting the network security and technical support departments of their Trident company.

Mr. K of the CIA tried to recruit Cobain several times, but Lin Rui refused. Because he knows the importance of Cobain better than anyone.

On the 10th, night fell over Manhattan. Many attractions here are world-renowned. Among them is Times Square, known as "the crossroads of the world" and "the center of the world", which is the center point of dazzling Broadway theaters, one of the world's busiest pedestrian crossings and the center point of the world's entertainment industry.

It is also the economic and cultural center of the entire United States, the location of the central business district of New York City, the area with the highest concentration of skyscrapers in the world, the headquarters of most of the world's top 500 companies, and the headquarters of the United Nations.

Wall Street in Manhattan is the most important financial center in the world, with the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq.

In the night sky, there was an airship floating in the sky, and the banners and slogans on it could still be seen clearly. It seemed to be an election advertisement.

The time for the US presidential election has not yet arrived, but the election campaign is already in full swing. A metropolis like New York is no stranger to such things.

Downstairs of the New York branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States, two security personnel are patrolling.

One of them looked at the sky and muttered in a low voice, "Damn, it looks like the weather will not be very good tomorrow."

"The weather forecast also says that the weather will be bad tomorrow, and we won't be able to see any stars." Another black security guard replied, "Only the **** airship."

The two chatted while patrolling. Although they glanced at the airship in the sky, they obviously didn't care about it.

Little did they know that in the pod of the airship, there was a group of people sitting now, and just an hour later, this group of people would sneak into the Federal Reserve Bank they were guarding.

The pods of the airship are concealed behind giant advertising banners. Lin Rui and all the team members have been well equipped, all in black combat uniforms and black masks.

"According to the current wind speed and direction, there is still an hour at most. We will arrive at the target area." Sergey held up the telescope and observed.

"It's about the same time as planned. After an hour, we will enter the ideal position. Then we will gradually lower the altitude and anchor directly above the target with anchor cables.

Once this step is done, we have to start the rappelling. The others played first, and I protected Cobain and played next. Lin Rui nodded.

Floating in the air for an hour seemed to them to have waited longer. If you wait for the sake of waiting, the time always seems particularly long.

Finally they entered the designated position, Sergei controlled the airship and began to descend.

Inside the airship there are two sections that store gas. One is to store buoyant gas and the other is to store air. The adjustment of ascending and descending is realized by controlling how much the gas of the air bag storing air is adjusted.

Through such operations, the airship can be suspended at different heights, and it has a huge advantage over helicopter suspension in that airship suspension can be achieved without consuming energy, while helicopters cannot.

After continuing to lower the altitude, the black mamba shot the anchor cable on the roof below. This keeps the airship. Hovering directly above the rooftop of the top floor.

"The altitude is in place, and the airship can continue to hover here, but we have to speed up. The time to complete the cable drop is only 8 minutes.

Although the airship is anchored, the wind is a bit strong today. Considering the current wind speed, we still have to be careful when rappelling. "Lin Rui made a gesture.

The black mamba had already hung the buckle around his waist on the safety buckle of the gondola, then grabbed the rope and jumped and slid down quickly. It's just that in the process of sliding down, I control the rope to slow down from time to time. Avoid falling too fast.

Others also started rappelling one by one, they were all very experienced and the timing was quite good.

Don't look at the fact that it's very simple to stagger the time, but you can see the skills of these people. Because if two people descend at the same time, due to the wind speed and the gravity of their own fall, it is easy to cause two people to collide in the air, or the ropes are blown by the high-altitude wind, entangled together, and an accident occurs.

To accurately grasp the time inside and stagger each other, it is necessary to use the fastest time to complete the rope drop, which is actually a science.

Lin Rui and Cobain were the last ones to completely surrender. Although Cobain panicked, he still completed the descent. When he landed on the roof, he gasped heavily.

Lin Rui raised his wrist and looked at his watch. Turn around to signal to the team members, and then act.

The door leading from the rooftop to the lower part of the building was locked. But that didn't bother Sergey, who took out his lockpicking tool and opened the door within minutes.

But they were not in a hurry to push the door in, because according to intelligence. There is a camera monitoring inside the door, facing the door leading to the rooftop.

"Jaminator." Sergey whispered to the Black Mamba.

The jammer they use is an electromagnetic pulse device. A strong electromagnetic field is used to interfere with electronic circuits. Equivalent to a small EMP.

Although its power cannot be compared with a serious electromagnetic pulse bomb. But the same principle is used. Although electronic equipment cannot be damaged instantly, it is still possible to interfere with the video signal received by the monitor.

Of course, this kind of interference can only last a few seconds at most, but these few seconds are enough for them to open the door and rush to the safe area.

The black mamba understood, took out a small jammer, and pressed the switch. The green indicator light flashed twice quickly and then turned red.

"Go!" Lin Rui whispered.

Sergey pushed open the door and rushed in quickly. Others followed him quickly.

When everyone leaves the monitoring range of the camera. The green indicator light of the jammer just turned on, and everyone's beating hearts became a little quieter.

There was no abnormality in the monitoring, and the alarm did not sound. This shows that they have just fooled the camera surveillance.

In the face of electromagnetic pulse interference, the monitoring images in the security monitoring room did freeze and flicker for a few seconds.

But it should not have aroused the vigilance of the security personnel. The monitor screen flickered a bit and seemed to have some electromagnetic interference, then returned to normal.

It is a very common situation for the security personnel on duty to monitor abnormal conditions for a few seconds, and it is not a big deal.

After going down from the top of the building, after walking less than 20 meters, Sergei stopped again.

Because according to the 3D modeling that Daniel made before, he is familiar with the internal passages and every room of the entire bank.

At the corner further ahead, there should be another camera monitoring. And this time they can no longer use the jammer.

The use of jammers is inherently dangerous and can only be used in extreme helpless situations.

Because if the surveillance video is constantly flashing, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of the security personnel.

Moreover, this surveillance camera is facing a maintenance window on the wall. According to the building circuit diagram, this circuit maintenance window is connected to the monitoring equipment on the entire fifth floor.

What they have to do now is to open this control cabinet. Try to take over the surveillance equipment on the entire floor. Set these surveillance cameras to play their recordings on a regular loop.

And to do all of this, a few seconds is far from enough, they are trying to find another way.

Lin Rui pointed to the corner of the wall. In a very narrow distance directly below the surveillance camera, it was a blind spot for the entire surveillance camera.

And to reach this blind spot, they have to move very slowly from one side against the wall.

Moreover, the camera is located at a high place, which cannot be touched by Sergey's height. Therefore, Lin Rui had to act together with Sergey, and the two of them pressed against the wall, trying to make their bodies fit the wall as tightly as possible.

Because they carefully calculated the distance. The monitoring blind spot between the surveillance camera and the wall is only 20 cm.

So the two have to stick to the wall and move slowly.

After moving to the bottom of the surveillance camera, Sergey and Lin Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

The two adjusted their positions slightly, Ming Rui squatted down slowly, let Sergey step on his shoulders, and came directly under the surveillance camera.

Sergey took out the prepared photos and placed them in front of the surveillance cameras. He must be very careful in this process, because in the surveillance of the security room, there may be security guards staring at the screen closely.

So he must be in place at one time, to avoid not being in place at one time, and then move up, down, left, and right. This is tantamount to being exposed.

Fortunately, they completed it smoothly, after doing all this. The surveillance of the security office will directly display the contents of the photo, an empty corridor.

Daniel nodded to them, "Good job." After speaking, he quickly came to the maintenance entrance, skillfully took out the unlocking tool, and opened the maintenance cabinet.

Then a special small hard disk box was connected to it. Here is the surveillance screen they copied.

It seems that the entire floor is full of empty corridors, and there is no one there.

After completing this step according to the plan, they can start the next step.

After the replacement video started, Daniel turned around and made a gesture to everyone. "Go back to the end of the corridor, from there you can go up and into the ceiling."

Everyone followed his instructions, turned around and retreated to the stairs, and then several people cooperated to open the ceiling at the top and slowly climbed up.

The bank was built in the 1920s, and above the ceiling, there is still plenty of room to walk stooped over.

But when they walk, they must be very careful, because the beams that hold the ceiling can't bear much weight.

They must try to walk on the ground supported by steel beams. Supported steel beams distribute their weight so they don't weigh down the ceiling.

"Turn right from the front position, walk about 23 meters, then turn left, go straight for a distance, and you should be able to see the location of the elevator shaft." Lin Rui whispered.

"I remember clearly." Daniel nodded. "It's basically the same as what you said. But we'd better check and confirm before deciding whether to go down there."

"What's wrong?" Lin Rui frowned, "Any more questions?"

"It's nothing. I just think that our operation is a little too smooth. It is impossible for those security guards to ignore the issue of the elevator shaft.

So I suspect, on the elevator shaft side, we have to be careful. If there is any trap, you all leave it to me to deal with it. "Daniel said with a serious expression.
