Cyber Heroes

Xiang Shan walked into the office building of the Sap City branch of Superman Enterprise.

Xiangshan applied for a temporary pass at the counter and entered the Superman Enterprise building in the name of a "visitor".

Well, Superman Enterprise is open to the outside world. Anyone - even a primary school student - can apply to visit on a dedicated web page. After the application is approved, anyone can visit with the employees of Superman Enterprise. The public relations department of Superman Enterprises has a dedicated position to do this. Many people came to visit the company on the premise of "not affecting the work of Superman Enterprises".

This is a propaganda tool. Superman companies need to prove that they are ethical more than any company in the past - especially when many companies in related industries have "criminal records."

Superman Enterprise, a company whose business scope is "gene therapy" and "prosthetic technology", needs to prove itself more than anyone else.

Xiangshan wanted to be watched all the time, proving that there were no science fiction monsters such as "deformed mutants" or "zombie" in the laboratory - because this was really what was said outside.

At the same time, Xiang Shan really hopes to show his hard work to the world. At that time, Xiangshan sincerely believed that the "Superman Enterprise" system was the most dynamic system he could find under the premise that "private ownership will exist for a long time." He has this confidence.

Years of success have made Xiangshan a man with overwhelming self-confidence.

More than ten years later, this opening also provided great convenience for Xiang Shan's assassination activities.

"Vulkan", a well-known hacker ID.

In the late 1920s, the hacker circle developed a subcultural phenomenon of "competing for Vulcan ID" due to the tacit understanding between two people playing around. Gods of fire from various myths have been registered as IDs by hackers. Those who dare to reveal their Vulcan-related IDs in the hacker circle are all experts in the industry.

Zhu Xinyu has held the ID "Zhu Rong" for a long time.

When Xiangshan was the director of the Rama Project Park of the United Nations Office for Project Services, he had heard about this group of lawless people. At least in the 1930s, the holder of the ID "Vulkan" was still an Indian. The Indian was later captured by India's security services and extradited to a European country for trial. Then, he was bailed out with a large sum of money by a company in the field of network security and became a kind of modern "indentured slave" - ​​if the employer is not satisfied, he can be thrown back into prison at any time.

After that, Xiangshan didn't pay much attention to this matter. After all, Zhu Xinyu has withdrawn from the world for many years.

Until recently.

By invading the system of Superman Enterprise, Xiangshan studied "how I was deceived." The prototype of the management system used by Superman Enterprises was written by himself in the 1930s, and then handed over to Zhu Xinyu for upgrades and maintenance, and it is still in use today. Although Xiang Shan, Zhu Xinyu and his wife were not always keeping an eye on him, the other employees involved in this work could not all be members of the "stealers".

The original "thieves" must have been a small group. After all, once the number of people increases, it is no longer possible to operate covertly.

Xiangshan concluded that the country thieves must also have masters of technology. And this master must not be under his control - in other words, he does not appear within the Superman Enterprise's system at all.

He may have some apparent identity with the help of some kleptocrat. He may be a university teacher, he may live at home, or he may even work in the security department as a cleaner or something. The only thing that is certain is that his apparent identity must have nothing to do with hackers.

A master, and a group of capable subordinates, a small team. If coupled with enough resources and a few opportunities deliberately created by senior executives, it would indeed be possible to deceive him and Zhu Xinyu unknowingly.

In addition, there should also be a professional team to train specialized AI to target Xiangshan and his party and blunt their perception with massive amounts of false news.

These two groups are the keys to victory for the country thief to cut off Xiangshan's hand and cover Xiangshan's eyes. They are also the ace card to kill Xiangshan alone.

Corresponding to them is the card that kidnaps all mankind - genetic backdoors.

The person who made this must be someone from the R\u0026D department of Superman Enterprise. Yawgmoth has studied the underlying principles so thoroughly and simplified the technology so much that this technology, which can silently change all mankind, is no longer a matter of "can it" but "whether you want to". With the scientific research background of Superman Enterprise, one person can handle this matter with a small team.

Some don’t even require research. In order to explore some of the reactions at the bottom of life, Yawgmoth has specialized in the technical means of "using electrical signals to trigger special reactions in cells." But at that time, Yawgmoth only wanted to work on yeast and mice, and never thought that similar technology would be applied to humans.

——That guy Yawgmoth is probably going to commit suicide in anger...

Xiangshan thought for no reason.

Xiangshan didn't know if the Yawgmoth who attended the company event in the TV news a few days ago was himself.

Yawgmoth may have been replaced much earlier. Xiangshan couldn't be sure that that time was the last time he saw the "real Yawgmoth".

If that man is not Yawgmoth, perhaps the real Yawgmoth is dead. It was under extremely lucky circumstances that Xiang Shan met David who had not yet been replaced in a desperate situation. Xiangshan didn't think Yawgmoth could escape from the opponent's methods. Something else has happened since then. Now, David, Xiang Shan, and a few other members who were told the truth and had to work with them are all the "Avengers".

Xiang Shan's first task is to hunt down the most trusted "eyes and ears" of the thieves - just like they did with Xiang Shan.

The kleptocrats are a small group. They also want to steal the Superman Enterprise because they are greedy and cannot give up the power that the Superman Enterprise has brought to them. Their real goals will not be supported by the majority of the population. Precisely because it is "theft", they cannot be exposed.

People outside the team will not recognize them, and it is difficult for them to trust people outside the team. Therefore, as long as the technical personnel within the team are eliminated, no matter how many and high-level the technical personnel of Superman Enterprise are, they will not be able to know the truth like this "one of our own".

Barriers reduce productivity.

The primary target of hunting is the hacker team.

Deceiving him and Zhu Xinyu, cracking the security system of Superman Enterprise's products, and concealing the existence of other members within the enterprise...

These most important things all fall to the hacker team.

After nearly a year of investigation, Xiangshan gradually determined the target.

The hacker "Vulkan" must be a member of this team. After "bombing the power supply system" and "bombing the signal base station" and other similar acts of terrorist attacks, Xiangshan also confirmed the location of "Vulcan".

It's in this building.

According to outside records, "Vulkan" changed hands twice after being "recruited" by a network security company. The second "acquisition" of his business was later acquired. The acquirer is a member of the board of directors of Superman Enterprises - Director Qian Zhengdaoqian, who is suspected by Lao Di to be a member of the kleptocrats.

Director Qian did intervene in the affairs of the Sap City branch. No, it cannot be called "meddling", but working normally. Although Xiangshan takes products, technology, and safety very seriously, he also leaves some aspects of administrative management to other partners. On the one hand, this also reassures the partners that they still have power. On the other hand, board members from all over the world are indeed one of the strengths of Superman Enterprises. Idle resources are a waste, right?

Director Qian retained "his own people" here. He even ended up raising his own private soldiers here.

"Well, maybe Mr. Vulgan moved here recently. He might not have been here before. Otherwise, there would have been rumors... Well, is it because Xinyu became more and more unscrupulous after his disappearance?"

Xiangshan took the sightseeing elevator on the 50th floor and entered the higher-level area.

Xiangshan really likes super buildings. There is no boy who doesn’t like big stuff. After traveling to Chunshen when he was a child, Xiang Shan always felt that Peiping could not survive without super-tall buildings. Nowadays, many branches of superhuman companies are composed of super high-rise buildings.

Half of the top ten tallest buildings in the world are owned by Superman Enterprises.

And Xiang Shan also stuffed everything a child might want into a tall building. Xiangshan even wanted to use a "roller coaster" instead of an elevator to achieve rapid descent from high-rise buildings - at the United States branch, he actually paid the designer extra money for this.

This kind of super building includes employee dormitories, sky gardens, other entertainment facilities and public rest areas, as well as hospitals, supermarkets, and schools for employees' children. Xiangshan once proudly claimed that if a person wanted to, he could live a good life even if he never left the building. This can also be regarded as Xiangshan's experiment and idea of ​​"future life".

He told David that this was to study "the ecology of large immigrant ships."

He told Yawgmoth and Nyaguti that this was to save the city's floor space and allow more space for wild life.

Although many people told him, "Just bullshit," Xiangshan's behavior still gained widespread internal support.

He really loves these oversized buildings.

Most of the top floors of such buildings are sanatoriums within Superman companies. Anyone can apply and queue, and the system will weight the applicant based on his or her department and grade. (Retirees, disabled people and people injured on the job have additional special treatment)

Well, of course, Superman Enterprises also built regular sanatoriums on the ground. After all, not everyone likes the scenery of super high-rise buildings.

And the goal of the mission is right here.

Xiangshan went straight to the top with the temporary ID card of a "visitor".

Xiangshan looked at the city of Sap, which was gradually lighting up, and clenched his fists involuntarily.

- Calm.

he said to himself.

This is not Xiangshan's first time killing people.

A few years ago, the country thief may have realized that he had noticed Xiang Shan, so he sent people to attack Xiang Shan.

However, Xiang Shan fought back.

Xiangshan couldn't trust anyone. At first, he was in constant panic and could only work hard to practice his acting skills and maintain a semblance of "normality". He began to realize that the only one he could trust was himself. So, he made a bold decision.

He modified his prosthetic body, added new computing units, and then imported auxiliary AI into it.

The thieves may know all aspects of Xiangshan, but they have only ignored one game - a game that a lot of money was invested in, but only a small number of people have enjoyed.

As early as 2048, Xiangshan was able to defeat the best martial artists in the world with the assistance of AI.

Xiangshan also learned the techniques of fighting firearms from some FPS games. He knew that FPS was all fake, but in that case, he had no better way. And being "addicted to FPS games" can also allow him to naturally develop a new hobby of "becoming a military fan".

The game that came from the virtual finally became a real force.

The small group of private soldiers who raided Xiangshan's residence were armed only with light weapons.

Xiangshan won more easily than expected.

That was Xiangshan's first murder.

On that day, in full view of the public, Xiangshan killed members of the Superman Enterprise security department who might be involved in the attack.

Use both hands.

This time Xiangshan was not so sure. In fact, he did not dare to say with certainty that "he must have been killed correctly." But that was indeed the product of his eagerness to jump over the wall. He understood that since someone raided his residence, the enemy must have prepared his substitute.

What Xiangshan was thinking at the time was, "What if I destroy my identity?"

But it turns out that doesn't mean much.

Afterward, Xiangshan learned through the news that the thugs everyone saw had a different image.

Their prosthetic eyes were tampered with.

The same goes for outflow monitoring.

——Is it you at that time, Vulkan...

Xiangshan took a free drink and drank it there. He frequently greets those who pass by him, as if he is just a tourist admiring Superman's enterprise and trying to make himself noticeable.

And when Xiang Shan left this open space, he already had a magnetic card in his hand. This is an identification card only for employees. This card was casually put into the pocket by the original owner, or even exposed directly. Xiangshan stole it without leaving a trace.

Later, Xiangshan used this card to enter the logistics station of the sanatorium and took out several express items.

Then, he came to the service desk and claimed that he had picked up the magnetic card. Since the original owner treated this card like this, it means that he was reckless enough and might have lost the card often.

Finally, Xiang Shan stood at the door of the inner area of ​​the nursing home holding the express box, smiling and saying to the person behind him: "Sir, could you please open the door for me? Thank you. You see, I am not very convenient now."

happy New Year to all.
