Chapter 172 Mysterious Man ZERO
The time is approaching evening, and the crowds outside the bank have gradually dispersed, leaving only some relatives or friends related to the hostages still standing outside the blockade line, anxiously waiting for the news.
The sun has set, and the police set up a searchlight inside the cordon, illuminating the whole bank very brightly.
At this moment, Brian is receiving the newly arrived taming agent Edward Tron in the communication car.
He was the person who had a call with Peter, the director of the [Police] before. Originally, he was only under the pressure of the relevant figures above, and planned to send a few good guys to settle the case at the airport, but later, he thought it was necessary to go to the scene in person.
What he really cares about is one of Peter's unintentional guesses. Kevin, a wanted criminal who has been wanted for two years. Mitnick is likely to have something to do with this group of robbers.
Although Brian was unwilling to intervene in the middle of the FBI, on the other hand, he was also secretly relieved. This time, the robber really gave him a headache. Someone came to share the pressure with him, which was exactly what he expected.
Edward is a very inconspicuous middle-aged man with a pair of eagle-sharp eyes.
After he arrived, he began to find a way to let Brian continue to stimulate the robbers rhythmically and talk to the other party as much as possible. However, after the other party answered several phone calls, he seemed to realize that if the other party had nothing to do, he would not answer the phone and warned the other party not to play any tricks. Otherwise, they don't mind tying more C4 time bombs to the hostages.
In addition, this time, the other party also made another request. They asked for air control. When they arrived at the airport, they did not want to see any moving people and objects within sight, otherwise they could not guarantee that they would harm the hostages.
This time, the request is obviously more outrageous. It is obviously impossible to carry out traffic control at New York's Kennedy International Airport. I don't know how many international flights come and go here every day, and even Edward has the right to intervene.
Negotiations have once again reached an impasse.

Lin Hong crept forward in the ventilation duct with his breath. It was not dirty. It seemed that it had just been renovated, but it was just a little dusty.
He concentrated his internal force on his hands and feet, trying to make his movements light, like a civet cat, crawling quickly in the passage.
After Lin Hong went in, he first found the direction of the warehouse next door and then stopped at a vent.
Through the metal dust net, Lin Hong saw that there was a large table in the warehouse full of baby bags. People kept taking the bags from the outside. From the sound of the impact, it could be heard that these bags must be full of valuables such as gold bars.
Why do they concentrate their things here?
Lin Hong lay there quietly watching.
After a while, a man suddenly appeared from under the table, which shocked him.
The man had a lot of dirt all over his body. After coming up, he spit a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Lin Hong noticed that the robber was not wearing blue overalls, but two-color protective clothing similar to those worn by firefighters, and also wearing helmets.
"Hey, man, pay attention. If you are seen by the boss, you will definitely be scolded to death." A robber standing next to him said, quickly took tools such as broom mops, and quickly wiped all the stains on the ground, as if they had never appeared.
"Fuck, the sewer left over from the last century is really complicated. If it hadn't been for the drawings, I would have almost lost in it!"
As he spoke, he raised a paper-sized drawing in his hand.
Lin Hong saw that this drawing was a little reflective under the light. Obviously, it had been processed. It seemed that a layer of plastic film was sealed on the drawing, which should be used for waterproofing.
"No. 5, where is the boss?"
"It should still be in the computer room. You know, this time our focus is on the bank's computer. The robbery is just by the way."
"Damn, I'm exhausted. I need to take a break. Go and tell the boss that it has been opened here. Can you start moving?
"Good! You sit here for a while, but remember not to get dirty. I'll be busy again later.
With that, the No. 5 robber walked out of the door.Lin Hong hesitated for a moment and then followed.
After turning two more corners, I finally came to the computer room. The vents of the computer room are even larger. Perhaps considering the heat dissipation, several large ventilation fans are specially installed here. However, it is usually useless to use air conditioning for refrigeration, and these fans are not turned on.
Due to Lin Hong's crawling speed, it is a little faster than Youzai's No. 5. When he reached the top of the computer room, No. 5 had not yet arrived.
Through the fan blade, Lin Hong clearly saw that the robber boss and another robber were sitting below operating the computer.
The mainframe of the bank computer room is cabinet-style, installed on the shelf of Gubao, which is locked with an iron frame. Unless the steel shelf is cut off with a tool, it cannot be moved at all.
Next to the cabinet, it is specially designed to place the laptop computer. The two of them just put the laptop room on it and stand on it to operate.
Lin Hong found a nearest vent and tried his best to adjust his eyeballs with internal force, so that he could see the content on the display clearly.
Lin Hong saw that after the robber's boss hit an order, a huge pattern composed of letters immediately appeared in the monitor, "SAS Sangtong!"
This pattern occupies the whole screen. The "S" pattern has characters. Many S forms "A" and many A are arranged. Under the large pattern, there is a line of small characters, which roughly means "telephone exchange access service, version 2.2.
The pattern stayed for a while and then flashed over, and then several color picture tools appeared. They seemed to be based on the Windows operating system, but they were different from what Lin Hong had seen before.
The robber BOSS used the mouse to operate a few times and then entered a phone number. The computer's loudspeaker suddenly remembered the noise similar to that when searching for channels on the radio station.
Then, the noise became clearer and clearer, and finally the background noise was completely removed.
"Honey, when are you going home today?"
"Honey, I'm sorry, I have to work overtime today. You know that a group of damn robbers robbed the Manhattan Trust Bank..."
"I saw it on TV. Can't you take the time line to go home today? Today is my daughter's birthday.
"I know. I have even prepared the gift. I will come back as soon as possible. My colleague is calling me... Baby, I love you!"
"I love you too!"
"Du-Du-Du--"
The busy sound of the phone came from the loudspeaker.
At this time, the 5th just knocked on the door of the computer room.
"BOSS, Rob... Oh, I'm sorry, No. 8 said that the channel was completely unblocked. Can we start moving?"
"Let's start, let them move in a quick way."
"Good!"
No. 5 immediately turned around and ran out quickly.
"No. 2, how's it going?"
"BOSS, it's still a little close. I'm going to attach this code to the system service, so that even if the bank sends security personnel to check it, it will never be found. Give me ten minutes!"
"Compeed with it, it's a little faster."
The robber BOSS explained a few words, then returned to the original position, switched from the previous SAS system, and entered a chat character interface.
ONE: The tunnel has been opened, and we are going to retreat.
ZERO: Hurry up, Edward Strong of the FBI has arrived at the scene. After a long time, the other party will definitely be suspicious. He has very rich experience in the field of anti-computer crime.
ONE: Edward? What is he doing here? I didn't know the news, and I didn't hear anything about monitoring their calls.
ZERO: What you said before made them suspicious. You are too arrogant to disclose so much information to them. Edward has begun to suspect that we have hacked into the SAS system to monitor their conversations.
ONE: Sorry, I'm a little complacent.
ZERO: There should be no big trouble. He came here mainly because he suspected that Mitnick was also involved in the robbery.
0NE: Mitnick? He has been missing for several years, and I hope he is a member of us, so that we can fully control the SAS system and even listen to their military encrypted phones at will. Over the years, I don't know where he is hiding, but there is no news at all.
ZERO: I have found some clues, and I believe that he will soon reveal the fox's tail again. As long as he appears again, I will not let him escape easily.
Zhou E, do you still remember that?
ZERO: Don't worry, I won't be angry. He holds the key to the SAS system. Even if he does not want to join us, he must get the "key" to fully control the SAS system. ZERO: After this operation, we will get enough development funds. Even without his participation, we can attract other talents.
ZERO: This operation has been delayed for too long. Evacuate as soon as possible! Remember, don't hurt the hostages again!
0NE: Got it.
The robber BOSS exited the chat program and closed the laptop.
"YES!"
At this time, No. 2 next to him cheered, and he had completely completed the work at hand.
"BOSS, it's done!"
"All right, let's retreat immediately."
The robber BOSS no longer hesitated, and immediately cleaned up the line together and restored all the layout in the computer room to its original state.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that some dust was leaking from the vent on the top of his head.
His movements were stagnant.
Looking up at the vent above his head, he immediately pulled out a pistol, moved a stool, stood on the stool, removed the iron net, and quickly looked inside, but it was empty and there was no one.
