Yang Yi and Brian t again, and they also t Paul, but Charles was not there; Charles was in London counter-surveilling those who were monitoring Kate.
“That’s the situation.
It seems Boer isn’t very useful now, but I still brought him along.
As for how to deal with him, we need to co to an agreent.”
After Yang Yi finished explaining Boer’s situation, he looked at Brian and said, “What do you think we should do now?”
Yang Yi was the boss of the Organization of Water, but the organization’s true mbers were actually only four people: Yang Yi, Xiao Ran, Zhang Yong, and the trapped Kate, while Mike, Brian, and their other companion were nominally part of the Organization of Water, they were in reality just collaborators or allies.
Since Yang Yi couldn’t decide everything on his own, he had to discuss matters with Brian and Mike.
Brian said indifferently, “I have no objections.
Whatever you do with Boer is fine.
I’m not interested in these matters.
What I care about is resolving Destroyer as soon as possible so that I can do what’s most important to .”
After looking at Mike, Yang Yi said in a deep voice, “If you have no objections, then we’ll keep Boer for the ti being.
I don’t know what use he might have, but I feel he might be useful in so way.
Just provide him with a place to stay and the most basic living needs, which won’t cost much.”
Brian waved his hand and said, “I don’t care about that.
Can we get to the main issue now?”
Yang Yi spread his hands and said, “Of course, onto the main issue.
The most important thing now is to take down Destroyer.
I’m back now, so we can begin that work.”
Mike said flatly, “It’s no longer a matter of interests between Dark Night Knight and Destroyer, but a matter of dignity.
Destroyer can’t possibly devote all of its attention to Kate, but they still need to station two people outside the Beautiful Restaurant.
This may seem aningless, but it shows that Destroyer hasn’t given up.”
Yang Yi nodded, then said gravely, “Destroyer can’t possibly all be guarding outside the Beautiful Restaurant, so it should be easy to get Kate out of there.”
Mike said gravely, “Charles has begun to monitor Destroyer’s two n.
Now we can track their movents, so the plan is as follows.”
Mike stood up, walked to the side, and brought back a box from inside the house, placing it in front of Yang Yi.
“What’s in the box?”
“A signal tracker.”
Mike said indifferently, opened the box, then took out a black cube.
The box had several indicator lights and four antennas, looking sowhat like a fishing lure, only smaller.
Holding the so-called signal interceptor in hand, Mike said in a deep voice, “This device’s official na should be called a mobile phone signal reception, interception, and tracking device.
It has three main functions.
First is to receive cell phone signals within a two-hundred ter radius, then you can eavesdrop on cell phone conversations.
The second function is to intercept signals, rendering the phone unable to make calls.
The third is tracking; as long as the monitored phone makes or receives a call, we can obtain the other party’s phone number, and with that number, we can then locate and find this caller.”
After putting down the signal tracker, Mike continued with a tinge of helplessness, “Eavesdropping and intercepting mobile communications is easy, but tracking signals is complicated.
It requires the cooperation of the phone company to realize this function.”
Yang Yi couldn’t help but ask, “Can we get the phone company to cooperate with us?”
Mike shrugged and said, “Like I said, if we had that one hundred million US dollars, many problems could be imdiately solved, but we don’t have money now, and without money, we can’t do anything.”
Waving the signal tracker in his hand, Mike said gravely, “Do you know how much this thing costs?
Four hundred thousand, Euros!”
Yang Yi inhaled sharply, “That expensive…”
Mike said gravely, “Don’t think it’s too expensive.
This is sothing hard to buy even if you have the money.
It was developed by the French External Security Directorate, truly spy-specific.
French products may not be reliable, but I couldn’t get better gear of the sa kind.”
After speaking, Mike looked serious and said, “You should know one thing, I paid for this device, and I don’t have much money to advance for these necessities.
So, once our Organization of Water has funds, please repay as soon as possible.”
Speaking of money made Yang Yi’s head hurt as his debts were mounting.
Yang Yi coughed twice and said, “So what’s the plan then?”
“Getting Kate out isn’t difficult or dangerous.
However, the person Destroyer has assigned to watch Kate will surely report to Bass.
When they make the call, that’s our chance to listen in and determine Bass’s location.”
Yang Yi frowned and said, “You just ntioned that this step requires the support of the phone company.
Can we manage that?”
Mike shrugged and responded, “Of course not, so we need a hacker, a very skilled one, who can breach the phone company’s systems.
That way, it would be as though we have technical support from the phone company itself.”
After saying that, Mike smiled and explained, “The whole plan is simple.
You go to pick up Kate and intentionally reveal yourself.
When the person watching Kate reports to Bass, we take the opportunity to locate Bass and take him out.
The only problem is finding a suitable hacker.”
Yang Yi said with a troubled frown, “Yeah, how do we find a hacker.”
Sighing, Mike said with a helpless face, “Hackers are actually easy to find.
There are many on the dark web who will help you, but the problem is that dark web hackers are not reliable.
It’s not that they lack skills, but hackers seldom et people face-to-face.
They prefer to resolve everything online, including paynt.”
Brian also expressed regret, “If we had enough money, we could recruit a good enough hacker, enough to establish an online intelligence center.
But unfortunately, we don’t have the funds.”
Mike said gravely, “This operation requires close coordination with a hacker because once the call ends, we lose the chance to track, and we’ll probably only have one shot.
We cannot afford to waste it, and working with a hacker who can only communicate online is too unreliable.”
Yang Yi nodded and said, “Now the only thing we lack to carry out the plan is a hacker.
There are many on the dark web, but we can’t use them.
What if we raise the price and ask the hacker to show up and act with us, would that work?”
Mike nodded and said solemnly, “We can try, but I doubt it will be successful.
We need a very good hacker, but the very good ones aren’t short of money.
They are not going to risk exposing themselves for a single job, unless you’re willing to offer a paynt they can’t refuse, and it has to be paid upfront.”
