Three hours later, Qin Feng returned to the provincial department.
As he drove, a question occurred to him.
Could it be that he had to keep hacking into the cameras along the way?
Constantly disabling them wasn't a sustainable solution.
After careful consideration, a smile curved Qin Feng's lips.
If he was going to play, he might as well play big. Small skirmishes were too boring. He had to at least give Fan Tianlei a grand gift.
Immediately, Qin Feng turned and ran in the opposite direction of the warehouse.
Meanwhile, on the other side, at the Criminal Police General Corps building.
Inside the command center, Wen Changlin looked at the screen and asked:
"How many have we caught?"
"So far, thirty-five in total across all cities," an intelligence officer reported.
Wen Changlin nodded in satisfaction, saying:
"Good, this is a decent result. Over thirty arrested in less than a day. Tell them to step up their efforts. I'll grant commendations for every arrest."
A female police officer approached, showing concern:
"Director Wen, you've been here all day. Why don't you go to the lounge for a rest? I'll keep an eye on things here and call you if anything happens."
"Alright, you two keep watch. I won't be polite," Wen Changlin agreed. After all, the real show was just beginning, and he couldn't afford to get tired.
Wen Changlin went back to his office and slowly lay down on the sofa to rest.
As night fell, Qin Feng, using his camouflage technique, quietly infiltrated the Criminal Police General Corps building.
Once inside, Qin Feng made his way towards the target, the server room.
Soon, Qin Feng arrived at the server room door.
However, the server room was a critical confidential area within the Criminal Police General Corps.
Naturally, it was guarded.
But could that stop Qin Feng?
With a few quick moves, the two officers guarding the server room were subdued by Qin Feng.
After securing the two officers, Qin Feng immediately took out his secondhand laptop.
He connected an unused network cable from the chassis and smiled at the data displayed on the laptop.
Then, he began to operate the laptop with great speed.
Soon, Qin Feng used his hacking skills to infiltrate the Criminal Police General Corps' internal network.
Looking at the connected internal network, Qin Feng wore a satisfied smile.
The next second, he immediately typed on the computer that this mission was an exercise, ordering all police forces to withdraw immediately and cease pursuing the targets, and that the alarm was lifted.
Having done this, Qin Feng put away his laptop and silently slipped out of the Criminal Police General Corps building.
As soon as he exited the building, Qin Feng stopped and looked at the Criminal Police General Corps building with a slight smile.
Now, how will you continue?
He thought to himself, after his operations, this test should be nearing its end.
Without further thought, Qin Feng's figure disappeared into the night once more.
...
The next morning.
After completing his series of actions last night, Qin Feng found a hotel and slept soundly.
Upon arriving at the assembly point this morning, he saw He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, and Li Erniu also present.
However, the three of them looked rather disheveled. Wang Yanbing was covered in chicken feathers, Li Erniu was dressed as a migrant worker, and even He Chenguang's clothes were tattered.
The three returned, met at the warehouse door, and embraced, shedding tears of emotion.
At this moment, Qin Feng walked over and said with a wry smile:
"I say, the three of you, it was just about hitching a ride. Was it necessary to make yourselves look so pathetic?"
"Do you think we're all as monstrously powerful as you? It's a miracle we made it back alive," the three of them collectively rolled their eyes at Qin Feng.
Li Erniu, in his simple way, was the first to ask: "Qin Feng, when did you get back?"
"I came back that same night. Was it difficult?" Qin Feng retorted.
He Chenguang: "..."
Wang Yanbing: "..."
Li Erniu: "..."
The three of them didn't want to speak, they just wanted to give Qin Feng a big eye-roll.
Qin Feng ignored their expressions and turned to walk towards the warehouse.
Upon entering the warehouse, Qin Feng noticed Chen Shanming looking at him with a peculiar expression. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing.
Qin Feng shrugged nonchalantly and found his team to stand with.
Soon after, He Chenguang and the other two entered the warehouse.
It seemed Qin Feng's arrival had triggered something.
After He Chenguang and the others, it wasn't long before more and more personnel entered.
Seeing the increasing numbers, Fan Tianlei suddenly asked: "How many rookies have arrived?"
"Report, thirty rookies."
"Not bad, much better than I expected..."
Fan Tianlei said a few words subconsciously, then seemed to suddenly realize something, his expression turning astonished as he shouted:
"Thirty?"
Fan Tianlei's eyes were almost bulging out of his sockets.
Only thirty were left, and they had all made it?
"Yes, besides the initial thirty-five rookies who were captured, all subsequent rookies have reached the assembly point."
Chen Shanming, looking at the intelligence in his hands, also frowned as he replied.
Upon hearing this, Fan Tianlei's face darkened. He vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
Meanwhile, at the Criminal Police General Corps building.
Wen Changlin looked at the leaders standing before him with their heads bowed, and he had already guessed what had happened.
However, he suppressed his anger and did not lash out.
After a moment, an intelligence officer reported:
"Report, Director, our Criminal Police General Corps internal network was hacked yesterday, and..."
"And what?" Hearing the intelligence officer's hesitant words, Wen Changlin, his face grim, demanded angrily.
"And the perpetrator used your identity to recall all police officers, stating that the appearance of armed individuals in various cities was a joint military-police exercise, and ordered them to cancel their missions..."
*Bang!*
Hearing this, Wen Changlin angrily slammed his palm on the table.
"Are you all imbeciles? Even if this mission was an exercise, they were carrying real weapons. Would I issue such an order for people like that to be roaming freely? What are you thinking?"
Wen Changlin was angrily reprimanding his subordinates.
*Ring ring ring...*
Suddenly, his phone rang in his pocket.
Wen Changlin answered, and before he could speak, Fan Tianlei's voice came through.
"Old Wen, what's going on? Why have all the rookies been let back? Has your police force's strength declined so rapidly?"
Hearing Fan Tianlei's words, Wen Changlin gave a helpless, wry smile and said:
"Old Fan, I... never mind, let's meet and talk."
With that, Wen Changlin hung up the phone, glanced at his subordinates, and shook his head helplessly.
Then he drove to the parking lot alone, got into his car, and headed towards Fan Tianlei's warehouse.
A while later.
Wen Changlin pushed open the door and walked in.
At this moment, Fan Tianlei had been waiting for him by the entrance of the warehouse.
"Old brother, what exactly is going on?"
Basic pleasantries were skipped. Upon seeing Wen Changlin arrive, Fan Tianlei quickly stood up and went to meet him, asking:
Wen Changlin looked at Fan Tianlei and then explained helplessly:
"It's like this, last night someone infiltrated the Criminal Police General Corps, used hacker methods to break into the internal network, and used my identity to issue orders that this mission was an exercise, the alarm was lifted, and all police forces were to be recalled immediately. That's why..."
Hearing Wen Changlin's words, Fan Tianlei, Chen Shanming, and Miao Lang, who knew the situation, all subconsciously looked at Qin Feng.
This was because they knew that only Qin Feng had demonstrated his hacking skills in front of them, had disabled the cameras, and had also been the one to buy a laptop.
Could it be that this fellow Qin Feng had infiltrated the internal network of the Criminal Police General Corps?
