"Just this afternoon, another piece of bad news spread throughout the United States. There was a huge explosion and fire at the headquarters of the Facebook social media company. According to the latest statistics from the frontline police, the number of victims this time has reached 1,000, possibly company employees. This is another major murder case after the murder of 1,800 people by a stranger. However, the police or the White House still haven't made any substantial progress at this time. The citizens have begun to question the White House because of the continuous crimes committed by the stranger!"
The White House Department of Defense.
The Minister of Defense had a headache!
"Tell all the reporters that they must not report that the 1,000 people who died this time were police officers! Otherwise, this will be the biggest joke of the United States! "
The President took the document and threw it at him. "You still know that this is the biggest joke of the United States? Then what are you and the entire Department of Defense doing? Tell me, how many large-scale explosions has this been? This is the United States! There have never been any explosions! But in the past three days, there have been four explosions! What is the Department of Defense doing? Every time I go out, I have to face the media and get scolded. Now, the United States is facing an unprecedented crisis of trust. If we don't catch the guests within a week and bring them to justice! Just wait to be paraded through the streets! "
The Minister of Defense smiled bitterly. "We've already organized the most elite criminal investigation team to conduct a thorough investigation."
The President was too lazy to speak.
At this moment, the people from the Ministry of Finance rushed in angrily. They slammed a lawyer's contract on the table and said to the Minister of Defense, "Look at this document yourself. The compensation from the social media company is estimated to be 35 billion dollars in direct damages from the burning of that building. According to the previous agreement, this amount of money needs to be compensated by the state. Explain to me, why did the Department of Defense make this decision in advance?"
The Minister of Defense just wanted to bang his head against the wall.
"This kind of opportunity can't be missed. According to our dozens of assumptions and simulations, as long as the guests appear, we are confident that we can catch them."
"Stop." The Ministry of Finance waved their hands and said impatiently, "I don't want to hear any explanations from you now. I'm telling you, the Ministry of Finance can't afford this amount of money! At least not now. You also know that the compensation for the families of the entire aircraft carrier and the 10,000 soldiers has already been used up! Now you're giving me 35 billion dollars. Do you want my life? "
"It shouldn't be that much, right?" The Minister of Defense frowned.
"Not that much?" The Ministry of Finance laughed coldly. "The building was destroyed and exploded, and this building cost 500 million USD to build. Other than that, the basic facilities inside cost about 100 million USD. The most expensive thing is that the servers that were not evacuated in time caused the entire social network to be paralyzed for half a day due to the building's explosion. Most importantly, because this case couldn't be kept a secret, many investors in the market thought that the social network had offended an outsider and would be attacked. This news caused the stock price to drop by 8%. Based on the current market value of the social network, 8% is equivalent to 36 billion USD."
The Minister of Defense widened his eyes. "How does that count?"
Ministry of Finance: "Why not? In the words of the social media company's legal team, they originally planned to unblock the hacker account, but because a group of police under the Ministry of Defense interfered and wanted to capture the hacker, it caused all of this to happen. Therefore, the main culprit is you. According to the contract signed by the previous FBI commander, the country will pay for it. "
“sh*t！” The Secretary of Defense paced back and forth with his hands on his hips. When he looked at the President, the latter glared at him. "Find the money yourself!"
"How would I have money? The Ministry of Defense doesn't have it either. "The Secretary of Defense waved his hand." I don't want to admit it! "
It wasn't the first time anyway, so he had plenty of ways to deny it.
"I'll handle this appeal." After the Secretary of Defense left the White House, he directly went to the FBI to negotiate with the social media company.
The Ministry of Defense formed the most elite investigation team to come to the social media company's headquarters to collect some information on the scene.
After looking at the corpse of the police officer, the team leader asked casually, "Did you see the electric motor?"
The assistant: "Yes, the voltage is no more than a thousand volts. I'm afraid it's impossible to electrocute someone like this!"
The team leader nodded, looked at the corpses, and sighed. "Another strange case. The key is where did the culprit get the electric circuit that can injure people in a large area. The voltage of this company obviously can't reach the level of leakage. Usually, there are leakage safety devices at the transformers outside. This hacker is getting more and more difficult to figure out."
The assistant had been with the team leader for so many years, so he more or less understood the analysis of these cases. These days, he had come into contact with the cases caused by the hacker, and all of them were highly intelligent and tricky problems.
"The Ministry of Defense only gave us a week to explain to the public. Right now, there are only two days left," the assistant said worriedly.
The team leader shook his head. "Don't talk about a week, even a quarter would be a problem. There are too many problems left by the hacker. The Times Square explosion, Wall Street, and here, how was the bomb brought in? If we don't solve this problem, it will be very difficult to solve the case, and the explosions will continue."
After saying that, he turned to the security team and asked, "Pardon me for asking, but how long has it been since your equipment technology has been updated?"
The security team member's expression didn't look good. "I understand what you mean. You're directly saying that our technology is backward and can't identify the bomb, right? Let me tell you, if our bomb detection technology is considered backward, then no other country in the world has the technology to throw away! You're slandering us. We've brought so much honor to the security of this country over the years. Why is the United States known as the safest country in the world? This is inseparable from the technology and security knowledge we've provided over the years. We've even provided security services to private individuals and countries around the world. We're the World Security Consultant Group. Just last year at the World Security Consultant Competition, we won first place in global security technology. I can understand your lack of experience, but please don't push the blame onto us. You can place all kinds of invisible bombs or any bombs in an ambush in a certain area. If we can't detect it, then we lose! "
The team leader of the criminal investigation team: "But the United States is the most dangerous country right now. You've checked it three times, but it still caused an explosion after all three times. How do you explain that? Haven't you ever thought that someone has already designed and developed a bomb that can block your detection equipment? "
The security team: "That's impossible! First of all, our core technology has never been leaked. How can someone who doesn't understand our technology develop a bomb that can block our detection equipment? With this technology, they can open a company and make a lot of money. There's no need to commit crimes, because this technology is more profitable than committing crimes! "
