Waldo was in the best mood on the plane. He rarely went out, spending most of his time in his mother's attic. His mission this time was easy. All he had to do was arrive at the casino before Philip and Justina, use the pinhole camera hidden behind the magazine to record how the poker machine worked, and send it back to the team for analysis. The whole process was as easy as a vacation.
The only regret was that he couldn't have a female companion like Philip did.
However, this was made up for by the first-class seats on the way to Grenoble, which was why Philip had to go to four casinos in three days to hit a royal flush.
The 01 guerrillas' previous activities were to accumulate enough funds for their next operation.
In addition to cracking slot machines, the 01 members also considered cracking ATM machines and hacking into shopping websites, using the loophole of coupons to make unlimited copies and sell them to consumers to make money. However, the former would cause too much of a commotion, and the latter would cause the website to invalidate the coupons as soon as they found out about it. This was tantamount to directly cheating consumers of money, which went against the spirit of 01. In the end, they chose to make money from the casino.
Although there was a certain risk, because the target was the casino, they didn't feel too burdened. In Waldo's words, casinos made money by tricking gamblers into playing games that they could never win. Taking advantage of the casino was considered revenge for the gamblers. Besides, it was a card picking game. They had to overcome layers of obstacles to pick the right card. No matter what, they weren't the ones who made a mistake.
Even Philip, who was the most nervous, had to admit that when he saw High Cheekbones holding the ROM reader with a victorious look on his face, he couldn't find anything. He felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, as if his IQ had surpassed High Cheekbones.
In fact, everyone in 01 was an expert in their respective fields, but they rarely used their skills to amass money through improper channels. This was the first time they had done it in a casino, and it was exciting for everyone.
It wasn't the tourist season now, and there weren't many passengers on the plane. There were only six of them in the first-class area of the flight, so it was convenient for them to communicate.
Among the five members of the 01 guerrillas, other than Phillip and Waldo, who Zhang Heng first met, and Little Boy, who he later met in the mall, Ponytail Man and a man who was wrapped up tightly. The latter had not spoken much in the cafe.
"Semi-prime, a cryptographer," Ponytail introduced.
"Semi-prime?"
The forward calculation process is very simple, and the computer won't even take half a second to complete it. However, the reverse is different. The larger the number, the more calculations and time are needed to decompose it. Perhaps hundreds of computers won't be able to complete it even after a few hundred years. The credit cards and online purchases we use now use this encryption method. Only you and the bank know how to decode two prime numbers. This is one of the most secure encryption methods currently known. "
"But?"
Semiprime smiled and did not say anything else. He shook Zhang Heng's hand and apologized, "I'm dressed like this because I have albinism. I don't want anyone to see my face."
Heng nodded in understanding.
According to Ponytail, 01 actually had another member, but due to some personal reasons, he couldn't participate in this activity. In a few days, after he finished dealing with the things at hand, he would meet up with the team.
These were all the members of 01 guerrillas.
Among them, Little Boy was the most hostile to Zhang Heng. Although Zhang Heng promised to help save people in exchange for 01's trust, Little Boy didn't buy it. The way she looked at him was full of vigilance. She turned her head to look at Ponytail. "Do we have to let this unknown guy join us? He doesn't fit the spirit of 01, does he? And Tom, according to our previous agreement, more than two-thirds of the members must agree to let a newcomer join us. "
Ponytail smiled bitterly, not knowing how to respond.
That being said, it was their fault for being caught in one fell swoop. In this situation, what could they do even if they disagreed?
As the person involved, Zhang Heng seemed very calm. He said to Little Boy, "I can make up for your last shortcoming."
"Shortcoming? We are all the best people in our respective fields, and the 01 guerrillas are the perfect team. We can overcome any difficulties, "Little Boy said, unconvinced.
"Technically, yes, but your shortcoming is also very obvious. There is no actor in your team. For example, right now, the five of you have no chance of winning against me." Phillip was ashamed.
Zhang Heng was right. The biggest problem of the 01 guerrillas was that all the members were technical personnel. In theory, they were all logistics personnel. Even they had trouble dealing with a slot machine. It was hard for Phillip to imagine if he were to face Black Nest's people head-on. After all, not everything could be solved with technology.
Little Boy had never seen Zhang Heng's skills before. She wanted to say something, but the next moment, a metal knife appeared on her neck.
Ponytail was shocked. "How did you bring this knife on the plane? Did you hack the airport's security system?"
On the other side, Waldo was even more impressed. "Master! I only found out today that Jason Bourne really exists!"
Suddenly being so close to death, a flash of fear flashed in Little Boy's eyes. Her skin that was touched by the metal knife had goosebumps. However, unlike what she imagined, Zhang Heng did not take this opportunity to threaten her. It seemed that he had no intention of retaliating against her. With a gentle shake of his fingers, the knife disappeared from his fingertips.
Zhang Heng then said, "This is how a team works. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. I heard from Tom that you are an excellent communications expert. I look forward to working with you in the future."
Looking at the palm that was stretched out in front of her, Little Boy hesitated for a moment before extending her right hand. However, she only shook Zhang Heng's hand briefly before quickly retracting it as if she was afraid of getting scalded.
"Okay, since everyone has gotten to know each other, we can start discussing our next action."
Seeing that the most troublesome problem was solved so easily, Ponytail admired Zhang Heng. He then opened his laptop and showed Zhang Heng the photos on it.
"I remember you said 'him' before," Zhang Heng said, looking at a female student with a sweet smile on her face.
"Uh, because I didn't know your position at that time. It's always good to be careful." Ponytail pointed to the girl in the photo and said, "She is Edward's sister and the person he cares about the most. After Edward escaped, Black Nest had their eyes on her. Edward was worried that if he released the information in his hand, Black Nest would come after her first. So, we must rescue her first."
