Another two days passed, and the discussion about the murders had almost died down. However, the illegal use of virtual projection technology was still being debated.
As for the creators and beneficiaries of those illegal games, the police still had not found them, but they were certain that these people were not in the country.
At this time, Hongxin's ten million reward came into play. In front of ten million, someone could not resist the temptation and provided Hongxin with some useful clues.
In front of a computer, Hongxin's staff was contacting that person. Lu Zixin and the other senior executives were watching from behind.
"Hello, you said that you can provide information about the activities of criminals. Is that true?" Hongxin's staff asked.
"Absolutely true. Because I have made deals with them before and bought their games. " That person was communicating with them through email. The email owner's nickname was a mess of symbols. It was obvious that it was typed randomly. Moreover, the email was from an overseas address, and it was difficult to check the online address.
"Did you find anything?" Liang Song asked the staff beside him.
"No!" The staff shook his head. "This person is very cautious. He should be a hacker or something. His address is overseas, and it's a made-up one. "
"Continue to chat and see what information he has," Lu Zixin instructed.
Before this, this person had provided them with some information about the sales channels of those games. This made them believe that this person did know something.
"Hello, please provide us with the necessary information. We will pay you according to the importance of the information." Hongxin's staff sent another email.
The other party replied, "No, I want all ten million. I am also taking a big risk. This information will definitely be useful to you! "
The staff looked at Lu Zixin. Lu Zixin said directly, "Agree."
"We agree to your conditions, but only if your information is useful."
"It will definitely be useful! I will save these emails. If you break your promise and don't pay me, I will post it on the Internet! Let everyone see your credibility! "The other party emphasized.
"Don't worry, Hongxin is a man of his word."
"Okay, all the information is in the attachment. My 10 million must be sent to me through Bitcoin, the sooner the better!" The other party directly sent over an attachment.
He was very vigilant. Through digital currency, Hongxin Group would not be able to find out who had obtained the bounty and then investigate his information.
"Open the data. Be careful not to be hacked!" Liang Song said.
The staff member was ready and downloaded the information to check.
There wasn't much content inside, but it was very useful. The other party gave them some sales channels of the behind-the-scenes team, which the police hadn't found yet.
What's more, they realized that other than the previous three games, they also had other erotic, crime, gambling games, and even virtual projection videos!
A simple estimate was that the amount of money involved was far more than the one billion mentioned before. It was possible that it was several times more!
The most important piece of information was that he had provided an address on the dark web. It was a place where one of the people behind the scenes of the game was often active. There was even more important information on it.
"Go to the Dark Web! Be careful, don't be discovered! "Lu Zixin instructed.
"Cracking in progress." The staff of Hongxin's Information Security started working together and prepared to access it.
The Dark Web wasn't a special network address, but all the networks hidden under the bright surface of the Internet. Without special channels, it was completely impossible to access.
The deeper the involvement, the more complex the Dark Web was, and the harder it was to find.
The clue provider's Dark Web was one of the more complex ones. It was very difficult to access its data.
Fortunately, the staff of Hongxin were already the world's top computer experts. With Lu Zixin watching from behind, they quickly obtained access and entered the Dark Web to check it out.
When the website was opened, a strange clown image appeared, smiling at people. The dark color scheme and environment rendering made people uncomfortable at first glance.
Lu Zixin directly cracked the external network defense and entered the main page of the Dark Web. A row of English subtitles popped up: "Welcome to the House of Darkness, Wanderers of the Night!"
The House of Darkness website had functions such as shopping malls, forums, and chat rooms.
Among them, Lu Zixin saw illegal virtual projection games and video resources.
In the shopping mall industry, the seller had specifically made a detailed introduction of the products.
"These few games were carefully created by our team. There are all kinds of scenes that you can't imagine …"
"Currently, we have released a few games in the market of Huaxia and the surrounding countries. The response is very good …"
They also posted some transaction records, all of which were digital currency transactions. It was no wonder that no one could find out. With the decentralized digital currency, the officials couldn't find out about these private transactions.
Other than that, the seller also showed off a bunch of branded watches, gold jewelry, and mosaic photos of beautiful girls with different skin colors that they had earned through the game. It was purely to show off their wealth.
At the end of the introduction, it said, "We will provide you with the virtual projection game resources and equipment resources you need!"
"That's them?" Liang Song was suspicious. "What if they're just one of the channels?"
"That's still a big fish!" Lu Zixin said. "They definitely know the production team behind the scenes. They might even be those people! These virtual projection games can't be made by a high-level production team! "
"Especially the modification of the smart products that we sell. They definitely have high-level technical talents."
"General Lu, should we hand this information to the police or …" Liang Song asked.
"Investigate first!"
