Anling Police Station.
The breeze rustled through the green trees, creating a whispering sound as it brushed past the flagpole and made the flag flutter softly.
Inside the office, the previously tense, oppressive, and stifling atmosphere turned into astonishment in an instant, before morphing into excitement!
Chief Zhang Biao, looking somewhat aged, widened his eyes and asked again, “Qingqing, are you saying the cybersecurity issue has been resolved?”
Yu Shan and Fang Cheng both stared fixedly at Xia Qingqing.
Xia Qingqing nodded solemnly, “Yes, it has been resolved. The attacks from the overseas hacker organization have been completely nullified.”
Hisss!
“That’s fantastic!”
Zhang Biao immediately brightened up, heaving a long sigh of relief as the huge weight finally lifted from his heart.
Yu Shan took a deep breath, “Qingqing, quickly report to the chief how you resolved the issue of the massive intrusion by the overseas hackers. This represents a significant credit for your performance and a valuable experience for external cyber defense!”
Xia Qingqing pursed her lips, her complexion somewhat unnatural, “It seems… it wasn’t us who resolved it.”
“I see.”
Yu Shan’s brow furrowed slightly, and he said with a laugh, “Then it must be the higher authorities who have prevailed in the confrontation!”
“That’s right.” With the crisis averted, Zhang Biao’s mood quickly relaxed, “You should immediately start drafting a report on this cybersecurity defense. Considering the massive impact of the current situation, there is bound to be an important meeting soon…”
Ring ring ring—
Zhang Biao hadn’t finished his sentence when his phone started to ring.
The caller ID read: Director Zhong.
Zhang Biao felt a jolt in his heart, recognizing the call from the provincial leader. He quickly straightened up and answered the phone composedly, “Director Zhong, hello, this is Zhang Biao, awaiting your orders.”
From the other end of the phone came a hearty laugh.
“Hahaha, Comrade Zhang Biao, the cybersecurity defense in Anling City has been done quite well.”
Zhang Biao couldn’t hide his elation, but he didn’t dare take all the credit, “Anling’s completion of cybersecurity defense relies on the strong technical support from the provincial internet security department and guidance from Director Zhong.”
Unexpectedly.
Zhong Chengming laughed, “Comrade Zhang Biao, you don’t have to be modest. This time, Anling City turned the tide in cybersecurity defense, and I have already credited you with a merit.”
Turned the tide…
Zhang Biao was stunned, “???”
Three minutes later.
Zhang Biao put down the phone, his eyebrows tightly knit, his face etched with confusion.
He looked at the three people in the office, “Director Zhong said that Anling City turned the tide, successfully counterattacking the world-class hacker organization AW and completely depriving them of their ability to intrude.”
The expressions on the faces of the three people in the office changed, even more surprised.
Anling City turned the tide?
But Anling City had always been in a defensive position, so how could it have turned the tide?
Zhang Biao’s gaze fell on Yu Shan, “Yu Shan, did you do it?”
Yu Shan shook his head like a rattle, laughing, “Chief Zhang, you know what I’m capable of.”
“Qingqing, was it you?” Zhang Biao turned to Xia Qingqing.
Xia Qingqing immediately shook her head.
“Director Fang, was this the stroke of genius from Jintang Network Security Company?” Zhang Biao asked.
Fang Cheng twitched the corner of his mouth and shook his head in denial.
My ‘hiding from everyone’ strategy formulated in “Hacker Kingdom” hadn’t even been put into action yet when the overseas hackers retreated like the tide.
Zhang Biao was bewildered.
Xia Qingqing and the others were also bewildered.
Yet, Director Zhong expressly stated that Anling City was the number one hero of this cybersecurity defense – a confirmed piece of news from the provincial network security department and certainly not a falsehood.
“Who turned the tide?”
Zhang Biao muttered to himself in confusion.
“Director Zhang, I know who defeated AW!”
At that moment, Feng Jun stood at the office door, his eyes weary, holding a tablet.
“Who?”
Zhang Biao’s spirits lifted at the words.
“Please look at this news bulletin that Global Report just released.” Feng Jun placed the tablet in front of everyone.
All eyes were drawn to it.
On the screen, there was a girl in a black hoodie with a face mask.
Behind her was the ‘Kaspersky’ cyber attack real-time monitoring map, displaying various colors of light circling the globe and eventually targeting different regions.
At this moment, the most concentrated point of light was over Han River Province.
In China, there was a similar real-time monitoring map for cyber attacks, and they knew AW was attacking Han River.
In the video, the Global Report provided a voice-over commentary.
‘This morning, AW launched a massive cyber invasion targeting the Han River area.’
‘On the Dark Live streaming platform, the famous hacker Lena live-streamed the entire process of cyber offense and defense between AW and Han River.’
‘As we can see, overwhelmed by AW’s massive invasion, Han River seemingly stood no chance. By a conservative estimate, nearly two hundred thousand computers have become paralyzed.’
‘Just when everyone thought AW was about to declare victory…’
‘A miracle occurred!’
‘The famous hacker Lena declared this a mighty counterattack from the God of Hackers!’
‘This mysterious hacker took only ten minutes to achieve a stunning reversal!’
‘Reportedly, the AW hacker organization was defenseless.’
‘…’
The video ended with a series of images frozen on the screen.
These images all had a striking similarity, showing the screens of AW organization’s computers after they had crashed.
Everyone looked closely.
In the center of the images was a series of bright red banners, and below the flagpoles, there was the inscription ‘AW.’
These bright red banners, as though the God of Hackers were announcing to ‘AW’ and to hackers around the world that this was his absolute domain.
This was his Hacker Kingdom!
Inside the office.
Gentle breezes wafted in, soft and comfortable, mixed with the faint scent of grass and leaves, soothing everyone’s excited hearts.
Zhang Biao, Yu Shan, and Feng Jun each took a deep breath, and as they gazed upon those bright red banners, their hearts surged with passion.
The banners were waving!
This was Han River’s absolute victory against foreign hacker intrusions!
Meanwhile, Xia Qingqing and Fang Cheng simply stared at the bright red banners.
The same phrase came to mind for both of them:
‘I stand at the pinnacle of the net, overlooking my Hacker Kingdom.’
‘There, it’s full of bright red banners.’
‘Fluttering in the wind.’
Zhang Biao looked at Yu Shan and instructed, “Yu Shan, this mysterious God of Hackers is our Anling hero. We must find him, and the sooner the better! Moreover, his identity must remain a secret; everyone present must sign a confidentiality agreement, no leaks allowed!”
“Yes, Director!”
Yu Shan straightened his back, responding solemnly.
“Qingqing?”
Zhang Biao noticed Xia Qingqing was still intently watching the video on the tablet, lost in thought.
Xia Qingqing snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, a sunny and handsome face coming to her mind: “Director, I think I know who he is.”
