"Don't you understand?" Reinz smiled and looked at Als's confused expression. "Let me first tell you what the chessboard wheat grain theory is. This is a fable from ancient India."
"The king wanted to reward his minister and asked him what reward he wanted. The minister pointed to the 64-square Go board and said, you just need to reward me with grains of wheat. For example, reward 1 grain of wheat on the first square, and 1 grain of wheat on the second square. The top square will reward 2 grains of wheat, the third square will reward 4 grains of wheat, and the fourth square will reward 8 grains of wheat. Each time it will be twice as much as the previous square."
Als was confused, "...What does it matter? And it's not too much..." Each time it was only twice as much as the last time.
"Not too much? Do you know how many grains of wheat are in total if all 64 squares are calculated according to the doubling rule?"
“…”
"A total of 18446744073709551615 grains." Reinz looked at the display screen expressionlessly and said calmly: "More than a hundred years ago, it would have taken the world five hundred years to produce so many wheat grains."
Als frowned, "But what does this have to do with email forwarding?"
"The mail forwarding of that program is based on the chessboard theory. The number of forwardings each time is twice that of the previous one, and the mailboxes are randomly selected. They are only used for forwarding and are not retained in the forwarding mailbox. The purpose is to prevent others from tracing the whereabouts of those emails. - So how do you find them?"
"If you replace wheat grains with the number of retweets, that means that in the past hour, a total of 18446744073709551615 times were retweeted. If you replace it with time, one retweet is calculated as one-tenth of a second, which is more than 58 billion years. - Al Si, are you sure you want to pursue this for so long?"
Als almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, "Who is so cunning?! Come up with such a damn program! I will peel off her skin! I swear I will peel off her skin! - Is there nothing we can do? Yet?!"
Reinz looked at his traceability results and frowned slowly.
The forwarding of this program simply shuttles through the network in geometric progression.
The other party is very cunning. Every mailbox that receives mails is also a forwarding mailbox. They forward them one by one, and in the end it feels like they are back to the original point. Of course, this is an illusion.
Reinz knew that these documents must have gone to a certain place, but where exactly that place was, according to his ability, he could not find it at all.
If you use the extreme method, there may be a glimmer of possibility.
But that kind of astronomical amount of calculations would take tens of billions of years to calculate even with the most powerful supercomputer in the world.
Can you afford to wait
Besides, electronic information spreads too quickly. If it cannot be found and destroyed immediately, leakage is inevitable.
Reinz sighed and shook his head, "Large-scale leaks are inevitable. The only way now is to activate emergency emergency measures."
"Ah?" Als was stunned for a moment, "Emergency measures?"
"Yes, all intelligence personnel will change their keys and stop all activities. Foreign personnel will return home quickly. No matter what they are doing, stop immediately." Reinz paused and then said: "In addition, the system here is backed up every day. Pull out the most recent backup for me. The other party has deliberately made a big deal, and must have started checking in a few days ago. If you want to find traces, you can only look in the system backups from the past few days."
"You make the decision, I'll listen to you." Als waved his hand, his face turned pale.
Reinz sat alone in the central control room and called up the last backup before today's accident.
This system will be backed up twice a day, at 12 noon and midnight. At different times and locations, there will be overall backup.
Reinz had his own retrieval program in this system. After pulling out the backup, he started his own retrieval program and started scanning the system before the accident just like he was searching for viruses.
This program can detect unstable factors that invade the system. It is not necessarily a Trojan horse. As long as it does not match the system key, it will be marked as an "unexpected" program.
It will take at least 24 hours to scan the entire huge system.
Reinz was not in a hurry. He sat in the central control room with his arms folded, feeling very confident.
He will definitely find this person.
…
it is finally over.
Gu Nianzhi raised his eyes and looked out the window and saw that it was getting bright.
The original desktop appeared on the laptop display, and her previous input traces here had been erased by the Devourer program.
The laptop now looks exactly like it did before she started using DOS to circumvent block words.
Gu Nianzhi went to the bathroom to wash his face, then came out with his laptop to find the landlady, "Look, why can't I connect to the Internet?"
The landlady seemed to be worried. She looked at the computer absently and said, "Maybe the line here is broken, and there's nothing I can do about it."
"That's it..." Gu Nianzhi looked disappointed, "Okay, then I'll go watch a movie."
The bartender couldn't see Gu Nianzhi's depressed look, so he quickly took out his mobile phone and gave it to her, "I have data here, you can use it to play."
"Thank you!" Gu Nianzhi's eyes lit up and he shook the bartender's arm in surprise, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
The bartender's ears turned red quietly.
But the lady boss suddenly turned her head and said loudly to the bartender: "What are you thinking?! Are you rich? Yesterday you asked me to borrow money to pay the phone bill! Where did you get the traffic?!"
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
The bartender was startled, subconsciously clenched his phone, and gave Gu Nianzhi a helpless look.
Gu Nianzhi retracted his hand and said nonchalantly: "...It's okay, it's okay, I'll go back to sleep."
She returned to her room with her laptop, locked the door, stretched, and went to bed.
She didn't sleep all night last night and she was almost sleepy.
As soon as her head hit the pillow, she fell asleep immediately.
…
As usual, He Zhichu opened the backend of his social media account every day and checked the private messages inside.
His fingers slid across quickly, his brows furrowed slightly, feeling a little impatient.
There were too many private messages from those nymphos. If it wasn't for the sake of reading, he wouldn't bother to read the confessions of these nymphos.
He was afraid that he would miss Nianzhi's private message because of his impatience, so he read it all without saying a word even if veins popped out on his forehead.
Given the popularity of his account, he receives thousands of private messages every day.
It would take several hours to look through each of these.
It has been two days since he arrived in Berlin. He has sent many people out to look for him, but there is still no news.
On this day, the first thing he did when he woke up in the morning was to take out his mobile phone and check the background private messages of his social media account.
After browsing through them one by one, my fingers suddenly stopped.
He Zhichu suddenly sat up from his bed, his nightgown half-covered, revealing his delicate collarbones and muscular chest, but his eyes were only fixed on his mobile phone.
There was a private message, there was a private message with just one word: "GESTAPO."
He Zhichu was very proficient in German, and he recognized it as the German abbreviation of the word "Gestapo" after just one glance!
The fog that had been shrouding him suddenly dissipated, and what had been vaguely disturbing to him these days was finally confirmed!
He had begun to suspect that Gu Nianzhi's disappearance was related to the German government.
With the intensity of his search, he would have found it long ago if the government hadn't deliberately concealed it.
And he originally planned that if he still couldn't find Nianzhi one day, he would use other methods to directly put pressure on the German government!
This private message from an unknown source confirmed He Zhichu's suspicion.
Only the Gestapo could wipe away all traces of Gu Nianzhi's journey.
Ordinary gang organizations simply cannot do this.
Haha, Gestapo
If Nian Zhi is not handed over, he will make the German Federal Intelligence Agency undergo a major overhaul from top to bottom.
Getting up from bed, He Zhichu put on a Bluetooth headset, washed up, and assigned tasks to his men.
"... Go and check to see what bases the German Federal Intelligence Service has in Berlin, including all their locations. Also, check to see if anything special has happened to them recently."
He Zhichu's men were very capable, and by noon, a lot of news was quickly fed back.
"Mr. He, the Federal Intelligence Agency has its headquarters in Berlin and several branch offices. In addition, there should be various disguised locations. It is difficult to find them for the time being. Please give us more time."
He Zhichu frowned in displeasure, "If I have time, will I ask you to check it out?"
His subordinates couldn't argue with their master, so they had to change the topic, "But yesterday, I heard that the Federal Intelligence Agency suffered a huge blow. The whole situation is currently in a state of paralysis. All the personnel are pretending to be dead and refuse to speak properly no matter what they ask. .”
"Oh?" He Zhichu became a little interested, leaned forward and asked, "What's the big fight?"
"Their intranet was hacked last night, and it is said that they suffered heavy losses."
He Zhichu: “…”
"I also heard that the hacker is very powerful, codenamed 'Pink Piggy'."
He Zhichu: "!!!"
"What do you mean? Why is it called 'Pink Piggy'?" He Zhichu's heart was beating fast uncontrollably, and his head began to hurt again.
"It is said that there are rumors in the international hacker community that this 'pink pig' is a young girl and a genius programming master." He Zhichu's subordinates also yearned for this "pink pig", and their faces were full of dreams when he talked about it. look.
He Zhichu glanced at him with disgust and said coldly: "Stop your salivating face, is she someone you can covet?"
"Mr. He, I just admire people like this. There is no need to use such a serious word as 'covet'." His subordinates, who were also familiar with He Zhichu, defended themselves with a playful smile.
He Zhichu snorted and gently stroked his delicate chin with one hand. He lowered his eyes and looked at the private message "GESTAPO" on his phone and said slowly: "Send a letter to the Federal Intelligence Agency and say, A friend of mine is a guest at their place and it’s time to send her back.”
