Spy Family

After getting into the car, Professor Qiao took a look at the items piled behind the car, Have you settled in the car?

For the time being. Lu Linbei started the vehicle, Address?

Professor Qiao chuckled twice, seemingly quite satisfied with Lu Linbei's miserable situation, and then gave the address of a hotel, Can you afford it?

Don't I still have a car?

That's right. Professor Qiao let out a calm sigh.

In the restaurant, Professor Qiao ordered a lot of food, enough for five or six people to gather for dinner. It took a lot of effort to stuff it into the car, and he had to stack several boxes on his lap.

He gave another address, ate a box of pastries on the way, and raved about it. He didn't look like the same person as the psychiatrist in the clinic.

He called Li Feng back. He was two years below us in college. We met him in 'Breaking Point' and became friends.

Explosive point?

Professor Qiao ate half full and temporarily lost interest in food. Everyone is arrogant and ignorant when they are young, and they want to change the world and create a new starting point. We call it the 'explosion point'. Ah, what a period. In the good old days, all kinds of ideas came out one after another. Sometimes when I thought of something in the middle of the night, I would knock on the door and call everyone up to discuss it.”

Lu Linbei smiled and said nothing, and he didn't know whether it was the laughing or the silence that angered the other party. Professor Qiao said viciously: Love has no place in Explosion Point. Just talking about it will make you laugh, let alone There are people who are hurt by love, just like you.”

Believe it. Even if Lu Linbei had nothing to ask for from Professor Qiao, he would not argue with him.

Ideals are no match for reality. Professor Qiao looked down at the cartons containing food, showing an expression of extreme disgust, as if he wanted to throw them all out, but in the end he just threw his eyes out the window with nothing to gain, We Among that group of people, Mao Kongshan is the luckiest. His favorite major is exactly the same as his family's expectations for him. After graduation, everything goes smoothly. Mei Runheng is the smartest. He knows how to suppress his true preferences and accepts the family's arrangements. He is better than everyone in his career. Everyone wants to succeed, and Li Fenghui is the proudest. His family does not support him, he has severed ties with his family, and the world does not understand him. He chooses to be a bystander to the world. As for me...sigh.

You all come from the same family? Lu Linbei was a little surprised.

Of course, and they are real family members, not 'bought' seeds, like you. In Professor Qiao's mouth, like you is never a good thing.

Lu Linbei didn't even have the slightest fluctuation in his heart. He drove into a dark street and said, Have you never thought about reconciling with your family?

Why reconciliation?

Because - reality?

The reality is that if we fall into the water from the boat, we will drown, freeze to death, or be eaten by big fish at any time. But looking back, we can see that the boat is sinking slowly. Do we need to get up again?

You have to solve the immediate problem first.

Professor Qiao laughed suddenly, stretched out his hand and patted Lu Linbei's shoulder hard, With these words, you and Li Feng will be able to talk together later.

I don't know much about computers.

If he is just a computer expert, why would Explosive Points absorb him?

Lu Linbei parked the car on the side of the road.

The streets were dilapidated, as if they had just been bombed by artillery bombs. Most of the street lights were not working. The buildings on both sides were mostly more than ten stories old. Arguing and laughing like no one else was around.

The buildings here are at least a hundred years old. Professor Qiao introduced like a tour guide, and then led the way into the building door. Instead of going up the stairs, he opened a door in the dark that outsiders couldn't even notice, and walked towards Walk underground.

The two of them were holding many cartons in their hands, so they walked more carefully. Professor Qiao finally knocked on the door with the toe of his shoe. From the sound, it was a heavy metal door.

The light finally appeared, dispelling all the unknowns and fears in the darkness. A man stood at the door, wearing a fitness vest, opening his muscular arms, and laughed loudly: Welcome, my old friend. After that, he took Professor Qiao. The catering box in his hand, and two delivery guys, haha.

Li Feng was two years younger than Professor Qiao, but judging from his appearance, he was at least twenty years younger. His muscles made even Lu Linbei envious.

Behind the door is a huge room filled with various fitness equipment. A long table is placed against the wall in the innermost part, which is full of microcomputers and different types of monitors.

There is only one chair in the huge room, so food and guests need to find another place.

Li Feng replied to the guest with some pride: I just started working out five years ago. The results are good, right?

Very good. Lu Linbei said sincerely.

A serious illness made me understand the importance of fitness. Sweating for a year made me realize the joy of fitness. Professor Qiao, I haven't seen you for a few days and you look even weaker. Come and exercise with me. You can use these equipment as you like. use.

Humph, I would rather my heart stop beating tomorrow than do such a stupid thing of self-destruction.

Self-destruction proves that you are still alive. When you can't move, others will destroy you.

The two of them were chatting and eating. One of them didn't want to ask, the other didn't want to introduce, and left Lu Linbei aside.

Professor Qiao still ate more. Li Fenghui was very restrained in his diet and had to exercise for a few minutes even if he had one more bite. Lu Linbei ate not too much and took advantage of Li Fenghui to temporarily shut up while playing with dumbbells to introduce himself. Said: My name is Lu Linbei, and I would like to ask Professor Li for a favor.

Li Fenghui put down the dumbbells and said with a smile: I'm not a professor.

Mr. Li. Lu Linbei changed his title.

Li Fenghui obviously didn't like this term either, but he thought it wasn't worth correcting, so he lowered his lips and reluctantly accepted, You need to find someone, right?

Yes, her name is...

Chen Manchi.

Lu Linbei was surprised. He did not remember ever revealing his name to Professor Qiao.

I was asked by Professor Qiao to check your address before. I was bored and checked your relevant information. I found that in addition to eating and online shopping, you had paid bills twice through a woman named Chen Manchi. Go to the account of a fortune-telling shop. I wonder why you, an investigator, want to tell fortunes? Do you use metaphysics to find information? So pay more attention to Chen slowly. Just now, Professor Qiao asked me to find someone, and my first reaction was you. As a result, Your information was not deleted, so I looked for Chen Manchi again, and sure enough, 'No such person was found'.

Professor Qiao, who was still eating, said vaguely: Lao Feng likes to make inferences.

It turned out that Lao Feng was the official title, and Lao Bei decided not to change his name for the time being.

Have you found out her whereabouts? Lu Linbei suddenly felt much more relaxed.

What's so difficult about this? Let me explain in advance that this is the whereabouts of the information, not her own whereabouts.

Professor Qiao was satisfied with his meal and felt better. He loudly said, Tell him how you found it.

Lu Linbei didn't want to hear this, but Li Feng was extremely interested, so he could only endure it.

Where else can you find deleted things? Of course it's in the trash. Haha. Li Feng dragged the guest back to the long table, What do you see?

Microcomputer.

What's in the microcomputer?

Uh, chips and stuff like that.

What about the software level?

Operating systems, application software... I don't know much about them.

Let me tell you, it's all rubbish. The software of a microcomputer, from the bottom to the surface, is 80% rubbish. As for the Internet, more than 90% is rubbish...

Professor Qiao interjected: Decades ago, you said 90% of it was rubbish, haven't you added more now?

The proportion has not changed much. Well, let's calculate it to 91%. There is so much garbage in the network code. Where does the garbage come from? Four words, accumulated over time, from the age of the earth to today, hundreds of years, and the speed of garbage generation Above normal content.”

Lu Linbei didn't care about this, but he couldn't afford too much funding, so he had to pay some price in terms of language, so he asked along the way: Can't it be demolished and rebuilt?

This is a good question, is it possible? In theory, it is possible, but in reality, it is not possible, because-

Professor Qiao put down the cardboard box, raised his arms, and waved them like a band conductor, in exactly the same tone as Li Fenghui.

“Because—human beings have always only solved immediate problems.”

Professor Qiao laughed, What am I talking about? You two have something in common. Lao Feng, this Lu Linbei said something similar to this not long ago.

I just said it casually without much thought. Lu Linbei really didn't want to dwell on one sentence for too long.

Li Feng's eyes lit up and he became more interested. He stretched out his hand to hold Lu Linbei's arm, I studied for a long time before I figured it out. Because microcomputers are obviously getting newer and smoother, and the Internet is getting simpler and simpler. How can it be a garbage dump? ? Because the vast majority of people don’t go deep into the code. Just like the garbage island, it looks glittering from a distance. Only when you get close to or even land on the island can you see how much garbage there is. And just like the garbage island, the code will also collapse. , in history, this kind of thing has happened at least six times, an average of once every fifty years. What should the programmers do? No one dares to rebuild from the bottom, because that means the entire society has to be restarted. They, we, can only start from the bottom. Repair the broken position, whether it is one meter above the ground, or a hundred meters, or a thousand meters, add two pillars, add some glue, anyway, it can still be piled up. The immediate problem is solved, and the future problems will be solved. To the people in the future. Everyone says it will last for a hundred years, but in fact, they pray in their hearts that they can hold on until tomorrow.

So it's possible to get the deleted online information back? Lu Linbei had to get the topic on track, otherwise, Li Feng looked back and could talk all night.

Yes, but only in fragments. Restoring the garbage to its original state is as difficult as time travel.

I want a piece too.

Li Feng returned to operating a microcomputer with a holographic display. After pressing a few times with his fingers, a large number of web pages popped up. Li Feng stepped aside and said with a smile: You didn't see me flying around with my fingers, typing here and there. Aren't you a little disappointed? Haha. , everything in the movie is fake. Can’t you write a program for the work you do every day? You have to type the code on the spot, which is stupid.”

It is indeed Chen Manchi. Her records, images, and videos are so numerous that she can’t even take a look at them at the moment.

Can I make a copy?

Of course. But don't expect too much, there are almost no complete things, it's all fragments.

At least it proves that she is real and not my fantasy.

Do you want to know what her name is now and where she is?

Lu Linbei was stunned, This is what I want most!

If you hadn't told me earlier, you could only find deleted content in the trash. But... Li Fenghui blinked slyly.

How much is it?

Money? I'm not short of money. Although I'm not rich, I'm not poor either. Li Fenghui deliberately lowered his voice, It's not illegal to dig through the garbage, but it's different to enter other people's homes. It's a felony. Do you understand?

Finding unremoved information requires hacking into official websites.

That's right.

But you once asked me to rent a house...

The rental information is almost semi-public. To find a person who has no name but only an appearance, it is different. You need to enter the monitoring system for a lot of comparisons, and you also need to enter several internal systems to read the information.

you mean……

I won't do anything illegal. Li Feng pushed a ring-like thing into Lu Linbei's hand, The content you want to copy is there, but I can't guarantee that there is no virus in it. You have to be careful, you may cause trouble. Don't look for me.

Absolutely not, and even if I enter someone else's house, I won't take anything. I'll just look at them a few times, which is considered peeping.

Haha, no matter what the outcome is, just tell me.

Lu Linbei understood that the so-called result Li Fenghui referred to was the effectiveness of the procedure, not the whereabouts of Chen Manchi, so he gave a heavy hum.
