Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

Two hours later, Zhong Meihui completed all Bitcoin transfers. Except for the 8000 Bitcoins placed in the original account, all the remaining Bitcoins were deposited into 27 newly opened wallets.

No matter where the addresses and private keys of these wallets are written, Zhong Meihui does not feel safe. After all, people who know Bitcoin can easily see what these refer to.

In order to be sure, Zhong Meihui planned to use the most effective hiding method, which was to hide a tree in a bottle of jungle.

She used a USB flash drive to copy the original English version of "Gone with the Wind". This was a novel she had prepared a long time ago. The content was very long. Almost no one had the patience to finish reading the original novel.

Then she mixed the addresses and keys of 28 wallets with the words of the novel in a way that only she could understand, and then printed them out with a printer and bound them.

This is a set of codes written by herself. Even if others see it, other than her, it will be difficult to guess its meaning. They will only think that it is a pirated novel with many wrong words.

Then she mixed [Gone with the Wind] mixed with 28 wallet addresses and private keys among a lot of Chinese and English books, burned a CD, and then stored the contents of the CD back into a USB flash drive and locked it back in the safe. inside.

In this way, Zhong Meihui’s Bitcoins can be saved in three ways: USB disk, CD, and photocopy.

No matter which one is seen by others, they will not be able to detect the real message she wants to express. They will only think that these are English novel materials.

The Apple computer used as the transmission medium was no longer useful. She unplugged the computer's network cable, reformatted all the hard drives, and reinstalled the program.

She opened the computer and found that all folders were naturally empty and all browsing paths had been cleared, but she was not sure whether a master hacker could restore a formatted hard drive.She had seen some criminal investigation bureaus before, and the people in charge of network security had such abilities.

In order to ensure that her approach was foolproof, Zhong Meihui called the person responsible for repairing the computer the next day and asked him if there was any good way to recover the formatted hard drive.

"Do you want to recover a formatted hard drive? Have you lost your work data? There are people who can do this, but the price is very high, and such experts are hard to come by. If you have lost something important, I can Let me help you ask, or you can ask the squad leader of our class, she has the widest connections in the local area, and the police should have technical personnel in this field."

Datou thought Zhong Meihui had lost important data, and was trying to help her find a way. He could also recover simple data loss, but that was only possible if it was accidentally deleted. Formatted data was not something he could solve at his level. You have to find an expert.

Datou just wanted to call others, but was stopped by Zhong Meihui.

She would ask such a question just to verify whether her idea was true. Now it has been confirmed that formatting is useless. As long as a master can recover all the data on the hard disk, there is still a chance that her key will be leaked. .

"Actually, I would like to ask if there is any way to completely erase these traces from the hard drive. I don't want others to see it."

Zhong Meihui had no choice but to tell the truth. Her words made Datou stunned for a moment, thinking that Zhong Meihui had asked many times that it is difficult to restore something in this world, but it is easy to destroy something.

"In fact, it is very simple to destroy the data on the hard drive. As long as the computer is destroyed together and the hard drive is severely physically damaged, even the best hacker will not be able to obtain information from a hard drive that has been changed beyond recognition."

Datou told Zhong Meihui the most original and effective answer. His words gave Zhong Meihui great inspiration. She must not destroy the entire computer together, because there are always people who want to remove some parts from the computer and install them in new ones. on the computer, in which case her secret might be discovered.

So the only part she wanted to destroy was the hard drive. As long as the hard drive was replaced, the computer could be used normally. At the same time, those old hard drives could also die, burying Zhong Meihui's secret forever.

"Replace the hard drive? It's from an Apple notebook. No problem. We can replace it here. You can just bring it over."

When Datou heard that Zhong Meihui wanted to replace the hard drive, he felt that it was not difficult. Although his programming level was average, changing the hardware was just a piece of cake. Moreover, the only thing in the computer that can store things is the hard drive. As long as the hard drive is replaced, everything else will be lost. Even if a person gets a computer, it is useless. No matter how advanced the technology is, the original data cannot be restored.

"Okay, I'll go there in the morning." Zhong Meihui didn't want to delay, so she went out directly with her laptop. Da Tou had been waiting for her in the store, and even the new hard drive she needed was ready.

"Mei Hui, why are you so weird this time? A new computer actually needs to replace the hard drive. There shouldn't be anything shameful in the original hard drive."

Datou said half-jokingly, thinking that there might be intimate photos of Zhong Meihui in it, that's why she seemed so nervous, and she had to make sure that nothing on the hard drive could be restored.

"Don't be ridiculous. I decided to replace my hard drive with a new one because it was poisoned over and over again. I don't want to see those messy things again."

Zhong Meihui made an excuse at random. This excuse did not sound true. Fortunately, Datou did not pursue it further. He quickly took out the old hard drive, put the new hard drive in, and then reinstalled a new system. Let Zhong Meihui try it.

Replacing the hard drive of the computer had no impact at all, and was actually faster than before. Zhong Meihui was very satisfied with this, and took the computer home after simply saying goodbye.

But the first thing she did when she got home was not to check the various functions of the new computer. Instead, she found a place where no one was around, smashed the original hard drive into pieces, and then put the pieces on the fire. In the iron bucket, I watched the material of the hard drive melt little by little.

The hard drive that originally stored data was now only a pile of burnt black material. Zhong Meihui pulled it with a branch. There was no fixed substance in the iron bucket, so it was impossible to tell what Zhong Meihui had burned.

After doing all this, Zhong Meihui completely relaxed. Except for the three things she saved, all clues about the new wallet have been destroyed. In this way, she can ensure that even the most advanced hackers on the Internet cannot steal her. She has already obtained Bitcoin T coins. In the days to come, she only needs to wait for Bitcoin T coins to rise slowly.
