The hacker organization Epiphany hacked the omni-channel advertising of GG Company, just to attract the big hacker Signale of Huaguo——

This shocking news quickly ignited the enthusiasm of the whole network.

Just a few hours later, all major online news headlines have been replaced.

Although netizens may not understand the technical principles, they are happy to talk about such a major event that happened around them.

On the forums as small as D, some students opened several posts to brag;

So big that on the world's largest video website, the video at that time has already appeared in the forefront of the hot search list.

Even on the TV of the White Eagle Country that night, it appeared: [The hacker organization Epiphany announced the acceptance of the ransomware author Barrie, claiming to be responsible for the ransomware incident that prevailed in September, and openly recruited the Chinese hacker Signale...]

While the hacker organization became famous in one fell swoop, it also put the name of Signale on the forefront.

In the video, the mask said: [If it were you, you should be able to discover the little secrets hidden by the villains, and use this secret to find us...]

Shiye knew what he was referring to.

The so-called "little secret hidden by the bad guys" refers to the butterfly logo hidden in the ransomware virus.

A few days ago, Shi Ye captured a virus sample from the server of the virus author Barry. It was a feathered snake he had seen before, but inside it was a kernel encrypted by another shell.

He pondered for a long time, not knowing how to unlock this layer of core.

Until this afternoon, a kind of inspiration came from somewhere, as if the key was handed over to him.

- is the "buffer".

The infected kernel used by ransomware is exactly the "buffer overflow" attack!

In the evening, the library was silent.

Many students study scattered, and no one pays too much attention to others.

Shiye sat in the corner, focused his eyes on the screen, tapped the keyboard gently and rhythmically with his slender fingers, as if the instrument was performing precise operations, and solved a mystery layer by layer.

He unlocked the "secret" on the ransomware.

At that moment, the butterfly symbol flapped its wings vividly and bumped into him head-on.

A whole electronic world unfolded in front of him again.

The butterfly is an invitation, fluttering lightly to lead him to a secret server.

They moved forward along the drift of data, and the silver-white world gradually became dark, as if the night was unfolding under the hands of the gods.

The fluorescent data in the dark are dotted, as if the Milky Way is falling, being gathered into a large pocket.

They passed through many buildings in the night, including a weapon hut with dilapidated neon signboards, many strange beasts imprisoned in iron cages, a prophet's stall in strange costumes, and a bar that accommodates gatherings of evil creatures...

This is the "dark web".

In other words, this is part of the "dark net", which cannot be touched by law.

Butterfly ended up in a small mansion in the dark.

In front of the mansion, Shi Ye picked up a mask and put it on.

Pushing open the door, I saw four people wearing masks sitting down at the long dining table inside.

The leader was wearing a black and white mask, spread his hands, and smiled with the electronic voice that appeared in the video: [Welcome, Signale.I am Fennel, leader of Epiphany, and this is one of our meeting places... . 】

[Signale (new member) has joined the anonymous chat. 】

[Fennel: Welcome. 】

[Fennel: Maybe I should introduce it first.Our membership structure is very simple, there are currently four members, and we sincerely invite you to join us.First, Blady is our vanguard, also known as the invader. 】

[Blady: Hi, handsome guy. 】

[Fennel: "Eternal Blue" is Blady's masterpiece. 】

[Signale: Eternal blue? 】

[Fennel: This is the invitation letter you found, the infection core of the ransomware virus—since you have cracked the virus, you must already know the principle of "Eternal Blue". 】

【Signale: ..】

[Blady: Oh, another geek who doesn't like to talk, I'm leaving the boss. 】

[Fennel: Come on, my lady.I hope Signale can join us, we still lack a strong offensive force like him. 】

[Signale: I'm not interested in you. 】

[Fennel: Since you got the invitation letter, why don't you get to know us first?Our organization is not terrorists working to disrupt the status quo online, we are builders. 】

【Fennel: We are here to build an open and transparent electronic world.The media can't turn black and white, the government can't cover up mistakes, and the public can't incite public opinion, so let the facts be clearly and plainly listed in front of everyone, isn't it good? 】

[Signale: Not interested. 】

[Signale has left the anonymous chat. 】

Shiye quickly cleaned up the traces and left this dark web.

Suddenly, he realized that there were two more footprints behind his traces—someone was following him.

It's Epiphany's people, and sure enough they won't let Signale go easily.

There are no rules on the dark web, and this group of hackers are chasing him wantonly!

Butterfly, representing the hacker organization, rushed up quickly, and was about to cut off Shi Ye's retreat.

Fortunately, Shi Ye took the first step, cut off his own springboard after leaving the dark net, and opened up the arrangement before his departure at a critical moment.

[The honeypot system is running... Tracking detected! 】

[The tracking behavior is being relocated. 】

[Please select a relocation target [optional]: ..]

Shi Ye moved his fingers, and a very rare smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

……

That night, in the chat room of the hacker organization.

[Fennel: Blady, can you locate Signale? 】

[Blady: Don't worry, I'm still tracking.Oh, he is very cautious, using multiple springboards, he has circled the earth three times...]

[Fennel: Of course, he is a lone ranger. 】

[Blady: But we took the initiative. 】

[Blady: I ​​found him!What a majestic workstation, IP is 71.135.13.89, Fennel, I need your help! 】

[Fennel: Of course. 】

At the same time, in a certain network security technical team.

"Boss! We are under attack from Epiphany!"

Yu Jingshu woke up suddenly: "What? The hacker group that attacked GG's advertisement during the day, why did they attack us?"

"I don't know, there was no warning, and no words were delivered. Suddenly and inexplicably began to attack our No. 89 workstation!"

Yu Jingshu: "Tsk, let's raise the level of the firewall first. Since they want to fight, we haven't been afraid!"

In the fierce battle between the two sides, another hour passed.

[Blady: Hey, that's weird, we've had a lot of resistance. 】

[Fennel: It seems that Signale is not necessarily a lone ranger, huh? 】

[Blady: Not only is he not a lone ranger, but he also looks quite strong. 】

[Fennel: Try again. 】

Yu Jingshu: "What's the matter, the other side hasn't given up yet?"

"Damn, did we recruit them to mess with them?"

"I don't know, who knows what's going on, a gun fell from the sky, it's so weird."

"Enable the syn-increased DDOS attack, try to counterattack."

after an hour.

[Blady: What a powerful DDOS attack!How could he have so many resources? 】

[Fennel: Wait, these attacks come from... the technical team? 】

[Blady: Damn, we were lied to by Signale, this is not his server, we were misled! 】

[Fennel: Take stock of the losses and evacuate immediately. 】

Yu Jingshu: "The other side has retreated."

"Hey... Boss, there don't seem to be many people on the other side, but it has caused more than 2 failure rates to our server. The aggressiveness is too strong. What's going on?"

Yu Jingshu pondered and said, "The only orders we received recently were to investigate Signale's identity as ordered by the superior. I heard that Signale is the resident master of flower fields. Maybe it's because we angered these hackers."

"Are they taking it out on Signale?"

"Maybe." Yu Jingshu said, "Order, stop the investigation of Signale first, especially don't attack the Huatian Forum, we will find a way to put pressure on the forum administrators through it. Otherwise, such an attack will cause The loss would be too great."

[Blady: It seems that there is a strong technical team behind Signale. 】

[Fennel: With his technical prowess, he may be one of the leaders in Huaguo's technical security circles. It seems we are taking the liberty.The matter of inviting him needs a long-term plan. 】

[Blady: You mean? 】

[Fennel: Notify the other side, and start preparing for the "competition" in advance. Signale may not be interested in our organization, but since he cracked the ransomware, he must be interested in technology-we use technology to lure him. 】

At 23:31, both sides suffered losses, and each withdrew their offensive tacitly.

Because this battle originated from Fennel's malicious tracking, so he didn't have the nerve to say anything;

On Yu Jingshu's side, it was equivalent to being beaten up in a daze, and he had no way of contacting the villain on the opposite side. He was afraid that he would be caught and beaten up again, so he simply refused to contact him with any news.

Both sides held the idea of ​​"Signale is really not easy to mess with" in their hearts, and retreated to their own positions with lingering fear.

At the same time, the library of University D was finally closing.

Shi Ye sat leisurely all night, as if unaware that he had become the core figure of a certain cyber war, he closed his notebook——

On this page of the notebook, a complete plumed snake has been drawn impressively.On its panic-stricken blue scales, there is a small golden butterfly.

This ransomware that uses the "Eternal Blue" vulnerability to infect has finally become Shiye's 424th perfect collection.

There is nothing more satisfying than that.

Shi Ye stood up, packed his things into the bag, and walked out with the bag on one shoulder.

However, at the door of the library, he accidentally saw Chu Yingzong.

Chu Ying sat on the seat closest to the door, lying face down on an open book, sleeping so unconsciously that she was almost drooling.

The library was very quiet in the middle of the night, and the movement of Shi Ye walking over couldn't be concealed, and it finally woke Chu Yingzong up.

"?!"

Chu Ying raised her head and looked around in a daze, wiped her mouth subconsciously, then looked at Shi Ye, and said in confusion, "Why did you leave..."

Shi Ye paused and said, "What are you doing?"

Chu Yingzong replied subconsciously: "You have to go to the counseling room at four o'clock in the afternoon every day. I'm afraid that you didn't follow the schedule today and you'll get sick again like that day, so why don't you just wait here..."

Halfway through the speech, he gradually came to his senses, blushed blushingly, and suddenly added: "It also saves my work from increasing! Besides, I was going to come to the library to study hard anyway!"

Time and night: "..."

During the silence, Shi Ye saw the book sliding down on the desk behind Chu Yingzong.

Seeing it is about to fall.

He suddenly stretched out his hand, circled around Chu Yingzong's waist, grabbed the book, and put it back on the table.

But this posture made them get very close at once, almost like a wall, Chu Ying's eyes widened: "What are you doing?!"

Before Shi Ye had time to speak, a beam of bright light suddenly hit them.

It turned out that the librarian was carrying a flashlight, illuminating the two of them like thieves.

Seeing them like this, the administrator said impatiently: "The library is going to be closed. If you want to fall in love, go out to the grove and talk for as long or as many times as you want!"

Chu Yingzong: "What, how many times..."

Time and night: "?"

The two were disheartened and kicked out by the librarian.

Chu Ying looked at herself, then at Shi Ye, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Pfft, haha, forget it, the senior will take you back to the dormitory."

Shi Ye didn't say anything, Chu Yingzong really put on the posture of a senior, and walked with him back to the freshman's dormitory.

However, before entering the door, Chu Yingzong suddenly said: "Student, it will be National Day in a few days, let's go see Professor Mu."

Shi Ye didn't answer.

Chu Yingzong stepped forward suddenly, and put one hand firmly on the wall beside him——

Shi Ye looked at his hands, then looked down at Chu Yingzong's feet.

Well, Chu Yingzong didn't stand on tiptoe this time, it seems that it's because she specially wore sneakers with inner height today.

Chu Yingzong showed a smug smile: "Don't try to run away, elementary school boy, obediently listen to the senior, otherwise the senior will block you here every night."

Time and night: "..."

Shi Ye was silent for a while, and then asked, "Why do you care about my affairs?"

Chu Yingzong said: "Isn't it because of that... Well, the surname Yu asked me to take care of you. This is also the responsibility of the senior! And the senior has also experienced these things. The senior knows that you are feeling uncomfortable now, and it is easy to escape... …would mistakenly think that if I didn’t see it myself, wouldn’t I be so sad to see my relatives get sick?”

Shi Ye didn't speak.

As Chu Ying talked, she got herself involved again, so she had to give up the topic, looked into Shi Ye's eyes seriously, and said, "That's it, I must go to see Professor Mu, I must go! The senior accompanied me." You go, or if you accidentally slip away, you may regret it for a long time, really long time."

"Chu Yingzong." Shi Ye said, "You are such a nosy senior."

"Shiye! I'll talk to you well!" Chu Yingzong said in an instant, "You are such a low-talking student!!"

"I promise you." Shi Ye said again.

Chu Yingzong was stunned for a moment, the anger in her body seemed to be extinguished suddenly, and she said a little at a loss: "Okay, okay, thank you?"

After a second of silence, he thought to himself: Why should I thank you? !ah?Chu Yingzong, are you out of your mind, have you been tormented into a shiver by the ghost and animal apprentices?

Chu Ying lowered her hand in frustration, but suddenly heard a very slight movement.

He looked up, but only for a moment, as if he saw a very faint smile on the corner of Shi Ye's mouth.

It is lighter than moonlight, but more beautiful than moonlight.

In a fleeting moment, he has moved forward.

Chu Ying froze for a moment, then shouted to his back: "Hey, did you laugh at me just now?"

Shi Ye didn't turn his head back: "Yes."

Chu Yingzong: "How dare you laugh at the senior! You wait for me, you wait for me tomorrow, I will not let you go!"
