Chapter 2348: Mysterious shadow

"Hey, where are you going, I'm talking about you!" Sergey couldn't help but said, but Lin Rui held it down and made a stern look at him. The Russian just stopped angrily.
After a few cars brought them to their destination, the driver stopped the car in silence, then walked quickly to help them open the door, without saying a word.
After Lin Rui and the other team members got out of the car, several white cars galloped away.
Sergey wondered, "What's wrong? Who are these people, and how did they leave us behind."
"Don't talk." Lin Rui whispered. Only then did he discover that they were in the Edulif Alley near the Grand Place in the city, and the statue of the Manneken Pis, known as the first citizen of Brussels, could be vaguely seen in the distance. This is a tourist attraction. Many people come to Brussels to see the world-famous statue of a child. The chubby boy sculpture is on a high place, urinating recklessly toward the fountain.
There are many people coming and going around, why would employers ask to meet here? Lin Rui's heart was full of doubts. At this moment, a little boy came over and pulled his clothes.
"Huh?" Lin Rui lowered his head and looked at the little boy.
The little boy nibbled on the ice cream, pointed at Lin Rui, and then walked away. Lin Rui followed the direction of his fingers and looked at it. A small cafe was opposite. Not many people can see through the glass window, but there is a woman in black sitting in the corner.
"She's over there, come with me!" Lin Rui turned and walked towards there quickly. The other team members followed him, but kept a certain distance from him and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
Lin Rui walked into the cafe and sat down opposite the woman. The woman lowered her head and seemed to be playing with her mobile phone, and did not look up at him. Lin Rui said calmly, "Are you an employer?"
"Yes." The woman still didn't look up, but Lin Rui could hear her voice, which was the woman on the phone he heard.
"Sorry, did we meet somewhere?" Lin Rui hesitated.
"It's like a very old-school excuse to strike up a conversation, isn't it? But, we did meet." The woman raised her head. Lin Rui could see her face clearly. This was a woman in her twenties or thirties, but Lin Rui seemed a little bit unable to remember where she had been seen.
Seeing Lin Rui's puzzled eyes, the woman smiled, "It doesn't matter if I can't remember it. I can remind you that I am in Amsterdam, the Netherlands."
Lin Rui's expression changed instantly, he looked at the woman and said, "Is it you? The shadow broker?"
"It's an honor, you don't have any impression of me." The woman smiled.
"Your employer?" Lin Rui frowned. "How did you and the people at NATO headquarters get together?"
"Of course it's me. But I didn't come with the people at NATO headquarters. You should know that the Americans finally believed that the shadow broker is dead. How could I get involved with NATO headquarters, I just invaded them The system issued a false order for them to pick you up and your partner in the past. Because we believe that their vehicles can not be monitored." The shadow economic man slowly said.
"What the is going on?" Lin Rui frowned.
"My current situation is very bad. I originally wanted to change my status. But some people believe that the shadow broker is not dead and are still investigating. That's why I need protection, so I think of you. According to my investigation, you are A good team. It's worth my money to hire you." The shadow economy man slowly said.
"Who is going to deal with you?" Lin Rui frowned.
"It's a Russian hacker team. They value my abilities and are trying to find me. I have every reason to believe that after they find me, they will not have the patience to convince me to serve them. They will only ask more directly. "The shadow broker whispered.
"Russian hacker team? It seems that you really have a reputation." Lin Rui sneered.
"No way, I was too famous some time ago. It's easy to be famous in our business. Especially I challenged the intelligence agency of a superpower." The shadow broker smiled, but she said seriously, "But I can't I was arrested, because once I was arrested, you would also be in trouble. After all, you saved my life last time. I don’t want to involve you."
"It seems that you didn't think so, did you?" Lin Rui said coldly, "If you hire us to protect you, doesn't it involve us?"
"Yes, because now I don't know how to protect myself." The Shadow Broker whispered, "It's all thanks to you. Since you took back those supercomputer viruses from me, you have completely lost me. The qualifications to negotiate terms with the US intelligence agencies. Now if I fall into their hands, I will sit in the prison. And those Russians have taken a fancy to this and want me to give them my life. That’s why I thought of hiring. You come to help me because there is no one I can believe except you."
"I'm afraid it may not be. Just now you could have the people from NATO headquarters come out to pick us up." Lin Rui frowned, "So it's hard for me to believe you."
"Just now I was helpless. I can't show up in public, but I know you must really want to see me as soon as possible. And I can't risk my friends to pick you up. It's easy to be targeted, but NATO headquarters It’s another story again. So I hacked into their internal system and sent a fake order to some people in the headquarters to pick you up and send you here. That’s why I asked you not to talk all the time. , So as not to miss it." The shadow broker shook his head. "Such a thing is extremely risky and can only be done occasionally."
Lin Rui was stunned, looked at the shadow agent, and made sure she was not joking, before he said, "What are those Russians who can make you so afraid?"
"In fact, they are not all Russians, but an international hacker organization established in Russia. It seems to be called the seventh group, they are legendary in the hacker world." The shadow broker said.
"It's a pity that we don't have much research on this. It seems that we can't help you either." Lin Rui just wanted to say that, and suddenly swallowed what he had said. "What are you talking about? The Russian hacker group is called the seventh group?"
"Yes. They are not like me. They have always been low-key, but their strength is quite strong. Now they want to attract me to join the group, otherwise they may reveal my information and expose me to the Americans. You know I have completely provokes me. The US National Security Agency. They will keep me in prison for a lifetime." The shadow economic man sighed, "So I need protection."
