On Weibo.
The netizens were all stunned.

6666…


Where did Master Lin find this? It looks legit.


Dmn, this is really good news. His bank account info and his personal info are all online. But something isn’t right. This looks like something taken from the bank database.


Wait a minute, could Master Lin be…


Could he have hacked the bank and the police database?


Not possible. How is that possible? Master Lin doesn’t know how to use computers.


Then how do you explain that? How do you explain what he just posted?


You guys can stop fighting. This guy is from Shanghai and Master Lin probably has his ways of getting the information.


Yes.

Everyone on Weibo started speculating as to what had happened and all of them were puzzled beyond belief. They had never thought that Master Lin would be able to find the information regarding the scammer.
However, they were suspicious and they wondered if the information was legitimate.
But because it was posted by Master Lin, they believed that the information was real.
In a certain rental flat.
A few computer screens were lit up and there were a few mobile phones scattered around the table.
A few scrawny teenagers were sitting around. They only ever ate cup noodles and did their own business in the dingy flat.

Hello, Madam Yang. We are from the Happy Everyday Program Group. Congratulations on being selected as our lucky viewer. You have won sixty thousand dollars in a lucky draw. All you have to do now is to remit five thousand dollars to xx bank account to be able to claim your prize…
The young man’s voice was refined, sounding convincing and professional. It was a shame that the person on the other side of the phone hung up immediately before he could complete his statement.

Dmn it, that’s really disrespectful,
the teenager said, cursing at his phone, thereafter picking another number to call.
His computer had a lot of data, which they had gotten from the hospital as well as paying for it through certain platforms.
Although most people didn’t believe them, there would always be a few people who would believe them.
Without thinking too much, he continued to pick his target.

Yang Li, a university student, from a small village, poor family. Not bad, this is a good pick.

He called the number.

I’m looking for a student whose name is Yang Li?


Speaking.


We are from the Education Department. The bursary which you have applied for has already been processed and all you need to do is to follow our instructions. Please go to the nearest ATM and use your China Construction Bank card to open the bursary page and we will be able to help you with the process.


Really?
an excited voice replied across the phone.


Yes, that is correct.


I’ll go to the bank now. Just wait for me.


Alright, we’ll call you in half an hour. Goodbye.

After hanging up, the teenager laughed, saving her number before turning to the female colleague next to him.

Call this one later.


Got it,
the female colleague replied.
This was one of their tactics. She would call the university student and ask the university student to hurry to the bank, otherwise, it would be too late. If the student didn’t make it in time, the next processing timing would be in a month’s time. Under these circumstances, the student wouldn’t think too much. She would hurry to the bank and would follow their instructions.

Where is Brother Mao?
the teenager asked suspiciously.
The female colleague shook her head.
Brother Mao earned quite a huge sum of money a while back and is now enjoying himself. He won’t be back for quite some time.


When will I be like Brother Mao?
the teenager said, his voice in awe.

Slowly, you still have much to learn from Brother Mao,
the female colleague replied.
Inside the house.
Mao Fang was playing computer games. His mood had been quite good these past few days after earning a huge sum of money. But he couldn’t really call it earning since he technically scammed it from another person. After getting bored of playing computer games, he went through the internet to see if there were any new happenings.
Weibo.
Suddenly, his facial expression changed. Why on earth was his personal information on Weibo?
After looking at it in greater detail, he jumped up in shock and fear.

How is this possible? How did I get found out?
Mao Fang couldn’t believe it. He had been caught red handed.
At this moment, Mao Fang was in a daze as he sat down, not knowing what to do. At that moment, he was speechless.
Could he make a run for it?
But where to?
In this society, it was almost impossible to disappear without a trace.
The seventy-year-old lady was dead. He thought of that period where he went out to scam old people. He had seen the news, but he didn’t really pay any attention to it.
The news was talking about himself.
Mao Fang’s throat tightened and his vision became blurry as panic set in.
Knock knock!
Just at this moment, someone was waiting outside his door.
After hearing the knocking sound, Mao Fang jumped up in shock.
He wanted to shout and ask the other party not to open the door, but he didn’t know who was on the other side of the door.
Suddenly, a loud, commanding voice boomed from across the door.

Get down, hands behind your back. Don’t move!

Bang!
The door was pushed open by force and Liu Xiao Tian rushed into the room. He gave a grin as he saw Mao Fang in the room.
We’ve found the person we came for.

Mao Fang looked at the police officers, his eyes wide open in panic. He couldn’t figure out how on earth his identity got leaked on the internet.
…
Cloud Street.

You look like you’re done. So what are you doing now?
Zhao Zhong Yang analyzed what Brother Lin was doing.

Since I’ve already started and can’t stop, I might as well continue. This world has too many criminals and I must do all I can to weed them out,
Lin Fan replied.

Ah?
Zhao Zhong Yang looked at Brother Lin, puzzled beyond belief.
This was just plain provocation.
Shanyuan Bank.
The Internet specialists were working on the problem.

There isn’t a single missing file on the system. Everything is normal.


This hacker is really something else. Every single defense in the system was completely useless against him. This third generation system didn’t even manage to stop him. However, he’s too careless and didn’t clean up after himself. We should be able to find him in a matter of time.


No, this hacker didn’t conceal himself intentionally and instead, exposed himself. This is the same tactic used by the generals of old. He did everything in the open to let everyone know that it was him who did it.
All the Internet professionals were stunned.

How could that be? There isn’t a hacker on this earth who is that stupid.


Despicable. He’s just provoking us by leaving his trail. As if he’s trying to tell us that this was his doing and asking us to look for him.


Everyone, let’s look for this person. Once we are able to contact him, ask him not to act alone. This hacker is definitely not acting alone with this kind of skill. Now I’m just afraid they are a terrorist hacking group.


Yeah. This is just too despicable. With this kind of ability, he used it for evil instead of good. If the bank suffers anything because of him, it would escalate to something big.

Roll out!

…
Not long after.

I’ve found his ID. He is from Shanghai.


We found the same thing.


By cross-referencing his ID, we can tell that the person is from one of the shops on Cloud Street.


What? How can this be? This hacker is just too despicable, bringing in the innocent into this. The trail that he left points to innocent people! This is unforgivable. Let’s look again.


Yes.


Leader, something isn’t right. All the trails that he left point to Cloud Street. There isn’t any other trail.


I just know that any hacker with this kind of capability would never leave his trail. But this brat has underestimated us. Some of you work on protecting the bank system and some of you continue finding the hacker with me.


Yes…
