Chapter 1089 - The Night of Stealing
Chapter 1089: The Night of Stealing
That dumb*ss, Elder You, was supercilious and arrogant, but he could not even do one thing. In the end, not only did he waste a lot of sponsorship funds, but he also screwed up the matter.
Every day, he proclaimed that he had to master some evil voodoo, and he would be invincible after success. Didn’t he run away dejectedly in the end?
The current military adviser was different. Although his tricks were somewhat wretched, the winners rule over losers. Who cares how he achieved the goal? Only results matter the most.
Therefore, the boss did not want to kill Yang Ming in a just and honorable way. As long as he could kill Yang Ming, he wouldn’t care much.
“If this matter is successful, you are a great hero.” The boss said to the young man, “I will let you get back everything you want.”
“Are you for real?” The young man looked at the boss incredulously. His original purpose was to kill Yang Ming, so he relied on the boss’ support, but he did not expect to get back the things he wanted after the event.
“Of course, Yang Ming’s business is really nothing in my eyes… What I want is…” The boss paused after saying. He did not continue to speak, but anyone would know that the things he wanted must be something more important than money.
However, the boss did not say any more; the young man did not ask either. He did not want to know what kind of hatred the boss had with Yang Ming. This had nothing to do with him.
…………
The black-shirted man quietly sneaked into the exhibition hall. He did not enter from the gate of the exhibition center, but instead, he walked to the edge of the wall closest to the exhibition area. He was going to climb over the wall.
The black-shirted man did not rush to get started. Instead, he took out a camera-radar detecting device from his backpack and began scanning the positions of the various probes in the yard of the exhibition center.
Most cameras used wireless signal transmission. After all, wires were not convenient for the layout and installation of the cameras. Maintenance and replacement were also big problems.
Before the exhibition center held the jewelry exhibition, there were large-scale exhibition events such as a clothing exhibition and a car show. Therefore, it did not require very strict security measures. There were no cameras installed in the yard of the exhibition center, only at the front entrance. A small number of cameras were installed in the parking lot.
After Ming Yang Security Company was responsible for the security of the jewelry exhibition, a large number of wireless cameras were installed in the yard as monitoring equipment. Although wireless was more convenient, there was still a gap compared to a wired camera.
When black-shirted man detected the closest camera to him that he could photograph the camera orientation, he took out another device and connected it to a small laptop.
Yang Ming frowned. He didn’t expect this black-shirted man to be so professional. What he was doing now should be releasing the interference signal to affect the normal operation of the camera.
Sure enough, the black-shirted man first used the instrument to tune the signal frequency range of the wireless camera. After locking in the range, he began to use the computer to capture the data packets exchanged between the camera and the server, and analyzed the passcode.
Soon, a series of binary numbers appeared on the black-shirted man’s computer. The black-shirted man opened another software, copied and pasted it in the software’s password bar, and clicked the “toggle” button. At this point, the camera was completely hijacked. The picture transmitted from the camera to the host became a picture on the black-shirted man’s computer.
The picture may be pre-recorded, and it was also a video from the shooting position recorded by the camera at night. As a result, it was difficult for people in the monitoring room to discover the video from the camera was replaced by another video.
After the replacement, the black-shirted man began to search for cameras near the exhibition area inside the exhibition hall until he found the location and frequency band of the cameras. Then, he performed the previous decryption operation and hijacked each camera one by one. He then replaced the camera’s video with the video footage from his laptop.
After doing all this, the black man carefully placed the notebook on the ground and covered it with black canvas from the backpack. Although there were few people in the vicinity, who could guarantee that no one will pass by? In case others considered it as good stuff and stole it, the black-shirted man’s operation would be screwed.
After covering his equipment, the black-shirted man looked around again until he couldn’t see anything unusual, then he slowly climbed up the wall.
The black-shirted man was very skilled, like a gecko. He jumped down from the wall of the exhibition center without any sound. After landing, the black-shirted man quickly crouched on the ground and concealed his body in the piles of dry grasses and branches, thus avoiding the line of sight from the patrolling security.
Judging from the figure of a black-shirted man, he was obviously a professional thief. However, looking at the past activities from the person behind-the-scenes, the man he sent was obviously not an amateur.
However, Yang Ming was still not sure whether the death warrior he met at Wang Xiaoyan’s home and the men this time were controlled by the same person behind-the-scenes.
Most of the patrols on the periphery were security guards from the Ming Yang Security Company. They were certainly enough to deal with the general thieves, but obviously not enough to deal with these professionals.
Judging from the black-shirted man’s dexterity, Yang Ming thought he had almost equal skills as him. After the black-shirted man waited for a pair of patrolling security guards to walk past, he began to move his body quickly and crawled in the direction of the exhibition hall.
The exhibition center covered a large area. Even if Yang Ming’s security company had many people, it was impossible to set a sentry post for every short distance. Also, if he had ten times more people he had now, it still would not be enough.
The cameras had been hacked by the black-shirted man, so he did not need to bother about these. He just needed to avoid the patrols. After the first wave of patrolling guards walked away, the black-shirted man quickly approached the exhibition hall and stopped in front of a window on the side of the exhibition area.
The black-shirted man took out something similar to a spray bottle from his backpack, but the shape was very unusual. Even Yang Ming had never seen it. It must be a professional stealing tool.
He saw the black-shirted man spray a few times on the protective window with the spray bottle. After a while, the iron bar of the protective window was broken with a slight bend.
Yang Ming realized at this time that the spray bottle probably contained a highly corrosive liquid such as a concentrated sulfuric acid solution, which could quickly dissolve the steel bars of the protective window. Obviously, its corrosiveness was not ordinary.
He didn’t know what the material of the spray bottle was made of. It was so strong that it could contain highly corrosive liquid safely.
However, some folk secret tools were really difficult to explain clearly. Perhaps it was like every item has its weakness. Just like his flying needle would dissolve after touching the blood, the liquid in the spray bottle probably only reacted to steel. Although it couldn’t be explained from the chemistry point of view, there were still too many phenomena in the world that couldn’t be explained by science.
Yang Ming did not go deep into this issue, but he looked carefully at the black-shirted man’s actions.
After removing all the protective iron bars, the black-shirted man took out a glass knife-like thing from his backpack. Just as the black-shirted man just wanted to touch the glass of the exhibition hall with the glass knife, he stopped abruptly.
A touch screen-like device was attached to the glass of the exhibition hall. It would be activated after the hall was closed. As long as an external force made contact with it, the alarm would be triggered.
Obviously, the black-shirted man also found the strangeness on the glass. The black-shirted man put the glass knife aside and began looking for the wires of the touch screen at the edge of the glass.
This kind of touch screen was a product from a few years ago, and the technical content was not high. Because the exhibition center had been built for quite some time, these things had not been renewed yet.
Although Yang Ming saw the shortcomings of this aspect before, it couldn’t be helped. He only used the exhibition hall ad-hoc for seven days. It was impossible to renovate the exhibition hall completely.
The owner of the exhibition hall would not pay for the renovation fees. Even if Yang Ming used his money, he could not make it in time. Therefore, he could only use it as is. Everything depended on Yang Ming’s special abilities to provide a full range of monitoring.
Yang Ming massaged his aching temples. It seemed that this black-shirted man was not simple. If Yang Ming did not see this kind of touch-screen glass in the information provided by Fang Tian, Yang Ming would not have known about it.
The previous generation alarm that was installed on the glass was triggered by the vibration generated when the glass was broken, but the alarm was obviously ineffective against a glass cutter.
The second generation was this touch screen; the sensitivity of this kind of alarm system was high, but it was easy to crack. Moreover, there was a drawback. The sensitivity was too high! As soon as someone touched the touchpad on the glass with a little bit of force, the alarm would be triggered.
With that, whenever it was windy or rainy, there might be false alarms. Therefore, such an alarm device was generally activated only when there was a situation; it would usually be turned off.
What was commonly used now was the kind of glass with fine wires in the middle. Although the cost of this glass was high, it was very practical and difficult to crack.
As long as the wires in the glass broke, an alarm would be triggered, which meant that whether the glass was broken or cut by a glass knife, an alarm would be triggered.
It was hard to crack, but it was not impossible to crack. Yang Ming found a similar solution on the CD given by Fang Tian. Since Yang Ming knew about this, he believed this black-shirted man should also know it.
So, it was not difficult for him to find the touchpad on the glass. Soon, the black-shirted man found the wires of the touchpad from the edge of the window. He took out insulating pliers from his backpack and carefully cut the wires on the touchpad.
At this point, the alarm system on the glass window became useless decoration for the black-shirted man. Because the touch screen was the most common resistive touch screen, there was no consequence after the wire was cut.
With strength, the black-shirted man tore off the touch screen, revealing the glass behind. The black-shirted man began cutting the glass with the specially made glass knife…
This is plexiglass. I don’t know what kind of glass knife the black-shirted man uses. It can actually cut the plexiglass… Something is not right. Then, Yang Ming could see what the thing in black-shirted man’s hand was!
That is a small laser cutter! Not a glass knife! The black man first sucked the glass with a suction cup, then carefully cut a small piece of glass with the laser cutter.
The piece of glass was only as thick as a finger. A person couldn’t enter with that. What was he trying to do?
Just as Yang Ming wondered why he cut such a small piece of glass, the black-shirted man started to act. He took out a straight tube object from the backpack, and the back was connected to the backpack. Yang Ming used his x-ray vision to look at the situation in the backpack. The end of the tube was connected to an air pump-like object.
The black-shirted man put the tube into the previously cut glass hole and opened the valve at the end of the tube.
Mandala essence [1]! Yang Ming finally understood what the black-shirted man wanted to do! Unexpectedly, he actually used such a despicable means. This move was despised in the underworld. However, Yang Ming did not think that there was a problem.
This method was often used when the assassins executed a mission. Yang Ming did not know whether this method was fine to use in the world of thievery. At least, Yang Ming did not think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he felt that the black-shirted man was doing it in an orderly manner.
If he did not serve the wrong master, this guy was considered a skillful person. Yang Ming wanted to be acquainted.
Probably, the Mandala essence was a colorless and odorless special product, so the security guards inside the hall would be knocked out by the black-shirted man unknowingly.
Yang Ming shook his head helplessly. The black-shirted man’s calmness and tactics in his actions were not under him. Yang Ming even had an illusion that if he executed this mission himself, he would follow the same route as the black-shirted man.
It was just that Yang Ming was trained by Fang Tian and trained in Europe, so it was not surprising to have such skills. As for this black-shirted man, Yang Ming was getting more curious. He was not sure which organization this guy belonged to. If Yang Ming could be acquainted and subdue him, then it would be a big boost for his future.
It was no wonder that people in the hall would be knocked out by the black-shirted man so easily and unknowingly. High-technology, agile moves, plus a Mandala essence – it was not easy to not succeed.
Li Qiang and others were good at fighting and assassination, but they were not good at these kinds of tricks. Yang Ming thought that if he did it himself, it would be the same case, so it was reasonable for Li Qiang not to be aware of it.
After all the people in the hall fell to the ground, the black-shirted man nodded in satisfaction. He put away the tube of the Mandala essence and quickly put a piece of medicine in his mouth. It should be the antidote.
The black-shirted man repeated the action again, but this time he cut off a large piece of glass. The glass was carefully sucked down with a suction cup and thrown aside. The black-shirted man quickly entered the exhibition area in the exhibition hall.
It was only a matter of time for the black-shirted to succeed. Yang Ming was already certain that the opponent he faced was too strong. Even if Li Qiang and others did not protect the jewelry well, Yang Ming would not blame them.
After the black-shirted man entered the exhibition area, he sent a text message to the driver waiting in the Mercedes-Benz van according to the prior agreement. Of course, although it was only a small movement, it could not escape Yang Ming’s eyes.
Yang Ming took a look at the intersection near the exhibition hall, and the place where the Mercedes-Benz van parked. Sure enough, the driver took a look at the phone and the content on the screen was, “Everything follows the plan.”
This was probably pre-programmed because Yang Ming did not see any text on the black-shirted man’s phone.
After the driver received the text message, he started the car and headed for the exhibition center. The driving speed was not so bad. Obviously, it looked like a normal passing vehicle.
On the other side, the black-shirted man had begun to use the laser cutter to cut the showcase. Although the glass of the showcase adopted the most popular embedded wire type anti-theft system, because the showcase was exposed in the hall, the edge of the showcase must have wires to connect the power supply and alarm device. It would be fine as long as the power supply and alarm device were cut before cutting the glass.
The black-shirted man cut each showcase very skillfully. After the cut was completed, he put the corresponding piece of jewelry into the bag.
When the black Mercedes-Benz van was approaching, Yang Ming knew that he should also make a move. He shot out a glass shard lightly, and then the tire of the Mercedes-Benz vehicle was flattened.
The driver obviously felt that the vehicle was not right. However, he did not hear any abnormal noise, and no pedestrians appeared on the road. Since the driver was in a hurry to pick up the black-shirted man, the driver cursed anxiously, and he jumped out of the van.
“Motherf*cker, how can there be a problem at this time?!” The driver got off and circled the Mercedes-Benz van. He found that the right front tire was punctured by a glass shard.
The driver couldn’t be helped. He had to quickly get the spare tire and lifting jack from the van and change the tire swiftly as he wiped off the sweat on his head.
Of course, he never expected that after he screwed the last screw, a flying needle pierced his neck. Then the driver slowly fell down, motionless…
“Catch him and bring him back into the van, and wait for me.” Yang Ming commanded Lu Xinyang.
Lu Xinyang’s identity was a military adviser, but he usually trained with Li Qiang at a lower intensity, so it was not a problem to carry a person back to the van.
Yang Ming took off the driver’s clothes and then put them on his body. After Lu Xinyang took the driver away, Yang Ming got in the car and headed for the exhibition center.
