Chapter 826

.

After Shi Lei dealt with the matter of framing the Washington Post, he fell asleep and no longer paid attention to the matters between the FBI in Lijian Province and the Washington Post. However, just because Shi Lei didn't pay attention didn't mean that Izur didn't pay attention.

As Shi Lei's most trusted assistant, Izur participated in almost all matters related to Shi Lei. As an advanced pseudo-artificial intelligence system, Izur's strength was beyond doubt. As for loyalty?

The advanced pseudo-artificial intelligence system Izur was, after all, a pseudo-artificial intelligence system. It didn't have "self-emotion and consciousness," nor did it have "selfishness and exhaustion," which belonged to the emotions of a truly intelligent creature.

Izur could completely provide services 810 days a year, 79 hours a day, without interruption. Before Shi Lei went to bed, he instructed Izur to pay close attention to all information on the Washington Post, as well as any network instructions issued by the FBI's Cybercrime Department.

Shi Lei had implanted monitoring programs into the Washington Post's official website, data server, and application server in the system's underlying code. These monitoring programs were simulated by Shi Lei into system programs. They only recorded the operation information within the Washington Post's various servers, including the operation instructions executed externally in case they were hacked.

Because they only recorded the operation instructions, these small programs located in the system's underlying code were quite difficult to discover. Even the FBI's security expert team wouldn't be able to discover the small programs left by Shi Lei unless they did a thorough system scan and analysis.

Izur used these small programs to monitor the Washington Post's network situation.

As for the FBI's situation, Shi Lei had successfully hacked into the FBI's internal system during the cyber war between Xia Xia and Lijian Province. He also left a system backdoor in the FBI's internal system to facilitate Shi Lei's next entry.

The system backdoor that Shi Lei left in the FBI's internal system was just a very simple backdoor. It didn't have any access to confidential systems, and it didn't have any access to copy or move files. It didn't even have access to some of the files. The only access to the back door was to enter the internal system of the FBI.

After going through the backdoor of the FBI's system and entering the internal system, no matter what he did, he still needed Shi Lei to crack it a second time!

Even though it was just a simple system backdoor, it was still very useful in Shi Lei's hands. Shi Lei entered the FBI's internal system through the back door of the FBI's system. In the cybercrime department's intelligence system, he set up a monitoring program similar to that of the Washington Post.

The only difference was that the FBI's internal monitoring program was more secretive. It required Izur to control it at all times and make corresponding adjustments.

According to the surveillance program left by Shi Lei, Izur grasped the situation of the Washington Post and the FBI's Cybercrime Department. The task that Shi Lei gave Izur was quite simple. He just wanted Izur to record the movements of the two targets.

After Shi Lei made the decision to frame the Washington Post, he guessed that the FBI would definitely be angered by the Washington Post's actions. They would then take special measures to eliminate the impact of the Washington Post's report.

This was not the first time that the FBI had done something like this. Shi Lei was quite clear about the FBI's methods. He also knew that within the FBI's Cybercrime Department was the one who did this.

…

The Cybercrime Department of the FBI's Cybercrime Department. Assistant Director Adler Cote was the successor of Bruce Campbell. Bruce Campbell was Uriel of the Angel Council. Due to the bad influence that Bruce Campbell had brought to the Cybercrime Department, Adler Cote's days in the Cybercrime Department were not very good.

Adler Cote repeatedly wanted to make contributions and establish his prestige in the Cybercrime Department. However, every time, Adler Cote failed to make contributions and was humiliated.

This time, Adler Cote received a hint from the FBI's Director, Simon Baker, to let him handle the Washington Post's matter well. In fact, long before he was promoted to Assistant Director of the Cybercrime Department, Adler Cote had already known about the FBI's Cybercrime Department. He used to be the main force and dealt with similar negative public opinion that was unfavorable to the FBI.

Adler Cote's plan was almost the same as Shi Lei's guess. The FBI invaded the Washington Post in an unofficial capacity to "fight evil with evil!"

The so-called "fight evil with evil" was not to use hacking methods to directly erase the relevant reports of the Washington Post. That method was very low-level. Not only would it not solve the problem, but it would also further increase the credibility of the matter.

Adler Cote's "fight evil with evil" plan was actually to use hacking methods to invade the Washington Post and continue to report more exaggerated and false news. The more exaggerated the news, the better. He wanted to create an atmosphere of the Washington Post's news being untrue. Thus, the Washington Post's previous report of the FBI's mistakes would also be questioned.

This method was more effective than directly erasing the relevant news reports. It was also gentler. The Washington Post could only silently suffer the ravages of the FBI.

Even if the Washington Post asked for help from the CIA, they would not receive a response. Intelligence agencies competed with each other and also helped each other. Since the Washington Post dared to mess with the FBI, the CIA, and the CIA, they were naturally worried that the Washington Post would suddenly mess with them.

Adler Cote ordered several of his trusted subordinates to invade the Washington Post through the secret channel of the FBI's Cybercrime Department.

The elite members of the FBI's Cybercrime Department formed a hacking team. How could a mere newspaper be a match for them? Adler Cote finally made a contribution this time. The elite members of the Cybercrime Department released a series of very unreliable news on the official website of the Washington Post.

This was the most unreliable piece of news. It was somewhat comical and absurd. This most unreliable news stated that Xia Xia had mastered a mysterious spell from ancient times. He could let the soldiers practice ancient spells. Thus, the soldiers could fly and burrow into the ground, turning into a terrifying army.

This kind of news should not have appeared on a semi-official newspaper like the Washington Post. It should have appeared on a media outlet like the Sun, which created more rumors than facts.

The Cybercrime Department of the FBI also released a lot of similar news on the official website of the Washington Post. As a high-end intelligence agency, the elite members of the Cybercrime Department of the FBI handled the Washington Post's official website and server very thoroughly. They handled it even better than real hackers.

They were anti-hacker experts. Naturally, they were proficient in both hacking and anti-hacking techniques. They directly mirrored the Washington Post's official website. They even made a backup copy of the link to the official website of the Washington Post.

No matter what the cybersecurity personnel of the Washington Post did, they would not be able to regain control of the official website in a short period of time. They could only watch the FBI's Cybercrime Department freely manipulate their official website.

Unless the cybersecurity personnel of the Washington Post were more skilled than the elites of the Cybercrime Department of the FBI, it was impossible for them to regain control of the official website.

Could the cybersecurity personnel of the Washington Post be more skilled than the FBI? If the cybersecurity personnel of the Washington Post had such skills, how could the official website be hacked by Shi Lei and the elites of the FBI?

The elites of the Cybercrime Department of the FBI wantonly released unbelievable news on the official website of the Washington Post. They did not care about the authenticity of the news at all.

What they needed was fake news!

It was not that the Washington Post did not have any means of retaliation. They were indeed no match for the FBI on the Internet. However, in the real world, they had powerful means of retaliation. In the real world, as long as the Washington Post announced that their official website had been hacked in the new issue of the newspaper, they would naturally be able to uncover the hacking of the FBI's Cybercrime Department.

However, in this way, the FBI's goal would also be achieved! If the Washington Post's official website had been hacked, then the previous news about the FBI's scandal would be equally unreliable. Naturally, it would also be fake!

Therefore, no matter how the Washington Post dealt with the elites of the Cybercrime Department of the FBI, the FBI would always be in an advantageous position.

However, regardless of whether it was the FBI or the Washington Post, the two parties were happily fighting each other. They would never have thought that the culprit behind all this was Shi Lei!

Izur was quietly collecting evidence of the FBI's hacking of the Washington Post. He was preparing to provide strong support for Shi Lei's next plan.

Shi Lei's ultimate goal was to attack the Congress of Lijian Province. He wanted to prevent the Congress of Lijian Province from passing a bill against AMD and Dream Entertainment. As for the way to stop the Congress, with Shi Lei's means, in order to influence reality from the Internet, there was only one way. That was to start with public opinion and create a huge amount of pressure on the Congress of Lijian so that they would have no time to care about AMD and Dream Entertainment.

In order to achieve public opinion pressure, he had to have solid evidence to sway the Congress of Lijian Province. Only then could he create strong public opinion pressure in Lijian Province and force the Congress to shift their attention.

The best starting point, or rather the fuse, was the scandal of the FBI hacking the Washington Post!
