Chapter 886 Action
William nodded slightly, glanced at Zhou Yu and asked, "The security department didn't even notice that there was an intrusion. Is there something wrong there too?"
"Not necessarily." Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Do you remember that the entire building, including the system we used, was upgraded before."
"Um."
Zhou Yudao: "At that time, some technical upgrades were made. As long as it is not a fixed port connection or illegal intrusion, I will notice it immediately. Moreover, the monitoring part is the internal network security department. It is normal for there to be oversights. Our current
There are several firewalls inside and outside the network and system, and even the people in the security department don’t fully understand what’s going on, and it’s understandable that the technology that can break into several firewalls has not been discovered by the people in the security department.”
William nodded: "I will arrange for someone to find out everything as soon as possible."
"Um."
When the elevator stopped, William left the elevator first to arrange work, while Zhou Yu returned to his office again and stayed for a while before leaving the headquarters building.
The CIA is now basically completely controlled by Zhou Yu, and more and more members of the Reflection Project have entered different departments and started working, which is enough to ensure that Zhou Yu can control most of the situations that occur within the CIA, even if some people want to deliberately
Even if you hide something, you won't be able to escape the surveillance of the Reflection Plan.
The four deputy directors are all people who can do things. They can manage the work at hand and maintain the normal operation of the organization. Now Zhou Yu gradually no longer takes everything into his hands as before, and also
You will have more free time to do what you want to do.
Fishing, reading, doing research with my wife and children, etc., are all more comfortable than sitting at a desk every day, processing various documents, and going to different places to sit in conference rooms to participate in various meetings.
Just one night passed, and when Zhou Yu came to the office again the next day, he had a report in his hand, about Vlad Cohen.
In front of a real interrogation expert, it is simply not something that normal people can do. When the pain reaches the extreme, many people may even be able to tell the story of still wetting the bed at the age of three, unless they have someone truly comparable.
Only a will like steel can persevere in that kind of torture, or it may be that you really don't know anything, and the last one is to have a will to die.
In the face of these situations, even excellent interrogation experts really don't have much to do. And now Vlad Cohen is in this situation. Torture is of little use, even if he uses veritaserum, it won't do anything.
Asked too many valuable things.
They were unable to find out who was instigating him, but the analysis department still found clues from Vlad Cohen's past experiences.
Vlad Cohen had two long-term field records, and it was because of his outstanding performance in these two long-term field assignments that he was transferred back to the headquarters and began to serve as a manager. The intelligence department analyzed the time of Vlad Cohen's rebellion for the first time.
When working in the field for a long time.
It is a relatively common situation for personnel in the intelligence department to rebel. This happens not only in the CIA, but also in the British intelligence department. Women with interests, hatred, and power cannot be promoted, and they are tired of the intelligence life and are afraid of death.
These may all be triggers.
The reason for Vlad Cohen's rebellion is not yet certain, and this is something that needs to be investigated later.
Zhou Yu didn't see much value in the report after looking at it. He could only confirm that Vlad Cohen was influenced by something during his long-term field service and then rebelled. It cannot be completely ruled out that Vlad Cohen was involved in the rebellion.
He joined the CIA with ulterior motives from the beginning.
Vlad Cohen didn't want to say anything, and the confusing information he revealed after using Veritaserum was of no value. In short, he didn't ask for what he needed, but asked a lot of irrelevant things.
One thing that is certain is that Vlad Cohen has been conducting anti-torture training for a long time. Those who were tortured have encountered a hard problem, and this guy has become a potentially useful clue. What?
It’s really not certain that it will be useful sometimes.
After reading the report, Zhou Yu did not continue to pay attention to this matter. After he was caught, he also arranged for William to do the following things. It was William's business whether he could investigate anything. Of course, even if Zhou Yu couldn't find anything from the investigation, it would be impossible.
After reprimanding William, Zhou Yu didn't have any suspicions in his mind, but he just couldn't produce any evidence.
After throwing the report aside, Zhou Yu approved a new document and notified the deputy director in charge of the technical department to go on a business trip to the UK.
Some time has passed, and the follow-up investigation of Vlad Cohen has also fallen into a rather troublesome situation. The review and investigation of the people around Vlad Cohen, including other colleagues in the field mission, have not found anything else yet.
Problems caused emergencies to turn into long-term tasks.
The second intelligence meeting was held, but the location was changed to the island nation of Tokyo. William was still present at the meeting this time.
This intelligence meeting was a vote after the review of the Nine Eyes system. The result of this vote still failed. Think about it and you will know how this system can be used so easily. There is no problem if we all monitor the outside together, but
On the other hand, if you ask others to monitor you, who will agree? If you don't pass, it's not what Zhou Yu expected.
It didn't take long for several explosions to occur in many places around the world. The most influential one was that the security director of one of the member states of the Nine Eyes Alliance was involved in the explosion and died. The explosions all occurred in Western countries. This shocked the whole world.
All intelligence agencies began to take action to find out what was going on, and the CIA also took action urgently.
Regarding this series of bombings, Zhou Yu also participated in several meetings, including those at the White House, the Pentagon, and internal CIA meetings. Although many organizations came forward to declare that they would be responsible for the explosions, at the same time, several different organizations were involved in Western forces.
There were so many bombing attacks launched at different locations. Zhou Yu was the first to not believe it.
But the result of the investigation is really like this. At least on the surface, there is really no problem. It is just a retaliatory action carried out by these armed organizations.
"Now our detectives have found the hiding places of multiple terrorists involved in the operation. At the same time, various investigations also indicate that this attack was a planned and organized attack. During our investigation, we also found that these organizations were involved in the operation.
They all received financial assistance before the operation, so we can guess that someone or an organization contacted and sponsored this operation..."
After William told the important things at the meeting, Zhou Yu lightly knocked on the table to get everyone's attention to him before he began to assign tasks: "The operations department must cooperate with the national defense department and other national intelligence departments to find the attacker first.
, the intelligence department will continue to conduct in-depth investigations to find out the financial providers behind the scenes, and all departments should cooperate more."
William said: "I have sent a team to South Africa. I believe that an attack team hidden in South Africa will be captured soon. By then, we may be able to obtain more confessions from them."
Brasseur also said: "We must also seize the time to grasp these newly emerging armed organizations, understand their membership, organizational structure, sources of funds, etc. and cooperate with the Ministry of National Defense to attack these organizations according to the situation. The British side
It has been announced that it will take force action against these armed groups involved in the attack, and the Pentagon is considering whether to intervene. After all, we are not among the countries that were attacked this time."
"Furthermore, the intelligence we have investigated is not accurate enough. It has only been 28 hours since the incident occurred. Many of these organizations are still very unfamiliar to us. If we want to take action, we must provide the Ministry of National Defense with more accurate information."
Intelligence data, we cannot let our people take risks. If the operation does not succeed at the first time, we are likely to suffer retaliation from these organizations."
This issue is the most important. If the operation fails, there is a high possibility of suffering retaliation. This kind of thing must not happen. No matter where these organizations attack, they can attack but they must not attack their homeland. Otherwise, they will bring
The impact will be very large.
Zhou Yu lightly knocked on the table and asked, "What about communication with other parties?"
Brasseur shook his head: "We have integrated the intelligence from all the agencies on our side, and the results are not much different. There is not much useful information. The Military Intelligence Bureau also sent people to actively operate on the front line, but it is estimated that it is still difficult to obtain valuable intelligence.
It will take a while.”
"How long will it take?"
Faced with Zhou Yu's question, the others looked at each other and didn't know how to answer. Only William thought for a moment and said, "At least forty-eight hours."
The door to the conference room was pushed open and a person walked in quickly and whispered a few words in Zhou Yu's ear.
Zhou Yu nodded and looked at the senior officials in the conference room: "Some news came from the UK just now, saying that they found something useful and hoped to hold a remote meeting."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Having information would be a good thing and would make their subsequent work easier.
"But I'm not going to participate."
Zhou Yu's next words made everyone present look shocked.
William reacted: "Nine Eyes System? Director, do you think this attack was self-directed and staged by the British!?"
Zhou Yu said: "Yes, in order to vote through the operation of the Nine Eyes System, this kind of thing is not impossible. Otherwise, why did we investigate useful information from them without investigating anything? Is it because they have started to use the Nine Eyes System themselves?
Is it true that our surveillance and intelligence network cannot match theirs? If this is the case, everyone present should think carefully about whether their butts can sit still."
"I will communicate with the Pentagon to ask them to suspend their actions, but we must act immediately. From now on, we will adjust the direction of our investigation and fully investigate Max Denbigh, the current head of the British security department."
Some hesitation: "Isn't this inappropriate?"
However, the deputy director of the technical department who had been very quiet spoke up: "The monitoring capabilities of the Nine Eyes system are very strong, allowing all participating member states to unconditionally retrieve any relevant monitoring records, including ours of course, regardless of
Whether it is traffic weather or any other monitoring means we can use, all can be unconditionally mobilized by the Nine Eyes system. In other words, everything about us will be exposed to the Nine Eyes system, and anyone with evil intentions can pass through.
This system knows everything about us, which in itself is a huge security threat to us."
"Originally, after the second meeting, we were discussing new plans and measures with the British side. After all, the nine-eye system can indeed play a certain role, but we didn't expect that this situation would suddenly appear. If the British side does so in the future,
If special technical means are used to conduct investigations using the Nine Eyes system with permission, then it is indeed possible to discover some information."
"And I support the director on this point. If the other party really uses the Nine Eyes system, it means that they have special technical means to bypass us to obtain our intelligence and use our intelligence system. This matter is necessary.
The investigation was clear.”
William pondered before speaking: "I will immediately arrange to launch an investigation into Max Denbigh, the head of the British security department."
Zhou Yu patted the table lightly: "Let's continue with this arrangement. All available manpower and power will be devoted to the investigation of this person. This matter needs to be kept strictly confidential."
As he spoke, Zhou Yu glanced at the people present and said: "You should be aware of the consequences of leaks, and I don't want any traitors to jump out among us."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Yu stood up and left the conference room, and the assistant secretary who came in also left behind him.
"If you reply, just say that we are currently conducting another important meeting. After the meeting is completed, we will communicate directly with them and prepare a car to go to the Pentagon."
"Yes, Director."
After arriving at the Pentagon, Zhou Yu talked to the Defense Minister for a long time, and after persuading him not to take any action for the time being, he left. In the process, he also implicitly told the Defense Minister that this matter was probably from the British.
By directing and acting on his own, the defense minister can also be prepared.
On the way back, Zhou Yu took a tablet and looked at the photos and personal information. These things were much more detailed than what the CIA was currently investigating.
If we arrest these people based on this information, it will probably take no time to arrest most of the people who participated in the attack.
"Is this from the British side?"
The assistant secretary on the co-pilot turned back and said: "Yes, Director, it was just sent here not long ago. The South African side suffered the most losses. In order to catch the person as soon as possible, we temporarily agreed to connect the Nine Eyes system to their surveillance network, and then other aspects
Seeing that the person could be found so quickly, they all agreed to the temporary access to the Nine Eyes system, and it seemed that these things were collected in not much time."
Chapter completed!
