Chapter 1095: Decrypt the Phone
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Mr. Xie, please pay attention to your words.” Manager Zhang listened to the conversation between Xie Wenjin and Shen Yuxi. He also understood the relationship between them. This Xie Wenjin was Shen Yuxi’s suitor, but he could not get her. Now he found that Shen Yuxi was with another person, so he came to question her!
However, is Shen Yuxi’s backer someone you can compare to? Manager Zhang did not look down on Xie Wenjin. He also heard about the events that happened in the Nightless Club. Yang Ming had blocked the news about the incident where he stole the gun and fought the gangsters, but several people involved still accidentally exposed the story.
Although it was not very detailed, the more inconspicuous things were, the more likely they were imagined by people without restrictions, so Yang Ming became an invulnerable god…
Ever since then, Manager Zhang thought, For such a dumb*ss like you, Yang Ming can defeat you in one punch. You even came to pursue Brother Yang’s girlfriend? Are you courting death?
“What are you?!” Xie Wenjin was a little agitated. He did not take care of his own words; he forgot that he was in the Nightless Club.
When Manager Zhang listened to Xie Wenjin’s words, his face suddenly sank. Initially, he advised him kindly. He did not expect this person to be ignorant, so he could not be blamed for being rude.
Qi Zhide, who was by Xie Wenjin, was busy pulling his clothes. “Third Brother, don’t talk nonsense…”
“Don’t disturb me!” Xie Wenjin also started to use a little bit of blunt force. He said, not the least concerned, “You don’t even let me talk?”
“We don’t welcome you here. Now you leave immediately, or I will find someone to ask you to go out,” said Manager Zhang faintly.
“Find someone? Who will you find?!” Xie Wenjin pushed Manager Zhang and said disdainfully, “Let’s make this clear today. Shen Yuxi, who are you following right now? I will look for him!”
“Security!” Manager Zhang waved his hand impatiently, pointing to Xie Wenjin, “Chase him out!”
“Cousin!” Seeing two burly security guards coming to this side, Xie Wenjin was a little scared. He quickly yelled at Liu Zhaojun next to him, “Cousin, look…”
Liu Zhaojun was originally a person who preyed on the weak and feared the strong. Just now, at the university, he did not know Yang Ming’s true strength, but he did not dare to do anything, let alone in this famous Nightless Club! Did he dare to stir up trouble at the Nightless Club? Wasn’t that the same as courting death?
“This…” Liu Zhaojun did not dare to cause trouble. The two security guards had already come over. They just merely pushed, and Liu Zhaojun almost fell down.
The security guards in the Nightless Club were not ordinary security guards, but they were specially trained. They were naturally much more powerful than Liu Zhaojun. Liu Zhaojun’s Kung Fu was just to intimidate others, stylish but not practical. It looked good, but it did not have much power.
However, fortunately, the Nightless Club was more civilized in terms of management. Instead of hitting people in the lobby, they first pushed Xie Wenjin, Qi Zhide, and Liu Zhaojun out of the hall, and then they each got a flying kick.
After Xie Wenjin fell to the ground, face down, he also sobered up a lot. Looking at the glorious Nightless Club, he felt a little fear. “Sorry, I brought trouble to you all!”
“Little San, let me say this. Aren’t you a little too impulsive?” Liu Zhaojun acted like he knew it very well and said, “What is this Nightless Club? Even if I am powerful, I can’t beat so many security guards, right? What’s more, these people have weapons, maybe even guns. Even if we are the martial arts supreme, we can’t fight with them! So, just now, I also resisted the impulse in my heart, and I didn’t dare to fight back. Otherwise, if I fought back, our troubles will be big. It is not as simple as just being thrown out! If we break an arm or leg, it will probably still be a small matter!”
“Yeah, Brother Jun is right,” Qi Zhide also nodded and agreed. “Third Brother, you are just too impulsive. How can you be arrogant in this place?! You see, Manager Zhang’s attitude toward us was not bad at first. Then, when you scolded him, his attitude changed completely! So, even if you have a personal grievance with Shen Yuxi, you can’t solve it here!”
“You are right. Today, I was too impulsive!” Xie Wenjin said, “Let’s go back first. Otherwise, someone will trouble us again.”
“That wouldn’t be.” Liu Zhaojun was optimistic instead. “If the Nightless Club wants to trouble you, it does not need to do it covertly. Just now, they had beaten you up, so they would not release you and beat you up again. They do not have to do that.”
The three returned to the car. Although Xie Wenjin had cleared his mind, he still felt a little unwilling. He had chased Shen Yuxi for a long time, but he still could not get her. However, this was nothing. What irritated him the most was that it was fine if Shen Yuxi did not follow him. This meant that she had her ambition, and she did not want to be a mistress. But then, she went to find someone else. This was what Xie Wenjin could not tolerate!
I am a college student; I have money at home; I am very handsome. Why does Shen Yuxi not like me?
“Cousin, this Shen Yuxi is too irritating, right?” said Xie Wenjin with hatred.
Liu Zhaojun already had a girlfriend. He just came here to have fun on this occasion. It was impossible to really have feelings for the women in these places. Although he also marveled at Shen Yuxi’s extraordinary appearance, and his own girlfriend was not very beautiful, her family had money!
In this day and age, how useful could beauty be? They could not be used as money for the family. For Liu Zhaojun, who was not very rich at home, finding a rich girlfriend was more useful than a beautiful girlfriend.
How could he compare with Xie Wenjin, such a rich young master? Previously, when Xie Wenjin asked Liu Zhaojun to help him, Liu Zhaojun also understood that it was just casual talk. Looking at the Xie Wenjin’s attitude now, he could be certain that Xie Wenjin’s feelings for Shen Yuxi were not just as simple as possession.
Liu Zhaojun would naturally not compete with Xie Wenjin for women, and he would not dare to compete. First, if they really competed with each other, Xie Wenjin’s family was much stronger than Liu Zhaojun. If he ventured into society and joined the workforce in the future, he definitely needed to draw support from Xie Wenjin’s family. Second, his girlfriend’s family was also very rich. Her family had a very large clothing processing factory on the outskirts of the city. Liu Zhaojun was afraid that his girlfriend would find out and argue with Liu Zhaojun, so how would he dare mess around?
“Little San, if you really want to get this Shen Yuxi, in fact, there is a way. However, you can’t make a fuss at the Nightless Club.” Liu Zhaojun was not good at fighting, but the sly tricks up his sleeves were top notch.
” En ? What do you mean? Cousin, do you have a good plan?” When Xie Wenjin listened to Liu Zhaojun’s words, his eyes lit up suddenly and quickly asked.
“This is not really a good plan, but…” Liu Zhaojun smiled…
……
Yang Ming felt bad being disturbed by the three dumbsh*ts. He wanted to sleep in the car for a while. As a result, he got some exercise and was now refreshed. Looking at the two cars that were ruined by his kicks, Yang Ming sighed. Why the trouble? Is it so cool to be the prodigal young master? Do so many people strive to be that kind of person?
After waiting a while, Yang Ming received a call from Xiao Qing, saying that her meeting was over. She had Yang Ming go to the third-floor lab to find her. Yang Ming got off, locked the car, and walked to the lab on the third floor.
However, when he arrived on the third floor, he found out that he was blocked by an iron fence before reaching the lab. The iron fence was installed with a fingerprint lock that required fingerprint verification. So, as long as the fingerprint was not registered in the database, the gate would not be opened.
Yang Ming was helpless. Although he could forcibly destroy this fingerprint lock and enter the lab, it was not necessary. Yang Ming took out the phone and called Xiao Qing, “Sister Xiao Qing, I am at the fence at the entrance to the lab, but I can’t get in because I need fingerprint verification.”
” Ah !” Xiao Qing said embarrassed, “I had forgotten about it! Wait a minute. I will pick you up now.”
After hanging up the phone for a while, the iron fence at the end of the corridor opened. Xiao Qing gracefully walked out from the inside. She was dressed in a professional suit, and her mature charm made Yang Ming feel a little impulsive.
“I’m sorry. I forgot that there is a fingerprint lock!” Xiao Qing apologized while playing with her fine hair. She smiled at Yang Ming and opened the fingerprint door.
“It’s okay.” Yang Ming entered the iron gate and said, “Sister Xiao Qing, you look so good today.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. There is monitoring here.” Xiao Qing glared at Yang Ming and said, “Don’t be touchy.”
” Oh !” Yang Ming naturally saw the camera at the wall corner. But he held Xiao Qing abruptly as he approached. After all, he had not seen Xiao Qing for a long time.
“Why are you looking for me?” Xiao Qing took Yang Ming into her own lab. Several PhDs were in the lab studying in front of the computer. Yang Ming glanced at them and didn’t understand. They seemed to be designing some kind of model.
Inside the lab’s back room, this place was Xiao Qing’s territory. There were no outsiders here, so Xiao Qing naturally would not be polite to Yang Ming. She directly sat on the boss’ chair, then she tilted her head backward and put her hands on her lap comfortably. “I’ve been exhausted for these last two days.”
Yang Ming sat on the sofa next to it because there were surveillance cameras here. Although he did not know if they were activated, Yang Ming did not dare to fool around.
In this kind of high-end laboratory, cameras would be installed to ensure safety.
“The camera is not on.” Xiao Qing saw Yang Ming’s cautious look, and she felt a little amused. “I have all the controls here. What are you afraid of?”
“Your students are outside. Who knows if this room is soundproof or not?” said Yang Ming with a smile.
“Soundproof? Why? What kind of secret do you want to talk to me about?” Xiao Qing was puzzled, but when she saw the lecherous look on Yang Ming, she immediately understood his meaning… Is he saying to do that with me? Is he afraid that the students outside will hear it?
When she thought of this, Xiao Qing’s face suddenly became red. “Don’t talk nonsense. Do you have something to look for me?”
“Of course, I have.” Yang Ming put away his previous smile. He carefully took a mobile phone out of his pocket and placed it on Xiao Qing’s desk. It was the mobile phone he got from the driver, Chen Sisheng.
“What is this?” Xiao Qing glanced at the phone with a puzzled look and asked.
“An encrypted mobile phone. It is said to be used by military spies in foreign countries. Can you see if you can decrypt it?” Yang Ming introduced it briefly and then asked.
“Decrypt?” Xiao Qing did not ask why Yang Ming wanted to decrypt it because there was no need. There was no doubt in their relationship. Xiao Qing gently picked up the phone and checked it.
After turning on the power of the phone, the prompt for entering a password appeared on the screen. Xiao Qing did not dare to input it casually, but she turned off the mobile phone. She opened the back cover of the mobile phone and took out the mobile phone’s circuit board. She looked at the back label behind the mobile phone, and then said, “Let me first check the mobile phone’s related information.”
After that, Xiao Qing logged into the English website, goolge, and then entered the model of the mobile phone. She found the results of the search very quickly.
“The third-generation encrypted mobile phone produced by the DCIKRS company that can only input three passwords after encryption. After three password errors, it will execute the self-destruct program to destroy the structure of the flash memory chip and the data inside. It is a powerful generation stronger than the second generation’s high voltage breakdown and burn.” Xiao Qing looked at the information found on the computer screen and said, “It’s difficult to recover data from the burned flash memory. Only a few labs in the country can recover the data, but the flash memory can’t be recovered with its physical structure destroyed.”
“That is, it can’t be cracked?” Yang Ming listened to Xiao Qing and asked with some regret.
“This mobile phone does not have any data interface. It can’t communicate with the computer. If you want to decrypt… I can’t help you here…” Xiao Qing shook her head helplessly.
“But, isn’t there an infrared and Bluetooth interface on this phone? Can you use these to crack it?” Yang Ming still did not want to give up, pointing to the Bluetooth and infrared signs on the phone’s case. “I read it in some web novels that computer masters can crack the phone by connecting it to the computer using infrared or Bluetooth!”
” He …” Xiao Qing couldn’t help but smile and shake her head. “The majority of web novels are nonsense. Those authors don’t have any computer expertise. Of course, they will write nonsense to mislead you.”
“Why do you say that?” asked Yang Ming curiously.
“You don’t even know the basic mobile phone communication principle. Indeed, Bluetooth and infrared can transmit data, but the Bluetooth and infrared must be activated on the phone first!” Xiao Qing picked up the phone on the table, “Look. This mobile phone stays on the password prompt when it is turned on. That is to say, the program on the mobile phone is halted at the password prompt. If you do not enter the correct password, the phone will not turn on; and if you can’t access the phone interface, how do you turn on the Bluetooth or infrared?”
“It turns out to be like this…” Yang Ming was also studying computer science, so he roughly understood it after hearing Xiao Qing explain it. “It is just like the WINDOWS operating system. If you don’t enter a password when you boot, the system still can’t be used no matter what you do. These two are the same logic, right?”
“It’s about the same. But cracking the computer operating system password is much simpler, and the phone is much more difficult,” Xiao Qing nodded and said. “Even if you activate the infrared or Bluetooth, you can’t guarantee to crack the password. Because the infrared and Bluetooth functions of the mobile phone only allow file transfer. The function is limited to the application area. It can’t operate on the mobile phone’s internal programs at all. Therefore, only the data cable can operate on the program on the mobile phone. The computer establishes a connection with the phone’s CPU through the data cable, and can directly read and write the flash memory. It can be done without executing the phone’s program.”
” Ah !” Yang Ming was enlightened after listening to Xiao Qing’s explanation. So the web novels were misleading. Although Yang Ming had gained a lot of knowledge today, Yang Ming was somewhat frustrated. “So, it is impossible to decrypt it?”
“You can say that.” Xiao Qing nodded. “There is another way to directly analyze the contents of the flash memory using a decrypt program. However, this method obviously does not work. The flash memory chip in this mobile phone is specially made. There is no model and technical data outflow; there is no decrypt program that can support this chip. Moreover, even if it is possible to read, it is still not certain whether the program is encrypted or not…”
“Well… It seems that I am somewhat overestimating myself. I thought that it was possible to crack the encrypted phone made by such a world-famous company.” Yang Ming shook his head and said.
“That’s not the case.” Xiao Qing smiled and said, “There are countermeasures under the policy. Computer encryption and decryption are an eternal war. It has been going on for many years. However, while the priest climbs a foot, the devil climbs ten. No matter how powerful your encryption is, there are always hackers to crack it! For example, when the computer’s Windows operating system gets released, some hackers have already cracked it! The rest are some video game consoles, etc. They have been cracked down bit by bit by some hacker organizations. If the phone falls into the hands of those professional hackers, they might be able to figure out a way!”
“Hacker?!” Yang Ming’s eyes suddenly beamed. Xiao Qing is right. In this world, as long as there is encryption, there is decryption. The war between encryption and decryption has been going on for many years, but the encryption technology has been updated from generation to generation. From this point of view, it can be shown that the previous technology is not safe.
No one can tell who wins and who loses. Maybe encryption is more powerful today, but it might be cracked tomorrow. And the day after tomorrow, new encryption will emerge.
When Xiao Qing mentioned hackers, Yang Ming suddenly thought of Zhou Jiajia. Besides, didn’t Zhou Jiajia say that she knew that King of Hackers? If the mobile phone reached her hand, could she think of a way? Maybe she could not think of it, but there would be a way if she asked the King of Hackers to help.
“What? You are interested in hackers?” When Yang Ming heard the word hackers, he revealed a peculiar expression, and Xiao Qing asked, baffled.
