Dalia separates the three musketeers for questioning, and the three find themselves in a prisoner's dilemma.
Who actively cooperated? Who made a valuable whistleblower report? Who's been constantly clamoring to hire a lawyer?
After a period of psychological counseling based on the principle of "leniency for those who confess and severity for those who resist," the three musketeers were quickly broken down one by one and revealed information about KinoZal.
One of the fake five was a mediocre hacker, but he was still considered a professional. He not only successfully took over the website, but also took the server with him.
Those were all tools used in the crime; we need to secure evidence against them!
Dalia got a budget of $40 from Li Xiang, but the actual expenses were less than $5000. Even the car used for "police duty" was stolen in Moscow.
Russia's most popular pirated video website has suddenly gone offline overnight.
-
No. 17, Green Mountain City.
Li Xiang was very satisfied with what Dalia brought back.
[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 12199.99]
With the help of [Deep Scan], Li Xiang taught himself programming and already had some basic skills. Back in 06, if you wanted to get rich overnight, you still had to rely on the internet.
"Dalia, tell me the truth, did you give them the money or not?"
"Are you trying to renege on your debt?" Dalia didn't give a direct answer.
Li Xiang said coldly, "I've already transferred the money to Natasha. Natasha opened a stock account for Roman in her own name and bought Google shares. If you don't believe me, you can call and ask now."
"Why teach him to trade stocks when he's so young?" Dalia immediately smiled.
"What about the question I asked you?" Li Xiang pressed.
Dalia got up, took two cans of beer from the refrigerator, handed one to Li Xiang, and sighed, "I admit I didn't pay."
"I've already done the work, I can't just send the money back to them, can I?"
"If you can tell me the truth, then we can still talk." Li Xiang opened a beer and took a sip. He hadn't eaten, and his stomach felt cold. "Aunt Dalia, are you that short of money? How much money is enough for you? Tell me a number."
Sergei stayed on at Bosideng.
Li Xiang's cousin, Han Jiayin, had performed quite well in managing the factory in Vietnam. With Lao Li guiding her, she quickly got the hang of things.
But once they step out of their comfort zone, they start to falter.
After counting them over and over, Li Xiang realized that among the people around him, Aunt Dalia truly had the strongest execution ability.
Moreover, Roman being "kidnapped" to the United States can be considered a soft hostage in our hands, which can reduce Dalia's unpredictability to some extent.
Dalia revealed the truth: "I'm not just after the money. I want to bring back the old friends who have fallen apart in the family and find a way out together."
"I admit that the law is becoming more and more comprehensive and the old ways are no longer effective, but no matter how the world changes, there will always be problems that the law cannot solve."
"When you are cornered and want to seek a solution outside the law, no matter who you turn to, you are handing over your weaknesses to them."
"We're family, I can do these things for you. You may never need me in your life, and I hope you never need me either."
Li Xiang was silent for a while, then finished his beer and crumpled the can. "You've convinced me. I'm going to Japan Island in a while. You'll come with me."
"What are you doing? I'm pretty busy right now, I still have to arrange my trip to Germany," Dalia asked.
"I'll treat you to eel rice."

Hongxing Plumbing Fittings Factory ceased operations in 01. Because the factory was located in St. Petersburg city and had relatively convenient transportation, it was rented out as a warehouse.
Li Xiang also rented a room, but he used it as a server room.
Although these old factory areas have outdated equipment, they have a stable power supply, are connected to the network, and can be registered under the name of the "Red Star" state-owned enterprise.
The purchased servers have arrived and are currently being tested and installed.
A group of men were working, tired and hot, when a pretty young woman suddenly appeared, immediately attracting the attention of many people, and some even whistled.
Galina, wearing high heels and swaying her hips, waved and said, "Mr. Li."
Li Xiang turned around, looking completely bewildered. "Who are you? What do you want with me?"
-
Gatekeeper's lounge.
Li Xiang poured Galina a glass of water from an enamel mug in the cabinet.
"Aren't you redheads?"
"That's dyed." Galina took the water tank and drank a small sip.
"What about the tattoo?"
"Stickers, haven't you noticed that my tattoos are different every time you see me?" Galina explained with a smile, "It's for work. I'm in a bar every day, so I have to dress to match the atmosphere."
"What do you want?" Li Xiang asked, drawing a clear line. "Have I repaid the favor I owed you?"
"How should I put it?" Galina's expression changed, and she pouted, looking aggrieved. "I thought that taking down the Malyshev gang's distillery would benefit my bootlegging business, but I never expected you to bring in the National Guard."
"Now things have blown up. The Tambov gang thinks I'm too close to you and doesn't want anything to do with Gusinsky, so they kicked me out."
"My bar and brewery have been taken over by gangs."
"You meant well by returning a favor, but it didn't turn out well. Now I'm homeless and struggling to make ends meet. You have to take responsibility for me."
Li Xiang re-scanned Galina.
The last scan showed that Galina's "key information" section indicated that she and Kumarin Jr. were half-siblings, but that information is no longer available.
However, a new message appeared in the "Privacy" section stating that the user's level was insufficient to access the information.
Can sibling relationships disappear?
Of course.
DNA testing showed no kinship; the child is either illegitimate or the sibling relationship has been severed.
But intuitively, Li Xiang was more inclined to believe that Galina was sent by Kumarin Jr. to infiltrate the country. She might not have had malicious intent. Perhaps she was being cunning, wanting to have multiple escape routes.
"Do you think I can believe anything you're saying?" Li Xiang snatched the enamel mug from Galina's hand and shooed her out. "You failed the interview, but I believe that with your abilities, you won't starve no matter where you go."
"Think about it again."
Galina was pushed out reluctantly, not expecting to win over Li Xiang in one go.

St. Petersburg State University has many wealthy students, among whom the most arrogant are the sons of powerful and wealthy families from the five Central Asian countries.
They all seem to have a family fortune, especially those who own mines. They drive luxury cars, live in mansions, and change girlfriends more often than they change underwear.
Every time Li Xiang returned to school, he would use his "Deep Scan" to scan the streets, looking for any low-profile big shots lurking around, hoping to find an opportunity to make their acquaintance.
They didn't find any hidden Central Asian elites, but they did find a tech mogul who hadn't yet risen to prominence.
Pavel Durov, the Russian version of Zakberg.
Durov created several non-commercial internet projects while he was in college, and after graduating this year, he began to plan his first commercial project.
VKontakte, the Russian version of Facebook.
Li Xiang recognized Durov because of a news story from his previous life: this guy had over a hundred biological children in more than a dozen countries through sperm donation.
He also made a will, promising that his children could inherit his estate.
Li Xiang didn't have much of an impression of Durov's current startup project, VKontakte, but his other communication software, Telegram, was world-renowned.
