The joint investigation team finally found some clues in the GPS headquarters server room. In order to find clues about the botnet, they once again focused their attention on Asian IP addresses.

The two places with the most active computer users in Asia are Japan and Hong Kong.

Both regions were affected by global attacks, but the Japanese, who used more rice products, were less harmed in the first wave.

However, the computer equipment used by those giant companies was basically all paralyzed, and they were suddenly forced back to the primitive office environment, which took some getting used to.

Fortunately, the Japanese soldiers were quite patient and resilient, and they had endured all sorts of hardships.

After the defeat, he experienced various hardships and initially survived for a period of time on rice balls and soy sauce.

Now, not only is the economy in recession, but the advanced lifestyle is also starting to regress. If it weren't for many large enterprises supporting it, it would have long since fallen out of the ranks of developed economies.

Don't they realize what kind of life they're living now? They're scrimping and saving, taking on all sorts of part-time jobs.

My wife and children all go out to earn money to supplement the family income.

Just one flower shop has burdened many young people with heavy debt.

This virus outbreak almost blew up large and super-large enterprises. If they hadn't gritted their teeth and persevered, they probably would have had to lay off employees to save costs.

Which of the families of those laid-off employees can bear it?

The investigation team split into two groups, one going to Japan and the other to Hong Kong.

Japan is very compliant; they'll investigate freely, and ideally, they'll find out which bastard did it, then send a team willing to die for the cause to wipe out those bastards.

It's much more difficult in Hong Kong. Even if the Hong Kong government intervenes, Huahong Telecom won't open its data center for them to investigate.

Ultimately, the matter must be resolved through legal means, requiring an application for an investigation order from the court.

The Hong Kong government is also following legal procedures. If there is even the slightest violation, Wah Hong Group has top lawyers on its payroll. They'll send you a legal team at the drop of a hat.

The investigation warrant was issued, and they were allowed to enter the Huahong Telecom data center, but the number of people allowed in was limited, as it was a highly confidential location.

Hua Hong also invited several reporters to follow up on the story, fearing that the other party would make baseless accusations and that he needed a channel to voice his opinions.

The investigation team wanted to keep a low profile, while Huahong Group wanted to make a high profile.

The Hong Kong government tried to smooth things over by finding a compromise: reporters could only enter one establishment, and their reports needed to be approved before publication.

A data center is a critical location; how can it be without cameras?

Much of the data in the data center has been carefully processed by Xiaotian's team, but some things were not processed beforehand, resulting in a huge amount of data and traffic.

The investigation team seized on this point and began their investigation, only to discover that the date was not quite right. Since they had come to find fault, they didn't care that the date was wrong.

They extracted the suspicious data, intending to use it as evidence. They even questioned the person in charge about the situation.

The joint investigation team reported to the Hong Kong government that they had found significant evidence of suspicion and that arrests could be made.

Several key technical personnel in the computer room were detained.

Hong Kong, like the United States, is a place that values ​​law, so lawyers are extremely important. People are always worried about being harassed, so lawyers are always on standby.

When the technicians were arrested, the lawyers lodged a protest.

If protests are effective, what's the point of having a Hong Kong government? Wow, this is quite a spectacle.

Huang Xingyao, president of Huahong Group, was summoned for a talk.

When the media waiting outside saw the Hong Kong government making arrests, their flashbulbs went off non-stop, constantly photographing the hooded people.

The TV station immediately interrupted the broadcast with this news that evening.

The lawyer stood in front of the camera, angrily explaining something, complaining that the Hong Kong government was acting illegally and arresting people without any real evidence.

The following day, the stocks of several listed companies under Huahong Group plummeted.

Huang Xingyao has been taken away for 18 hours. If there is no new evidence, he will be released in a few hours.

Of course, many reporters from the General Police Station have already occupied the area.

After receiving the news, Xing Baohua did not rush over immediately. Instead, he called Yu Shenghai and told him, "If the evidence is not clear, then hire a few more lawyers and sue the Hong Kong government as well."

"Okay, boss."

"We should get more media coverage and say that we are wronged and not receiving fair treatment. We should say that the foreigners in the Hong Kong government want to destroy several large companies so that they will leave a mess when the mainland takes over."

Whether it's Huahong or Haina, they might consider withdrawing from Hong Kong for a few years, putting pressure on the Hong Kong government.

The key now is the incriminating evidence against the investigation team.

Hua Hong's legal team can see the so-called evidence, but it's all strings of code that they can't understand. They can only get assistance from Hua Hong's technical staff.

When the technology saw the so-called evidence of wrongdoing, it laughed.

Previously, Huahong Enterprise's website and servers were maliciously attacked by hackers. Huahong Telecom was a key target.

Xing Baohua personally oversaw the resolution of this matter.

The suspicious evidence obtained by the joint investigation team was the data and traffic generated during the malicious intrusion.

The largest traffic spikes, especially, came from those big names who had been imprisoned.

There were traces of the virus inside, but they were all eliminated, and the virus was not the small Tiger that swept the globe.

Among them, the most commonly used viruses are DDoS viruses and Little Tiger, which are two different attack modes.

After being translated piece by piece by the technical staff, even the barristers began to worry about the Hong Kong government and the joint investigation team.

The most crucial thing is time. Are you insulting lawyers by leaving such a huge loophole?

"I don't know how these idiots got into the joint investigation team. Not one of them knows anything about technology," the lawyer said to his team members behind him.

This is a conspiracy to frame someone, and the losses suffered by Huahong's listed companies and the indirect reputational damage can be tallied.
