The quality of equipment in this era is still better. Although there were some close calls, the equipment was still able to withstand the pressure and continue operating.
When the progress was at 99.8%, one of the small servers finally started smoking, and all the power and performance were put on the other small server.
The high-load flow also caused the machine to slow down instantly, and its speed dropped significantly.
Even on laptops, P2P download software suffers from reduced processing power, resulting in slower download speeds.
There was no other way but to tough it out. While there was time, I packed the broken server into my luggage; I had to take this thing with me.
Even if it's bad, you can't leave the other party with clues or evidence.
"Potato, potato, a convoy of vehicles is coming from the direction of the United States, about seven or eight vehicles, and there are also armored vehicles."
As soon as Xing Baohua's walkie-talkie crackled to life, everyone around him turned to look at him.
The download speed was still too slow. Seeing the looks in everyone's eyes, Xing Baohua decisively said to them, "Pack your things and let's leave."
"It's not finished downloading yet, just a fraction of a second away." Geng Xin said to Xing Baohua, pointing to a wire with plastic sheathing over a poorly soldered component.
"It's too late. A little bit won't matter. We'll go back and fix it." Xing Baohua replied while operating the download software on his laptop.
First, implement a protection program for the downloaded data, and quickly check the files on the hard drive, their size, and so on.
While there's still some time, let the program shut down automatically so you can unplug it and leave in an emergency. However, this requires a hot-swappable hardware protocol.
Just like a USB flash drive, you can plug it in and unplug it freely without any hardware issues, but it can affect the data you're working with.
To be on the safe side, Xing Baohua followed the steps of stopping data downloads, saving data, and closing the program.
Five minutes passed in no time.
After he finished operating, he treated all the devices, except for the hard drive, which required careful handling.
Get rid of all the connecting cables, power cords, and the like. Pack up the equipment and get out of there as soon as possible.
"Potato, two police cars are here. They've entered the surface parking lot," Xing Baohua's voice came through the walkie-talkie again.
"Hold them off, or open fire. We've already retreated to point C. It'll take three minutes to reach the ground, so you guys need to hold them off for five minutes."
They then inquired whether the car had reached the designated location.
After receiving the reply, Xing Baohua instructed everyone to evacuate as quickly as possible.
As soon as it emerged from the ground, I heard a crackling sound, like small firecrackers, followed by intermittent sounds.
It was probably the sound of Japanese police using small-caliber weapons; Xing Baohua's side of the equipment all had silencers.
The fact that firefight has already broken out indicates that the situation is extremely urgent.
Everyone was carrying heavy loads and running fast. This was not only a matter of physical strength, but also required perseverance.
The Japanese soldiers' walls weren't very high, especially for a telecommunications company like theirs. The low walls were like a base, with a layer of barbed wire on top.
A symbolic barrier to prevent outsiders from entering.
This is advantageous for us; it's much better than climbing over the wall and getting a rope. A hydraulic shears can handle it.
As we approached the wall, several flashlight beams came from the north. They were making some kind of incoherent noises, but I couldn't understand them.
Due to the poor lighting, Xing Baohua and his men couldn't see who was coming from, so he could only tell his men to run while he covered their retreat.
There was no way around it; this group of people were all intellectuals, and among them, Xing Baohua was the youngest and strongest.
Although Xing Baohua stopped to prepare to fight against the rushing people, he suddenly felt someone next to him. He turned his head and saw Geng Xin.
"What are you doing here? Get out of here!"
“I’ll hold them off. You’re the leader, you go first.” Geng Xin said, assuming a defensive stance with her left fist in front, her right fist close to her face, and her feet one in front of the other.
Xing Baohua grabbed her by the back of her collar and said, "Get out of here right now."
Without saying a word, he pulled out a Beretta from behind his waist and fired a burst of bullets at each of the light sources.
When Geng Xin finished firing 15 rounds and was about to change the magazine, she pulled out her own weapon and fired wildly.
Perhaps the tense atmosphere made her forget that she also had her weapons with her. She was even thinking of going up and fighting them bare-handed! Sigh! It's true that it's easy to forget things when you're nervous.
Hearing wails coming from the ground not far away, Xing Baohua grabbed Geng Xin and ran.
Having finally squeezed through the barbed wire, I heard a rapid series of "q" sounds. Judging by the time, the American reinforcements wouldn't arrive so quickly!
Where did the support team come from?
"We've already evacuated, you guys get out of here quickly," Xing Baohua said into the walkie-talkie.
After a few seconds, there was still no response from the walkie-talkie.
Xing Baohua was a little anxious. Seeing that the trainee had already boarded the car, he quickly walked over, shoved Geng Xin inside, patted the roof of the car, and said, "Let's go!"
The car didn't move, and several hands were grabbing Xing Baohua's clothes. Geng Xin was so anxious that she couldn't even open the car door.
At this moment, Xing Baohua's voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Boss, the Japanese special agent J has arrived. Melon No. 3 and Melon No. 4 have evacuated and will arrive at the designated position according to plan. Melon No. 2 and I will cover you. Hurry up and get out of here."
After hearing this, the car started moving.
Xing Baohua was held by her clothes and couldn't get away for a moment. Her feet were still pacing back and forth outside the car, like small, quick steps.
He was forcibly dragged in through the window by the crowd. His backpack was stuck in the window for a while, and half of his body was still outside. Fortunately, there weren't many cars at night, otherwise his lower body would probably have been gone.
After finally getting on the bus, Xing Baohua looked at everyone's tense expressions in the cramped space and didn't say anything more, but instead gripped the walkie-talkie tightly.
