Chapter 30
After noting down the names of those two people, Chen Nan found it much easier to search for them online, and she was indeed able to find some information about them.
In the following days, she focused her attention on searching for information about the two people online.
We live in a unique era where, having experienced a major catastrophe, everyone is extremely reliant on the internet and eager to record their own lives.
In fact, in Chen Nan's previous life, almost everyone had a mobile phone, everyone dreamed of becoming an internet celebrity, and everyone posted their own videos to some extent.
But in those days, even if everyone wanted it, not everyone could get it.
Whether you're an internet celebrity, a self-media creator, or simply documenting your own life, you're bound to expose your privacy to some extent.
This has always been a problem for conservative Chinese people who value privacy and security.
So back then, even though everyone relied on the internet, everyone dreamed of making a fortune through social media.
But many people are just thinking about it; many people stop at the very first step of showing their face.
Back then, there were even many videos online that didn't show faces.
Some people even show their faces, using all sorts of beauty filters and makeup to disguise themselves. So even if they post videos, no one will recognize them.
But now, the situation of leaving the country is similar to that of Europe and America in Chen Nan's previous life.
It's the kind of place where everyone uses their real name online, and many people's profile pictures are of themselves, and they definitely don't use beauty filters or makeup.
Moreover, the videos people post nowadays are genuinely reflecting their own thoughts. Therefore, most of the videos people post are very authentic.
Therefore, if a person is truly a citizen of another country, he is basically recorded from birth.
When we were little, our parents and elders recorded our videos. By the time we were four, five, seven, or eight, kids would use their parents' phones to post their own vain videos. Then, when we got a little older, in our teens, almost everyone had their own phone and started having their own accounts.
Even the most introverted and privacy-conscious person has their own account. It's like a phone number; even if they don't make calls often, they still have that account.
In this day and age, most people who want to know about you will first look for your account.
People often start dating online, spending a month there before committing to anything more. This forces every normal person living abroad to own a mobile phone and have their own social media account.
In any case, for the past few days, Chen Nan has been searching for those two people's accounts and information online using their real names.
Furthermore, when browsing through those people's following lists, Chen Nan could clearly see their relatives, friends, and classmates. By further examining those people's accounts and various records, Chen Nan could also find other traces of the two people she wanted to investigate.
The family of the martyr surnamed Shen lived in the dire situation of Safety Zone 73 for a long time. His parents and grandparents were almost all from the local supernatural abilities institute. During an accident in Zone 73, his parents, grandparents, and older brother all perished in the unexpected attack on Cockroach Planet. He was later found in the ruins of the safety zone, and his identity was confirmed through a smart bracelet. After becoming a martyr, he was raised by the local military. As a descendant of a martyr, and having suddenly gained supernatural abilities in the accident, he naturally received preferential treatment and was given important positions. Then, at the age of 26, he successfully became a presidential guard officer.
As for that outstanding officer surnamed He, he was an excellent superhuman recommended all the way up from the 72nd Safety Zone. Since his parents and family were all still alive, Chen Nan felt everything seemed normal when she looked through his records. At least this person loved posting videos, and almost everything about him from childhood to adulthood could be found online. He also had a huge following list, with many people following him. His parents' and family's accounts also provided a constant view of his life's journey.
Most importantly, of the two, the martyr was rescued and underwent specialized facial reconstructive surgery. He had been injured in the explosion during the accident, and only after the surgery did he decide against posting videos frequently. He explained this in his videos, saying that seeing his current appearance made him sad and upset, so he wouldn't post as many documentary videos in the future.
Both of them lost their parents and family, and one had even undergone facial surgery. They entered military academy step by step with the help of the government and the military.
One was born with impeccable political integrity, but because of his outstanding abilities, he was gradually pushed out of the remote and backward border security zone by his family, teachers, and local officials.
Each of these two individuals is a genius and an outstanding talent.
It seems wrong to doubt anyone.
But after searching through everyone around Tang Xin, Chen Nan only found these two suspects.
The strange thing is that so much time has passed that she can no longer remember the character's name in the novel, so this is the only way she can find him.
Moreover, the state is now protecting these people.
They used to be able to post videos freely, but since they started working at the Presidential Office, they are all prohibited from disclosing themselves online.
Furthermore, Chen Nan doesn't have access to all the photos and lists of the current Presidential Security Service. If she had a group photo of them, Chen Pan believes it would be easy to find the other party. But the key issue is that she doesn't have that kind of information, and it can't be found online either.
That guy named Shen He, he still has relatives on his maternal grandfather's side.
If he could freely leave the safe zone, Chen Pan could go out and ask his maternal grandfather's house himself.
But given the current special circumstances, she is not leaving the safe zone at all.
So after thinking it over and over, Chen Pan spent some time finding out about the other party's maternal grandparents' home and then tried to send a message to them.
But for some reason, none of them paid any attention to him.
With no other option, Chen Nan had to temporarily halt her investigation of Shen He and begin investigating another person.
Just as Chen Pan was using the most rudimentary method—clicking on each of the two people's following lists one by one, trying to guess the identities of those who followed them—Tang Ke, who had lent Chen Nan her phone, sensed something was amiss that very evening.
Chen Nan is of a lower rank, and he is unable to find information on all the people involved.
But Tang Ke has the authority to check anyone's information.
Moreover, their phones have a preview record of anyone using the new system.
Even the document records how long he stayed on it.
Chen Nan suddenly wanted to check those people's information, and Tang Ke didn't object or stop her. But after she finished checking, when he went home that night, he subconsciously took another look at it out of caution.
Then, when he saw Shen He inside, whose parents had died, and whose brothers, friends, and even grandparents had all died tragically, he instinctively became suspicious.
He wasn't doubting that the other party's parents and family had all sacrificed themselves.
Such incidents occur frequently in border security zones.
He suspected that the other person had been disfigured and had undergone plastic surgery. Even the other person's identity was later confirmed through a security bracelet, meaning no real person could verify it.
In such a situation—
Tang Ke was sent to the army with her cousin when she was thirteen years old. After they were forcibly converted to civilian jobs, they spent more than six years together on the border.
In that place, cockroach monsters and cockroach viruses don't care about their identities.
In particularly dangerous situations, no one will give them preferential treatment just because of their special status.
They stayed in that place long enough, killed enough cockroach monsters, captured enough infected, and carried out enough dangerous and numerous missions before those people saw them again and trusted them once more.
Having lived in that place for so long, they had almost ingrained vigilance and constant suspicion into their very bones.
Previously, Tang Ke had never specifically investigated the people around his cousin, and he only learned about Shen He and He Yihang for the first time today.
But now that he's looked up Shen He's information, he feels something's not right.
Sensing something was wrong, Tang Ke didn't hesitate for a second and immediately called the person he now suspected, his boss.
Office of the Head of the Security Department of the Presidential Palace (Beijing).
Wei Zheng, the head of the security department, had just hung up the phone when he immediately ordered his men to detain both the two people Tang Ke suspected and mentioned.
Here, anyone they suspect will not be investigated or taken into custody.
Instead, they will choose the highest level of individual detention, conduct an investigation after detention, and release the person only after confirming that they have no problems whatsoever.
In any case, once those two were put on the suspect list, they could no longer stay by the president's side.
