"Last time, you said you had a friend who was good with computers?"
The call connected, and Luo Hongyun's voice came through, getting straight to the point.
"Yes, that's right."
Xia Xu nodded slightly and smiled. "Uncle Luo, you're calling about Dong Changhe, right?"
A hint of surprise entered Luo Hongyun's voice. "You know?"

"We can give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, I have other ways to find Duan Zhiyi. They might just take some time."
Xia Xu nodded thoughtfully.
Naturally, he had considered hacking back through the drones' network to pinpoint Duan Zhiyi's location.
Brain-Control Technology was essentially the interpretation of brain waves. Communication between the drones and their control terminal still took place through electromagnetic waves-in other words, network signals.
So there had to be a network connection between Duan Zhiyi and the drones. In theory, hacking into the drones might make it possible to trace his location.
But that was only in theory. It was extremely difficult, and there were many problems to solve.
After all, drones had originally been developed for military use, and many people considered
