Go Crazy, Tremble

Mu Fan's eyes crossed a hundred meters and fixed on the "Swallow" in the night sky.

Then he lowered his head.

"Black, can you track the person behind the signal? I'm interested."

"Yes! They actually dared to sneak up on us without anyone noticing. Just watch Grandpa Black find them. There's a 24-meter-tall signal transmission tower nearby. It can simulate shortwave reception. Frequency matching is in progress..."

"Interesting. This drone's shortwave signal uses 192-bit encryption, and on such an obscure frequency too. Did they think that would let them evade Grandpa Black?"

Without any warning, the "Swallow," which had been cruising high in the night sky, suddenly plunged headfirst down, diving straight at Mu Fan!

"Because the other party is not connected to the public network, decryption is slow. Current shortwave encryption cracking progress: 20%..."

"32%..."
