Pinpointing the Location

The location of the archive is relatively easy to find. As the city's data security center, it is located within the city's Security Bureau headquarters, a very secure location.

No one would think of rushing in to cause trouble unless they really wanted to reopen the business.

With hundreds of security personnel on duty at headquarters day and night, and so many security personnel coming and going, naturally no one would dare to target it.

Li Xingkong is no ordinary person, so he came.

Li Xingkong walked openly to the entrance of the Security Bureau, stopped, and looked up at the building in front of him.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the exterior of this Security Bureau, it's incredibly magnificent, with a nearly 20-story high-rise building rising from the ground, surrounded by a large wall enclosing a vast area.

The entrance to the Security Bureau is also very magnificent, with two lifelike stone sculptures guarding the entrance. The gate is spacious enough for four cars to enter and exit side by side.

Standing at the entrance, you can see police cars coming and going frequently, making it quite a lively scene.

It seems the security in this Nature City is quite busy; Li Xingkong might Heavenly Capital in China.

Standing there at the door would be too conspicuous, which would conflict with Li Xingkong's plan to sneak in.

So he only stood there for a few moments before wandering around. To onlookers, he looked like a tourist who had just arrived and wanted to take pictures of everything he saw.

But in reality, Li Xingkong was planning his route; he was considering where he should enter from.

It's true that the Security Bureau has cameras, but unless there's a major incident, no one usually watches them.

Why would someone have a job specifically watching security cameras? Isn't that usually a side job for security guards?

By the time someone remembers to check the surveillance footage, he'll already be long gone, and no one will be able to catch him.

After surveying the area and gaining a general understanding of the terrain, Li Xingkong immediately began his operation.

Finding a corner, Li Xingkong looked around. With his current abilities, he could sense if someone was looking at him.

This can be considered an enhancement of the sixth sense brought about by cultivating immortality. Many people in reality also have this ability, but it is not as obvious.

Sensing that the gazes directed at him would disappear, Li Xingkong waved his hand lightly, then leaped over the Security Bureau's wall.

In the blink of an eye, he had already stepped onto the lawn inside the Security Bureau.

No one noticed, no one even saw his movements.

Once inside the Security Bureau, there's no need to hide too much.

One issue is that you need to ask about the location of the archives yourself. Another issue is that modern people are generally very strict about entry, but they usually don't question those who have already entered.

Generally, when we encounter a stranger inside any place that requires a ticket, we don't find it strange if they have a ticket, because everyone assumes they do; otherwise, how would they have gotten in?

This has led to the enduring online joke that you can enter any building by simply carrying a ladder.

Li Xingkong took advantage of this. Even if someone inside encountered him, they wouldn't suspect that he had infiltrated the organization, because they had never seen him before and didn't know his background, so naturally no one would dare to ask.

They were afraid that this was some leader on an incognito visit.

As the saying goes, your appearance reflects your heart. When you are confident in yourself, others will naturally think more highly of you.

So he walked very steadily the whole way, and even nodded to people he met.

Although they didn't recognize Li Xingkong, they didn't dare to make eye contact with him too much. When Li Xingkong nodded in acknowledgment, they all expressed their friendliness in the same way.

The logic is simple: what important person could be running errands around during working hours?

They're just ordinary wage earners; who cares who you are?

Truly responsible and righteous security personnel are usually active on the front lines all day, while those with power and influence are drinking tea in their offices.

Only ordinary people, without connections or special abilities, would be busy all day long, running around for trivial matters.

Let alone seeing a stranger being arrested, the Security Bureau would be furious. Most of them would probably think, "Great, we can finally have a holiday!"

Li Xingkong does know a thing or two about this. As for how he knows it, don't ask. The answer is racial talent.

After wandering around for a while, Li Xingkong finally found the location of the archives. It was indeed a very remote place, located in a corner of the entire Security Bureau.

It's a small, two-story building with a large footprint, which looks like a round box from a distance.

There were hardly any people here. Li Xingkong walked to the door and peered inside. There wasn't a single person in the hall, only a large number of servers set up inside.

Because it's a data storage area, it's usually kept under strict dust control Heavenly Capital —simply put, the windows are completely covered, and it's as dark inside as if it were nighttime.

Aside from the flickering light from the monitor, once inside, it's pitch black and you can't see anything.

Perfect, it saves Li Xingkong trouble.

He pushed the door open and entered without making a sound.

If you look closely, Li Xingkong's movements are no different from his normal actions, but strangely, none of his movements make a sound.

In this situation, even if there's no one around, or even if someone is standing in front of him with their back to him, he wouldn't notice them at all.

Li Xingkong quickly found a terminal that was turned on, indicating that someone was working there.

But he probably just turned on his computer, swiped his card, and left.

Li Xingkong was wearing gloves, so he wouldn't leave any traces this time. Li Xingkong sat down in front of the terminal and first checked the desktop.

Most technical personnel sound impressive, but in reality, nine out of ten are lazybones.

When promoting security information to the outside world, they say things like changing passwords every two weeks and generating keys, but when it comes to themselves, they just use their names with "123" added to them until they die, or something like "qwer1234".

As for how the administrator who manages everyone's permissions remembers the passwords, that's even simpler.

Li Xingkong found the file clearly visible on the desktop: Security Bureau member permissions and account information.

That's why social engineering is the ultimate skill in hacking.

Who would install encryption on their own computer on a local network? That's just torture!

Having easily obtained an account with administrator privileges, Li Xingkong immediately logged into the archive and began searching.

It's difficult to find someone without a name.

However, Li Xingkong wasn't completely without any information.

He's a Guan Zhenzhen!

Having a specific number makes finding someone much easier.

Modern social engineering databases contain a wealth of information, ranging from personal identity information to your account information on various platforms, and even credit card details that you might not even know about yourself.

With the help of the verified account number, and the fact that Li Xingkong still remembered what she looked like, he had enough information in the social engineering database to pinpoint someone.

After several minutes of searching, the amount of data appearing in front of Li Xingkong gradually decreased.

After several rounds of filtering, Li Xingkong finally had only one person's information left.

This is the legendary unboxing; I never thought I'd become a box-hunting addict one day.

Bah! Those idiots deserve to die! I have nothing to do with them, and I certainly won't spread this information online.

Li Xingkong on it, and what appeared in front of him was a file form with very distinctive Divine Land characteristics.

Looking at the photo at the top of the file, that smiling, seemingly innocent and harmless face, Li Xingkong felt reassured.

It's definitely her.

After a quick glance, Li Xingkong realized that this person was indeed an outstanding talent.

Her file clearly states her purpose for coming here: to attend university. She entered one of the top universities in the Prisoner Continent, majoring in finance. With these qualifications, she would be considered a top talent even in Divine Land. She has since made further progress in her studies and is currently pursuing a master's degree, which is still listed as ongoing.

Li Xingkong couldn't understand it. Was this woman some kind of divine gold? Wasn't she already a chosen one of heaven? Why would she make the mistake of taking things from others?

If you continue reading, the subsequent files also appear normal; from this perspective alone, you can't see any problems at all.

Li Xingkong flipped through a few more pages and discovered some clues.

The credit cards under her name are enough to play poker.
