Chapter 553: Scammer's MMS
The other party was silent for a few seconds and then said, "You dialed the wrong number."
The voice sounded a little low, and seemed to carry a hint of vigilance.
Qi Tongwei sneered in his heart. He had long expected that the other party would not be exposed easily.
Suddenly, he hit the Enter key as if inadvertently, and at that moment, a coordinate position suddenly appeared on the computer interface.
This was a small mechanism he had set up in advance. As soon as the other party answered the call, he could obtain the other party's approximate location through special signal tracking technology.
Qi Tongwei raised the corners of his mouth, and his voice sounded a little annoyed. He said, "I'm not buying insurance. I heard others say that I could make money, and I thought... Oh, it's okay, I heard it wrong."
He deliberately made his words vague, wanting to make the other party think that he was just a person who made the call by accident and was interested in the opportunity to make money, trying to further lower the other party's vigilance.
Qi Tongwei was about to hang up the phone, his finger was already on the hang-up button, but his eyes were fixed on the computer screen, closely watching the changes in coordinates.
The other party really took the bait and immediately said, "Wait a minute."
There seemed to be a hint of urgency in the voice, perhaps because he felt that Qi Tongwei was a potential "prey" and didn't want to let him go so easily.
But Qi Tongwei hung up the phone without hesitation.
He didn't want to give the other party too much time to think, so as to avoid any more trouble.
He looked at the coordinates on the computer and was secretly delighted. It was indeed nearby.
He knew that this coordinate was one of the key clues to finding Mengyao.
Qi Tongwei turned to look at Chen Ran, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, and said: "Found it, they should be nearby."
"This coordinate is not far from our current location. We have to be careful. These scammers must be very cunning. There may be their spies or defensive measures around."
Chen Ran looked at Qi Tongwei with admiration in his eyes. He nodded firmly and said, "Commander, I will listen to you."
Qi Tongwei looked at the coordinates on the computer screen again and began to conceive the next action plan in his mind. He wanted to ensure that everything was foolproof, successfully rescue Meng Yao, and at the same time catch this fraud gang in one fell swoop.
Chen Ran stared intently at the coordinates on the computer, his expression extremely alert. He carefully examined the coordinates and said, "Looking at this location, it should be less than five kilometers away from us."
After saying that, he raised his head, his eyes full of curiosity, and couldn't help asking Qi Tongwei: "Chief Qi, how did you know that this person would be here?"
Qi Tongwei did not answer immediately, but silently took out a small black box from his bag.
This small box looks ordinary and there is nothing special about it, but when Qi Tongwei holds it in his hand, it feels like he is holding a rare treasure.
He held the small box in front of Chen Ran and said, "This is connected to the communication system. It's a device that was developed only last year. It can trace the coordinates of all communications within seven days."
Chen Ran's eyes lit up instantly, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and his face was full of shock.
"Is there such a thing?"
There was uncontrollable excitement and surprise in his voice.
In his opinion, although the special forces' equipment is very advanced, the functions of this small box are still beyond his imagination.
Qi Tongwei saw Chen Ran's expression and nodded slightly. Then he took the small box in his hand and fiddled with it while explaining, "This person was here seven days ago. I was suspicious of this number at the time, so I used this device to record its communication coordinates."
"Originally, I just wanted to try my luck. If he wasn't there, I would just go to Mian Country. I didn't expect he would still be there."
"This is a pleasant surprise. It may mean that we are one step closer to finding Mengyao."
Chen Ran listened to Qi Tongwei's explanation without taking his eyes off the small black box.
His admiration for Qi Tongwei increased a little more. In his opinion, Qi Tongwei not only possessed extraordinary wisdom and military capabilities, but was also able to master such advanced high-tech equipment. He was simply omnipotent.
"Commander Qi, how was this device developed? What's the principle behind it?"
Chen Ran blurted out a series of questions like a curious baby.
He was full of curiosity about the little box and wanted to know everything about it.
Qi Tongwei smiled, he knew that Chen Ran's curiosity was completely aroused.
He patiently explained, "The development of this device involves a lot of complex technologies. Simply put, it uses the characteristics of communication signals during transmission, combined with satellite positioning systems and special algorithms, to determine the coordinates of the communication device."
"Moreover, it can also deeply mine communication data to obtain historical coordinate information within seven days."
"However, the technical details involved are very complicated and cannot be explained in a short time."
Although Chen Ran didn't quite understand what he heard, he kept nodding his head, his eyes full of longing for this high-tech equipment.
He knew that there must be many advanced equipment like this in the special forces. He secretly made up his mind to work hard to improve himself and strive to get access to more such high-tech equipment to provide more help for future missions.
Qi Tongwei carefully put the small box back into his bag, then looked at the coordinates on the computer, his expression becoming serious.
He said to Chen Ran: "Although we know the enemy's approximate location, we cannot let our guard down."
"This place might be one of their bases. There must be quite a few of their people around. We must approach it cautiously and find out the situation before taking any action."
Chen Ran immediately suppressed the excitement on his face, nodded seriously and said, "Yes, Chief. I'll listen to you."
After that, the two began to carefully discuss the next action plan. They knew that a fierce battle might be about to begin.
Chen Ran became increasingly aware that there was a gap between special forces soldiers.
This gap is not just a difference in physical fitness or combat skills, but more of a difference in the resources behind it and the content that can be accessed.
He recalled that when he was in his original unit, he became the best in the team with his own efforts and talent.
There, he also received some rigorous training, had some good equipment, and was proud of his skills and knowledge.
However, since coming to the Wolf Fang Brigade, everything he has experienced has been constantly refreshing his cognition.
Special forces of different levels and belonging to different military regions enjoy completely different resources and are exposed to completely different content.
Just like the small black box that Qi Tongwei just took out, this is high-tech equipment that he could not even imagine in his original unit.
In the original troops, although their communication equipment could meet basic combat needs, its functions were far less powerful and magical than this small box.
Moreover, the Wolf Fang Brigade always seems to be able to obtain various advanced equipment and technologies first, which gives them more advantages when performing tasks.
Let’s look at Qi Tongwei. He not only has rich practical experience, but also is familiar with various high-tech equipment. He even participates in game development, a field that seems to have nothing to do with the identity of a special forces soldier.
All this shows how vast the resources and platform provided by the Wolf Fang Brigade are.
Here, special forces can access the most cutting-edge military technology, the most advanced equipment, and participate in various complex and high-end tasks.
He now realized more and more that he was like a frog sitting at the bottom of a well, and could only see the small piece of sky above his head.
I thought I had already reached a high position in the world of special forces, but now I realize that what I knew before was just the tip of the iceberg.
So this is the resource of the Wolf Fang Brigade. No wonder so many people are trying so hard to get here.
This place is like a special forces soldier's dream palace, bringing together the best talents, the most advanced equipment and the most challenging tasks.
Chen Ran secretly made up his mind to cherish the opportunity in the Langya Brigade, work hard to improve himself, and absorb all the resources and knowledge here as much as possible.
He knew that only in this way could he truly become a top special forces soldier, like Qi Tongwei, who could handle all kinds of complex tasks with ease.
He turned to look at Qi Tongwei, his eyes full of determination and resolve.
Qi Tongwei seemed to notice his gaze and nodded slightly, as if encouraging him to move forward courageously.
This made Chen Ran even more motivated. He couldn't wait to get involved in the next mission, to prove his worth, and to catch up with the outstanding comrades ahead of him.
The scammer's first reaction after hanging up the phone was to curse: "Fuck, which idiot actually sold my phone and wanted to cheat it out of me?!"
His face flushed red, his eyes were full of anger, and he paced back and forth in the small room while cursing. His footsteps were so quick and heavy that it seemed as if he wanted to trample a hole in the floor.
After a while, he suddenly heard a "ding dong" sound from his cell phone, which was the notification sound of a new message.
He frowned and picked up the phone, and when he saw it was a MMS, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
In that era when a MMS message cost three yuan, it was simply a symbol of money.
For a fraudster like him, every penny has to be calculated, and a three-dollar MMS message can be considered a considerable expense.
The scammer kept muttering, "Who sent me this MMS? How extravagant!"
There was doubt and a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. His eyes were fixed on the phone screen. His finger hesitated for a moment, but finally clicked it.
The screen flashed first, and a white dot appeared. The white dot was in the center of the screen, lonely, but very dazzling.
Then, the screen instantly turned black, as dark as a bottomless black hole, causing his eyes to feel uncomfortable for a moment.
The next second, a God of Wealth jumped out. The image of the God of Wealth was very funny. He was wearing a golden ancient costume, with an exaggerated smile on his face and a big gold ingot in his hand.
The God of Wealth was jumping on the screen, as if showing off the gold ingot to him.
The scammer was a little confused by this sudden scene. His eyes followed the movements of the God of Wealth, and the expression on his face changed from confusion to curiosity.
He was thinking, who sent this MMS?
Could it be that one of my colleagues is doing something new?
Or do you have any new scams to share with him?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, and his eyes never left the phone screen.
