As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 247 Relics (rewards and updates!)

"Charles Brown, 32, English.

Director of Information Security at Bloomsbury Publishing, Harry Potter fanatic.

Someone once paid tens of thousands of pounds for the first edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Three days ago, he took a half-month vacation and claimed to be unwell.

No trace of him was found at his home or at the hospital. "

After combining all the information, Daniel knew that he must be right.

"Bertie, you did a great job, so it should be him.

Now everyone take the task separately.

First of all, part of us will go to Bloomsbury Publishing House to get Charles' fingerprints, preferably with a photo of his hand, for comparison with the hand in the video.

In addition, it is necessary to investigate and record his related deeds in the publishing house, and prepare a personal portrait of him.

Then another group of people went to FB to retrieve his personal chat records.

For all the rest, what we have to do is find him and bring him back.

Go to Vodafone to call the location where the mobile phone number he used appeared, accurate to the street. "

After everyone assigns tasks, Daniel and Bertie need to go to FB to retrieve Charles' chat records.

On the way to Fitzrovia near Oxford Street, which is the new headquarters of FB in London, Daniel said:

"Bertie, you did a great job this time, if you hadn't found this entry point, we don't know how long it would have taken us to determine Charles' true identity.

The other party is an information security supervisor, so he is extremely vigilant.

He must have thought that others would not be able to guess the meaning of the ID, it was just the reverse order of 1 to 10 and the number 500, and very few people knew the meaning.

How did you connect numbers to Harry Potter? "

Bod showed a sad look: "Because I also had a first edition of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"

The last documented auction I just told you about was the "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in my hand.

So I have a certain sensitivity to this number. "

Daniel seemed to be able to see the sadness of the other party: "If you are reluctant, why sell it?"

Bod sighed, "Because it's my mother's relic.

I have three other sisters who are all up for sale and I have no say.

My mother passed away 20 years ago, and nobody realized the value of that Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

I often read it when I was young, and later I heard from my father that it was the first edition of Harry Potter.

Then find someone to identify and confirm that it is genuine.

People from the auction house ran to my house every day, saying that this was a gift from my mother.

Selling this book at auction is a way to honor my mother, who would love to see that her legacy can help us.

Finally, in that Harry Potter-themed auction, the first edition of Harry Potter left by the mother was auctioned as the finale.

I couldn't understand it, so I didn't go back to South Derbyshire for Christmas for several years.

Oh, forgot to mention, the last book fetched £[-] at auction. "

Daniel comforted: "I seem to have seen this story in the news, no wonder you have been spending Christmas in London these years.

Alas, on the other hand, maybe your mother did hope that the relics she left behind can help you.

After all, forty thousand pounds is not a small amount of money. "

Bod looked up at the roof, "Maybe.

I couldn't stop this from happening, and even hated my family because of it.

It's just that I don't want my mother's belongings to be auctioned off.

Maybe it's because I don't lack money, so I feel that others should not give up something for money.

Forget it, this is also one of the legacy my mother left me, being able to find Charles. "

Daniel saw that the other party's mood was a little higher and said:

"I'm 90.00% sure Charles is the Mr X who posted on FB.

What we have to do now is to turn 90.00% sure into [-]%, and then find out where others are. "

The real arrest does not rely on advanced network technology.

When both parties are fully focused on defense, especially when the target is a professional technical individual or team, and there is no visual information, the possibility of finding the other party purely by network backtracking technology is basically zero.

But criminal investigation and espionage methods can narrow the scope infinitely, and no matter how skilled hackers are, they will leave traces.

As long as there is a logical connection, it must be grasped.

Finding people in reality is a process of narrowing the scope.

The reason why this task is difficult is because of time, too little time.

"Buck, do you know that I seem to have discovered a trace of magic recently."

"Again, I have heard you say how many times you have discovered traces of magic, and which one has been realized?"

"This time it's true, I seem to have found a little feeling, just wait, I will surprise you in a few days."

"Hehe, although I am also very fanatical about it, I am not able to afford an observatory to mine magic coins for me like Zheng from Huaguo."

Now China Zheng has become Zheng Li's code name. If China and Zheng are linked together abroad, everyone will know that it refers to Zheng Li.

This trend became more popular after Zheng Li declared to be a mage.

"No, it doesn't need a magic brain, Merlin is most likely a scam.

Merlin's claim that magic can only be possessed by using a magic brain is false. "

"Is the magic brain fake? Is the news released by Apple and Kechuang biological fake? Is Zheng Cheng a mage also fake?
I get the feeling that you've been a little crazy lately. "

"No, I'm not saying that the magic coin they dug up is fake, nor is Zheng Li aware that it's fake.

It means that it does not necessarily need a magic brain, and it is possible that human beings are born with the ability to release it.

It's just that we didn't discover and dig. "

Daniel confirmed this again after flipping through the other party's chat records.

And I have a deeper understanding of Charles' vigilance. In the chats with friends, the other party did not directly say magic, but used it to refer to it.

So even if they retrieved chat records in London where magic-related words frequently appeared on whatsapp, they couldn't dig out Charles.

Fortunately, the other party kept a secret, and no matter how careful he was, his FB ID showed his flaws.

"Daniel, we went to Bloomsbury and got Charles' fingerprints.

Then after matching the fingerprint with the finger in the video, the matching degree of the fingerprint exceeds 50.00%. "

Due to the limited resolution of the video, some information will be lost if the finger in the video is turned into a picture for comparison.

So 50.00% plus all the existing evidence, can already be handed over to the top.

After the real identity is dug out, finding someone is a piece of cake.

　Well, the reward I owed last time will be added.

　　In addition, if there are complaints, I want to say that what I wrote originally belonged to the changes that magic brought to Blue Star society, and Zheng Li is more like Blue Star's gold finger.

　　Restricted by 404 beasts, many things cannot be written.

　　I really don't admit that I'm a sucker. Whether it's the setting of the plot or the details, I have worked hard.

　　It can be said that my writing is poor or slow, it doesn't matter, my level is indeed limited, but the author is really not good at it.

　　You even think that I have to work harder on the plot of the water.
