death of hope

Chapter 366 "Corporate Warrior" (281) Cheers

Shaft is well-known in the hacker circle for his powerful software development and cracking capabilities.
The "Dandelion" Trojan horse virus he made is still raging on the Internet, and all anti-virus software is helpless. He always brags about it to his teammates.

The most famous one is the hacking of the website of the Federal Ministry of Defense, which made him a big celebrity in the circle. He was also interviewed by the media and appeared on entertainment shows. That's why he was targeted by the McMillan Group and included in the corporate fighter training plan. .

In contrast, this stylishly dressed otaku hacker Aurora really has nothing to show for her "record".
In addition to releasing a few pirated game links occasionally, it is to peek at the social account albums of celebrities and post some gossip posts on anonymous websites.

Aurora is an optimistic girl, she does not shy away from talking about her past,

She came from a bitter background and grew up in the waste station where her parents worked. When a rich girl of the same age was playing house with a doll, little Aurora had already taken a screwdriver and a board to disassemble and repair toys, and was proficient in driving a forklift excavator. , It can be regarded as self-taught "talent".

She has no money to go to school, and when she grows up, she makes a living by buying and selling scraps and repairing them. As for the hacker circle, she joined because she thought it was "cool and fun". Speaking of which, the girl seemed a little regretful,
Her career as a hacker resulted in a criminal record on her innocent file, and she was kicked out by her parents. Shaft told her that there was no need to regret it. It was better to go to jail than to pick up scrap iron at a garbage station. Talents.

Sigurdriefa felt that this was all nonsense, and advised her not to listen, but Aurora kept nodding, as if she was willing to believe even Shaft's nonsense.

Lynch didn't want to listen to Shaft's endless nonsense anymore, so he just said what he wanted,
When it comes to technology, the house girl will not feel sleepy immediately.

Aurora's expertise lies in the field of hardware, but only in old, outdated equipment,

After all, she has no money and no way to get in touch with new gadgets,
Due to her experience of growing up in a junkyard, she is very good at playing with old objects. The goods in this truck were all "scourered" from the junkyard.
Shaft always laughed at her for being a junkie, not a serious hacker at all, short and neither pretty nor smart, and nicknamed her "Little Transparent".

Lynch hurriedly told him to shut up, and he had to ask someone to help, but Aurora just covered her mouth and smiled, not taking it seriously at all.

Lynch opened the evidence box given to him by Officer Cody Douglas, which contained information collected by the murdered Internet celebrity anchor over the years.

Maybe it's some kind of nostalgic quirk, maybe it's just for secrecy, the hard drive in the box is a very old 7200 rpm disk, and what's more, it was broken by the insider of the police station.
Lynch paid a high price to find a lot of capable people, all of whom said they would not repair such old antiques, so he asked Shaft to find someone in the hacker circle where "talented people come out in large numbers".

Aurora picked up the hard drive and looked at the model, WD Western Digital DA001. "I'll fix this."

Shaking it again, listening for any abnormal noises inside, he said confidently, "No problem, it will be done soon, give me half an hour."

"Great!" Lynch was very happy when he heard that: "Don't be so anxious, leave it here with you, and I'll get it when it's repaired."

Aurora didn't seem to hear what he said clearly, and she was all focused on the hard drive. She sat down on the swivel chair, kicked her short legs skillfully, slid to the front of the workbench, and took it off the shelf. Stack tools, put on the electronic lens and start working.

"She can't listen to it now." Shaft spread her hands: "This little girl has obsessive-compulsive disorder. When she sees something broken, she must fix it quickly, especially this kind of old antiques and electronic waste, her favorite."

Aurora opened the hard disk sealing box, a pair of small hands were surprisingly nimble and quick. In 5 minutes, the circuit board, magnetic head, platter, electric motor, magnet, SATA interface, L-shaped power supply interface and other fine parts were removed. place on a cutting mat.

"Small problem, the circuit board is burned, I have the same model, just replace it."

Lynch didn't understand how she found the circuit board she wanted precisely from the piles of electronic waste. When he came back to his senses, Miss Aurora had already taken off the electronic lens and waved her hands. Make a V-sign gesture:
"Huh... you're done~ It only took a quarter of an hour."

"Amazing!" Lynch applauded involuntarily.

"Thank you~"

Shaft is extremely conceited about technology. He was horrified to find that he was too far behind in terms of hardware technology, and his arrogance was hit. However, he still refused to admit defeat to the woman, and said deliberately:
"He can repair some junk, who can't, she, she doesn't know anything about software development, such a broken disk must be full of bad sectors, you can ask her to try to repair the data!"

Sigurdriefa couldn't take it anymore and kicked Shaft.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"If you can't speak human words, don't speak!"

Soon, Shaft was slapped in the face. Aurora connected the hard drive to an equally old computer, using the SATA interface that has been outdated for decades, scanned more than 4000 bad sectors on the disk, and then repaired it as much as possible. data.

"Amazing! Pictures...video...and audio, more than half accessible! Thank you! This is very important to me!"

Lynch was so excited that he hugged Miss Aurora and kissed her.

Sigurdriefa immediately became jealous, she frowned and gritted her teeth, and the way she had to pretend to be smiling was too funny, Shaft saw it and couldn't breathe from laughing.

After finding such a master hermit, everything that happened next will come naturally,
There are also several older video tapes in the box. It is difficult to find a complete video recorder even at the scrap yard these days. You can only buy a ticket to go to the museum to see what is going on. Most likely it is a plastic model.

Aurora dug out a Sany brand multi-function video recorder from the bottom of a large cardboard box, blew the dirt, and made everyone in the room cough, which shows how old the stock is.

After the power was turned on, the video recorder made a loud noise, and a few cockroaches crawled out of it. Aurora found an antique LCD TV with a broken screen.Connect to the VCR with an old tri-color video-audio cable, plug in the tape, and say your prayers.

"What are you doing? Believe in Buddhism?" Shaft asked.

"If this thing breaks, there's no way to find a replacement part..."

The TV is still in a black screen with no signal, and the noise from the video recorder is like an industrial cutting machine. Just as everyone's hopes are gradually failing, snowflakes suddenly appear on the screen.

"It's done! It works!"

"There is a voice."

"Wow! It's so beefy!"

Shaft grabbed Aurora's hand and kissed it like a pig's trotter. The house girl's face was as red as a tomato, and she seemed to enjoy it very much.
