Near Euljiro, where the head office of the bank is located. The car stopped in front of the Hanok restaurant gate.

“Young master, we're here. ”

“You said the banker was here first, right? But you have another car. Who else is here? ”

I looked at the other sedan that was parked and asked. But I guess I didn't hear anything from President Kim either. He shrugged his shoulders and opened my door.

“I didn't get anything. ”

“Hmm. Really? You haven't eaten, have you? Would you like to stay alone? ”

A beautiful garden that opens as soon as you walk through the gate. It was a spectacular mix of green grass, colorful flowers and trees. Not to mention the artificial streams running along the edges.

“Huh. This way. Phew!”

And tables and chairs in the middle of the garden. This is why I saw the car and realized there were more people. The building itself had no other guests because it was a privately run restaurant.

“Hello, I'm Goji Hoon. ”

“Uh-huh. I know. I know, I'm Park Gi-ho, the head of the bank. Have a seat.”

There was already a table full of food. It's a nice day, eating out. I sat in a chair and looked at the man across the street.

“This is my second-in-command, who works in the National Guard. ”

A middle-aged man who gently bows his head to me at Park Gi-ho's words. I can feel the power of the name of the National Guard.

“Hello, I'm the chief character. I've heard a lot about you. You've been doing great lately. ”

“Shame on you. ”

I laughed and drank a glass of water. The staff came out and put the crimson meat on the table, and we talked and talked and talked and talked and talked and talked.

“I didn't know the banker had ties to the Secretary of State, by the way. I was surprised.”

“Haha. So did I. No, I thought he was dead because I haven't heard from him in years. One day I saw him working in the National Guard. ”

The banker's pleasant words burst into laughter. Both are running towards the end of the middle age. It's always fun to reminisce. I asked with a polite gesture.

“By the way, the fact that someone came out of the National Guard means they're also interested in the case. ”

In my words, the text nodded.

“It's happening all over the country simultaneously, and above all, cyber security is an important part of the government. Because of the criminal nature of Voice Phishing, we think it's going to get worse if we don't take root. ”

Quite accurately, he knew the nature of the case. Most of them are based overseas. And that the vast majority of victims were primarily subjected to personal information breaches. These two things were serious.

“If so, have you seen how your personal information has escaped from your bank? ”

“It's unclear yet, but it's allegedly hacked through an antivirus program. We've confirmed that the number of victims is about 3,000, and the location is Chinese foot. ”

“Three thousand? It's less than I thought.”

It was not one of the most popular banks in South Korea, but it had moderate public awareness and scale. But not 10,000. Thousands. He smiles and eats a single piece of meat.

“Surprisingly, we responded quickly that day. The problem is that the date that happened was about two months ago. ”

Ah, he's a low-casualty, mostly unemployed old man. I took care of my face while drinking water. This part. We'll see when the case is over.

“In two months, you'll have gone through all of China's spam and lenders. The phone calls the victims received came from the Philippines, so we have to assume it's spread there. ”

I nod positively as if the text is positive. A bank manager who wipes his bald hair with sweat at his side. He gently looked at me and picked up the meat.

“But I had to meet Mr. Ko Ji-hoon to take over the case, so I was thinking about it. Suddenly, it was fate. Haha.”

I put down the spoon and wiped my mouth. This is as far as conversation goes. Now we're talking about a full-scale investigation.

“So here's the thing. I think you'll find that I gave you a rough quote at that time. We would like you to split the deposit and create a fake account. I am familiar with the privacy settings. ”

I took Houn's words out and stopped. I don't think we can get through this without the head of the bank, but the National Guard can't. You don't just leave out the crazy words of leaving billions to a high school kid. Plus · · · ·.

“That's why you're here. Today.”

“That's right, I've heard from the bank manager as well. You're going to create virtual demographic information and scatter it abroad. I don't want to be a government official in Korea. I want to know if there's someone who can do it. ”

A self-confident character. You'd be surprised to know Houn's whereabouts. High school student, self-taught, cyber-walking genius. The direction was wrong, and Houn was definitely a talent of talent. I wish I could work at the National Guard later.

“I don't know who you're trying to do this with, but I think you should be bitten and join us. Money is money, and incidents are important. You should be with your country more than with fiction. ”

“That's not a bad offer. But there are a lot of people who are very attached to this case. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“You don't have to worry too much. Anyway, it's a pleasure to meet you on our side. I can't believe you're helping me. I'll catch them in no time. ”

The banker carefully asked me on my nugget.

“What about the money? · · ·. ”

“There's a minimum deposit of 500,000 won among the victims. More than 100,000 accounts. And a deposit, up to a minus account, would be enough for 200,000. ”

The text nods at my gaze. With 3,000 pieces of personal information, the victims were already spreading. 200,000 were overwhelming in response to the initial investigation. It's personal information anyway, it's a formula, so it doesn't matter.

“I am considering a deposit period of at least 3 months. Uh, do you want to get some interest? ”

Interest to pay when a negative account is opened. The banker shakes his hands as if they were hot.

“Oh, no. What's the interest on the demo account? Haha. It's all for the investigation. We have to cooperate.”

“I'm glad you said that. Finding another bank. Haha. I'm just kidding. Instead, the deposited amount is real and you can invest. ”

Right now, the head bank has to come out that way. Because of the cover-up of the spill. Moreover, if you deposit billions at once, it is also profitable.

“How long do you think it will take to create virtual personal information? I'm quick to get money. ”

“So are we. It's not just a sweat. Oh, by the way, how would you rate that? ”

“Please distribute them in various ways. You know, 50 in a row is kind of weird, right? When you're ready, let's get through the firewall and into some of it. Take it from China instead of actual customer information. You know what I mean? ”

Personal information containing the money is bait for them. Personal information that contains a negative number protects customer information.

“Raise your shield. ”

“That's right. It's a selling shield instead. What was it, 50 won per person? I don't think that's going to be long enough. ”

“Those guys, they spin it a dozen times if you take it out. Five hundred at a time. ”

He smiles and picks up his cell phone, and starts to contact someone. I'm pretty curious. I called Director Kim to dinner in the safe house.

“Chief Kim. Have you finished your meal? ”

“Yes, Young Master. ”

Chief Kim replies, covering his mouth. I think I haven't eaten enough yet, but I'm busy.

“Please wait for the car. ”

“I understand.”

The text message that finished contacting me told me.

“Virtual personal information will be processed by the government. There are so many of them, I don't think the police can handle them. ”

The phone number created for fishing will only be handled by the bank. Which means you won't be contacted unless it's from the outside. But if it is sold to China, it will end up with all sorts of illegal businesses.

“I can't handle it. It's usually difficult.”

“It looks like we'll be linking multiple numbers per phone. Let's pass through a generic loan shark, a spammer, and only hand over voice phishing to the police. On the other hand, I would like the rest of the acquisition information and the personal information generated to be given to us for ownership. ”

“Yeah, that's it. You must have a lot of work to do. ”

I don't know where to use it, but I don't want to know and I don't want to know. Is this how virtual people are born? When I got up from my seat, I got up along with the bank chairman and the text rail.

“Will you use a linked bank account when the case is closed? ”

“I think I'll just keep a few alive, given the circumstances. ”

“You can do as you please. It'll all be gone in three months anyway. Well, then, I'll have the money ready and sent out as soon as possible. Make sure you're ready, too. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

“Chief Character. Nice to meet you. I look forward to seeing you again. This is my number. ”

Characters without business cards. I gave him my business card instead.

“Please listen to the details later and finish your meal. The meat here is delicious. ”

I left you with a nuance about calculating and leaving. Chairman Kim, who will keep his mouth shut until he gets in the car. I think I just put it in my mouth because I'm going.

“Are you close? ”

“Police station. There's nowhere else I can go. Well said, please take care of it as soon as possible. Chief Kim.”

“Oh, I see. ”

“· · Buy some meat while you go and eat with your aunt. Oh, by the way, when are you planning your wedding? ”

Director Kim replied, swallowing what was in his mouth.

“I'm in a hurry. It took me a year and a half to prepare slowly. Instead, the date of the circumcision was set after the full moon. ”

“I see. I can't feel anything. ”

“Haha. Me too. ”

Director Kim turned the handle with a joyful smile. You look very happy for someone who doesn't feel real. I closed my eyes loosening my tie. Once you get into the office, you'll have to rest while you can.

* * *

“Where are the papers that were here? ”

“You said you were going to pay for it. ”

“What are you talking about? I'm missing the back of a police report. ”

“Youngest! You gave me a specific report on the suspects coming out of noodles, right? ”

“No, I've got it. ”

The investigation into catching voice phishing went crazy. Because additional victims came in during the process. It was a situation when I got into a fight, if I was close to the Berserkers, if I was close to the Berserkers, and if I was close to the Special Forces, I was transferred to the Special Forces.

Percussion

The blink mutters while pressing the space bar. Extra on-screen transportation.

“I think this guy and Seocho are the same. ”

“The report also narrowed down the error range, but it looks like they just switched the cannon cars. The license plate is different.”

“Place an APB on the vehicle and Montage at this number. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

I quickly struck the typewriter and looked at the opposite side of the office. Dozens of phones that were installed by the State Department. Voice phishing involving virtual personal information will be handed over to that phone. Blackouts noticed my gaze and asked.

“What's going on? ”

“Yes, I called three days ago. They breached the security wall to China. It's time to come in. ”

“I'm going to dust the phone. Luckily, the clowns aren't making much progress either. ”

Mongdu frowns, raising his head.

“Brother, stop communicating with you. ”

“Intelligence, Intelligence, you bastard. ”

“Let the National Guard do the Information War, and we are the Physical War. Physical Combat.”

We took the bait, and we kept doing what we were supposed to do. But it's not an ongoing incident, it's the addition of victims. We're not making much progress. It was then.

Jiaying, Jiaying, Jiaying!

A peculiar ringtone that suddenly rings in the office. We looked at the opposite side of the line at the same time. The second phone from the right is illuminating.

“That's a National Guard sensation. What a strange sound. ”

“I'll take it first. The youngest!”

At Mongdu's words, I stood up. The voice of a stranger as I took a breath while holding a handset.

[Hello, is that you, Mr. Hex?]

Name once · · · ·. It is a random combination of gender and syllables. I nodded and said yes.

“Yes, it is. Can I help you?”

[Sir, a cannon log has just come in. Can I talk to you now?]

I circled my team with my fingers. A sign that it's finally caught. I asked, acting surprised.

“Cannon logs? God, I've never made anything like that. Wh-where are you calling from? ”

Teammates rush in and bring their ears to the handset. And the overheard upside down answer. Blacks twisted my whole body with silence. I'm happy to die.

[I'm Inspector Ko Ji-hoon of the Cyber Investigation Unit of the XIAN Police Department.]

EP186. You took the bait. The end.
