Chapter 3: Introductions
#4 of The hack book 2: source code hidden
Here is chapter 3, I will probably have a weekly upload schedule from now on, so enjoy!
"So are you just going to stand there? Or are you going to take a seat" Kit asked Chris.
"Um, I'll take a seat" Chris said as he took a seat beside a small table in the dark room, realising that he was a lot shorter than most of them being at 5 feet tall.
"We know that you know us, so why don't you tell us more about yourself?" Kate said.
"Oh ok, my name is Chris as you all know, but my actual name is Christopher Cailin Biton. My father was one of the people in the Israel cyber offence unit 8200, I've been able to hack into an organisation called ghost code" Chris said.
"Wait, you hacked ghost code!?" Jake asked surprised.
"Um, yes" Chris said nervously.
"That's impressive, Ghost Code is a very elite group of hackers since the Furon hack and have been very difficult to even contact, let alone hack" Trent said.
"Thanks I guess" Chris said as he did not know how to take to compliment.
"You seem quite nervous, are you ok?" Aron asked.
"Yeah, I've never really talked to people much" Chris said.
"That's ok, Kate barely talked when she first joined" Kit said, earning a swift jab in the ribs from Kate.
"Oh, I have a question if I may" Chris asked.
"Go ahead" Jake said.
"I was watching some ghost code members on a security camera and they found this," Chris said as he pulled out his phone to show a video of Grace and Evan probing the raspberry pi.
"Shit! I thought we wiped the place?!" Kit shouted.
"Quiet! There must have been a raspberry pi left behind, shouldn't be too much of an issue since we practically encrypted all of them" Kate said.
"I've got all of their programs decrypted and working" Grace said through the video.
"Nevermind" Kate said as she went quiet.
"We need to erase again" Trent said.
"We could, but they now have our tools and who knows what they could do with them" Jake said.
"Shit, wait you have access to their computers Chris, right?" Trent asked.
"Um, yes I have remote access to their computers" Chris said.
"Great, we should be able to track them down and be able to access more of their devices" Trent finished.
"I don't think you can do that" Chris said.
"Why not?" Trent asked.
"Because I won't let you have remote access, I don't really trust you guys" Chris said.
"What? Kit, I thought you said he was willing to join" Trent said.
"I did, he must've changed his mind" Kit said.
"So, you want to leave?" Trent asked.
"Yes, I am not quite comfortable messing with one of the most dangerous hackers since the Furon hack" Chris said.
"Oh, well I guess goodbye then" Trent said almost defeated.
"Bye" Chris said as he went into a toilet with one of their phones which he found out was rooted and installed spyware called Flexispy to check what they were doing and left the phone at the lost and found.
On his way to the lost and found area, he ran into Mike who was waiting for him.
"That was pretty impressive of you, to try and steal someone's phone and leave it in the lost and found with some spyware installed on it. But it's not good enough to fool me, could I have my phone back?" Mike asked.
"Oh, sorry" Chris said as he gave back the phone.
"Ah Flexispy I've also used this software, a staple of android spyware" Mike said as he managed to uninstall it and kept his phone.
"Anyway, could I have your Wickr me username? I know you have mine" Mike said as Chris told him his username for Mike to send him a message which he received.
"Great I'll message you later, I've got to go now, bye!" Mike said as he and Chris left the shopping mall with Chris wondering why that tiger would want his wickr username even though he said he was leaving.
Chris arrived home heading for his room and booting Kali Linux on his computer to check what Ghost Code was doing.
"Do we really need to contact madam corrupter?" Grace asked.
"Do you want to have your life torn down piece by piece?" Hasle asked.
"I will go see her" Grace said as she went through door 443. Chris tried to find another camera in the network for that room but found no cameras that was for that room. Chris them tried to listen in on the conversation through her phone which Chris was able to hack using an old stagefright exploit.
"Do we have root access to their Bitcoin server?" A woman asked.
"Not yet" Grace said.
"And what did we say about having to keep your end of the deal?" The woman asked.
"That we must be quick and not test your patience" Grace said nervously.
"Good, now run along, my patience is beginning to wear thin" the woman said.
"Yes madam" Grace said as she went out the door and became visible to the security cameras.
"Hold on, give me your phone" Hasle said.
"Here why?" Grace asked as Hasled broke her phone in his hands like a toothpick.
"Why the hell did you do that?!" Grace shouted.
"Can't be too careful" Hasle said as they walked out of the building.
"Shit" Chris said as he stopped recording the audio along with the video and compressed them to get smaller file size.
Chris then messaged Mike on wickr and sent him the video and audio files.
Mike) thanks Chris, I'll let the rest of them know
Ok, but be careful(Chris
Chris didn't know why he told Mike to be careful but ignored the though of it.
Chris then tried to sleep, and like his usual insomniac self, couldn't. He sighed and then tried to think of things that would call his mind down. He started to think of finally finishing that game he tried to code on his computer which he never touched but didn't have the heart to delete. Then he started to think about Mike, how he smiled when Chris gave him back his phone, that he was still nice to him despite leaving tsociety right when he joined.
'Oh god I have a crush on him' Chris realized as he couldn't get the image of Mike out of his head. He then tried to think of ways to hack other members of Ghost Code, but was only able to see an image of him cuddling with Mike and falling asleep in eachother's arms,. This strangely was able to put Chris to sleep at around 2 a.m. which is earlier than his usual timing which was 4 a.m.
Chris woke up the next morning and checked his phone. While looking through the news he saw a video on Vimeo.
"Hello Ghost Code, we saw your video and we are very aware of the war you just waged. We destroyed Furon and we will not back down from the truth. The T in tsociety stands for truth, which is something that we will reveal no matter what you do. To prove this we have done a little research and found someone by the nickname of 'madam corrupterer' who is the person in charge of Ghost Code. The location of their headquarters is in the link in the description below" the voice in the video said. Chris checked the link in the description which was the location he was able to trace them down to.
Chris then checked Evan's phone for any more info and found out that he made a transaction using a cryptocurrency called XRP.
'Wait, they use a cryptocurrency for all of their transactions' Chris realized as the prices of a plan started to arrange itself in his head. He then figured a way that could take out Ghost Code which he decided to tell Mike after school ended.
