Chapter 43: Assessment (6)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wesley came and went in a hurry and then went straight home. How to get to the top of the building was also a problem. Wesley began to organize his equipment.

He used a pair of strong suction cups to climb the building, a flight suit, and a low-altitude parachute. He could not bring a large weapon. He once again decided to use a Beretta 92F pistol with a silencer. The decoding equipment was more complete. Now, it depended on what the other party used to open the safe. This was unknown.

After packing up, Wesley started the Chevy Suburban again and drove around the building. Then he stopped two blocks away and waited for night to fall.

It was still midnight when Wesley drove to the side of the building. There was no surveillance system here. He changed into a flight suit and carried a parachute. Other equipment was loaded into a backpack and carried in front of him. Then he began to climb the building with a suction cup. The building had a total of 32 floors and a height of more than 100 meters.

First, a suction cup was fixed. There was an exhaust button and an air intake button on the suction cup. After pressing it against the glass a few times, the air was emptied and the suction cup directly sucked the glass firmly. Then, the other hand held the suction cup and went up again. Then, it stuck to the glass and repeated this.

“Phew…” One word was tired, and two words were very tired. Wesley climbed for twenty minutes to reach the rooftop. He really did not want to do it again. Agents were not human.

He did not use the safety rope because there was no place to hang it. He could only rely on two suction cups to climb up. Fortunately, his physique was strong. Otherwise, it would really be difficult to complete. The movies were all lies.

After resting for a while, he brought his equipment to the vent and removed the partition of the vent. Then, he climbed in and replaced the partition. Then, he pushed his feet and hands against the sides and slid down bit by bit until he reached a horizontal ventilation channel.

“Apple, mark the route.” Wesley lay down and began to crawl through the ventilation duct. He took the backpack off his chest and pushed it forward in front of him. Nothing happened along the way. Wesley went directly to the financial company on the sixteenth floor. He was not in a hurry to go down, but he was still wandering in the ventilation duct.

The surveillance below was everywhere, so Wesley could only look for a suitable location. Finally, he jumped down in an office that must have been a high-level office. There was no surveillance equipment in it. Wesley entered and began to look around.

The office belonged to the investment director, but there were no secrets here. Wesley turned on the computer, but there was an advanced firewall that Apple could not break through, so Wesley had to close it. He then came to the door and looked out through the glass in the door. “There are blind spots. Not bad.”

Wesley opened the door and came out. He leaned against the wall and moved around, relying on blind spots. Finally, he came under a surveillance camera. Then he took out a S.H.I.E.L.D. signal interceptor and connected the two signal wires on it to the data wires behind the camera. Then he turned on the cracking system.

Apple had never downloaded such a cracking system. Because it belonged to S.H.I.E.L.D., Wesley had been careful to use it. Apple’s existence was the biggest secret. It wasn’t much, but if it became known, Wesley was in danger of being dissected.

He entered the other party’s surveillance system. SHIELD’s equipment was indeed powerful. Wesley took down the decryption device and then put his finger on it. Apple began to tamper with the video content and replay the past images.

“You have half an hour. Later, we need to change these back,” Apple said. Wesley didn’t waste any time and immediately began the search. There are no security guards on duty here, only the security guards of the building itself patrol outside, and there is only a surveillance system inside at night. Apple can only modify the image for half an hour. Any more and there will be flaws. Wesley seized the time to start moving around.

The financial company was wholly owned, and the general manager’s office should be a key location. He walked straight in and found a safe.

“It’s another fingerprint, and there’s a password at the same time.” Wesley took out a device the size of a mobile phone and pressed it against the password plate. A green light scattered out, and then a fingerprint appeared on the screen of the device. The four keys with the most fingerprints on the password plate began to be analyzed. Through the depth and position of the fingerprint, the order in which it was pressed. This thing had appeared in Captain America 2 and was used by the Black Widow. Wesley had always felt that it was amazing.

The old method was to make a silicone fingerprint film, then press the code and the safe opened, and Wesley asked Apple to record the location of everything. Then he began to record the contents of these things, some financial information, financial investment plans, records of capital transfers, profits and losses, and at the same time there was a special ledger. The records on it did not match, but Wesley still recorded it. This required a special interpretation, but it had nothing to do with him.

After recording everything, Wesley put everything back according to location and left the place. He went from the new camera to the wire side of the camera and restored the image to normal before entering the ventilation duct again.

After climbing back to the roof and securing the partition again, Wesley breathed a sigh of relief. “I’m so tired. Agents are indeed different from assassins, and the intensity of the labor is different,” Wesley complained.

“But I feel that you like it. That’s how your brain waves react.”

“Well, it’s exciting, isn’t it?” Wesley packed his things and jumped straight off the roof. His heart began to race and everything slowed down.

At more than a hundred meters, there was no room to glide. Wesley opened the parachute and began to drift toward his car. Everything around him slowed down. Wesley could see everything very clearly. After landing, his heart returned to normal. He gathered up the parachute, threw it into the backseat, and drove away.

Wesley returned home and asked Apple to put all the records into the computer. Then he called Phil. “I got something, but I can’t interpret it. I need a special way to do it. I’ll send it to you now. Do as you see fit.”

“Okay, send it over. The mission was completed well. Your Level 3 Special Agent qualification has been approved and is under my management. I think the upgrade will be very fast.”

“I hope so. This mission almost threatened Carlos’s silence. I think I can avoid it in the future.”

“Yes, you will. You will fly a lot in the future.” After hanging up, Wesley put the equipment back into the armory and went to the kitchen.

“You’re back?” Carlos came out.

“Yes, isn’t the room soundproof?” Wesley took out some vegetables, ham and bread slices, and milk.

“I haven’t slept yet. I’m talking to Alice on the phone. We’re developing very fast. Let me heat up the milk for you. It’s cold and doesn’t taste good.”
