Chapter 2481

“What are you trying to say then?”

Snow looked at Assange’s curious face and smiled confidently as he said, “Of course, I will continue to lurk in the intelligence agency and get more information about this plan. After that, we will wait for the opportunity…”

“You don’t really think that just based on the few videos we have now, we can accuse the intelligence agency of anything, right?”

“Hell, I still don’t know the name of this surveillance plan… Without details of the complete plan, the intelligence agency can blame this on the individual members. In that case, we will not be able to achieve our goals at all. Either we don’t do it or we uproot this damn plan.”

Jasper listened to Snow’s impassioned speech and silently praised it. He was worthy of being called the ruthless man who would almost single-handedly confront the entire United States intelligence agency in the future.

He could see the big picture indeed.

Assange fell silent after hearing Snow’s speech. He seemed to have something to say.

Assange thought for a while but was still a little unwilling to be suppressed by Snow, so he continued to ask, not content with having a more subservient role, “Then what does this have to do with us not releasing these videos? It’s good to cause them a little pain.”

Snow looked at him like he was looking at an idiot and said coldly, “Are you sure that we won’t be alerting others by publishing these videos now?”

“Not only will your actions not cause a direct loss to the agency, it will even allow them to strengthen the security of the entire plan. This plan is so tight now that I can’t find much information. If you do this and© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

they strengthen the entire protection and confidentiality measures, it will take months or even years for me to find out the information about this plan!”

Snow was so domineering now that he made Assange, who was originally arrogant and proud, look like an elementary school student being scolded.

“Then, what should we do with the secret keys and videos we have?”

Snow laughed and said, “We’ll release them, of course.”

Hearing this, Assange was dumbfounded.

After a pause he asked, “Didn’t you just say we have to keep these a secret so we don’t alert the others?”

Snow smiled and said, “I’m not asking you to release them all. Just release a few. Although I’m sure we’re clean, I don’t know if they have any back-ups. Furthermore, a counter-surveillance plan is currently underway. They will be even more suspicious if they don’t get anything from Qari…”

“So, we might as well release these a little earlier, and at the same time, we can also provide some cover for Laine… While we’re at it, we can make some extra money.”

When Snow said the last sentence, a smile appeared on his face before added, “We can’t get nothing after working hard for a long time, right? It will be such a loss.”

Assange also said excitedly, “Yes, we still have to take the opportunity to make some money. My visits to my decryption website has increased significantly recently, so it is time to add more servers… With this money, I can make a big upgrade to the website.”

“Decryption website?” Snow’s interest was piqued.

He had just listened to Assange talking about how he cracked various government databases as easy as pie. At that time, he was curious about how Assange would deal with this information in the future.

Now, it seemed that he had put them all on the decryption website.

Assange had the opportunity to show off in front of others, so he naturally would not let it pass easily. Therefore, he started talking about it.

Snow would nod frequently as Assange talked, obviously also very interested.

In the end, Assange conveyed, albeit incompletely, “Regrettably, our financial resources are limited, and we are reliant on donations to sustain our income. Consequently, we cannot expand our operations at this time…”

Jagoan, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, “Actually, I have a plan that can solve your financial problem…”
