The next morning, Jin woke up early since he had set an alarm to go off at 6 am, got out of bed and went to the bedroom bathroom to wash his face.
Then he went out to the patio of the house and there he began a routine of cardio exercises to improve his physical condition, he planned to take 3 hours in the morning to do exercises and training, an hour and a half would be dedicated to cardio exercises and the other would be an hour and a half to practice MCMAP (Marine Corps Martial Arts Program) and his Boxing and Muay Thai techniques, I wish I could practice BJJ with someone but since he has no acquaintance he can only practice martial arts and combat sports with self-hypnosis and autosuggestion techniques.
All these exercises and training were what Griffin's combat instructors taught him based on beatings and torture, so for better or worse they remained etched in his mind.
One of the useful techniques that they taught him is about autosuggestion to fight with an imaginary enemy and thus be able to improve your abilities without the need to fight against someone physically, of course this technique is very advanced for the time since it is done in use of mental manipulation techniques through certain words that become your link with the subconscious part of the mind.
In this way, the imaginary enemy can cause you "real" damage but converted into headaches that arise every time an imaginary enemy connects a blow to your body.
After finishing his practices for the day, he went to the bathroom to shower, then he went to the kitchen to prepare a light breakfast, and then turned on his laptop to see if the fish had taken the bait…
He quickly turned on the computer, initialized the virtual machine and began to see if anyone had accessed the IP that he had placed in one of the images of dogs that he used to modify the website of the company CyberSec Solutions.
The IP was the address of an email server with a simple graphical interface to receive and send encrypted messages between two people, this type of tool is basic to communicate with someone while maintaining anonymity, that is because it had placed a small spoofing system to avoid the geolocation of the opposing party.
"Hmm, it seems they sent a message…", in the chat interface he could see that there was a message from someone from that company, the message said: Who are you?
*Hmm, you can consider me a 'cybersecurity expert', are you a person with a position important enough to make decisions in the company?* — Jin/Umbra
......…..
In a large building in the center of Tokyo, a group of 3 people were gathered in a large office, one of them was a man of about 32 or 35 years old who was sitting in front of a high-end computer, on the screen of the computer you could see the same interface that Jin was seeing on his own laptop.
"How is the restoration of our website going?", behind the man who was sitting and looking at the computer screen, there was a beautiful woman with glasses who appeared to be between 25 and 30 years old, she had a voluptuous body, a face with handsome features, long black hair and a height of about 160 cm.
The beautiful woman had her arms crossed on her chest, which made her G-cup breasts tighten a bit and due to her low-cut blouse, a part of the skin on her breasts began to stand out more.
"We were able to remove the images and put the original ones back, but... we haven't found the exploits that the hacker found…", the person who answered the beautiful woman's question was another man who was next to the sitting man. That other man had an average face, black hair with bangs, a slim build, and a height of 173 cm.
"It's funny, isn't it? A company dedicated to cybersecurity was hacked... how will our customers see us now?" The beautiful woman pronounced those words with a slightly annoyed expression.
"I told you, this person is a genius, I never thought that the web page that 15 people with a master's degree in computer science and cybersecurity made could be attacked so easily, we have faced alleged hackers before who turned out to be simple Script kids, for him, they could never get past our defenses, but now it seems that we are dealing with a real expert…", the person sitting in front of the computer opened his mouth to comment on those words, the man in question had straight hair, a complexion somewhat overweight and a height of 170 cm.
"Tanaka, do you want to stop praising a cybercriminal, do you think it's admirable to violate the laws of society?", the skinny man complained to his partner for commenting words of praise for the person who hacked them.
"I'm not praising him, Kazama, I'm just commenting on the facts, besides, I don't think he's a Black hat, in fact, if he were, he would have already encrypted the entire page or asked for a payment to return the stolen data…", the man named Tanaka answered his partner Kazama.
"Hmm? It seems I'm answering… a cybersecurity expert?" The three of them began to look at the screen on which the alleged hacker's message already appeared.
"Boss, it seems like he wants to talk to you…", Seeing Jin's message, Tanaka turned to look at the beautiful woman.
"… okay, let me talk to him…", the beautiful woman changed places with Tanaka and sat in front of the computer to write a new message.
*I have the ability to make decisions*
…
*That's good, let's cut to the chase, you know about ethical hacking right?* — Jin
…
*Are you telling me you're an ethical hacker?*
…
*That's right, otherwise I could have already done more damage to their systems and then charged them a lot of money, by the way, you are very beautiful when you frown…* — Jin
*You!!, Sigh~, what do you want?*, the beautiful woman was too surprised since the difficulty to access the webcam of the company computers was extremely complicated.
*Hmm, if you know what an ethical hacker does then you should know that I have discovered several exploits in your web architecture, which have given me access to your company data, as well as being able to invade part of your system's network local, what I want is simple, money, 35000 dollars (4953095.00 yen) to be exact… before you refuse, don't worry, I will not provide the exploits to anyone else, as I said I am an ethical hacker, so I will not harm them …* — Jin
"We couldn't locate him either, right?" Before replying to the message, the beautiful woman turned to see the two men behind her and asked them about the hacker's location.
" We couldn't, it seems that he is using a complex spoofing system…", the one who answered the question was the man named Kazama.
"Sigh~", the beautiful woman sighed in resignation and began to type a reply to Jin's message.
*Where do I transfer the money…*
......….
Jin observed how the 35,000 dollars he had requested as payment appeared in his e-wallet, 5 minutes later, he decided to send a new message, but this time the message was a text file that contained some things that might interest the person with what he was talking about.
He had felt a little sorry, so he decided to help them improve their web architecture and maybe get some extra profit if they know how to implement what he gave them.
At the end of the message, he also told him that if he needed a cybersecurity advisor, he could help them, but of course for an adequate payment for the services he provides.
After earning money 'for the first time in this new life', Jin decided that he would go buy a new cell phone at the mall, the cell phone he had was decent, but he required one with better and more powerful specifications, because the tool he had I was creating, I required a powerful mobile processor, as well as I required a lot of RAM so that the performance of the tool is excellent.
He decided that he would leave his house at 5:00 p.m., so there were 5 hours left before that time.
He moved to the kitchen and made himself a lunch, then went back to his room to work on his tool for at least four more hours. Thus, the sound of agile touches on the keyboard was the only thing that could be heard in Jin's room.
By the time he got up from his desk, it was already 4:20 p.m., so he stretched his body a bit and went to the bathroom to take a shower, after the shower he dressed in a sports shirt, ¾-length sports pants long and black tennis shoes.
Finishing dressing under the stairs, he reached the door and left the house.
As she walked down the sidewalk, he pulled out him headphones and started playing the music he had downloaded to him cell phone.
♩ ♪♫ Database, database, Just living in the database, wow, wow ♩ ♪♫
Jin began to hum the song that resounded in his ears, as he walked towards the mall, today was a good day…
