charlie wade also considered asking Nanako Ito for help, to directly report the problem to the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
However, upon closer reflection, if this is to be done, it must be done without leaving any trace; otherwise, once there is an information link, there is a possibility that someone will trace the source.
He also didn’t want to leave any risk for Nanako Ito.
After thinking for a long time, he said to Lin Wan’er (Alani) and the other two, “I’ve decided to start with those Japanese research team members and get them to expose their secrets to the Japanese.”
Lin Wan’er (Alani) asked, “Does Young Master have any specific ideas?”
charlie wade said, “These Japanese research team members have all been given the psychological suggestion that they must not reveal the actual situation to their superiors or family members in China. If we let them directly reveal the information, no matter what method they use, it will seem very deliberate in the eyes of that elder. So… I want their equipment to help us convey these messages.”
“equipment?”
Lin Wan’er (Alani) asked, “You mean vehicles or helicopters?”
charlie wade said, “It’s an icebreaker.”
charlie wade continued, “The icebreaker is the only piece of equipment they haven’t tampered with in terms of the information upload system. The information upload equipment for other vehicles and helicopters has been removed from their original machines and left in fixed positions to give the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology the illusion that it has never been moved.”
“However, since the icebreaker was not intended to move and was too large a target, they had no choice but to freeze it in place, so the Japanese side could keep track of its location.”
At this point, charlie wade analyzed, “I’m thinking that with all the intensive searching they’ve done these past few days, consuming so much diesel, the icebreaker’s fuel level must be decreasing rapidly. If the fuel level information is synchronized with the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology in real time, they will definitely notice the anomaly. So it’s highly likely that the ship’s engine room workers tampered with the fuel level detection. No matter what they did, I’ll find a way to restore it to normal. When the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology sees that the fuel level has decreased by thousands of tons in an instant, they will definitely realize something is wrong.”
Lin Wan’er (Alani) nodded and said, “The fuel consumption is their biggest bug. So many vehicles and ships are not moving in the eyes of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. Once they get the real fuel consumption, they will definitely find out that the most fuel-consuming snow vehicles must have been moving behind their backs. Moving equipment without authorization is already serious, but deliberately damaging equipment information is even worse. They will definitely find a way to investigate it.”
charlie wade said, “I’ll call Matsushita Heikichi on the research vessel.”
Matsushita Heikichi was resting in the captain’s cabin at the time. After the entire ship broke down, he basically had no real work and just spent his days eating and waiting to die.
Upon receiving charlie wade’s call, charlie wade’s mental suggestion immediately took effect. He became fully alert and pressed the answer button: “Hello, sir!”
charlie wade hummed in agreement and asked, “Do you include your remaining fuel in the data you report to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology every day?”
“Of course,” Matsushita Heikichi said. “There are electronic level sensors and physical sensing floats in the fuel tank. They calculate the data every minute and automatically upload it to the cloud, so the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology can check it at any time.”
charlie wade then asked, “Did you tamper with the fuel level information?”
“I did it,” Matsushita Heikichi said. “The master instructed me that we must not let the country detect anything unusual, so I arranged for several engine room workers to remove the electronic liquid level sensor and the corresponding error reporting module. The physical sensor float was also tampered with, and its height was artificially controlled to create the illusion that fuel consumption was very slow.”
charlie wade thought to himself that he had expected this, and then asked him, “What method did you use?”
Matsushita Heikichi said, “Inside the fuel tank, a small micro-controlled motor was suspended from the top of the fuel tank using a strong magnet. It was controlled by a microcontroller. The motor drove a reel, which slowly lowered the float to create false fuel level information.”
charlie wade asked him, “What would happen if the micro-control motor malfunctioned, causing the float to quickly return to its actual liquid level?”
Matsushita Heikichi said, “That’s terrifying. The system will think that we rapidly consumed thousands of tons of fuel in the few seconds or tens of seconds between the two data readings. This is obviously far beyond the fuel consumption of our icebreaker. Therefore, the system will immediately determine that it is a fuel leak, and a high-speed leak at that, which will trigger a level one emergency signal.”
“Okay.” charlie wade asked him, “If I need you to destroy this device, can you do it without anyone noticing?”
“It’s not difficult,” Matsushita Heikichi said. “I can change the microcontroller’s program parameters to make it rapidly reverse the gears and lower the float within a certain time period. After it’s done, I can simply rewrite the microcontroller to restore it. At that point, the data will be unrecoverable, and no one will know that I tampered with it.”
charlie wade smiled and said, “Okay, then wait for my message. Do it immediately if needed!”
