I was a rookie reporter in the 00s

Chen Ming's residence is an apartment located in the city center with simple and modern decoration.

They walked into Chen Ming's study and saw a laptop on the desk, with some papers and notebooks scattered around. Fu Siyuan quickly walked to the computer, turned it on, and Chen Ming's work interface immediately appeared on the screen.

He quickly browsed through the files, searching for clues related to the chip. Suddenly, a folder named "Superpower Control" caught his eye. Fu Siyuan was delighted, knowing that this might be what they were looking for.

He double-clicked the folder to open it, revealing various experimental data and notes, detailing the chip's manufacturing process and control principles. Fu Siyuan read carefully, gradually understanding the chip's secrets.

It turns out that Chen Ming has been researching a chip that can control the consciousness of people with special abilities. He hopes to use this chip to control them. And that mysterious organization is his partner. They provide financial and technical support to help Chen Ming complete this research.

Fu Siyuan realized that the scale of this conspiracy was much larger than they had imagined. He copied the information to a mobile hard drive, knowing that they had to make this information public as soon as possible to stop the conspiracy.

At this moment, there was a sudden and urgent knock on the door. Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing were startled. They looked at each other, and their hearts were full of vigilance.

Fu Siyuan slowly walked towards the door, constantly reminding himself to be careful. He looked out through the peephole and saw a familiar figure standing outside - Li Wei.

He immediately opened the door, and Li Wei hurried in, looking a little anxious: "Are you okay?"

Fu Siyuan nodded: "We are fine, why are you here?"

Li Wei sighed. "I've been waiting for you outside, and I just noticed something strange. It seems that members of that mysterious organization are looking for you. I was worried that you might be in danger, so I rushed over to check on you."

Fu Siyuan felt warm in his heart, knowing that Li Wei had always cared about them. He told Li Wei the secret of the chip, knowing that they needed more help to uncover the truth of this conspiracy.

After hearing this, Li Wei's expression became serious. "This conspiracy is indeed too big. We must act quickly. I have a friend who is a master hacker. Perhaps he can help us analyze the chip data."

Fu Siyuan nodded, his heart filled with hope: "Okay, let's go find him right away."

They arrived at Li Wei's friend's house, a small cottage on the outskirts of the city, surrounded by dense woods and very secluded. The house was simply furnished, but filled with various electronic equipment, like a small laboratory.

Li Wei's friend, A Fei, was a young hacker who sat in front of his computer, typing away intently. Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing handed him the chip data, their hearts filled with anticipation.

Ah Fei took the data and observed it carefully: "This chip is indeed very special. It seems to be able to establish some kind of connection with the human brain, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling people."

Fu Siyuan realized the danger of this chip and asked, "Is there any way to crack it?"

Ah Fei pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe there is a way. I need some time to analyze the data and find the weakness of the chip."

Fu Siyuan nodded, his heart filled with gratitude: "Please, we'll wait for your news."

Ah Fei nodded and immediately got back to work. Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing waited on the side, constantly thinking about their next plan.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the house. Fu Siyuan was startled and immediately stood up, looking out the window vigilantly, only to see several men in black walking towards the hut.

"They are coming." Fu Siyuan said in a low voice.

Zhang Wanqing and Li Wei also immediately prepared to respond. They must find the weakness of the chip as soon as possible to prevent the implementation of this conspiracy.

The men in black rushed into the hut, and Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing quickly met them. With their agility and tacit coordination, they engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black. Fists and kicks flew, swords flashed, and the entire hut seemed to have turned into a battlefield.

Fu Siyuan was filled with anger and determination. He knew he had to protect the chip data in order to uncover the truth of the conspiracy. He waved his fists and started a life-and-death struggle with the man in black.

At this moment, Ah Fei suddenly stood up from the computer with a note in his hand: "I found the weakness of the chip!"

Fu Siyuan was delighted, knowing this was their chance to strike back. He quickly took the note and shouted, "Quick, let's strike back!"

They tied up the man in black, and Fu Siyuan immediately copied the data from the chip to a mobile hard drive. He knew in his heart that they had to make this information public as soon as possible to prevent the conspiracy from continuing.

"What should we do next?" Zhang Wanqing asked.

"Let's go look for Chen Ming's belongings now. They must contain the secret of the chip," said Li Wei.

Li Wei notified the police to come and take the men in black away. Then Li Wei and the police went back to the police station to interrogate the men in black.

Zhang Wanqing and Fu Siyuan stayed at Chen Ming's house and began to search the apartment carefully, leaving no drawer or corner unsearched.

Fu Siyuan walked into Chen Ming's bedroom and saw some photos and books on the bedside table. He picked up a photo at random. It was a photo of Chen Ming and several friends. Everyone's face was filled with smiles, as if telling of the happy times in the past.

Suddenly, his fingers touched a hard object, and he was delighted. He carefully took it out and saw that it was a small USB flash drive with a line of tiny words engraved on the shell: "Superpower Project".

"Zhang Wanqing, come and see!" Fu Siyuan shouted excitedly.

Zhang Wanqing rushed over upon hearing the noise. Seeing the writing on the USB drive, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This should be what we are looking for."

Fu Siyuan nodded, his heart filled with anticipation. He inserted the USB drive into his computer, and Chen Ming's work interface immediately appeared on the screen. He quickly browsed through the files, searching for clues related to the chip.

At this moment, an encrypted file suddenly popped up on the computer screen and required a password to open.

"Could it be Chen Ming's birthday?" Zhang Wanqing asked tentatively.

Fu Siyuan nodded, agreeing that this was a very likely possibility. He entered Chen Ming's birthday, and a line of text appeared on the screen: "Wrong password, please re-enter."

Fu Siyuan's heart sank. He knew the password to this file must be extremely complex. He continued to try various possible passwords, but still couldn't open the file. At this moment, he suddenly remembered a sentence Chen Ming had said before his death: "Only those who truly understand me can solve this mystery."

Fu Siyuan's heart skipped a beat. He knew the code must be related to Chen Ming's personal experience. He carefully recalled every detail of Chen Ming's life, and various images kept flashing through his mind. Suddenly, he remembered something Chen Ming once said: "When I was a child, my favorite place to go was that small park. There was an old locust tree there, and it was my best friend."

Fu Siyuan was delighted, knowing that the password must be related to the small park. He quickly entered "Old Sophora japonica tree" and saw a line of words appear on the screen: "Password correct, welcome in."

He opened the file and saw some experimental data and notes, which described in detail the chip manufacturing process and control principles.

Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing arrived at Li Wei's residence with the information on the USB drive. Li Wei was waiting for them in the living room, looking a little anxious. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Fu Siyuan and Zhang Wanqing returned safely.

"Have you found any clues?" Li Wei asked with a hint of anticipation in his tone.

Fu Siyuan nodded and handed the information in the USB drive to Li Wei: "Yes, we found clues in Chen Ming's belongings."

Li Wei took the information and read it carefully, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes: "The scale of this conspiracy is so large. Chen Ming has actually been researching chips to control people with special abilities."

Fu Siyuan sighed, feeling helpless. “Yes, we must make this information public as soon as possible to prevent the implementation of this conspiracy.”
