NEPTUNIA (Hackin Hubrets")

CHAPTER 218 RUXCON HACKER VILLAGE (3)

Nara immediately set up the laptop and dongles she was carrying, pulled out the USB data cable and connected the server device to the dongles that were already connected to her laptop. Nara's fingers type and write down the labels written on each of the server's interfaces on a piece of topology paper she holds. Nara noticed dozens of blue and yellow wires as well as gray ones hanging on the right and left side of the server rack. Nara sorted out the wires one by one and matched them with what was written on the server and on a piece of topological paper.

“ this here..... this here... and this here.... “ murmured Nara slowly.

byt3 who was still standing behind Nara looked at Nara's action stunned even to the point of opening her mouth.

“ this interface to this device... “ Nara murmured inwardly while looking around looking for another server device that she should connect with the server device in front of her.

Nara stood up and watched the cable tray that became the cable line.

“ there's no way I'm climbing a server and walking on that tray... “ Nara murmured inwardly.

Nara was silent for a moment at a loss as to what she was going to do, suddenly Nara remembered the one tool Xairy had once said. Nara immediately opened her backpack and pulled out a tool that was the size of her hand.

“ wear this for sure I can find the other end of the cable “ muttered Nara and smiled behind the black cloth covering her face.

byt3 noticed what Nara was doing.

“ what tool is that (what tool is it)? “ ask byt3 wonder.

Nara doesn't care about byt3 questions and keeps doing what she has to do, Nara attaches a probe tone checker to each cable whose end is not yet connected to any device she thinks is connected to her server device, but not a single cable he checked gave a sound signal to the cone ckecher probe

“ byt3... are you going to stay there until the competition over (byt3.... will you stay there until the competition is over)? “ greeting Nara makes byt3 aware and immediately look for the server for which he is responsible.

They are both busy with their respective responsibilities, until without them realizing one by one team member the other goes into the server room up to 10 people from different teams.

Nara still has not found the end of the cable she was looking for, Nara is silent right in front of a device that is in a dead condition.

“ not one end of cable I found.... what should I do “ Nara murmured in heart.

For six seconds Nara was silent thinking how to find the cable she meant in this wide server room, suddenly Nara remembered what she had already written on the topology sheet. Nara immediately took the sheet out of her abaya pocket and observed one by one the captions she wrote on each symbol of the device.

“ this device I have found... These three cables are already connected to the interface..... “ muttered Nara was silent while observing the writing she wrote but she did not understand what the writing meant.

Nara took out a handy talky that she put in her abaya pocket.

“ hva er galt med Neptunia... har du problemer (what's the matter Neptunia.... have you encountered any difficulties)? “ is not dbuq who answers but Starsiv.

“ Jeg tremer dbuq.. det er noe jeg ikke forstar (i need dbuq...... there is something I do not understand) “ replied Nara while observing the topology sheet.

“ fortell meg kanskje jeg kan hjelpe deg (say maybe I can help you) “ Starsiv said.

“ hva er OTB (what is OTB)? “ says Nara brief.

One second three seconds to six seconds no answer from starsiv.

“ starsiv.... er du der fortsatt (starsiv..... are you still there) “ calls Nara still did not get an answer from Morten.

As Nara waited for Morten's answer, a javex was heard.

“ Neptunia...hvilken bygning er du i (Neptunia..... Which building are you in)? “ javex voice calms Nara.

“ Jeg er ved Winston Tower i trettende etasje.... her en beskrivelse av OTB... hva er OTB (me at Winston tower 38th floor.... what is OTB)? “ said Nara while circulating the surrounding view.

“ en box som sprer fiberoptiske kabler ... optisk termineringsboks .... du bead se etter boksen i 1U storrelse jeg viste deg i klubbusets serverrom (it is a box that deploys fiber optic cable.... you have to find a 1U-sized box that I showed in the club house server room) “ javex explanation makes Nara remember the object that javex had shown when they were training at the house club after the Singapore competition.

“ ayaa...takk jeg begynner a forsta (oooo.... thanks I began to understand) “ said Nara with a happy voice because she began to understand how the shape of the topology she holds.

Nara steps back towards the server she first found and starts re-typing something, matching up with what she already wrote. Several times Nara was seen crossing out what she had written on the topology sheet and replacing it with the actual description.

Five minutes later Nara noticed what she had written on the topology sheet and smiled happily as she began to fully understand what she was looking for. Nara removed the transmitter tone checker and put it back into the bag along with the probe tone checker.

“ so I only need to find these two devices on the 41st floor and this one device here..... alright.... according to this description the cable length is approximately 100 meters...... means the device was more or less located in a radius of 10 to 15 meters from this device...the spirit of “ Nara murmured in his heart and circulated the view.

" 100 meters impossible UTP cable is definitely a single mode fiber optic cable..means jacket of yellow color fiber optic cable.... " muttered Nara while sorting out some yellow fiber optic cables.

Not only Nara who experienced something like this but Morten, dbuq and javex also experienced this. Other players have experienced the same thing, because in this competition all devices are on but the cables are still hanging which is not only one or two cables hanging but tens or even hundreds. Indeed, each device has its own label attached to the front side of the server device but it is only a 3-centimeter wide label in blue with black writing. After walking around for about 10 minutes, Nara finally found the device she was looking for.

“ Thank you to meet “ muttered Nara and immediately prepare his laptop.
