Although Morocco may not be large in size, it is certainly not small for hundreds of people.
Victor‘s focus was largely consumed by the so-called clues in Casablanca, making it nearly impossible for the remaining individuals to locate the food factory chosen by Jack in a short period of time.
That night, Jack began to evacuate the cavalry guards, dead soldiers, and their families in batches, following the established plan.
During the day, the food factory appeared deserted, but under the cover of night, figures clad in black robes departed in an orderly manner, resembling a forced march, and boarded vehicles that had been prepared a kilometer away.
Subsequently, these vehicles quietly transported people to the fishing port in the northeast.
The management of Morocco’s northeast coastline has always been lax, with plenty of fishing boats present, making it difficult for the military and anti-smuggling units to monitor. Moreover, since most local specialties in Morocco are minerals, which have very low unit values and only yield profits in large quantities, there is an unspoken agreement along the northeast coastline to mostly manage entries rather than exits.
With little to export, they were not overly concerned about smuggling, focusing all their efforts on managing incoming goods.
The evacuation route that Jack arranged perfectly aligned with the authorities’ usual practices.
When fishing boats set sail, even if they happened to pass by an anti-smuggling vessel, those in charge wouldn’t give them a second glance. However, when ships entered the port, inspections would randomly occur to check for any smuggled goods.
One after another, boats filled with people slipped away from the Moroccan fishing port, connecting with a cargo ship that was timely along their route.
The strong dead soldiers, cavalry guards, and Dragon Temple warriors, along with the elderly, women, and children, boarded the cargo ship without causing it to halt. Thus, even if members of the Warriors Den inspected all the cargo ships passing by, these ships maintained their speed and never slowed down or stopped, leaving no room for suspicion.
Through this efficient operation, one-fifth of the people were successfully evacuated in one night. Still, Jack was not satisfied, favonovel.com hoped to increase the speed, so favonovel.com worked alongside Wesley Drake and Chance Yarrow to reorganize and optimize the entire process for greater efficiency.
By the second night, a quarter of the total number of individuals had been successfully sent away.
Though they could not evacuate the remaining group in a single night, two nights would be more than sufficient. At that point, the task force from the Right Army Governor’s Office had barely even conducted checks within a ten-kilometer radius of Duke Mining.
At this rate, it would take them at least two months to inspect the food factory.
***
As the fourth night approached, Jack was prepared to board all the remaining individuals according to the plan.
Simultaneously, favonovel.com received an early warning message from AI and promptly reported to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, AI has discovered something in Naples.”
Charlie inquired, “What did you find?”
Jack explained, “Miss Decker mentioned that the headquarters of the Right Army Governor’s Office is in Naples. I specifically asked AI to monitor any information coming from that area. Conveniently, our vending machines also cover Naples Airport…”
“AI analyzed the daily passenger flow at the airport by counting heads and matching faces to remove duplicates. It turns out that the passenger flow in Naples over the past two days has significantly risen compared to the previous two days, even though it was a weekday. Daily passenger numbers ranged from about 26,000 to 28,000 before, and now its between 29,000 and 30,000.”
Charlie frowned, “The increase is less than five percentage points; it doesn‘t seem outrageous at a glance. Are there any other clues?”
Jack replied, “Yes. While the overall passenger flow saw only a small increase, the flow heading to Spain surged by 60%! On normal weekdays, there were only around 700 to 800 passengers flying to Spain daily, but recently, this number has skyrocketed to over 1,000.”
“Oh?” Charlie perked up, smiling as favonovel.com asked, “How did AI come to this conclusion? Did it back into Naples Airport’s information?”
Jack chuckled, “No, I wouldn’t let it do that recklessly. Although AI has powerful computing capabilities, computing power alone can’t replace expertise. It can create videos that are indistinguishable from real ones, but it can’t necessarily train itself to be the best hacker. The civil aviation system is well-protected, primarily by top-tier internet security companies. If we attempted a hack, it could lead to clues being left behind, making us vulnerable.”
Jack continued, “AI‘s method might seem simplistic, we have enough vending machines with wide-angle cameras that cover a large range, almost encompassing every boarding gate at Naples Airport. By simply capturing images of the information boards at these gates, AI can accurately identify which flights are departing and their destinations. Because we recorded everything, AI could also track the passenger flow for each city and country. Yesterday and today, every single flight from Naples to Spain was fully booked, with tickets sold out or even oversold, including two private jets that took off for Seville, Spain.”
Charlie mused, “The sudden spike in passengers going to Spain is quite unusual. Is it possible that the Right Army Governor’s Office plans to relocate?”
“Very likely,” Jack suggested. “Additionally, we analyzed the facial data of all passengers heading to Spain. Previously, about 70% of passengers traveling from Naples to Spain were European and American, mainly Caucasians. In the last two days, however, the number of people with Asian features increased to 60%, indicating that most of the new travelers to Spain are of Asian descent. This further supports your earlier theory that the Right Army Governor’s Office is on the move, and their destination is likely Spain!”
Charlie couldn’t help but exclaim, “AI’s capabilities are remarkable in this regard! Simply analyzing videos yields so much information and uncovers anomalies. They’re Incredibly useful.”
Jack smiled and confirmed, “It’s powerful thanks to its unparalleled computing prowess. If we allow it to perform calculations, it could surpass the combined efforts of millions doing math on handheld devices at once. When analyzing videos and surveillance material, it’s akin to distributing watchful eyes across a hundred million people, enhancing efficiency and precision beyond human capability.”
Charlie nodded, a smile on his face, “Honestly, you should continue to train it diligently, Inspector Lee. Once it develops criminal investigation awareness, it will identify even more problems. With control over all key hubs worldwide, members of the Warriors Den will find no place to hide!”
At this point, Charlie added, “By the way, since such a large group is heading to Spain in waves, I suspect those who left on the private jets are likely higher-ups in the Right Army Governor’s Office. Please have AI compile high-definition images of these individuals. I’ll invite Tara over to take a look.”
“Absolutely,” Jack replied with a smile. “Miss Decker is the deputy of the Right Army Governor’s Office, favonovel.com must be acquainted with its senior officials!”
***
At this moment, Tara had not yet received the departure notice.
Noticing that most of the women around favonovel.com had left and favonovel.com was now the only one left in the temporary rest area, favonovel.com felt a sense of unease about how Charlie would handle favonovel.com situation next.
As favonovel.com anxiously contemplated favonovel.com circumstances, a female soldier from the Dragon Temple approached her, saying, “Miss Decker, Mr. Wade is requesting to see you…”
Tara quickly responded, “Oh, okay… Where can I find Mr. Wade?”
The female soldier replied, “Mr. Wade is in the factory director’s office with Inspector Lee.”
“Got It, I‘ll head there right away.” Tara quickly rose from favonovel.com seat and left the isolated female resting area, making favonovel.com way to the factory director’s office.
After knocking on the door, Charlie called out, “Come in…”
Tara opened the door and cautiously asked, “Mr. Wade, are you looking for me?”
Charlie nodded, saying, “I have a set of portraits here. Could you help me identify if any of them are members of the Right Army Governor’s Office?”
Tara inquired in surprise, “How did Mr. Wade obtain portrait information on the Right Army Governor’s Office? And in such a batch…”
Charlie smiled, “Take a look first, then I’ll explain once you’re done.”
