Twilight shines from the sky on the old streets, and the scattered neon lights on the streets light up one by one, mixed with the flashes of various colors, and spread on the silver-blue old-fashioned luxury cars.

Jingle Bell--

He Ao opened his eyes, looked at the incoming call notification flashing on the car screen, and raised his hand to answer the call.

"Mr. Lynn,"

Tucker's face appeared on the car screen. He looked at He Ao and said quickly, "The warehouses, chemical plants, and machinery factories you investigated earlier all have some new clues."

"Come one by one and speak slowly."

He Ao put his hands on the steering wheel and replied slowly.

Tucker nodded slightly, raised his hand, and passed a document over.

Eve automatically expanded the file and placed it on the car screen.

At the same time, Tucker also began to introduce, "First of all, the warehouse. After we arrested the owner of the warehouse, we obtained a lot of information from him.

“Since the Prisoners Gang completely took over the southern neighborhood, his previous business of selling stolen goods to the major gangs in the southern neighborhood has indeed deteriorated a lot. For a while, he even listed the warehouse on a sales website.

"But just a month or two later, when the Prisoners had the entire southern neighborhood under stable control, the situation took a turn for the better.

"His 'acquaintances' in the southern neighborhood gang contacted him and introduced him to a mystery client,

"This customer directly rented his entire warehouse for several years as soon as he made the sale. He paid him a large amount of rent. He used the money to buy several shops in prime locations, and his life continued to prosper.

Got up.

"But the mystery shopper asked for more. He asked for the highest authority in warehouse management and kicked him out of the administrator position."

"He left a backdoor in the management system?"

He Ao glanced at Tucker on the screen.

If he had gained nothing, Tucker would not be so relaxed.

"Yes,"

Tucker nodded, "Although his warehouse uses the warehouse management system developed by Tellison Group, he is not using the genuine version, but a pirated system bought by hackers on the black market.

"Few people in this kind of underground business are willing to expose everything they own to the gaze of the consortium.

"And his pirated warehouse management system accepts a certain degree of 'customization', so he added a backdoor to the entire system, which can avoid all administrator sequences and 'secretly' access all monitoring and material data of the warehouse."

Having said this, Tucker paused, waved his hand, and a string of account passwords were displayed. He continued,

"We obtained the account password for that backdoor from him,

"Although many of the cameras he originally installed in key locations were turned off directly, we still saw many large vehicles that had entered the warehouse in the video playback outside the warehouse, as well as some vaguely printed with the emblem of the Ivis space system.

box.

"Especially in the last few months, there have been a lot of trucks coming into the warehouse."

"Is it ordnance?"

He Ao looked up at the screen, stretched out his hand, and asked Eve to log into the backend of the management system and start analyzing the data.

"At least some of it should be, but most of the goods inside have the emblems completely painted out, and we can't tell what they are,"

Tucker said slowly, "One more thing is that in some surveillance cameras last night, we found vehicles suspected of transporting people."

Almost as soon as he spoke, Eve had already called up several videos and displayed them on the screen in split screens.

The cameras in these videos were all shining on some modified off-road vehicles that seemed to be driving into the warehouse. These off-road vehicles were obviously moving in a hurry and did not do much to cover up privacy. A figure sitting crowded inside could be vaguely seen.

"The 'mysterious shoppers' who rent the warehouse pay the rent in cryptocurrency, and we cannot analyze the source of the rent,"

Tucker continued, "But the 'contact' who found the warehouse owner was his former gang friend. After the Prisoners Gang unified the southern neighborhood, most of the people in the gangs in the southern neighborhood chose to continue to work for the Prisoners Gang.

work, so this 'contact' is also likely to be employed by the Prisoner Gang.

"However, judging from the description of the warehouse owner, he never called the 'contact person' again shortly after renting out the warehouse. The contact person may have physically disappeared permanently.

"Since then, the warehouse owner has never been to the southern neighborhood again.

"This is currently all the information we have obtained from the warehouse. All documents have been sent to you."

"Um,"

He Ao glanced at the screen. Eve was quickly analyzing the intelligence sent by Tucker and the data in the backend system of the management system. He nodded lightly, "I understand. Is there any new news from the chemical plant and machinery factory?"

?”

"We found some newly hired employees in the southern neighborhood, and through them we found some 'employees' who had more information and inquired about the two factories."

Tucker raised his hand and sent two new intelligence documents over, "There is more information from the machinery factory, because many people from the southern neighborhoods work there.

"There is also a warehouse there, but it is not big. Heavy trucks transport the products produced from the factory every day, and basically there are very few goods left.

"According to our investigation, the products produced by the machinery factory of Ives Space System in the southern neighborhood are not directly sold, but only some primary mechanical parts.

"These parts will be transported to a military factory in the St. Yilan District in the east that also belongs to the Ives space system for further processing, and then shipped out through the east gate and sent to Chenxi City or other eastern cities.

"There is relatively little information on the chemical plant. According to the information we have collected, this chemical plant was probably built a few years earlier than the Prisoners Gang was established. There have been no local employees since its construction.

, the employees seem to be all from outside,

"However, this chemical plant has a high degree of mechanical automation and very few live employees. This is rare in chemical plants of the same type, because the damage of advanced automation equipment is much more expensive than human labor.

"The output of this chemical plant does not seem to be large. According to the narratives of surrounding residents, the vehicles transporting goods do not have large heavy trucks, but are small trucks with low load capacity. There are only one or two trucks in and out every day. The throughput is

The quantity is very small.

"With this kind of logistics situation, it is difficult to transport large military equipment."

After finishing speaking, Tucker looked at He Ao outside the screen and concluded, "This is all the information we have collected about the three locations so far. The information is not rich enough and may not be accurate."

"It's great to be able to collect these in such a short period of time,"

He Ao shook his head, glanced at the information Eve unfolded on the screen, and asked slowly, "Is there any new information out there in the wilderness?"

"I contacted a few of my former wanderer friends. They are all staying in Chenxi City now, and they seem to have joined some kind of alliance organization. They promised to help us collect information. They are still collecting information. It may take a while.

It takes two hours to reply,”

Tucker quickly replied, "But judging from the news coming over there, they seem to have found signs of a small mechanized mercenary group moving in the wilderness north of Yilan City, right."

Speaking of this, Tucker hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Do you need to contact those wilderness wanderers directly? This way the communication may be smoother."

After a lot of information is relayed by intermediaries, certain distortions will inevitably occur.

Because the intermediary does not actually participate in the collection and processing of information, it may not be possible to fully understand which information is important and which information is unimportant.

"Can,"

He Ao nodded, "Give them my contact information."

Lynn is very familiar with survival in the wilderness and is not afraid to communicate with wilderness wanderers.

"OK."

Tucker responded quickly.

"Thanks for your hard work,"

He Ao said slowly, "Stay vigilant and increase patrols near the Mayor's Mansion. Don't let anyone know that I have left. If anything happens, contact me in time."

"yes."

Tucker nodded heavily.

He Ao reached out his hand and cut off the phone communication.

He raised his head and looked towards the end of the city ahead. The twilight paved a golden road between the buildings, leading directly to the sunset that was gradually disappearing on the majestic high wall.

The hazy night has quietly crept into the corners of the city.

He lowered his head and looked at the summary report on the bracelet that Eve had fully analyzed.

The content of the report is almost the same as Tucker's report, except that it calculates in more detail the number and types of weapons that may be in the warehouse, the specific traffic flow of the chemical plant, and the transportation trajectory of living animals in the machinery factory.

After roughly browsing the entire report and confirming the guesses in his mind, He Ao raised his bracelet, clicked on the address book, and dialed Covey's number.

beep--

After a brief busy tone, the call was connected, and the image of an old man in military uniform appeared on the car screen.

Judging from the screen behind him, he seems to be in the combat command room now.

"How is the situation now?"

He Ao looked at Covey and asked in a low voice.

"The aviation force of Ivis Space System has arrived outside the safe zone,"

The old man's hoarse and steady voice sounded in the car through the old-fashioned car stereo. He raised his hand and moved it on the table in front of him. A real-time live broadcast window was put on He Ao's screen, "But they don't seem to have it.

A sign to set up camp.”

The content in the live broadcast window is exactly those three magnificent aerial behemoths, as well as the dense aviation troops surrounding the aerial behemoths.

"I will try to contact my friend in the Central Army and ask him to try his best to transfer troops over,"
