Chapter 743: On the Road to Escape (2-in-1)
In the hallway, a burly man stopped in front of a house, accompanied by several companions.
The man looked up and saw the green indicator light above the side, indicating that it had been cleaned up, and his brow couldn't help frowning.
"Is this it?"
"It's... Yes sir, is there any problem? ”
The cleaning staff behind him looked nervous, the lobby manager knew what was going on, but they ordinary workers didn't.
These strong men in front of him all look like they are all temperamental, very much like elites from professional organizations like the army, and suddenly ask for a room card from the manager, it can't be that there is something wrong here, right?
Did the people who lived here before commit an accident?
The thought that he had just cleaned the room might have ruined the clue made the cleaning staff panic.
"Don't be nervous, we're just recording the show." Operations director Ryan Leigh Fay Phillips, the man in the lead, saw the janitor's uneasiness at a glance and smiled and pointed to the camera behind him.
The cleaning was stunned: "Program? ”
Phillips swiped open the door and pushed it in, explaining to a member of the field team behind him, "Ever heard of Stealth Tracking? A reality show that simulates the arrest of prisoners, our current arrest team, the escape team in the room just now. ”
"Stealth Tracking: I know!" Cleaner's eyes lit up.
Phillips looked at the room that had already been tidied up and felt a little troubled, but due to the process, he and the rest of the people still searched the entire room, and the result was as expected, leaving nothing behind, even garbage, which was cleaned in garbage bags.
Further search may require a search at the hotel's dedicated garbage disposal site, which is not an easy task.
"Season 2 and Season 1 will be on the air next Thursday at 8 p.m., and you are welcome to tune in then."
"When did you start tidying up your room?" Phillips interrupted the conversation between the field crew and the janitor, pulled out a sticky note and began to take notes.
"About twelve thirty."
It didn't take long, and the cleaner remembered it well.
"When did the light come on?"
"Around 12:10, it will never exceed half an hour, as long as there is a demand, we will try to meet it as quickly as possible."
Half an hour later, Phillips transferred the land and came to the bank behind the ATM, and after the identity and authority of the accident, he investigated the monitoring and recorded the time of withdrawal.
After that, there is a supermarket.....
It stands to reason that Phillips was supposed to stay at the base camp as a director of operations and command remotely, but given the fugitive's illustrious resume, he decided to go out himself.
"The opponent is quite calm."
On the note, Phillips completely recorded the whereabouts of Bi Fang and Yao Jun after the arrest began, as well as the service nodes.
At twelve o'clock, the game officially began, and the two went upstairs to tidy up their clothes, and then turned on the prompt light to send out a demand for cleaning.
Then go downstairs and find the nearest ATM machine to withdraw a hundred ugly deposits, and then find a convenience store, no receipts are kept, but from the surveillance, it can be seen that the two bought some bread and food, retrieved computer records, and learned that a total of 26 dollars were spent.
At one o'clock the hunters were dispatched, and at one twenty o'clock, Phillips' field team arrived at the hotel, and at one thirty o'clock, was given permission to enter the room.
It's now one thirty-five.
But until 12:40, Bi Fang and Yao Jun were calmly exposed to the camera, and they didn't mean to shy away at all.
Phillips definitely didn't believe that a person who could achieve the top ten achievements in the history of the Hunter Academy would not even know the most basic need to dodge the cameras.
The only explanation is that the other person is very confident and doesn't mind being exposed to the camera for a long time.
As long as you go to withdraw money, even if you wear a hat or a wig, the camera next to the ATM will record you, and there is powerful facial recognition software that can recognize you.
No matter how bad that credit card has been bound to the hunter's monitoring system, as long as it is used, it will call the police, and various gas stations, bus stops, and bus stations will also have cameras to shoot it.
And the other party's mobile phone is not carried.
Phillips looked at the two-step phone inside the plastic bag, as well as a laptop.
The contents of it must have been investigated, but Phillips did not have much hope that there would be useful information in them.
This is also one of the common sense of investigation.
As long as they bring their own phone, it is "obedient to the rhythm of the bowl", and most fugitives will not carry their own phone, but will try to get someone else's, or buy a disposable phone.
But the captor will listen to the phone calls of all relatives and friends in the fugitive's social network, and as long as there is a call from an unusual contact, it will be suspected, so that it can be tracked and recorded.
You can even find the number of this disposable phone from the receipt of the store where you purchased it, so that you can locate it with the base station.
Phillips reported the situation as it was.
Rob nodded: "Bring them all back, let the data experts check the online records, and see if they can find some clues." ”
As two foreigners, the most effective way to escape in Los Angeles, where they don't know their lives, is to look up information on the Internet, subway routes, car rental company addresses, all of which need information.
As a non-local, Bi Fang also needs to learn a lot of information on the Internet, but once these things are discovered, they will definitely become a guide to the escape route.
"Isn't that dangerous?" Yao Jun lowered his voice, a little uneasy.
"I've deleted all the browser records, or deep cleaning." Bi Fang stretched his hand out of the car and said indifferently.
It's not safe or advocacy, but feeling the wind blowing through your fingers and heading off the road is a thrill of freedom.
It's just that the car is rented and doesn't have much gas.
Luckily, there was a gas station not far from the car rental shop, and Bi Fang seriously suspected that this gas station and the car rental company were in the same boat.
He turned the car into it and beckoned the gas worker.
"Are you kidding me? I'm not an idiot! Yao Jun almost choked to death, "Is this kind of thing okay to delete records?" This level of data recovery can be done by the programmers in my company! ”
I heard that unless the hardware is completely smashed, the data can be recovered no matter what.
made Yao Jun dare not go to some messy websites these days to avoid social death.
"That's true, but data recovery takes time, and I check the news on the Internet, and they all cast a wide net, even if they are restored, they have to judge from them that those are the real destinations of our escape, and it can be delayed for a while, I never expect to do it once and for all, it would be nice to put some smoke bombs."
The Hunter Regiment knows a little bit about it, and they are all elites.
Therefore, Bi Fang was not confident that he could really clean up all the tails with every step he made.
One person's brain is not as good as the brains of more than thirty people, but he is confident that they must spend enough time to distinguish the real from the fake for each tail that is left.
"Relax, just hug my thighs, come on, smile at the camera, smile a little bigger."
Bi Fang closed the window and smiled exaggeratedly at one of the cameras at the gas station, and the photographer in the back row shuddered and immediately focused the camera on this scene, filming every detail.
Although the cameraman didn't know why Bi Fang was smiling at the camera, this scene was inexplicably emotional!
"Hey, too."
Yao Jun leaned back in his seat, and after thinking about it, he had to admit that this was indeed the case.
If Bi Fang can't escape, then he is also an additive, it is better to honestly hug his thighs, live a little easier, and enjoy the excitement of escaping.
Hearing the second half of Bi Fang's words, Yao Jun glanced at the camera in the upper right corner of the gas station, and did not mean to laugh: "Is this a provocation?" ”
"Count, it doesn't count."
After filling up the cheap gasoline, Bi Fang paid the last change to the gas station staff, rolled up the window, relaxed some facial muscles, and drove back to the road.
"Forged identity documents can provide an important layer of identity cover for 'fugitives,' but if foreign governments have identified them as potential security risks, the photos may end up at border crossings or other higher-security checkpoint databases."
"The existing facial recognition software is mainly image-based, in fact, it is relatively easy to circumvent, and it is not so scary, like in the movie."
"This technique uses algorithms to compare specific anchor points in a given image database — nose, eye spacing, the size of each eye, cheekbones, chin and ear shape — with a focus on distinct bony protrusions that cannot be easily changed."
"But if you cover up or mold these anchors, the software will be reduced to a showpiece."
Bi Fang pointed his finger at his facial features, focusing on several key parts.
This professional explanation finally gave Yao Jun a sense of substitution again.
That's it, the sense of déjà vu of a criminal thief!
"Whisper!"
"Oversized sunglasses and long bangs can be used to cover the forehead, brow bones and some cheekbones. Lowering the brim of your hat and tilting your head down can make your face hidden in the shadows. ”
"A smile changes the shape of the eyes and pushes the muscles above the cheekbones, which is why many countries only allow for neutral facial expressions when taking passport photos."
Yao Jun was stunned: "It's so simple? ”
Bi Fang shook his head: "It's not that simple. ”
"Casinos in Las Vegas often use facial recognition technology to prevent cheating gamblers from withholding millions of ugly dollars, and the technology is a growing science over there."
"Social media platforms have also started using facial recognition technology to tag and categorize images, so the technology is only going to get more sophisticated, driven by interests."
"Now, state-of-the-art facial recognition technology has been combined with vascular recognition technology to become a smooth-working mechanism."
"Vascular recognition technology will take a thermal image of the face, based on the location of facial veins and arteries, and under this recognition technology, there will be very few tricks that can be played, but that's it."
Yao Jun was worried again: "It's just what? ”
Bi Fang shrugged: "That thing is not popular at all, we don't need to worry about this at all." ”
Seeing Bi Fang's insight, Yao Jun's heart was surging: "I thought you were really playing, and you didn't care about winning or losing." ”
"I don't want to lose even if it's a game." Bi Fang dug into his pocket, and only took out some fragmentary coins, "Now we still have left, look, oh, forty-five ugly points, it's really like water." ”
Yao Jun was quite surprised, not surprised that there was too little money, but surprised that there was still left?
You know, they came out of the hotel, went to the supermarket to buy some food and some tools, and spent twenty-six dollars, and then they had to go to the car rental company to rent a car, and they just refueled.
Is the ugly yuan so strong?
"My eldest young master, what do you think?"
"100 ugly dollars can buy 12 movie tickets in New York, 20 movie tickets in the Midwest, and 20 McDonald's meals for one person. Buy a Gameboy plus a game card. Enough for two people to eat at a high-end French restaurant. A decent quality 30 to 40 gallons of gas, oh, a gallon is almost less than four liters. ”
"You can even buy two of the latest high-end mobile phones, of course, if you join a mobile phone service company, even an ordinary car, 200 dollars can be rented for a full week, and we only need to rent this tattered car for two days, besides, I don't have a full tank of gas."
Gasoline is, of course, as much as you want.
In case it is not used up, because the temporary plan has to be abandoned in advance, then it is not a blood loss?
A hundred dollars is worth so much?
Hearing Bi Fangru's price report, Yao Jun was speechless.
In the hunter's office, Robert coordinated everything and gave the mobile phone and computer sent by the field team to the technical department for information search as soon as possible.
"Daniel, proceed with data recovery."
"Phillips, have you made any new discoveries?"
"Found their car rental agency, I'm inquiring." Phillips pulled out his little note again and asked the owner of the rental car.
At first, the owner of the car rental company also panicked for a while, the other party's style was obviously the posture of Fobole, could it be that he rented the car to someone who shouldn't have rented it?
Thinking of this, the boss immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
It's ugly here, if you are rented by some vicious criminal, you have to get your car back?
When Phillips asked if there were two Asians who had come here to rent a car, the boss nodded busily and poured beans into a bamboo tube and said everything he knew.
"Well, there's no need to be nervous, and there's no need to worry about any losses." Seeing the boss like this, Phillips smiled and asked the field staff next to him to re-explain, and the boss was relieved.
"So, the two of them took a car, right? What is the license plate number? What model is the car? ”
"Yes......"
Phillips made a note of the model and number plate and pulled it out of the rental car stall.
It stands to reason that knowing the license plate and model of the car from which the "fugitive" fled should have been a major breakthrough.
But for some reason, Phillips always felt that it was not so simple.
Will the other party leave such an obvious handle?
