Several people looked at the huge image of the earth in front of them, and watched the earth being marked, densely packed with more than 70,000 areas, and they were silent.

After a moment, He Wei said: "Densely populated places can be excluded again." ”

The amount of work to build a huge underground base is bound to be not small. If you want to work in a hidden area, avoiding densely populated areas is a very reasonable choice.

Lu Ming thought about it, but still shook his head.

"Sometimes, it's densely populated, which happens to be a good cover for huge construction."

If construction is carried out in a desolate place, all kinds of construction vehicles come in and out, and people come and go, which is more likely to attract the attention of the outside world. On the contrary, if the construction is carried out in a densely populated area, these things will not attract attention.

He Wei thought about it and finally agreed with Lu Ming's statement.

This exclusion could not be carried out, and in the end, the remaining suspicious places remained at 6 million square kilometers.

"Is oscillation detection feasible?"

Lu Qingliang made a suggestion.

It's like when you were in the Mountain Eucalyptus, you checked for a large enough cavity under those islands to confirm the location of the "Sanctuary" of Organization X.

Lu Ming thought for a moment and shook his head.

"At the time, the total area of those islands was probably less than 1,000 square kilometers, which is 6,000 times different from the area we need to test at this moment. At the beginning, it took 1,000 inspectors one day to complete. Based on this calculation, even if there are 10,000 inspectors, it will take almost two years to complete the current project. ”

That's a lot of work.

Although the second team of operations has extremely high authority, it cannot be so unscrupulous to consume resources. What's more, this time the inspection operation, the other side is not very sure at all, unlike when the "Holy Temple" was searched at the beginning, it was nine times out of ten, and it was clear in his heart.

Zhang Dingshan also shook his head.

"The accuracy of shock detection is not high, and once the underground cavity is too far from the surface, it cannot be detected. It's also too susceptible to interference. In the city, there are cars coming and going, and there are too many sources of shock. ”

This is a rejection.

"That ......"

Several people were silent.

Lu Ming found that the incident had developed so far, and it seemed that his side had really fallen into a dead end, and he could no longer advance the investigation.

One thing is for sure, in the era when Miko predicted the future, sensed that the end was coming, and began to build the Ark base, there must have been a lot of clues exposed.

At that time, based on the information available at this time, it should have existed in the period between 30 and 40 years ago.

There are a lot of clues in this time period.

After all, the construction of a huge underground base involves too many resources and manpower to be perfectly concealed.

Just like the original mountain god eucalyptus, the sanctuary organized by X, his own in-depth investigation found many clues about the mobilization of manpower and material resources.

However, the eucalyptus situation at this moment is not the same as that of the mountain god eucalyptus.

In the mountain god eucalyptus, his side reflected the reality through history, first had a clear target of suspicion, and then found those clues in the detailed investigation of this suspected target.

And now, we don't even have a clear target to suspect.

In the 10 years from 30 years ago to 40 years ago, there were so many people on the earth, so many projects were being built at the same time, there was a huge flow of materials and people, and the total amount of information was so huge, how could it be possible to filter out the clues hidden in it?

It's almost impossible to do. Finding a needle in a haystack is hard enough.

Not to mention, so much time has passed, and so much information has been lost and can never be recovered.

Several people thought of this path, but several people thought that it would not work at all.

Zhang Dingshan was silent for a moment and raised his head.

His gaze was full of determination.

"If you look for a needle in a haystack, you can find a needle in a haystack. Now there is no other way to go but this one.

With building, building materials, construction, region, earthquake-resistant, underground, etc. as keywords, all relevant information in the 10 years from 30 years ago to 40 years ago was screened out and investigated one by one. ”

Among these keywords, architecture, building materials, and construction are the types of information.

The geographical area is limited to 6 million square kilometres, which are currently the focus of suspicion.

The two key words of earthquake resistance and underground are architectural features. Because it's almost certain that the Ark base must have these two characteristics.

The time range is the decade from 30 years ago to 40 years ago.

There is no doubt that this approach is stupid. But at this moment, this is the only way that a few members of the second action team can think of, and the only path that has a certain degree of viability.

Lu Qingliang sighed silently: "I transferred all the people from our logistics support and intelligence support teams. Well, social forces can also be introduced. I know of a couple of companies that do consulting and information analysis, and they should be able to mobilize almost a few thousand people. ”

Mobilizing these social forces will not take care of anything except money, nor will it interfere with the normal operation of any department, which is convenient and easy to use. And, the worst thing for the second team in action is money.

As a result, the number of people participating in information analysis and retrieval will rise to nearly 10,000.

Among them, artificial intelligence will be responsible for the first detection of this massive amount of information, and will distribute the detected information to consulting and information analysis companies so that they can complete the second detection.

This information is then sent to the Logistics and Intelligence Support Team of the Operations Service, who complete the third test.

The four members of the second team were responsible for the final fourth test.

There are four sieves in total.

"Good. Tell them to be fast. We didn't have much time to wait. ”

After finalizing the next course of action, Lu Qingliang immediately took action.

Whenever this happens, Lu Ming will always sigh at Lu Qingliang's ability and importance.

Although Lu Qingliang often can't put forward any important and valuable reference opinions in the investigation of eucalyptus, which seems to be of no help to promote the investigation of eucalyptus, Lu Ming can deeply realize that without Lu Qingliang, even if he has a good investigation method, he will not be able to advance at all.

Just like at this moment, contacting social companies, coordinating the information analysis and retrieval team of nearly 10,000 people, formulating work processes, formulating work standards and division of labor, this whole set of troublesome and complicated work, what he, Zhang Dingshan, and He Wei need to do is just to make requests.

Move your mouth, don't worry about anything else, Lu Qingliang will take care of everything.

This time, Lu Qingliang also did not disappoint several people.

In just two days, everything was done and the personnel were all in place. In terms of information sources, Lu Qingliang also finalized the authority to access information with various government departments, Internet information centers, and file centers.

In terms of supercomputing and artificial intelligence, Lu Qingliang also finalized a cooperation with a commercial supercomputing company.

The supercomputer program responsible for the first information screening will run in this supercomputer and distribute the information after the initial screening.

This whole set of huge and rigorous work system, after the influx of huge amounts of information like a tsunami, immediately entered a tense working state.

There is no doubt that the information that can finally pass through the four screening procedures and finally be presented to the four members of the second team of the operation team is suspicious.

Lu Ming originally thought that there might not be too much information that could be finally presented to him, but as soon as this system began to operate, he realized that he was wrong.

Even if there are four programs, the information and data that are presented to you are also massive.

In the area No. 6913, 36 years ago, there was a large number of thermal insulation material inputs, but big data statistics found that there was a certain gap between the consumption and input of thermal insulation materials during this time period.

Area No. 22360, 35 years ago, the topography of an area has undergone certain changes. However, geological data show that there were no natural disasters such as flash floods, mudslides, and earthquakes in the area during this time period.

Area No. 55142, 39 years ago, a large number of construction workers converged in an area, but no major buildings were built in the area.

No. 1156 Regional ......

It is clear that all of this information is suspicious. But none of them can be confirmed or ruled out by looking at the information alone, and further field investigation is required to reach a conclusion. But the problem now is that there is too much information of this type.

Based on the current bandwidth, it will take about 10 days for the information from the file centers and data centers of various government departments to be transmitted to the first artificial intelligence screening level after preliminary screening by the department.

On this first day, more than 1,000 clues were submitted to the four members of the second team of the operation that needed to be investigated.

And, these are things that happened more than 30 years ago. If you want to investigate, it is very difficult. It's not something that can be found out by a casual visit and inquiry.

At least an investigation team is required, and the investigation and visit for a few days may not be able to find out the truth.

In the final analysis, it is the screening criteria set by the party that are too lax, which causes so many clues to pass the screening.

But......

There's no way around it.

There is too little information about the Doomsday Organization that it is impossible to formulate a rigorous and complete selection criteria and system.

Several people realized at the same time that it was not possible to go on like this.

Even if each of you can separate a thousand avatars, it is completely insufficient to face such a huge number of clue investigation needs.

In the conference room, the four of them gathered together again. And at this moment, there are at least hundreds of clues to be investigated behind everyone.

There are more clues to be investigated, and several people are not in a hurry. Anyway, even if you are in a hurry, it is useless.

"What should I do?"

Lu Qingliang asked this question that everyone wanted to ask.

Zhang Dingshan's expression was solemn and silent. He Wei looked at Lu Ming.

"Lu Ming, it's time for you to get out of the horse."

"What can I do?"

Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "Except for really mobilizing tens of thousands of security officers to verify and investigate one by one, what else can you do?" ”

This is really the only way. But it was clear to several people that this was not feasible.

If there is a serious enough incident, a reasonable and necessary reason, it is not impossible to mobilize tens of thousands of security officers to participate in an investigation.

But the key problem is that there is no reason for it to do so at this moment. The higher-ups will certainly reject this statement.

The end of the world is a big deal, but right now, it's just a prophecy, a prophecy that has no empirical support.

And the direction of their own investigation is only looking for a needle in a haystack, and there is little hope.

In addition, the impact on the real world is too huge, and the impact is too huge.

Tens of thousands of security officers have been transferred, who will manage the security in the real world? Are the prisoners still caught? Still patrolling or not?

A combination of several factors would make it impossible for any sane decision-maker to agree to do so.

Any existence is valuable. People often say that life is priceless, but if you risk one percent of your death in exchange for 10 human coins, will people do it?

Of course, if there were only 10 yuan, most people would not do it. So, what about 10,000 yuan? What about 100,000?

One percent risk of death in exchange for 100,000 yuan. I believe that many people will be willing to do it.

Based on this calculation, the value of this life is 10 million.

Human civilization is, of course, priceless. But if 10 billion dollars of wealth were paid to eliminate the risk of the extinction of human civilization in 1 million, would a rational enough decision-maker do it?

He probably won't do it either.

Based on this calculation, the value of human civilization is less than one billion.

What's more, there are so many risks that can lead to the destruction of human civilization, such as nuclear explosions, such as giant volcanic eruptions, such as climate change, etc., which of these risk factors is not higher than 1 in 10 million? I don't see how much human civilization attaches importance to this.

Is the probability of the destruction of human civilization higher than the risk of volcanoes and climate change?

I'm afraid not.

If you don't pay much attention to risks such as volcanoes and climate change, how can you pay such a heavy price for an illusory prediction?

Again, this is not possible.

The room was silent again.

After a long time, Lu Ming rubbed his forehead and said, "Since there is no way, then I have a way that is not a solution." ”

"Oh?"

"Let's go with statistics. For example, if there are 10,000 people suffering from a disease in the world, then there is a high probability that one person will suffer from the disease if one million people are randomly selected based on a total population of 10 billion.

Let's assume that there are a total of 10,000 clues presented to us through screening, and among them, assuming that 100 clues are indeed related to the Ark base, then we randomly select 100 clues to verify and investigate, and there is a high probability that one of the clues is related to the Ark base. ”

Lu Qingliang and He Wei looked at each other. After a long time, Lu Qingliang couldn't help but say, "Isn't this just luck?" ”

Lu Ming nodded solemnly.

"Essentially, it's just chance. But...... Now, what else can we do but try our luck? ”

Several people thought for a long time, and finally had to admit that what Lu Ming said was right.
