Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 1254 Found a Suspicious Target (5000+ words)
There aren't many jobs in interstellar society, and the same is true for customs on Devon; the vast majority of cases are handled by automated systems.

Of course, there is supervision. Wood's position is the customs system security officer, which is to check the customs security system. Wood is responsible for the security maintenance and inspection of the video system at the entrance and exit of Devonstar Airport.

It's a very easy job; during work hours, I use the tools I carry to test the entire subsystem.

Then check the equipment status.

Yang Bo arrived at the customs office. Although he had colleagues there, they would just greet each other and then go about their own business.

The customs' entire intelligent system is divided into many parts, mainly two types: local security and the imperial intelligent system's main brain.

The data in the local security reserve cannot be modified; this is the archived data, prepared for potential future incidents.

The Empire's AI system will cut out some meaningless data because the total amount of data in the entire Empire is too huge after it is connected to the network.

Yang Bo directly used Wood's permissions to filter the facial images.

There are no shortcuts, only the hard way: watch.

Red Earl's people look clean, refreshing, and handsome. In interstellar society, being handsome is already very common because the cost of becoming handsome is too low.

Blonde hair isn't necessarily accurate, and being a gentleman is even harder to define. If the filter criterion is "gentleman," then all nobles will be filtered out.

Because nobles are all gentlemen, this selection criterion includes all nobles; if a noble is not identified as a gentleman by the intelligent system...

Intelligent systems depend entirely on their internal settings.

It's not that it's based on everyone's senses, because everyone's senses are different.

Yang Bo divided the portrait data into ten rows, with each row scrolling at a speed of 30 images per second.

That means Yang Bo can see 300 people per second, and 2.3 million people came to Devon Star within three months.

That means it would take 7700 seconds, 127 minutes, or more than two hours.

1.7 million people are expected to enter the country in the next three months, which means it would only take four hours to see them all.

As for Yang Bo who left the country, we don't need to look at him; we only need to look at suspicious people entering the country.

Two hours have passed, and as of today, apart from those who have already been killed, there are no other suspicious individuals among those who entered the country within the last three months.

Then we filter for the next three months.

Of course, the situation regarding these portraits in the next three months is somewhat uncertain, as some applications may be expedited, and some nobles may use their privileges to enter the country.

While Yang Bo was busy at the customs office on Devon Star, interstellar public opinion once again propelled Li John to a new high.

For most people in the know, the content of Lee John's live stream was simply unbelievable.

Because all three countries have some measures in place for personnel with classified information, which include some restrictions on the biochips in their brains.

The alliance will implant a dual restriction in the biochip, meaning that certain functions of the biochip will only be unrestricted in specific areas.

In other words, the full performance of a biochip can only be unlocked in a laboratory or workplace; its performance will be limited outside of certain areas.

The Empire and the Federation are more direct; they use slave chips.

This chip has more restrictions than the Alliance's chips. The slave chip has self-destruct capabilities and can paralyze the user's mind through various means.

It releases an electric current instantly, causing devastating damage to brain cells.

Another issue is the sudden release of a large amount of information, which overwhelms the brain and can cause the person to fall into a coma at the very least.

So John Lee is preparing to publicly sell his position as the chief engineer and senior engineer of the Imperial Warship Intelligent Manufacturing Plant...

This is obviously wrong.

These people are under a high level of secrecy within the Empire.

There's absolutely no way it'll be auctioned off!
The Alliance and the Federation's intelligence agencies went all out and quickly gathered the relevant information!
Then the alliance urgently withdrew its previous plan to send more than 2,000 warship specialists to John Lee.

Then they urgently recruited personnel who had previously graduated from warship-related majors, and also recruited some graduating students from schools for internships.

Of course, these are not things done by the league's official bodies, but by some of the league's companies. This way, if something goes wrong in the future, the league's official bodies will not be held responsible.

The Empire also took corresponding action, replacing the retired Imperial soldiers originally intended to be sent with those who had just graduated or had graduated before but had not joined the fleet!

Because these people do not serve in the fleet, there is no fear that they will leak relevant information.

What the intelligence agencies of the three countries were most interested in was how John Lee managed to ignore the existence of the biochip.

Because the biochip has been absorbed by the brain and become part of it.

Some people say that you should just remove the biochip.

However, relevant precautions were taken when the biochip was implanted.

The biochip is designed to be tamper-proof, meaning that if the biochip is removed, it will trigger a self-destruct mechanism.

Therefore, the three countries sent more intelligence personnel to John Lee.

It just so happens that Karaya state is currently recruiting, so these people managed to sneak in.

Yang Bo finally found useful information at the new customs office in Dewen.

After comparing the information for more than three hours, Yang Bo finally identified the suspicious person.

The other party will enter Devon in twenty days, and they are from the Alliance.

It was a tour group from the alliance. There were three people in the tour group, two men and one woman. One of the men was a lawyer and the other was a financial analyst, while the woman was a nutritionist.

These people all looked to be in their thirties; the men were mature and composed, while the women were mature and intellectual.

However, the information registered by the three individuals shows that they are all over fifty years old and possess superpowers!
"These people seem to be the ones the Red Earl has hidden the most!"

“These people are clearly different from the Red Earl’s other knights!”

"If I didn't have the ability to impersonate a Grandmaster, I wouldn't have been able to tell these three people apart at all!" Yang Bo felt that the three people were suspicious the moment he saw them.

However, the three of them were on a completely different level in terms of temperament and attire compared to the previous Red Earl Knight!
The Red Earl Knight is much easier to identify.

Yang Bo also speculated that an organization like the Red Earl's must have many other hidden members, not just the people on the inside!
It is precisely because of these hidden individuals that this organization has been repeatedly crushed and then resurrected over the years.

It's like grass; simply clearing away the surface doesn't make any difference. As long as the roots are still there, it can grow back!
The alliance's tour group stayed at the Roundabout Hotel.

The Empire has a high vetting threshold for those coming from the Alliance.

However, the security screening process is more lenient for people from the alliance.

For people coming from the federal government, the vetting threshold is lower, but the level of security screening is higher.

The threshold for approval is visa issuance. The visa issuance rate for the Union is only about 20%, while for the Federal Union, the issuance rate is about 75%.

People from the Federation can easily obtain tourist visas to the Empire as long as they have proof of their round-trip shipping and hotel bookings.

Even if members of the alliance have tourist visas and proof such as boat tickets, their applications are easily rejected.

Because the Alliance's ideology is completely different from the Empire's.

However, once these people enter the Empire, the Empire only conducts the lowest level of security checks on Alliance members, meaning it does not actively monitor the information of every Alliance citizen.

The Empire's security surveillance of Federation citizens is two levels higher than that of the Alliance, meaning that almost every Federation citizen who enters the Empire is under constant surveillance by the Empire!

The main problem is that the Federation is in too much chaos, with shady businesses everywhere, and the Empire is afraid that the people from the Federation will cause trouble.

And the citizens of the Alliance are hardly monitored.

"Tsk tsk!"

"The Red Earl's men are too clever for their own good!" Yang Bo knew, of course, that the Red Earl's men had sent people from the Alliance to try and get the Empire to relax its security checks.

However, Yang Bo felt that the other party's decision to stay at the Roundabout Hotel was a stupid move!

"Of course, perhaps these people think it's easier to do it while staying at the Circus Hotel."

"After all, the people in the Roundabout Hotel are extremely wealthy, and a space technology forum is about to be held there. Maybe these guys are just trying to cause trouble in the chaos."

"Maybe these guys are here to get revenge on Allen."

"After all, it was Allen who discovered the Red Earl's men last time!" Yang Bo thought to himself, then waited for the end of the workday before leaving customs.

After returning to Bart's manor, Yang Bo pretended to inject himself with a restoration potion, reverting to Bart's appearance. From then on, Wood would still go to work!

Then Yang Bo messaged Allen, asking him to give him the list of guests staying at the Roundabout Hotel for the next month.

We will have someone investigate the backgrounds of these people ourselves to ensure the security of the Space Technology Forum.

After receiving the message, Allen sent all the information to Bart!
Because Yang Bo's statement is completely correct.

After receiving the information from Allen, Yang Bo quickly found the reservation information for the three people!
"Hehe!" Yang Bo didn't answer Allen immediately, but waited for a while.

The goal is to give Allen the illusion that he, too, has hired someone to investigate.

Yang Bo spent another night at Devonstar, enjoying the services of three beautiful women.

The three beauties each have their own unique charm, but all three are completely devoted to Bart.

The next day, Yang Bo went to Bart's private laboratory, first wandered around the Second World, and then arrived at John Lee's fleet!
"What bad luck!" Yang Bo received the list of warship personnel from the people of Karaya State and said with disdain, "What bad luck!"

Yang Bo discovered that these people were recommended by companies with alliance backgrounds.

Yang Bo knew very well what kind of people in the alliance were.

In particular, it recommended one-third of the women, many of whom had just graduated from school!

The various cliques within the alliance are particularly prominent in schools!
Just like the group that Sea and Annie joined before, they joined it while still in school.

The alliance's elite class uses this method to ensure that those in the lower ranks have absolutely no chance of rising in rank.

Even if a few highly talented individuals emerge from the lower levels and grow up in such a learning environment, they will still encounter various cognitive conflicts.

The reason why the alliance has various small groups is because of the elite class, which causes these small groups to constantly stagnate.

Moreover, the elite of the alliance will highly praise the best members of these small groups!
For example, environmentalists, animal rights activists, and organizations like the China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation (CBCGDF).

These elites only need to spend a small amount of money to elevate these people to a high position, which can cause these groups to constantly generate conflicts.

Therefore, Yang Bo was quite disgusted with these college students in the league.

Yang Bo actually liked the people recommended by these companies with imperial backing.

At least the people on the Empire's side have very normal aesthetic sense.

"Tsk tsk!" Most of the students recommended by the Empire are either recent graduates or about to graduate with degrees in warship-related fields!

Yang Bo knew that what he said at the elders' meeting had an effect.

The Empire has changed its strategy for dealing with John Lee.

Yang Bo revealed in a live stream that the possibility of auctioning off senior engineers was actually a way for the league to change its mind.

The Alliance's intelligence department isn't stupid either. John Lee was able to auction off these engineers because he must have found a solution for biochips. If they could also send the elite troops over...

That is to increase John Lee's combat power!

Therefore, Yang Bo directly used Li John's identity to send messages to these companies with alliance backgrounds, asking them to pay attention to the tendencies of these people!

Furthermore, once you arrive in Karaya, you must abide by the laws of Karaya.

Yang Bo's message was actually a warning to the other party: don't send people from those small groups over, or they'll be ruthless if those groups cause trouble within the Federation!
Yang Bo originally thought that after he sent the message, these companies with alliance backgrounds would change their minds.

However, the heads of these companies simply made phone calls, patting their chests and assuring everyone that these people were fine.

"...!"

"These guys in the Alliance have ulterior motives!" Yang Bo quickly realized that the methods used by these people in the Alliance were quite sophisticated!

The alliance recommends these people if they are members of various small groups.

If John Lee deals with these people later, the Alliance will incite these small groups to protest against John Lee.

If this situation isn't addressed, these people will become like seeds, taking root and sprouting within the fleet of Karaya!

Moreover, it may have indirectly dealt with some unstable factors within the alliance, because sometimes people in these small groups are pushed too high and really think that their influence is enormous.

Because the elite of the alliance realized that they had been fooling people for too long, giving these lower-level guys the illusion that their protests were effective.

In fact, most of the protests by the alliance groups are actually driven by the power struggles of capitalists. If there were no capitalists, the police would have cracked down hard.

In fact, if these groups, such as environmental organizations, really touch the interests of the larger alliance, then these people are likely to encounter all sorts of unexpected events.

"it is good!"

"We'll see who's better then!" Yang Bo decided to wait and see.

The alliance wants to use these groups to destabilize Karaya, but Yambo has plenty of ways to do it!
That is to do the opposite: donate money to these groups and let these guys cause trouble within the alliance!

Of course, if you're really ruthless, you can just send these people to their deaths and let the pirates rob them. Pirates are the most effective way to deal with these groups!
The people on the planet Karayabang are looking at two bright spots in space!
Some people were very happy, some were numb, and many more couldn't quite put their finger on what they felt.

These are the two Class B warships that John Lee purchased, now officially returned to Karaya.

The heads of these companies in Kalaya were not happy at all, because John Lee was now in charge of the entire state.

Previously, the heads of these companies had the final say on everything on the planet.

Now everything has to go through John Lee.

Although Karaya's overall military strength has improved considerably, this is not what the heads of these companies wanted.

After all, no one wants to have another mother-in-law on their shoulders.

"General!!!" The first to arrive on the B-class warship were Lisa and Vivian, who were also very excited to see John Lee.

The two men hold a very special position in Karaya.

Because the two women were John Lee's women, Vivian received a lot of benefits in private.

Because if you want to get anything done in the federal government, you have to get connections first!
And Vivian is Lee John's spokesperson!
"Wow!!" Lisa arrived at the warship's control room and was amazed by the various devices inside.

"A Class B warship is just different!" Lisa graduated from the warship command department, so she knows a lot about warships.

There are huge differences between each class of warships.

From the number of energy cannons, to the power of the warship itself, and the size of the warship!

The energy cannons of lower-level warships have difficulty penetrating the protective shields of higher-level warships.

As for the energy cannons that can destroy planets, only the main warships of the main fleet possess them.

Other classes of warships do not have such energy cannons.

"From now on, you will be the acting captain of this warship."

"This warship uses a brand-new intelligent control system."

"These two warships will remain on the planet as sentry ships." Yang Bo couldn't possibly take these two warships out to plunder, because they would be too conspicuous.

So they simply left it in Karaya as a follow-up defensive warship.

"Ah, General, you mean I'll be the only one controlling this warship from now on!" Lisa said, somewhat surprised.

"That's how it is for now!"

"People recommended by other companies?"

"Don't worry about that!" Yang Bo wasn't afraid of these companies' fleets sending people off in Karaya State, because he planned to bring back a few more warships on this trip.

"But?" Lisa still couldn't believe it!

"Come on, I'll teach you!" Yang Bo prepared to teach Lisa how to control the warship.

As a planetary patrol warship, it requires no extra operations; simply activating the frontline alert mode is sufficient.

Furthermore, Yang Bo can also remotely control this warship.

Yang Bo was about to prepare to go with the pirates to deal with the fleet of the Madhya Pradesh. The pirate group would attack the Madhya Pradesh fleet while he robbed the pirates.

Madhya Pradesh has set a trap, and the pirate alliance has already fallen for it.
