Chapter 1082: 1082
The Purple Fire Ice Polar Bear Paws, which were chopped off from high-level demon beasts, soaked carefully in Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and boasted the function of facilitating the growth of brain cells, tasted nothing more than sawdust for everyone .
Guo Chunfeng was holding a lunch box in his hands, but he did not move his chopsticks . Staring at the ever-changing light beam with his bloodshot eyes, he issued commands as if he were shooting a gun .
"Vulture Li Yao is now in Green Plateau City, which is only two hundred and fifty kilometers away from the capital city . He will be here in time either on foot or in a shuttle .
"All the traffic lines between Green Plateau City and the capital city, those in the river, on the ground, and in the sky, must be strictly watched over . This is the highest alert!
"If he comes on foot and doesn't resort to his techniques, the journey will have to take him one to two days . Then, he will have to sleep at night . He will be either sleeping in the wilderness or checking in at a hotel . Investigate that!
"Walking is too risky and must be his secondary plan . It is more likely that he will travel in a shuttle . Therefore, investigate the rental companies and the lost shuttle cases in Green Plateau City . "
All the Secret Sword Agents fell silent .
Green Plateau City was a large city with a population of millions . It was also a famous manufacturing base of shuttles . Looking for a missing shuttle in such a place?
That would be really like fishing for a needle in an ocean!
However, it could not be helped . The intelligence work was never as cool as outsiders imagined . Leads would not jump out themselves .
One valuable lead was often filtered out from billions of useless pieces information .
It was a time-consuming job that even a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator needed to finish dutifully without shirking .
As tremendous resources and the Secret Sword Agents of the few cities nearby flooded into Green Plateau City, endless new data was soon sent to the light beam in the command center .
One of the flashing messages made everyone's heart skipped a beat .
The middle-aged woman in heavy makeup, Li Yao's third false identity, rented a shuttle in Green Plateau City!
"We've got him!" Mosquito exclaimed excitedly .
"Investigate, but not with too much manpower . " Guo Chunfeng sat cross-legged on the chair like an old monk . "Li Yao wouldn't be so stupid . Buying a ticket and renting a car with the same ID card? Is he scared that he won't be found out quickly enough?
"The rental is probably another smoke grenade . We should still focus on the lost shuttles in the past two days . "
As he expected, news came over from Green Plateau City soon .
The 'Flying Pigeon' shuttle, whose localizer had been hidden, was found in the countryside a hundred and fifty kilometers away from Green Plateau City .
However, it was not Li Yao who was racing in the shuttle but two local scavengers of Green Plateau City .
The two of them lived in the magical equipment graveyard and made a living by collecting the scraps . When given the chance, they would not mind stealing, either .
They had stolen the shuttle half a day ago, which they thought was a huge windfall .
However, they did not expect that what came along with their windfall would be hundreds of fully-armed, highly-vigilant Secret Sword Agents .
When the 'Flying Pigeon' was surrounded by hundreds of flying swords, both thieves peed themselves .
The result made the command center even more depressed . Many people were cursing in a low voice .
But Guo Chunfeng was as peaceful as before . He calmly ordered his subordinates to defend every major traffic line from Green Plateau City to the capital city . He even planned to expand the range of search and investigate the entire capital ring!
It was a last resort when they did not have other choices . Countless Secret Sword Agents would be exhausted, and a lot of resources would be wasted . Still, their endeavors might prove to be in vain .
But right now, they did not have a better option except to defend passively and wait for the investigation of the missing shuttles .
If I were Li Yao…
The soft chair was like a swamp that slowly swallowed Guo Chunfeng, who was pondering in a trance .
He did not like the feeling of being attacked passively .
If things remained unchanged, they would always be one step behind Li Yao .
He had to find a way to predict Li Yao's next step!
Suddenly, Guo Chunfeng trembled, his blanket falling to the ground . He mumbled to himself, "If I were Li Yao, would I only prepare three fake identities for myself?"
Mosquito and his other subordinates were all used to their boss's habit . They quickly replied, "What do you mean, boss? You suspect that he has more fake identities?"
"Exactly . " Guo Chunfeng slowly sat up straight, as if he had crawled out of the swamp in his mind . He said quickly, "Think about it . Li Yao's three fake identities were not delicately made . We would've found them out in several days no matter what!
"Then, even if he successfully sneaks into the capital city, under whose identity will he be taking action?
"Right now, the alert in the capital city is higher than ever . Sentries and surveillance cameras are everywhere . The faces of the passers-by will be scanned randomly to confirm their identity .
"Without a legal identity, he can barely walk on the street! If he resorts to the three fake identities, he will be essentially surrendering himself to us!"
Mosquito's eyes suddenly shone, but she was confused . "But that's still not right . We have investigated all the lost ID card cases in North Tranquility City . There are no new discoveries . "
"This time," Guo Chunfeng said casually, "he doesn't need an ID card, nor will he pretend to be a citizen of North Tranquility City anymore .
"The defense system of the capital city is connected to the network . If the face of a citizen of North Tranquility City is detected but there is no record of him entering the capital city, won't it be super strange? He can't appear out of thin air .
"Therefore, he should pretend to be a resident of the capital city . "
Mosquito frowned . "He can barely sneak into the capital city now . How can he pretend to be a resident of the capital city?"
"Very simple," Guo Chunfeng replied quickly . "When he was in North Tranquility City, as long as he waited for the trains or carriers from the capital city in places such as the railway stations or the ports, it would've been easy for him to lock onto a few residents of the capital city and retrieve their identity information .
