Chapter 1333 - 1338: Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea
Why stay at a hotel and book a ticket for a few days later?
The reason is quite simple: Yang Yi isn’t actually afraid of the ordinary police finding him.
Though the United States seems calm on the surface, there’s a storm brewing underneath. Secret organizations like the Grey-cloaked People and Cleaners don’t have many people; even if they want to find Yang Yi, they’d largely rely on the U.S. authorities.
The death of a CIA deputy director with real power would be an extremely sensational event for the entire intelligence system of the United States. Whether it’s the CIA or the Department of Homeland Security, they must now be working at full capacity to ferret out Yang Yi, who, even if not the perpetrator, certainly has a significant connection.
But the intelligence agencies have limited manpower, and although they would indeed enlist police assistance, the fact is, while the police are good at catching ordinary criminals, apprehending a highly experienced spy is really beyond their capability.
Therefore, technologies like facial recognition, iris recognition, and fingerprint identification are the main tools for finding a needle in a haystack when manpower is insufficient.
Airports are definitely under heavy surveillance, with who knows how many agents specifically counter-espionage operatives actively searching for Yang Yi’s trace. Any unusual activity will surely be scrutinized both in the open and in the shadows.
Yang Yi has a private plane, but he absolutely can’t use it now. He has to leave not only by commercial flight but also with countless eyes watching his every move.
