Chapter: 6023

The principle was to use thermal imaging technology to detect all people within the range and then transmit their own location in real-time to the cloud service server. The server would receive information on each person's identity and position, combine it with the thermal image, and confirm the identities of these white figure silhouettes.

If an opponent's identity and location were unified, the system would confirm his identity and add a green dot to his silhouette to differentiate friend from foe; if someone unauthorized entered the monitored range, the system would immediately label them with a red dot and send out an alert notification to all.

Steve gazed at the screen showing white human shadow figures, some of which had a sense of unease. He turned to his son Ross and said, "Your grandfather let us stay here to keep watch, but I just feel it's not quite right."

His son Ross was curious and asked, "Father, why do you say that? What's not fitting?"

Steve worriedly replied, "Everyone else is blocking transportation routes by land, sea, and air. We're the only ones stationed here waiting like traps for rabbits. If that rabbit doesn't come to this place, won't we be just wasting our time?"

As Steve spoke, he said, "This isn't just any ordinary task; this time it's about family inheritance. If someone else gets ahead of us, everything will be over."

Ross quickly asked, "Dad, what do you mean by that?"

Steve was silent for a moment and then instructed, "Ross, I think we should divide our tasks. I'll stay here to guard the Zhou family, while you hurry back to find other routes and also investigate the current progress of others to see if we can get ahead of them and recover the four treasures."

"Okay, Dad!" Ross nodded lightly and answered respectfully, saying, "Then I'll prepare the helicopter right now."

Steve nodded and said, "I'll arrange it. Meanwhile, let me brief Hank on that."

As he spoke, he picked up the phone and called Hank over.

A short while later, Hank knocked on the door and greeted with a bow, saying, "Young master, I'm Hank."

Steve murmured, "Come in," and Hank pushed open the door and entered. He then asked respectfully, "What orders do you have for me, young master?"

Steve said, "Hank, notify the helicopter crew that we need to take off exactly 20 minutes from now and return to New York on schedule."

Hank replied without hesitation, "No problem, young master. Is it you who's going back or your son?"

Steve pointed to his son Royce on the side and said in a low tone, "I have something that needs Royce to take care of immediately. We can't afford to waste any time."

Hank nodded and picked up the radio, opening his mouth to say, "Helicopter crew, please note: 20 minutes from now, we will be taking off back to New York on schedule. Please make necessary preparations."

The helicopter pilot responded immediately, "Roger that! We can take off at 20 minutes!"

Hank asked Steve again, "Is there anything else you need, young master?"

Steve opened his mouth and asked, "You mentioned earlier that we set up a network of surveillance equipment. I wonder if this network could be compromised in any way? Could someone sneak past these devices without being detected?"

Hank smiled and said, "Young master, our professional equipment operates simultaneously with more than two sets. We've made sure to leave enough redundancy. Even if one of those sensors or radars fails, it won't affect our monitoring and security as long as the equipment is functioning."

Steve relaxed his mind, just about to let Hank take a step back when his son Royce spoke up and asked, "Hey, Hank, you said we have sufficient redundancy in our equipment. What if power suddenly goes out?"

Hank's expression changed slightly before he smiled and said, "Our security system mainly relies on thermal imaging radar and various monitoring equipment. If power suddenly goes out, these devices will all be shut down."

As he spoke, Hank added, "But don't worry, young master. This villa has two separate electrical lines, belonging to two different power service providers. As long as it's not a complete blackout of the entire grid, if one line experiences a problem, the other line can immediately compensate and maintain seamless integration."

Royce asked again, "What if they destroy both our power lines?" JrNovels.com
