Traveling east from South Coleman Road, west of Orlando, in weather with no roadwork, no traffic, no federal emergencies, and good visibility, it takes only 63 minutes to reach Merritt to the east The Astronaut Training Center north of the Kennedy Space Center on the island.

However, during this 56.1-mile (approximately 90.3 kilometers) journey, there are countless road monitoring electronic eyes, automatic teller machine monitoring heads, shop cameras, vehicle driving recorders, etc. A large number of machines and equipment that can capture a person's trace.

Because Gloria escaped again, NCIS director Rafael Magnussen had to, after full consultation with the CIA, the CIA dispatched a small artificial intelligence urban aircraft belonging to the secret office of Orlando to track her whereabouts. .

Another intelligence agency of the joint investigation team, the FBI, also dispatched their secret "air force" urgently.This "Aerial Surveillance Force", which was exposed to the public by the Associated Press 14 years ago, still exists in the United States in the name of various private companies.

Soon, the FBI established in Maitland, north of Orlando, urgently dispatched a small single-engine plane equipped with monitoring equipment to conduct comprehensive flight monitoring at low altitudes in Orlando.

The "private enterprise" planes that fly the FBI's missions have similar surveillance programs to the CIA's smart aircraft.It can not only shoot high-resolution video at night at a long distance, but also identify its communication operator through mobile phone signals, thereby helping FBI agents confirm the identity of ground targets, even if the target's mobile phone is turned off.

Rafael's intelligence was based on the Ford Mustang coupe that left the scene shortly after the incident.However, after searching through a large number of road surveillance electronic eyes, artificial intelligence aircraft, and low-altitude surveillance aircraft, only the abandoned Mustang car was found.

The NSA and NSA also found no valid data on cyber activity, electronic communications.Of course, the mobile phone video that captured Gloria's facial features was uploaded to the Internet less than 5 minutes before it was completely deleted from the Internet by the technical staff of the National Security Agency.

So, where is Gloria now?The only person who knew where she was going, the Ukrainian girl Katerina, was lying in the autopsy room of the Orlando medical examiner's office.

She didn't disappear, nor did she hide in Orlando.It's just that during the journey to the astronaut training center, she kept changing her way of traveling and means of transportation.

A Petebilt heavy-duty tractor truck was passing the Willow Lake Golf Resort on the northern outskirts of Titusville when a black figure suddenly emerged from under the truck chassis.

When the truck drove to a small forest on the right side of the road ahead, the black shadow suddenly fell on the road.You lay in the middle of the road like a piece of dead wood, safely avoiding the wheels of the trucks on both sides that were spinning forward rapidly.

As soon as the heavy truck drove away from the grove, the black shadow immediately got up from the road and got into the grove beside the road without looking back. After 3 minutes, the black shadow ran all the way across a 1.5-mile (about 2.4 km) section of road and arrived at the westernmost coastline.

After looking at Merritt Island across the Indian River for a few seconds, the black shadow straightened his body and kicked off the shore in an instant, his streamlined body dived into the water like a javelin.Following a hole drilled by the arm on the surface of the water, other parts of the body also passed through the hole.

An inconspicuous splash into the water disappeared into the deserted night along with the shadow's body.A few seconds later, everything around returned to its usual tranquility.

At 11:58, "Shadow," also known as Gloria, appeared outside Blackpoint Wildlife Drive, northwest of Merritt Island.Apparently, by this time she had turned back from the astronaut training center four miles away from the park.

Touching the 3D necklace hidden in the inner pocket of the jacket again, a trace of joy appeared on Gloria's face, "Okay, now I have to find a suitable means of transportation to go back to San Diego."

When she quietly raised her head out of the water, she knew she had swum across the entire length of Indian River, still back to her starting point on the shoreline at Willow Lake Golf Resort.

Cross a railway on the left side of the coastline and run straight to the Keller Road in the opposite forest that leads directly to the golf resort.While running non-stop, he thought quickly, "It takes at least a day and a half to drive from Titusville to San Diego, and it's too dangerous to go by land. So, what about the sea route?"

"No, the coast guard may have blocked the sea. Besides, it may not be possible to find a suitable ship now."

"Well, now there are only air routes left. All airports in Florida are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security. I believe they have issued a notice to all airports at this time."

"It doesn't matter. In any case, the air route is the fastest route."

At this time, Gloria had arrived outside the Willow Lake Golf Resort, and walked along the track street on the outermost side of the resort to enter a holiday residence for rent.

At 12:11 a.m., she was at a desk drawing up an escape plan.The plan is to go to Arthur Dunn Airport, which is the closest to the golf resort, and find a plane to escape Florida by air.
