Chapter 809: Chapter 335: Finding a Needle in a Haystack _2 Chapter 809: Chapter 335: Finding a Needle in a Haystack _2 Even so, the facial features calculated by “Dream” were almost spot on. Under Yan Fei's gaze, “Dream” began to mark the facial characteristics of the five kidnappers onto the human data model. Soon after, the large screen displayed reconstructed images of the five kidnappers. With “Dream's” calculations, these five kidnappers were perfectly restored. What appeared on the large screen were five African Black People.

Looking at the five African Black People, Yan Fei said, “Dream, invade the servers storing population data of all countries around the world, access their population data, and then match the appearances of the five kidnappers within them.”

“Dream” asked, “Should I invade China's servers as well?”

Yan Fei replied, “There's no need to invade China's servers.”

The reason Yan Fei decided not to invade China's servers was that there were virtually no Black People in China, and it was extremely difficult to acquire Chinese nationality. Over the decades, only a few hundred foreigners had been naturalized, and there were no Black People among them, so searching in China's servers would be a futile effort.

Unlike the Auxiliary Brain which cannot deviate from the user's commands, the Artificial Intelligence “Dream” was much more flexible. Once given an order, it would carry out the task independently. Of course, this was not to say that the Auxiliary Brain was inferior to “Dream,” but rather that Yan Fei, as a user with limited knowledge, could not fully utilize the capabilities of the Auxiliary Brain. Therefore, for Yan Fei at the moment, “Dream” was undoubtedly more practical. However, if Yang Qi were to use the Auxiliary Brain, then its performance would far exceed that of “Dream.”

Upon receiving Yan Fei's command, “Dream” entered the Network World and began invading servers of various countries that stored population information. It also invaded the public servers of all countries in the world except for China. This task was immense and required extraordinary Internet control capabilities. If this task were assigned to an ordinary hacker, they could spend their entire lives trying to achieve it, but for the Artificial Intelligence “Dream,” the task was not as challenging as one might think.

“Dream” resided in the Super Photon Computer “Light of Technology,” which had an incredibly powerful calculation ability, over ten thousand times that of the strongest supercomputer in the world. The servers storing data were protected by very strict password security programs, but when “Dream” used the terrifying calculation ability of “Light of Technology,” these passwords were easily cracked, and they could not prevent “Dream” from accessing the data within.

To avoid detection of its theft of other countries' population data, “Dream” did not use China's telecommunications network. Instead, it activated 24 communication satellites that were already officially connected to the Internet. It used these satellite signals to enter the World Network with ease and acquired most of the world's population information and data.

Under the powerful data transfer capability of the communication satellites, information on the world's population was transmitted back to “Light of Technology.” It could be said that Dream Island now possessed the most comprehensive population data in the world. Then “Dream” began searching through the vast population database to find the real identities of the five kidnappers.

Because the search was based on comparing facial features, the workload suddenly increased, and the task couldn't be completed as quickly as before. Even so, two hours later, “Dream” had completed the search through several billion population records. By comparing faces, “Dream” identified 587,000 suspect individuals within the population database.

The reason for identifying so many suspects was not that these 587,000 people looked exactly like the five kidnappers, but because “Dream” thought the previous human data modeling might not be entirely accurate and that the real appearance of the individuals might have some discrepancies with the calculated appearances. Therefore, “Dream” widened the search criteria, including anyone who had an 80% or higher resemblance to the kidnappers, which was why it identified 587,000 suspects all at once.

Then “Dream” continued to filter through these suspects. Since all five kidnappers were Black People, Caucasian suspects were excluded. After the skin color filter, the number of suspects was reduced to 459,000. “Dream” then filtered by height, excluding suspects whose height varied by more or less than 20 centimeters, which quickly narrowed it down to 12,000 suspects.

“Dream” applied another round of conditional filtering, this time by age, and after eliminating clear age discrepancies, the number of suspects was reduced to fewer than 2,500. However, even with only 2,500 people remaining, “Dream” could not confirm the true identities of the five kidnappers.

These 2,500 individuals were scattered across every corner of the world, and it was impractical to try to find them all. So “Dream” took a different approach and began invading the police departments of the countries where these suspects resided, searching for criminal records within the system. It eliminated people who had no criminal records and who had always had legitimate jobs, leaving just 189 suspects.

The five kidnappers were extremely vicious, blatantly murdering hostages, which indicated they likely had criminal histories and did not have stable legitimate employment. Therefore, those without criminal records and with legitimate jobs could be excluded.
