Fleur leaned closer to the window and asked the soldier outside, "Do you know how to get me out of here?"
The soldier shook his head. "Our supervisor has given clear instructions that helicopters and individuals arriving here must undergo a very thorough inspection. At least three soldiers in charge of the inspection must confirm everything is in order before the helicopter and its passengers can leave."
Gritting her teeth in annoyance, Fleur asked, "If I ask the soldier responsible for the inspection to let me go, can I go?"
"No," declared the soldier. "It's not just us who are in charge here. The NYPD and the Rothschild family's operatives are also involved. They insist that inspections must be conducted in order. When it's a helicopter's turn, they'll send representatives along with a dozen of our soldiers, all equipped with specialized gear, to surround the helicopter and thoroughly inspect both the helicopter and its passengers."
Fleur didn't expect the situation to be more complicated than she thought. Frowning in dismay, she asked, "Can you check my helicopter first? Finish the inspection and let me leave."
"No." The soldier shook his head decisively. "The rules strictly prohibit anyone from cutting in line. Inspections must be conducted in the order of arrival, and this order is monitored by all three parties involved. We will oversee the other helicopters waiting in line, so no one can jump the queue in any way."
"Can I sneak out of here?" Fleur barked.
The soldier shook his head again. "We will only open the door of the helicopter that has been inspected for the personnel inside to leave the cabin for the body search. Passengers in other helicopters cannot even open the window, let alone get off the helicopter."
"What if you keep your mouth shut?" asked Fleur.
"If you were to roll down the window right now and stick just one finger out, the AI would detect that the main outline has changed and instantly trigger an alarm. Imagine if someone tries to get out."
Fleur was dumbfounded by what she had just heard. "Is there any way to crack the system? What if I can make all the people waiting for inspection walk out of the helicopter? Wouldn't that cloud their judgment?"
The soldier shook his head. "The order we received is that if anyone disobeys the order and comes out of the helicopter, we will shoot. National security is at stake. We have the right to shoot first, so if these people really open the door and come out, they can be shot before their feet hit the ground."
Fleur was at her wit's end. Judging from the situation the soldier described, if she used psychological manipulation to make these people jump down from the helicopter to cover her, the soldiers would shoot them all in an instant, rendering them completely useless as cover for her escape.
