Peggy, with the help of her brand new promotion in government dealing more fully with customs and border security, will be looking into the records of anything β or anyone β leaving New Amsterdam between the first arrival of the displaced in June and the end of September (post-UNA raids). In particular, she'd be looking for "suspicious shipments" leaving New Amsterdam heading towards New Beijing and any major spaceport hubs, and then widening her search to the other.... hundred... megacities if nothing catches her eye. In short: she's looking into the captured Morningstar agents and where they might have been taken.
A few quick details/questions:
1) What are the usual exports/shipments out of NA and thus would be easily dismissed from her search? What would be flagged as unusual or out of place to anyone looking closely? Would there be "weapons" listed on any manifests (similar to how the first crop of displaced were labelled)? 2) Are tour groups common and if so, would she be able to access the itineraries of all travellers and the agency that organised the group? 3) She'd look into the schedule of the the trains that departed NA between June and the end of September to see if any broke down en route or had an unscheduled stop. She'd also check if the number of passengers / recorded cargo that departed NA match what arrived at its indicated destination. Would she find any discrepancies? 4) On the issue of border security, is the underground cave network regularly patrolled and is there access to the outskirts of the city? I know the cave network isn't as extensive as it is in the dreamscape and that you have indicated that it overlaps with man-made structures and tunnels. Even so, are there any holes in the dam that the government (and thus, Peggy) is aware of? Are there check points down there? Does any smuggling go on with the black market?
