Banner shook his head, he really didn't know when the Apocalypse Mars would arrive on Mars.

"Three months and twelve days"

"It's almost twenty days faster than our Starship, have you ever thought about what that stat represents," Barkley said seriously.

After listening to Barkley, Banner first froze, then frowned and nodded, understanding what Barkley meant.

It is already known above that the Mars of the Apocalypse Group is not simple, and other things can be faked, and the time of flying from Earth to Mars cannot be faked.

Twenty days ahead of the Mi country starship, what kind of concept is this, is it possible with ordinary nuclear power.

Apparently not, the above has already taken into account what Banner just came up with, and moreover, it tends that the Apocalypse Group has made a new technological breakthrough in the use of nuclear energy.

The nuclear technology of the Apocalypse Group has definitely stood at the pinnacle of the earth's nuclear energy utilization.

"Banner, you haven't taken a vacation in a long time"

"Relax, go on vacation for a month, relax"

"When you come back, you'll be able to form a new nuclear project team and develop our own superpower"

"I've already communicated this to the above, and they agreed to our plan, and we will give you a special grant," Barkley said with a serious expression.

Banner nodded seriously, full of gratitude to Barkley, he really deserves to be an old friend who has always supported him, which is just interesting.

The two chatted for a while and then left, and when they arrived at the project team, they began to write the leave application, and after completing it, they went to Barkley to sign, and only when Barkley signed could the vacation begin.

Barkley signed easily, and made a few jokes with Banner, and the two laughed together.

After sending Banner away, Barkley let out a long breath.

"Old friend, don't blame me, I have to think about my future"

"If you want to blame, blame those inhuman politicians"

"Of course, you are also responsible"

"I'm mean enough to you, but you're not mean enough to me," Barkley said to himself.

The Black House intends to arrange for someone else to replace Barkley, which is unacceptable to Barkley, and he will be able to retire in four years, and now he will remove himself.

The rest of the time you need to pay for all kinds of insurance and fees, at least a hundred thousand dollars in a year, and almost a million dollars in four years.

I was removed from my position at NASA, and according to the contract, I was not allowed to work in other countries related to the space department for five years.

But what can I do myself, go home and run the farm?

Moreover, the most unacceptable thing for Barkley is that he is still his sworn enemy.

What made Barkley even more sad was that someone asked Banner for his opinion, and Banner replied that it didn't matter, and he didn't have a problem with who was in charge.

Barkley can't accept it, Lao Tzu, I give you so much freedom, and there is no shortage of various resources, you actually answer that it doesn't matter.

Fake, don't blame me for being unkind, don't blame me for hacking you, don't blame me for hacking you.

When I got home from work in the afternoon, I took out a newly purchased laptop and a small box from under the bed, and when I opened the small box, it was a small signal receiver.

Then Buckley went to unplug the network cable at home, completely cutting off all networks.

This starts the receiver and starts to turn on the computer and connect the new computer to the small receiver via a data cable.

The small gravitational communication terminal produced by Tianqi Group is so convenient that you can enter the network when you connect it.

This is a satellite network that cannot be monitored by the relevant authorities, and it is very secure.

After doing this, he turned around and went to his study, opened the safe, took out a small box and a phone, and then locked the safe and came back.

Take out a small, very delicate USB drive from the box and plug it directly into the computer.

After the USB drive was plugged in, the computer ran the program automatically, and Buckley didn't have to worry about anything, and soon a very clean and tidy conversation window appeared.

"Ten million euros, tell you the whereabouts of Banner, the power designer of NASA's Starship," Barkley typed in the sentence.

Then turn on the mobile phone you just took out and put it aside, and start to wait for the other party's reply slowly.

This kind of thing needs time for the other party to ask the superiors for instructions, so Barkley is not in a hurry at all.

I went to make a cup of coffee and came back, but the other party hasn't replied.

After waiting for about forty minutes, the other party replied.

"Deal" is a simple two words.

Barkley smiled, entered his hidden account directly, and waited for the other party to pay.

In just about an hour, a text message appeared on the phone taken out of the safe, and Barkley looked at it and smiled.

I was relieved to enter an address.

Banner's vacation location is fixed, and you can't travel anywhere else, only within the mainland of the United States, so the restriction is for Banner's safety.

With that done, Barkley began to destroy the evidence.

With a mobile phone, a computer, and a small gravitational communication terminal, he went straight to the basement, where there was a shredder, and Barkley smashed everything into the shredder.

Soon, a pile of scrap appeared in the bottom bucket.

I took out a bag, carefully filled a part of it, and then turned around and went to the kitchen to empty the garbage, and then walked out of the house with it and threw the bag into the trash can at the door.

According to the habit of sanitation workers, they will come to their door at 9 o'clock every night to collect garbage, and go to the row across the road to collect garbage at 9 o'clock every morning.

This is a fixed time.

The next morning, Barkley went back to work like a nobody.

Barkley knew that Banner was sucking monsters, and if he wanted to go out to travel and relax, he would definitely bring his family with him, which would take time to prepare, at least three days.

In just three days, a lot of things will change.

Time passed slowly, and on the fourth day, someone came to the Black Palace, and the order was announced, and Barkley's old rival was in power, and he was removed from his post.

And, to be placed in a NASA agency, a very, very marginal agency.

Barkley knew that in a year at most, the institution would be dismantled, and at that time, he would officially become unemployed.

Packing up his belongings and going through three security checks, Barkley drove out of NASA headquarters.

The next day, go to work at this institution.

Half a month passed slowly, and that night, on an island not far from the United States.

The Banner family went to bed early after a day of play, not even noticing that a trace of smoke began to appear in the room.

Ten minutes later, the room of the Banner couple and the room of the two children were divided into several black-clothed personnel, and these people were very skillful.

Inject the target directly and start transporting the target away.

The Banner children were all taken away.

At the same time, two men in black stayed, a man and a woman, and the two lay directly on the bed, looking at each other and smiling.

It wasn't until noon that the two opened the box they had brought, took out the hood from it, and put it on, and then began to sort each other out.

It didn't take long for the finishing to be completed, and at a glance, it was definitely the Banner couple.

After the two got dressed, they went out together and went to the hotel bar to return the children's room, on the grounds that the children were going home and had already left.

At the same time, the two of them wanted to stay here and pay for the room for a week.

After finishing the process, the two left and returned to the room.

No one noticed anything out of the ordinary, including the agents who secretly followed the Banner family, and as long as the Banner couple showed up, nothing was a problem.

The next day, in the afternoon, the Banners went outside for an afternoon coffee break, and the agents didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Four days passed, and on the fifth day the Banners did not show up, on the sixth day they did not show up, and on the seventh day they did not show up, and the agents felt that something was wrong.

Immediately revealing his identity and allowing the hotel to open the Banner couple's room, it turned out to be empty.

Moreover, the Banner couple's salute disappeared without a trace.

Immediately called for support, and the agents were already sweating on their backs.

This is not a trivial matter, I'm afraid, I can't keep my job.

Several people looked at each other, all with bitter faces.

Support soon arrived, and a detailed inspection of the room was immediately launched, and after almost two hours, everyone was black-faced, and not a single suspicious fingerprint was found.

The matter couldn't be suppressed, and it was reported quickly, and the leaders of the relevant departments were blinded, and Banner's identity was too important, especially now in the stage of global space competition.

The matter was soon reported to the Black Palace, and a day later, the bigwigs gathered and began to discuss the matter.

"Who do you think is going to do this?" the big guy asked with a dark face.

"I think there are only two organizations that are brave enough to do this, one is Country E, and the other is the Apocalypse Group," another big man said without yin or yang.

"The former is likely, the latter won't do this," another big guy spoke directly.

The others were all stunned, looking at this person in puzzlement, and the meaning conveyed was very clear, how can you be sure that the Apocalypse Group will not do this.

"Banner may be a treasure to other countries, but it has no effect on the Apocalypse"

"Gentlemen, I am usually in charge of science and technology, and I have been studying the Apocalypse Group, and everyone knows the time when the Mars rover of the Apocalypse Group arrived on Mars from Earth."

"But do you know why" The big guy looked at everyone and said directly, everyone shook their heads.

"Apocalypse Group has made a breakthrough in terms of power, and the technology mastered surpasses us, although I am very reluctant to admit it, but this is the reality"

"Apocalypse Group already has a stable power R&D team, which is very stable, if they rob Banner and Banner joins it, it will definitely cause chaos"

"Xu Ping'an is a very shrewd person, and he will not let this kind of chaos appear"

"Again, what is needed, Xu Ping'an will buy it directly with money, and will not engage in such laborious things, it can't just spend more money"

"So I said that Banner has no value to the Apocalypse Group," the big guy explained.

Everyone nodded, agreeing with the big guy's analysis, so that there was only one suspicious target left who dared to do so.

"So, this time it's our old rival who did it again," the big guy said with a dark face.

"I suggest we don't jump to conclusions yet, and it's better to arrange for someone to investigate"

"After all, we just resumed normal relations, and I'm sure that he won't break this agreement easily."

"Maybe someone did it to sabotage our strategy," said another bigwig, rubbing his chin.
