Stevenson is a columnist for The New York Times, the author of several best-selling books on politics and economics, and is a well-known figure in the United States.

That night, after having dinner with his wife and children, he received a phone call from Hoffman, editor-in-chief of the New York Times, asking him to quickly turn on the TV, saying that he had received a notice from the White House that US President O'Guanhai would make a televised speech to Quan Shijie in a few moments.

Stevenson was a little strange that unless there was some unexpected event, Oguanhai's televised speeches were usually given advance notice rather than in such a hurry.

What's more, the recent international and domestic affairs have been relatively calm, global warming and other issues are not the turn of Ao Guanhai to speak in the White House, the United States' health care reform is still deadlocked in Congress, and there will be no results for a while, and there will be no important things that need Mr. President to come forward in person!

Just when Stephenson was still wondering, Ao Guanhai had already walked into the White House press conference room with a smile on his face, and the following was already full of reporters from all over Shijie.

Seeing that O'Guanhai was in a good mood, Stevenson picked up a pen and paper and prepared to record the key content of Mr. President's speech so that he could comment on it when the time came.

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Ao Guanhai glanced down at the speech, then looked up and said in his usual tone: "Tonight, I can announce to the American people and the whole Shijie that the U.S. government has completed the operation to eliminate the leader of al-Qaeda......"

Stevenson only felt his brain thump, and he was stunned for a moment.

I stayed for a long time. He jumped up from the couch and yelled in the direction of the kitchen, "Tiffany, LD is dead, LD is dead!"

"Steve, what are you talking about? What LD died?"

The wife asked, poking her head out of the kitchen.

"Ben LD is dead, Ben LD is dead!!" Stevenson just repeated the phrase.

"What, Ben. LD is dead?" the wife's eyes widened, and even if she wasn't interested in politics, Tiffany knew how much the bearded man had influenced America over the past decade.

Stevenson beckoned to his wife, and Tiffany hurriedly came to sit down beside him.

For this. LD。 The feelings of Americans are very complicated. At the beginning of the bombing of the Twin Towers, almost all Americans were cursing this cold-blooded demon.

But over the years, the huge costs of the war on terror have had a profound impact on American society, Afghanistan, Iraq. Uncle Sam wields a big stick. Invincible before the world. But ten years have passed, the ruins are still ruins, and the good life that the world is looking forward to has not come.

Uncle LD has also disappeared for ten years. In the past ten years, Uncle LD has been like a nightmare, hanging over Milicon like nothing.

Just when the American people didn't have any hope of catching this guy, the news suddenly came that Uncle LD had been killed.

While this shocked everyone, the originally tense heartstrings suddenly loosened a lot.

However, the surprise was not as strong as expected, and Stevenson put his arms around his wife and sighed softly.

"What's wrong with you, honey?" asked Tiffany.

Stevenson smiled wryly, "I'm wondering how I'm going to deal with the editor's rush tomorrow." ”

"Isn't it hard to write?"

Stevenson shook his head and was about to speak, when he saw a White House press officer on the TV screen walking up to Ao Guanhai and whispering a few words, the smile on Ao Guanhai's face disappeared instantly, and it was almost gloomy and could drip water.

Then, Ao Guanhai directly dropped the speech and walked towards the small door of the press conference hall next to him.

Bang -

Even Stevenson in front of the TV could feel Okukanhai's anger!

"Oh my gosh, what's going on?" exclaimed Tiffany, covering her mouth.

Stevenson muttered: "Something big has happened, there must have been a big thing, isn't the beard dead??? otherwise Mr. President wouldn't have slammed the door and left at this time!"

Tiffany said, "How is that possible?"

At the same time, this reaction continues to play out in millions of households across North America.

Just when the two were still speculating, the phone rang suddenly.

Stevenson looked at his phone and said, "Editor's phone!"

He pressed answer, and after a while, his expression changed, and he turned to his wife and said, "Tiffany, bring me my laptop." ”

…………

Washington, White House. Although the outside world has set off an uproar, everyone in the conference room still looks calm.

Ao Guanhai also walked out of his emotions not long ago, although his face sank like water, but there were not many traces of gaffe on the surface.

The meeting of the National Security Council was very high-level, and it was attended not only by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, CIA Director Leon Panetta, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mike Mullen, Secretary of Defense Gates, and others, but also by the principal officials of the US National Security Agency (NSA), the National Investigative Service (NRO), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

Phelps Lynn, director of the National Investigative Agency, said: "Mr. President, at present, NRO experts have studied these photos, and they can basically confirm that they were taken by full-color night vision devices on the aircraft, and it is not clear how the other party did this." ”

Ao Guanhai turned his gaze to Mike Mullen, who said: "The Afghan garrison said that it did not detect any electromagnetic anomalies last night. ”

Phelps said: "Judging from the follow-up photos, the other party obviously knows our course of action well, from the beginning to the end of the operation, we have been under the surveillance of this mysterious organization!"

CIA Director Leon Panetta said: "The exact time of this operation was not determined until yesterday afternoon, the flight route was sent directly from the Pentagon to the US military command in Afghanistan, and there were no more than ten people in the know, everyone has undergone strict scrutiny, and there is almost no possibility of any leak!"

At this time, Vincent, the director of the National Security Agency (NSA), who had been silent before, said: "Is it possible that the other party obtained this information through hackers?"

Vincent's question made everyone stunned!

But the people in the room weren't surprised that Vincent could ask the question.

You must know that the NSA is the organization that employs the most doctors of mathematics, computer science and linguists alone, and it is also the most mysterious intelligence agency in the United States.

As the super intelligence agency with the highest level of secrecy, the largest expenditure, and the largest number of employees in the United States, the NSA is also the center of all intelligence services in the United States.

It is nominally a department of the Ministry of Defence, but in reality it is an organization that reports directly to the President and provides intelligence to the National Security Council. It can even spy on senior officials in other U.S. intelligence or government departments, including the CIA and the FBI.

Therefore, Vincent's opinion was taken seriously by everyone as soon as he said it! (To be continued......
