Chapter 1090: Footprints in the Snow

The meeting lasted a full three hours before the summit's agenda for today was announced. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When Jiang Chen announced the dismissal of the meeting, the foreign ministers of various countries left the venue almost as quickly as possible after getting the documents issued by Transwarp Trade. For them, the most important thing now is to talk to their leaders on the phone and send back the information they have in hand.

The reporters waiting outside the parliament building were doomed to disappointment, and the foreign ministers did not give them the opportunity to cover the news at all, and after leaving the house, they got on a helicopter and flew away immediately.

It is clear that the summit did not reach a conclusion about disclosure to the public.

At least not today.

Reporters outside the Houses of Parliament put away their cameras and left the venue swearing, and although there were 10,000 reluctances, they now recognized the fact as well. For more than three hours, they waited in vain.

However, many concerned reporters still noticed a trace of unusual taste on the faces of the foreign ministers of various countries who left the scene.

Their expressions were all serious.

Or anxiety?

Reporters who noticed this were thinking hard about the doorway in their hearts, trying to dig out valuable news from these scraps, so that they could take it back to their bosses.

What is it that makes foreign ministers so anxious?

Their intuition told them that there was a lot to be done, but even if they wanted to, they wouldn't know that it was all because of the document that Jiang Chen finally sent to the foreign ministers.

It was an astronomical observation.

After confirming that Gliese 581g had signs of life, Kerrwin led the astronomical observation team of the Ministry of Space to conduct a carpet search of the airspace outside the Gliese 581 galaxy, and according to Jiang Chen's opinion, the observation focused on those asteroid belts outside the star system.

Soon, they discovered something very scary from those asteroid belts.

An unnaturally formed vacuum belt has been observed in several asteroid belts between Earth and Gliese 581g......

……

Two days have passed since the first round of consultations at the summit closed, and two days since the document was sent to the United States.

On 17 June, a rare group of bureaucrats from the White House gathered in the conference room of the NASA headquarters in the United States. Moreover, the level of these bureaucrats is not small, and even the president and the minister of defense have come here in person, which can flatter the small yamen of NASA.

Even if NASA has recently gained a certain amount of attention because of the increasing popularity of the space program, it has never been like today, when several bigwigs from the White House came to the door together. It was only during the arms race between the United States and the former Soviet Union that NASA was honored to receive this honor.

"Need a cup of coffee?"

"No, I don't. Hillary shook her head with a calm face, and the chief of staff, who was sitting next to her, was silent with amusement.

Today is the day of the results, although it is okay to sit in the White House and wait for news, but after hearing such an astonishing fact, how can she sit still?

Just then, the door to the conference room opened, and Bolden walked in briskly.

More than a dozen lines of sight at the conference table looked at him in unison. Bolden took a deep breath, threw the papers in his arms on the conference table, and said stiffly.

"The observations are in. ”

"How's it going?" asked Hillary, praying in her heart for the one in 10,000 possibility. However, she herself knew very well that this was nothing more than self-deception, and the wry smile on Bolden's face said a lot.

"It's basically consistent with Transwarp Trade's data. Bolden said.

Hillary Clinton was silent, and the entire conference room was silent.

Originally, there was still luck among those here, after all, with the current astronomical observation methods, it was impossible to carry out such a meticulous star mapping. So much so that many people even began to wonder if this was false information fabricated by Star Ring Trade by special means.

However, the eye can deceive, but the data does not falsify.

What's more, the other party wrote down the detailed astronomical coordinates of the asteroid belt in a document and handed it over to the countries themselves to verify.

NASA researchers immediately used the Hubble Space Telescope to observe the coordinate region as soon as they got their hands on the data. Although it was not possible to draw such a clear star map as the Ring Trade, NASA did the same result three times based on multiple sets of data from the Hubble Telescope.

Regular vacuum zones have been observed in several asteroid belts between Earth and Gliese 581g. It is obviously impractical to attribute this to the work of nature, and there is only one possibility of such a phenomenon.

That's when something goes through there.

And the size and speed of that thing are not small.

"What do you think is most likely that vacuum belt?" asked Hillary, swallowing at the foam.

"It's footprints. Bolden said with an ugly look on his face, "The footprints of the beast through the snow. ”

"I'm the same as you think. With a stern expression, Carter felt his clenched palms begin to sweat.

He admits that he was a Star Wars fan when he was younger, and that his bedroom was covered with "Independence Day" posters, and that he even fantasized about being the pilot who crashed into an alien spaceship with a fighter jet. But he never imagined that there would really come a time when he would actually face up to the aliens.

And also in the capacity of Minister of Defense.

"What do you think our odds are?" asked Hillary, looking at Carter.

Carter didn't answer the question directly, but said with a wry smile, "What do you think are the chances of Iraq winning a fight with us?" ”

Hearing this, Hillary also smiled bitterly.

Now that the aircraft carriers of extraterrestrial civilizations have already set off, they even have to work so hard to build a ship to "go to sea". As for the local decisive battle, after seeing the horror of the brood, who else can mention the courage to face the tidal wave of xenomorph seas?

"I'm afraid it's more practical to build a spaceship and escape than to defeat them. Bole shook his head bitterly and laughed at himself, but he didn't expect a pair of eyes to look at him.

"It's really an idea. ”

"Yes, at least to keep the president, like Air Force 1. ”

"And it can also bring a lot of people and leave seeds for the United States and even human civilization. ”

“……”

Seeing that because of his words, his colleagues had already begun to discuss how to escape, Bolden suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said.

"Do you think Congress is going to approve this budget -- take taxpayer money and get the president on the run? Those lawmakers haven't gone crazy yet. ”

"Not necessarily. Hillary, who had not spoken, said suddenly.

Compared with Bolden, an astronaut-born doer, Hillary, who has been in politics for many years, is undoubtedly more than twice as sensitive as him. She knows exactly who the White House really serves, and she knows who she should please the most.

"Members of Congress don't want to die, and the rich people on Wall Street don't want to die, and we don't even have to raise money from Congress. Hillary's chief of staff followed suit.

With a look of hope burning in her pupils, Hillary and her chief of staff sang and spoke in harmony.

"All you need is a Noah's Ark fund and investors are allowed a ticket. ”

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Oh, yes!

As long as you can convince those rich people to get on the boat, are you afraid that you won't be able to raise funds?

At this moment, however, the door to the conference room was pushed open, and Hillary's assistant trotted over in a hurry.

"What's so urgent?" asked in a deep voice, despite the gloom written on her face, Hillary still maintained the demeanor of a president.

"People, people are holding signs in front of the White House, and I want you to explain. The assistant said sweatingly.

"Explain what?" Hillary said, frowning.

The assistant didn't answer, opened the news page, and handed the phone to Hillary.

When she took the phone, Hillary Clinton had a faint sense of something wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was. However, the moment she saw the news headline, her mood instantly fell to the bottom, and the crow's feet wrinkled with anger, and she almost broke out scolding.

"Despicable!" (To be continued.) )
