Inside the White House.

"Mr. President, the United States of America will not accept blackmail from anyone or country, and never will! I think it is necessary to arrest Su Hongwen immediately on the grounds of illegal intrusion into the Pentagon network, as long as Su Hongwen is in our hands, the hackers of the other party will definitely throw a mouse, and I don't believe that after Su Hongwen is controlled, he will take revenge on the United States at the cost of his life. ”

When Director Porter Goss came to the White House with Su Hongwen's conditions and reported to Bush Jr., Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said with a cold face.

Bush Jr. didn't want to do this, but he was very worried in his heart, if things were not what Rice thought, and the hackers of Dream Island really carried out large-scale retaliation against the United States after Su Hongwen was arrested?

Although he has always given people the impression of being hot-tempered and a little bit, it is just to create an image of a tough leader and gain the support of the people of the United States.

As the president of the strongest country in the world, you can't be a fool!

No matter what choice he makes, he cannot be left to his own character, and the first condition must be the interests of the country.

Once the decision he makes finally harms the interests of the government or the people of the United States, then what awaits him will be to leave the presidency in disgrace.

Now that he has thought about it, he still has no idea about the consequences of arresting Su Hongwen.

If the hackers of Dream Island only threatened the United States with missile launches, he would not have such worries at all, and it was a big deal to order the warships and military aircraft of the United States not to carry missiles and rely on artillery shells to attack Dream Island.

Then send a division of Army or Marine personnel to land on Dream Island and occupy it.

Now that the United States and Dream Island have signed an alliance agreement, if Dream Island illegally invades the Pentagon to obtain the most confidential information, the United States can completely stand on the moral high ground and tear up the alliance agreement, I believe that the people and other countries will not oppose his decision even if they do not support it.

However, the supercomputer virus created by the Dream Island hackers is so powerful that it can destroy all the hardware of the computer as long as it is infected.

If all the computers in the United States were destroyed by this virus because of one of his decisions, the huge losses would not be something that the government of the United States could bear, and the primary person responsible would be the president of the United States.

However, accepting Su Hongwen's blackmail and threats in this way made Bush Jr. very unhappy.

If this matter is exposed, the image of the Mi government will be seriously damaged, and I am afraid that those allies will also be extremely disappointed in their own boss.

Therefore, at this moment, George W. Bush is very embarrassed and entangled, and he really does not know what choice to make.

Rubbing his slightly swollen temples vigorously, Bush Jr. asked Secretary of Defense Gates with an expressionless face: "Mr. Secretary, what do you think we should do, whether to accept the other party's conditions to pay $3 billion, or to directly arrest Su Hongwen as Rice said." ”

Secretary of Defense Gates did not reply directly to George W. Bush, but turned to look at CIA Director Porter Goss and asked, "Director Goss, you just said that Kevin successfully hacked into Su Hongwen's computer, so there was a direct dialogue between the two sides, right?" ”

"That's right!" Porter Goss nodded.

"Can Kevin be sure that the hacker who hacked the Pentagon and created the super virus is Su Hongwen himself? This is a crucial question for our decision ahead, and I hope that Mr. Goss will give me an accurate answer. Gates said in a serious tone.

Potter Goss thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Mr. Secretary of Defense, I can't give a definite answer to this question, and Kevin, who has fought with the other side, can answer your question." ”

Three minutes later, Kevin Mitnick appeared in the president's office.

After Gates repeated the previous question, Kevin Mitnick shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not 100% sure if the other party is Su Hongwen, because I don't know much about Su Hongwen's computer hacking skills." ”

Everyone present frowned when they heard this, and it was clear that Kevin Mitnick was not satisfied with his answer.

"However, I found an interesting thing, which may indirectly prove that Su Hongwen's hacking skills should far surpass other hackers in the world." Kevin Mitnick suddenly spoke again.

"Interesting? What is it? George W. Bush and Gates asked in unison.

"After the successful invasion of Su Hongwen's computer, I was curious to check his computer, and found that all the hardware on that computer is not the product of any computer company on the earth, and the performance far exceeds the current mainstream laptop, which is unimaginable, the performance of a lightweight notebook can even be comparable to a supercomputer, I still think that Su Hongwen is from the future, otherwise he would not have such a computer beyond reality." Kevin Mitnick said with an envious and shocked expression.

Envy, because as a hacker, he dreamed of having a computer like that, with such a computer, his means of invasion will be doubled, and the entire earth's network can enter and exit at will.

The shock is that he couldn't imagine that there would be such a notebook with performance comparable to a supercomputer in this world, according to his speculation on the development of computer technology, such a laptop will not appear in this era at all, and it is estimated that it will appear in a hundred years, so he will say that Su Hongwen is from the future.

Not only Kevin Mitnick was shocked, but everyone present was shocked when he heard this information, the performance of the notebook is comparable to that of a supercomputer?

This...... How can it be?

Could it be that Su Hongwen really traveled from the future as Kevin Mitnick guessed?

However, this is even more absurd, after all, all the information Su Hongwen has been following since he was a child, and it is impossible for him to appear in this world out of thin air.

The scene fell silent, and everyone needed time to digest Kevin Mitnick's message.

About three minutes later, Defense Secretary Gates was the first to speak, saying: "Mr. President, whether Su Hongwen has crossed over from the future or not, we must immediately arrest Su Hongwen." ”

Hearing Gates's words, everyone woke up in shock and looked up at Gates.

"From Mr. Kevin's words, I have an 80% chance that the person who invaded the Pentagon and claimed to be a Dream Island hacker is Su Hongwen! As long as we control Su Hongwen, he will not be able to threaten us in the United States, and all problems will be solved, and his super notebook will be ours, so that America's computer technology will go to a higher level, far surpassing other countries. Gates said excitedly, flushed.

Bush Jr. was stunned for a while, and finally stopped hesitating, made a decision, he slapped the table, stood up and said happily: "What you said is very reasonable, OK, Director Goss!" ”

"In!" Porter Goss answered.

"The arrest operation is a joint operation by the CIA and the Pentagon, and no matter what the cost, Su Hongwen must be caught." After making up his mind, Bush Jr. ordered in a firm tone.

"Yes, Mr. President!" Porter Goss and Gates both replied at the same time.
