"What did you say!"
The office of the director of the NRO, Peter stared at the balls and couldn't believe his ears, because he had just received an urgent report from his subordinates, and just half an hour ago, the area in charge of the NRO in Area 51 was suddenly taken over by someone sent by the Ministry of Defense. Smith has handed over all projects related to the Zeus program to the Department of Defense, including not only the project leader, Kevin Brown. Professor Adams and dozens of core scientists also included the controllable thermonuclear fusion device in the base, a qiē real yàn number, data and so on.
"What about our people? Why not stop them! ”
Peter grabbed the subordinate in front of him who had come to report to him, and asked angrily.
"Sir...... Agent Smith is the executor and liaison of Zeus's plan, and his rank is also the highest ...... among the base personnel. The young subordinate explained with trepidation.
Although, he didn't finish his sentence, Peter already understood what he meant, that is to say, Galen. Smith was on the ground with the entire handover plan, and may have even used his position in the NRO to control the actions of other agents, so that the sudden takeover was completed so quickly, so fast that even the entire NRO headquarters had no time to react.
"How dare he do that? How dare you! Peter angrily pushed his subordinates away, his face distorted from overexcitement, his eyes blazing with rage, and he waved his fists to kill Galen. Smith, the bastard, was torn to shreds.
That's right, due to the gradual deterioration of the situation, Peter finally decided to compromise with the White House, and Mr. President duly released some details that could be disclosed in exchange for continuing to control the Zeus project in the future. Of course, there is a bit of a risk to be taken by the NRO, and the NRO has played a very poor role in this plan, especially in kidnapping and luring Kevin. Professor Adams used dishonorable tactics in his actions. And while disclosing the details, Kevin. Professor Adams' case will undoubtedly be an unavoidable link, so Pitt has decided to put the blame directly on Galen. Smith, with his sacrifice to protect the interests of the entire NRO.
As for Galen. What does Smith himself think, Peter doesn't mind, doesn't it seem to him that subordinates are used to betray and scapegoat? Not to mention that in the current situation, Galen. What choice did Smith have? As long as a smart person knows what to do, rebellion or those boring thoughts will not have any effect, the NRO is an intelligence agency, not the ridiculous plot of Hollywood movies.
However, Peter didn't expect that he had miscalculated, Galen. Smith did such a thing, did he think that if he defected to the NRO, he would have no choice but to take him? It would be naïve for him to make such a decision with this in mind, and there are countless ways for the NRO to carry out the cleanup, even with the Department of Defense.
"Let Kamath come along."
Pitt tried to calm himself down, and as he ripped off his tie, he took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart. Kamath was Peter's right-hand man and the senior agent in charge of operations. Smith's sudden betrayal, Pitt is ready to resort to the means.
But before he could order his subordinates to go out to inform, the phone on the table suddenly rang. Peter glanced at the ringing confidential phone, paused and picked it up.
"This is Peter!"
I don't know who opened the phone, what did the other party say to Peter, I saw that Peter's expression first became extremely angry, and then became complicated and surprised, as the other party continued to speak, he began to be silent again, and the anger in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a trace of helplessness and a wry smile.
"I understand, sir, yes, I will personally sign this document jiàn, I promise you ......."
Finally, Peter hung up the phone, his face was cloudy, and seeing that his subordinate was still standing at the door waiting for his order, Peter opened his mouth to cancel the previous order to his subordinate and asked him to leave his office.
As soon as the subordinate walked out of Peter's office, he only heard the sound of objects smashing on the ground and Peter's roaring and scolding, which frightened the subordinate and quickly quickened his pace and hid as far away as possible.
In the afternoon of the same day, a copy of the NRO's office was passed to the Defense Intelligence Agency. Smith was immediately transferred from the NRO to the Defense Intelligence Agency. At the same time, the Pentagon submitted to the White House an internal investigation of the Area 51 base. Professor Adams was completely voluntarily involved in the controlled thermonuclear fusion program, and the so-called Pluto landing program and the abduction were all rumors. Professor Adams made a clear rebuttal to the alleged abductions, claiming that he had very good cooperation with the government.
In addition, the Pentagon also vetoed some of the explanations made by the White House on the issue of Pluto's extraterrestrial base, proposing that under the principle of putting the interests of the United States first, in addition to acknowledging that the Mars Climate Explorer Mars probe did not crash that year, it did fly to Pluto's orbit, but there was no so-called extraterrestrial base at all.
The Pentagon produced information and images from the Mars Climate Explorer rover, including records of information from the time, to confirm this claim. The White House was built to make the matter public to the world in order to protect the reputation and interests of the United States.
"Karl, is this the opinion of the Pentagon, or yours?" Mr. President flipped through the seemingly leaky internal investigation and was silent for a long time before asking Defense Secretary Karl.
"Mr. President, it makes no difference." Karl calmly replied, "All the world wants is an explanation, so we'll give them a reasonable explanation." ”
"It's not wrong, but it's ......."
"Controlled thermonuclear fusion, isn't it?" Carl took out another document and handed it over, and Mr. President took it, which turned out to be a revised draft of the ITER program, which proposed that the U.S. government would use new controlled thermonuclear fusion technology to adjust the current ITER program, and invited countries to study it together.
"I think that with this thing, countries are enough to be satisfied." Karl replied confidently.
Kevin. Professor Adams joining the program at the same time? Mr. President's heart moved slightly, yes, as a politician, of course, he can see that the main problem at present lies in the key technology of controlled thermonuclear fusion, and the reason why more than a dozen countries led by Russia have asked the United States to disclose the truth through the United Nations, and use this way to force the United States to comply, is also the intention.
As for whether the Pluto alien base is real or not, as long as the United States does not set up obstacles in the technology of controlled thermonuclear fusion, Russia and other countries can also compete with the United States. Moreover, in the plan come up with by the Pentagon, there is also a proposal to form a joint landing on Pluto in the name of the United Nations, and this alone can stop the mouths of these countries.
"Of course not!" "As a free democracy, we must respect Professor Adams' personal wishes, and no one can force him to do anything unless he personally agrees to participate in the ITER program," Carr said seriously. As for the new ITER program, as long as we provide the core theory, the progress of the research will not be difficult for the whole world, you say, Mr. President? ”
Squinting his eyes at the physicist-turned-and polite Minister of Defense in front of him, how could Mr. President not understand what he meant. After thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded and signed the paper.
