Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

For Edgar? Hoover's appointment, Alex was full of anticipation.

If nothing else, just to have the opportunity to get in touch with Hoover, and then copy the soul information from the other party, so that you can get a lot of secrets.

As the first director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Hoover collected secrets from all walks of life during his decades-long tenure. He used the FBI to harass dissidents and activists, to collect and organize secret files of political leaders, and to use illegal means to gather evidence.

Many people were afraid of Hoover because he had so many secrets that even the president of the United States was at his beckon.

However, since Alex learned about the distribution of power at the top, he was a little skeptical of this statement, and he believed that Hoover himself was not as simple as it seemed.

At least in a world of witchcraft, vampires, and werewolves, it was almost impossible for Hoover to hold the position of director for so many years just by relying on the secrets in his hands.

Either Hoover was a pawn pushed by the actual rulers of the United States, such as Freemasonry and the Illuminati, just like the Rockefeller consortium and the DuPont consortium. Either Hoover was able to stand on his own, like Hughes, with mysterious forces behind him.

Whoever was on that side, Hoover himself must have known a lot of the inside story. As long as Alex can steal secrets from the other party. He doesn't have to worry about being cheated and doesn't know, at least he can know who is the enemy and who is the friend.

Facing Agent Smith and his buddies at the f-force, Alex only thought about it for a moment. An immediate reply was given.

"Okay, I'll take some time out to meet with Director Hoover in the next few days!"

"Then we'll go back and tell the Chief now!" Smith stood up and reminded as he was about to leave: "Please don't reveal your whereabouts to others, the situation has been very unquiet lately!" ”

Not calm? What do you mean!

Alex watched the two agents leave, and secretly wondered what the other meant by the uneasiness. Did they already know that the crazy old eight had been killed? Perhaps the people of the "Kowloon Society" have realized that their own people have been killed, so they have made waves on the road and disrupted the chess game of many big people.

At the beginning, the Illuminati used the hands of the "Kowloon Society" to kidnap Alex, not to cause a bigger dispute, but afterwards Rockefeller only warned the "Kowloon Society" and did not take any drastic action. I'm afraid I'm also worried that the other party will mess around regardless of a qiē.

Now Alex has killed two capable leaders of the "Kowloon Society" one after another. It is estimated that it has caused earth-shattering waves in places that cannot be seen. As for who it will affect, Alex doesn't care very much, he is concerned about whether there is a Carpenter family in the target of the "Kowloon Society".

Thinking of this, he quickly picked up the phone. Inform his bodyguard organization. Added a few more men to the rest of the Carpenter family.

A few days later. Alex flew to Washington, D.C., and drove to the headquarters building on Penn Street.

The building faces Pennsylvania Avenue and is just a few blocks away from the White House. Every year when the president is sworn in, he passes by here.

The building is built boxy, not very tall, estimated to be about ten floors. The beige walls are covered with lattices that make it impossible for outsiders to peek inside through these black holes, which are said to prevent the blockers.

Around the perimeter of the building, American flags are planted diagonally on the walls every few meters. These flags fluttered in the wind, and there was a very political atmosphere, which made the air much more solemn.

Looking at this building, looking down on others like a beast, Alex couldn't help but "trace" the relevant information.

The FBI's primary responsibilities include fighting criminal gangs, terrorist activities, and foreign espionage. Assist state and local police in identifying and tracking fugitives from state to state, disseminate information on the most wanted criminals, and provide training and research in the search for criminals.

The bureau has 1o functional departments headed by assistant directors, in charge of identification, training, criminal investigation, technical services, etc., and has set up field offices in 59 cities across the country and more than 4oo "local branches" subordinate to them, as well as overseas offices in 22 countries around the world to carry out the tasks assigned by the headquarters.

The bureau has more than 20,000 staff members, of which more than 86oo are field personnel. The annual budget is $2.3 billion. The bureau has a "scientific practice room" for criminal offenses, a central fingerprint archive and an "academy" dedicated to training senior agents and police.

Alex had already called the flanked man before he arrived, and when he arrived, someone was already waiting for him, and without a few words of nonsense, he was taken to an inconspicuous hut.

The leader was a lady in a black uniform, her head was already a little gray, and she was probably an old man. She didn't talk a lot, her voice was very good, and she didn't show any look at Alex, a celebrity, but received her very calmly.

Maybe she has usually received too many powerful people, as for star singers or something, it is not surprising.

"The Director is inside!" The lady said to him.

"Okay, thank you!"

Alex took a deep breath and pushed the door in, where he saw a fat old man standing inside. If you look closely, it is indeed Director Hoover, who you usually see in the newspapers.

Director Hoover faced Alex sternly, his eyes sharp, like a falcon hunting in the air. His head was a little sparse, his face was broad and fleshy, and it was hard to believe that Hoover was a gay man from his appearance.

In addition, Hoover has a dignified aura like a mountain, and his every move can affect the people around him.

"Hello! Alex, please be seated! Hoover pointed to the chair in front of the table, a chair made of mahogany that looked like an antique from before the Civil War.

Alex looked at him in surprise, and thought to himself, "It seems that someone already knows about Director Hoover." Maybe the other party has been waiting for him to arrive! ”

"Hello, Director Hoover!" Instead of listening to the other man's words, Alex sat down, but greeted him with a smile and held out his right hand.

"You may be seated!"

Director Hoover said again, ignoring Alex's greeting, and pacing around the room with a frown.

Seeing this, Alex sneered, withdrew his right hand, and sat down. He couldn't take his eyes off Director Hoover for half a second, staring closely at the other party walking back and forth.

Attempts to steal information from Director Hoover were unsuccessful. But there should still be a chance. As long as you haven't left the F-force headquarters.

Thinking of this, the initial tension has gradually subsided, but the sense of oppression given by Director Hoover still exists. I'm afraid this is the result of Hoover's many years of accumulation, and even an outsider can clearly feel it.

"I heard you're making a sci-fi film?"

What I didn't expect was. Director Hoover's first sentence was "Planet of the Apes". I don't know why this film attracted the attention of the other party.

"Yes. This is a story about the future world of orangutans replacing humans as the master of the earth! Alex stared at Hoover as he walked back and forth, smiling as he answered the question.

"Sounds like a lot of fun, but when it's time to shoot, you'll have to invite me to the screening!"

Director Hoover's expression was still stern and serious. But from the point of view of words, it seems that he wants to get closer to Alex.

"Definitely!" Alex replied.

"But I've heard that your script alludes to our country's race?"

Unexpectedly, Hoover suddenly led the topic in a very sharp direction, and before Alex could make a defense, he said to himself: "You have to be careful, very careful!" Now the situation is very grim, the whole black class in our country is going to openly rebel! ”

"Uh, I'll pay attention!"

Alex could only come up with this sentence in the end, because he always felt that no matter what he said, the other party would see it as a quibble. Since this is the case, then it is better to say less and make fewer mistakes, and not to say good.

Director Hoover didn't dwell on this question, but suddenly stopped and asked, "You know Nicholas?" Tesla? ”

Nicholas? Tesla?

When Alex heard the name, his spirit immediately became highly concentrated, and his whole body was like electricity, and his hairs stood on end.

"Of course I do! Of course I know the great scientist Mr. Tesla, but unfortunately he passed away shortly after I was born. ”

"Yes, he's an amazing big guy!" Director Hoover nodded, then continued, "So do you have any interest in Tesla's manuscript?" ”

Tesla is said to have achieved nearly 1ooo in his lifetime, and even more legendary, he also built flying saucers, predicted the two world wars and the sinking of the Titanic, and caused an earth-shattering explosion in Tunguska.

When he died, the United States forced his design drawings to be confiscated, and the U.S. government listed his research results in top secret!

Originally, these were rumors that were difficult to distinguish between true and false for Alex, and he never thought of looking for Tesla things. But when he learned that the world wasn't simple, he suddenly had a new perspective on these things.

Maybe true! Alex used to think so in his heart.

Now Director Herbert Hoover personally asked him if he was interested in the manuscript left by Tesla. This kind of thing is like pie in the sky, the person who is hit will feel very happy, and at the same time there will be a question: "Why me?" ”

Of course, Alex did not express his doubts, but immediately said loudly, "Very interested, sir! I'm interested in all the things about Tesla! ”

Director Hoover smiled silently, but it quickly disappeared, and it was still a stern expression. He didn't say anything, but walked around the house from scratch. His degree was so fast that it gradually stirred up the air in the room.

Seeing the other party's abnormal reaction, Alex immediately said again: "May I ask Mr. Hoover, what are you looking for me for?" If there's anything you need help with, don't hesitate! ”

After a while, Director Hoover said, "We want your help to crack the code on Tesla's manuscript and find a secret base!" ”

Secret base?

When did Tesla have a secret base again? Alex was a little puzzled, according to historical records. Tesla was destitute before he died, and a poor old man who didn't even have a house even had a secret base.

However, Alex could not have asked such a stupid question, and he believed that in due course, the other party would definitely sue him. Even if he didn't say it, he had a way of stealing information from Hoover.

"This base was commissioned by the government to build Tesla, and there are some instruments commissioned by the government to be manufactured by Mr. Tesla, but unfortunately, no one knows how to open the gate of the base. You have to crack the password set by Mr. Tesla to enter. ”

"Wait a minute. Why not open the gates of the base by violent means? ”

"No, there's no way we can open it this way. Although in 1943, the U.S. Navy tried to break into the base, and as a result, it was on a business trip. ”

"But ......"

"No, whatever!" Director Hoover interrupted Alex. He quickly said, "You just need to crack the code on the manuscript." That could be one or more sets of numbers. You don't have to worry about anything else. I'm telling you seriously, don't bother with that! ”

Alex shrugged his shoulders and nodded helplessly. Although I think it's a little strange that they specially found themselves to crack the code, but thinking that his recent appearance is really too eye-catching, it is estimated that mysterious organizations such as Freemasonry and Illuminati have paid attention, so it is only natural that the F. Gang will ask him for help.

"We have asked many cryptographers to crack this manuscript, but unfortunately everyone has been able to succeed!"

After Director Hoover finished speaking, he walked over to the desk and pressed the button next to the phone: "Miss Gandy, please bring Document No. 13 to the office!" ”

"Yes, Mr. Director!"

The voice on the phone was somewhat familiar, and when I thought about it, it turned out to be the lady who had led Alex here. However, judging from Director Hoover's words, this very old lady is not even married, otherwise Hoover would not have called her "Miss".

After a while, a gray-haired Miss Gandy walked in with a bag of Wen Jiàn, and she handed it to Hoover and asked, "Is there anything else I can help with?" ”

Director Hoover said kindly, "Thank you! Not for the time being! ”

Miss Gandy nodded, pushed the door open and walked out of the office. After Director Hoover saw her leave, he handed the text to Alex.

"This is the manuscript that Tesla left behind, you can only look at it here, and if you need people or tools or something, you can tell me. If you think it will take a long time and the room, you can also bring it up! ”

"Let me see it first!" Alex couldn't wait to open the bag, and there were a total of more than a dozen manuscript papers in it, densely written a lot, in addition to the words and artwork.

I flipped through it carefully, and the writing on it was very messy, some were design drafts related to electromagnetic equipment, some were memory fragments of daily life, some were wild thoughts, and even speculation about the unified force field of the universe and so on.

However, Alex still had a question, he frowned and asked, "Why isn't this the original?" ”

"Of course it's not the original, it's a highly realistic copy of the manuscript, and the original is still locked in the warehouse!"

"I have to see the original!" Alex said firmly.

Director Hoover stared into Alex's eyes and asked, "Why?" The original is exactly the same as this copy, and I don't think you need to look at the original to unlock the code! ”

Alex shook his head and said, "There is a big difference between the original and the copy!" After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if you move art, for example, there is a big difference between the original painting of a great painter and a counterfeit of it. Even though they seem to be the same, they are very different in what they can't see. ”

"That sounds interesting." Hoover groaned, wondering if Alex's words were fooling people.

"For example, some painters' works make people look as if they have their own souls, while fakes are just similar in form but not in spirit. It can be said that Mr. Tesla's level is far from all scientists on the earth, and his works must have a soul of independence! ”

After hearing this, Director Hoover seemed to have somewhat agreed with Alex. He thought for a moment and said, "If you want to see the original, it may be more troublesome, and you have to go through a certain procedure to get your hands on it." ”

"I'm still young, so there's plenty of time to wait!" Alex replied with a smile.

"Okay, then you go back and wait for the news, and we'll let you know!"

Alex nodded, put the copy in his hand on the table, turned to look at Hoover and said, "Then I'll wait for good news!" After he finished speaking, he naturally stretched out his right hand.

Director Hoover looked at his outstretched right hand, and hesitated for a second or two, not knowing what was going on in his mind, before finally extending his right hand as well.

It was a strong hand, and when Alex held it, he felt that something was wrong. In the past, when there was physical contact with someone, as long as it was his target, there would be an immediate transmission of an electric shock, big and small, long and short. This is based on the strength of the other party's soul information, and of course, only Alex himself can feel it.

But after shaking hands with Hoover today, nothing was born, there was no sense of electricity, and the puppets in the space were not activated.

What's going on? Could it be that the ability is not working?

The first time Alex encountered such a thing, he quietly shook hands with Hoover and said, "Then I'll take my leave!" ”

Director Hoover looked at Alex with a strange expression, and for the first time said with a smile on his face, "Okay, Miss Gandy will take you out!" ”

After saying that, the two let go of their hands, and Alex turned around and left, not daring to stay for another second. As for Director Hoover, he watched Alex leave, then looked down at his right palm, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a few seconds, Director Hoover pulled a white handkerchief out of his pocket and used it to carefully wipe his hand over and over again. (To be continued!)

ps: I'm so dizzy these days! I went to the hospital for an examination and said that it was otitis externa, and I took some medicine, but I don't know if it's good or not!
