In the middle of the night, Chu Tianjiang was awakened by the noise of the TV.

In the living room, Janet wrapped Chu Tianjiang's shirt and kept adjusting the channel with the remote control, and it seemed that she had never found the TV program she wanted to watch.

"Aren't you going to sleep so late?"

"Got you?" Janet lowered her voice a bit.

Chu Tianjiang walked over and sat down next to Janet. "What are you looking for?"

Although Diego Garcia is far away from the center of the world and more than 1,000 kilometers from the nearest city, the US military has built a radio and television center, which can not only watch more than 100 television channels from more than 10 television stations in the United States, but also watch the satellite channels of dozens of national television stations.

"Look at it, the whole world is now broadcasting this news." Janet tuned to the Chinese international channel.

After reading the news report, Chu Tianjiang tightened his brows.

Chinese state television has publicly admitted that it has discovered an asteroid about 10 kilometers in diameter that is approaching Earth. The TV station also invited an astronomer named Song Wenjie to give a detailed account of the asteroid and analyze the possibility of the asteroid hitting the Earth. After using a lot of terms that ordinary people simply don't understand, the middle-aged astronomer came to the conclusion that the probability of a celestial body with a diameter of ten kilometers hitting the earth is extremely slim, not more than one in 100 million, so everyone should not worry.

Television stations in other member states of the Planetary Defense Council have also reported on this, and some have done it more thoroughly.

For example, when CNN TV reported on the United States, it broadcast an episode of popular science film about an asteroid hitting the earth, introducing that about 65 million years ago, a similar asteroid hit the earth and caused the extinction of the dinosaurs, emphasizing that the probability of an asteroid hitting the earth is very low, on average once every 200 million to 300 million years, so the probability of this asteroid hitting the earth is very low.

All the TV stations have emphasized one point, that is, for what is the discovery of this asteroid now.

Of course, the reason is the same, that is, the asteroid just entered the flare region produced by the explosion of the sun's nucleus, which produced a strong reflection and was detected by astronomical observation equipment. Prior to this, because it was far from the sun, the reflections produced were not strong enough to be detected by astronomical equipment.

Obviously, this is something extraordinary.

Prior to this, television stations in various countries in the world were focusing on the political turmoil in Japan and the impact of the new Japanese government on the situation in the world and the surrounding situation.

The Planetary Defense Council will not publish information related to the 2014X1 asteroid without a special reason.

Obviously, the published information is not necessarily the truth.

For example, all the TV stations emphasized in their reports that the probability of an asteroid hitting the Earth is very slim, which is precisely not true.

Something very serious must have happened, otherwise the Planetary Defense Council would not have created and guided public opinion.

Chu Tianjiang picked up the phone microphone and prepared to call Zhang Xiaogang to inquire about the situation.

Janet rolled over and leaned on Chu Tianjiang's body, bringing the pair of firm and elastic twin peaks under her shirt in front of him, her hips constantly twisting and stimulating him.

"Jenny, don't mess around." Chu Tianjiang began to use nicknames, indicating that he had a greater affection for Janet.

"Even if the sky is about to fall, it's not our turn to worry."

Chu Tianjiang smiled and put down the phone microphone. This is also the truth, he is just a doomsday warrior, if there is a place where he can be used, Zhang Xiaogang will definitely call.

"Tianjiang, do you love me?"

Janet suddenly asked this question, which made Chu Tianjiang very surprised, and he didn't know how to answer.

"Do you love me?" Janet asked again.

"This is important?"

Janet nodded and said, "If the World Realm will be destroyed tomorrow, this is the only question I want to ask, and you must answer it. ”

"Do you love me?" Chu Tianjiang asked rhetorically.

"Love!" Janet replied decisively.

"For what?" Chu Tianjiang didn't believe it, because he didn't know much about Janet, and the relationship was limited to the physiological needs of both parties.

"Does love need a reason?"

"Absolutely."

"Really?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded, these words reminded him of lines from a movie.

"Because you're so much like my brother."

"What!?" Chu Tianjiang thought he had heard it wrong.

"You're a lot like my brother Jamie."

Chu Tianjiang looked at Janet and felt that this girl either had bad habits or was lying. Could it be that she has been fantasizing about going over the clouds with her brother?

"Did Zhang tell you about me?"

"Some, but not much."

"Do I have to work for him?"

Chu Tianjiang didn't say anything, although Zhang Xiaogang mentioned it, but looking at Janet's current performance, Zhang Xiaogang at least didn't finish the matter.

"Jamie is a fourth-class gun sergeant who served in the bomb disposal unit."

"So, he's amazing?"

"Don't interject, listen to me." Janet pressed Chu Tianjiang's lips with her hand and said, "Two years ago, he completed his fifth operational deployment in Afghanistan and returned to Boston. At my begging, he applied to retire from the military and became a patrol officer with the Municipal Police Department. ”

"Why don't you let him continue to serve?"

"Listen to me." Janet patted Chu Tianjiang on the face and told him to shut up. "A month later, he was killed in the line of duty in an operation to hunt down a serial killer."

"This ......"

"He is my only relative, and my dearest relative. Jamie was eleven years older than me, and when I was eight years old, my parents were killed in a traffic accident. In order to raise me, Jamie gave up the opportunity to attend a state college and chose to serve. In order to support me through Harvard University, he not only volunteered to serve in the bomb disposal unit, but also went on a series of missions in Afghanistan to receive an overseas deployment allowance. ”

"After you graduated from college, you want him to stay?"

"That's what I had to do to join the CIA."

"What?"

"At that time, I had passed all the CIA exams, and I was specifically approached by CIA officials to take on a special assignment."

"Plotting against Zhang Xiaogang?"

Janet nodded and said, "At that time, Jamie's military service contract still had three years to expire, and he had to be sent to Afghanistan for at least two one-year deployments. As a condition, I offered to let Jamie retire early and receive the full retirement allowance. ”

"The CIA agreed?"

"Yes. The CIA also allowed Jamie to pass the City Police Department's exam to become a patrol officer. ”

"So there's no reason for you to ......"

"This is before I met Zhang Xiaogang."

"This ......"

"After meeting Zhang Xiaogang, I learned that the CIA asked Jamie to retire and arranged for him to enter the city police department, which was actually to control me."

Chu Tianjiang's eyes widened, and he looked at Janet in disbelief.

"You should know that it is a very risky action to rebel against Zhang Xiaogang, and in order to prevent me from betraying, the CIA needs to use Jamie to control me." Janet sighed and said, "In your words, people are not as good as heaven. A month later, Jamie was killed in the line of duty. What's more, the serial killer Jamie is chasing is a CIA intelligence officer and an insider. ”

"That's all Zhang Xiaogang told you?"

Janet nodded and said, "That intelligence officer knows everything and believes that humanity will be completely wiped out. After losing control of his mind, he first went home and killed his wife and children, then began to kill other relatives, and finally climbed the tower of Boston Harbor with a sniper rifle and began shooting innocent people at will. In order to prevent leakage, the CIA forged an order for Jamie to join the assault force entering the tower, and ordered Jamie to kill the killer to prevent the killer from telling the story after his arrest. ”

"This ......"

"The situation was so urgent that the State Police's SWAT unit and FBI agents were preparing to storm the tower. If the murderer falls into their hands, it is very likely that he will confess to the truth. In order to prevent leaks, the CIA threatened me with Jamie to get rid of the killer for them. ”

"The FBI doesn't know?"

"So far, the FBI has no knowledge. However, judging by the initial news reports, the FBI may soon find out about the Planetary Defense Council. ”

"Jamie's tragic death made you decide to do something for Zhang Xiaogang?"

"Sort of." Janet smiled and said, "Zhang Xiaogang must have told you that before me, there was another spy who wanted to rebel against him, but he saw through it and ended up in a different place. The spy joined the CIA in the same year as me, and his background is very similar to mine. After being killed in action, her family began to find out the truth, but it didn't end well, and all of them died in accidents in the past year. ”

"This ......"

"For the sake of secrecy, the CIA does everything."

"Everybody's the same." Chu Tianjiang sighed, he felt that saying this would make Janet feel better. "If these things had happened to Zhang Xiaogang, he would have done the same thing."

"Maybe. You're a lot like Jamie, both are upright soldiers, and you're ......"

"And what?"

Janet smiled and said, "I won't tell you, but you're a lot like Jamie anyway." I feel safe by your side, so I love you. ”

"You're going to sleep with me just because you're safe?"

"Of course not, there are others."

"Anything else?"

"I won't tell you."

Without waiting for Chu Tianjiang to speak again, Janet's moist lips came up, sucking greedily, and Zhi Lu Dao took Chu Tianjiang's tongue into his mouth.

After some passionate teasing, Chu Tianjiang was willing to give up and hugged Janet into the bedroom.

When Chu Tianjiang and Agent Jenny went to Wushan Yunyu, Zhang Xiaogang was very busy. He is the initiator and shoulders the heavy responsibility of guiding the press and public opinion. According to the arrangement of the meeting of the chiefs of general staff, Zhang Xiaogang is responsible for reviewing all public information before disseminating it to the national television stations of the member states, or to the major television stations that secretly cooperate with the Planetary Defense Council. As for the astronomers hired by various TV stations, such as Professor Song Wenjie of China, they are also members of the Planetary Defense Council.

News and public opinion can only be guided, and the key is to announce the appropriate information at the right time.

In the first round of public opinion guidance, Zhang Xiaogang emphasized that the probability of an asteroid hitting the earth is extremely slim, but did not give accurate data.

The reason is that even national astronomical agencies can take some time to calculate the orbit of an asteroid.

If all goes well, in the second round of public opinion guidance, well-known astronomers from various countries, such as Professor Burke, will authoritatively announce that the probability of an asteroid hitting the Earth is only one in 100 million. Of course, there are some differences in the probabilities claimed by astronomers from different countries. As long as public opinion is properly guided, these differences will occupy most of the time of the news programs of major television stations and become the main topic of debate.

If necessary, a third round of public opinion guidance is also needed.

It's just that Zhang Xiaogang hasn't figured out how to proceed yet. Although some commissioners suggested deepening the "impact topic", such as pulling out the consequences of an asteroid hitting the Earth, so that scientists at the Planetary Defense Council could make a lot of nonsense, Zhang Xiaogang did not feel the need for this. After discussing with Luo Jinyong, Zhang Xiaogang felt that it was best to lead the topic to the speed of the asteroid, that is, the asteroid reached the speed of one thousandth of the light, basically reaching the relative speed, that is, it would produce some special physical phenomena mentioned by Einstein in the theory of relativity.

Stretching out the topic is enough to attract the public's attention in a matter of days.

It is important to know that the theory of relativity and quantum theory were born nearly 100 years ago and are still the two pillars of modern physics, and mankind has not yet made a major breakthrough in basic theory.

At this time, the busiest person is not Zhang Xiaogang.

Zhang Xiaogang is responsible for guiding public opinion, and Luo Jinyong is responsible for researching the cause of the 2014X1 asteroid emitting light.

If there are still traces of public opinion guidance, then the latter is completely starting from scratch.

Luo Jinyong first ruled out the possibility that the asteroid would emit light through a heat source, or an energy source known to mankind. In the Earth's low earth orbit and on the ground, there are always more than two multispectral telescopes staring at the 2014X1 asteroid, and no abnormal changes in the asteroid's temperature have been found, nor have they detected signs of radiation such as X-rays and γ-rays, nor have they found particle streams such as electrons and neutrons.

2014X1 emits a cold light, and the light source is inside the asteroid.

There is no plausible explanation for this other than the extraterrestrial civilization deliberately allowing the asteroid to emit light.

The question is, what do extraterrestrial civilizations want to make asteroids shine?

Is it worried that humans have not discovered asteroids so that humans can see more clearly?

Luo Jinyong has always believed that if the 2014X1 asteroid soft-lands on the earth, then the extraterrestrial civilization that controls the asteroid has extremely developed science and technology, and must know the defensive measures taken by human beings, so it should know that human beings have discovered the threat.

If this is the case, there is no reason for extraterrestrial civilizations to let asteroids shine as a reminder to humanity.

Luo Jinyong felt that he was not engaged in scientific research, but sat at the table and gambled with his opponent, and he didn't even know how many cards his opponent had.

In this big gamble on the future, does humanity have any hope of winning?
