At 22:00 local time, there was no light in the office of Chen Linzhong, a Chinese-American professor at the State University of New York, but the light from the window could still see Professor Chen's depressed demeanor sitting in his office chair.

For nearly a month, Professor Chen's overload has been pushing his limits, not from his faculty and staff, but from his other little-known identity, the NSA's North American Regional Command No. 1 commander, who is responsible for running the intelligence network throughout North America, and has been in the position for eight years.

As once the best agent in the Eastern Hemisphere, Chen Linzhong also has outstanding leadership skills, and his achievements in North America, the most important intelligence region in the world, are quite convincing, but just in the past month, Chen Linzhong and the North American intelligence system he is responsible for controlling and dispatching are facing an unprecedented crisis since he took office!

The autumn wind rises at the end of Qingping!

The origin of this crisis is a major explosion of the American scientific community, or in other words, the world that has been bottlenecked and stagnant for decades has ushered in an unprecedented and huge scientific and technological explosion that is about to occur:

In March, after eight years of research, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Dr. Masson finally found a way to achieve controlled thermonuclear fusion.

In April, the artificial intelligence system "Zeus" independently developed by the Stanford School of Engineering passed the Turing test, and the artificial intelligence technology revolution opened a historic chapter.

In May, Fu Yanbo, the youngest Fields Medal winner in the history of almost all mathematics awards in the world, known as the "god", successfully discovered a new mathematical theorem known as the atomic bomb of mathematics after solving several mathematical problems in a row;

In the same month, Jiang Yi, a doctor of bioinformatics from Princeton University, successfully cracked the bioinformatics code, and mankind entered the "forbidden zone of God" that had never set foot in

These four huge scientific breakthroughs, which were thought to take hundreds of years to gestation, ushered in an unprecedented explosion in just one year, and the world was shocked at the same time, people invariably discovered that the starting point of these four scientific and technological revolutions was actually Chinese geniuses! The coincidence is like God rolling four dice of the same number, but it seems reasonable for the United States, as a gathering of the world's scientific and technological talents.

However, what really woke the United States up from the dream of continuing to guide the scientific and technological revolution of all mankind was an event that everyone did not expect: Fu Yanbo, the god of mathematics in the new era, suddenly appeared in Beijing on the third day after discovering a new mathematical theorem, and announced to the public that he would renounce his American citizenship, join the National Academy of Sciences of China and teach at the university, the world was once again shocked, and the United States was even more shocked, and they knew very well that Fu Yanbo's return would bring breakthroughs in China's aerospace, communications and other fields. This will certainly greatly threaten the hegemonic position of the United States, and the United States has even regarded this incident as "the greatest loss to the American scientific community since the twentieth century."

The Americans who came to their senses immediately took measures to raise the control of the remaining three young Chinese scientists - Ma Song, Tang Song, and Jiang Yi - to the height of national security, and they believed that the biggest negligence of Fu Yanbo's return time was that they underestimated the national identity of the Chinese and the centripetal force of today's ethnic groups. They have also become a huge potential enemy of US national security, and once the academic core they master and their own god-level capabilities are mastered by China, the United States will most likely lose the crown of world leaders.

For this reason, American politics is divided into two opposing factions:

The fierce faction believes that the existence of these three scientists of Chinese descent has become a huge time bomb and an X-factor in Sino-US competition, and that tough measures must be taken to strictly control these three people, and even kill them if necessary, so as to ensure the national security and international status of the United States!

Moderates, on the other hand, believe that the Fu Yanbo incident is just a small probability accident, and that there is no need for the United States to be overly sensitive or even rise to the height of life and death, and if the government uses strong means to monitor the three people, it will inevitably arouse their disgust and backlash and even the entire scientific community, and this will also greatly restrict their scientific creativity, thereby destroying the revolutionary progress in related fields, which will be a crime against all mankind.

At the same time that the two factions are arguing, the US military and intelligence system, as representatives of the fierce faction, have taken the lead in taking measures and unprecedentedly opened the highest level of national security warning - red alert!

Although the fierce response plan has not yet won and obtained authorization, the CIA has already begun an operation codenamed "Predator" within its control, launching covert surveillance of the three Chinese geniuses, and setting the red line of the operation to take extreme measures including assassination in the event of any change in the three of them! The U.S. Secretary of Defense and the CIA Director designated the head of operations as the CIA's Chief of State Covert Operations, Ron Brown, known as "Skua." Palmas, this ruthless and spicy former CIA ace agent is Chen Linzhong's old rival, Chen Linzhong has never had the upper hand in the eight years of confrontation between the two, and this time the situation is quite complicated!

After Chen Linzhong deciphered the action code of the CIA's "Predator" through special channels, he quickly informed China of the details, and the instructions replied by the top level of the National Security Bureau were: Ensure the safety of the three Chinese scientists at all costs, and there must be no mistakes, which is not only about the future of the Chinese world, but also about the future of human science and technology!

After receiving the order, Chen Linzhong quickly activated the agent network in North America to protect the three of them, but within an hour of the activation order, the three outlets in California, Massachusetts, and Arkansas were devastated, and the elite agents in the three states did not survive, Chen Linzhong quickly terminated the activation operation to ensure that the loss of the North American network would not continue to expand.

Faced with the NSA's biggest defeat in North America in nearly two decades, the elegant professor, who had always been wary and peaceful, realized that the opponent he faced this time would be more powerful and prepared than ever. The demon Palmas was deciphered through the "Predator" operation code, and concentrated the CIA's elite forces to counter-decipher and grasp the pulse of the NSA's North American special intelligence network, and from the moment the activation command was activated, the NSA North America was about to face a terrifying opponent who was unknown in the dark and could attack at any time, thus losing the initiative on the battlefield.

Chen Linzhong knew that Ron. Palmas did not choose to continue the attack, more like a warning to him, do not interfere in the "predator" plan, otherwise it will be a devastating blow to the North American region of the National Security Bureau, and what shook Chen Linzhong's determination even more was that through the investigation, he learned that Ma Song, Tang Song and Jiang Yi are different from Fu Yanbo in that they did not show a strong desire to return to China in the past, and the three who obtained American citizenship early have always tended to work and live in the United States. Chen Linzhong began to weigh whether it was necessary for the country's most elite special agents to take huge risks to protect the three scientists, but the future variables made him unable to be completely sure whether the three would change their original intentions, just like Fu Yanbo said, "I want to change the world in my own country", who can say the future trend.

Just when Chen Linzhong was in a violent inner game, the CIA's Neiying suddenly informed him an hour ago that Tang Song had escaped CIA surveillance with the help of a mysterious Chinese man in San Francisco!

Chen Linzhong was stunned, he had already issued an order to require all national security agents in North America to stop any action to ensure safety, so no one would act without authorization, after the subsequent confirmation of the whole network, Chen Linzhong was even more sure that it was not his own people who assisted Tang Song to escape, and in this extraordinary period, whether the appearance of this mysterious person would cause the CIA's crazy retaliation was the first thing he had to consider, after all, the opponent at this time was the ruthless old thief Pamás!

Just a second before Chen Linzhong was about to report the situation to China, his secret mobile phone suddenly rang - it was an unconventional communication channel, and it was the second time since he took office that it rang.

Chen Linzhong pressed the call button smoothly, he didn't speak, but listened to the clear and deep voice coming from the other end of the phone, "Mr. Chen, I'm a hummingbird, I'm going to New Jersey now, and I need the assistance of the North American Bureau." ”

Chen Linzhong raised his head and stared directly at the darkness in front of him, twenty minutes ago he had just picked up the first call of this secret line phone, it was a crisp and clean female voice, "I am a hummingbird!" ”
