"Director, the "Dark Star" sent top-secret information, confirming that the Chinese intelligence agencies have recently made large-scale moves, and a number of agents of our infiltrated Chinese military industrial system are believed to have fallen under the control of the Chinese intelligence agencies.

Unclear about the intentions of the higher-ups, in order to avoid unnecessary losses caused by this big operation, "Dark Star" asked for instructions, and if there was no special operation, he needed to lurk silently. Snyder reported to Norland.

"Is there something wrong with us that caused the leak of the information, which led to a backlash from the Chinese intelligence agencies?" Norland looked at Snyder, frowned, and instead of following Snyder's words, he asked another question.

"It's possible." Snyder seems to have been prepared for the director's question, "Judging from the scale of this action, the scale of this operation of the Chinese intelligence agency is unprecedented, if it were not for something special, there would not be such a big action, but there is no direct evidence to judge that this operation is related to our action."

The "Dark Star" intelligence received so far shows that most of the actions of the Chinese intelligence agencies this time are focused on military operations. Due to the recent frequent breakthroughs in the military industry by the Chinese side, the nails we have laid are somewhat active and have sent back a large amount of high-value information, so we cannot rule out that these nails have led to a large-scale purge on the Chinese side. Snyder apparently analyzed the whole situation and did not have a preconceived judgment based on the actions he was responsible for.

Although the timing of this big operation launched by the Chinese intelligence agencies is delicate.

"In addition, according to the report of Peripheral Intelligence Gathering Agent Matt, who failed in his job with Lex, who seems to have a sense of professional honor to his Chinese boss, Matt did not rule out the possibility that Lex revealed certain information to his Chinese boss."

"From the intelligence sent back by Dark Star, we have not found a direct connection between these actions and Duke, because all national security operations so far have been aimed at infiltration of the military-industrial system. Judging by this information, I personally tend to believe that China's action is most likely an internal purge. ”

Due to Mr. Liu's decision, Qin Tairan, the deputy general manager of the military industry, directly served as the head of the Duke security task force, and directly enabled another set of people and horses to be responsible for the security work around Duke, this division of labor was determined by Qin Tairan and Kong Xiangcheng through consultation, and all the information exchange between their two sets of people was completed through Qin Tairan and Kong Xiangcheng face-to-face, and there was no personnel handover between the two sets of people.

Qin Tairan and Kong Xiangcheng are old foxes who have worked on the secret front for many years, and they know that the best way to keep secrets is to keep the people below in the dark, and the Chinese side can plant nails in the key positions of the CIA headquarters, and it is difficult to ensure that the CIA does not do the same thing inside our system, although we have regular internal security audits and other measures, it is difficult to prevent this kind of infiltration.

It's this kind of cat-and-mouse game between intelligence agencies, but the roles are often reversed.

Because of this, although Kong Xiangcheng's operation is very large-scale, there is no point that is directly related to Duke, and even if the national security system receives any news, Kong Xiangcheng directly transmits it to Qin Tairan, and Qin Tairan's task force sends people to carry it out, and the national security personnel are completely blocked.

Snyder did not expect that the Chinese side would have two independent systems responsible for Duke's security, and in his experience, the Chinese side has never used this method to work—this is not China's institutional way of working, but the result of Mr. Liu and Qin Tairan, who have a deep understanding of Duke's role and promote it with their own strength.

Faced with this extremely rare and entirely exceptional situation, it is not surprising that Snyder's judgment is skewed. Just as he wondered why a scientific and technological genius like Duke did not directly enter the control of the Chinese military, if the Chinese side suspected that there was something wrong behind Duke's amazing performance, China must have special measures for Duke, but there were no measures.

It is for this reason that Snyder will ask for a first-level mission to verify whether Duke is really related to aliens, and if so, Snyder will even find out the connection, whether it is an alien relic or a living alien, Snyder wants to find him before the Chinese authorities.

Through Duke's comprehensive analysis, Snyder feels that even if Duke has a relationship with aliens, it is obvious that Duke did not confess this shocking secret to the Chinese official, otherwise China would not let Duke run around the world, and the United States, Africa, Maldives and other countries Duke are unimpeded.

After listening to Snyder's analysis, Director Noland closed his eyes and thought for a while before he opened his eyes and asked, "What do you think of the request of the "Dark Star"?" ”

"We need the 'dark star' to confirm whether the actions of the Chinese national security agencies are against our plans, because if it turns out that this is a plan against us, then it is clear that there is a hole in our internal leadership, and this is a very fatal hole that we have to close. Snyder apparently did not agree with Dark Star's dormancy, severing all contact with the CIA to ensure his own safety.

Although it can be inferred from common sense, at this moment, the "Dark Star" is silent and does nothing, and it is the safest self-protection strategy to not contact anyone. Because in this kind of large-scale operation of China's national security system, there are often hidden internal anti-latent covert operations, just like Snyder can judge whether there are nails inside by whether the Chinese side is targeting Duke.

China's national security system also has corresponding measures to monitor whether there is leakage of internal operations to determine whether there are problematic people inside. So in this case, the "dark star" should be safe by doing nothing like a stone sinking to the bottom of the water.

However, since Snyder's plan had just begun, he encountered this kind of accident, and Snyder was even more anxious to find out whether his plan had leaked out. Although the identities of the nails in the military industrial system have been leaked, it is still impossible to see any direct connection with Duke, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Kong Xiangcheng and Qin Tairan used all the information that Guoan had in the past this time, and in the military industrial system, it is not only for the units that cooperate with Duke, but in full bloom, and all R&D institutions that have made major breakthroughs in military equipment research have launched security actions.

This kind of thing is naturally the specialty of veterans like Kong Xiangcheng and Qin Tairan.

(Thanks to the book friend "RJ Penguin" for the generous reward, I should have added more thanks, but now that people are floating in the field, I really can't spare time, this is more for the time being, and I will make up for it when I go home.) ）
