Chapter 518: Strong Reinforcements
"These are members of the SRT Special Response Team," Charles introduced to the rest of the room one by one of the helpers who would follow him to Houston.
"DeLong, the captain of the SRT," as Charles's voice sounded, and the person he had introduced stood up and greeted the rest of the room with his eyes.
The SRT captain named Delong was a muscular man with a somewhat bald hair, but the iron-blooded aura of a soldier exuded from his body was not affected in the slightest. Delong's face is very stiff, and the stubble on his face makes him look very manly.
Deron glanced at the others and said with a blank expression, "You can also call me 'Trench'. ”
"Dolph, nicknamed 'The Undertaker,' is a dangerous guy," Charles continued, introducing the SRT team he had brought in, "just kidding. ”
A middle-aged, blonde man, beardless and his face as angular as a knife and axe carving, stood up. Michio greeted everyone with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the gaze in his eyes seemed to have been frozen, and those who were swept by his eyes would unconsciously feel a little chill.
"'Undertaker' ......," Jason silently muttered Michio's nickname, feeling an illusion of walking with death in this man.
Michio doesn't seem to be restrained by his momentum, and enjoys the unnatural reactions of others under his own sense of oppression. He was tall and tall, standing there like a straight spear, and the cold light on the tip of the spear was his eyes.
"Greetings, Maggie," Charles gestured to the only woman among the unfamiliar faces.
"Guys, you can call me Maggie or Snowflake," Maggie has long brown hair, the lines of her face are very soft, just the opposite of Delon and Dolph, her eyes become deep when she speaks, like a hunting feline, and her body is sturdy but not bloated, and her slender legs perfectly match the characteristics of her Latino woman.
"The rest of you are Qian," an Asian man stood up as Charles introduced him.
Qian's height is far inferior to Deron and Michio, and even only on par with Maggie. Jason roughly estimated that the height of the man with the eastern face was about 1.72 to 1.75 meters.
"Gan is of Bagan descent, nicknamed 'Yin and Yang', if you think his strength is the same as his height, you are very wrong," Charles said with a smile, he seems to have a good idea of Gan's strength, and he is very confident, "These SRT members are the elite of the Department of Homeland Security, and they not only have strength far beyond ordinary people, but also have extraordinary luck. ”
"Welcome to Houston," Dr. Mario nodded to Charles' helpers, "and I hope you have a good time doing your work here." ”
"Welcome, Charles, welcome," Rick stood up and shook hands with Charles and the others, who had never met the director of the War Readiness Office before, but knew a little about his life. Rick's Secret Service and Charles's Office of Combat Readiness are both under the Department of Homeland Security, and judging from the fact that Secretary Kelly sent Charles and the SRT Special Response Team over, they will be the ones who will lead the security work in the institute next.
"Hello Rick, before I came over, Kelly specifically told me to bring you his greetings," Charles shook hands with Kelly's henchman warmly, "We'll meet in private later, I hope to know more about here." ”
"No problem," Rick nodded.
"Is there something wrong?" After Rick sat down, he suddenly began to mumble in his heart, he and the people from the Cyber War Department were sent to the Houston Research Institute by Kelly a few months ago, and now the old leader sent another group of people over, and he didn't know what his intentions were. And when Charles arrived, he hadn't heard any wind before, so he subconsciously felt that something was not right.
Next, everyone began to discuss the upcoming academic exchange conference, and Charles reminded Dr. Mario and others of the direction of strengthening the defense during the conference.
"You're saying there might be super hackers among the attendees?" Mario asked.
"Of course, in my opinion, this possibility is almost 100 percent," Charles's tone made it seem that he must have some information in his hands, but for some reason he could not disclose it to others.
"I trust your judgment, but the Houston Institute also has hacker experts and members of the Cyber Warfare Department, and this part should not be easily breached," Mario nodded, looking at Martin beside him.
Martin's expression was very calm, but there were waves in his heart, Charles's words just now made the shadow of the mysterious person suddenly appear in her mind, and a guess unconsciously popped up, "That mysterious guy, will he appear at the academic exchange meeting this time?" ”
"I'm very relieved of your strength, and this time there is Maggie who can help you strengthen your cybersecurity," Charles's gaze turned back to Maggie, "In addition to being a warrior, Maggie is also a decoding expert in the computer field. ”
Hearing Charles's words, Martin suddenly raised his head and looked at Maggie opposite. Maggie was also looking at her at the moment, and the eyes of the two women collided together, which was full of appreciation and competition.
When Jason returned to his quarters, he saw Thompson and Hill talking to something, and walked up to say hello to the cowboy.
"Hi Major," Thompson waved happily to Jason when he saw him return.
"I'll give you what you want," Jason smiled, thinking that Thompson had come over and waited to get his ring.
"Honey, you're back," Hill stepped forward and offered Jason a fragrant kiss.
"Major, I want Hill to do me a favor," Thompson said, and then he explained why he had come to Hill.
Jason and Hill listened to Thompson's request and were both happy to be adults, so they agreed without hesitation.
The wedding of the two is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, and they borrow some inconsequential venues from the institute, and the catering department in the base will also prepare various meals and drinks for the wedding. Jason and Hill's friends will attend the post-disaster wedding to share the hope and joy it brings.
In the evening, Hill returned to the institute's studio, turned on his computer and searched for some videos.
Dr. Martin passed behind her with a cup of coffee and couldn't help but smile enviously when he saw the girl watching a video of the wedding scene.
"The wedding venue is the stage for the whole wedding, and we need flowers, light yarn, fabrics, lights, candlesticks, romantic bubbles and balloons and other ...... when we set it up," the video teaching voice came from the headphones, and Hill watched carefully, while pulling out a tissue and learning to fold the bouquet inside.
"Did you come to the office to learn this?" Martin said with a smile, only ridicule in his tone, not a hint of reproach.
Hill and Kim have been cared for by Martin since they joined Dr. Mario's research team, and Hill is full of gratitude to her for this Ph.D. sister, who is also a mentor and friend.
Hearing Dr. Martin's words, Hill lowered his head and smiled embarrassedly, "I'm going to marry Jason the day after tomorrow, and before I got married, I suddenly found that I still had a lot to learn. ”
"But," said Ciel, after a pause, then looking up again, "I didn't know until I got to know more about it that I realized how easy it was to set up my own wedding." ”
A staff member came to Hill's workshop, there weren't many people working overtime that night, and he was rarely able to find a low-level researcher to do the manual work, "Hey Hill, here's some new materials that you need to help file." ”
"Okay," Ciel nodded, ready to reach for the stack of materials in his hand.
"Hey, Francis, do me a favor, if you're not in a hurry, put this in the safe and wait a few days to deal with it," Martin interrupted the staff member's request, "Hill needs to be busy with something important to her these days. ”
"Okay, Doctor," Francis took back the materials he had handed over, and he suddenly remembered that Hill's wedding was the day after tomorrow, and he smiled and left her workstation.
"Thank you, Doctor," Hill thanked Martin gratefully, and continued to watch the video intently.
"Is Jason busy these days?" Martin asked.
"Well, if it weren't for the preparation and implementation of the next academic exchange meeting, we would have more time to prepare for our wedding," Hill nodded, "Jason went out again today, and went to a far away place. ”
"How do you know?" Martin asked.
"I heard from Kim that she saw Tom go to the car wash," Hill said, spreading his hands, with a somewhat helpless look.
"Is there any work they need to do outside?" Martin didn't know much about Jason's work, except that the mission of these military personnel was to keep the Houston Institute safe.
"I don't know, maybe it's patrol," Hill thought for a moment, "he makes me scared every time he goes out on a mission, and I remember the time I proposed, and I was going to break my heart when I saw him lying on the ground covered in blood, but luckily those were fake, and he just used this little trick to propose to me." ”
"Hehe, I always thought that soldiers were straight, but I didn't expect Jason to use such a trick to capture your heart," Martin laughed as he covered his mouth.
"Dr. Martin, Rick is also very good, you have to come on," Hill was a little embarrassed by Martin's words, so he teased her as well.
As soon as she said this, Martin's face instantly turned red.
