evening

On a hillside somewhere in Washington, two figures sat and stood there watching the setting sun in the distance.

"Joseph, have you figured it out?" The standing figure took the last puff of his cigarette and threw it away.

"No, you don't have to think about it. Connor. The man sitting on the grass smiled, stood up, and opened his arms to the setting sun. Now, the world is gradually sliding into darkness like this sunset. Once we didn't see the possibility of dawn at all, but now we have a powerful fleet behind us. Dawn is already beckoning to us! ”

"Dawn?" Connor reached out and touched his handbag, only to realize that the cigarette was the last. He smiled helplessly and sighed, "Indeed. The fact that we are here again is a sign of hope. So, it's time to do it! ”

"Well, it's going to happen!" Joseph nodded heavily, his face full of determination.

"For the sake of the hometown!"

"For the sake of the hometown!"

It's night.

Joseph sat quietly in the car and let the driver deliver him to his destination.

After walking through the streets and alleys with the car, after going through a series of tightly guarded checkpoints, I finally came to the door of a villa that did not look very luxurious from the outside.

"Don't wait for me. You go back first. Before getting out of the car, Joseph casually confessed.

"Yes, sir. Have a nice night. The driver nodded and sent his sincere wishes.

"Pleasant evening? Inherit your good words. A meaningful smile appeared on Joseph's lips and he stepped out of the car. Accompanied by the attendants who came up to greet him, he walked towards the villa at the back of the park.

The park is not big.

With Joseph's brisk walk, it didn't take him a few minutes to walk through the garden and come to the door of the villa.

Here, Joseph was surprised to find that his master, who was supposed to be in the living room, had walked to the door, waiting for his arrival.

"Sir. Good evening! I'm tired of you coming out to greet you. Joseph smiled sincerely and expressed his gratitude to his master.

"Huh. Come! I've been waiting for you for a long time. Serena and the children made dinner. Let's go in first! You can't keep the kids waiting. The host laughed, and without saying anything, he took Joseph's arm and walked straight into the villa.

George Duffy. That is, the owner of this villa.

Although this host family looks kind and amiable, a kind old man next door, in fact, his real identity is the head of state of the most powerful country on the planet, the president of the United States. Tonight, Joseph was invited to dinner with the president.

At the table full of sumptuous dishes, Joseph and George maintained a sufficient tacit understanding, and calmly mentioned some sensitive topics, casually said some topics of interest to the children, and made the children with anticipation have a lot of fun and jokes, and then the two left the dining room and came to George's study.

"Oh, no. Give me a glass of water! Mr. When Joseph saw George walk to the table full of coffee utensils, he quickly thanked him and politely declined George's gesture of fiddling with coffee.

"Huh? Is it really not necessary? That's a shame. These are the coffee beans that the Serenatos brought back from Brazil. Tastes great. George was surprised for a moment, then said regretfully.

"Thank you. I don't have to stay awake at night yet. After all, those things have been going crazy for me lately. Joseph sat on the couch, relaxed slightly, and sighed.

With the aroma of coffee powder being washed away by hot water, George smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work." Joseph, you are a great contributor to our Federation. I have always believed in this. Without you, I'm afraid we might have overlooked some of the key points. As a result, we have lost control of the international situation, which is undoubtedly a fatal existence for us, who have always controlled the hegemony. ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do." Joseph replied, but looked helplessly at George, the cup of coffee that the president brought to him. "Sir, this..."

"Taste it! If you miss this opportunity, you won't be able to taste this flavor. Recently, things haven't been going very well on the Brazilian side. George sat behind the sofa opposite Joseph with his coffee, tasted it carefully, and sighed: "Well~ that's the taste." It's really invigorating. ”

Joseph looked at George, and reluctantly took the cup of coffee he didn't want to try and took a sip.

Moment

The rich bitterness filled Joseph's mouth at a whirlwind speed, and quickly spread throughout his body through the taste. Under this extreme taste that was very bitter, but faintly but not so bitter, Joseph's mental state that had been somewhat tired recently also dissipated, and his spirit was lifted.

Looking at the strange look on Joseph's face, George laughed. "Look! I'll just say it. This coffee tastes great. ”

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the ease of tiredness dissipating. "Yes, sir. Indeed, this is an opportunity not to be missed. ”

"That's right." George smiled and nodded, and after putting down the cup, he said with a straight face, "Joseph." Has your intelligence team received any information? About the situation on the Alaska side. ”

Joseph was not surprised by George's sudden change. On the contrary, he also felt a faint sense of relief. Because, he was not afraid that George would ask about these things, but he was afraid that George would start a common conversation with him.

After putting the cup back on the table, Joseph said, "According to the intelligence officers we deployed in Alaska before, there was a riot in Yukon caused by the refugee front. In it, the refugee front took the extreme act of releasing the BETA in order to avoid the bombing of our country in conjunction with the Soviet Union. Thus almost triggering a red state. ”

"I've seen this in the report. That's what I want to ask. George nodded, then pulled out a file bag from under the table, opened it, and pulled out several photographs from it, placing them in front of Joseph one by one.

Naturally, Joseph knew everything about the things in the photo.

However, Joseph did not tell George the truth, and he was ready to weave another lie to mislead George.

"Sir. This is an unknown mysterious battleship. For us, whether it is our country, or the Soviet Union, or even any country on the planet, it is an advanced warship that cannot be built, or even developed. As for its identity, our intelligence team has come up with an answer that doesn't count as an answer. That is, it is very likely that this battleship is from another life civilization. ”

"Is it really an alien civilization again?" George wasn't surprised. After he got the first-hand information, he had already guessed. Now, this is just another confirmation of the information to the relevant intelligence services.

"Perhaps." Joseph nodded and said, "In addition, according to the intelligence of an infiltrator, during the battlefield, the aircraft that took off from the mysterious warship had fought with the tactical aircraft developed by the Soviet Union. ”

George was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, "Is there such a thing?" The result? ”

"The tactical aircraft of the Soviet Union were easily defeated." As he spoke, Joseph took out several photographs from his bosom and placed them in front of George. "This is the picture taken by the sleeper at an adventure. Although the clarity is not high, it can be seen from its aerodynamic shape that this mysterious aircraft may have some connection with us humans. ”

"Let's find out!" George thought for a while, then decisively ordered.

"I've assigned someone to investigate. According to intelligence, the mysterious warship is now moving near the Bering Strait, seemingly heading in the direction of Siberia. If my guess is correct, it's likely that the enemy of this mysterious battleship will be BETA. ”

"Hmm~" Under Joseph's inducement, George thought deeply.

Half an hour passed.

George gradually came back to his senses from his contemplation. And the first thing he said after coming back to his senses was to get straight to the point.

"Joseph. Do you think we humans will be able to enlist the help of that mysterious warship? ”

Joseph's eyes flickered a few times.

"Sir. This possibility cannot be ruled out. ”

George nodded.

"So, can your reporting team get as much access to the mysterious ship as possible?"

Joseph nodded and replied:

"Maybe. In the Yukon, one of the guards of the Eastern Ying Empire once came into contact with the guards of the mysterious warship. ”

"Smack!"

George slapped his palms and said in high spirits:

"Quick! Go and leave that guard behind and help us get access to that mysterious ship. Perhaps, we will get help from an alien civilization! When the time comes, the hegemony of our Federation on the planet will be unquestionable. ”

There was a hint of complexity in Joseph's eyes. At this moment, a faint sigh sounded in his heart.

"Yes. Mr. As you wish. ”

"Smack."

Joseph suddenly raised his right hand and swept the cup to the ground.

With a crisp sound, the door of the study was suddenly kicked open with a strong force.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, several tall figures in silver-white armor rushed into the study.

"Don't move!"

Joseph's face did not change, he calmly looked at George, who was stunned, raised his right hand and waved, and the tall figures scattered, occupying the three key positions behind George's left and right one by one.

"Joseph! What do you want? Now, George can see something. He never expected that Joseph, who was the head of the federal vital intelligence department, would be emboldened enough to send someone to infiltrate here and aim his gun at him, the president.

Faced with George's scolding, Joseph shook his head slightly. "Sir. I'm sorry! Decades ago, I made a mistake. Put the information on your desk that shouldn't have appeared, and let those two G-shells explode on other countries' territory. He also instructed his subordinates to falsify information for the supremacy of the Federation and killed the heroes of the United Nations forces. ”

Speaking of this, Joseph smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Sir. First of all, thank you for hosting me at this villa tonight. Otherwise, we wouldn't have found an opportunity to invade here. ”

Joseph paused, looked at George with burning eyes, and said slowly:

"Sir. Do you know? In the near future, you will sign a bill to elect tens of thousands of people in the Commonwealth and send them into the universe as the last seeds of humanity. And I'm one of them. Now, after that period of cosmic wandering, I have finally returned from time and space! Return to the plane where you once made a mistake and get a chance to correct the warp! ”

George looked at Joseph, who was becoming more and more excited, moved the corners of his mouth, and said in disbelief: "Joseph, you are crazy!" ”

Joseph smiled contemptuously.

"Huh. I'm not crazy! Sir, when General He led the fleet to this world, there was only one result for you and the Congress. ”

"Surrender, or die!!"
