"Tick, tick, tick......"

A quick, slight alarm sound reached Harold's ears through the headphones.

Agent Harold, who was already a little drowsy, looked at the computer screen with a little confusion.

The computer prompts that there is a listening content to distinguish the most sensitive keywords.

Despite his reputation as an agent, Harold's job was really just sitting in front of his computer every day, listening to boring surveillance phone calls.

These monitoring contents are automatically screened by the computer.

Nowadays, the FBI's surveillance methods have become more and more advanced, and most of the work is done by computers, according to the written program, automatically monitor all kinds of communications of various targets, retrieve the monitoring content, and then automatically distinguish the monitoring targets hierarchically, focus on strengthening the further monitoring of key targets, and then notify the staff responsible for the final screening of the important content through the setting of sensitive words.

This is only the FBI in the 90s, and when the Internet age comes, Harold's current work will be completely taken over by computers, and there will be only a few people left in the entire monitoring department, most of whom are actually just engineers who maintain the complete and stable operation of the system.

However, today's computer intelligence has not yet reached the point where it will be decades later, so the content filtered by the computer still has a great chance of error, and it still needs a person to do the final step of screening.

Harold has been doing this since he joined the FBI, and at first he thought his job was important, but after nearly a decade of boring work, he had completely lost his passion.

Most of the monitoring content filtered out by the computer didn't make any sense, just a few unimportant keywords that triggered the alarm system.

In at least the ten years that Harold has been on the job, he has not found a single case of valuable intelligence.

He had doubts about the usefulness of this kind of surveillance, and after years of working alone in such a small room, he always wondered if the higher authorities had forgotten that there was such a fully computerized surveillance department, and whether they had forgotten that there was such a person as Harold in the FBI.

Fortunately, the monthly salary was still paid, and the monthly taxes had to be paid correctly, which finally made Harold realize that he was still a member of the FBI, and not a waste that had been thrown into the utility room for years.

Although he didn't think there would be any discoveries this time, Harold still called up the monitoring content of the alarm according to the rules.

This is a transatlantic phone call.

The call was made to the country across the ocean.

The two sides of the call were labeled Xie Minggao and Xie Mingyuan.

These are obviously two brothers, and I don't know which point of the two brothers' ocean call touched the G-spot of the surveillance computer.

Harold put on his headphones, spread out his notebook, took out his pen, prepared his notes, and began to listen intently.

On the phone, the two brothers were arguing, seemingly arguing about dealing with a man named Zhou Yang, and one of them thought that the other should commit suicide.

None of this has anything to do with Millikan.

It's another boring wasteland.

Harold thought so, and suddenly in the midst of an argumentative conversation, he heard a person's name.

They were talking in Chinese, so quickly and so quickly that Harold wondered if the name really appeared, and he immediately put the call on hold and went back a few minutes to listen intently.

Appeared!

Sure enough, that name was mentioned!

"Miss Millettle!"

Harold immediately pulled out a small notebook he had with him, which contained some keywords and key names that were deemed inconvenient to put on the computer.

He flipped to the sequence of M heads in alphabetical order, and the first one was Millettle, no name, only such a surname, and her full name was Miss Millettle!

In other words, if the name of Timilytt alone is meaningless to the surveillance computer and Harold, the name only becomes meaningful if it is crowned with the honorific title of Miss!

On the book, after the name Miss Millettle, the mark is "Special alert, need to be reported to the sixth audit team of the audit committee immediately!" ”

The Intelligence Review Committee is an internal organization of the FBI that screens all kinds of intelligence and determines the types and levels of action that need to be taken based on the intelligence.

The audit committee is directly responsible to the director, and there are six audit teams that review intelligence information in different directions, five of which are the most familiar to Harold, and the sixth group, although he has such a group, has never known what this group is responsible for.

He immediately reported the monitoring findings to the sixth audit team in accordance with the prescribed process, and the level will be marked.

As soon as his report went up, he received an immediate response.

This shows that the keyword Miss Millettle has also triggered a key keyword on the side of the sixth audit team.

However, Harold did not know what his debriefing would trigger, he just completed the work according to the prescribed procedure, and did not care about the follow-up, and he did not have the authority to care about what happened next.

However, about 30 minutes later, he received a direct order from the director, asking him to further strengthen the monitoring of the Xie brothers, to be precise, the Xie brothers, mainly Xie Minggao in Millican, into round-the-clock uninterrupted surveillance. Moreover, the order clearly requires that any suspicious points and the content of triggering keywords must be reported directly to the director's office, and no longer to the audit committee.

This is when big things are going to happen.

Harold couldn't help but get excited.

Just because of the name Miss Millettle, things have been elevated to such heights, who could this Miss Millettle be? Terrorist? The president's mistress?

Harold couldn't help but be curious, and brought up the sentence that referred to Miss Millettle again, and listened carefully over and over again.

"He's, that's what I said, the one who touched Miss Millettle's hair!"

The man in this should refer to the man named Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang is the one who touched Miss Millettle's hair.

This is what scared that Xie Minggao.

So the key word is not Zhou Yang, but Miss Millettle.

The person who spoke didn't know Zhou Yang's situation, but he knew Miss Millettle very well, so he used Miss Millettle to make a comparative analogy, and Zhou Yang dared to touch Miss Millettle's hair to illustrate how terrible this person was.

Harold, however, could not discern anything here that had anything to do with Millican.

Maybe it's a code word, using this sentence to refer to something else.

Harold did not know that while he was still speculating about Miss Millettle's origins, the information he had provided was being transmitted to Miss Millettle herself at an unimaginable speed.

After Miss Millettle received the information, she was a little puzzled, but since the other party mentioned Zhou Yang and had the intention of dealing with Zhou Yang, then she must be concerned. Although she didn't think that there was anyone or anything in this world that could threaten Zhou Yang, Milett would be very happy if she could solve some minor troubles for Zhou Yang.

She knew that Zhou Yang was in Dongyang, and she also knew that Elantra was in Qingwei, but since they didn't ask her for anything, she could only pretend that she didn't know, silently observing and waiting.

However, she was afraid that if she remained silent for so long, Zhou Yang and Elantra would forget about herself, and her entire life now was actually given by these two people, if they forgot it, she wouldn't be right to know what meaning her life still had to be remembered.

Miss Millettle immediately ordered a comprehensive collection of relevant information, and it was important to find out what the guy named Xie Minggao wanted to do to Zhou Yang.

As soon as she gave her order, all relevant departments immediately began to operate, and even the White House personally cared about it, and the old men on Capitol Hill also passed a temporary authorization in the shortest possible time with an unprecedented cooperative attitude, so as to facilitate the FBI's actions and ensure that the results of the investigation were fed back to Miss Millett as soon as possible, and the FBI did not even ask for this authorization itself, because the FBI under this authorization will become very difficult to control. So the FBI knew very well that the old men on Capitol Hill would never give them such a mandate.

But now, this impossible authorization has been voluntarily issued, although it is only temporary, but it is enough to explain some problems.

Millettle quickly got what she wanted, and then let her anger go. Someone actually wanted to kidnap Zhou Yang's sister! It's a real no-brainer!

She immediately made several phone calls to express her anger.

So the whole of Millican began to tremble under Miss Millettle's anger.

And this tremor soon converged into a tremendous pressure that pointed clearly and unambiguously.

A Chinese citizen who has obtained permanent residency, and a wealthy second generation with an extremely prominent family.

At this moment, Xie Minggao had just calmed down from his anxiety and panic.

He thought carefully about his current situation, and finally decided to leave Millican as soon as possible and return home.

Millitel is a superstar in Millican, if she gets Zhou Yang's instructions and takes action, then Xie Minggao, who has no roots and no foundation in Millican, can only be slaughtered.

And if you return to China, although you have to face Zhou Yang's threat, but after all, the country is the home of the Xie family, not only is it deep-rooted, but also through marriage and other means, it has established an intertwined relationship network, Zhou Yang wants to deal with the Xie family, he has to face the counterattack of the entire elite class, that is tantamount to doing against the whole country!

No one can fight one nation, can they?

Once he made up his mind, he immediately packed up his things, called his wife and children, and went straight to the airport, preparing to use his VIP privileges to take the nearest flight back to China.

Nothing, nothing.

If this battle can be won, then as long as he returns to Millican, these things will still be his, but if this struggle is lost, then these things outside the body will have no meaning.

However, Xie Minggao still couldn't get on the plane.

At the airport, they were kidnapped.

After seeing the department that had kidnapped them, Xie Minggao's fear reached the extreme, and he clearly realized that his situation might be even more terrible than he imagined.

It's not the FBI, it's not the CIA, it's the IRS!

The IRS, the full name of the Federal Inland Revenue Service of Millican, is the most feared government department in all of Millican.

There is an American proverb: "In this world, only death and paying taxes are eternal." ”

The IRS agent was polite, telling him that he had been arrested for concealing income and evading taxes, that all of his assets in Millican had been frozen, and that his wife and children were not to be arrested together, but that they were restricted from leaving the country until the case was concluded.

In this way, Xie Minggao didn't even have a chance to distinguish it, so he was escorted away.

He didn't even have a chance to move around and dredge up and make control trades.

After only five days in custody, he was brought to court and sentenced to 25,000 years in prison!

Just one day before he was escorted to prison to serve his sentence, Xie Minggao finally had the opportunity to meet his wife and children, and got the news from China. And this news shocked him at the same time, and finally completely despaired.

Xie Mingcun, the second eldest member of the Xie family, fell because he was reported by his real name, and there were so many crimes that he was listed half a page in the announcement of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and he was transferred to the judicial organs for further processing within a few days.

And Xie Mingzhi, the boss of the Xie family, almost on the front and back feet, unfortunately "died"!

Xie Ming's case broke out suddenly, and it ended just as suddenly.

The investigative agency, which was originally going to continue to dig deeper, received an order from above to stop continuing the investigation after Xie Mingzhi died of illness.

The matter only stopped at the two brothers, Xie Mingzhi and Xie Mingcun.

Xie Mingzhi used his life to win a precious respite for the Xie family at the most critical moment!

Although the two brothers have the same disease, there is still the fourth child outside, and the real mastermind of the Xie family is Xie Mingyuan, who is still white.

With Xie Mingyuan running around and coordinating, Xie Mingzhi and Xie Mingyuan believe that they will not stay in prison for a long time, and for characters like them, even if they lose all their power, they can still live better than most people when they get out of prison, just the relationship between the Xie family is neutral enough, not to mention that when they were in power, they weaved a dense network of relationships, and these relationships will play an unexpected role at a critical moment.

But things didn't develop as they imagined, and the Xie family's affairs could be called a house leak that happened to rain overnight.

Not long after Xie Mingzhi and Xie Mingcun were imprisoned, the third young man of the Xie family, known as the first son of the capital, had a car accident in Xizhimen due to drunk driving.

It would have been a simple car accident.

But then the development turned in a strange direction.

After the car accident, someone immediately mobilized a brigade of armed police to block the scene and close the news.

The two brothers of the Xie family have been imprisoned, but Xie Mingyuan, who is only white, can still easily mobilize such a great force, and it is still at the feet of the Son of Heaven, this matter is simply terrifying, the high-level is angry, and the big leader only approved one sentence, "I don't know that the capital is the world of the Xie family today!" ”
