Chapter 90: Memories of the Last Era

“…… Is it saving or wasting? Recently, some military commentators' remarks on the Internet have been supported by a large number of netizens, the main content of these remarks is that the alliance has mishandled the original military bases of various member countries, and has led to a lot of waste, although the spokesman of the logistics department of the allied military said that there is no need to maintain all these bases, but analysts pointed out that many bases have natural geographical advantages and should be used, an example is the location of the former North American Air Defense Command in Cheyenne Hills, Colorado, North America......

- "Alliance Weekend"

***

The Icarus Crisis is a crisis that erupted in the fall of 2152 - the story of the crisis is quite simple: the Confederate Academy of Space Sciences discovers that a metal cylinder large enough to leave the Earth dead is crashing into the Earth.

The fact is that the cylinder was ordered to fly to Earth by the "Ark" - the Ark was discovered in the summer of 2152, and was transported to Greenland by the Confederacy, where it was under close surveillance.

But the "Icarus Crisis" distracted the Alliance, and while the Alliance was dealing with the human crisis, the ACA - of course, it was not called that at the time - took advantage of the situation to attack Greenland, and the League was forced to withdraw to Iceland - what became known as the "Winter Arctic War".

From the point of view of analysts, although the ACA failed to control the "Icarus", it obtained a large amount of information on the "Ark" in the "Winter Arctic War", and did not allow the alliance to form a technological monopoly, and in some respects, even surpassed the alliance's technology.

However, it is undeniable that the allies who have received Icarus have also received the most secure guarantees - all the most core government agencies, military institutions, scientific research facilities, and intelligence materials have all been painstakingly relocated to this huge space station.

A day later, North America, Colorado, Cheyenne Mountain, formerly the North American Air Defense Command, is now the former Confederate Archives Division.

Of course, this "former alliance" refers to the meaning of "before the alliance was formed".

"Release!!"

The guard, who was holding his head with his rifle on his back, hastily checked the documents in his hand, turned around and waved his hand at the sentry box behind him, obviously only retaining face respect for this job.

Although it has entered spring, there are still only dots of green on the surrounding mountains, Ling Yu, who was sitting in the assistant's seat, poked his head out and glanced at the gate in front of him, obviously the barbed wire fence was not even connected.

A hundred years ago, this was the most heavily guarded place on the entire North American continent, from the Cold War period to the middle of the 21st century, he was the clairvoyant and tailwind of the entire North American sky defense, until the second American Civil War, the air defense command belonging to the government army was saturated by the oil army as soon as the war began, and it has not been repaired since, and now it is the "Allied Joint Air Defense Command" set up in Bismarck, Dakotas, and later, it was directly handed over to "Icarus".

Therefore, the Cheyenne Mountain Command served as a war museum and a nuclear battle bunker museum for a long time, and later, after the establishment of the Alliance, it was decided to establish an archival management center here, which can be regarded as a reuse of those nuclear battle bunkers that stretched under Cheyenne Mountain.

Although it is still a nominal military base, it may not be as valuable as a combat depot at Petersen Air Force Base next door.

After all, this is already a legacy of the previous era.

But then again, this is Han Fei's "good way" - using the tens of millions of paper archives stored here before the merger of the main member countries of the alliance, most of which have passed fifty years, Ling Yu has seen several huge incinerators in the base, and the main job of these soldiers wearing alliance training uniforms every day is to burn a lot of expired files, most of the materials in this base have been entered into the main computer of Icarus, but there are many useless, There are also no entries in it.

Ling Yu, who had only known this since coming here, was even a little grateful to Han Fei for his idea - the camouflage scrap plan didn't look like something that would occupy even a byte on Icarus' main computer, and if he came a little later, he might be completely incinerated.

"The dossier of the former government army of the Russian Federation, in the C zone."

The guards on guard looked at Ling Yu with strange eyes, but the Secret Service would always bring some strange people to look through these meaningless files, so they didn't say anything, just directly gave the direction of the files that Ling Yu wanted.

Ling Yu nodded at the Secret Service agent sent by Anderson, and the middle-aged agent in a black suit skillfully climbed into the battery car provided by the base, and carried Ling Yu through the tunnel that was previously used as a nuclear war bunker, Ling Yu couldn't see his expression through his sunglasses, but the man in black seemed to be the standard attire of the Secret Service, could that Director Morgan also be an old movie fan.

"Here we are." Just when Ling Yu was thinking nonsense, the man in black suddenly dropped a line coldly, and then parked the car at the door of a warehouse, Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, nodded and walked out of the car.

"I'll wait for you here."

Ling Yu didn't know what to say after the man in black dropped a sentence, so he could only nod again, turned around and showed his ID to the soldier at the door of the storehouse - in fact, this time, the soldier opened the door of the warehouse for him without even looking at it.

"If I enlisted in the army to guard this kind of place, I'm afraid I'm not in the mood to do my duty."

Ling Yu smiled bitterly and pushed open the door of the warehouse, and in the warehouse about the size of two basketball courts, there were rows of four-meter-high file shelves.

"I knew it was like this...... So they came to help. ”

Ling Yu, who was talking to himself again, sighed, then pushed over the Lu type ladder on the side and began the work of "wandering the sea of books".

***

"How's it going, have you found what you need?"

Obviously, it is no less difficult to find what you want in these thousands of case files, especially since most of the texts are written in Russian, although Ling Yu has an intelligent translation scanning pen with an accuracy of up to 90%, but the remaining 10% of the errors are enough to make him extremely mad when he barely understands Russian.

I don't know how long it took, just when Ling Yu, the TF, had begun to blur his vision and had a splitting headache, and he was about to go to the barracks to take a rest and then go to the barracks to borrow a bed, a not too familiar voice came from behind him, Ling Yu turned his head, and a Chinese man in black with sunglasses was looking at him with a smile.

This man is a little familiar.

"You ......"

Ling Yu closed the file in his hand, inserted the translation pen into the pocket of his jacket, and politely stretched out his right hand.

"Anderson Lee, we met once in South Africa, through the Guò Quantum Communication Device."

"Oooh!" Ling Yu immediately recalled that this person was Han Fei's good friend, and it was said that when he was still serving on the submarine, Han Fei's real yàn-type invention saved his relationship with the lives of everyone on the submarine - naturally, Ling Yu was able to stand here today because of Anderson's privilege.

"How's it going, have you found what you need?" Anderson looked at Ling Yu thoughtfully, and repeated the question.

"No clue," Ling Yu shrugged, "but this is the only clue, I think as the deputy director of the Secret Service, you should understand." ”

"I understand." Anderson took off his sunglasses, revealing the same black pupils as Ling Yu, "This is the information that my people have exchanged their lives for, but it's a pity that I can't fight for him." ”

"The system can also be a help sometimes," Ling Yu was silent for a moment, meeting Anderson's sincere gaze, "For example, if you weren't the deputy director of the Secret Service, I wouldn't have a chance to come here." ”

"Actually, you should have told me your judgment earlier," Anderson subconsciously put the leg of his glasses in his mouth and bit it, he thought for a moment, as if deciding something, "you don't have to rummage through this garbage here." ”

"What do you mean?" Ling Yu raised his head.

"Look at this." Anderson took a file bag from the other black-clothed man next to him, handed it to Ling Yu, and then spoke to the guard behind him, "You all go out, set up the soundproof jammer, and don't let anyone disturb me and Mr. Ling Yu." ”

"It's ...... Archives of the Ministry of Special Equipment of the Russian Federation! Ling Yu watched the man in black walk out of the room before he lowered his head to look at the file in his hand, but he was instantly stunned by the double-headed eagle badge on it.

"I've added a strip to see if it's the camouflage scheme you saw." Anderson smiled shallowly and continued as he bit the leg of his sunglasses.

"This ...... Design Scheme No. 472...... That's it!!! Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at Anderson, who seemed to be prescient, with an unbelievable look, and then lowered his head and saw the name of the designer, "Ivan Andreevich Ivanov...... No rank? ”

Ling Yu flipped through so much information and knew that the Special Equipment Department was a military institution, and if he was a researcher of the Special Equipment Department, he should have a corresponding military rank.

"This person's file, I put it at the end of the Wen Jiàn folder." Anderson gave the answer in due course.

"Ivan Andreevich Ivanov, Chief Academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Russian Federation for 2147-2151, died in his apartment in 2151 as a result of a gas explosion."

Ling Yu frowned as he read it.

"I know what you're thinking, Ivanov is not dead, he is involved in a secret project led by the NSA, the Military Intelligence and the CIA of the Russian Federation."

"It's a pity that the content of the plan has been lost, so I guess it should have been destroyed." Anderson took the temples out of his mouth and sighed, but quickly provided another clue, "However, this plan is also ...... by a series of top scientists such as a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Tsinghua University, biochemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a member of the Royal Society of Neurobiology."

"Life Sciences...... Mechanical engineering...... Biochemistry...... Neurobiology ......"

"You mean their research and the evolution of humanity...... And TF?! ”

Ling Yu suddenly understood Anderson's subtext, and raised his voice with some excitement, "Could it be that the mystery on Helis has something to do with this reality?!" ”

"I don't know that, that's why I came to you." Anderson stared at Ling Yu's pupils and stated slowly, "The real yàn room, somewhere in Buenos Aires. ”

"Buenos Aires...... Is it? ”

Ling Yu's brow furrowed again, Buenos Aires, once the capital of Argentina, the busiest port and one of the most prosperous cities in South America.

Now it's in ruins.

"What, worry is a trap?" Anderson suddenly smiled wryly, breaking the silence in the room, "I understand that you don't tell me your speculation that I have your reasons, the way the alliance is now, we are also powerless, so sometimes, maybe some 'outside the system' solution is needed." ”

"It's not counted...... Ling Yu could only smile politely looking at Anderson, who had obviously misunderstood his intention to be silent, "Anyway, thank you very much for your help, besides, we've already been to the trap once, so it's okay to go again." ”

"Why did you suddenly become so enthusiastic," Anderson quipped Ling Yu's shoulder jokingly, "Don't want ten million?" ”

"If you can give some or give some, I can finally accept the government's employment." Ling Yu shook his head and said half-jokingly, "Besides, you know where my money went. ”

"Okay, I'll leave that to me." Anderson seemed indifferent, probably because he was using the Secret Service's funds rather than his own pockets.

"Speaking of which, how could your dignified deputy director come here," Ling Yu closed his grip and clipped it under his armpit, "Don't say it's for me, I don't believe it." ”

"There is indeed a reason for this...... Anderson did not pause and gave an explanation, "I was also very interested in this mysterious plan after I took office, so I investigated it myself, and as soon as Han Fei said your inference, I immediately thought of it. ”

"More importantly, though, I'm going to Cape Canaveral, the League is holding an emergency meeting on Icarus, and I'm transiting at Peterson Air Force Base, so I'm stopping by to see you."

"Aren't you on vacation in Florida, why are you here for a layover?"

"I was fishing in Alaska for the last few days of my vacation."

"A rich man's happy life," Ling Yu sighed and shook his head with a wry smile.

"By the way, there's one more that you'll be interested in."

Anderson pretended to lean mysteriously towards Ling Yu.

"Reliable information that the ACA has convened a review of Helis Ivanovna Ivanova in relation to the Milan incident."
