Ten minutes later, at the CIA's Langley headquarters in Virginia, looking at the non-stop phone ring on his desk, Mr. Harold Ettinger, the special adviser, had a gloomy look on his face, his brow furrowed, and he slowly reached out and picked up the phone.

Mr. Harold Edingale has been the director of the CIA for 25 years.

Originally, it was time for him to retire, and even a successor had been found, but the alien attack was forced to let the veteran who was responsible for the international security affairs of the United States of America come out again and was hired back to preside over the work as a special consultant.

This is a black operation that the CIA will only take out when it is not visible, such as now, they are carrying out the operation of hunting Cybertron mechanical lifeforms without the knowledge of the federal high-level including the US government and the US Congress.

Because Harold Ettinger's status is so high, no one will ask about the work he presides over.

"The Emergency Police Helpline submitted a recording of the call, and we think it's necessary for you to listen to-"

On the phone, his assistant's voice came, and then the assistant played a recording of the phone call, which was the previous telephone exchange between Lucas and the 911 operator, listening to the recording, Harold Ettinger's brow became more and more frowned.

"What about the authenticity of this phone recording?"

"According to the comparison results in the road surveillance footage, we think that the probability of Optimus Prime is as high as 93%, and in addition, according to the description of Agent Savoy of the Gravewind Squad, the off-road search and rescue vehicle should be the ambulance that escaped, do you send investigators?"

"No, there's no need to send investigators, just let Savoy go with the Gravewind team, and if necessary, you can apply for military support."

After a moment's silence, Harold made the decision to let the assistant coordinate the arrangements.

The heavy flat-top truck and the search and rescue vehicle did sound a lot like the Optimus Prime and the escaped ambulance they chased in New Mexico, and because of the failed hunt for the ambulance, the Tombwind team was almost wiped out by the mysterious robot, and has not recovered yet.

According to Agent Savoy's description, the mysterious robot does not seem to be a shape-shifting Cybertron, but a human wearing special metal armor, which also arouses Harold's keen interest and eagerness to find out the truth.

After Harold gave the order, in the hospital, the members of the Gravewind team who could still be dispatched quickly gathered and came to the airport, and their actions were very privileged, and they could ask the U.S. military for help, and a C-5 transport plane immediately sent them south.

This time, the Gravewind squad brought a lot of equipment, ranging from grenade launchers to military armored vehicles and helicopter gunships.

Not only did the local police give the green light all the way, but even sent more than a dozen police cars to provide support, and once the whereabouts of Optimus Prime and the ambulance were confirmed, hundreds of elite special forces from the U.S. Army would join the pursuit, and even call tanks if needed.

On the other hand, Lin Cheng didn't know anything about it, and in the barn of Cade's house, the ambulance finally ended the treatment of Optimus Prime

"Thank you for your help, ambulance, I feel much better."

At this time, Optimus Prime has long since lost its previous embarrassment, the bullet holes left on his body have been repaired, and the original rusty iron armor has also regained its bright color, as if it has undergone sheet metal correction and sandblasting and rust removal, and it has been re-painted with new paint.

"It's my duty, Optimus Prime - if I want to thank you, thank you to our human friend."

The ambulance shook its head and took back the healing device that could emit rays, and wanted to introduce Lin Cheng to Optimus Prime, introducing the great benefactor who saved himself and also indirectly saved Optimus Prime, but only saw Lin Cheng lying on Cade's recliner with a big face.

In particular, he was holding a can of cold beer from the refrigerator in his hand, and he looked very comfortable.

Optimus Prime did not feel any disgust at Lin Cheng's casual posture, but knelt down on one knee, slowly leaned down, and the distance between him and Lin Cheng was further narrowed, and the mechanical eyes that exuded a faint blue cold light looked at Lin Cheng lying on the sofa chair, and stretched out a huge hand.

"Thank you, it's an honor to meet you, Optimus Prime, I've been looking forward to meeting you for a long time."

Seeing Optimus Prime leaning over, Lin Cheng hurriedly threw down the beer can in his hand, stood up from the sofa chair, shook off the cold water droplets on his hand, wiped his wet hands on his clothes, and stretched out his hand towards Optimus Prime and held one of Optimus Prime's fingers.

"I received the news that the Autobots were constantly being hunted by humans, and the humans set traps to attack me, and I was forced to flee, and you, you saved the ambulance, and you saved me, and you are our benefactor - but, I am curious, why would you help us fugitives?"

Optimus Prime looked at the little guy who held one of his fingers, although his voice was cold, but his tone revealed gratitude, and it was also incomprehensible, because Optimus Prime really couldn't understand what purpose Lin Cheng chose to help them.

"You're wrong, Optimus Prime, it's just some ill-intentioned guys in the U.S. government who hunt you and attack you, humans have a good impression of you Autobots, but they are blinded, I can't get used to what they do, they will ruin everything."

"And the reason why I chose to help you is because you have helped humanity more than once."

"We cannot, and should not, let the heroes shed blood, sweat, and tears."

After a pause, Lin Cheng continued to speak.

Lin Cheng's words made Optimus Prime's metallic eyes that radiated blue light involuntarily enlarged, because Optimus Prime never thought that the human in front of him would actually say such words, which made Optimus Prime suddenly feel a little moved in his heart.

After humans began to hunt the Autobots, and their comrades lost contact one by one, and even attacked themselves, Optimus Prime originally thought that humans had long lost their kindness and sanity, and the disheartened Optimus Prime sent a message asking all Autobots to hide and never reappear.

But what Optimus Prime didn't expect was that there were still humans who hadn't forgotten their existence, and were helping them and saving them as always, which made Optimus Prime inevitably have an inexplicable emotion in his heart, making him appreciate the humans in front of him very much.

"It seems that there is still value for humanity to be saved."

"Strictly speaking, not all human beings have good morals, and there will be some wicked people in any life group, like the fallen King Kong among you, the Decepticons led by Megatron, but we always have to have hope, don't we?"

Hearing Optimus Prime's words, a smile appeared on Lin Cheng's face and he slowly spoke.
