Before Sullivan could react to what had happened, Xu Rang, who had been in the company for less than a minute, strode away.

The interpreters and assistants who were present did not understand what was going on at all, and the Chinese man walked in and said something completely ignorant of what he was saying and left, which would have made the media cry out for big news if it was a public contact occasion.

One is the ambassador to the United Nations and the other is the secretary of state, and the meeting between the two should never be so hasty and simplistic.

They wanted an answer from Sullivan, but the latter was distracted and motionless on the couch.

It took a few minutes for Sullivan to start moving, and then more unexpectedly:

He called the presidential secret service directly, controlled all those who were present today who heard that sentence, and personally emphasized to the head of the special service the seriousness of their mission, not allowing anyone to pass on any information.

Then he boarded the helicopter and arrived here as fast as he could.

The faces of the others immediately changed, which meant that the Chinese people discovered the problem almost at the same time, but they just held back like them.

So even if it doesn't launch in the probe window, it won't take much time to reach Mars' orbit.

"It's possible that they have also discovered extraterrestrial signals, and the time is not much like ours, and then looking at our deep space plan, it is easy to guess our ...... Kuiper Belt Shelter Program. ”

Dawei Usno repeated Xu Rang's words, and then explained:

"The choice of the Chinese people is different from ours, it may be to flee to other galaxies, but it is more likely to fight back."

"Can it only be December?"

Any relevant information is never communicated in electronic communication equipment, and is transmitted by the commissioner in paper documents and collected after reading, which is the confidentiality of confidential.

Claire doesn't say the word "escape", although it is, but internally it's called Vault.

Perhaps it was already a little numb, but after John knew that the Chinese people had also discovered alien civilizations, in addition to the expectation of hindsight, he was also a little relaxed.

Claire gave Robert a look, and the latter immediately took out his phone to operate.

Changsi is targeting the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, so there is no need for a conventional Mars rover to slow down before approaching Mars.

Xu Rang followed the anti-director Xi to end the message, which naturally explained the connection between the two things, but John didn't think of the intention of doing so.

"The answer they have already told us: if you can't escape the solar system, you will die."

There are no Mars probes, but there are quite a few probes on the road, 'Lihuo', 'Typhoon', 'Tianwen' These are all Robert's memos, and after a while, he let out an "oh".

The crowd that had just experienced a shock was overwhelmed by the tide of emotions again, but this time they were shocked and frightened.

So this is also the reason why the Chinese are also engaged in deep space programs? Even at the expense of an expensive nuclear-powered space shuttle for a dangerous mission.

"Bang!"

"It's a counterattack, but like the Vault program, there needs to be a space base outside the asteroid belt, even in the Kuiper belt, and of course, most importantly, weapons.

And it's exactly within December, which means that if 'Changsi' is lucky enough, there is also a chance to find an extraterrestrial signal.

This conclusion relieved everyone, whether it was the truth or not, it was much better than having a super traitor from within.

His mood was a little better, and his tone of voice was a little unobtrusively calm:

"Why did the Chinese people do this suddenly, and why did they scare us once? And to tell us the news at this time? ”

Robert immediately realized something, pulled out his cell phone and called NACA's astronauts, asking them to calculate the closest distance the Long Thoughts rover would have as it passed Mars.

After all, even if it is the first superpower, such pressure is inevitably too heavy.

One more person in the know also means less pressure to make decisions, and the power of a super-industrial power cannot be ignored.

But if it makes sense because of extraterrestrial civilizations, the price of a nuclear-powered space shuttle seems acceptable in the face of this great crisis.

"Although they don't have a probe on Mars yet, it is true that there was once a probe that passed near Mars.

The M incident and Office 13 are both Aramco's top secrets, and there are no more than 100 people in the know, except for the office researchers, and he has an impression of each of them.

McMaster looked incredulous, it was an alien civilization.

John slapped the table lightly, and said with some annoyance:

Perhaps in the past, they developed laser weapons only to grab benefits, and there was room for negotiation; Then now it is inevitable to vigorously develop, laser is the strongest space weapon that human beings can master at this stage, and it is impossible to stop research.

And the two astronaut directors thought more carefully, as long as they step towards the solar system, several giant planets such as Jupiter and Saturn must be important strategic support points, and if Ami has the same ability, he will choose to do so.

There are only a few detectors, and there are still millions of kilometers left from the fire in the calculation, and the most likely is the 'Changsi'.

If someone is ...... enemy, that will be the most serious espionage incident since the end of the Cold War, and the entire top level will be unstable.

It is 'Changsi', the Changsi probe, which is the one that went to Lingshen, which was launched on July 5 last year and is expected to reach its destination in 40 months...... Five to six months. ”

It was a simple math problem, and it wasn't long before the other end of the phone told him that the distance between the two should be about 1.5 million kilometers in recent times.

When the Typhoon was launched, NACA also made an analogy with Endeavour, and found that such an ultra-long-distance voyage would test the airframe too much, and it would definitely be a major setback if it was lost.

After he finished repeating Xu Rang's original words, he was silent, because everyone here understood this sentence:

- The Chinese people know about the alien civilization and the NACA's escape plan!

At the same time, everyone else was aware of this, and they all looked at each other with a little vigilance and suspicion in their eyes.

"Perhaps...... Think about it. ”

Claire patiently explained to John that the M signal was not a broadcast signal without dead ends, but had a vague direction, and could only be detected if it was possible near Mars, so the possibility of Earth detection was naturally ruled out.

Far away, but also close.

"I know what you idiots are thinking, but I'm not going to believe it, Robert, Claire, tell me if it's possible for the Chinese to find an extraterrestrial signal?"

"Fight back?"

"It's very likely, only this time overlapped, and they couldn't have received it when the signal was sent last month."

Especially McMaster, the Chinese don't have a probe on Mars at all, so it's very likely that there was a serious intelligence accident?

The events of last month made them think that we might affect the development of space weapons, so they wanted to use today's exercise to say to us-"

"Escaper, don't block my path to death. ）”
