Washington, USA.
It was close to twelve o'clock in the afternoon, but Charles, who held a key position in a government intelligence agency, did not have any appetite for food, but leaned on a sofa and closed his eyes to recuperate, and suddenly, his eyes opened and he looked at the laptop computer on the table next to him, which kept flashing information.
He quickly got up and clicked on a remote video call request on his computer, and on the other side of the screen was a black star wearing a black six-pointed star hood.
Through the video, Charles could even hear the sound of waves crashing against the hull of the ship, and he immediately deduced that perhaps the black star connected to him was somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico.
"Good afternoon, Mr.
Charles."
Blackstar first smiled at Charles, who looked gloomy, "I hope it didn't disturb your lunchtime." ” Charles just looked at Black Star coldly and said word by word: "That alien is now in your hands" Blackstar readily admitted, "That's right, Shank is indeed with me now. ” "What do you want" As the almost highest-ranking existence of the US intelligence agency, Charles did not drag his feet at all, and simply said: "What is the purpose, let's say it all, I'm too lazy to go around in circles with you." ” "Look, Charles, we've dealt with you a few times, but you'll always look like this."
Black Star shook his head: "I contacted you this time, not to blackmail, now the time is urgent, and I don't have time to sell at the price, so I'll make a long story short." ” "First, these alien viruses today are ineffective for superpowers with superpowers."
"Second, if it is ineffective now, it does not mean that it will be ineffective in the future, alien viruses can evolve themselves, and the antibodies in the superpower's body may not be able to keep up with the speed of their evolution, so in an old saying in our Huaxia country, it is under the nest, there are eggs, and when the virus spreads to the world, no one wants to be alone, whether it is a superpower or an ordinary person."
After Blackstar finished the second point, Charles's face changed significantly.
"Third, there are already a lot of virus infections in that city today, but this does not mean that ordinary people without any symptoms are absolutely healthy, because they are likely to have become carriers of the virus, but they are still in the incubation period and have not yet broken out, and I have consulted the alien, with the current level of medical care and technology on our earth, it is impossible to detect the virus in the incubation period."
"In other words, the 500,000 people who are now fenced off by my subordinates can be regarded as suspected of being infected with the virus."
"What the hell are you trying to express" Charles was expressionless.
"What I'm trying to say is, as the closest superpower to this incident, should you do something" Blackstar said, "You know, the longer it drags on, the harder things will be." ” "So you want us to drop a few nuclear bombs on that city and kill all 500,000 people," Charles scoffed.
Unexpectedly, Black Star asked lightly: "Why not?"
boom Charles slammed the table, cutting a gap in the otherwise hard wooden edge.
He stared at the black star on the screen, and said in a fierce voice: "Black star, this is 500,000 living people, and you can say this kind of contempt for human rights without any burden."
"Hahahaha, I'm laughing to death."
Black Star suddenly laughed and pointed at himself and said: "Charles, who am I, don't you know the leader of the world's largest terrorist organization, you are now talking to me about human rights" "Besides, what kind of urine is your U.S. government, I don't know if everyone is so familiar, why bother to be so pretending, is it interesting to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring?"
"If it weren't for the international public opinion, you would have held back until now and won't act" Charles slowly sat back on the sofa and was silent for a while before he said slowly: "Since you have said so, then I will talk to you openly and honestly." ” "Since World War II, the U.S. government has not used a single nuclear bomb, including other nuclear-armed countries in the world, and nuclear weapons exist more as a deterrent."
"Actually, there is one thing you said wrong, no matter how sanctimonious you think we are, no matter how different we are, this nuclear bomb will never be dropped."
"It's not just because of the 500,000 lives."
"Actually, I understand."
Black Star's expression was calm and he nodded: "Actually, what is more important is the use of nuclear weapons itself. ” "You are afraid, the consequences of doing so will be like opening a Pandora's box, and there will be no turning back" "If only you understood."
Charles said helplessly: "This nuclear bomb is very likely to break the current restrained international situation, once the United States uses nuclear weapons first, no matter what purpose it is used for, or where it is dropped, it does not matter what the important thing is that the delicate balance of deterrence has been broken." ” "Maybe you don't think much of it now, but in another 10, 20 or even 50 years, you will see the profound impact of this event."
"Therefore, not only the United States, but also any nuclear-armed country cannot act rashly in this matter, because no one can afford such responsibility, and it is not even something that can be lightly exposed by resigning."
"Any nuclear bomb could become the trigger for a full-scale nuclear war."
"But what if the virus really spreads, what if by then, the entire human race on Earth will be directly wiped out because of this catastrophe," Black Star asked rhetorically.
Charles's lips moved slightly, and he said slowly: "If it really comes to the point where it has to be done, then the one who ended all this can't have any country or organizational background." ” "I see, in that case, let me do it."
Charles's eyes widened and he said in a loud voice, "What did you say" "Let me launch a nuclear bomb."
Black Star said with a calm expression.
But Charles seemed to have heard one of the funniest jokes in the world, and laughed angrily: "Blackstar, do you know what you're talking about?"
"If you want the U.S. government to obediently hand over the nuclear bomb launch code to a terrorist, are you not awake, or we are not awake" "No, not a delivery."
Black Star's tone was serious: "I grabbed it." ” Charles was stunned.
"I mean, I hope you guys can cooperate with me."
"Let me snatch the nuclear weapons from your hands
