Gentlemen, can any of you give me an explanation?"
In the White House of the United States, Mr.
President, who is still in his last year in office, asked with a cold face to the few people in front of him.
Among these people were the White House chief of staff, the president's national adviser, and several heads of key departments. , including Peter, the director of NRO.
The fact that the U.S. government discovered an alien base on Pluto and began preparations to land on Pluto caused an uproar in the world in just one day.
The president, who was on vacation, was very shocked when he learned about it because he had no idea about this.
It was not until I rushed back to the White House that I discovered after confirmation that this incident actually existed, and it was almost the same as what was advertised on the Internet.
Not long ago, NASA discovered extraterrestrial civilization facilities on Pluto through the Mars Climate Explorer that accidentally flew into the orbit of Pluto.
Then NRO took over the matter and teamed up with ODNI to establish Area 51.
A huge "Zeus Plan" was launched.
When he learned of the existence of this plan, the anger in Mr.
President's heart almost reached its peak.
Yes, his term will end next year.
From the current point of view, he is already a "left-behind president".
But as long as he doesn't move out of the White House, he will still be the president of the United States and the supreme head of state of this great country.
"Peter, you are the director of NRO.
I think this explanation is more appropriate for you."
As the chief of staff, he is the confidant of the president.
Although the angry president brought them together and asked such a question at the same time, Come on, everyone present understands that Mr.
President is really targeting ODNI and the NRO agency that is actually responsible.
And Peter is the director of NRO.
He knows the inside story about this matter better than anyone on the scene, so it is most appropriate for him to explain it to the president.
Moreover, in the opinion of the chief of staff, such an incident has reached this point. , as the director of NRO, Peter must bear responsibility.
"Explain why you need to explain."
Peter glanced at the chief of staff coldly, with a sneer on his lips: "NRO, as an intelligence agency, does not need to explain to anyone when it complies with procedures.
What's more, Mr.
Chief of Staff, don't forget that you There was a precedent for the Manhattan Project, and President Truman had no idea of its existence until the research was successful.”
"You" didn't expect that his words would be pushed back by Peter, but Peter was right.
Intelligence agencies are a relatively special department, and their independence and particularity determine their relationship with other governments.
The difference between departments is that in some aspects, even the President of the United States does not have the right to interfere with the normal work of intelligence agencies.
As long as Peter can come up with all the procedures that comply with the procedures, then the existence of this Zeus plan is legal.
Peter was not polite to the chief of staff, but he still had to show some respect to the cold-faced Mr.
President.
Immediately, he reported to the President the ins and outs of the entire Zeus project, as well as the current project progress, and even presented the information he had prepared long ago on the successful test of the controllable thermonuclear fusion experiment.
"Mr.
President, due to the previous Lingjingmen incident, NRO has kept the entire plan strictly confidential.
This is not only considering the importance of the plan, but also taking into account the interests of the United States."
"The interests of the United States."
Mr.
President looked up at Peter and frowned slightly.
"Yes, it is the national interest of the United States," Peter repeated with emphasis.
He preached to Mr.
President, including everyone present, that because controllable thermonuclear fusion technology will bring about earth-shaking changes in the energy structure of human society, if Once this incident spreads, it will inevitably affect the interests of the United States around the world and disrupt the United States' global strategic deployment.
The most direct one is the traditional energy sources such as oil and natural gas controlled by the United States.

Suppose, when the whole world knows that controllable thermonuclear fusion technology is successful, then the originally hot oil fields will become garbage that no one cares about.
The practical value of primary energy sources such as oil, natural gas, and coal will inevitably plummet.
In addition, a large number of related What impact will the industrial chain reaction have on the United States?
It is precisely because of these considerations that the Zeus Project has been strictly kept secret from the beginning and is carried out in a state of extreme secrecy.
All the decisions made by NRO were based on the interests of the United States.
As the director of NRO, Peter did nothing wrong at all.
"But Mr.
Peter, don't forget that your so-called secret is no longer a secret.
Your Zeus plan has put the entire United States into an extremely passive situation."
The national adviser suddenly asked.
As a confidant of the President, he Of course with the chief of staff.
Peter's words were beautiful.
If what happened now had not happened, then everything could be explained.
But the problem is that Peter had just forgotten that the situation is different now.
His so-called secrets have long been known to the whole world.
On the contrary, they control the United States.
The people with the highest authority are the last to hear the news.
This is simply a joke.
"I don't deny this."
Peter replied nonchalantly: "According to NRO's investigation, the original source of the news is likely to be the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
From the analysis of the information currently circulating, the so-called insiders do not know about the Zeus program. , is just an inference based on common sense.”
"Inference, Mr.
Peter, are you planning to shirk the responsibility?"
The national adviser caught Peter's sick words and immediately pursued him.
"There is no need to shirk."
Peter shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly: "Gentlemen, don't forget that we have the most powerful country in the world.
The United States of America will not accept any threats.
This kind of information spread on the Internet is completely based on rumors. , we just need to deny it."
"What you are doing is damaging the image of the United States."
"I was protecting the interests of the United States" Peter and the national adviser immediately had a tit-for-tat confrontation, and soon the chief of staff also joined in.
Then the heads of the CIA and FBI stood with Peter out of their own considerations.
The several parties suddenly started arguing and arguing in the White House office.
Each voice was louder than the other.
Looking at the chaotic scene, Mr.
President felt that his head was getting bigger three times.
"enough" Unable to bear it, Mr.
President slammed the pen in his hand on the table, and the voices in the office suddenly became silent.
However, both parties still glared at each other, with a posture of disapproval of the other.
"Let's think about how to solve the current problem."
Mr.
President, who had a splitting headache, said with a stern face.
At this point, he could only make peace with the matter, even though he had concealed the Zeus plan from the NRO and other intelligence agencies.
While angry, they also disagreed with the views of the chief of staff and national adviser.
As the president of the United States, his duty is to lead this country to continue to become the only superpower in the world, and to do this, national interests are paramount.
Therefore, judging from the current situation, he can only choose this method.

However, when Mr.
President said these words, everyone at the scene seemed to lose their voices for a moment, as if their mouths had been operated on and were sewn shut with threads.
Now, due to a series of reactions in the United States due to the Pluto alien base incident, demonstrations have occurred across the country.
Coupled with the unfair treatment of Professor Kevin Adams, major companies and institutions, including the California Institute of Technology, have been targeted.
The protests in the United States broke out into chaos.
Although the United States is powerful, it is also a democratic and free country.
The Constitution provides Every American has freedom of speech.
Once the government takes measures to suppress people's speech or take other drastic measures, no one dares to take the risk.
What's more, before the meeting, everyone also got a new piece of news, that is, the two parties The presidential candidates are already taking advantage of this incident to make moves.
If the government does not respond well, the entire situation may change unpredictably.
Seeing that the people who were still noisy in front were all mute at this time, Mr.
President felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
During his seven-year term, he discovered today that he, as president, cannot make the decision in anything, let alone solve the current problems.
Just when Mr.
President was troubled by this and cast his tentative gaze on his most trusted chief of staff, there was a sudden knock on the office door.
The Secretary of State came in.
Facing everyone in the office, the Secretary of State nodded slightly to everyone, and then went straight to the President: "Mr.
President, the State Department has just received requests from various countries.
I hope you will take a look."
"Request" Mr.
President looked at the Secretary of State with confusion.
The Secretary of State placed a stack of documents on the table with a solemn expression.
Picking up the document, Mr.
President looked through it.
Who would have thought that the more he looked at it, the darker his face became.
They were not requests, they were almost ultimatums.
The one at the top is from Russia.
Russia requires the United States to fully open up to the Zeus project, and also proposes that Russia can work closely with the United States on controllable thermonuclear fusion devices, including the Pluto landing plan.
If the United States refuses to cooperate, Russia will take necessary measures, including submitting it to the United Nations for discussion, and will also reserve other drastic measures.
In addition to Russia, there are more than a dozen countries such as China, France, Germany, Italy, and India.
The "requests" made by these countries are basically the same as those of Russia, but there are slight differences in the wording.
Even the United States, which has always been praised as the little brother of the United States, The British also put forward similar conditions.
What made the president most angry was that the two dogs raised by Americans, Japan and South Korea, actually made a "plea" to follow the United States to join the Pluto landing plan. aa2705221:
