Chapter 168 Old classmate

In the Lu family, Lu Beiyan is everything, and he can't find anything more precious than the smiles of his father and husband.

Over the years, Lu Beiyan has been worried about his heirs' affairs all day long. He smiled so hard that his family fell into a gloomy atmosphere. However, Chen Fang changed all this. Lu Lingxue seemed to see the scene of his father and his family sitting around. Perhaps it was right to let Chen Fang give up competing for the head of the family and join the Chen family. It was not only for his father and the Lu family, but also for Chen Fang. In the Lu family, Chen Fang could at least get enough attention and not have to fight to the death with his brothers.

Although Lu Lingxue is not naive and knows the cruelty of family competition, as a girl, she is still unwilling to face those inevitable things.

After half an hour of indoctrination, Lu Beiyan ended his long speech with unfulfilled satisfaction, yawned, and explained: "If you win this battle, the one below will be easy to deal with. You are weak, and you have to stay with me for three days. Take the time to rest. I have to sleep. I am old and the years are not forgiving people."

Leaving a irrelevant word, Lu Beiyan left as soon as he said that he really regarded Chen Fang as his son-in-law. You know, this is Lu Lingxue's room. Although his daughter and son-in-law had an engagement, they had not yet passed the door. As the saying goes, if you are not married, you are not a wife, but Lu Beiyan took all this for granted.

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxue blushed. Of course, she could not let Chen Fang stay in her room, even if she was really just sleeping. She was considering how to say it, Chen Fang took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye.

"Next time." Chen Fang, who walked to the door, thought he should say something. As soon as he said that, he immediately regretted it. It would be better not to say it.

In the imperial capital, the expected storm came unexpectedly.

In less than two minutes, the head of state's office received two messages, one from the Black Dragon Legion on the expedition and the other from the Security Bureau.

Lu Beiyan lived up to expectations. Although he had not yet won the three target planets, he reached the plan as scheduled. He originally did not give out good news first with his low profile. Considering the domestic situation and the difficulties of his in-laws, he still passed a good news to the head of state's office.

The information from the National Security Bureau is worrying that the empire is threatened by terrorist organizations, and the other party claims that if the Aojia Empire does not stop its invasion within two weeks, it will be subject to justice.

Apart from the empty threat, the other party did not reveal the chips in his hand or his identity.

Originally, this level of threat was not enough to be delivered to the head of state's office. What's special about it is that this passage suddenly jumped out of the data terminal of the National Security Bureau Conference Hall. The National Security Bureau dispatched experts to try to track the information source through the data platform, but unfortunately there is still no clue yet.

"The other party is definitely not a fanatical anti-war madman. He has careful plans and at least one excellent data engineer." The analysis made by the National Security Bureau is as follows.

Unknowingly, the ghost passed the information to the National Security Bureau's data terminal, and then disappeared mysteriously. This itself is no simpler than attacking the National Security Bureau's database. The other party has a data expert to prove his ability.

"What do you think?" The Head of State had to admire the Secretary of State's foresight, and then made full preparations. When the crisis came, it still made him feel helpless.

Terror activities are a very difficult problem for any country, especially the Aojia Empire, which is not a new thing. However, it is an extraordinary period. If this threat of unknown origin is leaked, it will inevitably set off a wave of anti-war, which will make the already bad situation worse.

"It's very smart. They don't reveal their bargaining chips and identities, but they can make us believe that the threat is real. The information source cannot be traced, we can't investigate or prevent it. Moreover, they don't say where to start, which means that threats are everywhere in the realm of the empire. Doing so can maximize the scope of panic." The terrorist's crazy and data master's ability, when the two are integrated, the Secretary of State, who has experienced the baptism of the storm, frowned.

"I have informed the people from the National Security Bureau that this matter must be kept highly confidential." The head of state also felt a headache.

"If you don't explain, the National Security Bureau knows how to do it. Terrorists have never had the ability to subvert a country or a regime. Their weapons are not bombs or poison gas, but people's fear. They will spare no effort to help you promote it. Now is the era of digital, with information channels all the way, and they have data experts to help them. It is unrealistic to close the news. It won't take long to make this happen." The Secretary of State said the secret of heaven.

"Is there a way to deal with it?" the head of state asked in the middle.

"We cannot be careless. At this time, terrorist attacks broke out again because of the war. If we handled it improperly, the people's attention will shift from the war to the ability of this government. We will be very passive." After some thought, the Secretary of State continued: "We might as well consult Dr. Townsend and listen to his opinions."

"Good idea." The helpless head of state immediately connected to the special line of the mouse hole.

If the Ancient City of Crescent is the political center of the Aojia Empire and is hidden in the rat cave inside the Imperial Academy, it is a well-deserved science and technology center. Scientific research is not only biology, chemistry, data science, but also finance, politics, society and other disciplines. From a certain perspective, it is not an exaggeration to call the rat cave the Aojia Empire government's think tank. It is conceivable how closely the two are related. However, the communication between the two is mostly in daily mode, and the number of times the red alert is activated is only a few times.

As the leader of the rat cave, Dr. Townsen, although he is usually careless, he looks like the dean is holding on to the sky falling down, and he does not dare to neglect the red alert when it sounds. The old guy runs faster than a rabbit.

Even so, when he came to an independent conference room in the heart of the mouse cave, the current dean of the Imperial Academy and related core figures had been waiting for a long time.

These nervous-faced guys were guessing what was going on. Some people had no time to wipe off the sweat beads on their faces. The constant temperature of the mouse hole was twenty-five degrees, so it was very difficult to get this effect.

When the staff arrived, the dean pressed the knob on the table with a serious expression. The curtain at the back of the conference hall slowly opened, revealing a huge screen. With the soft cross light, the screen opened.

On the other end of the video is the small conference hall of the Head of State's office. In addition to the powerful figures that are rare in the past, the members of the head of state, including everyone's respect, the Secretary of State, the Director of the Security Bureau, the Minister of Defense, and Lieutenant General Rah, who has made outstanding contributions in the war on terrorism, was listed at the last seat.

"The red alert is extraordinary. How can such a scene be missing the director of the Intelligence Bureau?" A large number of rare figures on weekdays did not make Townsen confused. He was so information blocked that the Intelligence Bureau was now idle at home and was away from leisure.

The information about this terrorist threat is pitiful, and it only takes a few words to make it clear. Undoubtedly, this terrorist threat is real, and the clues are pitiful. Therefore, unlike in the past, without any heated discussion, everyone focused their attention on Townsend's old face.

"What are you looking at me for? Just one sentence, just waiting for a countermeasure?" Usually, Townsend spoke the last time, but now he was squeezed to the first place, and he was a little unable to adapt. The key is that there are so few clues that there are so few clues that he cannot speak nonsense as a person.

"There is only so much information you have at present." The head of state couldn't help but be embarrassed and glared fiercely at the middle-aged black man sitting opposite General Rah. This person was the second-person of the Intelligence Bureau. The main owner was not there, so he barely came to make up the numbers.

"Is the intelligence agency of the Aojia Empire vegetarian? The funds allocated to them every year are more than a hundred times more than the rat cave. Now that they are used, they will pass them to the head of state's office intact, and they will have nothing to do with them. It's better to remove them." Although Townsend was so angry that he was puzzled in his mind. In his impression, the intelligence agency of the Empire was not incompetent and was completely worthy of astronomical funds.

Many times, terrorists did not have time to take action, and people from the Security Bureau came to the door. Whether it was ordinary citizens of the empire or senior officials, few people questioned the capabilities of the Intelligence Bureau. People complained that the Intelligence Bureau's work often involved personal privacy.

The craziest thing is that when the Imperial Intelligence Agency started, it actually extended its tentacles to the Federation and was finally exposed due to a low-level mistake. It is not difficult to imagine how rampant this phenomenon is probably the daily work of the Intelligence Agency. After pursuing it all the way, the final result was beyond expectations. Even the head of the Aojia Empire was on the target list of the Intelligence Agency.

This incident caused a lot of controversy in the imperial capital and became a topic of relish for people after dinner. Although it was a scandal, it was enough to prove that the imperial intelligence department was conscientious and very strong. Since the supreme commander of the Federation and the head of the empire were stared by the Intelligence Bureau, there was nothing to complain about when they sacrificed their little privacy. After the storm subsided, people began to understand the way the Intelligence Bureau worked.

"The Director of Intelligence has stepped down due to illness and the new Director has not yet taken office. I am afraid it will be in chaos for a while. The situation is urgent. Dr. Townsend should not complain. You are the person in charge of the rat hole and the only master-level data expert in the Imperial Academy. A terrorist attack has occurred. Who will you look for at this time?" The Secretary of State interjected happily. After decades of situations, Townsend has not changed at all. He is still ignorant and his words are not serious.

"What is this? It seems that data teachers are all terrorists. It is your attitude that makes many talented people shy away. They either buried them from now on or become terrorists." As soon as they saw the Secretary of State, Townsend suddenly lost confidence. Although he did not blindly admire him like others, he had another admiration and respect for his former classmates and best friend, and even felt guilty.

Decades ago, the two were both students of the Imperial Academy. They were talented and had a very good relationship. They often slept in the laboratory day and night. They also had fierce debates over academic issues and were unclear. Sometimes they even tried to overcome difficulties and hugged each other like madmen.

Townsend once admitted: "He has a friend who would not lose to himself academically if he didn't go to politics."

The Secretary of State finally left the Imperial Academy. Before leaving, Townsend cursed and described his friends as villains who were greedy for power and entered the career of officialdom by relying on his family. He was willing to give up his dream. This is called self-destruction.

His friends said nothing and left without saying a word. Times have changed. Old classmates have proved everything with their actions. His achievements are unparalleled, worthy of his talents and the Aojia Empire. Compared with him, although Townsend has also become the Taishan Beidou in the academic world, it is still eclipsed and too narrow-minded.

"No clue can be found, so it's hard to deal with." Dr. Townsend grabbed the chicken coop-like hair.

"No matter what method it is, it's okay to say it." The head of state showed his courage with a rare opportunity.

"Since you can't find any clues, you have to use the stupidest method. Not everyone can break into the security bureau's data system. List people with this ability and investigate them one by one." Dr. Townsend smiled bitterly.

"Tell me who the enemy is, there is no problem that cannot be solved." The special forces of the anti-terrorism force under General Rah are one of the most elite troops in the empire. They naturally have confidence in what they say. They interject in the middle, and they also mean to protect the face of soldiers.

"Some of you have found it. There are countless people with this ability, and I don't know how many of them are. Besides, why do you know that others don't have this method? Data technicians are different from other professions. Except for a few famous people, most of them are incognito." Townsend has always been unacceptable to the style of soldiers, and his tone is naturally not much better.

"Stop going around in circles, point out the clear path." The Secretary of State smiled faintly, just as nothing can be difficult for him in state affairs, and no academic matters can be difficult for Townsend.
