"What's going on? Gentlemen, who can you give me an explanation!"

The White House, and the last year's president, asked to the people in front of him with a cold face, among them, were the White House chief of staff, the president's state adviser, and the heads of several key departments, including NRO's director Peter. △￠

The US government's discovery of an alien base on Pluto and the plan to start landing on Pluto caused a stir in the whole world in just one day. The President, who was on vacation, was shocked when he learned about it because he didn't know about it at all. It was not until he rushed back to the White House that he found out that it actually existed, and it was almost the same as the content promoted online.

Not long ago, NASA discovered an alien civilization facility on Pluto through the Mars Climate Reconnaissance Mars rover that accidentally flew to Pluto orbit. Then NRO took over the matter and joined forces with ODNI to establish a huge "Zeus Project" in Area 51.

When he learned of the existence of this plan, the anger in the President almost reached its peak. Yes, his term will end next year. From the current perspective, he is already a "left-behind president". But as long as he does not move out of the White House for a day, he will still be the president of the United States and the supreme head of this great country.

"Peter, you are the director of NRO. I think this explanation is more appropriate, right?" As the chief of staff, he is the unscrupulous confidant of the President. Although the angry president brought them together and asked such words at the same time, everyone present understood that the president was really targeting the NRO organization that was actually responsible. Peter was the director of NRO. He knew the inside story about this matter more than anyone on the scene, so it was most appropriate to explain it to the President. Moreover, in the opinion of the chief of staff, Peter, as the director of NRO, must bear responsibility for such incidents.

"Explanation? Why do you need to explain?" Peter looked at the chief of staff coldly, and a sneered on his lips: "As an intelligence agency, you do not need to explain to anyone if it meets the procedures, let alone Mr. Chief of Staff, don't forget that there was a precedent in the Manhattan plan. Until the research was successful, President Truman had never known the existence of the plan."

"You!" Unexpectedly, Peter forced his words back, but what Peter said was right. The intelligence agency is a relatively special department. Its independence and particularity determines the differences between them and other government departments. In fact, in some aspects, even the US president has no right to inquire about the normal work of the intelligence agency. As long as Peter can provide procedures that meet all procedures, the existence of this Zeus plan is legal.

Peter was not polite to the chief of staff, but Peter had to give him some face to the cold-faced President. He immediately reported to the President the ins and outs of the entire Zeus plan and the current project progress, and even provided the information about the success of the controlled thermonuclear fusion experiment test that had been prepared long ago.

"Mr. President, due to the previous Lingjing Gate incident, NRO has strictly kept the entire plan confidential, which not only takes into account the importance of the plan, but also takes into account the interests of the United States."

"The interests of the United States?" The President looked up at Peter and frowned slightly.

"That's right! It's the national interests of the United States!" Peter repeated in an emphasis tone. He preached to the President, including everyone present. Since controlled thermonuclear fusion technology will bring earth-shaking changes in the energy structure to human society, if this incident is spread, it will inevitably affect the interests of the United States in the world, thereby disrupting 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 that when the whole world knows that the controllable thermonuclear fusion technology is successful, then the originally popular oil fields will become garbage that no one cares about. The practical value of primary energy such as oil, natural gas, and coal will inevitably plummet. Coupled with the chain reaction of a large number of related industries, what impact will the United States have on it?

It is precisely for these considerations that Zeus' plan has been strictly confidential since the beginning and is in a state of extreme confidentiality. All of the decisions made by NRO are made in the interests of the United States. As NRO's director, 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 whole of America in an extremely passive situation." The state adviser suddenly asked. As the confidant of the President, he was of course standing with the chief of staff. Peter said these words beautifully. If nothing happened now, everything could be explained. But the problem is that Peter just forgot that the situation is different now. His so-called secrets have long been known to the whole world. On the contrary, those who hold the highest rights of the United States are the last group to learn the news. This is simply a joke.

"I don't deny this." Peter replied indifferently: "According to NRO's investigation, the original source of the news is likely to be the Aerospace Administration. It should be noted that from the current circulating information, the so-called insiders do not know Zeus' plan, but are just an inference made according to common sense."

"Inferred? Haha, Mr. Peter, are you planning to shift the blame?" The state consultant grabbed Peter's sick words and immediately pursued and fought relentlessly.

"Straighten? There is no need for this." Peter shrugged and said indifferently: "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 online news is completely a storm. We just need to deny it."

"You are doing this to damage the image of the United States!"

"Wrong! I am protecting the interests of America!"

Peter and the state adviser immediately confronted each other, and soon the chief of staff joined in. Then Cia and F-command stood with Peter for their considerations. Several parties suddenly had a verbal battle in the White House office. One voice was louder than the other. Looking at the chaotic scene, the President felt that his head had been bigger three times.

"Enough!"

The President, who really couldn't stand it, slapped the pen in his hand on the table, and the sound of the office suddenly calmed down, but both sides still stared at their small eyes, as if they were not convinced by each other.

"Let's consider how to solve the current problem." The President, who was struggling with a serious face, said with a serious face. When things got to this point, he could only get along with it. Although he was angry that NRO and other intelligence agencies had created such a Zeus plan without hiding it, he also did not agree with the views of the chief of staff and state adviser. As the president of the United States, his duty is to lead the country to continue to become the only superpower in the world. To do this, national interests are supreme. Therefore, from the current situation, he can only choose this method.

However, when the President said this, everyone at the scene seemed to have lost their voices for a moment, as if the mouth had been operated and had been sewn with thread.

Now, due to a series of reactions caused by the Pluto alien base incident in the United States, demonstrations occur frequently throughout the country. In addition, Professor Kevin Adams' unfair treatment has been arguing against major companies, institutions, including California Institute of Technology. Although the United States has strong national strength, the United States is also a democratic and free country. The Constitution gives every American freedom of speech. Once the government makes use of the public's speech or other fierce means, no one dares to take the risk. Moreover, before the meeting, everyone also received a new news that the presidential candidates of both parties are already ready to move through this incident. If the government does not respond well, the entire situation may undergo unpredictable changes.

Seeing the noisy people in front of him become mute at this time, a feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart. During his seven-year term, he realized that he could not do anything as the president, let alone solve the current problem.

Just as the President was distressed and turned his tentative eyes to his most trusted chief of staff, the door of the office suddenly rang.

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 Council has just received the 'request' from various countries, I hope you can take a look."

"Request?" The President looked at the Secretary of State in confusion. The Secretary of State put a stack of documents on the table with a serious expression. He picked up the documents and looked at them. Who would have thought that the more he looked, the darker he would be? What kind of request was almost an ultimatum. At the top was from Russia. Russia asked the United States to open up the Zeus plan in full, and at the same time proposed that Russia could work closely with the United States to cooperate with the United States on controlled thermonuclear fusion devices, including the Pluto landing plan. If the United States refuses to cooperate, then Russia will take necessary measures, including submitting it to the United Nations for discussion, and retaining other fierce means...

In addition to Russia, there are more than a dozen countries including China, France, Germany, Italy, India, etc. The "requests" made by these countries are basically the same as Russia, but there is a slight difference in the wording. Even the British, who have always been known as the younger brother of the United States, have put forward similar conditions. What makes the President angry is that the two dogs raised by the Americans, Japan and South Korea, actually proposed a "request" to follow the United States to join the Pluto project.
