('') Bad money wants to assassinate someone

Today, the Trisolaran-related intelligence department of the PDC Planetary Defense Directorate, that is, the Earth Defense and Security Department, received a piece of top-secret information from within the ETO Earth Trisolaran organization, saying that the Trisolaran high-level officials were preparing to issue a certain order to ETO.

An assassination order requiring them to kill a target at all costs?

As for who the target is, no specific information can be returned from the hidden line within ETO.

Because the confidentiality level of the information is very high, the names, photos and other information of the assassination target are not known. All we know is that ETO needs to make arrangements in N City based on the real-time information Sophon will deliver at that time, and will wait until the assassination is about to begin.

Pass the relevant information of the assassinated target to the hands of ETO operators who are executing the assassination plan on the spot?

Therefore, in view of the importance of intelligence, several people, including a head of the Earth Defense and Security Department, started a secret mission in a specially-made room in the conference room of the PDC Planetary Defense Council and the Earth Defense and Security Department, which was said to be able to effectively shield Sophon prying eyes.

Emergency consultations on the information obtained.

At this time, in the somewhat small, dark and dull room, the lights were focused on the center of the long conference table, and the words 'Emergency Meeting' were flashing on the big screen. Below was a real-time satellite image of N City. Each building,

Every street is almost visible under the surveillance of high-precision satellites.

However, several high-level officials of the Earth Defense and Security Department who were present at this time had their brows furrowed, and the conference room was filled with a depressing and urgent atmosphere. Everyone's emotions and expressions seemed a little solemn.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

As the meeting officially began, several people were silent for a while, making sure that all the participants had read the paper information placed on their desks. Finally, a man wearing a general's military uniform, who could be identified by his skin color and military uniform, was a certain person.

Senior leaders from major Asian countries stationed at the PDC spoke first:

"Everyone!"

"We have just received this piece of information. I think everyone should be aware of its seriousness. It is self-evident, so I won't explain it further."

"This is an assassination order circulated within ETO. It is directly directed at an unknown target that obviously poses a threat to the Trisolaris."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, glanced at everyone present, his eyes showed unquestionable determination, and he pondered for a while before continuing:

"But the current problem is..."

"Similar to the remnants of ETO who are preparing to carry out the assassination, we currently do not know any information about the target who is about to be assassinated!"

"Listen clearly, it's anything!"

“We don’t know whether the other person is a boy or a girl, old or young, we don’t know the other person’s name, last name, or any other information that we might be able to find any clues about, let alone why the other person was affected by Trisolaris.

Consider it a thorn in the flesh!"

"There's not even a blurry photo of the other person!"

"so……"

“Everyone, let’s talk about it!”

"What should we do this time?"

After saying that, the leader stopped and looked at the people present, as if he wanted to see if anyone had any good ideas.

"Well..."

At this time, another senior female official from the Ministry of Defense and Security of the Earth, whose face was covered with age spots but had a calm face and a hooked nose. She pondered for a while, then tapped her fingers on the table and nodded.

He sighed and said:

"really!"

"Mr. Chang made it very clear just now. The ambiguity of the intelligence this time has made us quite passive."

"Since the last time we launched an operation to deal a serious blow to ETO and obtained a lot of their information and information, the Trisolarans have become more cautious, and they have become a lot more honest recently."

"And this time they suddenly contacted ETO and prepared to carry out an assassination, does it prove that the target is indeed very important, at least it is a threat to them?"

"But the problem is..."

"We don't have any information about the assassinated target, no photos, and we don't even have a clear execution time and place. This is almost a headless defense."

“N City is so big, I don’t know what to do!”

"If we implement comprehensive control, it will require too much manpower and material resources. Moreover, the key is that we don't know who to protect!"

After saying that, the woman had a hint of helplessness in her tone, then shook her head and sighed, indicating that she had a clear understanding of the difficulty of this mission and felt that it would definitely not go well by then.

"Whoever he (she) is!"

Soon, another senior executive also spoke. The other person slapped the table and said loudly in a bold and loud voice:

"We can't sit still and wait for death!"

"Since the Trisolarans attach so much importance to that goal, then the other party must have information or technology that is crucial to us."

"Or at least the other party has technology or intelligence that makes the Trisolarans afraid!"

"Everyone knows that the data shows that the social structure of the Trisolarans is a purely technological society. They cannot understand concepts such as emotions and morality."

"Of course, that's not important!"

"The key is that the thinking of the Trisolarans is highly transparent. They don't play any conspiracies. And since they have decided to kill someone, that person must be very dangerous to them?"

"In this case, we must find him and protect him at all costs."

"Anyway!"

"Those who are opposed by Trisolaris and ETO must be supported unconditionally, and those who are assassinated by Trisolaris and ETO must be protected unconditionally!"

"That's right!"

"Anyway, we have no other better way!"

After saying that, the senior executive stood up, put his hands on the table, spoke fiercely with firm eyes and gritted teeth, as if he was ready to fight ETO at any time.

"Ha ha!"

"I totally agree!"

The man had just finished shouting, and on the other side, a middle-aged white man wearing glasses, who looked very wise and elegant, chuckled and spoke:

"Congressman Abdul's point just now is correct."

"But there is one thing I want to add."

"I think we can't act too blindly. First of all, we need to analyze the way the Sophons transmit information, at least through insiders to know how they will transmit the assassination information."

"Although we are really helpless with sophons and can't see or touch them, is it possible that we still can't crack the communication equipment of ETO personnel?"

"Find and target their operators, then crack and intercept their communication equipment, and ensure that when they receive the target information, we can also receive it at the same time."

"By then, I believe we should be able to take more initiative?"

"besides!"

"By monitoring the opponent's operators, we can predict the operational areas where ETO may launch assassinations to reduce the pressure on our protection."

"Finally, we will also strengthen the monitoring of N City at the same time to ensure that any abnormalities can be detected as soon as possible."

While he was explaining, he was still making gestures with his fingers in the air, and his words and eyes revealed his excellent analytical skills and thoughtfulness. Then, while explaining, he did not forget to remind you clearly and clearly that it would be necessary at that time.

Noticed some small details.

"There is one more thing that needs special attention!"

"We can't just rely on passive monitoring and defense, we must also prepare a set of contingency plans, just in case our predictions are wrong, or if ETO takes unexpected actions, can we make some remedies?

"If possible, once the target is identified, I suggest that we take action in advance to directly protect it and evacuate it from the urban area of ​​N city!"

In this way, under the gaze of everyone, he expressed his opinions and certain opinions.

"how……"

"Well..."

"feasible……"

"Anything you need to add?"

"No……"

"If not, then let's do this!"

"..."

"..."

After the middle-aged white man wearing glasses finished speaking, the other people at the meeting began to discuss in low voices among each other, and finally nodded to each other, feeling that what everyone had just said had been very clear and comprehensive, and there was nothing more.

After they had something to add, they all stopped and looked at the general officer named 'Mr. Chang' from the Earth Defense and Security Department who was the first to speak.

"Okay!"

Upon seeing this, Mr. Chang, who was wearing an officer's uniform, saw that everyone had reached a consensus and had nothing to add, he nodded and finally concluded:
To be continued...
