The daily life of American TV agents

Chapter 587 Changes in Calm
Because of all the preparations for the wedding, Sheldon was finally tied up and had no chance to go crazy. Ron rarely had a few days of leisure, but this kind of leisure was today, when he returned home. changed.

"Good evening, Ron."

As soon as Ron pushed open the door, he saw Sheldon in suits and ties waving at him in a friendly way, almost obsequiously. This situation has never happened to Ron since Sheldon was born. Traveled to a parallel time and space.

"You... are you really Sheldon?" Ron stuttered in surprise: "Impossible, my brother can't be so polite, you must be a monster from some alien! Say, take my brother Sheldon Where is Dun hiding? I'll hand him over!"

Ron drew out his pistol vigilantly and pointed it at the innocent Sheldon. Sheldon screamed and hid behind the sofa. People switch packages.

Leonard hurriedly and carefully pressed En En's pistol: "How about Ron, why don't you listen to what Sheldon has to say before making a judgment?"

"Okay," Ron nodded and squinted Sheldon's eyes: "Go ahead, what do you want to say?"

Shelton carefully poked his head out from behind the sofa, and after confirming that Ron had put the gun back into the holster, he came out cautiously from behind the sofa, as if he was going to get angry at Ron, but after Leonard winked for a while, he was about to The angry expression was retracted, and continued to be replaced by the flattering expression just now.

"Ron, can you give me some money?"

"Want money? Are you planning to accept gift money? Well, I did prepare some for you."

Ron took out a red envelope from his pocket and stuffed it into Sheldon's hand. Sheldon hurriedly opened it to check, only to find that there were only two $100 bills in the red envelope, which made him very disappointed.

"How do you get this little money?"

Ron's face darkened, and he snatched the red envelope that Sheldon had just taken away: "I don't think there is any money, I will give you a vase when you get married, as a wedding gift."

"Wait! You can't do this!" Shelton screamed: "I want money for science, not for my own enjoyment! You must help me."

Thinking of the problems that Sheldon has solved for him with his scientific research strength and the money he earned over the years, Ron softened his heart. Anyway, most of his money was earned by Sheldon. If Shelton If Dun encounters any trouble in scientific research, it makes sense to help him solve it himself.

Ron took out his checkbook helplessly: "Okay, I'll take it as an investment in your scientific research, let me say first, if this research generates income, all the income will belong to me."

"No problem!" Sheldon quickly agreed.

Ron took out the signature pen: "How much do you want?"

"Five hundred million." Sheldon said earnestly.

"Oh," Ron lowered his head and was about to write down the amount in the checkbook, when he suddenly paused and scratched his ears: "Wait, how much did you say just now? I didn't hear clearly."

"[-] million, [-] million dollars, hurry up and write!" Sheldon urged heartlessly, not realizing that Ron's expression had changed.

"Why don't you grab $[-] million?" Ron stuffed the check back into his pocket again: "What are you crazy about? Need so much money? Do you know what $[-] million is? Our IRS special That's the half-year funding for the action team! Leonard, do you know what he's going crazy about?"

"I can assure you that Sheldon is not crazy this time," Leonard said helplessly to Sheldon. "Today when we were in school, we thought of a way to prove string theory, which is to create a black hole."

"Create a black hole? I didn't know that black holes could be artificially created." Ron said in surprise.

"Theoretically, as long as 2148 high-power lasers are used to compress 20 micrograms of gold to a small enough mass, a miniature black hole can be created, but the cost of such high-power lasers has always been astronomical, so Sheldon The lion will open his mouth, this is already the cheapest price I can figure out."

Leonard said helplessly, in fact, not only Sheldon, but he is also full of interest in this project, and he is also a scientist. Although there are some differences in level, they are all similar in their desire for the unknown.

But if the ideas of Sheldon and Leonard are endless exploration of the unknown, then Ron's thinking is all based on reality:

"So besides confirming string theory, does this scientific research have any other benefits to me or to the world? Can this miniature black hole be weaponized? Do I need to worry that it will continue to absorb the surrounding matter? Gradually expand, and eventually swallow the entire earth or the solar system?"

"This possibility is not ruled out." Sheldon and Leonard looked at each other and nodded.

Ron rolled his eyes, he was helpless towards these two living treasures: "So what is your purpose of doing this? Sheldon? Don't you worry that it will create an end of the world and destroy the entire human race? "

"But at least they'll know I'm right before they die."

"Ok."

"You promised?"

"No, I mean okay, I should really take you to see the brain," Ron sighed: "Can't you go to the school to ask for funds to do this project?"

"This is a good idea." Sheldon's eyes lit up, and his attention immediately shifted from asking Ron for money to how to get the money from the school: "What kind of clothes do you think it would be better for me to go to the university to ask for the money?" ?”

"If you are a girl with a good figure, I suggest wearing a bikini under the windbreaker, but considering your not plump hardware, I suggest you play a trick, unless your principal happens to have this hobby, he has Leonard?"

Ron looked at Leonard, Leonard thought for a while and shook his head quickly, Ron spread his hands: "Then there is no way, it seems that you can only win this funding by tactics."

"How to do it? Quickly teach me!" Sheldon urged urgently.

"First of all, you need to ask them for 2000 million," Ron said with a smirk. "Tell them that you only need 2000 million, and you can successfully verify string theory."

Sheldon shook his head blankly: "Impossible, it can't be verified at all."

"Of course, I also know this, but after they invest 2000 million, it will be much easier for you to ask them for an additional investment of 5000 million."

Ron's tone began to take on a hint of conspiracy. Sheldon was fascinated, but Leonard felt a little shuddering.

"But even with the addition of 5000 million, the difference is still far away!"

"That's right, but with a total of 7000 million sunk costs, wouldn't it be easier if you asked them to double the investment?" Ron bewitched like a devil: "After that, talk to them again." Double it, and then double it again, and you'll have all you need."

In the spirit of being a dead fellow but not a poor one, Ron taught Sheldon all the secrets of defrauding funds in the IRS.

And while Ron was teaching Sheldon how to cheat funds, a secret meeting attended by all high-level officials was also in progress at the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia.

"It's been three full months, and I'm pretty sure that my father is dead. He is an important hidden military force deployed by our CIA in Africa. Although countless pieces of information point to his death as the missile retaliation caused by the unauthorized attack on Chinese nationals, But according to eyewitnesses, it was Bourne, the traitor among us, who actually killed Pop."

The new person in charge of the stumbling block project, Pamela Landy got up and made a final statement: "We must admit that Bourne is no longer the sharpest dagger in our hands, and has now become a threat The most destabilizing factor in the stumbling block project, we must get rid of him."

The director of the Central Intelligence Agency tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table: "Where is he now?"

"The last time he appeared was in Russia, but that was intelligence three weeks ago, and no one can be sure if he is still there now."

"Then why didn't you send someone to kill him immediately?"

"Because we don't have anyone available now, sir," Pamela shook her head helplessly: "He used to be our most elite agent, whether it is close combat with firearms or tracking or anti-tracking technology, he is at the top level. People can't deal with him at all, and after my investigation, I found that this person has a very deep social background, and we have dealt with her hastily before."

"Social relationship? I don't understand what you're talking about. Wasn't he carefully selected by us? An agent who was born as an orphan? Even if he died, no one would remember to come to us for an explanation." The director of the CIA frowned slightly. He hated the situation as being out of control.

"Yes, he is an orphan, but during her training at the Secret Service Academy, she also made some very good friends, even Ethan, the super agent in the IMF team with a 100% mission completion rate, is his best friend, not to mention He has an equally close relationship with Ron, the IRS saboteur."

Pamela handed over the recently summarized information on Bourne's social relations to the CIA director: "There is information that he was able to kill Dad in Africa because of Ron's help."

"Damn it, it's this Ron again!" The CIA director threw the information on the table angrily. Obviously, he knew Ron, and the way he met him was not pleasant.

"Is this Ron very difficult?" Pamela was promoted to her current position by virtue of her family relationship. He had only heard about the legend of Ron, but he didn't know it. It was just that everyone he came into contact with It is agreed that this is a very troublesome character.

"It's more than troublesome. If he stands on the opposite side of us, it will be more troublesome than 1 Bourne. What's more annoying is that our CIA belongs to the Pentagon and is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense. In the Department of Defense, many generals are against He has a good impression, that is to say, we have no way to deal with him openly, understand?"

"Okay, I understand." Pamela nodded unconvinced, and just about to speak, a hurried agent walked in: "No, something big happened, our stumbling block plan, and The Prism surveillance program has just been disclosed to the Russian media by a defector, and they are now reporting these things, which has caused an uproar in Europe, what should we do now?"

Interrupted by this sudden news, Pamela immediately shut up very smartly. Of course, he knew what the consequences would be if these secret American plans were exposed. This can be seen from the director's fingers that became more and more rapid as he knocked on the table. Come out, if he speaks now and cannot come up with a solution, even with the support of family power, the end will not be much better.

Coincidentally, all this was thanks to Ron they had just discussed.

A day ago, the hacker who was deliberately let go by Ron successfully applied for political asylum in Russia, and then immediately called the local media to hold a press conference. T himself and Bourne, who escorted him all the way to Russia, let out a bad breath.

Pamela sat quietly on the sidelines, waiting for the director's reply. After about 10 minutes, the director's finger tapping on the table suddenly stopped: "Let our media start to act and say that all this is a Russian conspiracy. They have been anti-Russian for so long, no matter how many times they say such a conspiracy theory, they will believe it."

"As for the stumbling block project..." The director of the CIA returned his gaze to Pamela's face: "From now on, the stumbling block project is officially renamed as the Black Rose Project, and you are fully responsible for it. Your first task now is to get the exposed person And Bourne will kill them all."

"Yes, sir."

When the CIA meeting ended, Ron's action to ask for funds also ended in failure, and he sat on the sofa with a decadent expression on his face.

"No way? Did the school still refuse to provide you with funding using my method?" Ron asked puzzled.

"Yes, I did everything you told me, but it didn't work at all."

"Wait, everything you said is exactly what I said, the kind that is not bad at all? That is to say, have you told the school all the plans for additional funds in the future?"

"Of course, they are not like what you said at all. They told me directly and let me go."

Sheldon said aggrievedly, and Ron had already closed his eyes in despair: "Sheldon, you are really the best! The plan for additional funding later, that is the plan! You don't need to tell them! If you tell them, you will How do you get money from them?"

"It's all your fault. You didn't tell me that you couldn't tell me all the plans. What should I do now? Can I just let go of such a chance to win the Nobel Prize?" Sheldon said unwillingly.

Leonard put a cup of hot drink on the ground for him: "Not necessarily, maybe wait a little longer, when the science advances enough, the price of high-power lasers may come down, just like the previous DVD players, the previous one had to be on the market Thousands of dollars, but I was throwing it at bugs the other day."
