Chapter 201 The Squid Project
North America.

America's east coast.

Jacksonville on the Florida-Georgia border.

In summer, the warm sea breeze blows over this coastal city, bringing warm water vapor from the warm North Atlantic Ocean.

In the nearby Kings Bay, there is the famous local submarine base of the US military, which is also known as the navy's most leisurely rest harbor.

At this time, four nuclear submarines, USS Florida, USS Alaska, USS Maryland, and USS Wyoming, were moored in the submarine-only port in the bay.

A large number of sailors regard this place as a vacation place.

The maintenance personnel who were dispatched to maintain the submarine were currently overhauling the Florida.

Mark, the engineer who was inspecting the sound-absorbing tiles on the surface of the submarine, checked perfunctorily, when suddenly he was tapped on the shoulder, and Mark, who was startled, looked behind him angrily.

The tall and tall boss was looking at him with displeasure, and then threatened: "Mark, don't you want to do it anymore? If there is something wrong with the silencer tile, you will go to a military court."

"Got it..." Mark replied very perfunctorily.

Suddenly his eyes widened.

what?
torpedo?

"Mark! Are you listening?" The boss got even angrier.

But Mark pointed at the sea behind his boss with trembling hands: "Torpedo! There are torpedoes!"

"What? This joke is not funny at all..." The boss was at a loss.

But Mark, with a terrified expression, pulled his boss to lie on the deck in an instant.

boom!Not far away, near the waterline on the side of the Alaska, a big hole was blown out in an instant, and the violent explosion caused a column of water to soar into the sky.

Mark and his boss, who were more than 200 meters away, were immediately drenched by sea water.

"What's going on? Enemy attack?" The boss got up and looked at the Alaska tilted a little bit in shock.

Just now.

The siren of the base screamed mournfully.

The sailors in the port were like headless chickens, confused by the sudden explosion and sirens.

In fact, it is not surprising that the sailors at the Kings Bay base are so lax and at a loss. The main reason is that this is the mainland of America, and the base has never been attacked since its establishment.

In addition, over the past 30 years, America has become accustomed to domineering all over the world, and never thought that anyone would dare to break ground on Taisui.

Mark quickly left the submarine deck.

Other colleagues also ran out of the submarine one after another.

At this moment, the radiation detectors carried by several engineers responsible for overhauling the nuclear reactor beeped intensively.

"Oh my God!"

"what happened?"

"Could it be that the reactor of the Alaska was hit!"

Mark shook his head: "Impossible, I saw that the torpedo didn't hit the reactor."

"Stop talking, leave!"

The overhaul engineers who reacted didn't care about anything else, and rushed to the underground bunker inside the base with all their might.

Fortunately, several engineers were more conscientious. Before fleeing, they reported to the military officer in charge of the maintenance work that the radiation at the explosion site exceeded the standard, and asked the other party to quickly prepare radiation protection measures.

After more than half an hour of chaos, the base finally gradually returned to normal order.

But at this time, Major General Carnegie, who was in charge of the base, had an expression on his face as if he had eaten a few kilograms of flies.

"Nuclear radiation seriously exceeded the standard? Dozens of sailors showed signs of radiation sickness? Bastard! Could it be that the reactor was destroyed?"

However, Lieutenant Colonel Kevin, the person in charge of the maintenance work, and Lieutenant Colonel Austin, the person in charge of the base security work, shook their heads in unison.

"The reactor was not destroyed? Where did the nuclear radiation come from? Do you want to tell me that the Alaska was attacked by a nuclear bomb?" Major General Carnegie asked very angrily.

Lieutenant Colonel Kevin replied solemnly: "Yes, Major General, we were attacked by a nuclear bomb! To be precise, it was a dirty bomb. The explosion did not produce a large amount of fission reaction, but the radioactive dust Into base submarines and ports."

"..." Major General Carnegie was in a bad mood. After a while, he yelled, "Fack squid! Who did it?"

However, it was no use how they yelled.

……

The U.S. military, and even the City on a Hill Council behind it, received this urgent notification at the same time.

In Virginia's Appalachian Mountains.

Inside a low-key manor hidden here, this is one of the four rotation points of the City on the Hill Council.

This quarter just came to this point as a temporary office for the Council.

The formation of the four-city rotation system is mainly because the core members of the City on the Hill Council belong to various consortium families. If they are fixed in one place, families and consortiums in other regions will have opinions.

Therefore, a remote small city was selected in the southeast, northwest, respectively, as the office location for each quarter.

At the same time, it also represents that every quarter, the families and financial groups in the region will become the rotating directors of the season.

The Appalachian Mountains are in the eastern part of North America, which means that the rotating directors at this time are people from the Wall Street financial consortium.

For example, Li Qingye's "old friend" Thomas Morgan is here right now.

"The Kings Bay base was raided by a dirty bomb?" Thomas' expression was very calm, but the anger in his eyes was not small: "Is this the security you keep saying?"

Whether it was the Black Ship (CIA), the FBI, or the generals of the US military, they all lowered their heads at this time, not daring to look directly at the sharp gazes of Thomas and others.

Another chubby Mediterranean old man put down the cigar in his hand: "Huh... have you found out who it is?"

"Yes...it's the three-leaf oak!" Jack replied nervously.

"Shamrock? Is that the organization that has caused a lot of trouble in Latin America recently?" Thomas's eyes flashed a hint of viciousness and suspicion.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on Jack's forehead: "Yes, they marked the pattern of the three-leaf oak on the torpedo shell, but it may be deliberately camouflaged by other forces."

Thomas immediately issued an order: "Continue to investigate! I don't care if it's made of three-leaf oak or not, but the source of the raw material for the dirty bomb must be found out."

The other rotating directors also nodded.

In their view, the three-leaf oak in Latin America does not have the strength to refine uranium 235, even if the concentration of uranium 0.5 is only 235, it cannot be produced by this kind of underground mouse.

And for this kind of thing, there is a high probability that other powers or regional bullies are behind the scenes.

The location happened in the North Atlantic Ocean again, and the high probability is the forces around the North Atlantic Ocean.

In this way, the scope of the black hand behind the scenes is further narrowed.

Even an old spy like Jack, who has been engaged in intelligence for a lifetime, has no doubts about going to East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia at this time.

After all, the distance between the two places is tens of thousands of kilometers, conventional submarines cannot submerge for such a long time, and only a few forces have nuclear submarines.

According to their intelligence, the nuclear submarines of those forces in southeast Asia all have alibi.

As for the adoption of other solutions, such as transport by civilian ships, and then secretly release them near Kings Bay, that is also possible.

But in this way, as long as you investigate the ship records in recent days, you can basically identify which ships have passed in the surrounding waters.

Apparently, they didn't realize that the torpedo came submerged by themselves, which involved the current technical blind spot.

As a result, the Black Ship investigated in the wrong direction from the very beginning.

Such a serious incident occurred in the mainland, and the black boat almost devoted most of its energy to the investigation of this incident.

On the Southeast Asian side, Joshua is posing as a business inspector of a multinational trading company and heading to the Borneo region of Malaysia.
