The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me
Chapter 529 Police Intervention
Unless you are really desperate, no matter how stupid you are, you will not do it blatantly.
You know, any equipment problems can be found. As the contacts of all links, they naturally cannot escape punishment. Moreover, many people in the technical department were selected by them personally. Not only are they strong, but their character has also been evaluated at multiple levels. Anyone with a tainted record will not be selected into such an important department.
As long as they work hard, the government will never treat them unfairly. The amount of research and development funds invested each year is countless, and the rewards for research results are also shockingly high.
Minister Tim feels that the funding for the technical department cannot be deducted under any circumstances because they are responsible for all basic communications work, especially those related to national security, and they need to handle a lot of confidential information.
"I can't believe you now. The results are clearly in front of us. You must give a clear explanation of what is going on with these communicators, or make some remedial measures!" Baip said coldly.
Now what is the point of analyzing the cause, or shirking responsibility? The most important thing is to solve the problem.
If anything goes wrong with the Ranger Squad, who will be responsible?
Moreover, who else could be competent for those tasks? Even if the problem in that sea area was discovered by then, the United States would not have any advantage when attacking the base.
After all, that sea area is not land, nor is it something the United States is good at. They just need the Ranger Squad to take the lead, and their strong strength can provide the United States with a lot of cutting-edge information.
However, just because of a small communicator problem, some of the leading advantages were lost.
Even in the future, when a similar mission is carried out, it will be a problem as to which team to send.
There are many elite teams in the U.S. military, but the elites among the elites are rare.
Basically, every genius selected from thousands of people was sent to the Ranger Squad for training.
In other words, the Ranger Squad was selected with the efforts of the entire country, and each person in it has a unique role and is irreplaceable.
Whether on land or sea, the Ranger Squad is the most powerful. The technical director was speechless. He found that the entire department had lost the trust of Baipu.
No matter how he explained it, it was useless. Even though he had mentioned a possibility, Baip made it clear that he did not believe it.
At this time, they had no other choice but to solve the problem.
All the excuses are weak and powerless. What Baipu wants is the result, not the process or the reason.
"Wait, I think what he said may be right. The communicator has been in use at headquarters, and it was working fine just now. Now all of a sudden, all of it has failed. This is no longer due to the machinery and equipment. There is most likely other reasons." Minister Tim suddenly spoke.
He was not speaking for the director of the technical department; he was just pointing out the possibility in the middle.
Baipu is too impulsive and often doesn't listen to others. He always thinks that people who explain are trying to escape responsibility.
In fact, if you listen carefully to what the minister says, you will find that there is no problem in their department, and the minister also explained the reasons.
The reason for the failure of the communicator is not just a device problem, it may be caused by external environment, such as a signal problem.
This is what they have just been ignoring.
Just now everyone's focus was on the problem with the communicator device itself, so no one thought about other issues.
What if there is no signal at headquarters?
There is not even a signal. No matter how useful the communicators are, they cannot be turned on because there is no signal!
The feature of this device is its strong ability to capture signals, but there is also a problem. When the signal is weak, it may not even be able to turn on.
The director of the technical department also raised this possibility just now, but before he could say a few words, he was stopped by Baipu.
Baip successfully silenced the minister with the words "less talk, more action".
Because Baipu didn't want to hear any explanation, he was just eager for a result.
The technical department is willing to use any means and make any requests, as long as they can restore the communicator to normal status.
As soon as Minister Tim finished speaking, the entire office fell into silence.
The members of the technical department had already been silent for a long time, as they knew very well that in Baip's view, any excuses they made were just weak excuses to shirk responsibility.
There was a depressing atmosphere in the air. Even if there were thousands of grievances in their hearts, no one dared to speak out at this moment, let alone elaborate on the reasons. It seemed that the opportunity to speak had been completely taken away.
Fortunately, Minister Tim did not completely lose his mind. Although he was angry, he still listened carefully to the analysis put forward by the technical department and seriously thought about the possibilities.
After some contemplation, he made a bold guess: the problem might be with the signal. He expressed his opinion bluntly, but unexpectedly, this made Baipu very angry, especially in front of the technical department. Baipu's face turned livid in an instant, and he was so angry that he could hardly speak.
Baip glared at Minister Tim fiercely, his eyes full of reproach. He thought to himself: Why say these words at this time? Can't we talk about it in private? Now these remarks are undoubtedly a slap in his face in public, how can he save his face!
However, Baipu was a shrewd man after all. He did not lose his temper on the spot. Instead, he followed Minister Tim's words and signaled the people in the technical department to explain the reasoning.
At this time, the director of the technical department finally got a chance to explain. He did not dare to slack off and told all the possible situations in detail, including the most likely reason.
He slowly said, "In fact, we have fallen into the trap of fixed thinking from the beginning, and only blindly look for problems in the communicator itself. However, facts have proven that no matter how we replace new parts or re-develop, we cannot solve this problem."
He paused and continued, "This indirectly proves that the possibility of a problem with the machine itself is not great, and it is more likely that the external environment has affected it. We should check the signal from headquarters to see if there is any reason that caused the signal to suddenly become abnormal, so that the communicator cannot connect normally." Then, the director of the technical department elaborated in detail on the characteristics of the communicator they developed, and his speech was logical and clear.
After hearing this, Baipu felt a little unhappy, but he could not refute it.
Because it involved a lot of professional terms and knowledge, he was confused.
However, he did not want to reveal his ignorance, so he nodded as he listened, pretending to agree.
But in reality, he was thinking something else: When will this guy finish? Can't he just state the most crucial conclusion directly and concisely? However, he didn't say it out loud, fearing that the people in the technical department would ask him if he understood. He knew that the people in the technical department were sometimes very serious, and this was the last thing he wanted to face.
Finally, the director of the technical department came to the conclusion: "So, the problem is most likely with the signal. We should focus on checking the signal problem." His previous long speech was actually to lead to this conclusion.
At the same time, in various states of the United States, an unprecedented chaos is quietly unfolding.
After a certain moment, the whole country seemed to be trapped in a nightmare, with all kinds of "monster" phenomena emerging one after another.
The level of chaos is rare in history. Even the rumored end of the world would probably not be as exaggerated as it is now.
All network signals suddenly disappeared without a trace, which meant that no matter what crimes people committed, they would not be captured by surveillance video.
As a result, those who were usually suppressed and had a weak sense of morality walked out of their homes, wandering around with guns and machetes, robbing everything they saw. Apart from pedestrians, the most unlucky ones were the luxury stores.
Those luxury items that were usually out of reach are now carried away by people in large sacks.
Looking at this situation, it seems that everyone has lost their mind, and the mentality that the law does not punish the masses makes them even more unscrupulous. They openly "take" other people's things, high-end watches, electronic products, jewelry, brand-name shoes, and even game consoles have become their possessions.
The glass security doors of many shops were smashed to pieces, and in some cases even the shop employees took the lead in joining the commotion and engaging in the looting with great pleasure.
At this point, it is meaningless to talk to them about legal ethics.
Everyone just wants to indulge themselves. Is this the behavior of so-called "free Americans"?
The streets were filled with bustling crowds of people beating drums and gongs and marching to protest against the inaction of local officials and shouting for the resignation of President Baip and Minister Tim.
In fact, there were signs of signal loss in the suburbs long before, but the relevant departments did not investigate and deal with it in a timely manner.
The so-called evidence collection was just a formality. After all, it happened in a remote suburb, and the local authorities did not pay enough attention to it, let alone send a large team of experts to investigate.
However, just this afternoon, all of a sudden, all the signals went out, not just in the suburbs, but in every state.
People started talking about it, “It’s what they deserve! All of us in the suburbs have gone to the town to report the signal problem, but up until now, no expert team has come to deal with it, not even a perfunctory response. Now everything has gone wrong, and the government should take full responsibility!”
"Yes, we have tried our best to reflect the situation and have tried all possible methods, but it just didn't attract enough attention. It seems that what the people in the suburbs say is not convincing enough!"
"Bai Pu should step down! All leaders should step down! They don't deserve to sit in their positions and rest easy. They should all come out and apologize!"
"Give us back social justice and peace! All of this happened during Bayp's administration. There has never been such chaos and badness in American history!"
The procession grew larger and larger, and workers, students, and others rushed to the streets, shouting and yelling, hoping that the world would not be in chaos. Similar scenes were being played out in every state. Murder, robbery, arson, fighting... all kinds of evil deeds emerged one after another. At this time, people with grievances immediately took revenge, and those who were short of money went to rob banks. Everyone was busy with their own "stuff".
Some rational people chose to stay at home, locked the door, and did not dare to go out at all. Because life may be in danger at any time. Crazy crowds rushed to and fro on the streets, and serious stampedes occurred. However, some people's emotions have been crazy to the extreme, and they vented their anger desperately.
"Beep, beep, beep--!!!" One ambulance after another drove out of the hospital, but all the traffic systems had already been paralyzed. Not only that, but police cars and fire trucks were also blocked by the crowded crowds and could not move. They tried their best to control the chaotic situation, but it was far from enough for all public officials to run to the streets to maintain order. Some irritable law enforcement officers even engaged in a gun battle with the public, and the fight was in full swing.
In this country, the average person owns a gun, and almost every household has several guns. Most of the protesters brought their weapons with them, and once a verbal or physical conflict occurred, it would be difficult to control.
"Ah, someone's dead! Come and help! Someone's been shot here..."
"Oh no! I accidentally killed someone! I really didn't mean to!"
"Run! The United States is finished! Run as far as you can! Don't stay on the streets! You could die at any time!"
"Fuck! I'm a policeman! Get out of my way! Everyone, be quiet! Don't move!"
"Oh my God! My house is on fire! Someone come and help! My dog is still inside! Please save him! I can't live without him!"
With the police joining in, the situation was not under control, but became even more chaotic and terrifying. At this point, people had lost their fear of the police and became incredibly bold. They followed the people around them to make trouble and act against them, completely disregarding the consequences.
"boom--!!!"
"Bang bang bang bang-!!!"
The sound of gunfire, people's hysteria, crazy shouts of celebration, and sad cries for help intertwined together, and the entire United States seemed to have turned into a living hell on earth. Various terrible scenes emerged one after another, and the situation was completely out of control.
On the other side, after a well-reasoned explanation, the director of the technical department and other staff finally got their mobile phones and other equipment. After a careful inspection, they found that there was indeed no signal.
"Look! It's not just the communicator! Our phones are also having problems! Everyone, check your devices! See if there's any signal?" the technical director shouted. His voice revealed a bit of excitement, fear, and panic, and his mood was particularly complicated at the moment. (End of this chapter)
