The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

"Nothing urgent?" Lin Feng continued to ask.

"Yes."

The maid nodded.

"That's fine then. Tell them to wait until tomorrow. I'm busy today."

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and lay back down on the sofa, feeling utterly bored.

"what?"

The maid was dumbfounded. The other party was a Wallfacer of the same level, and he just disappeared like that?

"Oh, what? This is part of the plan."

Chapter 22 He is a qualified Wallfacer

Lin Feng's presidential motorcade stopped in front of a hotel. Lin Feng got out of the car, straightened his clothes, and strode inside.

Walking through it, the echoes were very loud. This hotel had been booked by the Wallfacer, Feng Taylor, since yesterday, as a meeting place for him and two other Wallfacers.

No one other than agents from the U.S. intelligence community will enter before the meeting concludes.

"Sorry I'm late."

Lin Feng waved from afar. When he arrived at the second floor of the hotel, he saw two people standing on the edge of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding wine glasses in one hand and looking at the street scene outside the window.

Hearing the echo of Lin Feng's footsteps, the two turned around to look at Lin Feng who was walking towards them.

"We thought you weren't coming today."

The speaker was a brown-skinned, stocky South American.

Lin Feng was no stranger to this person; he had often seen him in the news. He was Manuel Rediaz, the current president of Venezuela!

“I’m not that rude, Mr. Diaz.”

"What brings you two here to see me?"

Lin Feng shrugged indifferently and then asked the two men why they had come.

"Why did you refuse to attend the Wallfacer hearing?" Rediaz asked.

"Because it's part of my plan," Lin Feng replied dismissively.

The Wallfacer hearings, simply put, are meetings between Wallfacers and the United Nations to discuss matters related to the Wallfacer program, such as minimizing its impact on humanity and informing the United Nations on how to implement the Wallfacer program more concretely.

But Lin Feng didn't want to go, because it would be pointless and would only cause a lot of trouble.

Take the Hong Electronics energy storage project as an example. Labor wages in country A are low; could the wages for Hong Electronics energy storage be reduced? The construction of the energy storage project is causing serious environmental impacts in country B; could it be postponed? Country C needs to develop its military and doesn't have enough money for construction; could it receive some subsidies from the Hong Electronics energy storage project?

In short, it's all a bunch of trivial stuff that has nothing to do with The Three-Body Problem.

"But your approach is clearly useless," said Radiaz. "Even if you imitate that useless Luo Ji, you can't fool ETO. You were still broken through by the Wallbreaker and failed just like your father."

Bill Hines, who had been silent, said with dissatisfaction, "Mr. Diaz, watch your words. If Luo Ji is a piece of trash, then what are you? Taylor and his son may have failed, but they are respectable. At least their sacrifice gives us a direction to warn the Wallbreakers."

"Don't forget, ETO has prepared wallbreakers for us."

Listening to the argument between the two, Lin Feng sighed inwardly. This was one of the reasons why he didn't want to go to the Wallfacer hearings, as Wallfacers would engage in political wrangling and attacks on each other.

Why are the Wallfacers able to consolidate power?

That's because the pressure from the Trisolarans forced all of humanity to centralize power; without centralization, nothing could be accomplished.

However, why are there four Wallfacers?

Why four of them?

Why can't it be five or six?

In fact, the quotas were allocated due to political forces. Lin Feng's Wallfacer quota came from American political forces, Bill Hines' Wallfacer quota came from various European countries, and Regina's Wallfacer quota came from small countries around the world, such as North Korea and Vietnam.

In the world Lin Feng now inhabits, Venezuela is the first small country to defeat the United States and wields extremely powerful influence over small countries around the world.

However, because the rights of Wallfacers are derived from political power, Wallfacers can actually attack and be wary of each other for political purposes.

Hines's rebuttal to Diaz wasn't out of genuine dissatisfaction with what Diaz said, but rather out of wariness towards Diaz.

"So what? You two came here specifically to mock me because I was broken through by ETO's wallbreaker?"

“If that’s your thinking, you’re probably going to be disappointed. I’m not going to give up on myself like my old man did.”

After all, Lin Feng had already achieved his initial goal, so what reason did he have to have such thoughts?

Lin Feng's initial plan was not aimed at the Trisolarans; he simply wanted to alleviate the internal strife during the Great Depression.

As for what follows, all his orders must not be related to ball lightning, and must be completely deviated from the plan.

None of that matters; he's actually quite happy to be relaxed.

"Is being breached by ETO something to be so happy about? Why are you still laughing?"

Radiaz looked at Lin Feng with a strange expression. He could tell that it wasn't a fake smile or a forced one.

But this only made him more puzzled, as did Hines, who was standing to the side.

Seeing the two of them like this, Lin Feng shrugged speechlessly.

"You take the plan too seriously and underestimate yourselves. So what if the plan is disrupted? As long as you still have brains, can't you come up with other plans?"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Diaz's eyes, and Hines nodded slightly as if he understood.

"So, you're so confident because you have other plans?" Hines asked.

Lin Feng confidently raised his chin slightly and said, "Of course, the last plan that was breached was just a trial balloon. I have prepared multiple plans from the beginning, and there will always be one that directly threatens the Trisolarans."

In fact, no. Lin Feng was just trying to save face by blatantly lying to the two Wallfacers. Anyway, these two couldn't read minds, so whatever Lin Feng said was true.

Radiaz and Hines exchanged glances, then spoke to Lin Feng.

"In that case, we have no further questions."

"Goodbye, Feng Taylor. Although this meeting was brief, I think we both gained something."

The two said goodbye to Lin Feng and turned to leave, leaving Lin Feng completely bewildered.

Seriously? He just left like that?

Can someone explain to me why these two aren't doing their wall-reflection plan properly and instead came here?

They simply asked me if I had any plans after the wall was broken.

That doesn't make sense. They're Wallfacers, not ETO members. Why would they ask about this?

After thinking for a long time without coming up with a solution, Lin Feng felt a headache coming on.

Rubbing his temples, Lin Feng muttered to himself.

"...This is so troublesome. I really need to come up with a plan to deal with these people who are always looking for trouble."

After leaving the hotel, Radiaz and Hines rode in the same car.

The car was unusually silent until halfway through the journey, when Hines suddenly asked a question.

What do you think?

“He is a qualified Wallfacer, and there is absolutely no trace of concealment,” said Radiaz, his gaze shifting to the car window, his tone unusually certain. “Taylor’s choice was correct.”

……

In the Three-Body game world, ETO is holding a meeting.

The meeting was about Lin Feng's encounter with the two Wallfacers.

The ETO takes this meeting very seriously. As one would normally understand it, a meeting between such important figures is bound to involve matters that are not trivial.

The things that Wallfacers discuss are at the very least major international events.

ETO thought that perhaps this time they would have a chance to learn some clues about Maple Taylor's Wallfacer Project.

As expected, the two Wallfacers discussed the Wallfacer project, but Feng Taylor remained completely silent, revealing not a single detail.

This gave ETO the urge to curse Feng Taylor's ancestors.

"The two Wallfacers approached Feng Taylor, but Feng Taylor remained tight-lipped and still didn't reveal any useful information."

"That's why I already said, don't be so nervous. Feng Taylor's plan hasn't even started yet; he's waiting for the right moment."

Compared to the furious King Zhou, Mozi appeared quite relaxed and at ease.

Just when everyone in ETO thought Mozi was right, a woman dressed in a kimono with a samurai sword hanging at her waist appeared before them.

Upon meeting, without saying a word, the samurai sword cleaved the ETO meeting table in two.

The blade of the katana was pointed directly at everyone present. The ETO members were still sitting in their chairs, completely bewildered as to why their master would do such a thing to them.

[Maple Taylor's plan has begun.]

This time, your ETO failed in its duties.

Chapter 23 He was so terrifying

Zhizi explained why she did this, and only then did the people of ETO understand why their master would express his dissatisfaction in this way.

"Impossible! This is impossible! He didn't announce any plans at all!" Mozi stood up and shouted.

King Zhou immediately stood up and agreed, “Yes, my lord, we have been monitoring all of Feng Taylor’s orders, and he has not issued any orders regarding the plan at all.”

The ETO members were incredulous, after all, they had been monitoring Feng Taylor all along, and they knew his every move. It was impossible for Feng Taylor to direct his subordinates to carry out his plans without their notice.

No, he issued orders regarding his plan, but you all think those orders aren't related to the plan.

Tomoko's light and melodious voice sounded so jarring to the ears of the ETO members that they felt as if they were falling into an abyss.

King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang, gritted his teeth and respectfully asked the wise man, "How exactly did Feng Taylor do it! Lord, even if it means our deaths, please let us die knowing the truth!"

At the request of King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang, Zhi Zi revealed Lin Feng's failed "Wall-Facing Project" to the ETO members for viewing.

"This...this, the Wallfacer Feng Taylor's plan is actually this?!" Qin Shi Huang's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

The ETO knew that Lin Feng had asked the CIA for V-equipment, but they didn't think much of it. After all, it was just V-equipment; what use could it be other than playing games?

No one expected Lin Feng to enter the Three-Body game. There are plenty of games with V-Armor, and the Three-Body game is even banned by the official authorities, so everyone just thought that Lin Feng was just playing games to relax.
