The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

Lin Feng changed the subject, turning his gaze to Sugiyama Keiko, and suggested, "I think instead of asking me, you should ask the Wallbreakers of Hines. Tomoko might be able to help you."

Seeing that the human leaders were looking at her, Sugiyama Keiko shook her head and replied helplessly.

"It is a pity that the Lord has abandoned me because of my failure."

If she could use the Sophon to find the escaped Steel Seal Clan hiding in the human world, she would have done so long ago.

"abandon?"

As he pondered those words, Lin Feng's eyes lit up. "So, Ms. Sugiyama Keiko, you no longer need to pretend to be an anti-human element and continue to help humanity gather intelligence?"

The previously whispering meeting room fell silent again, just as Sugiyama Keiko had announced her identity as a wallbreaker to everyone.

Keiko Sugiyama, Hines, Luo Ji, the rotating chairman, and representatives from all sides were all stunned, their blank faces filled with astonishment.

What the hell?

Is Keiko Sugiyama both a wallbreaker and a human spy?

Especially the rotating chairperson and representatives from all parties felt their brains were not enough. These things had never been recorded in history books, and their worldviews were refreshed several times.

Lin Feng ignored all of that; he was thinking about how to protect this last remaining member of ETO's inner circle.

If Lin Feng had to name his biggest regret, it would be that he couldn't protect those people in ETO who had devoted themselves to all of humanity. These people had abandoned their reputations, their egos, and everything they valued, all in order to use the resources of the Trisolarans to help all of humanity find a way to survive.

How magnificent!

Now, facing the last ETO member, who was also his last ally, he felt there was no need to hide it any longer.

It's worth noting that, according to the original story, Keiko Sugiyama would commit suicide in the meditation room after breaking through Hines' wall.

If he continues to do nothing, this last hero who has infiltrated ETO will also leave this world.

"Since that's the case, there's no need for me to pretend to be confused any longer."

As he spoke, Lin Feng stood up and bowed slightly to Sugiyama Keiko with utmost sincerity to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Keiko Sugiyama, no, Aristotle the Wallbreaker. On behalf of all those I can represent, I sincerely thank you and all the other spies who have been lurking within ETO in the past."

"Thank you for disguising yourselves as anti-human elements to infiltrate ETO, gain the trust of the Trisolaran world, and continuously provide humanity with Trisolaran intelligence for the sake of all humanity."

Everyone felt as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in their brains.

Not only Keiko Sugiyama, but there are many other human spies in ETO?!

Is such a group lurking within ETO under the surveillance of Zhizi?

If anyone else had said such a thing, the attendees would have taken it as a joke. But the person who said it was a historical figure who had lived through two centuries, witnessed two centuries, and driven two centuries of progress. This added credibility to the statement.

Moreover, some people recalled historical records they had seen, indicating that two centuries ago, many human spies were indeed planted within ETO. ETO was used as a source of intelligence for the Trisolarans, which is why the human leadership turned a blind eye until they created the Killer virus, causing the death of a head of state, which prompted various countries to resolve to encircle and destroy them.

Keiko Sugiyama had been silent since the beginning, her expression shifting between light and dark. Of course, she hadn't betrayed ETO or the Trisolarans, but she couldn't figure out what Lin Feng was up to.

"Honey, is this true?"

Keiko Sugiyama looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hines, who had just been devastated and crestfallen because of her identity as a wallbreaker, staring at her with a vague expression.

Keiko Sugiyama was Hines's emotional support. He could accept anyone breaking down his barriers, but he could not accept the fact that the one breaking down his barriers was his own wife.

Just like the man who wanted to have his mind stamped to believe that his wife hadn't cheated on him, Hines is the same.

Why was Hines so angry at that time? Because he saw himself in it; people always hate themselves more than they hate others.

"Of course it's fake, please don't look at me like that."

Keiko Sugiyama gave a cold reply, ignoring the dejected Hines, and looked at Lin Feng.

“Mr. Feng Taylor, you don’t think that by fabricating a lie for me, I will submit to humanity out of gratitude, do you? Let me tell you clearly, that’s impossible.”

Keiko Sugiyama's words made it very clear: I am a traitor to humanity!

Lin Feng shook his head. "I once heard a CIA agent say that some spies, in order to successfully infiltrate an organization, would try every means to convince themselves that they were really a member of that organization. In Chinese terms, it's like saying, 'To deceive the enemy, you must first deceive yourself.' Now I've witnessed it firsthand."

“Ms. Keiko Sugiyama, you don’t need to explain. I understand everything. Humanity’s current achievements are largely due to your contributions and those of the other spies who were once hidden within ETO.”

He deserves great credit.

Is this a sarcastic reference to their repeated failures to break through his defenses?

Lin Feng's praise sounded like an insult to Sugiyama Keiko, who clenched her fists in anger, her body trembling slightly.

They were only a few steps apart. Lin Feng noticed Sugiyama Keiko's unusual behavior, but he assumed that she was trying to suppress her excited emotions.

In a sense, it wasn't wrong; I was indeed very excited, so excited that I wanted to beat him up.

The rotating chairman finally came to his senses. The series of shocking facts left even this seasoned man stunned for a long time.

"Mr. Taylor, if I may interrupt, what evidence do you have to prove that Ms. Keiko Sugiyama is a traitor to ETO?" the rotating chairman asked.

Lin Feng corrected, "Mr. Chairman, I hope you and others will pay attention to your wording. Ms. Sugiyama Keiko is a human spy who infiltrated ETO. She has never been loyal to the Trisolarans or ETO. Is it appropriate for you to call her a 'traitor to ETO'? In order to help all of humanity find a way out, she did not hesitate to abandon herself and forced herself to betray her race, lover, and family. Such courage and selflessness deserve to be called a 'hero'. Is that too much to ask?"

The rotating chairperson and representatives from all sides wore strange expressions. Just a few minutes ago, Sugiyama Keiko was the heinous ETO wallbreaker, but now she had transformed into a hero of humanity.

The rotating chairman said, "Alright, I retract my previous statement. Mr. Taylor, what evidence do you have to prove that Ms. Sugiyama Keiko is a hero, and not a real inhumane?"

From the conversation just now, the human leadership noticed that Sugiyama Keiko was not a spy planted by Lin Feng within ETO, and Sugiyama Keiko had also explicitly denied being a spy.

Lin Feng glanced at the rotating chairman, then at the representatives from all sides, his face full of astonishment and absurdity as if to say, "You really didn't notice? You're supposed to be the elite of humanity, how can you be so naive and adorable?"

"Isn't this obvious? Until just now, Sugiyama Keiko has been giving us very important information about the Three-Body Problem. Isn't that enough to prove it?"

Chapter 217 The existence of the Wallbreaker is meaningless

Seeing that the rotating chairperson and the representatives from all sides still looked confused, Lin Feng slapped his forehead.

"Your one-dimensional thinking makes me think you're as naive and adorable as the Trisolarans. I ask you, why did Ms. Keiko Sugiyama only announce the Wallfacer Project to break through Hines now, when everything was already a fait accompli?"

Although Lin Feng's indirect insults had displeased the human leadership, they held back for the time being in order to find out what was really going on.

The representative of the alliance said, "She just said that she only saw through Hines's plan at the last moment of hibernation, and she didn't have time to break through Hines's defenses."

“Of course, that’s one possibility, but there’s another possibility: she saw through Hines’ plan a long time ago, but just pretended not to know until now when she started to break through Hines’ barrier,” Lin Feng said.

This is something that no one else can verify or refute, because only Sugiyama Keiko herself knows what she is planning in the face of this situation.

"Really? Darling?"

Hines looked at Sugiyama Keiko beside him with a mixture of surprise and delight.

However, Sugiyama Keiko ignored her husband's gaze. Her face was gloomy, and she questioned Lin Feng with a cold smile.

"Mr. Feng Taylor, do you intend to continue spouting nonsense like this? What information did I provide humanity with regarding the Trisolarans? Did I break through the wall of the plan you and Hines were carrying out in cooperation, to reveal the existence of the Steel Seal Clan to the human world?"

The whispers in the meeting room quieted down.

Yes, what important information about the Three-Body Problem did Sugiyama Keiko just reveal to them?

"Now that things have come to this, there's no need for you to keep hiding it, Ms. Sugiyama Keiko."

Lin Feng gave Sugiyama Keiko a confident smile, "I'm not like these people who have ears but no brains. I can hear the information you hid in your words just now."

"The Lord cares a lot about Hines' plan, doesn't he? The Trisolarans don't want humanity to leave the solar system."

A simple sentence struck Sugiyama Keiko's mind like a thunderbolt.

Inside the venue, the expressions of the people present varied. Sugiyama Keiko was shocked, the human leaders were surprised, Hines was moved, and Lin Feng was confident. Only Luo Ji was completely bewildered from beginning to end. As an observer, he had no idea what was going on.

Lin Feng said, "Sometimes it's very easy to see through someone's lies. Don't look at what they say, look at what they do. Ms. Sugiyama Keiko, thank you for your years of forbearance for human civilization. You and your other companions have made indelible contributions to the victory of human civilization."

“…I…I…you…you…”

Keiko Sugiyama panicked. How could she not panic? Lin Feng had actually figured out the mission that the Three-Body Problem had entrusted to the entire Three-Body Organization in one sentence.

"You don't need to get excited, Ms. Sugiyama Keiko. ETO no longer exists, and you can resume a normal life from now on."

Seeing Sugiyama Keiko's reckless words, Lin Feng assumed that she was admitting her identity as a 'human spy'.

Lin Feng began to speak eloquently, “Actually, I noticed from the beginning that the existence of the Wallbreakers is meaningless, meaningless to the Trisolarans, and meaningless to the Wall-breakers. It’s really strange that no one has noticed this point until now.”

"Is the existence of the Wallbreaker meaningless?"

Luo Ji, who had just come to his senses, asked in surprise.

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Of course, what's the point of revealing the Wallfacers' plan? If the plan is really suitable, even if it means losing all morality, humans will do it no matter what. For example, the transformation of humans into beasts—I've said so many times not to do it, but some people still do it secretly."

"And even if it's inappropriate, Wallfacers will not be punished by any laws of the human world because of the Wallfacer Act, no matter how outrageous their plans are."

Lin Feng's words caused everyone in the room to fall into deep thought.

Indeed, if the Wallfacer Project could truly enhance and benefit human civilization, governments around the world would secretly pursue it, even at the cost of moral decay.

The Wallfacers themselves are protected by the Wallfacer Act and enjoy legal immunity; they have no need to worry about being tried for the heinous plans they devise.

The Wall Breakers' wall-breaking efforts seem to be really useless.

Lin Feng continued, “'The Lord doesn’t care,' who benefits from this statement? The Trisolarans? No, it benefits humanity. Humanity knows too little about the Trisolarans, and in terms of intelligence, it is naturally at an irreversible and absolute disadvantage. The Sophon’s surveillance is everywhere.”

“Revealing one’s Wallfacer’s Wallfacer’s plan to the Wallfacer in person can indeed demoralize humanity and undermine the Wallfacer’s confidence. But in addition to these two drawbacks, there is another, more significant advantage that is almost universally overlooked: it serves as a reminder.”

"If human civilization does not want to be destroyed, it must rapidly climb the technology tree before the Trisolaran fleet arrives in the solar system and do everything possible to shorten the technological gap with the Trisolaran fleet."

"In other words, if humanity takes the wrong path in technological development and wastes more time and resources, it will actually be more in line with the interests of the Trisolarans. After all, the Trisolaran fleet's technology cannot be updated during its voyage. The smaller the pace of human technological iteration, the more advantageous it is for the Trisolaran fleet. Alternatively, it could be to guide humanity to equip itself with high-powered weapons that are precisely what the Trisolaran fleet can counter."

When Lin Feng mentioned this, Sugiyama Keiko's expression was blank, as if a stellar nuclear bomb had exploded in her mind.

Yes, why didn't they deliberately lead humanity down the wrong research path in the first place?

Humanity wastes precious time and resources due to wrong research directions, which indirectly slows down the pace of human technological progress!

Otherwise, we should ask the Lord for guidance to instruct humanity to develop weapons that can be countered by the Trisolaran fleet, so that they will lose everything in the battle!

Damn it, how come not a single person in the organization thought of this method back then!

Lin Feng continued, “Imagine humanity painstakingly researches and develops a powerful weapon, only to discover at the outset that it is precisely countered by the Trisolaran fleet. What a disaster that would be! Even without ETO, these two problems in scientific research are unavoidable.”

"The existence of the Wall Breakers has effectively prevented these situations from happening. Every time they break through the wall, every time they say that the Lord doesn't care, they are helping humanity to correct its direction."

The fleet's joint representative asked, "Even if it is helpful to humanity, we cannot be 100% certain that the other party is a human spy. Couldn't it be a coincidence?"

Lin Feng scoffed, "How many coincidences are there in the world? After the Wallbreakers of ETO saw through the Wallfacers' plan, was it necessary for them to reveal it? Isn't the Wallbreakers' duty simply to help the Trisolarans see through the Wallfacers' hidden plans? Why would they jump out and tell everyone that they saw through the plan, that the Trisolarans don't care, and let humanity choose other research directions?"

"Their actions to break through the barrier are not only not in line with the interests of the Trisolarans, but are moving in a direction completely opposite to their interests, constantly providing humanity with analyzable intelligence and telling humanity where the feasible way out is. If this is not human espionage, then what is human espionage?" Lin Feng asked the crowd in return.

The group understood and turned their attention to Sugiyama Keiko, who had been silent since the beginning.

"You mean to say that the Wallbreakers are actually human spies infiltrating ETO?" the rotating chairman asked Lin Feng in surprise.
