In the original plot, the arrogance that von Neumann showed after breaking the wall with Taylor was actually the most intuitive expression of a person who had lived in the lower class for many years suddenly having the right to speak.
The more a person lacks something, the more he will show off it.
In this world, after Lin Xuan broke the wall with Taylor, von Neumann knew that he had lost his value to the Lord. In this case, even if he continued to live, it would be of no use.
Returning to the conversation, the expression on Mozi's face was already quite interesting.
He only felt that his self-esteem had suffered a blow that he had never experienced before. He stared blankly at the image in front of him, unable to utter a word.
Lin Xuan's guess was completely correct.
But the key is, how did he manage to break through Diaz's wall so quickly?
Obviously, Rey Diaz hasn't even created a stellar hydrogen bomb yet, how could it be...
But soon, Mozi thought of something.
When he was investigating Diaz's information, he accidentally saw an action taken by Diaz before he became a Wallfacer.
He visited a scholar named Cozmo three times.
Since Sophon had just arrived on Earth at that time and the surveillance of Rey Diaz was not very strong, no one knew what they talked about.
But Cosmo's research results are almost identical to Diaz's plan.
They once observed a star called 275E1, whose surrounding planets fell into its main star. Then, a spiral upward flow of matter appeared in the pierced part of the star, like a loose spring.
This is where Diaz got the inspiration to try to use Mercury to hit the Sun in order to achieve the same result as the star 275E1.
"Damn it!"
Mozi gnashed his teeth in anger.
He relied too much on Sophon's intelligence network to the point of neglecting his own intelligence gathering.
Just like his wallfacer Diaz, Mo Zi also made the same mistake, causing Lin Xuan to guess Diaz's true intentions before him.
Mozi now finally understood the complicated feelings that von Neumann had felt at that time.
It's like taking an exam. You're still secretly happy that you got the first multiple-choice question right, but the top student next to you has already finished and handed in his paper.
He even proved that your first question was wrong.
This kind of blow is extremely huge!
All the ETO members present were silent for a long time, and Planck was the first to break the silence.
"I think...if it doesn't work out, let's just break up. I don't think the Lord needs us that much."
Chapter 42 If only Captain Shi were here
Zhang Xiang was silent.
On the plane flying back to China, Zhang Xiang leaned his whole body against the cabin door, staring blankly at the sky.
"Captain Shi, I want to resign."
Zhang Xiang muttered to himself.
He was really too tired. As a wall-facing man, he could stir up a bloody storm wherever he went, making everyone uneasy.
He came to attend the Wallfacer hearing today with Lin Xuan. Since he was not qualified to attend the meeting, he could only be responsible for guarding the periphery.
In order to prevent Lin Xuan from running around and causing trouble for him as soon as the meeting was over, Zhang Xiang didn't even have lunch. He just stood guard at the door of the conference hall, intending to take Lin Xuan back to China as soon as he came out, and not let him stay there for even a minute longer.
Seeing this, Kante couldn't help but tease Zhang Xiang.
"You are too nervous. The PDC asked you to protect Lin Xuan, not to monitor him."
Zhang Xiang shook his head.
"No, Kant, you don't understand. You don't know how scary Lin Xuan is. Almost every time he goes abroad, he always causes me a lot of trouble. I've had enough. I feel like I've developed a fear of going abroad."
Afterwards, Zhang Xiang told Kant what Lin Xuan had done in the past two years since he became the Wallfacer.
Kant was stunned when he heard this, and he began to feel a little sympathy for Zhang Xiang.
"My goodness, Lin Xuan is really not an ordinary person. He and Luo Ji are just like two extremes among the wall-facers. One is crazy and makes trouble, while the other doesn't care about anything. It seems that both of them are quite troublesome."
"Well, I don't ask for anything else. I just hope I can return safely this time and not cause me so much trouble.
The leader of PDC had a talk with me before and asked me to keep an eye on Lin Xuan as much as possible next time, and to stop him if he did anything weird again.
Isn't this nonsense? How can I stop him if he wants to cause trouble? "
Zhang Xiang let out a long sigh of relief.
"But fortunately, Lin Xuan has been quite honest this time and hasn't caused any trouble so far. Maybe you're right, Kant, I was indeed too nervous."
Soon, the Wallfacer hearing came to an end.
Zhang Xiang looked at the crowd pouring out of the venue and decided to wait here with Kant for Lin Xuan to come out.
"It's shocking. A Wallfacer could do such a thing. Rey Diaz is really a crazy guy. I think he should be shot dead on the spot."
"It's really crazy. It seems that the plan Lin Xuan mentioned when she broke through Taylor's wall is also true. These wall-facers are all crazy!"
The discussion between the two soon reached the ears of Zhang Xiang and Kant.
Somehow, Zhang Xiang suddenly had a very bad premonition, as if the thing he was worried about was about to happen again.
Before he could go forward to ask what happened in the venue, he saw several soldiers escorting Diaz, who was tied up, out of the venue.
Behind him was Lin Xuan, who looked relaxed.
"It's over!"
Although Zhang Xiang didn't know what had happened inside, when he saw Diaz's embarrassed look, he knew that it must be related to Lin Xuan in some way.
"Shock value from Zhang Xiang +15."
……
"So, you have succeeded in breaking the wall of another Wallfacer?"
"Yes."
Zhang Xiang is no longer able to complain.
Lin Xuan, you are a wall-facer, not an ETO. Why do you always do so many weird things every day?
After escorting Diaz onto the plane, Lin Xuan injected him with a shot of sleeping pills to prevent him from resisting, which was enough for him to sleep until the plane landed.
"What are you going to do with this guy?"
Zhang Xiang pointed at Diaz lying on the ground. He now didn't know how to explain to everyone when he returned.
Regarding the fact that Lin Xuan only went out once and brought back a wall-facing person for everyone.
"First find a place to lock him up. When he wakes up, I have something to discuss with him."
During the time when Lin Xuan returned to China, ETO took new actions.
They published three documents on the Internet.
The first piece of information was the Wallfacer Taylor's plan and his schedule at the time.
This document explains in detail how Taylor's idea of attacking the Space Force was formed and implemented.
He explained and supplemented all the points that Lin Xuan failed to mention, and even fearing that everyone would not understand, he thoughtfully drew a task structure diagram for everyone. He also translated this information into the languages of more than 70 countries and distributed it on the Internet.
The second piece of information was the details of the plan of the Wallfacer Rey Diaz. Like Taylor, his entire plan was also exposed, and even some of the dishonorable methods he used when he became president were made public.
For a time, people's condemnation of the Wallfacers almost reached a climax, and a large number of people took to the streets to protest, demanding an end to the Wallfacer project and the collective execution of the Wallfacers for crimes against humanity.
Naturally, the PDC would not agree to such an unreasonable request, but now the public opinion on the Internet has been controlled by ETO. People have lost their basic trust in those who face the wall. A large number of ETO's water armies have spread rumors on the Internet, causing panic in countries around the world.
They went from worshipping the Wallfacer as a god to now criticizing him, but in fact, only about two years had passed.
However, compared to the third piece of information, the first two pieces of information are nothing.
The third piece of information was about the Wallfacer Lin Xuan, but unlike Taylor and Diaz, ETO did not publish any negative information about Lin Xuan, but instead issued a letter of appointment.
Appoint Lin Xuan as the third leader of ETO!
This moment stunned the whole world.
To be honest, they have suspected that Lin Xuan is a member of ETO for a long time, but because the other party may be carrying out the Wallfacer Project, there has been controversy online as to whether Lin Xuan is a member of ETO. Both sides stick to their own opinions and the argument is fierce.
Netizens who believe that Lin Xuan is a member of ETO came to this conclusion based on the two wall-breaking tasks that Lin Xuan had previously completed.
If the first time he broke the wall could be considered as part of his plan, then the fact that he broke the wall twice in a row confirmed the Wallfacer's plan. Lin Xuan's identity was confirmed.
And opponents have their reasons.
Even if you take a step back, what Lin Xuan is doing now, isn't it promoting the technological progress of mankind?
In comparison, Taylor and Diaz's plans were quite anti-human. Isn't it understandable that Lin Xuan helped them break through the barrier?
Using these two things to prove that Lin Xuan is an ETO, isn't it just like a dog entering the toilet and making things up just by opening its mouth?
As a result, when the ETO appointment letter came out, people all over the world were collectively stunned.
"6!"
"I thought Lin Xuan was just a member of ETO, but now he has become the third leader?"
"PDC, please close down the internet cafes quickly. If you don't, Lin Xuan will become the leader of the Trisolarans in a few days."
"Isn't that great? We don't need to be on guard against the Trisolarans anymore."
No matter what, these three documents from ETO have pushed the three wall-facers to the forefront.
As for the remaining two, one is in hibernation, and people still don’t know what the other one is doing until now, so no one has mentioned him.
……
Inside the Red Bank Third Base, Zhang Xiang was speechless as he looked at the screen full of netizens insulting PDC and the Wallfacing Project.
"These guys are really weird. Some people even said they want to disband the PDC. If the PDC is disbanded, will humans use their heads to fight the Trisolarans?"
Wang Miao standing aside seemed indifferent.
"Oh, for things on the Internet, just look at the pictures for fun, don't take them too seriously. Some of them are ETO's trolls, they may not even be real people, why bother with them?"
Zhang Xiang and Lin Xuan have been back at Hong'an Base for two days.
As soon as the two came back, Lin Xuan built a special confinement cell for Diaz and ordered people to lock him up in it. Apart from providing him with three meals a day, he was not allowed to do anything else. He even built a high-voltage electric fence around the confinement cell to prevent anyone from trying to sneak in.
Just as Wade thought, Lin Xuan did not execute Rey Diaz directly. He kept this president who had lost his identity as a Wallfacer for other uses.
"No, if we let the public opinion on the Internet continue to ferment, the Wall-Facing Project will likely encounter great resistance."
"After all, the funds used by the Wallfacer Project have to be deducted from taxpayers. If people no longer have confidence in the Wallfacer Project, the project will be forced to stop due to lack of funds."
Zhang Xiang soon realized ETO's sinister intentions.
They are not trying to destroy the Wallfacers' plans, but to undermine ordinary people's trust in them.
Public opinion warfare has always been the most lethal tactic since ancient times.
Because once public opinion completely turns to one side, it is very likely that the entire political system will collapse from the bottom up.
The power of the masses is great, but their goals are blind.
Once they are guided by the wrong voices, the entire group will follow the crowd and go in a path completely opposite to their goal.
When the Russian bear was forced to disintegrate, the Eagle Sauce used propaganda warfare to severely damage the confidence of its people, causing the people at the bottom to no longer trust the decisions of the upper echelons, thus gradually disintegrating the entire country.
Now, ETO will use the same method to deal with the Wallfacers.
"How to do it?"
Zhang Xiang felt that although this kind of thing was not something he should worry about, he got very angry every time he saw people criticizing those on the Internet.
Because he is an insider, he knows how much effort these wallfacers have put in for humanity. Even if Taylor and Diaz's plan is very crazy, it is also their effort to ensure the survival of humanity.
Even Luo Ji was not always busy having fun. He had tried to find a way to deal with the Trisolarans, but he had no clue.
“Our voices are so small.”
Zhang Xiang finally gave up thinking about this problem.
Because he found that no matter what he did, he couldn't get people to stop blaming the wall-facer.
Even if the PDC denies these things, it will only backfire and lead to a rapid backlash of public opinion online.
