#789 - Chapter 789 Migration? Not that simple! Cindy returns, global leak! - Rebirth: All Patents, Cutting off the European and American Tech Tree

Time flies.

Unknowingly, five days passed.

During these five days, Chen Hao stayed in a research lab, hardly stepping out except to eat, drink, relieve himself, and sleep.

The room was connected to the scientific research center's computer room, which housed the most advanced computers.

At this moment!

Chen Hao stared intently at the screen.

But!

The most important thing right now was neither the southern slope of the Himalayas nor bringing back the blue-blooded woman.

But rather…

Preventing the eruption of the Yellowstone volcano!

And using the imminent volcanic eruption as a trigger for Albert's decision to relocate the entire country, as an opportunity to achieve his goals.

Suddenly!

Just as he was staring at the screen, occasionally typing in data and formulas, the intercom for external communication rang.

"Director Chen, General Wang has an urgent matter to discuss with you."

"Let him come in directly."

"Okay!"

The underground area of the scientific research center was top secret.

However…

There was no need to be guarded against General Wang.

Firstly, because of trust.

Secondly, General Wang didn't understand technology at all, so even if he saw it, he wouldn't understand it, right?

Not long after.

General Wang hurried in: "Commander! The preliminary arrangements have been completed. Next, she should officially appear. Are you… ready on your end?"

"Not yet, I'll hurry."

"Should we postpone her side?"

"No need."

Chen Hao shook his head: "Proceed according to the plan—don't worry, my side won't be delayed!"

…

North America was in chaos.

A week ago.

The White House released a message stating that the risk of the Yellowstone volcano erupting was very high. After joint discussions by multiple geologists, they believed that relocating the entire country to Alaska was the safest and most secure option—all for the sake of the people.

The message had been released for over a week, but implementation was not easy.

Relocating the entire country!

North America was not a small country.

Not to mention the population of three hundred million.

There were also countless industries, infrastructure, military equipment, etc.

Moving all of these to Alaska…

Firstly, the scale of the relocation was too large to estimate.

Secondly.

You say move, and then move?

Alaska was located in the far north.

Among the states in North America, its area was certainly the largest, but its population was the smallest.

A bitterly cold place!

Relocating there meant that everything had to start from scratch.

North America was already experiencing economic downturn, and countless people were marching and demonstrating. After all, having long occupied the position of overlord, the people had become accustomed to the good life and could not endure hardship.

One can imagine…

How many people could accept moving everyone to the far north and starting to build a new country from scratch?

Most North American people lacked a sense of crisis.

They only cared about enjoying the moment.

The Yellowstone volcano might erupt?

Has it erupted?

Not yet!

As long as it doesn't erupt now, I'll continue living my life.

Just for the so-called possibility of an eruption in the future, you want me to suffer in the far north?

Are you out of your mind?

Especially the lower class, they only care about how they live today, and don't even care if they have food to eat tomorrow, how can they care about a volcano?

The key is.

It's just a possible eruption, not a definite one!

All in all.

Albert's proposal for relocation was ignored by many people, and it was even more impossible for them to cooperate with the relocation.

Even…

Not to mention the hundreds of millions of people who mostly disagreed.

Even many senators in the upper and lower houses did not agree.

How many presidents don't care about being cursed?

He didn't want a volcanic eruption to destroy North America during his term.

The relocation was already giving him a headache.

Now.

A new problem has emerged!

Several days ago.

Cindy's identity as a spy was exposed, and she escaped back to North America alive from China.

She secretly contacted him, claiming that since her identity had been exposed and she could no longer continue to be a spy, she requested to be officially 'confirmed'.

What is confirmation?

North America has a dozen or so large and small intelligence organizations.

Previously, they belonged to different departments, but later a new institution was established to oversee all intelligence organizations.

At that time, Lawrence served as the head.

Cindy brought back a large amount of advanced technology and was promoted to the second-in-command of the department.

Since she couldn't infiltrate China and had returned to North America, she should have taken office.

But…

It wasn't that simple?

Albert never thought of letting her serve as the second-in-command of the department. It was just a promise he made to stabilize her—he even planned to release the virus and let her die in China.

Who would have thought she would be exposed?

And be able to escape back to North America alive?

Two days ago.

Cindy contacted him and demanded that her identity be restored. Albert was shocked and…

Invited her to meet and discuss.

Cindy demanded that the White House officially announce her identity through official channels and recognize her position publicly.

Once officially announced and her identity recognized, it would not be so easy to move her.

How could Albert agree?

There was no way!

He could only insist that they had to meet and discuss, and refused to announce it directly.

At the same time, he was also worried.

Cindy not only brought back a large amount of technology, but also mastered many core secrets.

Secretly, Albert sent out CIA and FBI elites, searching all over Washington but failing to find her. From this, it could be seen… that she was wary, and may even have guessed that he would not let her take office.

In this case…

Would she cause any trouble?

"Mr. President!"

The new Secretary of State ran in: "China demands that we hand over Cindy!"

Albert was stunned.

How to hand her over?

Firstly, even he hadn't found Cindy.

Secondly.

Cindy was a North American intelligence agent. If North America handed her over to China…

The president would become the target of public criticism!

Handing over a meritorious official to the enemy country?

Are you a traitor, Mr. President?

But…

China was too powerful now. If they used means to coerce, what would North America do?

Hand her over?

Or not?

"Something happened!"

Suddenly!

Before the problem with China was resolved, the CIA Director rushed in: "That damn woman… I don't know through what means, she's spreading a large number of messages on the internet and major media outlets!"

In the past two days, the president ordered him to arrest Cindy, but she was like a ghost, unable to find any trace of her.

Who would have thought she would pull this trick?

"Spreading… what messages?" Albert realized something was wrong.

"It's online."

CIA Director Smith's face was livid: "It's not just the North American internet, the entire global internet is going crazy!"

Albert quickly opened a webpage.

Typed in.

Searched.

The next moment, there were news from portal websites, as well as posts published by individuals, filling the entire network.

When he saw the content, he only felt a darkness in front of his eyes, and almost fainted on the spot.

'North American Hero Hunted Down by the White House'!

'DIA Intelligence Agent Cindy Tells of Being Betrayed'!
