Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

After saying that, without waiting for Mike's reaction, he walked straight out from the alley corner.

He rushed up the stairs.

Mike was startled and quickly followed.

They led Mike to a door.

"I'll open the door!"

Mike felt his chance to shine had come, so he immediately took out a whole set of lock-picking tools, ready to make a big splash.

As it turned out, Aaron didn't give way at all, he just glanced at the door. Luckily, Nie smiled.

Without the slightest hesitation, he kicked out with his foot.

"boom!"

The closed wooden door was kicked open!

"I definitely prefer this kind of wooden door. Security doors are the most disgusting design of the 21st century!"

With a muttered sound, Aaron shook his leg and nodded toward Mike, who was staring at the pocket behind him.

You're still too green for that!

"Uh……"

Awkwardly putting away his lock-picking tools, Mike followed Aaron inside.

"Search!"

Aaron shouted and immediately began the search.

Mike also started rummaging around.

"There's a safe here!"

In a corner of the room, Mike discovered a safe hidden in the wall.

When Aaron walked over.

Mike had already opened the safe using his superb lock-picking skills.

He proudly brandished the lock-picking tools in his hand and said excitedly:

"It's an old model safe from 03, and it only took me fifteen seconds!"

"Well done, Mike."

Aaron chuckled.

The two of them opened the safe together.

Inside the box was only a stack of cash worth about five thousand US dollars, and nothing else.

"Aaron, is the information from the informant wrong? There is no data or information stolen by scientists from the Eastern superpower here."

I saw an empty safe.

Mike was somewhat disappointed.

So, they failed this mission?

"hehe."

Seeing Mike's expression, Aaron smiled gently.

This kid is still too young.

Aaron patted Mike on the shoulder, exhaled a puff of smoke, reached into the inside pocket of his trench coat, and said earnestly:

"Mike, guess why the mission from above was to bring back data, instead of searching?"

"why?"

Mike, who was not yet familiar with CIA operations, was somewhat confused.

Yeah, they didn't even search. How would they know there would be documents here?

"Hehe, because..."

Aaron sneered and slowly took his hand out of the inside pocket of his trench coat.

He pulled a document out of his pocket.

Then, under Mike's shocked gaze, it was slowly placed into the empty safe.

After finishing, Aaron turned around, looked quietly at Mike, and continued:

"Because there must be some information here, no matter how it came about!"

“Mike, we lie, we cheat, we steal. We even have a special course to teach us these things. This is the glory of our America’s continuous exploration and progress.”

"You still need to study hard."

Aaron patted Mike, who was standing there in a daze, and walked straight outside.

"Our mission is complete. Now it's up to the French police."

"Mike, we should go!"

Mike stood there, frozen in place.

Holy crap, you can do that?

The other party didn't steal the documents; they just threw them into someone's safe?

What kind of operation is this?

Good grief, I've completely failed to learn this.

Chapter 45 Slander, blatant slander!

The morning of November 12.

A news report from the French government quickly topped the trending charts of the world's media!

Western media outlets even dedicated an entire page to reporting on this matter.

Chinese scientist Jiang Xu has been apprehended by French police for stealing construction data from the TIE (The International Fusion Experiment) reactor.

The news was immediately and widely reprinted by media outlets around the world.

In particular, some unscrupulous self-media outlets in China have used all sorts of exaggerated headlines in an attempt to attract attention.

News of all kinds immediately filled the entire Chinese internet.

Shocking! This scientist actually did this!

We've completely lost face; Jiang Xu is ruining our future!

So what if we landed on the moon? Energy is the future, and we've already been kicked out of that future!

……

The exaggerated headlines are truly astounding.

Especially some news stories that are clearly biased, they are really going against the grain and being published.

The ITER project is the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor.

It is an international cooperation project jointly established by more than a dozen countries, including the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, France, China, India, and Japan.

The goal is to collaborate on building a large-scale scientific experimental device that leads to controlled nuclear fusion.

It can be said that the ITER device was designed from the very beginning with the ultimate goal of achieving controlled nuclear fusion!

For now, this is humanity's only glimmer of hope.

The hope of the whole village.

A colossal artifact created by the combined efforts of humankind.

As soon as the news broke, some people in China who were already suffering greatly from the Mangkhut protests immediately began to mock and ridicule them:

"What's so great about landing on the moon? Haha, basic scientific research and energy research are the most important."

"Your country can just wait to be proposed for the ITER project, hahaha, an uncivilized land."

"Hahaha, that's right, that's right. The Americans achieved this sixty years ago, and they still have the nerve to show it off. Aren't they ashamed?"

"They say it'll be completed by 2025? Hahaha, your country is going to fall behind in this energy revolution again. Just wait to get beaten up!"

"..."

While everyone is still waiting for official confirmation from the Chinese government.

These clowns couldn't wait to jump out.

There's really no other way.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.

The great Eastern country still has too many people.

Just imagine, if one out of ten thousand people is an idiot, how many would that be out of 1.4 billion?
