#547 - Chapter 34 Dissolution of District 7
Liu Yuan smiled playfully, then calmly asked, "Oh, tell me, what do you need me to do to leave here?"
Tom didn't expect Liu Yuan to be so calm. A trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he slowly said, "We hope you can persuade Mr. Jazz to cooperate with official departments in some work..."
However, Liu Yuan interrupted him mercilessly, "That's impossible! Jazz is my friend, and I can't let him cooperate with you in research. You should know that doing so will anger the Autobots, and they are not to be trifled with. So, tell me something practical!"
Tom sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, I'm just conveying some of the higher-ups' intentions. Sign this document. As a reward for your previous achievement in killing the Decepticon leader, the government will reward you with $1 million. At the same time, we hope you can sign a confidentiality agreement, not to disclose anything about aliens to the public, and not to leave the country within a year."
Liu Yuan took the document, read it carefully, and answered without hesitation, "Okay, I agree. But, can you tell me what exactly happened?"
Tom looked at Liu Yuan and said slowly, "You have the right to know, and it's not really a secret. After research by Congress, the President has officially ordered the cancellation of Sector Seven, and all research projects have been transferred to the Department of Defense. Excellent personnel have been drawn from the Army, Navy, and Air Force to form a brand new NEST unit."
Liu Yuan nodded, then asked, "Then, what about Megatron and the other Decepticon corpses? How did you deal with them?"
Tom hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Two days ago, the military had already sunk the bodies into the deep sea, using the low temperature and high pressure there to dispose of them."
Liu Yuan thought for a moment and quickly understood the deeper meaning. The current President Bush must be very dissatisfied with Sector Seven. After all, Sector Seven failed to stop the Decepticon attack on the Hoover Dam, posing a serious threat to downstream residents; allowed the Decepticons to escape successfully, and dragged the battlefield into densely populated cities, causing a large number of civilian casualties; and finally, failed to keep the secret about aliens, causing public panic. Someone has to take the blame for such a big mess. And Sector Seven, as an organization specifically responsible for alien affairs, has naturally become the best scapegoat. Moreover, the Allspark has been destroyed and Megatron has been eliminated, so Sector Seven is no longer necessary, and it is only natural to disband it.
However, the battle in Aerospace City showed the Decepticons' amazing combat power, which shocked the US government. When they learned that the number of Decepticons was in the billions, they realized that they had to find a powerful ally to counter this threat. So, the Autobots who offered themselves became their best choice.
To achieve this goal, the US government first took action to form a joint force and invited the Autobots to join. After establishing a cooperative relationship, they hoped to gradually acquire the advanced technology of Cybertron.
To achieve this goal, the US government even abandoned the plan to dismantle the wreckage left by the Decepticons. They threw these wrecks into the deep sea, just to avoid causing resentment and concern among the Autobots. After all, with Earth's current technological level, it is almost impossible to salvage these wrecks.
At the same time, it was no longer appropriate for Jazz, as one of the Autobots, to continue to stay in the base for surveillance. Releasing him would not bring any substantial loss to the US government.
Liu Yuan clapped his hands and said, "Jazz! Stop making coffee, it's time for us to leave."
As soon as Jazz heard this, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Without saying a word, he threw the coffee pot in his hand into the trash can, muttering, "Hehehe, that's great, I can finally leave this damn place. It's so boring here." After saying that, he couldn't wait to walk towards the door.
Liu Yuan leisurely picked up a pen, signed his name on the agreement, and handed the agreement to Tom, "Okay, I've signed the agreement. Just transfer the money directly to my account. Jazz, let's go." Saying that, he took a black flight jacket from the hanger, put it on, and walked towards the door.
Arriving at the tarmac, Liu Yuan saw the silver sports car transformed by Jazz, and a feeling of excitement welled up in his heart. He strode to the car, opened the door and sat in the driver's seat, tightly gripping the steering wheel, his eyes flashing with anticipation, "Okay, Jazz, let me see how fast you can run!"
"Hahaha, my speed will definitely exceed your imagination! Yahoo!" Jazz laughed happily. With the laughter, the sports car's engine instantly burst into a deafening roar, as if a ferocious beast was awakening. As the hangar door slowly opened, Jazz turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed out like an arrow from a bow!
The Pontiac roared like a giant dragon, whistling through the base. Along the way, it kept overtaking other vehicles, attracting the attention and amazement of many soldiers. When Liu Yuan encountered familiar soldiers, he would smile and wave to them. When the car reached the gate, the guards had already received the notice to let them pass, and the huge steel gate slowly rose. Jazz did not hesitate at all, rushing out like a bolt of lightning and disappearing into the distance in an instant.
Afterward, Jazz sped across the Nevada desert at an astonishing speed, kicking up a trail of dust. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the car, casting a long shadow.
"Where are we going?" Jazz asked curiously.
"It's not far from Las Vegas here. The US government just gave me hush money, so we can go there and enjoy it," he replied with a smile.

Diego Garcia Archipelago.
This island is located in the central Indian Ocean, far from noisy cities and busy crowds. It is the largest and southernmost coral island in the Chagos Archipelago, and once belonged to the African country of Mauritius. According to the Treaty of Paris signed in 1814, Mauritius and its dependencies became British colonies.
The island is more than 1,900 kilometers from the southernmost tip of the South Asian subcontinent, and its geographical location is unique. It is located at the meeting point of several routes including the Cape of Good Hope, Singapore, the Red Sea, and Australia, so it has an extremely important strategic position.
During World War II, Diego Garcia Island was used as a British air base and an important naval anchorage. Today, it has become an important US air and naval base in the Indian Ocean and one of the US global military bases.
