As an amazing scientist, Duke is very important to China in terms of technology and economy. It is a pity that the CIA will investigate him as a target.

But at the same time, Lex stayed by Duke for a long time, and an instinctive sense of protection has been developed for this young and genius scientist. Duke is not only a scientist who can benefit China, but also a great scientist who can benefit human society. Even if a lotus reactor nuclear power plant has no knowledge of technology, Lex stayed by Duke for a long time and knew that this is a major weapon to alleviate the energy crisis.

Since the advent of the Lotus Drop, it has truly brought nuclear energy civilians into the era of safe use.

In any aspect, Duke is an admirable scientist. As one of the people around Duke, Lex knows that Duke has not bred various lifestyle habits of luxury and luxury because of his success and fame. Instead, he maintains his true nature and still works hard in various R&D centers. For a young man under thirty years old, Lex knows how difficult it is, especially the temptations of this world.

"I can't do this!" Lex thought of this and stared at Matt word by word. "Although I don't know, nor do I want to figure out what you are going to do against Dr. Duke, I will do my best not to let you hurt this great human scientist."

"Matt, you'd better go back. You can't find anything useful to Dr. Duke. The real secrets are all in the computers of various R&D centers, and these places are not what our babies should go to." Lex finally advised Matt.

Looking at the stubborn Lex, Matt knew that he had returned to nothing today. He didn't know what Dr. Duke did to Lex, and suddenly his familiar brother became a stranger to him.

"Lex, this is not a personal grudge, but a national interest. In the face of national interests, Dr. Duke is not just your boss." Matt tried to further convince Lex with righteousness.

"From his national interests, I don't think that Dr. Duke has a dime relationship with national interests. You CIA is just interested in all kinds of unique civilian technologies developed by Dr. Duke. We cannot steal other people's technology while shouting to protect intellectual property rights," Lex said excitedly.

Although Lex also knows that Duke is doing some military research projects recently, such as recently as D** R&D Center, which is the R&D center of a military-industrial enterprise under Duke.

However, these are also uncommon for Lex. Which American corporate giant like Boeing and General Motors is not a military and civilian amphibious enterprise?

"But you won't get anything, Matt, believe me, almost all of Dr. Duke's technical secrets are in his mind. Even if you work hard to install a wiretap, it's useless, but you can only understand Dr. Duke's private life. I can't see what a scientist's private life has to do with national interests."

Obviously, Lex has a strong resistance to the CIA's action against Duke. Of course, Lex would not report Matt's identity as an agent because of this. He just needed Matt to walk away quietly.

"Lex, you have changed," Matt knew there was nothing to say, so he said sadly, "No longer the warrior who could sacrifice for America, but a deserter who was ruined by the comfortable life of reality."

"I haven't changed, but you have changed. It seems that the CIA has made you lose the concept of right and wrong," Lex answered flatly, "When I am a soldier, I will do my best to do my job as a soldier, even if I sacrifice it. But now I am a bodyguard, what I want to do is to protect my boss, not a traitor who attacks the boss. Matt, maybe you think it's easy to attack a Chinese, just like shooting at the enemy on the battlefield without any psychological burden.

But you don’t know that they are actually no different from us. They are both real people, but they live in different countries. I can’t find any reason to attack a scientist who brings stable work and life consumption to more than 100,000 people in the world.

I don't know what you want to do to Dr. Duke. I only know that this person is the work and life needs of hundreds of thousands of people. If he falls, many people may lose their jobs in the near future. Whether he is in Europe, America, or Asia, a huge corporate empire supported by Dr. Duke now will soon decline if he lacks the inventions and creations of Dr. Duke, and let these people who could have lived a good life lose all this."

Although Lex said this absolutely and extreme, as a close person who has been with Duke for so long, Lex has more or less learned about the actual situation and knew that Duke is an indispensable soul in Duke's huge corporate R&D team, so Duke is so busy every day.

So much so that Lex and his group of bodyguards had little use, because Duke rarely had time to go out for a trip or stroll around.

The two originally good friends parted in a bad mood. This unexpected result made Lex, who had always been optimistic, suffer from insomnia all night. He thought that Duke would become the target of the CIA and that his future might not be easy. As an American, Lex knew how powerful the CIA was. If he really wanted to target a certain object, he would not give up until he achieved his goal. Although Matt returned to him in vain, he would never give up. He would definitely think of other ways to deal with Duke.

It would be fine if it was just to steal some intelligence, but the CIA would never be satisfied with obtaining some fragments of Duke's private life. They must have wanted to do something to Duke. Thinking of Duke's current research and development work, Lex couldn't help but start guessing some of the worst possible.

Although Lex didn't know what the military project Duke was involved in, it must be an amazing weapon project to be able to alarm the CIA to send people across the ocean. Thinking of some things he could see outside the D** R&D base, based on his military literacy, Lex judged that D** should be developing some drone-like projects.

But at most, he sent Duke outside the base and had to return, so he didn't know what kind of drones these were. But from the perspective of size, these things were not big, maybe they were some tactical drones used for reconnaissance.

Although this discovery made Lex feel a little uneasy, after all, Lex couldn't say when China and the United States might be fighting each other. Although this kind of drone has no lethality, for veterans like Lex, this seemingly harmless thing actually has a huge impact on the entire battlefield.

However, Lex would not consider Duke the enemy he needs to deal with because of this possibility. On the contrary, Matt's appearance made Lex discover the CIA's actions against Duke, which made Lex toss and turn. He didn't know how to deal with it. He could not stop the CIA's behemoth alone, and it was difficult to remind Duke of this situation. In a dilemma, Lex kept sleepless all night, which led to the scene of his mental depression in the morning.
