The next morning, Luke came to his office, picked up his pen and began to write.

"Dear Eldest Princess,

The attack on Leo's consulate has been resolved, and all hostages have been rescued safely, including the consul and other Leo diplomatic envoys. All the lookouts involved in this incident were killed, and although there was a chance to capture a few alive, I still made this decision.

The relationship between the empire and the Republic of Leo is becoming more and more harmonious, but the political system is different, which determines that there will always be underlying contradictions between the two countries. The political demands of the new aristocracy within the empire had a lot to do with the political changes abroad.

Giving some support to the Rio Restoration can slow down the development of the Rio Republic, and it can also make the Rio Republic more cautious about its relationship with the Empire.

Especially in the struggle for sea power in the future. The Empire and the Republic of Rio are facing each other across the sea, and have been vying for dominance of this sea since ancient times. The fall of the Kingdom of Leo allowed the empire to seize the opportunity to take control of the ocean, creating a golden period of development for Angry Waves.

With the support of other countries, the Republic of Rio has grown very rapidly, and it must not be willing to continue to watch the Imperial fleet cruise on this busy international route. There will be a war between the two countries at sea, and I think it will be in the Empire's interest to fight this war sooner rather than later......"

Agatha asks Luke to write to her every day, and Luke tries to accommodate her request. On weekdays, I casually write about the weather in Angry Waves City when I have nothing to do, but today Luke writes a lot.

First of all, the process of rescuing the hostages of the Leo Consulate is briefly described, and then the strategy of the Republic of Leo is introduced.

The Golden Shield Empire and Leo are across the sea, and there have been many large-scale naval battles in history in order to compete for the dominance of this sea. As a new era dawned, the wealth generated by maritime trade skyrocketed, and both countries that shared this worldwide route benefited enormously.

It's just that the king of the Leo Kingdom did not have the courage of Augustine the Great of the Golden Shield Empire, and the unfair distribution of wealth led to a coup d'état, which eventually buried the Leo royal family.

Later, the Golden Shield Empire invaded the Republic of Leo, and although it did not include this kingdom in its territory, the protracted war made it impossible for Leo to defend his maritime interests. During this period, the city of Angry Waves enjoyed this international route exclusively, and became a unique world-class trading city in these seas.

The Rio Empire, which has gradually stabilized politically, has developed rapidly in various forms of funding from abroad. However, this international waterway is under the control of the Golden Shield Empire, which makes the Republic of Leo extremely greedy and uncomfortable.

In the end, for the sake of its own interests and at the instigation of other countries, the Republic of Leo took advantage of the internal instability of the Golden Shield Empire to launch an attack on the Golden Shield Empire's fleet.

Of course, this plot has not happened yet.

Luke, who had a strong foothold in the city of furious waves and had huge interests, naturally did not want his route to be threatened by outsiders.

This is the main reason why Luke spared Pan.

In his heart, he wanted to support Pan to cause trouble for the Leo Republic, but the way Pan chose made him unacceptable. It's okay to cooperate, but Pan must first put himself in the right position, and ask others to know how to lower his posture.

Luke told Agatha in detail about what he had been thinking about in the past two days, and if he could get the support of the Empire, many things would be done much more smoothly.

But even without the support of the Empire, Luke will follow his own steps.

Put the written letter in an envelope, seal it with clay, and then stamp it with your own alchemical seal.

Without waiting for Luke's call, Karina pushed the door open and walked in.

She was holding a food box, which looked familiar.

"Chief Inspector, someone from the Glittering Gold Hotel just came, let me hand this over to you."

Luke remembered that the food box was a sound.

This is...... Are you going to poison me?

"Open it and take a look."

Karina placed the food box on the table: "I checked it using detection magic, it's not a dangerous item. ”

Karina opened the food box and took out a thermos bucket from inside. Lifting the lid of the thermos bucket, the familiar fragrance once again permeated.

Luke could only smile helplessly, it seemed that what he said to Yin had no effect.

Karina sniffed the smell and couldn't help but admire: "It's so fragrant!" It's definitely delicious! ”

"Take it if you want to."

Karina hurriedly closed the lid: "This must be a chief inspector sent by the sound director, I can't drink it...... It's just that the sound director is not a shimmering gold person? ”

Karina's behavior puzzled Karina, who, as Luke's secretary, could sense Yin's different feelings for her chief.

"If she's asking for trouble, there's nothing I can do. Something left, this letter is addressed to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and it will be sent immediately. ”

"Yes, Chief Inspector."

When Karina was about to leave with the letter, Luke stopped her again: "Arrange a car, I am going to the Palace of the Sicissai." ”

"Yes, Chief Inspector."

……

At the Palace of the Sicisays, Viscount Iscollan accompanied Ambassador Leo over morning tea and enjoyed the opera, surrounded by guards.

"Ambassador Webster, I said that the affairs of the consulate will be handled by the chief inspector of Meteorite, you can definitely rest assured. None of us wanted this incident to affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the way in which this incident was handled was perfect. ”

Ambassador Webster is a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament, and the big mustache under his nose is very eye-catching. He knew that the relationship between the Golden Shield Empire and the Republic of Leo was very delicate, and he was not easy to do as an ambassador. The attack on Consul Leo will not only affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but may also cause political turmoil in the country.

This is also the reason why he hurried over from the imperial capital as soon as he knew about it. Only when we have first-hand information can we negotiate diplomatically.

Ambassador Webster straightened his beard and said to Viscount Iscollan with the bearing of a diplomat: "During this time in the imperial capital, what I heard the most was the miracle that Chief Inspector Meteorite had created in Fury Waves. Of course...... It's not something I can talk about because of my identity.

The incident at the Rio consulate allowed me to witness the miracle of the chief inspector of meteorite. Just as he sent you to save my life, the enemy's conspiracy is like transparent glass in front of him, and it is simply self-inflicted.

I also do not want to see this incident affect the normal diplomatic relations between the two countries. We share this ocean, and any turmoil in both countries will cause major international turmoil.

When will I see Chief Inspector Meteorite, and I would like to thank him in person. ”

"Chief Inspector He ......"

Viscount Iscoran was just trying to find an excuse for Luke when a servant walked in.

"My lord, the chief inspector is here."

Viscount Iscollan immediately changed his words: "Chief Inspector, he said yesterday that he would come to the Palace of Sicissai to see you, but I didn't expect him to come so early. ”

Ambassador Webster looked expectant: "It is a great honor for me to meet the amazing Chief Inspector of Meteorite. ”

Soon, Luke arrives with a servant leading.

"Ambassador Webster, it's a pleasure to meet you." Luke took off his hat and handed it to Karina, who was accompanying him, along with his cane, and then shook hands warmly with Ambassador Webster, like an old friend who had not seen him for many years: "Although I have not seen you before when I was in the imperial capital, I have heard Her Royal Highness the eldest princess praise you many times. You are a professional diplomat, and you are impeccable in your relations with the Empire and the Republic of Rio as a textbook in international relations.

Since you became Leo's ambassador to the Empire, relations between the two countries have been developing in a positive direction. I am confident that you will be able to handle the attack on the consulate and maintain the stability of relations between the two countries. ”

Luke's compliment made Ambassador Webster brush his beard with pleasure.

"The attack on Leo's consulate this time took place in the city of Angry Waves, and there is a place where the Golden Shield Empire is poorly protected. But I want to ...... As long as we maintain sincere mutual trust, we will definitely be able to handle things to a level that is acceptable to all of us.

Of course, this also raises a problem that has long interfered with the relationship between the two countries.

The Republic of Rio has a large number of wanted criminals who have been in the empire for a long time. I have reason to believe that the so-called 'Lookouts' are made up of these wanted criminals. I hope that the Empire will return all wanted criminals to our country as soon as possible, so that this will not happen again. ”

The appearance of the Windwatcher and the beginning of the Holy War for the Restoration of the Kingdom of Leo made it impossible for the Republic of Leo to remain silent on the exiled nobles. Although on the surface, it was the Imperial agents who wiped out this group of lookouts, but Ambassador Webster did not know what role the Golden Shield Empire played in it.

If the Windbearer has the covert support of the Golden Shield Empire, it will definitely bring big trouble to the Leo Republic.

Chief Inspector of Meteorite is in the limelight in the Golden Shield Empire, and he is also the confidant of the eldest princess Agatha. First of all, show the attitude of the Leo Republic to the Empire, so that the Empire can prepare for this diplomatic event.

Luke had long expected that the Republic of Leo would never stop easily in this incident. As long as it is insisted that the windseekers are from the original nobles of Leo who are in exile in the Golden Shield Empire, the empire is the one who is at fault.

If these exiled nobles can be eliminated, it will definitely be a merit that Ambassador Webster can go down in history.

This is also the difficulty in dealing with this diplomatic crisis.

"Sit down and ......talk," Luke invited Ambassador Webster to sit down, and then asked Viscount Iscoran, "How is the Consul?" ”

Iscoran replied: "My personal doctor examined the consul, and he had no external injuries, but he was too old to cause other diseases. Now that I have been treated, I have improved and I still need to rest more. ”

"Take care of the consul." Luke then said to Ambassador Webster: "Ambassador, although these kidnappers claim to be 'windwatchers,' it is not up to us to determine who they really are. Whether they are from the Empire, Leo, or elsewhere, all need to be investigated by the Imperial Intelligence Agency.

As for the wanted criminals you said......

This is a matter of historical legacy, and the normalization of relations between the Empire and the Republic of Rio has been a matter of recent years. And those people entered the territory of the empire through legal channels, and the empire could not risk credit losses and change its attitude towards them at will.

This matter cannot be rushed, and our two countries need to talk slowly. At this time, the most important thing is to put an end to the attack on the consulate, rescue and repair, and let the consulate resume operation as soon as possible. Delays these days have caused great losses to the economies of both of our countries. ”

Luke wanted to obscure the incident, but how could Ambassador Webster, who had finally seized the opportunity, give up.

"Chief Inspector, I've heard that all the kidnappers have been killed. Why don't you interrogate you alive? Are you hiding something! ”

Luke said with a smile, "For the Empire, this matter is very clear. A group of Leos came to Raging Waves and attacked Leo's consulate, and my job was to prevent anyone from following suit.

Kill them all, it is a deterrent to all potential threats.

Imperial agents are not obligated to think about the Republic of Leo. If they catch a live mouth, I think the newspaper reporters will be very interested in them. 'Windwatcher', 'Exiled Aristocrats', 'Leo Royal Family', 'Leo Republic', 'Rebel'......

These terms are sure to fill the newspapers and spread throughout the world with the merchants who travel to and from the city.

Would you like to see this happen? ”

Luke's rebuttal and ridicule made Ambassador Webster's face look very ugly.

"Chief Inspector Meteor, I feel that you have been very insincere in handling this incident. It's clear, but you want to obscure the responsibility of the Golden Shield Empire in this case.

Your quibbles will not change the facts, and international public opinion will give a correct assessment of this incident. It was the Golden Shield Empire's wanted criminals in the Republic of Leo that caused the attack on Leo's consulate in the City of Angry Waves. It is a normal state affair for our country to demand the extradition of all wanted criminals.

If the Golden Shield Empire can't give our country the answer it wants, it's very likely that our country will ...... for security reasons Abolish all diplomatic missions within the Golden Shield Empire! ”

Viscount Iscolan on the side did not expect a friendly meeting, and in a few words, he talked about this situation of breaking off diplomatic relations between the two countries.

According to the level of the chief detective of the meteorite, it should not be so stiff.

Viscount Iscoran, who didn't know Luke's purpose, said in a round game: "Neither of you should be so angry.

Ambassador Webster, Chief Inspector of Meteorite is an Imperial agent, not an Imperial Foreign Affairs official. The Chief Inspector thinks about things from his position, so don't be surprised. As for the handling of those people, I think it is better to leave it to His Majesty and the cabinet ministers to consider. ”

Ambassador Webster knew that Iscolan was right, that no matter how powerful a CIA chief inspector was, he could not decide on a change in national policy.

He eased his mood and said to Luke, "I was talking fiercely just now. You are my savior, and I have absolutely no intention of offending you.

Please tell Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess what I said, and when I return to the imperial capital, I will officially issue a note on this issue. ”

Luke still had a relaxed expression: "Yes, this matter is not for me to decide. But there's one thing, you happen to be in the City of Angry Waves, and I'd like to talk to you about it, Ambassador. ”

"Please!"

"On the international routes off the coast of Angry Waves, piracy is rampant. The Imperial Navy repeatedly encircled them, but they would soon regain their strength and regroup.

According to our CIA, these pirates are all financed by the Republic of Leo.

I wonder if the ambassador can give me an explanation! ”
