There are about more than 100,000 Chinese living in Tambul's Chinatown, and the street shops are mostly with oriental charm, from the antique archway at the entrance of the street to the teahouse restaurant with flying eaves and arches, all of which make people feel that this community and other areas of Tambul are two worlds.

In the afternoon, Zhang Sheng came to the "Four Seas Restaurant" leisurely, and he made an appointment to have afternoon tea with Shanshan here.

It is said that the owner of the restaurant, Mr. Mai, is the underground emperor of Tambur Chinatown, and several Chinese communities in Chinatown look up to him, and sometimes the police will ask him to help provide information when they have no clue about the cases that occur in Chinatown, and usually these cases will be satisfactorily resolved.

On the third floor of the restaurant, Shanshan has already occupied a seat, she came to the restaurant early to line up to get the number, when Zhang Sheng, she just waited for a vacant table, this table walked a few guests, the rest of the family of four, the parents are not confused, a pair of children, it seems to be middle school students, children grown up in foreign countries have a flamboyant personality, especially girls, listening to the Walkman, shaking their heads for a while honest.

"Business is good," Zhang Sheng smiled and sat down. Looking around, the guests are full.

"Brother, why don't we change places. Shanshan also felt that it was too noisy here, and Zhang Sheng definitely didn't like it.

"It's okay, it's here. Zhang Sheng actually doesn't mind sitting at the same table with others, and there is the joy of market life in the market.

"Ha, I'm not late. The girl's crisp voice came from behind her, but it was Tongtong who ran up, she seemed to be in a hurry, slightly panting, her delicate face was slightly red, and she was wearing a dark blue policewoman uniform, heroic and cool.

Zhang Sheng felt slightly strange and said, "Aren't you patrolling today?"

"I've changed shifts with people, you and your sister have afternoon tea, and I'll be the light bulb. Tongtong grinned, and saw that there were no refreshments in front of Zhang Sheng, so she sneered: "Sister, how do you take care of your husband, and I don't know how to take food." He said to Zhang Sheng again: "Brother-in-law, I'll help you get it, it's still the old rule, have some sweets, don't want shrimp dumplings xiaolongbao, right?"

Brother-in-law, Zhang Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, this Tongtong was weird all day long, and his naughty energy never changed.

Shanshan glanced at her sister, and went to the dining area to get snacks for the three of them, Tongtong followed, and the two seemed to be fighting again.

After a while, the sisters brought all kinds of refreshments, and asked the manager for Indian black tea, and sat next to Zhang Sheng on the left and right, but the two of them had not finished fighting, and it gradually evolved into a performance who cares more about Zhang Sheng.

Soon Zhang Sheng had a stack of fruit and egg tarts on the dinner plate in front of him, all of which were sandwiched by the little sisters, Zhang Sheng smiled helplessly: "Okay, okay, it's enough to eat." ”

The family sitting opposite was dumbfounded, and it could be seen that the two beautiful and sweet girls were twins, judging from the intimacy between the two of them and the man, the three were definitely not brothers and sisters, it seemed that they were a couple composed of a man and two women.

This is really eye-opening, I used to watch the news and saw what a man married two women, and what twins married a husband, but it was just a day of the night's lace news, but I didn't expect it to happen in front of my eyes.

Although it is not illegal for Tannik to be polygamous, usually polygamous families are either in remote rural areas or black hereditary patriarchs, and the Chinese community is relatively independent and does not have access to these groups.

"When we go home for the New Year next year, let's all go to Liaodong together, it is estimated that we will spend the New Year in Liaodong. Zhang Sheng drank tea and said leisurely.

Shanshan said "ah" and said, "Uncle has already gone to Liaodong, is the governor?" When she spoke, she and Tongtong glanced at each other, both of them looked a little restrained, the governor was naturally the boss's official in their eyes, and the so-called return to Liaodong for the New Year was a kind of pressure for them.

Zhang Sheng nodded slightly, yesterday my father had gone to Liaodong to take office.

As soon as the mobile phone rang, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he took it out to look at it, but it was the security software that he hadn't used for a long time to send an email, and this special mail receiving software had only been used when he contacted the domestic military intelligence department, and it had been idle for a long time since he left the military intelligence department.

Zhang Sheng clicked on the email, and the software automatically decoded the garbled code, but it was a message sent by General Shi.

General Shi said: Last night, a US reconnaissance plane suddenly flew over an island controlled by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) in the South China Sea, not only within 12 nautical miles of the island, but also flew over the island, and the military intelligence department is studying and judging the major change in US policy in the South China Sea and the risk of war that will come with it.

Zhang Sheng was slightly stunned when he saw this news, and a few days ago he saw the news that a US military patrol plane flew over an island in the South China Sea controlled by China, but at that time, the US military patrol plane did not enter the airspace within 12 nautical miles of the island, and although it was a provocation, it was nothing more.

However, this time is completely different, and this incident is completely different from the previous behavior of China and the United States in the South China Sea in which they "showed off their muscles"; the US military made a particularly dangerous move, and the reconnaissance plane directly entered the airspace of China's islands, which can be said to be a serious provocation and can even be said to be in the war war.

Although the sovereignty of these islands is disputed in the eyes of some countries in Southeast Asia, after all, under the control of the PLA, the actions of the US military can even be said to block the retreat of the Chinese government, if there is another such provocation, if the PLA does not carry out an effective counterattack, then what will follow is a multi-bone effect, and the claimants of the islands in the South China Sea have followed suit, and the Chinese Navy can only withdraw from the South China Sea in gloomy.

I don't know if the United States is really ready for an armed conflict with China, although, from the perspective of the United States, if it thinks that this war is inevitable, the sooner it breaks out, the better, and as time goes by, the balance of power will tilt in favor of China.

However, the U.S. society is certainly not prepared for a large-scale war, and from common sense, the U.S. adventurous action should be to judge that China will not engage in a direct armed conflict with it, and the U.S. policymakers hope to deal the greatest blow to the prestige of the PLA in the South China Sea.

Is it really that simple? If the China experts in Washington's think tank really understand China and the Chinese people, they will know that China has no way to retreat on the South China Sea issue. I believe that the hawks in the United States have begun to plan preparations for a full-scale war with China.

Peace is sometimes fragile.

Looking at this secret information, Zhang Sheng's heart was heavy, a little depressed, after all, he is a descendant of Yan and Huang, although the domestic situation is not satisfactory, but the reality in front of him is that another country with a more enlightened political system is oppressing the living space of its own nation, which is different from the political position of personal likes and dislikes, this is a contest involving the luck of the descendants of Yan and Huang for thousands of years, and it has nothing to do with who is in power in power.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Sheng looked down again, and General Shi said in the letter: "When your affairs in Tannick are over, I may ask you to do me a favor from a personal point of view, and I hope that you will agree to my request in the face of fellow Chinese, during this time, please consider it seriously." ”

From General Shi's tone, Zhang Sheng knew that this favor was not so helpful, and General Shi's attitude could almost be said to be humble.

Zhang Sheng pondered for a while but couldn't figure out why, after all, in the contest between two world's first-class powers, his personal strength was extremely small and insignificant, and it seemed that he could only wait for General Shi to uncover this mystery himself.
