Chapter Seventy-Five: Chaos, Quiet
When Sakura's challenge book was delivered to Murphy, the discerning media finally dug up the news of Scotland Yard's death. Of course, in fact, those military police and agents also understand that it is impossible to block the news, after all, such a building as the Tower of London has collapsed, and anyone can find out that something is wrong. As a result, several major media outlets, such as The Times and The London Post, overwhelmingly preemptively issued special issues to track and report the causes, processes, and results of the incident on the spot.
Then, the Sun, a tabloid known to almost everyone in Britain, took the lead in grabbing the scoop and breaking the news that all the treasures of the British royal family had been taken away. The British Isles were in an uproar, but this time the public was furious, and social groups and those with status and power issued statements demanding that the political axe be pursued to the end, that the bold criminals be arrested, and that the caretakers of the Tower of London be held accountable.
Immediately afterwards, a butler of Buckingham Palace, whose mouth was not very secure, secretly revealed to the reporter of the "Mirror" the news that the previous queen had fainted because of the disappearance of Zangzhen. The news circled the globe several times at the speed of light, and in a short time, the world's large and small media began to pay attention to this incident.
Human beings are always a little bit gossipy, the British royal family, especially the best object of gossip news, now that there is such a thing, do those media still take the opportunity to get ratings?
The British political axe was anxious to deal with the suspicions from all directions, and the senior members of the cabinet were almost paralyzed on the ground like leper dogs, and they had not yet dealt with a bunch of unsightly things, and now that there was such a thing that could affect the reputation of the British state, could they not panic? The Prime Minister gave the Minister of Defense and several important ministers a death order:" Within a week, find out who did it, bring him to me, and, of course, the jewels, must be found for me without any mistakes. ”
This order was unceremoniously pressed on Scotland Yard, the army, and the intelligence services by those important ministers. All the uniformed people in the British Islands were overwhelmed by the above, and they wandered around with red eyes like mad dogs, and as soon as they saw something unpleasant, they immediately rushed up to interrogate them, and they didn't care about any face and decency. The secret service left all the unimportant matters in hand and went to the Tower of London wholeheartedly, so the surveillance of Sakura and them was relaxed, and there was no one even on duty.
There was a lot of noise in the city of London, and those wanted criminals, drug dealers, and pornographic pimps fled one by one, but the law enforcement departments had already laid a wide net, and all suspicious people were invited into the cage
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yi Chen also began to vigorously rectify his subordinates, and he summoned a group of leaders such as Charley to meet in the conference room in the basement to discuss things.
Yi Chen knocked on the table gently, looked at the six subordinate leaders who already looked like successful people in society, and said with satisfaction: "Well, this is decent, you have to pay attention to your image and your identity." You're not the thugs now, so keep your demeanor...... By the way, the wind has been too tight lately, so be careful not to make mistakes. The people below, tell them to keep to themselves, there is really nothing to do, and they can all go into their own nightclubs to do chores. Anyway, until this turmoil has passed, you are not allowed to let the little brothers wander the streets, understand?"
The cunning-looking boy sitting next to Charly, nicknamed 'Wild Wolf' Hasson, asked Yi Chen a little strangely: "Boss, greet the people below, we understand this, but it's strange, we haven't received any news, who played such a ticket? It's not easy to blow up the Tower of London...... It is even more incredible to have to get rid of all the treasures under the Tower of London. ”
With a hint of greed, Cali said, "Boss, why don't we dig them out and ...... How about eating them?"
Yi Chen rolled his eyes: "You want to eat them......? Do you have any rumors? Do you know who did it? Do you know that they are still in London? Do you know who they are behind the scenes? To dare to do such a big vote in the city of London is to piss the head of the King of England once, and it is still a question of whether we can eat or not. ”
Yi Chen knocked on the table heavily: "Also, since yesterday, the streets have been full of police agents walking back and forth, how can we inquire about the news? Be careful to see that you are not pleasing to the eye, and I will directly arrest you, if I go through your old files and charge you for a crime, I don't bother to get you out." Gentlemen, it's our duty to keep to ourselves, you see?"
The six leaders groaned weakly, Yi Chen said this, and they didn't dare to move indiscriminately if they had the guts.
Yi Chen stood up, glanced at them sideways and said, "I have something to go out for, you should pay attention...... The pistols and daggers of the people below are all kept in your own stronghold for the time being, so as not to find out what is wrong with you if the political axe declares a state of emergency. ”
The six leaders should have said in unison, and after Yi Chen took the Phil brothers up, he also took his subordinates Yuguan out of another passage-
M went straight to Murphy with a ticket of agents. She had great powers, and it took less than five minutes to find out who the people at the scene were and where they were sent after they were injured. M is going to take some information out of Murphy's mouth, so as to save his subordinates from running around. However, the backstage of this nursing home is the British royal family, and M also asked for instructions for a day before he was allowed to bring his subordinates in to ask for a confession.
Murphy had already destroyed the challenge book, and after putting a cast on his injured leg, he was half-lying on a hospital bed with his eyes closed.
M stood at the head of his bed, looking at him with unblinking eyes: "Mr. Murphy, I am the director of MI6, M, please ......"
Murphy suddenly opened his eyes and said as if in passing, "Aha, it's a great honor, ma'am." The night before, three of my friends and I were admiring the moon at the Tower of London, but suddenly the mountains shook, and the Tower of London collapsed, and we were a little injured, so we were sent here, and we didn't know anything else. ”
Murphy told the truth, he was concentrating on the use of holy power, slowly promoting the healing of his injuries, where is the time to nag with M? Besides, he has already calculated with Arthur, and is ready to invite friends to help fight, and when the time comes, he will completely kill Sakura, and naturally he will not cooperate with M at this moment. What does the glory of the British royal family have to do with Murphy? It is true that Arthur is his friend, and it is not true that Britain is an ally of the Holy See, but this does not mean that Murphy truly loves Britain.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Murphy, if you don't cooperate with me, then I will take some bad measures because you are seriously suspicious, maybe you don't want to see this, right?"
The two deacons of the Inquisition, who were standing next to him, quickly flashed down in front of M, and said coldly: "Madam, you have a high position, but you are here to threaten a seriously injured victim, is this where your justice lies? We will complain to you because of your words...... We swear. ”
Murphy laughed, "No, you need to be respectful of a lady, especially such a 'respectable' 'old' lady...... Ah, I'm suddenly tired, I'm sorry, ma'am. Murphy closed his eyes and snored.
M was so angry that she trembled slightly, and was about to have a seizure, when a weak voice sounded behind her: "Madam, I'm sorry. ”
M turned around and saw a haggard Arthur leaning weakly on a nurse's body, panting and saying, "I'm sorry, but we really didn't find anything, the Tower of London suddenly collapsed, and we were smashed, so we were sent here." Mr. Murphy is a good friend of mine, he is an important figure of the Holy See and a distinguished guest of the royal family, and you better not disturb his peace...... As for me, I would be happy to cooperate with the investigation of the enforcers of English law, but I know nothing. ”
M stared at Arthur, sighed helplessly, strode to the door, and said loudly, "Duke Arthur, I'm sorry to disturb you." ”
As he passed by Arthur, M suddenly stopped and leaned into Arthur's ear and said, "Your Excellency, you are so unwise, perhaps because of you, let that sinner go unpunished, and let the face of our British Empire be trampled by the people of the whole world...... Understood?"
Arthur turned his head slightly and whispered, "You don't have the ability to investigate this matter." Madam, believe me, I won't let that bastard go, I've already fought him once, he's not my match...... When I recover, I'll give him a little bit of power. ”
M was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously: "We are not capable?"
Arthur simply said, "Yes, that's something you can't understand, and you don't have the ability to investigate it." Don't bother my friends again, they're just trying to resist the guys' injuries, they're friends, not enemies. ”
M continued to walk towards the door, and her words came clearly into Arthur's ears: "Maybe you think we can't understand, but because of work, I know a lot of things you think we don't know...... Of course, I respect your opinion, Lord Duke. M deliberately highlighted the title of Arthur.
Arthur smiled bitterly, and after waiting for M to leave, he said helplessly to Murphy: "Behold, you are so unkind, you have offended one of the faithful guardians of our British Empire. ”
Murphy opened his eyes sharply: "These things, they shouldn't be involved, and they can't afford to participate." Arthur nodded slightly, and went back to his room with the help of the nurse.
Phil drove towards Hunner's manor, and Yi Chen sat in the back seat, holding a glass of wine in his hand and ordered: "We will give up the territory to the south and east of London, except for the nightclub of Cali and them, no one else is allowed to fool around over there." When the 'Ryumen' and the 'Yamaguchi-gumi' take over those sites, we can breathe a sigh of relief...... I can't let that old guy from Velen beat me all day long, I'm going to get him more targets. ”
Gore cursed in a low voice, "Boss, this guy is so greedy that he actually asked us for two million...... Are we vaults? Damn old thing. ”
Yi Chen sneered: "He took so much money from us, he has to do so many things for us." We are not saints in the Bible, and our efforts must be rewarded. Tell the old guy Veron that his subordinates are not allowed to wander around my yard in the future, and the money will be taken as a bonus for him to ensure the safety of our yard...... We have to keep our guests safe so they keep coming back, don't we?"
Gore nodded yes.
Phil had already driven the car to the gate of Huner Manor, and his head poked out of the window to take a look. The bodyguards at the door nodded, glanced at it casually, opened the iron door, and Phil drove directly to the steps of the central building.
In Hughner's study, Lazer, Fick, and Ferrara were discussing something with him, and Ferrara giggled and said, "I've already wooed several of their ...... Oh easy, you've come just in time. ”
Yi Chen walked to Hughner's desk, put a check in front of Huener, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, this is the thirty-five million promised last time, and I brought it here...... That guy is very generous, really. ”
Huner laughed and looked at Lazer, the three of them nodded, Huner carefully picked up the check and examined it, stood up, opened the oil painting on the wall behind him, opened a secret door, and then opened the door of the safe hidden inside, and put the check in a small pure gold box.
Yi Chen sat down on the sofa closest to the desk, picked up a cigar from the box on the table in front of him, lit it, and said, "Mr. Hughner, why haven't you started yet? It's been some time later than the last time planned. ”
Hughner didn't return to his seat, but sat down next to Yi Chen affectionately, and said in a rare kind tone: "Yi, we have to be cautious, we reconvened a meeting last time, and we felt that we had to be careful, otherwise they would find something bad, you understand?"
Yi Chen nodded. Hughner smiled and said, "You see, now that the opportunity has come, their situation is in chaos, and now is the best time for us." We could have started, but we lacked one. ”
Yi Chen looked at Hughone, frowned and asked, "Since everything is ready, why is there a lack of people?"
"Some of the companies that support our political views have given us a number of secret funds, yes, a considerable amount of funds, for us to carry out activities...... Of course, I don't hide it from you, we have nothing to hide from you, and we promised them a lot of policy benefits...... This fund, we are going to contact those neutral or their camp legislators in the next three to five days, when we throw out those materials. ”
Yi Chen grinned: "Buy them?"
Huner laughed, laughed, and said, "Yes, you are a man of understanding, and if there are too many voices in the council against us, we will not be able to act. Therefore, we must take advantage of the fact that our information has caught them off guard, and when they are panicking, we must win over more people, so that we can make a more confident transition from a temporary cabinet to a formal cabinet. ”
Yi Chen's thumb pointed at himself: "Do you mean that you want me to be the person who buys this?"
Hughner laughed a little awkwardly: "This, you see, if we are dispatched, it will be too eye-catching, and we must try to avoid suspicion." As for you, your strength is known throughout the city of London, and if you come out, you will be the best candidate. ”
Yi Chen pursed his lips and said, "Aha, if they bite me back, I will go to Switzerland to spend the rest of my life." ”
Hunner glanced at Yi Chen, and said fiercely: "If, if they are not interested, then you can use your willing means to deal with them, isn't it......? I'm old and I don't want to miss this opportunity. I promise that I will give you what you want, and everything I can achieve?...... We are friends, and I will definitely protect the interests of our own people. ”
Yi Chen pondered for a long time, and hundreds of thoughts were spinning in his head, he definitely didn't want to attract too much attention, but it seemed that Hugh Na's plan had already been decided, and he couldn't change anything. Rather than giving others a chance to take their place, why not take a little risk yourself...... Yi Chen nodded: "So, how much is the fund?"
Huner laughed, "Not much, not much, twenty million dollars." ”
Yi Chen raised his right index finger and shook it gently: "Oh? Forget it, I won't believe it." ”
Huner smiled awkwardly: "This, you understand......" He quickly glanced back at Laze and them, Huner said: "You have your own stable source of funds, easy, but we are different, we must have a little ...... Huh. ”
Yi Chen smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can guarantee that no matter what I do in the future, no one will interfere with me, then I can add a little money within 20 million US dollars...... Deal?"
Huner was silent for about five seconds, then solemnly said, "Deal." If I become Prime Minister, no one will dare to interfere with any of your actions. Of course, your actions must be secret and not allowed to be caught by the media. ”
Yi Chen laughed and laughed comfortably: "Of course, of course, how could I be caught by them?" The two laughed, just like two kind and kind old men.
Yi Chen asked Hughner, "When are you going to throw out the materials?"
Lazer narrowed his eyes and grinned, Fick walked over, sat on the sofa opposite with his fat body, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, tomorrow." ”
Yi Chen snapped his fingers: "So, please send someone to bring me tomorrow's newspaper, okay?"
Fick stood up, bowed hard, and replied with a smile like a dutiful butler, "As you wish, boss......"
The five people in the study suddenly laughed wildly.
The city of London was still in chaos, but Yi Chen was like a big spider, steadily parked in his cobweb, his long legs controlling every corner of the cobweb, and he couldn't hide any movement. But secretly, Yi Chen's filaments were secretly released, and slowly wrapped around their favorite prey, tightly entangled them. Everything is going on quietly, and M, who should have discovered and stopped these events, is being urged by his boss to be busy tracking down the unwarranted 'international thief group'......
