New Ming Empire mixed in America

Chapter 279 You are all good people who are righteous and brave

"Thank you for your help, but I still want to know why you are there?"

After the street was taken over by the Royal Army, the six members of the Lightning Regiment were also taken to a special interrogation room.

At this time, almost three days had passed since the assassination.

"My companions and I live nearby and we are here to do business."

The leading young man did not panic at all when facing the interrogation. He smiled and continued: "You know we have been drifting on the sea for a long time, so we want to sneak out while the boss is discussing business...relax..."

Having said this, he also made a gesture that every man knows how to straighten his back to the officer who was interrogating him.

After he finished speaking, he gave a wry smile at the right time and said: "It's okay now. Our boss must have known about us sneaking out to have fun. I guess we can't keep this job..."

Sighing, he picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip.

Regarding these warriors who helped Palmerston, the officer did not use the method of interrogating prisoners, but instead asked them as if they were chatting.

But this does not mean that they have relaxed their vigilance. Investigations about these people have begun secretly.

At this moment, the secretary knocked on the door of this room that looked more like an office than an interrogation room.

After walking in, he handed the officer a document and whispered a few words.

After hearing the secretary's words, the serious expression on the officer's face slowly relaxed.

After he read all the contents on the document, he had a smile on his face.

"Thank you very much for your help, otherwise there will be a major incident in Great Britain."

"But at the same time, I'm sorry to tell you something. Your boss has just announced that you have been fired and refused to pay your commission this time..."

After finishing speaking, the officer looked at the young man pretending to be sympathetic.

But soon there was a smile on his face again, and he said to the frustrated young man from the Lightning Group:

"But we in Great Britain are very generous to our friends. Her Majesty the Queen has just agreed to provide some financial compensation to you and your companions."

At this point, genuine envy appeared on the officer's face.

After such a long investigation, the backgrounds of these young men and the reasons for their appearance here are all clear.

As for the room that exploded, they also investigated it clearly.

The real estate agent who was shot to death had rented apartments to some outsiders with legal currency.

After investigation, the assassins killed in this attack were from abroad.

As for the guy who went to the bank to exchange pounds under his name, he has disappeared, and I don’t know where he went.

However, after investigation, no connection was found between the tenant and these brave people. Therefore, the Bureau of Investigation believed that the tenant was working with the assassins.

Moreover, they also learned the story of the assassination from the mouths of those who were alive. According to these people, they had been planning it for a long time.

The person in charge of this mission was the real estate agent. Moreover, the other party planned to use poor Chinese to pour dirty water on the heads of the Orientals during the battle.

If these warriors who showed up in time had not thwarted the other party's conspiracy this time, the direction of the investigation might have been the Orientals far away on the west coast.

But now this possibility can be basically ruled out. After all, those Easterners cannot be stupid enough to hire these foreign gangsters to carry out assassinations.

Those few survivors also confessed that before the attack, they had no idea of ​​the specific circumstances of the assassination.

Everything was arranged by the real estate agent who was shot dead. Even their hasty follow-up attack was an impromptu decision made by the real estate agent.

An analysis by the intelligence agency concluded that while planning the first wave of assassinations, the real estate agent also made secondary preparations.

That is the team composed of these gangsters to supplement the first wave of assassinations.

The police chiefs also mentioned that the first wave of assassins were forced to give up the assassination by them and Palmerston's followers at gunpoint.

Then they were suddenly attacked by these tough bandits who appeared out of nowhere.

And the purpose of these people is also very simple, that is to shoot at Palmerston's carriage crazily.

If the entourage hadn't dragged the consul out of the carriage in advance, Dai Ying might have started discussing the selection of the consul by now.

The final conclusion was that the assassins were fully prepared, including the first wave of assassinations and the second wave of supplementary attacks.

However, both waves of assassinations were blocked by the heroic police chiefs and their entourage. Finally, after these brave caravan guards appeared, the police chiefs cooperated with these warriors to kill all the assassins.

It's a pity that the assassin who attacked in the first wave, the guy who rented the house, is still at large, otherwise this matter would have been even more perfect.

If the real estate agent had not died at this time, he would definitely jump out and refute, because he only planned one attack, and that was the subsequent wave of attacks.

And their purpose is only to create irreconcilable conflicts between Dongfangren and Daiying, forcing Daiying to launch a full-scale attack on the Xinming Empire.

"Each of you will receive a special medal and a bonus of one thousand pounds each. You will also receive the title of Honorary Citizen of London!"

After the officer finished speaking, he extended his hand to the young man who seemed to be stunned by the great happiness and said congratulations:

"Congratulations on your transformation from a sailor guard to a rich man. You are also an honorary citizen of London and have received a special medal. It is really enviable..."

The young man seemed to have just reacted at this moment. He quickly held the officer's hand and asked excitedly:

"Are you kidding? One thousand pounds, I can use them to buy a piece of land in the suburbs, and also marry a beautiful wife... This is really like a dream..."

At the same time, Palmerston in the hospital looked at the information in his hand, and his hands trembled with anger.

"Damn the Peruvians! Haven't they thought about the consequences of offending Great Britain?"

This information was much more specific than the one the officers received. It clearly stated that those who later shouted in broken Chinese and attacked were killers from Peru.

They launched two attacks in total. If Goddess Luck hadn't taken a second look at him, he might have been lying in the coffin by now.

But after a few curses, Palmerston had no way to punish those Peruvians.

After all, when the time comes, people can just say that this was done by some people on their own initiative and they will be able to get away with it.

Now Peru is on the verge of national subjugation, and the Chileans have occupied most of their territory.

The coalition forces of Peru and Bolivia were also defeated by the Chileans. It can be said that those guys have nothing to lose at this time.

He could only knock out his teeth and swallow this matter, otherwise they would lose the opportunity to intervene in the war between Chile and Peru.

By that time, Daiying is likely to lose its interests in South America.

The Chileans will not send unlimited amounts of their domestic silver to the UK like Peru did.

Palmerston took a deep breath and had no choice but to grit his teeth.

But he could take revenge on the Peruvian ambassador who orchestrated the operation.

"Let Peru send a new ambassador. I will send the current ambassador to prison. I will make him pay the price!"
