"What's going on?" After Tang Cheng looked through the interrogation records compiled by Zhang Jianghe, he looked at Zhang Jianghe with a puzzled expression. A group of Indians of unknown origin boarded a British transport ship and came to Yangon, claiming to protect the Burmese royal family. This incident was weird from beginning to end. Myanmar does have a royal family, but since the British came here, the Myanmar royal family has become history, not to mention that the descendants of the Myanmar royal family are actually protected by a group of Indians.

Zhang Jianghe also smiled bitterly when he heard this. He, who personally interrogated those Indians, is still confused until now. The person sitting on the side drinking tea chuckled and said, "Don't worry, something doesn't look right! Let's not talk about those Indians and the so-called royal child. Let's just talk about the Indians taking the British flight. Something is wrong with the transport ship! Don’t forget, India is also a British colony, and the white-skinned British will not treat Indians so favorably."

Not to mention Tangcheng, even Zhang Jianghe already knew what the bureau chief reminded him, but according to Owen's account, these Indians boarded the ship from Egypt. According to Zhang Jianghe, Tang Cheng read the contents of Irving's report and then tapped his finger on the table. "If there is no problem with Irving, then the problem is the people who arranged for those Indians to board the ship in Egypt! If Irving lied, the person who can make him actively conceal the inside story should be someone Irving knows, or Irving knows the details of the other party people."

Tang Cheng's judgment reminded Zhang Jianghe, who was a fan of the authorities. He personally interrogated the Indians and knew that those Indians definitely did not lie. So the person who concealed something or lied should be Captain Owen whom he knew. Zhang Jianghe, who was furious, wanted to go to Owen immediately to ask for details, but was stopped by Tang Cheng. "Uncle, if there is a problem with the Owen you are talking about, even if you go to him and ask him face to face, there will be no results."

The director also nodded after hearing this, "If he has a problem, if you go to him now, it will only make the person with the problem more alert! But I do feel that the British captain you are talking about does not seem to know the inside story. People! Even if the British are arrogant, they will not be so stupid. There is something wrong with this at first sight!" The director's words reminded Tangcheng, and regardless of whether those Indians had problems, it seemed that they did not pose a problem to themselves. What a threat.

In order to find out the truth of the matter, Tang Cheng even used systematic skills on the surviving Indians. Unfortunately, just like the results of Zhang Jianghe's inquiry, only the dead Indians seemed to know the truth of the matter. Even the British captain named Owen only knew that these Indians were sent to his transport ship in Egypt by a bearded North African. The memory fragments Tang Cheng extracted from Owen's mind also showed that the bearded North African was holding the certificate of the British North African Regiment.

It was precisely because of this North African Legion ID that Owen chose to conceal it, because he had no idea whether the appearance of those Indians was related to the British government. In desperation and unable to find the answer, Tang Cheng could only send a telegram to Thomas in London. Tang Cheng tried to use Thomas to help him find the answer. Because of those Indians and the North African Legion's documents, Tang Cheng felt that this matter was inseparable from the British.

No one knew whether Tang Cheng's guess was correct, and Thomas frowned after receiving the telegram. After being separated from Tangcheng last time, Thomas returned to London. There were too many opportunities in the rebuilding Britain, and it was impossible for Thomas, who was born in the native country, to give up the interests of the British mainland. Because of the twins, Thomas did not plan to plot against Tang Cheng, and Thomas also saw that Tang Cheng was not a person who liked to rely on others. The Thomas family was only loyal to the royal family, so when he returned to London, he did not have much contact with other nobles.

However, the telegram sent by Tangcheng from Myanmar made Thomas full of doubts. According to his experience, this matter is definitely related to the British upper class. If not handled well, this matter may lead to A series of troubles. After all, Thomas was a veteran nobleman. He used his relationship with the royal family to quickly get some information from other channels, and through this information, he found clues. The truth of the matter is indeed what Thomas guessed, those Indians did board the ship from Egypt, but they are all authentic Indians.

The bearded man holding the ID of the North African Legion was not a member of the North African Legion, but a black market broker active in North Africa. Before the end of the war, this bearded man even made deals with the German army in the North African theater. Why would such a black market broker hold the credentials of the British North African Regiment? This is undoubtedly a big problem, and it also makes Thomas feel the seriousness of the matter. Thomas, who was as clueless as Tang Cheng, after thinking about it, could only report the matter to the royal family.

Britain's post-war reconstruction issues have caused headaches for the government and upper-class people. If it weren't for the emergence of Chinatown and its intention to make good friends, the British royal family might be in a similar state of mind now. Not to mention the United Oil Company, which has already produced oil, the cigarettes and beer produced in Myanmar have already won a lot of benefits for the British royal family. The last time Thomas went to South Africa, he also found three mines with considerable reserves, which also contained royal shares.

The current British royal family is basically closely connected with Tangcheng, so the royal family will never allow anyone in the UK to have bad intentions towards Tangcheng. According to the information provided by Thomas, the intelligence officers loyal to the royal family quickly found the truth of the matter. However, when the intelligence officers' investigation results were placed in front of Thomas, this veteran nobleman who had been wise for half his life did not believe his own eyes. Because the things recorded in this report were seriously inconsistent with Thomas' previous guesses.

The Indians who appeared in Yangon Port are indeed related to the British, and the British behind the scenes is also a member of the aristocracy. The girl who was taken to Yangon by the Indians was not a descendant of the Burmese royal family at all, but an ordinary Burmese girl, except that this Burmese girl was born in Egypt. This Burmese girl's family was controlled by the bearded man, so she had no choice but to follow those Indians to Burma. The actions of those Indians were actually just a test, a test specifically targeted at Tangcheng.

After reading this report, Thomas became even more confused because he did not find the answer to the whole matter from this report. According to Thomas's understanding of Tang Cheng, if Tang Cheng saw this thing, Tang Cheng's reaction might be greater than what he had guessed. The British royal family also had the same concerns, but they immediately summoned the British nobles who caused the incident. No one knows what the nobleman who was summoned into Buckingham Palace said to the royal family, but he indeed left Buckingham Palace alive and kicking.

Thomas, who paid close attention to the royal family's movements, burned the investigation report after learning the news, because he knew that the royal family must have reached some kind of agreement with the noble. Tang Cheng, who was still waiting for the answer in Myanmar, did not wait for the answer, but waited for Thomas who came on a military plane. After learning that Thomas came to Myanmar on a military plane, Tang Cheng knew that this matter would be difficult to handle and would probably involve more trouble.

Therefore, when Tang Cheng received a call to go to the military airport to meet Thomas, Tang Cheng decided to give up on continuing to investigate the matter because he did not want to cause more trouble. Sure enough, what Thomas brought was not good news, but a personal letter from the Queen of England. In the letter, the Queen did not write anything related to that matter, but gave Tangcheng the opportunity and qualification to order the latest model of British aircraft. In other words, the British royal family hopes to reach a reconciliation with Tangcheng.

"This means that the royal family knows who is plotting against me, they just don't want me to continue pursuing it?" Tang Cheng, who had read the letter, handed it to Thomas and motioned to Thomas, who had an inquisitive look in his eyes. , you can read this letter in front of yourself. Thomas, who had already reached an alliance of interests with Tang Cheng in private, took the letter and read it. Unfortunately, he did not see what he hoped to see from the letter.

"It seems that your ability to accept is far stronger than I thought!" Thomas chuckled as he returned the letter to Tang Cheng. "I admit that those Indians are indeed related to the British upper class! But things are not what you think! According to my understanding and investigation, the person who secretly planned this incident did not deliberately target you and Myanmar. He I just want to use this matter to get an opportunity to talk to the royal family.”

"An opportunity to talk to the royal family?" Tang Cheng was confused by Thomas' words. The person who caused the trouble was a British nobleman, and the British nobles were born to be royalists. How could they not have channels and opportunities to talk to the royal family? "If he wants to talk to the royal family, why does he have to plot against me? Strictly speaking, my relationship with the royal family must not be as good as you, the British aristocracy, right?"

Tang Cheng's words made Thomas scratch his head helplessly. After a few breaths, Thomas said helplessly. "This man's situation is different! You should know that this damn war not only caused heavy losses to Britain, but also to the aristocracy. Many British aristocrats have had their titles revoked because they were unable to pay various fees. . The person who plotted against you this time was the one who had his noble title revoked, but as you can see, he is very smart!"
