"Ms. Nolan met with the chief secretary of the T\u0026T office, and the other party conveyed the news about the T\u0026T student. He said that he would pay attention to the SEC's investigation of the New York branch of DS Group and Standard Chartered-Merrill Lynch to ensure that it would not affect the These companies’ normal investment affairs in the United States..."
After hearing Dalula Riley's report, Barron rubbed his brows and said:
"I'm going to take a rest first. Wake me up when we get to America..."
"Okay, Your Highness the Duke."
Just as Barron was about to get up, there was a sudden turbulence in the plane and the alarm inside the plane sounded.
"What's going on?"
Just when Barron stabilized his body and grabbed Dalula who almost fell, he saw Nigel rushing over and said slightly panicked:
"The aircraft's anti-missile system has discovered that an anti-aircraft missile is locked on us and has launched it at us. Now it has released decoy bombs urgently..."
Before he finished speaking, Barron looked out the window and caught a streak of flames approaching the plane quickly...
Then, a burst of brilliant light flooded his eyes...
…
Suddenly sitting up, Barron found that he was in bed, not on a plane, and there was no explosion. Everything just happened was a dream.
Only then did he realize that the blanket on his body was wet with sweat.
Thinking of the scene in the dream just now, it felt so real. This was something he had never experienced before...
Looking at the time, it was already six o'clock in the morning. Barron was no longer sleepy at this time. He got up and walked into the bathroom.
"Your Highness the Duke, are you going for a morning jog now?"
After Barron took a shower and put on his sportswear, he saw Danny Burton waiting downstairs. As his security consultant, when Barron went for a morning jog, he and two Accompanied by bodyguards.
"No need for today, I'm going to the gym. By the way, how are you getting ready for the plane?"
"According to the plan, we will take off at noon. There will be two team members guarding the place, and we will also conduct a thorough inspection before taking off."
…
"Boss, someone from the FBI is looking for you."
New York, IC Capital Headquarters, Ivanta’s secretary Meda Kahn had just finished saying this to Ivanta. Several people in black suits with solemn expressions had already walked directly into Ivanta’s chairman. office.
The leading middle-aged black man took out his ID from his pocket, raised it towards Ivanta, and said:
"Ivanta TP, I am Quincy Dean, director of the FBI's Criminal Investigation Bureau. We need you to return to the branch with us to investigate against you for allegedly interfering with justice and other crimes..."
Ivanta looked surprised when she heard what the other party said. She still remained calm and said:
"I need to wait for my legal advisor to come over and review the relevant procedures before I go with you."
"We have a warrant here signed by the federal court in New York..."
Quincy Dean seemed to have anticipated Ivanta's reaction. He showed an unknown smile:
"I can give you ten minutes now. I hope you won't keep us waiting too long."
He turned to look at Ivanta's secretary, Meda Kahn, and continued:
"In addition, we have an arrest warrant here for Ms. Kahn, so we need you to come with us later."
…
"Hello, Director Yang, please take a seat."
"May I ask why you came to see me today, madam."
At this time, Alex Young, who was the director of MI6, came to the office of Home Secretary Theresa May. Facing this important figure in Cameron's cabinet, he asked.
"I received a report from MI5. The CIA of the United States protested to us. Several of their intelligence officers disappeared in London. Do you know this if you don't know about it?"
After hearing this, Alex Young shrugged and said:
"This is a matter for MI5. We are only responsible for foreign intelligence systems, Ms. May."
"That's what happened, but according to the report submitted by MI5, the disappearance of these people may be related to the Duke of Devonshire, and as far as I know, you have a deep personal relationship with the Duke..."
"This is just an unfounded accusation, and I think it is very inappropriate for you to use this to question me."
Alex Young interrupted Theresa May and said coldly:
"Besides, if according to what you said, the CIA's secret investigation of our Duke is very offensive in itself, I'm afraid we need an explanation from them first."
Among the British intelligence agencies, MI5 is responsible for internal intelligence and is led by the Home Secretary, Theresa May.
MI6, on the other hand, is responsible for external intelligence and is under the leadership of the Foreign Secretary.
Therefore, faced with Theresa May’s questioning, Alex Young did not care that much.
Of course, he was also under pressure from the CIA at this time, but according to the intelligence obtained by Alex Young, the actions of those agents were not officially authorized by the CIA headquarters. Therefore, although the CIA was very concerned about their disappearance, He was furious and hoped that the British side would assist in the investigation, but not to the point of putting too much pressure on him.
Today's conversation between Theresa May and Alex Young was just a verbal exchange.
She turned to ask:
"I wonder if you have confirmed the Duke's current condition? Also, what was the cause of the plane crash? Was it really hit by a missile? We can't keep it secret for too long. Sooner or later, we need to announce it to the public..."
"We are in contact with the Duke, but have not received a reply yet. We have also urgently mobilized MI6 personnel nearby to investigate. If there is any result, I will report it to Mr. Haig as soon as possible."
Not long ago, the British intelligence system received news that a plane exploded in the airspace between Algeria and Libya, and someone in the area saw traces of suspected anti-aircraft missile launches...
More importantly, according to the flight records reported, the plane is likely to be the "Devonshire" special plane belonging to the Duke of Devonshire.
Just as Alex Young said, after getting the news, they immediately contacted the Duke, but no one in London had any definite news at this time, and there was no response from Colo. Now Alex Young himself was a little unsure, could it be...
As for the "Mr. Hague" he mentioned, he refers to the current Foreign Secretary William Hague, who is also Alex Young's direct superior.
Alex's words are very clear, that is, he will only be responsible to the Foreign Secretary...
"Mr. Young, I hope you understand that you are the Director of British Intelligence and need to be responsible for Britain, not a certain individual..."
When the two finished this conversation and Alex was about to leave, Theresa May said to him.
When Alex walked out of Theresa May's office, he couldn't help but sigh deeply. If the Duke was fine, everything would be fine, but if...
You know, the Home Secretary he met today was not the first one to "knock" him.
Prior to this, London Mayor Boris Johnson also met with him privately, and the meaning behind his words coincided with Theresa May's.
It is reported that after Johnson ends his term as London Mayor, he is likely to take over William Hague's position as Foreign Secretary...
