The joint operation against Nicholls Paper Mill involved Scotland Yard, Bullard's office, and Lourenço Marquez, as well as the Pretoria police who were responsible for the early investigation and were introduced midway, so the leak
The possibility is indeed very high.
Owen Huggins can't argue. London is a famous spy city, and Scotland Yard has been penetrated full of holes. Problems may occur in any link.
But the question of whose fault will be discussed later. Since the joint operation found nothing, Nichols Paper Mill has been freed from suspicion for the time being.
Unless there is new evidence, no more raids on Nichols Paper Mill can be conducted.
This result frustrated Owen Huggins.
He was now vaguely aware that there was a problem in Brad's office, but Southern Africa was the home of Brad's office, and Owen Huggins was helpless.
Back at the hotel, Owen Huggins became increasingly angry as he thought about it. He was not someone who gave up easily, so Owen Huggins went to the British Embassy in Southern Africa.
In the embassy, Winston, who had just arrived in Pretoria, was communicating with Samuel Hall.
Winston came to Southern Africa this time to shoulder a heavy responsibility and needed the cooperation of the British Embassy in Southern Africa.
Compared with Winston's mission, Owen Huggins's matter is nothing.
However, we should not take it lightly. This is not a small handicraft workshop, but a large printing factory with hundreds of employees.
If this machine is running at full capacity, I don't know how many pounds can be printed in a day.
"So you now suspect that Brad's office is involved?" Winston was surprised. He had never paid attention to this kind of thing.
Of course, Winston, who once served as Chancellor of the Exchequer, is no stranger to this kind of thing. In the interests of the country, as long as it is for this purpose, you can do anything.
"The investigation results of the Pretoria Police Department show that there is indeed a problem at the Nicholls factory. After Brad's office took over, all the evidence disappeared. This is unreasonable and should not be like this." Owen Huggins was positive.
Fight for it, if he screws up on this matter, he won't be able to explain it back to Scotland Yard.
"So, you don't have any evidence in your hands now?" Samuel Hall himself came from intelligence work. The fat bald man was once his subordinate, so he must be very familiar with this kind of thing.
"Yes" Owen Huggins had no choice but to put his hands up. Scotland Yard had no law enforcement power in southern Africa, and Owen Huggins could not do anything.
Winston and Samuel Hall looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.
"Okay Owen, go back and have something to eat, take a shower, sleep, and buy a ferry ticket back to London tomorrow. This is not your work mistake." Winston shook his head speechlessly, not satisfied with Scotland Yard's professionalism.
What are you talking about without proof or evidence? Intelligence agencies like Bullard's office can do things flawlessly if they have evidence. Just give up now.
After such a toss-up, even if there is really a problem in Brad's office, he will restrain himself appropriately. Winston does not want to make the already unharmonious relationship between Britain and Southern Africa worse because of this incident.
After sending Owen Huggins away, Winston and Samuel Hall felt a little heavy.
It's probably true that Scotland Yard is so aggressive.
In that case, the situation is a bit complicated. Southern Africa has bad relations with Japan and the United States. It is understandable that Bullard's office prints Japanese yen and US dollars, but it is very inappropriate to print British pounds.
Winston decided to mention to Rock when he met him that Rock would have to step forward to restrain Brad's office.
Rock also just found out about this.
Zach has been in poor health in recent years and spends most of his time in Los Angeles recuperating. In Pretoria, the people who know Brad's office best are Sidney Milner and Louis Dodd.
"I've been away from Brad's office for a long time, and I still don't know much about this matter." Sidney Milner pushed back.
"I don't know either." Louis Dodd glanced at Sidney Milner before speaking.
Sidney Milner has a bad eye.
Rock could only look up to the sky and sigh. Judging from the reactions of Sidney Milner and Louis Dodd, this was probably true. Brad's office was too lawless now.
"Call little Zach and ask him to fly over right away." Rock decided not to ask Sidney Milner and Louis Dodd, but Zach's side was more reliable.
Little Zac was in Los Angeles. After receiving the call, he flew to Pretoria overnight and came to see Roque as soon as possible.
"Brad's office is huge. In the British Isles alone, it requires millions of pounds in annual funding." Little Zach didn't dare to hide it from Rock. This matter also had no psychological burden on little Zach.
, don’t forget that Zach’s tongue was cut out by the British.
"But we only studied the production method of pounds, and there is no large-scale production. We mainly make Japanese yen and US dollars." Little Zach's expression was righteous. You said that you are a spy leader, why do you do something but not do anything?
, it’s too much.
"So, is the way Brad's office obtains intelligence now so inferior?" Rock was also helpless.
Rock's original intention of establishing Brad's office was to hope that the agents in Brad's office could be as omnipotent as 007.
It's not just a sneaky business like now.
"Lord, while we are doing this, the Japanese and Americans are also doing this." Little Zach does not think it is inferior, as long as it is easy to use, it is the right way.
It can only be said that the people trained by Zach have a somewhat fragmented outlook on life. Their loyalty to Brad's office is unquestionable, and their character is a matter of opinion.
But this is normal. In a country as big as Southern Africa, if there are people responsible for establishing a positive image and all kinds of greatness, then there must be people who are willing to hide in the shadows and do the dirty work.
"We often seize various versions of counterfeit rands. Some are technically crude, and some are almost fake. The State Administration of Taxation should know more about this." Bullard's office was also forced to respond. Let's not talk about the crude technology.
The part that can be fake and real cannot be done in a handmade workshop.
Moreover, intelligence agencies in various countries use various methods to obtain information, and there are countless worse methods than this. Some countries even train female intelligence officers on a large scale to obtain information with their beauty.
At least Brad's office hasn't reached this level of insanity.
"The United Kingdom is our ally after all," Roque reminded in a subtle way, and reciprocal counterattacks cannot be divided between ourselves and the enemy, and we should be more restrained in dealing with the United Kingdom.
It was so smart for little Zach to be chosen as his successor, and he understood it right away.
This means that the pound should be restrained, the yen and the dollar should be restrained
Please increase your efforts!
So when Winston came to visit Rock later and mentioned this matter, Rock was firm.
"There is no such thing as Southern African companies have always abided by laws and regulations and would never do such a thing."
Winston had a sullen expression on his face.
Isn’t it a shame to have such a righteous attitude?
Southern Africa is already so powerful, I advise you to be a human being!
"You don't have to worry, I can guarantee that not a single counterfeit pound will flow out of southern Africa." Although Roque did not admit it, he still gave the promise.
Winston was immediately satisfied.
As long as there are no pounds, it will be fine. Japanese yen or U.S. dollars are whatever you want. Please increase your efforts!
"Are your negotiations with the Americans over?" With Rock's promise, Winston immediately put the matter behind him.
What London is most concerned about now is the progress of negotiations between the United States and southern Africa.
No matter how bad the relationship between Southern Africa and the United States has deteriorated, for the United Kingdom, Southern Africa, like the United States, is an ally that the United Kingdom must win over.
"It's basically over, but it still depends on the implementation." Roque doesn't hold out much hope. Only when his brain is wet will he believe in the agreement signed by the Americans.
Of course, the United States is not yet ready to tear up any agreement it wants.
"I think there is a problem with your direction now. The Americans are engaged in the Iron Four. Why don't you engage in the Gulf of Mexico?" Winston also helped with ideas. The oil in the United States mainly comes from the Gulf of Mexico.
"It's not necessary. Southern Africa doesn't want a full-scale war to break out with the United States." Rock has an insight into human nature. The person who most hopes for a full-scale war to break out between the United States and Southern Africa is definitely the United Kingdom.
After the World War, Germany was completely weakened, and the only countries with stronger industrial strength than Britain were the United States and southern Africa.
Despite the fact that British capitalists have gradually abandoned manufacturing in recent years to focus on the profits brought by finance, British politicians are not stupid at all.
When the last world war broke out, Britain launched a nationwide mobilization, only to find that it didn't even have enough rifles.
If Kitchina had not ordered rifles from southern Africa in advance, the British troops might have faced the same embarrassment as the Russian Imperial troops.
Now Germany is beginning to revive, the arms race is starting again, Japan is ready to make a move, and the French are still busy changing their prime minister.
Nearly 20 years have passed since 1914, and the world has not only not become better, but has become more dangerous than it was in 1914.
"If you want, Southern Africa can return to the Commonwealth at any time." Winston extended an olive branch to Rock. If Southern Africa returns to the Commonwealth, the United Kingdom will gain a huge psychological advantage.
With southern Africa, Germany's advance into the Rhineland was no longer a problem.
The five American aircraft carriers are no longer a threat to the Royal Navy.
As for the Japanese who have begun to go crazy, the aerial bombs in southern Africa will become the panacea for the Japanese to regain their sanity.
"Winston, things are different now. We can never go back." Rock didn't hesitate, but it was hard to understand.
"Of course, no matter what, we are friends, no matter what time it comes." Roark's words gave Winston some comfort, but this could not solve the current problems faced by Britain.
