C1160 Queen's Road Robbery

The countless number of boat sent the various warships' Captain to the St. Peter, of course it was impossible for all the Captain s to participate in the meeting. The majority of them were the twelve main battleship s, and there were three frigate s with the highest level.

Within the spacious Captain's Room, smoke quickly started to swirl around. The opened vodka and whiskey were placed on the table, the officer leaned back in his chair and swirled the alcohol, listening to the latest news from EdStefanski.

Molière was merely the French side's intelligence coordinator. He did not have the rights to attend such a high-level meeting, but inside the guard room beside the Captain's Room, he could use the copper pipe to listen to the entire meeting.

Molière had to rely on his two subordinates that were whispering translators to be able to catch up to him. When he heard the shocked voices of fifteen Captain in the room, he laughed, laughed extremely happily.

"Since ancient times, money and money have always been fascinating. These polar bears are truly too poor. If ten tons of gold still can't move them, then I'll dig my eyes out …"

"Sir..." Wasn't this information a bit out of place? Ten tons of gold! Is it possible that with Xiao Letian's financial resources … "

"Is that possible? Please don't use a rhetorical question, please use a positive sentence... " Molière sneered, "Xiao Letian is as cunning as a fox. He had long seen the difference in gold and silver prices between Europe and Asia, and had also long understood the game of silver arbitrage that we have been playing …"

"He forged silver coins and issued negotiable bonds. In the end, he wanted to be the first one to excavate more resources from the Qing Empire. The main reason is because of the gold reserves …"

"The Japanese Islands has many gold and silver mines. As far as I know, all the gold ores in Japan have already been controlled by the Fusang Bank. As long as the gold is smelted out, it will immediately be transported away. "Before, I really didn't know, but now, I finally understand, Xiao Letian really dug many treasure caves in the Pacific Ocean …"

The subordinate continued, "I'm sorry, but I'm still a bit suspicious. Is this information true? This, this, this... This is a little too bizarre! "

"Hehe …" "The latest news from Hong Kong, this is information spat out by a big fish, its credibility is very high …"

What Molière said was not wrong. 12 hours ago, a sudden accident occurred in the Southern Bank of Victoria Bay, which was the most prosperous region on Hong Kong Island.

Suddenly, three figures dashed out of the alleyway on the most bustling Queen's Avenue. One of them was covered in blood, while the other's arms were filled with food. Occasionally, one or two silver coins would drop to the ground.

The third person was even more valiant. In his hand was a sharp knife with a similar bloodstain on it.

Du du du... The copper whistle of the police was blowing shrilly. The early colonial police were chasing after them with their truncheons in one hand and circular shield made of rattan in the other. They were wearing bamboo hats.

"Catch him!" Catch the robber... They looted the gold mine... "Capture bandits …"

When the citizens heard it was a bandit, they scattered out of fright. The security of the golden shop was tight, these three brothers actually dared to rob them by day, they could only tell that it was the Bandit, only fools would help.

People on the street dodged one after another, while the policemen behind were panting heavily. Even the reinforcements were getting tired, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that these old geezers didn't have the energy to chase them. They were just killing time.

Not long after, the sound of leather boots trampling on stone slabs could be heard on the street. Perhaps the robbery was more serious, so it alerted the nearby British soldiers. Many important intersections of Queen Street were sealed off.

Only the people on the second and third floor dared to watch the kidnapping from the window. No one could understand why a simple robbery would alarm this group of British men. Weren't they supposed to ignore the law and order of the place?

Of course, no criminal would dare to cause trouble for the foreigners. The colonists would always be first-class citizens here.

In an alleyway next to the main road of the empress dowager, there was a newly-built building that was also alarmed by the robbery. The owner of the building saw many people running home with the sound of doors closing and doors closing.

But just as the steward was about to close the door, a slender hand suddenly reached through the crack in the door. A delicate hand firmly gripped the door. The steward suddenly felt as if it was rooted in place.

"Miss, who are you looking for …" Before he could finish his sentence, the wooden door was forced open. A woman dressed in plain clothes walked in.

There was white sand on the large bamboo hat, so the housekeeper couldn't see the woman's face, but just from her hand, he could guess that she must be very beautiful.

"I'm looking for your master. I know he's on the second floor, so there's no need for me to go up myself …"

"Ai ai ai …" "Miss, how can you force your way in? How can you not report it!" The steward wanted to stop him, but he couldn't.

Just as the woman walked to the center of the hall, four burly men suddenly rushed out from the houses around them. The revolver in their hands were pointed at the woman, and without a word, killing intent filled the air.

The butler swallowed a mouthful of saliva and sighed as he shook his head. Then, he closed the door. "Why do you need to suffer …"

The woman did not seem to be afraid at all. She smiled and looked at the stairs, "Mr. Sakamoto Ryoma, isn't it rude to treat guests like this? "You will meet me. I believe you will …"

"To tell you the truth, we intentionally acted out a robbery to prevent you from escaping. Now the British soldiers have sealed off all the tunnels around here. If you don't cooperate, you will be the one at a disadvantage!"

Sakamoto Ryoma, who had just left Ryukyu, appeared in front of the woman. He looked at the lady wearing a bamboo hat indifferently, "Who are you? Who do you mean by that? "

"I am …" Before the woman could finish her sentence, a white light flashed beside her. The woman was caught off guard as the white light flashed past her bamboo hat.

A warrior holding a Katana flashed past her side. The moment his body stopped, the bamboo hat and white veil were split in half and fell to the ground.

"My lord, please do not hide your face, this is very rude!" The warrior Katana returned the scabbard and bowed to the woman. Then, it took three steps back to give way to the center of the living room.

A beautiful face with many advantages of a southern woman. She was truly a beautiful woman who pleased the eyes. However, Sakamoto Ryoma had never seen any pretty girls before.

The girl with the knife was not afraid at all. She smiled and bowed as she said, "Lord Dragon Horse, I represent Beijing. I can also represent the British … Is that enough to talk to you? "
