[Shen Xia] Britannia Rose

Chapter 74 Head-on Conflict

Agents from the Military Intelligence Department appeared in the streets and alleys in a low-key manner. They hid in the crowd and mixed with the busy shopping mall elites around them. If it weren't for Isabella's eyesight, others would not have noticed that it was almost impossible to take the subway with them The man in the suit who was late, carried his laptop on the subway, and held a Starbucks in his other hand turned out to be a well-trained agent.

On the way to the auction house, she saw no less than ten such agents, and there were many familiar faces who often wandered Baker Street.MI[-] has always been responsible for domestic security, and this time the signal is obvious that McCoff has gained a place in the power center of the British government.

Claire Green is definitely not someone who is willing to let it go. Now that she has been suppressed to such an extent, if she has not been completely eliminated, then she will definitely endure it, wait for the opportunity, and hide her strength.Even so, smuggling arms and kidnapping and threatening the relatives of high-ranking officials are still sins she can't wash away.

The popular man in front of the Prime Minister who once worked hand in hand with Claire Green, Baron Rosen, stepped down hastily after being liquidated and faced decades of imprisonment. An inconspicuous report in the news claimed that Baron Rosen Your Excellency died of a sudden illness in prison.The glory of the past has been reduced to a piece of news that is less than the size of a tofu block in the newspaper after losing power. Personal concern for Baron Rosen's death.

Claire Green's right-hand men were imprisoned one after another, disappeared and died inexplicably. At the same time, there was a big change in MI6 silently. Often, four people in a team went out to perform tasks together. When they came back, only The next person, when the survivor overcame his inner grief for the sacrifice of his companions, did not realize that the indifferent and rational superior who sat firmly on the high platform only nodded slightly and told him in an emotionless voice, The other three people in the same group are all spies placed inside MI6.

The turbulent undercurrent within the Military Intelligence Service has been brought to the surface. After discovering that McCoff was not interested in her youngest daughter, Claire Green turned around and ordered Susannah to change her target. At a reception, she introduced her daughter to the Mr. Wilson, the 68-year-old cabinet secretary.God forbid, Mr. Wilson's granddaughters are all a year older than Suzanne!

The military intelligence department over there is still fighting for power, and the charity auction here has also kicked off.Isabella stretched out her slender fingers and rested her temples boredly, leaning her elbows on the coffee table. The opening remarks were too long-winded, and the words were high-sounding. All proceeds from this auction house will be donated to social welfare organizations, but It's just a money laundering method covered with a layer of morality.

Not long after the opening, a man in a suit and leather shoes hurried over, looking left and right as if there was no extra space, so he asked in a low voice if there was anyone around Isabella.

Of course, Isabella has not forgotten her character design today - an arrogant lady.She squinted and said coldly, "No, but my coat needs a seat too."

The man choked for a moment. It was the first time he met such an unreasonable woman, and he said angrily, "But the seats are allocated according to the quota. You are the only one. Why do you occupy two seats?"

Isabella snorted contemptuously, and lazily took out the file to sharpen her sharp nails, "My husband and I were originally invited to this auction, but he couldn't come because he had something to do. Is there something wrong with your seat?"

"..."

The man was so stunned that he was speechless. He opened his mouth dryly, not knowing how to fight back.The other people around couldn't stand it anymore, and whispered to remind him that there was still space on the right.The man smiled gratefully, thanked her quickly, and hurried away from Isabella like avoiding the plague god.She chuckled lightly and was also very happy.

The auction on the stage has already been held, and the host showed the audience the first auction item, which is a beautifully crafted jade inkstone, carved with dragons and painted phoenixes, lifelike, as the user applies ink on the inkstone, the ink flows into the carved grooves , a big black dragon full of energy appeared on the paper.

The first collection was sold at a staggeringly high price, and then the second and third collections...

Time passed by, and she looked at the order of the auction items. Her mother's earrings would not be auctioned until the end of the thirty auction items.Isabella was so bored that she started to check Twitter. She noticed that the blank user named MH who had been secretly following before suddenly started sending various small advertisements in Twitter, and even changed her profile picture to the Statue of Liberty in the United States.This is absolutely impossible to be done by McCoff himself. I don’t know which hacker has the audacity to steal the Twitter account of the Chief of Military Intelligence.

Isabella studied ads from the hacker who had mistook Mycroft's Twitter account for a grocery store—he had a pretty good selection.

"The next thing we're going to auction is this set of silver flatware, which is said to be from a Victorian collection..."

"boom!"

The crowd was silent for three seconds, and Isabella was the first to realize that the deafening sound just now was a gunshot!She sprang up from her chair before she could even put on her coat, grabbed the handbag with the Glock 43 in it, stooped and walked quickly.

Soon, the guests regained their sanity. Some female guest made a high-decibel scream, and the crowd suddenly became a mess. The host on the stage also panicked. What happened to the box.

Crowded and bumped, Isabella avoided the impact of a rich businessman with a fat head and big ears, and heard the cries and screams of the rioting crowd. No one can be calm, and it is already very good not to pee your pants in fear.

The escape door was locked with iron chains, and Isabella had no choice but to find a hidden object to hide in since she couldn't get out until the chaos ended.The auction hall has a panoramic view, so it is naturally not suitable for hiding. There are only boxes on the second floor, and there are hiding places. Thinking of this, she immediately changed her target and went against the flow of people.

The second floor is indeed less crowded than the first floor, but it is also much more dangerous, because the gunshots came from the second floor at the beginning.Isabella put her hand on the door lock and hesitated for a moment before unscrewing it. She took a deep breath. With so many boxes, she wouldn't be lucky enough to get into the dangerous one.

Opening the door, Isabella wished to go back in time to 2 minutes ago.

Clare Green was pointing a gun at Mycroft Holmes at the other end of the box!

Her unexpected intrusion made Claire Green stunned. She wanted to hurry up and close the door and run downstairs, but who would have thought that there would be continuous gunshots and women's screams downstairs, flanking back and forth, and Isabella bit her. Gritting her teeth, taking advantage of Claire Green's dazed effort, she ran towards McCoff at the fastest speed in her life.At this moment, she was very glad that she had made a disguise, otherwise, Mrs. Green, who had reached the point where she was killed, would definitely get rid of her and Mycroft together.

Mycroft was distracted in a rare way. He didn't expect the woman who broke in suddenly to run towards him. He wasn't sure if it was Claire Green's conspiracy or not.

Isabella watched the corners of the man's calm lips become tighter and tighter, and her eyes gradually turned cold. He didn't wear the iconic little black umbrella, but his fists were clenched involuntarily.

She hastily shouted, "Frances!"

Frances, the pseudonym Her Royal Highness had chosen half-jokingly in his office.

Mycroft's guard was instantly removed, replaced by shock and worry, why did Isabella appear here?On the one hand, he was dealing with Mrs. Green, who was already insane and could shoot at any time. On the other hand, he found the list of auction items that he had glanced at and ignored in the trash can of the thinking hall. God, no wonder, today's auction One of the items in the collection is Princess Diana's pearl earrings!As he should have seen, this was a gross oversight.

Isabella quickly hid behind Mycroft, at this moment Claire Green came back to her senses, pointed at the muzzle of McCoff's gun and lifted it up, she said coldly: "Mr. Holmes is really kind, I thought you One of those cold-blooded politicians who would use this pretty lady as a shield. But it's a pity, ma'am, that gentleman can't protect you, not himself."

"This is a matter between you and me," Mycroft raised his chin, his voice was so cold that it could freeze, "Why do you get involved with other people? You are still the chief of MI[-], do you want to know the law and break the law? ?"

"It's not just her," said Mrs. Green, "you know what? This time I buried them all in every corner of the auction house—places you can't imagine. Even if I can't kill you, you It is absolutely impossible to get out of here alive!"

"Claire Green, where did you put so many lives?"

"Don't you know all about it? Since I was able to threaten to kidnap the relatives of high-ranking government officials in order to get promoted back then... what is the life of so many people today? If I can't kill you, there will be no evidence for what I committed tomorrow. Appear on the Prime Minister's table? You've been looking into these things these days!" Mrs. Green said hysterically.

"So that's why you lured me to the auction with information about Michael X?" Mycroft's voice was bone-chillingly cold.

"If I didn't say so, would you come?"

Mycroft stood upright, his brows were furrowed, but he protected Isabella behind him tightly.

"I will remember this time, you have a bulletproof vest," Mrs. Green smiled slowly, and she pointed the muzzle of the gun between Mycroft's eyebrows. "Change to another place. Goodbye, Mr. Holmes."

Suddenly, the electric switch in the box was cut off and plunged into darkness. After hearing a deafening gunshot, Isabella, who was already highly nervous, hugged Mycroft from behind with a rough silhouette in the dark, Although the power went out the moment Claire Green shot, it was still very dangerous.

"Mycroft!" She first probed his neck veins, but she couldn't feel it through the collar of her shirt. She smelled the smell of blood in the air, and she was completely panicked. She didn't even know that her voice was crying. , "Mycroft, where are you hurt? Let's go to the hospital right away!"
