Chapter 76 The Espionage Case, Peggy Carter
In the early morning of June 6, 1944, the largest sea landing operation in human history was kicked off by the Allied Airborne Forces.
More than 2,400 transport planes dropped three airborne divisions, with a total of more than 35,000 airborne troops, into a depth of more than ten kilometers from the coast.
But in London at the rear, a team of US military police suddenly rushed into the manor that Josie bought in the suburbs less than a week ago.
"Sir, I don't know why you broke into the private territory late at night, why?" Josie, who was awakened from sleep, calmed Vito and other subordinates who were confronting the military police, and then asked the officer leading the team .
"Sorry to bother you, Your Excellency Kahn, this is an order from Colonel Chester Phillips of the Strategic Science Corps. There is an important case of theft of military secrets, and you need to cooperate with the investigation!" The officer leading the team said respectfully .
Different from the fierce reputation of the military police of other countries, the military police of the US military have been known for their gentle attitude since their establishment.
From this point, during the entire World War II, there were more than 50,000 deserters in the U.S. military, and more than tens of thousands of soldiers violated discipline.
But only 49 people were finally sentenced to death, and there was only one unlucky person who was actually executed.
It can be said that it is the crime of laxity in the world... Of course, this laxity is only internal.
So facing Josie, who has a special identity, the attitude of this gendarmerie officer is also very good.
Just... theft of military secrets? Also related to the Strategic Science Corps?
Josie suddenly felt a little inexplicable. Except for the two encounters with the US team, he seemed to have nothing to do with the Strategic Science Corps.
"Is the secret of the Strategic Science Corps stolen? I don't remember any contact with the other party!" Josie asked the officer.
"Your Excellency, I'm just carrying out an order, and I don't know the details, but I heard that it seems to be related to that big star under your command!" The gendarmerie captain hesitated a little, but still revealed the news to Josie.
My big star? Whitney?
Josie had an epiphany.
Nima, is this woman a spy from Mao Xiong or Mustache?
No wonder he was in a rush to come to the front line to condolences, and as soon as he arrived, he mixed with the most important scientist of the Strategic Science Corps, Howard Stark.
Nie Ma himself suffered a disaster for no reason.
"I understand, but before I go with you, I have to verify your identities!" After understanding the specific situation, Josie didn't say anything more, but was ready to cooperate with the investigation.
The relationship between him and Whitney is not deep. Apart from the employment relationship, he has almost no personal communication, and he is not afraid of investigation at all.
Even if the Strategic Science Corps wants to deliberately bite, they have to consider the impact, so the problem will not be too big.
I just don’t know what military secrets Whitney stole, which caused the Strategic Science Corps to mobilize so many troops.
But before leaving with the military police, he still had to confirm the identity of the other party. Although it was unlikely, what if it was a fake?
"Of course!" The captain of the gendarmerie did not hesitate, and reported his serial number, title, and name.
And Josie made a direct phone call to General McInnis.
It's not that Josie deliberately played tricks, but that most of the officers he is familiar with at this time, such as Colonel Ross and other field officers, must be commanding the frontline battles at this time. They are very busy, and it may be difficult to contact them.
Even as a logistics officer, it will not be easy at this time.
Not to mention those lieutenants and captains, they are probably floating in the sea at this time, waiting to be shot by machine guns, and they don’t know how many will come back.
"Josie, you give the phone to the officer in charge, and I'll talk to him!" General McGinnis received a call from Josie, and after asking about the situation, he also took it very seriously.
"Sir, General McGinnis wants to talk to you!" Josie handed the phone to the Gendarmerie Captain as promised.
Hearing the name of General McGinnis, the gendarmerie captain was obviously very surprised, and Dang even took the phone very respectfully.
"Yes... yes... sir, I know what to do!" After responding to the phone for a while, the captain of the gendarmerie handed the phone back to Josie, and then saluted, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest, sir, since there is Mai General Jinnis vouches for you, and we will leave first."
After speaking, he led the people to retreat without looking back, as if someone was chasing after him.
"Leave now?" Vito on the side was a little confused.
He also knew that the military police of his own army had a good temper, but it was a bit outrageous to withdraw without saying anything.
"Hehe, in any country, this kind of veteran who has been in the army for an unknown number of years has a wild way. Okay, go back and rest. I don't think anyone will come before dawn." Josie finished talking with him. General McGinnis said with a smile after the call.
Sure enough, after sleeping until dawn, Josie didn't come to the door again until around eight o'clock in the morning, after Josie had finished her breakfast.
And no longer the gendarmerie, but the own intelligence officers of the Scientific Strategic Corps.
"Let them in!" Josie, who was drinking tea in the living room, ordered his subordinates.
At first, he didn't pay much attention to the visitors, but when the other three officers entered the living room, Josie's eyes could not help but flicker slightly.
"Captain Carter, I didn't expect it to be you!" Before the other party could speak, Josie greeted the female officer leading the team among the three.
That's right, the person leading the team this time is none other than Captain America's concubine, Peggy Carter.
"Mr. Kahn knows me?" Carter was quite surprised to hear Josie greet him.
Although Carter and the US team should have a very close relationship at this time, she is still the intelligence liaison officer of the Roaring Commando in more cases, and there are not many cases of cooperating with the Roaring Commando...It is waiting for the US team to fall. After the flight, the female officer once served as the chief of the Roaring Commando and participated in many military operations.
So the few times Josie met with the US team before, Carter was not there.
Naturally, she didn't have much communication with Josie.
"Of course, Captain Rogers and I are fairly familiar, knowing that he likes English roses very much!" Josie winked at Peggy Carter and joked.
I have to say that the American team has a very good vision.
This Ms. Carter, she can't be said to be extremely beautiful, but she is really big, 32DD.
That's right, two D's.
This is the American and British standard.
American words represent F, and British words represent E.
That means Ms. Carter starts at least E.
I really want to try the feel... Josie couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Hearing Josie's joke, Carter's face suddenly became a little unnatural. Fortunately, she has experienced a lot of this situation and recovered quickly.
"I didn't expect Mr. Kahn to know Steve, so it should be more pleasant to come to our conversation." Carter smiled slightly.
"Of course, you know everything!" Josie motioned for the three to sit down and talk.
"Then Mr. Josie, may I ask what places you have been to and who you have met during the past few days on June 3rd and 5th..." Carter was not polite, and began to ask after sitting down.
