Soon, Ellen Wilson received expressions of concern from female friends of equal status to his wife from Paris, Bonn, London, and Los Angeles. He downplayed the impact of this incident in public, but he became rude when faced with these concerns and responded in unison that it was serious, really very serious, and it might be the Waterloo of his life.
"Lord Armstrong, what do you think we should do?" Alan Wilson raised his neck and took a sip of whiskey and said with a sad look on his face, "As you know, I was still in a meeting in London when it happened. This was an isolated incident. The main reason is that The reason is that the new immigrants in Malaya are all Chinese, and they had enmity with the Japanese before. A baseless rumor caused this situation. I am very wronged for this incident."
Alan Wilson was like a talkative woman at this time, venting her bitterness to the leader of the Independent Investigation Commission.
The problems of the Americans, the problems of the Japanese, and the problem of the additional influence of the war, anyway, Malaya has no problem.
"Oh, Alan, please be patient." Lord Armstrong comforted him. "In fact, everyone in Whitehall knows that you are very unjust, and we tend to regard this matter as an isolated incident. But you also You know, this may be the biggest news right now besides the war, and the Japanese are chasing it closely."
"The Japanese, that's just an American colony. What qualifications do they have to speak?" Alan Wilson snorted with a look of disdain on his face.
"The problem is not Japan, but the United States." Lord Armstrong corrected, "We have reason to reasonably suspect that Tokyo is very urgently asking the United States to put pressure on us."
"This is impossible, unless the United States still wants to expand the war." Alan Wilson retorted without thinking, "Under the current situation, the United States will not stand up for Tokyo. There is no reason to do so. The key is that once the United States If you do this, the matter will be serious, and you must be sufficiently vigilant towards the United States when it comes to colonial issues."
"Of course we have to be wary of this matter being used by the Americans." Lord Armstrong pondered for a moment and assured, "Sir Norman wants to go through some necessary procedures, but it mainly depends on what you think."
"Are you telling the truth?" Alan Wilson asked in a low voice. Now that Whitehall's attitude has been revealed, he was not polite. "I am going to put extreme pressure on the Chinese community. The main purpose is to dismantle the entire The Chinese ethnic group is a long-term threat, so this matter cannot be let go easily. We will use all our power in administration, military and public opinion to force the Chinese to pledge to become a support for the British rule of Malaya. So the first step is to take this The matter will be expanded, misdemeanors will be punished with heavy penalties, and the long-term goal is..."
Lord Armstrong kept nodding, then his face became more and more surprised, and finally said, "If we want to achieve our goal, it seems that this is not a bad thing."
"It's nothing more than a funeral. The matter has been resolved. Of course we have to reverse the situation." Alan Wilson said concisely and comprehensively.
After all, Malaya is a colony, and the current British Malaya is indeed a colonial government. It cannot be said to be a mistake to take the opportunity to achieve many things that were ignored in the past.
The next day, Lord Armstrong made an official appearance in Kuala Lumpur in the name of the independent commission of inquiry, talked about his views on this isolated incident, and accepted questions from reporters from major newspapers.
When asked by a Times reporter about the origin of the matter, Lord Armstrong replied, "First of all, I like this question very much. It is a very good question. At a time when the world is in turmoil, the UK's original intention is to maintain stability everywhere. , to safeguard peace, including but not limited to British Malaya.”
"So, dear Lord, what is your attitude towards handling this matter?" The Times reporter asked with a frown.
"This isolated incident will become a classic case for long-term research in the foreseeable future.
We will learn from this incident and leave valuable experience behind. This increases trust, reduces misunderstandings, and ensures that this type of incident does not happen again in the future. "
Lord Armstrong was talking eloquently, and he already had a draft in mind and began to speak at length, "Of course we can see that officials throughout British Malaya reacted very quickly and maintained sufficient transparency. Their original intentions were good. , embodies the quality of the imperial civil servants. As for the cause of this matter, I can only say that the motive may be far less evil than imagined. Of course, Commissioner Allen’s opinion is to deal with it seriously. I agree with this, even if the motive is good, If something is wrong in the end, it should be dealt with, and it must be dealt with in accordance with internal regulations."
"Of course, the original intention of the investigation committee coming here is to investigate the truth of the incident, not to provide any suggestions to the commissioner. We will adopt an objective and neutral attitude to let the truth of the entire incident come to light."
Lord Armstrong spoke impeccably at a slow and even pace, and then the press conference burst into warm applause.
At this time, Alan Wilson entered the venue, nodded to Lord Armstrong, the head of the Independent Investigation Committee, and then sat down and said, "I reiterate here, the British Empire is a place with the rule of law. Of course, British Malaya It may be different. Different laws are used here according to different ethnic groups. We will conduct appropriate trials based on Qing law. You can observe the subsequent progress."
This press conference ends here. Compared with Lord Armstrong's statement, Alan Wilson's assurance is more shocking. Many British people did not understand the Qing Law, but soon the reporter learned from the Malayan commissioner about the horror of this law. Compared with modern law, Qing law is indeed terrifying.
Alan Wilson and Lord Armstrong have already started discussing ideas for the next stage. "There is no doubt that it is a good idea to distribute responsibilities equally to everyone. I think Lieutenant General Bilton also agrees."
"Oh, dear Lord. Maybe this is the appropriate approach. We are ready to take responsibility and make the whole thing public. At this time, I believe that international public opinion should not criticize us too much." Alan Wilson said with a plain smile. , "You have come a long way, I suggest you go to Pangkor Island to take a rest first. The local scenery is pleasant, the sea water is clear, and there are beautiful beaches, which are very suitable for self-cultivation."
"Oh, that sounds really good." Lord Armstrong looked interested. "Of course this shouldn't be regarded as a bribe to interfere with the independent investigation, right?"
"Absolutely not." Alan Wilson denied it. "We will conduct a serious and productive investigation. It will be absolutely open, fair and impartial, and no one can interfere."
"Very good!" Lord Armstrong said knowingly, "Of course people are not machines after all, and a balance between work and rest is necessary."
"It is very necessary. Many local residents from Portugal or the Netherlands come here often, and even many French expatriates in South Vietnam also come here. Some women are very beautiful." Alan Wilson smiled slightly, and then his face became serious, "Then I will continue to uphold the rule of law, your lord, please do as you please.”
Regarding this isolated incident, the British Empire must adopt the appropriate attitude to protect the face of the empire.
No amount of work can be done to achieve this goal. Regarding the issue of the dead of Japanese prisoners of war, it is well known that Japan is an East Asian, and it is inevitable that Japan will be in trouble in the equatorial zone. In the past five years, many prisoners of war have died of illness or natural causes.
"It is a natural trend and prisoners of war who died of illness." Alan Wilson corrected after listening to Edel's words, "We must put important things first. In the spirit of humanitarianism, the colonial government will use this year's financial support to support these Treat the injured and prepare to spend huge sums of money to buy aspirin. In terms of budget?"
"It's already done. If it's not enough, we can also issue public bonds." Alyssa said as she took out the prepared plan.
"Very good, then the next step is to clarify responsibilities. I hope everyone understands that when it comes to reliability issues, try not to make mistakes. Even if someone from MI6 asks, this is a sudden outbreak of isolation. incident, inviting scholars to analyze the causes of the whole incident, as well as issues of social impact. Focus on the academic aspect!"
Alan Wilson crossed his fingers and paused, "That's almost it. There's nothing to add for now. Of course, we can't keep the captured prisoners in vain. For example, we can prove their value through labor, so as not to cause financial burden."
While the Independent Commission of Inquiry investigates from Pangkor Island, Alan Wilson is busy trying to unify the narrative. By the way, the Malayan Security Intelligence Committee's previous intelligence on rumors was destroyed.
If that report is discovered, it may lead to malfeasance, which will be detrimental to overseas civil servants and even Whitehall. Naturally, it should not appear again.
At the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, a figure wearing a sun hat and sunglasses that almost covered half of his face appeared pushing a stroller. Although they couldn't see her face, many people felt that she must be a very beautiful young woman.
The woman, who was covered up tightly, quickly got into a car and disappeared into the noisy airport.
"Vivian, I really didn't expect you to come. It's such a surprise." Alan Wilson said with gratitude as he hugged the major shareholder of United Artists into his arms.
"I heard something happened here, and I'm worried about you." Vivien Leigh stood on tiptoes and asked for a kiss, her smart eyes full of tenderness and sweetness, "My dear, is the matter very serious?"
"To be honest, yes!" Alan Wilson looked solemn, without any understatement in public. It seems that this side will only be revealed in front of women of equal status to his wife, "We have arrested tens of thousands of people, and the arrest operation is not over yet. The prison is already overcrowded."
