Text/Dream Man Liu Xiaoli

The story tells that when India rebelled, they arranged a loyal guard in the center of Agra Fort. Each gate was led by a white soldier and guarded by two or three Indian soldiers. Xiaogang joined the army and was disabled, but his previous record made him a small leader. He and two Indian soldiers guarded the most remote gate.

The third night. Two Indian soldiers suddenly attacked him. A man grabbed his gun, quickly opened the security door and pointed at his head. Another man pulled out a big knife holder around his neck and threatened him not to move, or he would be killed. He thinks they are rebels' undercover. But then they told him. They asked him to do one thing, just like the purpose of the British coming to India, that is, to get rich, and then asked him to agree to join. Then the wealth they get from the partnership will be divided into four parts equally. Besides the three of them, there is another man named Akbar. The four of them shared a batch of treasures.

This treasure was left by a local king in northern India. After the Indian rebellion broke out, he learned the news that white people were slaughtered. In order to save himself, he intends to take refuge in the rebels and fight against the whites. But he was afraid that once the white man won, he would die miserably, so he was afraid to make a decision. After careful consideration, he came up with a way to kill two birds with one stone, that is, to split all the property in two and put all the gold and silver coins in the safe, which is in his palace. Another man used an iron box to hold all his jewels and diamonds, and hid them in the Agra bunker, which is what we call this castle. In order to hide people's eyes and ears, he made a close friend dress up as a businessman, so that if the traitor won, he could leave the gold and silver coins in his palace. If the white man wins, he still has diamonds and jewels in the bunker, which is good for him anyway. After full consideration, he divided the property like this. Then he joined the rebels.

Later, two Indian soldiers learned that the man posing as a businessman was alias Azimet, and now he has arrived in Agra city, ready to sneak into the fortress to hide the baby. His companion Akbar naturally knew the secret and told the Indian soldiers. When the four of them killed Archimedes together, disposed of the treasure and hid it under the castle, they were discovered.

It turned out that the Indian soil king gave Archimedes the treasure because he trusted him, but because he was too suspicious, he sent a servant he trusted more to follow him to protect and monitor his actions. So when Archimedes was killed, the servant watched Archimedes enter the castle gate, but the next day he couldn't find it anywhere. He immediately reported some strange things to the CEO. Then the commander ordered the castle to be searched up and down carefully and finally found the body. Just when four people thought they were safe, they were arrested and charged with murder. Because only three of them were guarding the door, and one of them came with the victim, the four of them were the most suspected, but fortunately, no one mentioned the treasure during the trial, and the owner of the treasure had been removed and deported, losing the clue directly related to the treasure. But the evidence was conclusive, and the four of them were convicted as murderers. Xiao was originally sentenced to death, but after hard work, his sentence was reduced and he was sentenced to life imprisonment like those three Indians.
