315 Another crazy one
Harry Alsop Sr. returned to London and began to run around, he did not agree with the conclusion of the London Police, did not believe that Henry Alsop had fallen into the water and died, and insisted that Henry Alsop's death was related to Roque.
No one believed Harry Alsop's words, those old friends of Harry Alsop didn't even give Harry Alsop a chance to meet, even the Duke of Marlborough had to apologize to Roque, and no one dared to trouble Roque at this time.
Roque doesn't care about Harry Alsop at all, now Harry Alsop's enemy is not Roque, but the London Police Department, if according to Harry Alsop's speculation, it was Roque who murdered Henry Alsop, it means that the London Police Department has uncompromising responsibility for the death of Henry Alsop, so the London Police Department will never admit that Henry Alsop killed him, and Harry Alsop wants to overturn the case, he must first pass the London Police Department.
Roque had to go to the academy every day during this time, not to study, but to discuss the gains and losses in the Boer War with Victor Foster, and Roque would take a carriage to the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst every morning, eat at Victor Foster's house at noon, and return to the manor in the evening.
Phyllis finally fulfills her dream by trying to play the role of the perfect wife, and even prepares breakfast for Roque with Bella's assistance.
The taste is still good, although Phyllis's cooking skills are not very good, but with Bella, at least it won't be too bad.
After returning to London, Phyllis also has her own social circle, sometimes Phyllis will go to the city of London, attend a banquet attended by women, at the banquet, Phyllis met Ida twice, but the two did not communicate, and then Phyllis stayed in the manor every day and did not go anywhere, no longer giving Ada a chance to ease relations.
At the end of August, fifteen artillery officers of the Northern Rhodesia Division and the newly formed 1st Cavalry Division arrived in London to prepare for admission to the Royal Army Military Academy in Woolich.
Roque is also about to end his school life, the short-term training course is a few months, Roque has not studied for a day, but in the future, he will be regarded as a graduate of the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, and no one will talk about Roque's academic qualifications.
Roque's graduation dress was prepared by Phyllis herself, and the bright red of the British Army during this period finally began to gradually retire from active service, and green-brown gradually became the main uniform color of the Army from 1902.
Roque did not like green-brown, which was very ugly, far inferior to the blue-gray commonly used by French troops, and the iron-gray commonly used by German troops.
Fortunately, after the Transvaal became self-governing, Roque was able to decide on the color of the new 1st Cavalry Division's uniform, and no longer had to maintain unity with the British army.
Not yet, Roque attended the graduation ceremony, wearing the traditional dress of the British army, and the officer's dress was made of wool, which was a little stuffy in the autumn, Roque didn't want to toss so much, but seeing that Phyllis was full of interest, Roque had no choice but to cooperate, and he couldn't sweep Phyllis's interest at this time.
The graduation ceremony was also held in the officers' auditorium, and the cadets who entered the school with Roque all but two unlucky ones who were delayed due to disciplinary violations, everyone else graduated successfully, and after the graduation ceremony, Roque and the graduates had to attend a dinner party before they could officially leave the school.
The other graduates were very happy, but Roque didn't have much joy, after all, he didn't know these classmates at all, Roque couldn't even call their names, and in the entire Sandhurst Royal Military Academy, Roque only knew a limited number of people now.
"Locke, I hope you have the opportunity to come to the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst in the future, and we look forward to more victories from you." Victor Foster and Roque were reluctant, and during this time, Roque and Victor Foster formed a deep friendship, and even little Jackson Foster's attitude towards Roque changed greatly.
In fact, for the aristocracy, it is normal to bully others, not to mention which side Roque is provoked, so Jackson Foster's hostility towards Roque Jr. is only temporary, after Roque gave a speech in the officer auditorium, Little Jackson Foster's attitude towards Roque began to change, and although it has not yet reached the level of worshiping Roque, he will no longer look at Roque angrily.
"I also hope that you can go to the Transvaal when you have the opportunity to have a look, the Transvaal is different from before, when I first arrived in Johannesburg, Johannesburg was full of slums, there was not even a police station, and now Johannesburg has become a garden city, and it is perfect to retire there." Roque sent an invitation to Victor Foster, and when he returned, Roque was going to set up a short-term officer training course in Nyasaland, and Roque was also very greedy for these instructors at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst.
"I'll definitely go if I have the chance—" Victor Foster readily agreed, after all, Southern Africa was also the place where Victor Foster once fought.
"Good evening, Lord Nyasaland." Harry Alsop suddenly appeared at the banquet.
"Why are you here?" Roque's face immediately pulled down.
Harry Alsop is not a soldier and should not be present at the banquet.
However, this is not absolute, many of the people attending the banquet tonight are not soldiers, not only Winston is present, but also Neville Chamberlain and Frank, who are all friends of Roque, hoping to witness Roque's graduation.
Frank has now gone to work in the War Department, and after leaving the intrigue war office, Frank's complexion looks much better, but the hair that has fallen out will never come back, which makes Frank's hairstyle a little funny.
Actually, it's not funny, it's normal to be bald, and it's extremely smart.
"I am a baron of the British Empire, as long as it is the territory of the British Empire, I can go anywhere." Harry Alsop's voice was low, and his face was ugly.
During this time, Harry Alsop truly experienced what it means to be unsafe and unspiritual, and seeing that Roque was about to return to the Transvaal, Harry Alsop could no longer bear it.
Roque is in London, Harry Alsop can't help Roque, and when Roque returns to the Transvaal, Harry Alsop has no hope of revenge, let alone dealing with Roque, maybe even Harry Alsop will die for no apparent reason.
"You're right, I'll miss you." Roque didn't want to talk to Harry Alsop, the guy was in a state of nervousness right now.
"Lord Nyasaland, wait, did you ever think about my son Henry when you were here drinking-" Harry Alsop had come to find fault with him, and he didn't even care about his face and shouted directly.
"Sir, please exercise restraint." Immediately an instructor from the Royal Military Academy at Thornhurst came to stop it.
"You need restraint!" Harry Alsop suddenly pulled a pistol out of his coat pocket.
The banquet hall suddenly screamed, and I have to say that there were still a lot of ladies attending the dinner.
"Shut up!" Harry Alsop was out of the way, pointing guns everywhere.
The banquet scene was even more chaotic, and someone fell next to Roque.
Roque bent down to serve, and Harry Alsop turned his gun on Roque.
"Don't move, you damn yellow man, I'm going to make you pay today." Harry Alsop has gone mad and will shoot Roque at any moment when he points a gun at him.
"Lord Mahanlais, please exercise restraint, you will not solve the problem by doing this, but will bring shame to your family." Winston was still able to keep calm at this time, and he was really a guy with a big heart.
"My son is dead, and now Baron Mahanles has no heir, what use do I want this title!" Harry Alsop threw away his cane and strode towards Roque.
After all, Roque still picked up the fallen lady and handed her to the iron-faced Victor Foster next to him, before Roque turned to face Harry Alsop.
"Kneel, I want you to get down on your knees and confess how you murdered my son, Henry Alsop." Harry Alsop is demanding, not only to avenge Henry Alsop with his own hands, but also to bring Roque to the ground.
"Uncle Alsop, please don't do this, Henry's death has nothing to do with Locke!" Phyllis finally rushed over and directly blocked Roque with her body.
"You are now the wife of this yellow man, and of course you say so, have you forgotten your friendship with Henry? Get out of the way, or I'll shoot. Harry Alsop's eyes lit up.
Roque dragged Phyllis over and handed it to Victor Foster.
"Uncle Alsop, please don't—" Phyllis was heartbroken.
"Get down on your knees or I'll shoot you!" Harry Alsop's hand with the gun was shaking, and with a flick of his finger, tragedy would happen in no time.
"You want to know how Henry died?" Roque didn't kneel, and only then did he notice that Harry Alsop was actually holding a Ruger P03 produced by the Nyasaland Arsenal.
Other guns Roque doesn't understand, for Luger P03, Roque simply knows too well.
That's why Roque was brave and fearless.
"Yes, get down on your knees right away and tell you how you murdered Henry." Harry Alsop was simply howling.
In fact, Roque knows very well that even if Roque kneels down and repents, Harry Alsop probably will not let Roque go.
So Roque easily went straight to Harry Alsop and snatched the gun from Harry Alsop.
Harry Alsop did pull the trigger, but the bullet didn't fire.
"Remember to open the insurance the next time you come out with a gun, otherwise you will be insulted to your face like this." Roark unloaded the magazines, then unloaded them one by one and smashed them in Harry Alsop's face.
It's a pity that he can't be shot with one shot.
