Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1817 The Secret Service
If Rock and Roosevelt were not going to meet in Liberia, Rock would not have known that although Southern Africa has an embassy and consulate in Liberia, it has not yet established formal diplomatic relations with Liberia.

It's normal to think about it. Southern Africa used to be a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. Liberia is Africa's "Little America".

The "Little America" ​​here simply refers to the system. In terms of strength, Liberia is not as good as Southern Africa, even the Kingdom of Congo.

Liberia has a tropical monsoon climate, with an average annual temperature of about 25 degrees. In summer, the average daily maximum temperature is about 1 degrees from January to May, and in winter, the average daily maximum temperature does not exceed 5 degrees from July to September.

Liberia's economy is very dependent on exports. In the early years, Liberia's economy was heavily influenced by the United States, and Firestone became a country within a country in Liberia.

Things have improved in recent years. After Nyasaland entered Liberia, Liberia began to export precious wood and natural rubber to southern Africa, especially the rosewood, which is abundant in Liberia, and is very popular in southern Africa.

According to the requirements of the Secret Service, the Rhodesia Hotel vacated the entire hotel within a week, and then all employees were on vacation, and the Secret Service came in to take over. At this time, the team that stood up for Roosevelt was late.

"Sorry, this place has been booked by us, you have to find another place—" The entire hotel has now been blocked, and no one else is allowed to enter.

That's right, Mark Simon, the deputy captain of the Whitehall Police Force, never expected that even he would become an idler.

Police Squad!
Hearing this name, a quaint atmosphere of the last century came rushing over me. Wouldn't it be better to use a nicer name? It's not that I can't afford it——

In fact, the United States also has a Secret Service, and it was established in 1865. The original main responsibility was to combat counterfeiting currency.

Have you seen it clearly, Americans are not honest, they will counterfeit banknotes in 1865, and the situation has become so serious that the US government has to set up a separate department to deal with it.

In 1894, the Secret Service began informally and part-time to protect the President of the United States.

After President William McKinley was assassinated in 1901, the Secret Service began to fully take over the security work of the president and sent two personal bodyguards to the president.

two—

It feels like the U.S. Secret Service is not very dedicated at this time.

It wasn't until 1908 that the Secret Service extended its protection to presidential candidates, and that's when the FBI was established.

The president of the United States at that time was Roosevelt Jr.'s uncle, Roosevelt the Great.

"Hey, hey, the hotel is so big, why not give up half of it?" Mark Simon was also helpless, Liberia's economy is not developed, and there is only one decent hotel in the whole city, the Rhodesia Hotel, and there are only two hotels in the whole hotel In the presidential suite, in Mark Simon's opinion, Rock lives in one and Roosevelt lives in one. After meetings during the day, you can stop by for tea at night, which is perfect.

"Isn't Monrovia your American colony? Go and ask the president to give up his presidential palace—" Li Yan, who was dressed in a black uniform, was sharp and sharp. He had worked in the Secret Service for several years, and his temper was much better. It is no longer the character of drawing a gun when there is a disagreement.

"Don't talk nonsense, the United States is a civilized country and has never colonized any country—" Mark Simon was taken aback. The United States has now begun to be politically correct——

"Heh—" Li Yan responded with a sneer. The United States has no colonies, so what is the Philippines?
However, according to American logic, the Philippines is really not counted. It is a democratic country supported by the United States, and it is a different thing from a colony in the American population.

It's not good to talk at the door. There are sofas in the hotel lobby, and there is air-conditioning. There are all kinds of drinks, fruits and snacks, which makes Mark Simon very envious.

After all, Rock hasn't arrived yet, so these drinks, fruit and snacks are all prepared for Secret Service staff.

It is said that this year the White House police force will be merged into the Secret Service.

But Mark Simon still envied Li Yan.

People are more popular than others, they are all Secret Service, look at the Secret Service in the Palace of Justice, and then look at the police team in Whitehall, although there is not much difference in height, there is a big difference in equipment, and the mental outlook is completely different.

Specifically, it is the difference between handmade custom suits and cheap casual suits.

This is really not sour. What Li Yan is wearing now is a well-fitting custom-made suit, a silk shirt, crocodile leather shoes with clear lines, and a golden "E" with a clear belt buckle around his waist, showing his extraordinary luxury everywhere. breath.

Ah bah, this description makes Mark Simon very unhappy, the bullshit is extraordinary, in Mark Simon's view, this is clearly an upstart who wants to wrap himself in money.

Hey, the adjective "upstart" used to be used to describe Americans.

Of course, what makes Mark Simon sour is that the Secret Service of the Palace of Justice has its own badge, and it is also a falcon holding the earth.

Look at yourself again, a shabby cheap suit, which has been pilled and deformed due to lack of careful care, and the collar and cuffs of the shirt have been frayed. Needless to say, leather shoes, cowhide and crocodile leather are not of the same grade at all. Moreover, Mark Simon's trousers may be a little long and loose, so the traces of dirt from the heel on the back of the trousers are particularly obvious.

This--

It can only be said that the funding of the Whitehall Police Force is indeed not as much as that of the Secret Service of the Palace of Justice.

Mark Simon can only use this excuse to comfort himself, which is also a glorious tradition of the Whitehall police force-poverty!
This is really not a black America. If you go to see the U.S. Secret Service now, it still maintains the tradition of thrift. The pistols issued don’t know how long ago they are.

Anyway, there is not much chance to shoot, they are all fake.

Are they all in the same industry? When chatting, they deviate from the topic, and they know why they deviate from income.

"Don't mention it, the salary of the Secret Service is very low, and they often work overtime. They only have two days off a week, and they don't even have time to reunite with their families—" Li Yan mentioned the job, and immediately talked to the veteran who had worked for decades. Started complaining like a child.

"It's the same with us. The annual budget is so little. I'm not willing to buy a first-class ticket when I buy a boat ticket. Otherwise, I have to pay for it myself. I feel like a nervous neuropathy every day. Everyone looks like an assassin. I don't put it under the pillow when I sleep. You can’t sleep with a gun, and there are still people staring at you every day, don’t make mistakes, and you have to ask if you are using public funds to buy a cup of coffee—”Mark Simon’s life is not easy, American characteristics.

If the danger of the French prime minister is that he will lose his job at an unknown date, the danger of the American president is that he will die at an unknown date.

So the work of the Whitehall Police Force, it's really bitter.

"Fortunately, our benefits are good. All equipment expenses are reimbursed, overtime pay is paid for overtime work, business trips are subsidized, and there are welfare housing allocations, paid holidays and so on—" Li Yan still couldn't help showing his superiority.

For things like Xiuyu, it depends on who you are with.

If you want to show off, you have to show it in front of the most powerful country in the world. If Mark Simon was from Liberia, Li Yan would definitely not be interested.

"What are the benefits?" Mark Simon was in a turbulent mood, and the dog day's handmade suit was reimbursed.

Before Li Yan could speak, there was a sudden noise from the hotel entrance.

"The Rhodesia Hotel doesn't accept customers. Is this the service purpose of your Rhodesia Hotel? Open your eyes and see clearly that Mr. Arabella is a VIP customer of the Rhodesia Hotel. Let your manager come out to see me." The guy who looked cocky was a housekeeper or something, and he hadn't figured out the situation yet.

"The Rhodesia Hotel does not accept individual guests during this period, please leave immediately so as not to affect our work." The staff of the Secret Service of the Palace of Justice were still very polite.

After all, the Rhodesia Hotel is a southern African company, and the Secret Service's expropriation of the Rhodesia Hotel will not affect the reputation of the Rhodesia Hotel.

And considering Rock's safety, the fact that Rock is about to stay at the Rhodesia Hotel cannot be made public.

So we can only politely send the guests away.

As a result, this kind of politeness is probably a sign of weakness in the eyes of the other party.

"I just said that Mr. Arabella is a VIP customer of the Rhodesia Hotel. We are not individual guests. VIP customers have the right to stay in the Rhodesia Hotel at any time—" the butler was still clamoring.

The Secret Service staff on the opposite side were speechless.

No matter how VIP you are, can you still surpass the Prime Minister of Southern Africa?

Seeing that the butler couldn't even get in, Mr. Arabella in the car next to him finally couldn't help pushing the door and getting out of the car, and walked over aggressively.

"What's the matter with you?" Arabella was furious.

Before the Secret Service staff had a chance to speak, Arabella gushed, "Get your manager out, that's how you serve customers?"

At this time Li Yan and Mark Simon walked out of the gate at the same time.

Is it an honor or an honor for you to be served by the captain of the first team of the Southern African Secret Service and the deputy captain of the Whitehall Police Force?Moved or not?

It must be said that people with titles have that so-called "aura" that cannot be described in words.

So as soon as Li Yan and Mark Simon appeared, Mr. Arabella's momentum immediately became much shorter.

"Sorry sir, Rhodesia Hotel has been booked by us, so we can't provide you with services during this period, please leave immediately, otherwise we will resort to coercive means." Li Yan is still patient, it seems that he will wait a while If there is an obstacle or something at the intersection, any car can drive directly in front of the hotel, which is a safety hazard.

"Book the whole hotel?" Arabella was dumbfounded. He is a VIP, so he knows how much it costs to book a hotel for a day.

I don't know the exact amount, because Mr. Arabella didn't pay for it either.
