Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2 Can't Live Up to It

If there is anything else that can make Rock satisfied with this era, it is probably Rock's body.

The reason why Roque joined the Huayong Camp at the beginning was because he had nowhere to go. Roque's father was a well-known boxer in Zhili, but unfortunately he offended the imperial court and was killed by the imperial court. , Roque's mother died, this is the last immediate family member of Roque in the world, after burying his mother, Roque angrily joined the Huayong camp, although this choice is not good, but for the former "Rock", It's better than looking after a home for a landlord.

In the past, Roque would rather serve the British with the infamy of "Second Devil", and maybe he still had the idea of ​​avenging his father, but this has nothing to do with the current Roque. The current Roque just wants to live in this troubled world. Going on, if you go further, it is to live a better life as much as possible.

There is a father of a boxer. Rock's basic physical condition is still very good. He is 1.8 meters tall and weighs about 85 kilograms. He may be a bit overweight, but he is not fat, but a rare kind of strong. In the Huayong Camp, three or five soldiers from the Huayong Battalion are no match for Roque at all, so Roque can serve as a corporal.

Compared with Rock's previous body, this body is obviously more satisfying to Rock. In the past, Rock also weighed 85 kilograms, but his waist circumference was a full three feet. Compared with this, Rock immediately looked forward to his future life, at least if it was May When Lodi met the former Rock, Melody probably wouldn't "shake" so much.

The doctor in charge of treating Rock is called Jonathan Jackson. He is a standard Englishman. He is old-fashioned and conservative. He sometimes tells bad jokes, but when you laugh, he will look at you with mocking eyes, as if mocking you. Your laugh is too low, but it's more serious if you don't react.

In short, Jonathan Jackson said bad jokes not to make other people happy, nor to show his own humor, but just to show his superiority, whether it is IQ or English pronunciation, in short, because Jonathan Jackson is British, so Jonathan Jackson Jackson has the confidence of honey.

However, this confidence began to disappear after Rock began to check his body.

"God, it's incredible, your recovery is better than I expected-no, it's much better, it's hard to explain-I still need to do some more tests-" Jonathan Jackson couldn't accept it, a week ago Luo Ke has been in a coma since he was sent, and Jonathan Jackson, as the best doctor in Cape Town, has already sentenced Rock to death in private, but now Rock appears alive and kicking in front of Jonathan Jackson, which overturns Jonathan's Jackson's understanding of medicine.

"It's really unbelievable, doctor, I think it's the power of God—" Rock couldn't explain all this, and he didn't want to stay in the hospital as a guinea pig, so Rock immediately applied to be discharged from the hospital: "——So, I hope that as soon as possible Going back to work, it's God's will, you know, we are not in a good situation, the failure of the front line has caused the security situation in Cape Town to deteriorate dramatically, and my colleagues told me that during the week I was hospitalized, Six patrolmen have already been killed in the attack and the law and order situation in Cape Town will deteriorate further before we are incapable of launching a new attack, so I must get back to work as soon as possible."

In the second Boer War, in order to defeat the Boers, the British invested nearly 45 people, costing nearly [-] million pounds, and successively invested in the colonial forces of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and India. This is also the reason why the British established the Huayong Camp , it was precisely because the British were trapped in the Second Boer War that they had no troops to adjust, so they had to set up the Huayong Camp and devoted themselves to the war against the Qing Dynasty.

Now the war has just begun. Although the British offensive has been damaged, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which is at its peak, will never stop its conquest of the Boers, so the war will expand further.

Unfortunately, Jonathan Jackson didn't know this. As a doctor, Jonathan Jackson knew that the law and order situation in Cape Town had deteriorated sharply recently. Except for those patrolmen who died in the line of duty, those patrolmen who were injured in the attack were now accepting Jonathan Jackson's treatment, so Jonathan Jackson couldn't find a reason to object.

But Rock's situation is too special, and Jonathan Jackson is still unwilling to give up, so Jonathan Jackson still wants to fight for it: "Don't worry, I will call Mr. August Russell from the police station, rest assured." Enjoy your vacation, the hospital will try to get you paid time off."

August Russell is the chief of the Cape Town Police Department. According to past practice, Chinese patrol officers do not have paid leave, including the period when Rock was hospitalized. The Cape Town Police Department will pay for Rock’s treatment. , but don’t even think about paid leave, although Rock’s salary is not high, only one pound plus four shillings per month.

Yes, only one pound, that's right.

But the same policeman, if you are an Indian, you can get one pound plus ten shillings a month, and if you are a British person, you can get close to ten pounds a month, so this salary varies from person to person .

"No, I don't need paid leave. It is my duty to protect the city order and maintain street safety. I came here after drifting at sea for nearly two months. I didn't come here to enjoy paid leave." Rock was impassioned, At this time, it is most appropriate to use "duty" as an excuse to leave the hospital. No honest person would reject such a lofty belief. Even Melody began to look at Roque after listening to Roque. temperature.

"Well, Luo, I can't stop you, but I still hope that you can come to the hospital to cooperate with me for some examinations at the right time. I promise, it won't delay your work, and I will apply to the police station."

Jonathan Jackson finally agreed to Roque's request, and then Jonathan Jackson issued a discharge certificate for Roque, confirming that Roque's physical condition is ready to resume work. This certificate is of great significance to Roque, at least for the time being. Get rid of the crisis of feeding fish.

After returning to the ward and changing into the uniform and high-top leather helmet issued by the patrol police, Rock bid farewell to the "reluctant" Jonathan Jackson and Melody again, and strode out of the hospital gate.

Nineteenth-century Cape Town, here I come.

Rock didn't have any lofty ambitions, but just reminded himself secretly that he must not let this life down.

　Starting tomorrow, there will be two changes every day, brothers, new book issue, please ask for a ticket——
