Chapter 469 Counterattack

A week after Arder returned to London, Henry Alsop's father, Harry Alsop, also returned to London.

Harry Alsop has only one son, Henry, so you can imagine how sad Harry Alsop is, even if the National Party wins in the subsequent elections, Harry Alsop becomes Prime Minister of Transvaal, All this is meaningless.

Coincidentally, Rock met Harry Alsop at Alder's house.

After seeing Rock, Harry Alsop's eyes turned red obviously, and the hand holding the cane was bruised. It was obvious that Harry Alsop was trying his best to endure.

"Lord Mahanleth, good morning, I didn't expect to see you here. I heard about Henry. It's a pity that I haven't seen Henry since I returned to London. I hope you are all well." Rock The performance was not very enthusiastic, and of course he did not gloat. Harry Alsop observed carefully and did not find anything unusual about Rock.

There is no guilty conscience, no hatred, only a touch of alienation. On the surface, there is no difference from the previous Rock.

"Lord Nyasaland, do you also think that Henry fell into the water by mistake? There must be a conspiracy behind this. I swear, I will find out the mastermind behind the scenes and use his blood and head to pay homage to Henry." Regardless of Rock's behavior How nice that Harry Alsop believed that Rock had killed Henry.

"I wish you success!" Rock was noncommittal. If he wanted revenge, he had to have that ability.

Now the Metropolitan Police Department has determined that Henry fell into the water and died, not murder, so even if Harry Alsop wanted to investigate, he could only rely on his own ability, not the power of the British government.

It's not that Rock looks down on Harry Alsop, but with Harry Alsop's power, it may be very difficult to cause substantial damage to Rock. At most, Harry Alsop can rely on those pretentious things to Rock makes some impact.

But at the same time, Roque is also very good at guiding public opinion, so even if Harry Alsop wants to attack Roque with public opinion, Roque will not be afraid. Guiding public opinion and buying reporters have to be paid. Harry Alsop Alsop is definitely not as rich as Rock, so Rock is not afraid of this level of threat at all.

Even if Harry Alsop wants to die, Roque will not be afraid. Among other things, the guards around Roque can be said to be Roque's dead soldiers. They are willing to sacrifice their lives for Roque at any time, because they know that even if When they die, Rock will take care of their families.

Not to mention that there is an umbrella of secrets lurking. If Roque is willing, Roque can even create another accident and let Harry Alsop go to see God. Maybe the two of them will meet again in heaven.

"Lord, although I shouldn't say this, I still hope you can forget about hatred." Ade did not suggest revenge for Harry Alsop. He had no children and could not understand such feelings.

"Alfred, how is it possible, without Henry, my life has no meaning, I wake up from pain every night, in my dream I will dream that Henry told me that he was killed Yes, I can't meet Henry's eyes—" Harry Alsop finally lost his composure, covering his face with his hands and putting them on his knees.

Ade didn't know how to comfort Harry Alsop, he gave Rock a stern look, and then motioned Rock to leave.

Rock could only smile helplessly.

Back home, Rock had to face Phyllis.

Phyllis also finally knew the news of Henry Alsop's accidental death. Like Harry Alsop, Phyllis's first suspicious target was Rock.

"How is it possible? I haven't seen Henry Alsop since I came to London. Even if he is as hateful as before, the most I can do is ignore him, and I won't put him to death." Rock denied it. Phyllis She and Henry Alsop grew up together. Even if Phyllis had no feelings for Henry Alsop, Phyllis would definitely not want to see Henry Alsop die brutally, so proper concealment is very difficult. important.

"Actually, Henry is a good person. We grew up together when we were young. He took good care of me at that time. It was only after he grew up that Henry became like this. It was his cronies who harmed him." Phyllis must have trusted Luo unconditionally. Ke, Phyllis will believe whatever Roque says.

Of course, Phyllis will inevitably feel depressed, which is also normal.

"His main problem is that he overestimated himself. He was too depressed in London, and then he was too arrogant in the Transvaal, but he didn't have the strength to be arrogant. In addition, he chose the wrong opponent, so he fell into today's end. It's not surprising." Rock didn't have the slightest affection for Henry Alsop, so of course he owed no apology at all.

Rock doesn't believe in those so-called "meetings, laughing and grievances". It takes a big heart to forget what happened before. If it can be done, it can only prove that the hurt is not deep enough. The real hatred It should be the kind of "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years".

Regarding the relationship between Rock and Henry Alsop, if Rock now expressed regret for Henry Alsop, it would instead arouse Phyllis' suspicion. This attitude is just right now, and he deserves to die.

"Everyone is dead, don't say that." Phyllis also blamed Roque for not accumulating virtue.

Rock stopped talking nonsense and thought about how to deal with Harry Alsop. The old guy is more difficult to deal with than the little guy. Henry Alsop just "died unexpectedly". If Harry Alsop also Accidental death, that would be great fun, anyone would suspect the cause of their father's death.

In the evening, Winston came to Rock and reminded Rock to pay attention to William's threat.

"Henry Alsop seems to have said something to William before he died. William has been behaving strangely during this time. He often hangs out with his group of friends and meets a few new friends from the newspaper office. You have to be careful, although I don't know what William is going to do yet, but this guy must be plotting against you." Winston didn't have the slightest liking for William, saying that open and secret fights between noble families are also common, with legitimate sons and concubines, side branches, every minute is a big drama staged.

"It's okay, thank you for reminding Winston, I will pay attention." Rock was very annoyed, just killed a Henry Alsop, and jumped out a more powerful William Churchill. I hate this kind of life more and more, and my original expectations for the military academy have disappeared.

"The military academy has started for four weeks. You should go to school, right?" Winston also graduated from the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy, and he was very clear about the academy's curriculum.

"I'll go to class in a few days." Rock considered whether to send Phyllis and Gavin back to Johannesburg first, so that if Rock felt that the situation was not good, he could leave at any time.

After all, London and Johannesburg are still different. In Johannesburg, Roque is not afraid of direct arrows and hidden arrows. The situation in London is much more complicated. Luo doesn't want to provoke others, but when others take the initiative to provoke them, it may be because Roque has been too low-key during this time. , making people feel that Rock is easy to bully.

If you want to make a high profile, it's not impossible. Let Tang En and the other guards wear the uniforms of the new First Cavalry Division. Then if anyone dares to find fault, they will think of Rock's position.

There are indeed a lot of barons in London, but there are very few barons who hold military positions and actually control the army. Consider the consequences of Rock's counterattack.

Just do what you want, and when you go out again in the afternoon, Tang En and a squad of guards put on their uniforms, ride a Thoroughbred horse they bought temporarily, and guard around Rock's carriage.

Not long after the carriage left home, Tang En approached the window and reported in a low voice: "My lord, there is a carriage following us."

What the hell, dare to follow in public?

Rock almost wanted to laugh, and immediately gave instructions to Tang En: "Catch him and send him to the manor. No matter what method you use, pry his mouth open for me."

Tang En also wanted to laugh out loud, and led a few guards around and galloped away.

That night, a superintendent of the Metropolitan Police found Rock Manor.

"Sorry, my lord is not here." The guards at the gate of the manor had also changed into military uniforms, and the superintendent was not allowed to enter the manor at all.

"Then can you tell me where your lord has gone?" the superintendent asked patiently, not even thinking of getting angry.

This is London, but Rock's guards are actually equipped with light machine guns when patrolling: Are these bastards using London as a battlefield!

"Sorry, my lord is not here." The guard was still serious.

The superintendent had no choice but to leave disgruntled.

Throughout the night, the ringing of the phone in Rock's office never stopped.

The next morning, Rock volunteered to go to the Metropolitan Police.

"Mr. Chief, when I was looking for Lord Halewood yesterday, I found someone following my carriage, so my guards arrested him. Now he is outside. This is a confession." Rock came with evidence of.

Police Chief Leonard Bennett looked over the statement with a mixed expression.

The people who followed Rock's carriage were two reporters from the "Daily Mail". ·James Spencer Churchill's order to follow Rock's carriage.

The "Daily Mail" also has a strong background. Its founder is Alfred Charles William Harmsworth, who was knighted just this year for his contribution to the journalism industry.

William Churchill was even more powerful. Although the Duke of Marlborough did not have a specific position, he ranked tenth in the British aristocratic system, and the police did not dare to provoke him.

"Lord Nyasaland, what are you going to do?" Leonard Bennett tested Rock's tone.

"London is your territory, not mine." Rock also had the experience of being a policeman and understood Leonard Bennett's difficulties.

But this doesn't change Rock's attitude.
