Mike Whitman, the manager of De Beers Unified Mining, would never have imagined that a simple episode would reach such an extent.

Considering the business being negotiated with Hoover, Mike tries to catch up with Roque.

But he was stopped by a commando.

"Sorry sir, if you have any questions, please contact the Pretoria Police Department." The commandos are selfless.

"I'm the manager of De Beers Unified Mining, does De Beers Unified Mining know that? Get out of the way! "In the face of ordinary police officers, the manager of the De Beers Unified Mining Company is indeed qualified to be arrogant.

"Sorry sir, I'm a police officer at the Pretoria Police Department, does the Pretoria Police Department know? If you have any questions, please contact the Pretoria Police Department. The commando's answer can kill people.

"Holy!" Mike was so angry that he wanted to jump to his feet.

But it can only go so far, and if the name of "De Beers Unified Mining Company" can't bluff people, then Mike can't do anything.

Looking at the commando's door-like body, Mike didn't dare to make a move, and the fate of Hoover's move just now has fully proved that these policemen are not easy to mess with, at least they are not afraid of the De Beers Unified Mining Company.

Yes, under normal circumstances, Mike moved out of the name of De Beers Unified Mining Company, which is enough to scare ordinary police, but if the police don't buy it, it will be more troublesome, no matter how awesome De Beers Unified Mining Company is, it does not go beyond the scope of commercial companies, but the police department is a violent agency, and De Beers Unified Mining Company also needs the cooperation of the police department to maintain the stability of the mine.

Returning to the Johannesburg branch of the De Beers Unified Mining Company in a daze, Mike still didn't figure out why Hoover was so unlucky.

Hoover must have seen the black cat when he went out in the morning.

"Mike, how are you talking to the Americans?" Aiden Owen, the general manager of the branch, stopped Mike and listened to the tone, Aiden didn't seem to like Hoover either.

Yes, the British don't like the Americans, and although the United States is now the world's leading GDP in the world, the British still have a sense of superiority over the Americans.

"It's not good, Herbert was caught by the police—" Mike simply didn't know where to start.

"Caught by the police?" Aiden surprised, there are police in Johannesburg?

"Yes, Herbert was caught by the police—in the hotel's restaurant, Herbert wanted to know a young lady, and it turned out—" Mike didn't know how to describe it.

"That's it? Just for such a trivial matter, he was arrested by the police? "Aiden never knew that the police in Johannesburg were so lenient.

Wait, the original question wasn't why Johannesburg had police?

"Yes, it seems to be-" Mike wasn't sure, it seemed to be so, but it didn't seem to be: "-That young lady is the wife of a senior inspector, or maybe it's a fiancée—"

Mike can't confirm the relationship between Roque and Phyllis, but it's closer than the average friend.

"Even so-" Aiden's tone froze, putting himself in his shoes, if it was replaced by himself: "-Even if you are a senior inspector, you can't just arrest people, just get to know each other simply, normal social behavior, and no out-of-the-ordinary behavior." ”

"No, it's not, Herbert also attacked the police, and the young lady was protected by the police, but Herbert didn't have enough respect for the young lady and the police who protected the young lady." Mike thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was to the level of "disrespect", and Hoover's actions were indeed not strictly speaking attacks on the police.

"Assault on the police!" Aiden was speechless, and the same words, Aiden sounded like "attacking the police".

"That young lady seems to have come from an aristocratic family—" McBeenberg wondered why a young lady from an aristocratic family would appear in Johannesburg, could it be that she was also following those gold prospectors to find gold mines?

"Is it really—are Americans so sassy!" Aiden was dumbfounded, it is forgivable to do evil in heaven, and he can't live if he does it himself!

——

At the Golden Hill Hotel, Roque wasted a lot of effort to settle Phyllis, turned around and went to the basement, where Hoover had just woken up.

"You're just going too far, I'm going to see your chief, I'm an American, I'm the general manager of the Kailuan Coal Mine, I'm a customer of the De Beers Unified Mining Company, I'm going to contact the U.S. Embassy, I'm going to accuse you of abuse—" Hoover's roar could be heard in the distance.

It seems that this guy is used to being a foreign uncle in the Qing Kingdom, and he still doesn't change his life when he arrives in Cape, but he didn't expect that Cape is a British colony - no, a colony is a description in the usual sense, and in the official documents of the British government, Cape is an integral part of Britain and a serious British territory.

No matter how Hoover shouted, the commandos guarding him were all expressionless, and it is estimated that the commandos guarding Hoover did not know what Hoover did in the Qing Kingdom, otherwise it is estimated that Hoover would have no time to shout at this time.

Seeing Roque walk into the basement, the commandos stood up and saluted, and the sound of the heels of their boots colliding was harsh.

Hoover immediately shut up.

Roque, dressed in uniform, held a notebook in his hand, and Shi Shiran sat down in front of Hoover.

"Name!" Roque was expressionless.

"Herbert Clarke—no, you're not qualified to interrogate me!" Hoover subconsciously answered the question, but immediately came back to his senses.

Roque looked up and looked at Hoover with a cold look in his eyes.

"I'm not qualified to interrogate you?" Roque's voice was colder than his eyes.

"Yes, I'm an American citizen—" Hoover snapped, but there was deep fear in his eyes.

Roque didn't talk nonsense with Hoover, and glanced at Martin next to him.

Martin came up with a sinister grin and kicked Hoover to the ground with his chair.

Before Hoover could scream, Martin put a towel over Hoover's face and poured a bucket of water over his face.

No, it's not so painful, it's a bucket of water that is slowly poured on it little by little.

Hoover's feeling was very painful, a dignified Stanford University graduate, a dignified general manager of the Kailuan Coal Mine, and a dignified future president of the United States-

This last one doesn't count.

Hoover had never felt the taste of waterboarding, but the taste of waterboarding was never pleasant, and the effect was very good, otherwise it would not have disappeared until the twenty-first century.

Less than half a bucket of water was poured out, and Hoover's stomach bulged at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Bang!

Martin punched Hoover hard in the stomach.

Burst!

The water in Hoover's mouth squirted out at least half a foot high.

It wasn't until Martin lifted Hoover up from the ground that Roque put down his nail clippers.

"Name!"

"Herbert – Herbert Clark Hoover." Hoover's voice was full of tears.

It is estimated that Hoover will never forget what happened today in his life.
