"What? There is such a thing?" Churchill was extremely shocked. After all, in the capital of Britain and the seat of the Queen of England, it is very terrible for such a thing to happen.
Just imagine, in the heavily guarded London, an important person detained by the government could be easily abducted by the German army.
Then it would not be impossible for the German army to send agents to assassinate Churchill tomorrow.
"Have you figured out the identities of those troops?" Churchill continued to ask.
"It's not clear yet." The police chief hesitated for a while and then replied.
"What do you police do? With such a large company, you can't figure out their origins!" Churchill was very angry and cursed angrily.
"Prime Minister, this matter is directly under the responsibility of Colonel Harrell. After all, I am the police chief and cannot take care of the military affairs. The most I can do is to cooperate with Colonel Harrell. Details about this company
, I know nothing.”
Director Nibel quickly and perfectly passed the blame to Colonel Harrell, evading Churchill's pursuit.
"Okay, then go and call Harrell!" Churchill looked at the police chief fiercely and said.
His eyes were filled with indescribable resentment.
Back then, he was full of expectations and handed over the task of guarding Mosley to Harrell. He thought he could complete the task perfectly. Unexpectedly, not only did he have people run away, but he also recruited a group of people who were most likely German spies.
The company came to see Mosley, which simply failed to live up to their expectations of him.
Ten minutes later, on the way to Harrell's home, Director Nibel felt worried, but felt relieved.
What he was worried about was how he should face Colonel Harrell and how he could perfectly tell the story between him and Prime Minister Churchill.
What relieved him was that, after all, through his perfect speech, Churchill had completely attributed the responsibility for the accident to Harrell, which was very beneficial to Nibel.
At least, his hat will not be lost because of this matter. This is a good treasure that he can use to support his family and make money.
After thinking about it, Nibel's driver sent him to the door of Harrell's residence.
He cleared his throat, strode forward and knocked on the door gentlemanly and politely: "Colonel Harrell? Are you at home?"
Not long after, a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside the house: "He is at home. Who are you?"
"I am Nibel, the chief of the London Police Department. I have some work matters that I need to see Colonel Harrell. Please convey them to him." Nibel replied politely.
"Okay, then please come in and sit down."
"No, we need to go to the Prime Minister's Palace, where Prime Minister Churchill is waiting for us."
"That's right. Okay, I'll convey it to him right away." After saying that, the middle-aged woman hurriedly ran to the bedroom and woke up Harrell who was resting.
After a long while, Harrell slowly got up from the bed. When he saw the police chief in front of him, he suddenly became energetic and asked: "What's the matter? So urgent? You even came to my house."
"Colonel, after Mosley fled to Germany, he gave a rallying speech in Berlin. In addition, with the help of Reinhardt, he established a second government overseas. This matter was known to the Prime Minister,
He is very angry now and is ready to cause trouble for us." The police chief described the incident to Harrell in detail, and Harrell was very surprised after hearing this.
"Didn't I tell you to carry it down alone first? If you go in, it won't be a matter of minutes before I find someone to fish you out? Why don't you listen to my advice?" Harrell asked the police chief.
"Colonel, you can't blame me. I don't know who leaked the news. The Prime Minister seems to know some of the stories behind this. He now seriously suspects that the guard troops of that company are German spies." The police chief replied helplessly.
"What? The Prime Minister knows about this? That's going to be troublesome! No matter, let's go to the Prime Minister's residence first, and then we will act according to my eyes!" Harrell quickly put on his clothes, put on his military cap, and walked out.
In front of my house, I got on the police chief's car.
Colonel Harrell was in the back seat of the car, and he and Nibel kept whispering something until the car drove into the Prime Minister's Palace.
The two people looked like two brothers who had done something wrong and were discussing how to deceive the parents they were about to face.
After a while, the car drove to the Prime Minister's Office in London, and Churchill was sitting in his office with a straight face, waiting for the two men to appear.
The first person to enter the door was Colonel Harrell. He was smiling. As soon as he entered the door, he smiled at Churchill and said: "Prime Minister, the weather looks very good now..."
"Okay, I'm not here to chat with you today. I have something more important to talk to you about. I think the Commissioner of London Police should have told you about it on the way here." Churchill said nothing.
Interrupted Harrell politely.
Although they usually have a very good personal relationship, Harrell is even half of Churchill's confidant.
But this time Harrell made such a big fool of himself that Churchill could no longer condone him no matter what.
"Prime Minister, please listen to my explanation on this matter. This was an accident..."
"..."
The atmosphere fell into embarrassment. Churchill had heard enough of this word today and he didn't want to reply.
It seems that "accident" has indeed become a standard phrase used by subordinates to explain to their bosses.
"Skip this sentence and go on!" Churchill spoke after a brief silence.
After all, he still hopes to understand the truth of the matter. No matter what the outcome is, what he needs is a conclusion that can convince the public.
"Prime Minister, the company I recruited is indeed a German spy." Harrell startled everyone as soon as he spoke.
"What?" Churchill and Director Nibel both looked at Harrell in disbelief, as if waiting for his next explanation.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, please listen to me."
"I actually knew in advance that they were German spies. From the first moment I saw them, all I wanted to do was to introduce them to London first, and then ask the troops to eliminate them. But unfortunately, the troops were tense in those two days, and they continued to
No suitable troops were found, so the annihilation plan was delayed again and again until they took action to rescue Mosley."
After Harrell finished speaking, he took a long breath, then winked at Director Nibel and continued: "During this period, I have arranged for people from the police station to monitor them. Prime Minister, you can ask the Director about this.
Sir, confirmed. But unfortunately, they moved too fast and stunned our two guarding policemen, which led to the failure of our action plan."
After hearing this, Churchill looked at Director Nibel, who quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Colonel Harrell did ask me to do this."
"Then why didn't you tell me at first?" Churchill asked suspiciously.
"At first I was too anxious and forgot about it, but now that the colonel said it, I remembered it all." The police chief continued to defend.
When Nibel said this, he acted surprisingly rigorously, as if it was true.
At least, in Churchill's eyes, his subordinate's performance seemed to be exactly the same as before because of his heart.
