Chapter 271 Accidents Happened One After Another (11,000 Words)
After leaving the Department of Medicine.
Xu Yun looked at the bright sky and stretched out, his bones stiffened from sitting for a long time making crackling sounds.
be honest.
Today's two operations went fairly smoothly, a little easier than expected.
Although I didn't meet Mr. Karl in the first scene, sometimes meeting him may not be a good thing. After all, Xu Yun always has a sharp sword floating above his head.
Xu Yun was slashed by it in his previous life, resulting in the whereabouts of a certain little transparent named Wu who is still missing.
If she gets hit again now, she will really become a fisherman.
Compared with the first meeting, the second meeting with Liszt was undoubtedly a great success.
Liszt.
heard this name.
The first person that comes to many people's minds may be the Hungarian pianist with a hairstyle somewhat similar to Suzuki Sonoko, one of the most outstanding representatives of early romanticism...
Franz Liszt.
But in fact.
In 1850, there was another Liszt in England.
He is Joseph Lister.
Lister played an important role in the history of modern medicine and is known as the "God of Surgery".
In a sense.
His contribution to modern medicine is almost equivalent to Mavericks + Dirac in physics.
Now that Xu Yun has successfully connected with him, some plans can be officially launched.
The codename of this plan is "Dark Night Dawn", which has a profound meaning.
But Xu Yun still prefers its alias:
[Secrets that cannot be told to readers].
It's just that it's hard to put this name out in front of others, otherwise there may be corresponding measures such as "cannot vote for the author's monthly votes"...
all in all.
After taking care of the hidden thread of Liszt, Xu Yun had nothing to do in London in a short period of time.
After leaving school.
He asked the groom to start the car and prepared to leave University College London and return to the hotel to meet Lao Tang and Evelyn.
Crunchy——
The carriage moved slowly down the driveway.
The coachman Kazyi Galao seemed to be in a good mood because he had a big income today. He was humming a song while driving:
"Just because the flower of hope ~ the bond between people ~ exists in our hearts..."
Xu Yun leaned on the soft cushion and looked at the scene outside the window casually.
The route chosen by Kazyi Galao passed through a commercial area where various religions and streams were passing through. It was a scene that Xu Yun had not seen much before.
Except for the Europeans who can be seen everywhere.
Xu Yun also saw many foreigners dressed as Africans and Arabs. The nature of London as a trade center at this time was evident.
He even saw a camel caravan in front of a stall.
Just when the carriage passed a corner.
Xu Yun suddenly caught sight of something from the corner of his eye, and subconsciously shouted to the coachman:
"Master, stop for a moment!"
Finished.
His eyes looked through the car window and locked onto an alley about thirty meters away from the carriage.
Although Xu Yun in later generations was nearly a thousand degrees short-sighted and could not tell the difference between humans and animals half a meter away, even if he wore glasses, it would be difficult for his vision to be restored to complete.
But in the dungeon, his eyesight is standard 5.2, and he can clearly see things happening in the distance.
I only see this moment.
There were four or five middle-aged people standing at the entrance of the alley.
They were wearing white coats, with yellow skin, smooth foreheads, and a braid tied behind their heads.
It is clear.
They are from...
East!
To be precise, it comes from the Qing Dynasty!
But it was not these Orientals that surprised Xu Yun. After all, it was not surprising to see Orientals doing business or working in Europe these days. Xu Yun even used this layer of skin.
What really surprised Xu Yun was the other two figures standing beside these people:
The one on the left is a European.
He wore a pair of white gloves, held a long wooden stick in his right hand, and hung a bell on his waist.
This was the standard dress of early British police.
It has been introduced before.
In 1829, the Metropolitan Police replaced the Bow Street Police and became London's patrol organization, marking the beginning of the modern police system.
Its founder, Home Secretary Sir Robert Peel, formulated the principle of low armament at the beginning of its establishment.
That is to say, new police officers are restricted from carrying sharp weapons and guns. They only carry a rattle and a wooden baton hidden in their coats, giving them a civilian image.
This situation lasted until two police officers were killed in 1884, and the Metropolitan Police Department finally made up its mind and officially purchased a batch of newly designed Webley Bulldog revolvers as police weapons.
be honest.
It is not surprising to see a policeman on the streets of Britain these days, but the problem is that this person...
I just met Xu Yun yesterday!
That's right.
This person was one of the two men sitting opposite Xu Yun chatting at the Apostolic Society meeting last night.
What does it seem like to be called a hobbit?
Oh, I remembered it.
It's Holt.
This person seems to be a cadre in the London Police Department, but Xu Yun's specific position is not clear.
But judging from the information this person has about the mysterious gang, it is obvious that he cannot be an ordinary grassroots cadre.
At least it's middle class.
If Holt's appearance can barely be explained by coincidence.
Then the existence of the second person completely shocked Xu Yun:
The other person standing next to Holt was the Chinese student he met at the opening ceremony...
Tian Hao!
Holt, Tian Haosuo, those Chinese people, why do they get together?
Xu Yun then lowered the curtains and began to observe in secret.
Holt seemed to be taking the lead in the conversation at this time, talking to Tian Haosuo and several people in white coats with a calm expression.
In the end, he angrily used the baton as a crutch and hammered the ground several times.
Several people in white coats nodded while listening. After half a minute, the speaker was replaced by Scarface, the leader.
The scarred face turned around and asked Tian Haosuo, his tone obviously extremely harsh.
Facing Scarface's inquiry, Tian Haosuo winced, shook his head, and said something in a timid manner.
The words just fell.
Snapped--
Dao Scarface turned green and slapped Tian Haosuo hard.
Under the strong force, Tian Hao's already somewhat frail figure took several steps back, covering the left side of his face and remaining silent.
See this situation.
On the contrary, Holt on the side stopped Scarface's follow-up actions, and the two of them talked some more and then separated.
After Holt leaves.
Scar spat lightly on the ground, kicked Tian Haosuo's calf with the toe of his shoe, and the group quickly disappeared into the alley.
Inside the carriage.
Looking at the dark alley, Xu Yun's brows knitted tightly and did not loosen for a long time.
Although he and Tian Haosuo have not yet interacted with each other, and have not even exchanged a greeting.
But the other party was, after all, the first Cambridge international student in this timeline, and Xu Yun inherently had some goodwill towards him.
One more insightful person these days can change many, many things.
Seeing Tian Hao being bullied now, Xu Yun naturally felt a little unhappy.
But more importantly...
What is the relationship between these people?
What are you plotting again?
What is certain at present is that.
Tian Hao should either voluntarily or passively obey Scarface and do something for them.
It may be looking for something, or it may be stealing something, or even kidnapping, poisoning or killing is not ruled out.
But what about deeper, more specific information?
Xu Yun knew nothing.
Think of this.
He pondered for a moment and asked the driver outside the carriage:
"Master, do you know where the third alley in front of us on the left leads to?"
"The third alley?"
The voice outside the carriage paused for a few seconds, seeming to be looking for a target, and quickly said:
"Sir, this is a gathering place for Easterners. The atmosphere there is quite chaotic. Everyone calls it... calls it Limehouse."
Inside the carriage.
Xu Yun touched his chin thoughtfully and repeated:
"Limehouse?"
As an exchange student who spent a year in Cambridge in his previous life, Xu Yun was not unfamiliar with this term.
As we all know.
In later generations, the gathering points of Chinese people abroad were either called Chinatown or Chinatown, or Chinatown in English.
And actually.
Before these two names, the gathering point of Chinese people actually had a more derogatory name.
That's Limehouse.
Limehouse was actually an administrative area in East London at the beginning. The literal translation can be called Limehouse, just like the Soho district where Xu Yunqian went.
However, starting from the mid-19th century, a large number of Chinese laborers settled in Limehouse, and a gathering place for opium dens, brothels, and gambling houses gradually formed here.
Various gangs and groups were mixed together, and due to the low hygiene awareness of the Chinese people at the bottom, the environment in Limehouse gradually became a bit bad.
Lime in Limehouse happens to be a relatively dirty creature in British country stories, and house is a house.
The combination of the two can also be said to be a house where that kind of creature lives.
So gradually.
The word "limehouse" lost its landmark character and became a derogatory term describing a gathering place for Chinese people.
Just like pigeon originally refers to a kind of bird, but with the development of Internet culture, it has become synonymous with a certain group of latecomers.
At some offline events, if someone points at someone on stage and says, "That guy is an old pigeon."
This obviously does not mean that he is a bird, but that he is a procrastinator.
Of course.
When most people see Xu Yun, they will often give a friendly compliment, "Tentacle monster, why are you updating so quickly?"
all in all.
Limehouse is also a concept.
Although there has been no outbreak of the epidemic this year, many workers have already sneaked to the UK to make a living, and the number is quite large.
Then Xu Yun thought for a while and asked Kazyi Garao:
"Master, do you know what the oriental man who is about 1.7 meters tall, in his early forties, and has a scar on his face just now does?"
Outside the carriage, Kazyi Galao was slightly startled:
"Around 1.7 meters tall, early forties, Scar?"
be honest.
There was a large flow of people in this area, and Xu Yun didn't deliberately remind him, so he didn't notice the few people gathered at the alley just now.
However, the characteristics given by Xu Yun were quite distinct. Kazyi Galao was an old coachman and had many contacts with people from all walks of life, so he quickly thought of someone:
"Sir, are the scars on that man's face bending down from his left cheek to the corner of his mouth?"
Xu Yun recalled for a few seconds and affirmed:
"Yes, that's it."
Kazyi Galao pondered for a moment and said:
"I've heard people say that that Oriental guy is called siyuepiao... I'm sorry, sir, I'm really not familiar with your Oriental names."
"But I know that he works as a coolie in the Port Port area. He manages thirty or forty people, and occasionally collects some protection fees. He is quite famous..."
Inside the carriage.
Xu Yun repeated the name.
siyuepiao?
Private appointment for prostitution?
Tear off the monthly ticket?
This name doesn't sound like a good person.
Okay, let’s be serious.
There are not many surnames in China with the pronunciation of "si", so Si and Shi are the more famous ones.
However, if the coachman's pronunciation is not standard and pronounces 'shi' as 'si', then there will be many options...
Not to mention the two "yue" and "piao" at the end, it is really difficult to determine his real name.
According to what the driver said.
What is the intersection between such a labor leader and Tian Hao?
Could it be that he sponsored Tian Hao to attend Cambridge University?
This explanation seems a bit far-fetched...
Unfortunately, he doesn't have much information at his disposal right now, and Xu Yun doesn't dare to be possessed by a lone brave man and go into the dark alley alone to explore the truth.
Therefore, he could only keep this scene firmly in his mind and call the coachman to continue to the hotel.
Thinking about what Tian Hao had just experienced, he might suffer some physical pain, but his life should be worry-free.
...
after an hour.
The carriage stopped steadily outside the Claremont Hotel in Charing Cross.
Xu Yun settled the remaining fare quickly and returned to the room to wait for the return of Lao Tang and Aveline.
About half an hour passed.
Dong dong dong——
There was a knock on the door outside the house, and Lao Tang's voice rang out:
"Luo Feng, are you back?"
"I'm coming!"
Xu Yun put down the Times in his hand, walked quickly to the door, and opened it:
"Welcome back, Tang...uh, what's going on?"
Looking at the situation outside the house, Xu Yun's original words were stuck in his throat.
I only see this moment.
In addition to Lao Tang and Aveline at the door, Lao Tang was carrying a sack on his shoulders, looking like he was picking up rags...
Lao Tang was obviously prepared for Xu Yun's surprise. He gave him a covert look and said:
"Come into the house and talk."
"Oh, okay, okay."
Only then did Xu Yun come to his senses, vacate his position, and let Lao Tang and Aveline enter the room.
Then Lao Tang locked the door and leaned against the door to observe for a while before returning to Xu Yun.
Then he carefully put the sack down on the sofa and gently untied the rope.
A few seconds later.
An unconscious little girl emerged from it.
Although Xu Yun couldn't see the other person's face clearly because he was lying on his side.
But judging from the outline and height, this person should be around seven or eight years old, a little older than Mr. Carl's Jenny.
"Mr. Thomson, what is this????"
If he hadn't believed in the character of Lao Tang and Aveline, Xu Yun would have almost wanted to kidnap people when he saw this scene...
Lao Tang made a calm gesture towards him and then explained:
"Evaline and I originally planned to go to Westminster Abbey to attend worship today, but as soon as we arrived at the door of the church, we met Rossetti and Clement."
"In order not to affect the mood of worship, I discussed with Aveline and changed the worship location to St. Martin's Church in Trafalgar Square."
Xu Yun nodded to express his understanding.
The influence of Protestantism is very deep in Britain, and many believers do not like to attend worship services with their enemies because they believe that such resentment will give the devil an opportunity to take advantage of them.
In addition, there are a large number of churches in the UK, which are as common as local Shaxian snacks in later generations, so it is very common to temporarily change the place of worship.
The St. Martin's Church that Lao Tang mentioned is located at the northeast corner of Trafalgar Square. The building was completed less than ten years ago.
The area is located at the interface between rich and slum areas.
Compared to Westminster Abbey.
St. Martin's Church will appear more civilian in size and nature, and the members of the gathering will be more mixed.
Then Lao Tang looked at Aveline again and continued:
"On the way to St. Martin's Church, we met five or six people blocking the way. They asked us if we had seen a little girl with blond hair and showed us a sketch."
As he spoke, Lao Tang frowned slightly:
"Those people were quite polite and claimed that the little girl was their lost family member."
"But what can I say... they are definitely not normal people. They have knives hidden in their boots and clothes, and they have probably seen blood."
Lao Tang's tone was a little solemn, and he didn't seem to have a good impression of that group of people.
Even though he is a science student, he was able to be chosen to introduce Xiaomai to the school. His life experience is actually very rich.
Almost the first time they met, he noticed something strange about the people blocking the road - although they pretended to be stylish, some details still showed a strong sense of business.
In the words of later generations...
This group of people is a gangster.
Then Lao Tang paused, then nudged the little girl with his chin, and continued:
"At first, Aveline and I didn't pay much attention to those people, but on the way back from the meeting, we found... her in a wood pile."
"She looks the same as the people in the portrait, and those people obviously had bad intentions, so Aveline and I brought her back."
Xu Yun glanced at the unconscious little girl, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and said:
"Did she pass out because she was too hungry?"
"Hungry?"
Lao Tang was stunned when he heard this, and his face immediately became a little strange. He kept looking at Aveline from the corner of his eye:
"Actually, she was very conscious at first and hid behind the wood pile. We were afraid that those people would do her harm, but she was extremely wary of us, and Aveline happened to bring a Bible with her today, so...
....”
Looking at the somewhat shy Lao Tang and Aveline, for some reason, Xu Yun always felt a dull pain on the left side of his head...
Good guy.
Fortunately, she is a distant relative of Mavericks, a direct descendant of Lilani, and has inherited the fine traditions of the Escu family. She is not fighting alone...
anyway.
This...t!m!d! Is this a kidnapping?!
Seeing that the corners of Xu Yun's eyes were twitching, there was a rare trace of panic on Lao Tang Nian's paralyzed face, and he quickly explained:
"Luo Feng, we observed her condition before taking action. She is an obvious wanderer. Otherwise, we would not resort to such extreme measures."
Xu Yun exhaled a breath full of complex emotions and said with understanding:
"So you brought her back? Are you going to take her back to Cambridge University?"
Lao Tang nodded and said:
"Yes, at least take her out of London first, and then try to see if we can contact her family."
"If that doesn't work, just place her in the orphanage of Trinity College Church - maybe she will find Sunday school life a bit boring, but at least it will be much better than staying in a den of thieves."
Xu Yun pondered for a moment and did not express any objection.
Although Lao Tang and Aveline’s methods are somewhat violent, their starting point is indeed not problematic:
Judging from the little girl's clothes and skin color, it is obvious that she has been in a state of malnutrition and wandering for a long time.
Either he is an orphan or he has lost contact with his family.
in this case.
Some obviously shady people were looking for her, which obviously couldn't be a good thing.
And the other party was wary of Lao Tang and Aveline, so Aveline had no choice but to come to Boyley to convince them...
be honest.
Faced with this situation, even Xu Yun had no good solution - in 2022, he could still try humming a song called Lone Warrior to see if he could connect via Bluetooth, but this trick was obviously useless in 1850.
Either choose not to save him, ignore him indifferently, turn around and leave directly.
Or you can only control the opponent's ability to move first.
Once she is brought back to her own territory, Cambridge University, the options will naturally become much easier.
At that time, you can either try to help her find relatives, or you can foster her into an orphanage in the church.
Anyway, British Protestantism is not very clean these days, at least it does not have some malicious habits towards young children - as I introduced a long time ago, British Protestantism and Catholicism are two different situations.
Therefore, it is relatively safe to place this girl in the church.
"Um......."
Just when Xu Yun was silent.
Suddenly, a murmur came from the unconscious little girl's mouth.
A few seconds passed.
The little girl slowly opened her eyes.
I saw her touching the soft sofa under her with some surprise, then looking around for two seconds. After seeing Lao Tang and Aveline, her body suddenly stiffened and her pupils shrank round:
"save......."
Before the last word of fate came out, Lao Tang stepped forward and covered her mouth, and said at the same time:
"Child, please listen to me first - we have no ill intentions towards you. The elder sister and I met some people with your portrait on the road. We were afraid that something would happen to you, so we brought you here."
"This is the hotel where we are staying. You can feel your physical condition first. We have not done anything bad to you!"
"I'll count to five and then let go. You can calm down and communicate with us, okay?"
"five four three two one!"
After the countdown ends.
Lao Tang removed his left hand from the little girl's mouth, but he was still physically ready to control her again.
The little girl looked around helplessly for a few times, then looked at her hands and feet.
Then he hugged his knees and sat back on the sofa, huddled in the corner, and two lines of tears fell down at once:
"Woooooooo..."
Lao Tangjian said that he looked at each other with Xu Yun and Aveline, and all three pairs of eyes looked a little confused.
It's okay if you let them do scientific research and talk about literature, but coaxing children...
Who the hell would do this?
Looking at the little girl who kept crying, Aveline hesitated for a moment, picked up a piece of bread from the table, and handed it to her:
"Little sister, stop crying and have something to eat, okay?"
See this situation.
Xu Yun shook his head gently.
Just kidding, how can people eat noodles in this kind of environment...
This thought hasn't finished yet.
Then I saw the little girl twitching her nose a few times, taking the bread, and biting it one bite at a time.
Xu Yun: "..."
But then again.
Why does he always feel a little weird looking at this little girl?
There seems to be a strange sense of familiarity?
Think of this.
Xu Yun couldn't help lowering his head and took a serious look at the little girl who was eating bread.
A few seconds later.
A memory emerged from my mind and exploded.
Xu Yun slapped his forehead fiercely and said suddenly:
"Let me go, it turns out it's you!"
Then he looked at Lao Tang aside and asked:
"Mr. Thomson, do you remember the little girl we met at the checkpoint when we first arrived in London?"
"Checkpoint into town? Little girl?"
Lao Tang was not a fool. He was just stunned for a moment and then he realized:
"Oh, is that the little girl who stole... timidly begged for bread?"
Xu Yun nodded heavily.
That's right.
The girl in front of me is no one else.
It was the little beggar Xu Yun met when he entered the city on the day he first arrived in London!
At that time, he and Xiaomai were overflowing with sympathy and kindly gave her some food, but in the end, the girl stole a few pieces of gold.
No wonder Xu Yun always felt that the other party looked familiar...
Think of this.
Xu Yun couldn't help but glance at her and asked:
"Little sister, what's your name?"
When the little girl heard this, her cheek that had been chewing bread suddenly stiffened.
He moved slightly towards Aveline and said weakly:
"Sylph..."
Seeing this, Aveline pulled the little girl over, touched her head, and rolled her eyes at Xu Yun:
"Luo Feng, please lower your voice. See how scared Sylph is."
Xu Yun:
"...."
Please, among the three people present, you are the least qualified to say this...
Then he shook his head and looked at Sylph again.
He is seven or eight years old, his clothes are in tatters, his hair is dry, and his skin has an unhealthy sallow color...
The only thing about Sylph that could be called complete was a small gray bag tied around her waist.
The small bag is a little shriveled. To the naked eye, the contents stored inside are about the size of an egg. They should be some kind of small vault saved by hard work.
Judging from the size, six pounds can be stuffed inside, which is considered too much.
Then Xu Yun sighed and asked Sylph:
"So Sylph, those people chasing you are members of the theft gang, right?"
Sylph nodded and was about to speak.
But before speaking, he glanced at the bread in his hand again, couldn't help but take another bite, swallowed it with difficulty, and then said:
"Well...Brother Frege died of illness yesterday. Before he died, he told me to escape from there..."
Hearing this, Xu Yun looked at each other with Lao Tang and Aveline, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
The life of today's thieves group can be seen from "Oliver Twist".
London in 1850 seemed beautiful, but in fact it was a man-eating flower blooming on blood.
........
I don’t know if the bread increases the favorability.
After Aveline proposed the idea of returning to Cambridge together, Sylph's little head immediately clicked so fast that it was almost like an afterimage.
According to her.
Her parents abandoned her on the street when she was born, and she was raised by a street boy named Frege.
Now that Frege has passed away, Sylph is helpless and naturally willing to follow Aveline back to Cambridge.
There were three of us when we arrived, but there was an extra member when we left.
But the process is not too troublesome.
After all, the thieves' gang is a low-level organization and has no ability to inspect carriages entering and leaving the city.
So Lao Tang and Aveline simply wrapped a scarf around Sylph's face and covered her little head with a hat.
He successfully stuffed her into the carriage and left the city leisurely.
I don’t know if it’s because she was ‘educated’ in the den of thieves, but Sylph seems to be very well-behaved and sensible.
Along the way, he held Aveline's hand tightly and remained silent.
After leaving London.
Lao Tang suddenly thought of something, turned to Xu Yun and said:
"By the way, Luo Feng, the Apostolic Society's new recruit list has been released."
Xu Yun was slightly stunned, and subconsciously wanted to ask Lao Tang how he knew this.
But then I thought about it.
Since Lao Tang and Aveline met Rossetti and Clement in the morning, they would inevitably meet other members of the Apostolic Society. It is not surprising to know the result from the mouths of Stanley and others who are familiar with them.
Figure this out.
Xu Yun couldn't help but have a thirst for knowledge in his eyes, and asked:
"Besides Hallam, who is the other one? Classmate Bruch?"
Lao Tang shook his head and said:
"It's Dario Duarte, who won the second membership by two votes."
Xu Yun was stunned when he heard this and became silent.
Dario Duarte.
He had an impression of this person. He was one of the best performers in the first round of self-introduction.
At that time, Xu Yun once made a rating by himself, and Dario Duarte and Bruch were tied for second place.
In addition, he is also the grandson of Lord Duarte, so he can undoubtedly be regarded as 'noble' by birth.
Now that he knew that Dario Duarte had beaten Bruch in the final vote, Xu Yun couldn't help but feel a little guilty:
If this incident of his had not come out, Bruch would have definitely been able to enter the Apostolic Society.
Don't say anything else.
Follow the requirements for the job interview.
Needless to say, Lao Tang, as one of the seven interview recommenders, was not qualified to vote during the entire process.
But Aveline will not be restricted by rules...
Suppose she gives a yes vote to Bruch and a no vote to Dario Duarte.
In this way, the gap between Bruh and Dario Duarte was directly eliminated.
At the same time, Bruch did not choose to draw boundaries with himself after he abstained from voting. Not to mention that there are many such behaviors, it is certain that it will affect the impression of one or two Apostolic Societies, right?
Bruch had no grudge against Rossetti and Clement. According to the pattern during World War II, he and Rossetti were still allies of the Axis powers...
Bruch has always been an artist, and joining the Apostolic Society has only advantages and no disadvantages for him, but now...
Why.
Thinking of this, a trace of heaviness flashed in Xu Yun's eyes.
If Bruch were a scientist, it would be easier.
Just like the wave equation and electromagnetic waves deduced by Xu Yun before, although he took away the credit from Wheat, he had many ways to make up for it.
But in terms of literature and music...
It’s true.
The music Xu Yun is most familiar with is the opening song of Mixue Bingcheng and Tokyo Hot...
In this case, what is the remedy?
Xu Yun then shook his head and forced himself to put this somewhat troublesome matter behind him.
I saw his expression became serious and he said to Lao Tang:
"Mr. Thomson, according to the plan, we will start preparing for the Gewu Society."
Lao Tang nodded when he heard this and asked happily:
"I understand. Apart from the formalities, is there anything else I need to cooperate with? Just ask!"
Xu Yun was silent for a moment, went over his thoughts, and said to Lao Tang:
"Mr. Thomson, can you please persuade some mathematics students to come and help?"
"Mathematics student?"
Lao Tang raised his eyelids and glanced at him, subconsciously saying:
"How many people do you want?"
Xu Yun picked up the water bottle he carried with him, took a sip, and replied:
"At least 30 people, no limit. This time I need a strong computing power for mathematical support."
"So this group of people must be very capable, and don't choose those who are just dawdling."
Lao Tang's expression changed for a while, and finally he said:
"No problem. Leave the manpower to me. I'll bring you at least 30 people. Do you have any more?"
Xu Yun thought for a while and said to Lao Tang:
"The second thing is...can you please bring Mr. Daniel Bradley over to help?"
"Daniel Bradley?"
Hearing this name, Lao Tang was slightly startled:
"What are you looking for him for?"
Daniel Bradley.
This person was the mysterious second person who suggested that Xu Yun be interviewed by the Apostolic Society. He was the member of the Apostolic Society who was grateful to Xu Yun because he calculated the speed of light and vindicated his ancestors.
Xu Yun glanced at the sky outside the window, which was already a little dark at this time, and explained:
"The Bradley family has been engaged in astronomical research for a long time. They have made private observations and compiled a batch of very critical data. These data are very critical to my next plan."
"If we can't persuade him, it's not impossible to come up with an alternative plan, but the time and cost will be very high, and it will be extended at least three times."
Seeing Xu Yun speaking so seriously, Lao Tang's expression became more formal.
I just heard him ponder for a while and then said slowly:
"Luo Feng, you should know that Daniel has never been a member of my family and has always chosen neutrality."
"Now that we are incompatible with the Apostolic Society, we want him to help you despite the pressure... I can only hope that his gratitude to you is enough."
Xu Yun also nodded and said with understanding:
"It depends on people. If it doesn't work, we can start alternative plans. In short, I will be prepared."
Lao Tang seemed very satisfied with Xu Yun's answer and continued to ask:
"Apart from Daniel? Are there any other links that I need to take the lead in?"
Xu Yun thought about it carefully, shook his head and said:
"In addition, we need to invite someone else, but his side should be relatively simple. It should be enough for me to step in."
Lao Tang blinked and asked:
"who?"
"Hubert Airy, my cheap classmate."
