Chapter 239 Cambridge Life from Zero (Part 1) (5.8K)

Lilani Escu.

This is Xu Yun's most difficult character in the 1665 Mavericks dungeon.

She gave Xu Yun a pile of cow dung when they met, but was shocked by Xu Yun's special punishment.

According to the deduction results of the halo.

This girl became more introverted after she left. When she was fifteen, she dropped out of school and went out to work.

At the age of nineteen, he went to the Netherlands to find himself, but unfortunately died in a shipwreck at sea.

Of course.

Again.

When Xu Yun met Lilani, the brat was only five years old, the size of a beanie.

Therefore, Lilani's affection for Xu Yun is obviously not an adult's liking.

Mainly at that point in time, William and his wife had been worrying about losing goods and had no time to care about their daughter.

As for the sisters Elura and Andrea, they formed a small circle of twins.

Big sister Lisa is obsessed with patting with the calf.

Therefore, Lilani's social circle is actually very closed, and no one understands or even cares about her.

This is also a major factor for her to become a bear child-to put it bluntly, she hopes to gain approval through rebellion.

In this context, Xu Yun's "punishment" for Lilani is really different.

So much so that it left an indelible mark on Lilani's young heart.

Therefore, many factors superimpose, causing Xu Yun to become an indelible obsession in Lilani's heart.

If you want to say how much Lilani likes or even ‘loves’ Xu Yun, it is obviously impossible—unless the brat is also a reborn, a five-year-old girl cannot understand what love is.

This kind of situation is not uncommon in later generations. For example, Xu Yun himself remembered a "benefactor":

It was when he was in the first and second grades of elementary school, and he saved up his pocket money for a whole week to buy a very expensive kite.

As a result, they were 'robbed' by another group of children in their early teens on the way home - don't think it's funny, anyone who has experienced security in the last century knows that children in their teens are all carrying knives.

At that time, a big brother in military uniform came to drive away those brats, and that scene left an indelible impression on Xu Yun's heart.

Later, Xu Yun chose to study at HKUST, entered Chengfei after graduation, and even liked to wear red when writing books. Most of them were influenced by the big brother in the army.

be honest.

Xu Yun has long forgotten the appearance of the other party, and even if the other party appears in front of him, he may not be able to recognize him.

But on the other hand.

However, this whole incident has already been turned into a symbol, firmly imprinted deep in Xu Yun's heart, and will never be forgotten in this life.

As someone who has had a similar experience, Xu Yun can fully understand Lilani's thoughts.

And because of this.

He has always had grievances about Lilani's death.

It's such a relief to know now that Lilani has changed since receiving that letter, married and had children.

As for the regrets caused by the other party's marriage?

nonexistent.

At the time, Lilani was just a five-year-old girl, so dirty from playing around that she couldn't see her face very clearly.

If Xu Yun doesn't even let this little girl go, then there is probably something wrong with his mind.

etc!

While comforting his heart, another thought suddenly popped up in Xu Yun's mind:

If Avelyn is a descendant of Lilani, doesn't that mean

Can she be her own creditor? ? ? ?

Perhaps from the point of view of the local people, the family branches separated by a hundred years should theoretically not have the right of inheritance.

But don't forget.

This is Europe, a place that can be called a chowder pot.

Therefore, such things as collateral inheritance rights are hardly common in Europe.

The most representative one is the grievances between Scotland and England mentioned before:

After Elizabeth I died, her successor was her great-nephew, King James VI of Scotland.

To know.

The blood relationship between the two is actually almost a hundred years apart by seven generations.

Therefore, from the legal point of view of the UK, Avelyn is fully qualified to inherit the Mavericks' claims.

Xu Yun:

"."

William Whewell obviously also saw that Xu Yun had realized this, and the expression on his face became brighter:

"Student Luo Feng, after becoming an adult three years ago, Avelyn has become the sole heir to Sir Newton's legacy."

"By the way, this is a qualification jointly recognized by the Royal Society and the British Royal Family."

"So according to the inheritance of creditor's rights regulations in the inheritance law"

Whewell took out a piece of clean parchment from his body, put it together with a pen in front of Xu Yun, with an old fox's sinister smile on his face:

"Student Luo Feng, please write the IOU. I can make the decision. I just need to pay off the money within fifty years."

Xu Yun continued: "."

Seeing this, Avelyn on the side couldn't help but slightly frowned her beautiful lying eyebrows.

William Whewell's approach was legally compliant, but logically it made her, the client, a little confused.

It's like in 2022, one day you were called into the office by the teacher, and the principal pointed at a peer and said he owed you 100 million

Come to think of it, what would you think?

There is no doubt that compared with excitement and expectation, the proportion of speechless and incomprehensible is obviously higher.

Leaving aside other issues, let’s just talk about the amount owed—is it easy to repay 100 million?

This is a real deal, and it's not the happy beans of Doudizhu.

So Evelyn really has no intuitive concept of this amount.

Not to mention that this debt is actually a grievance between Mavericks and Fat Yu, and has nothing to do with her collateral family a hundred years later.

So she opened her mouth to say something.

However, before she could speak, Xu Yun sighed and picked up the pen before her.

I wrote down the amount and my name Luo Feng on the IOU.

The corner of Avelyn's mouth twitched: "."

Is this Oriental out of his mind?

This tm is 140,000 pounds!

Although Mavericks' debt is legally correct, as long as Xu Yun persists, Dean Whewell will not be able to sue.

I don't know if Mr. Fat Yu had a spirit in the sky, would he be so angry that he would lift the coffin panels?

William Whewell was also a little surprised by Xu Yun's straightforwardness.

The purpose of his inviting Avelyn to the scene was mainly to allocate dormitories. He originally planned to accept the IOU when Xu Yun couldn't hold on any longer.

Who knew that this young man was so stubborn that he would be in debt?

As a result, it made Whewell feel less than subtle emotions - there was speechlessness, and there was also a trace of guilt.

all in all.

Things have come to this point, no matter which side has nothing to say.

Afterwards, William Whewell explained some things to Thomson, and asked Aveline to take Xu Yun and the others to the dormitory.

On the way from the office to the dormitory, Aveline ignored Mai Mai beside her and asked Xu Yun:

"Mr. Luo Feng, why did you sign the IOU?"

"You should know that although the debt is legally correct, it is absolutely impossible for Dean William Whewell to sue for enforcement."

Xu Yun was silent for a moment, then shrugged at the girl, without explaining too much.

Of course he knew what Avelyn meant. There wouldn't be too many things of this nature in 2022.

If nothing else, just talk about the Internet literature circle.

A contractual stipulation at a certain point.

If the work is not completed normally, the website has the right to trace the responsibility of the author, and even sue the author for compensation.

But regulations are one thing, reality is another:

Most of the platform chooses to ignore the father-in-law who cut the book, and there is almost never a case of retrospective responsibility.

The same goes for William Whewell.

Xu Yun looked like a poor guy who couldn't afford much money. If he sued Xu Yun, he would lose the face of himself and Cambridge University.

But the truth is this, for Xu Yun, it is better to sign the IOU than not to sign it.

The first is the impression of William Whewell.

After Mai Mai proposed to live with him just now, William Whewell was obviously a little upset because the plan was disrupted.

This is a bit like an old father in later generations watching his daughter not develop according to his own plan, but mixed with a son-in-law with bad feet.

If he didn't let him vent his anger, his situation at Cambridge University would be very cramped.

After all, what Xu Yun is going to accomplish this time is a phased task, and he is destined to have to deal with Cambridge University.

Now that he has signed the IOU, William Whewell's attitude has obviously eased a lot.

If he can maintain a fairly good relationship with William Whewell, it will be beneficial to his long-term development.

The second reason is Aveline.

Evelyn is a descendant of Lilani, what can I say when I look at her

Xu Yun felt as if he was looking at his granddaughter.

In addition, she is currently the sole heir of Mavericks' property, which is basically equivalent to the status of the son of the emperor or the descendant of a saint in Cambridge University.

Being able to talk to her, Xu Yun's next situation will also be much more comfortable.

Finally, there is the issue of the amount of the IOU.

Although the amount of 140,000 pounds seems huge, Xu Yun is a hang-up from time travel in 2022.

If you really use dim sum, 140,000 pounds is not too difficult.

Before Avelyn appeared, the attitude of William Whewell alone was not worth Xu Yun's choice to pay the debt.

But when there is another weight of Avelyn besides William Whewell, then it is obvious who is heavier and who is lighter on the scale.

Therefore, based on the above reasons, Xu Yun still chose to take over the debt.

Who made me owe the money back then and agreed to the custody fee for Mavericks?

8 out of 10,000, usury tmd is not so ruthless T.T.

Then, while leading the way, Avelyn introduced to Xu Yun and Mai Mai:

"Cambridge University used to start the term on October 5th, but due to some changes in the House of Lords this year, the start of the term has been postponed for three weeks."

Xu Yun and Mai Mai nodded at the same time, and Thomson told them about it on the way here.

The House of Lords in the United Kingdom has always enjoyed judicial power, but the United Kingdom has tried to abolish the judicial power of the House of Lords in recent years. The main reason is that not all members of the House of Lords are judicial talents, and not every member of the House of Lords understands the law.

Follow the historical trajectory.

This matter will not end until the establishment of the House of Lords judge system in 1876, so these years have always been a peak period of conflict.

But thanks to this incident, the start of the current Cambridge University semester has been postponed a little.

Otherwise, the status of a transfer student would make Xu Yun's situation even more difficult.

But then again.

Now that I have entered Trinity College, why didn't the task prompt appear?

Could it be that there are other links that have not been completed?

Just when Xu Yun was puzzled, Avelyn's introduction continued:

"Maxwell, Luo Feng."

"The dormitory for the two of you is located in the postgraduate building behind the chapel, and it is currently the best student dormitory in Cambridge."

"There are many students from other colleges living in that dormitory building. You will meet many outstanding seniors, and you are likely to achieve extraordinary achievements in the future."

"But some of them are possible. Well, the personality is rather peculiar, you'd better be mentally prepared."

Mai Jian said that he glanced at Avelyn, and asked with a little doubt:

"Sister Avelyn, what you mean by having a peculiar personality."

Avelyn's face changed a few times, as if recalling some not-so-good scenes, she said with a strange expression:

"You'll understand when you see it."

Mai Mai let out a dumbfounded sound, and shut up obediently.

Then Avelyn kept walking, and said:

"The Commencement Ceremony will be held in four days, and your student badges and gowns will also be sent out at that time."

"Your course schedule will also be notified at that time. There are many courses in the first year of graduate students to be taken together with undergraduates, so the class will not be too deserted."

"As for the next four days"

"You can go to the library or classroom to find your way, or you can visit the literary club next to the statue of Bowena."

"If you want to eat, you can go to the town."

Before Avelyn finished speaking, Thomson next to him interrupted:

"Leave their three meals to me, and I happen to live in the same building as them."

Avelyn was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly:

"No problem, this is the best."

A group of people walked and talked like this, and they didn't encounter too many difficulties in communication.

Fifteen minutes later.

Several people stopped outside a building that resembled the word '冂':

The front of the building is a gorgeous small building with a two-story height and a cross hanging on the top. The horizontal width is about 30 meters.

There are some windows on the second floor of the small building, which seem to be some rooms with unknown functions.

The first floor is full of arches, and the inside is dark, making it difficult to see the details.

If you look down from a high altitude.

The top view is about a rectangle with a length of 30 meters and a width of about 10 meters.

Two other buildings extend vertically from the two ends of the small building, the one on the left has two floors and the one on the right has three floors.

The top view of these three small buildings presents a "冂" shape, and the open space in the middle is a grass field.

Avelyn led Xu Yun and others along a small path in the center of the open space to the end, and entered the first floor of the small cross building.

After entering the small building, Xu Yun and others discovered that the first floor of the building was empty.

On the other side of the entrance is a thick wall, which is only slightly decorated.

There is a staircase at the left and right ends of the small building, and several students are walking on the stairs at this time.

Avelyn first pointed to the stairs, then to the ceiling, and introduced:

"This building is Fiola's postgraduate dormitory. The two buildings on both sides are bedrooms, the second floor of the middle building is the dining room for parties, and the first floor is the aisle and evacuation passage."

"You two's room is 302 on the right, come with me."

Then, under the guidance of Aveline, a group of people walked slowly up the quaint wooden stairs, and they approached the third floor in a short while.

Just as he was approaching the entrance of the corridor, Xu Yun faintly heard some voices in his ears.

It seemed that someone was gathering around doing something, making a lot of noise.

After a few seconds.

As soon as they turned around the entrance of the corridor, they saw several men standing in the center of the corridor, discussing the objects in their hands with great interest.

soon.

One of the bald men yelled out a sentence that Xu Yun will never forget in his life:

"Hey, Milner, my socks haven't been washed in six months this time, they will definitely smell worse than yours!"
