Chapter 9: Lectures of the Royal Society

At No. 4 Whitehall Street, Arthur, dressed in a police uniform, walked out of the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police in Greater London.

He was joined by a group of police inspectors in charge of other police districts in London, who exchanged ideas about the work assigned to them at this morning's police meeting, and joked with each other from time to time.

Most of the inspectors were in their thirties, and among the crowd, the young Arthur stood out.

The old police inspectors also took good care of this young man who was climbing like a rocket, but there was more of a sense of politeness between the words.

Everyone knew that the young man was a figure that was greatly appreciated by Home Secretary Robert Peele, but the feeling of being treated with special treatment made Arthur feel uncomfortable.

Agareth looked at the smiling old inspectors with bad intentions, and he reminded Arthur.

"It's all hypocrisy, look at their eyes, no matter how enthusiastic the smile is, it can't cover the real eyes. These people are so jealous that they want to strangle you.

Arthur, it seems that you can't climb too fast! Always make enemies on all sides. Why don't we think of a way to start first and teach them a lesson? ”

But Arthur was already immune to the Red Devil's provocation.

If he really did what Agareth wanted, he would have probably killed a battalion from four years ago to now.

He barely managed to cope with the great hospitality of the old police inspectors, but fortunately, after the police inspectors left Scotland Yard, they were not long after they returned to their respective police districts in the public carriages.

Arthur let out a sigh of relief, but before he could adjust his mood, Elder, who had been waiting across Scotland Yard for a long time, was already greeted with a smile on his face.

Elder took out two tickets from his pocket and shook them in front of Arthur: "Arthur, what do you see here?" Tickets for lectures at the Royal Society! It took a lot of effort for me to snatch it from my cousin. ”

Arthur, of course, knew the subtext of the kid, and he raised his hand to stop a passing public carriage.

"I know, I'll cover all of your meals today."

Elder followed Arthur into the carriage and laughed, "Righteous enough!" But I won't let you suffer. Didn't you tell me to look for lectures in chemistry and pharmacology?

This time, I can find out that today's speaker is a very famous chemist. Sure to make you satisfied! ”

The carriage staggered to start, and Arthur's head swayed with it.

"Elder you have to be sure this time. I still remember the first time you took me to a small theater to see a play, and I thought it was good to see some fine art, but in fact the content of the performance seemed to be uncivilized. ”

Elder coughed cheekily when he heard this.

"Arthur! If art is not art, doesn't it still depend on what kind of eyes you use to look at it?

You have to look at it dialectically with a critical eye, and the beautiful ladies are too poor to wear blouses, what does this mean?

There must be something wrong with the functioning of our society! ”

Arthur glanced at him, "That's why you disappeared immediately after watching the show?"

It's true that something is wrong with society, but your brain doesn't have any brains.

If you go to prostitution, you will go to prostitution, the key is still a male prostitute, and the male prostitute will forget it, and let your aunt catch it, and in the end, it is not that Lao Tzu will help you catch you! ”

When Elder heard Arthur reveal his scars, he was furious and said, "Arthur! I don't care about you! I didn't know it was a man before I went! Who doesn't know that sodomy is a felony, but I'm a law-abiding citizen! ”

"Can law-abiding citizens go into the smuggling business?"

"Can that be the same? Smuggling is a big deal, hang me, sentence me to sodomy, you are trying to humiliate me! ”

Arthur looked at Elder with a righteous look on his face, and sighed softly: "Don't mention the previous things, this time I go back to the Royal Society to listen to lectures, you will never give me some criticism questions, right?" ”

"Where can it be......"

Elder was about to open his mouth for two words, but before he could speak, he saw Arthur remove the quick handcuffs from his cowhide belt.

Arthur stared at the handcuffs and said to himself, "I really can't catch you about smuggling." But if you're at the Royal Society to engage in obscene pornography ......"

When Elder heard this, he hurriedly raised his hand in surrender and saluted Arthur.

"Don't mess around! I took you there this time, but I really want to, without any personal desires. This was really a chemistry lecture. That scientist was famous, I remember it called...... What is it called...... Michael Michael's what's ...... for?"

Arthur asked tentatively, "Michael Jackson?" ”

When Elder heard this, he slapped his thigh and shouted, "That's right! It seems to be Michael Jackson, I'll just say he's famous, you see you all know him! ”

Arthur took a deep breath: "Elder. ”

Elder looked happy: "What? You don't have to thank me, you can just treat me to dinner. ”

"I'm going to cuff you today!"

"Alas! Arthur! You're hands-on! ”

The horse-drawn carriage drove slowly through the streets, through the people and alleys of London, and it was not known how long it took to finally arrive at its current destination, Greysham College in north-east London.

The doors opened, and Held, whose hands were handcuffed behind him, stumbled out of the car.

He staggered two steps forward, his nose almost hitting the vermilion brick wall of the academy.

Arthur politely took off his hat and thanked the coachman, then took two shillings out of his pocket and handed them over.

"It's not easy to take a taxi here, so please wait for us here for two hours, and then we need to take your car, and we will pay double the price for the return trip."

The coachman was happy to make the easy money, and he took off his hat and saluted, "No problem, Mr. Officer." ”

Arthur had just gotten out of the car, and before he could stand firmly on the ground, he heard Elder roar in anger.

"Arthur! You see what this is? I just said that today's keynote speaker is Michael, you still don't believe it! ”

Arthur looked up, and Elder was in front of a board that introduced the speaker of the day's lecture.

He jumped up and down angrily, and his mouth was not very clean: "You fuck, why don't you untie my handcuffs quickly." Most of the people who come to the lecture are London ladies, and if you let them see me like this, how can I find a chance to spend time with them in the future? ”

Arthur glanced around and saw that Elder was right.

Although it was still early, there were already many carriages parked outside the gate of Grey Sam College, and ladies and ladies wearing beautiful pleated skirts and silk white gloves could be seen everywhere.

Some of them, supported by the private coachman, walked out of the carriage with their long skirts, and a servant with a small broom on the side cleaned up the horse manure and garbage on the side of the road, so as not to defile her white and beautiful long dress.

Others hold a fan to cover their mouths and get together with familiar friends to chat.

Others glanced at Elder nonchalantly, and couldn't help but smile with a hint that made Young Master Elder extremely angry.

Arthur also knew that he couldn't let him lose face at this time, otherwise this kid would no longer pay attention to him for half a year.

He stepped forward and expertly pressed Held's wrist down, and the handcuffs returned to his hands.

Elder twisted his reddened wrist and then pointed at the display board beside him and scolded Arthur.

"Arthur, look at what is written on it? You see, today's speaker: Michael Faraday! ”
