Cavendy has made a promise!

The others' eyes moved back and forth between Lu Shi and Cavendish, and their heads swayed slightly, as if they were watching a table tennis match.

When the land is as cold as ice,

"Mr. Supervisor has something to say. Let me compare it to Mr. James, what is it like? ”

His fingers swept over the spine of the books on the shelves, and pulled one out of it,

It is the first volume of "No One Left Alive" by the Royal Publishing Bureau.

Lu Shi said: "Than sales? ”

Then, he took out another copy of "Guns, Germs and Steel", shook it in front of Cavendish and played with his voice: "Of course~ Maybe the professor at Cambridge doesn't pay much attention to sales, so ...... Let's compare word of mouth? ”

Cambridge invited Lu Shi, isn't it because of Lu Shi's works?

Compared with Lu Shi, I'm afraid I want to eat a fart.

Cavendish unconsciously strained his hands,

He was arranging the brim of his hat, which was slightly deformed, turning the bowler into a bucket hat.

Lu Shi snorted coldly,

"No."

This word is equivalent to "sending off guests".

Cavendish flicked his gloves sharply,

The glove hits the air, making a hunting wind.

This gesture is very impolite in Europe.

Lu Shi said: "What? What else does Mr. Supervisor have to say? ”

Cavendish replied: "Mr. Lu seems to be very confident, and since this is the case, it is really better to compare with the other." James's Tales of Monsters is a very good fantasy novel in my opinion, and Mr. Lu can write such a work? ”

Fantasy novels?

This is obviously unfair to say,

Natsume Soseki opened his mouth,

As a result, before he could open his mouth, Phyllis on the side took the lead in speaking: "The popular novels written by Professor Lu are detective adventures, and they can't be compared with fantasy novels!" ”

Everyone was stunned and looked at this fourteen-year-old girl in amazement.

Dale reacted,

"Phyllis, are you crazy!?"

The Chancellor of the University of Cambridge is not something that ordinary people can afford to mess with.

Only then did Phyllis realize what he had just done, and his little face suddenly turned into a red apple,

She didn't know where she got the courage, but when she saw Lu Shi being bullied by Cavendish just now, she was impulsive, and she didn't even think about it, so she scolded Cavendish fiercely.

The girl stuck out her tongue cutely and raised my face to cover it.

My generation slept soundly,

It woke up in a daze, looked left and right,

"Meow?"

The girl and the cat seemed so beautiful that the grim atmosphere in the house was lightened.

Although Cavendish felt disdain in his heart, he also had to admit that the appearance of the girl and the cat had brought him back to his senses more or less.

He took back the gentleman's shelf and said, "Mr. Lu, farewell." ”

With that, he walked towards the door.

However, Lu Shi didn't intend to let him leave just like that,

"Mr. Supervisor is really interesting, it was you who came without telling me, and you were the one who lost your temper and left. How? In your eyes, is it possible to get all out of London unblocked? Do you dare to visit Buckingham Palace like that? ”

The temperature in the room seemed to be a full ten degrees lower.

Cavendish froze for a moment, then turned his head, unwilling to even maintain the smile on his face,

"Does Mr. Lu have any advice?"

Lu Shi sat in the chair, his fingers playing with the corner of the first volume of "No One Survived",

The hardcover books are of excellent quality, with a slight rustling sound that makes them unusually harsh in a quiet room.

Cavendish can't stand the current situation,

He spoke again,

"Mr. Lu, may I ask, you, yet, have, what, what, point, teach?"

The word was squeezed out almost from between the teeth.

Lu Shi smiled,

"Just now, Mr. Superintendent seemed to want to make a bet with me on Mr. James's behalf. I'm curious, have you done this kind of thing? ”

I really have to bet on it.

Cavendish narrowed his eyes and said, "We Cambridgers are never afraid of challenges. However, as the beautiful young lady said, James has always written fantasy novels, mainly stories of strange things, and I am afraid that Mr. Lu ...... Humph......"

James mainly writes horror stories,

But at the beginning of the 20th century, horror stories were not classified as fantasy stories.

Lu Shi groaned for a moment,

"That's better than fantasy."

Natsume Soseki couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the typewriter on the table,

Next to it, there is "The Mystery of Roger" that Lu Shi just completed, which can't be considered a fantasy novel no matter how you look at it.

Cavendish didn't expect Lu Shi to abandon his martial arts,

He even praised Lu Shi's courage a little in his heart, but at the same time he felt that Lu Shi was stupid,

Chinese may be able to write ghost novels,

And can write well,

But that thing doesn't have soil in Europe at all.

As for the fantasy novels that Europeans like, the Chinese will never be able to write because of the lack of cultural heritage.

Cavendish said, "Than what? ”

Lu Shi smiled,

"Whatever, than sales, than word of mouth...... Or something else, just come. ”

Cavendish nodded slowly,

"Well, in that case, I'll wait for Mr. Landing's masterpiece. If Mr. Lu loses, then speak publicly...... Not...... Our bet was a secret conversation, without damaging our reputation, and naturally there was nothing to apologize for. So let's do it, if Mr. Lu loses, it would be better to openly express his yearning for Cambridge University. ”

When the time comes, it is really to give Lu Shi an honorary degree,

Or sternly refuse, take the opportunity to humiliate,

It's all in Cavendish at a moment's notice.

With that, he turned to leave.

Lu Shi stopped him: "Why is Mr. Supervisor so anxious, I haven't asked for it yet." ”

Cavendish was in a hurry to leave not on purpose, because he didn't think in his head that James would lose.

He stopped,

"Mr. Lu, please speak, I'll listen to you."

Lu Shi groaned,

After a long time, he said, "Well, if Mr. James loses, you Cambridge University will openly ask me to give a lecture in the newspapers." ”

This bet is very similar to that of Cavendish Sh, with both advances and retreats, leaving a way out.

Cavendish admired Lu Shi more and more in his heart,

"Then it's a deal!"

He had already thought about it, and when Lu Shi lost this bet, he would play a magnanimous role, standing up as an old-timer to criticize Lu Shi's arrogance first, and then throwing an olive branch and inviting Lu Shi to enter Cambridge.

Between a dozen and a pull, Lu Shi will be convinced and bow.

Cavendish thought of that scene, and couldn't help but feel slightly proud, and even the unhappy mood just now was diluted, and he walked to the door with a smile,

"Mr. Lu, in order to win, Cambridge will use various methods, even including the media."

Lu Shi does not give an inch,

"Me too."

"Hahahaha!"

Cavendish gripped the doorknob and said, "No need to send it." ”

Of course, no one sent him.

He pushed the door open.

With a "squeak", the room was calm again.

Lu Shi turned to West and said, "Mr. West, if Mr. Bridges also wants to try my catty, then ...... Welcome. ”

West touched his nose in embarrassment,

He knew that Lu Shi was a poet, and he was an outstanding poet, whether it was "One Generation" or "Answer", it was an extremely rare masterpiece.

Bridges and Lu Shi are head-to-head, and they are likely to be beaten into slag.

West said: "Mr. Lu, to be honest, after seeing your performance just now, I know that you are a soft eater...... Ahem...... I knew you were a cautious, sincere person, and that I had just acted too rudely. ”

As he spoke, West bowed to Lu Shi,

"I sincerely apologize here."

That's a good attitude.

Lu Shi chuckled,

"I thought I was going to write another poem~"

The corners of West's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly said goodbye to Lu Shi and walked out of the door.
