Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl
Chapter 36 Lawrence
Although Wang Chen knew who the traitor in Lawrence's family was, arresting someone required evidence. Even if he caught the person with a bird's-eye view, if he couldn't explain it clearly, it would make everyone suspicious.
"Eula, I heard that the Lawrence family has always been at odds with the Knights, but you joined the Knights. Are you sure it's not your fault that you don't know the location of the Sky Harp?"
"Before I joined the Knights, I successfully passed the family training. I don't think I would not know the information that the younger generation should know. If I had left the family for a few years..."
Just as Eula said, Wang Chen knew that she was one of the few people who had passed the Lawrence family trial over the years. The "Seal of Solid Ice", the supreme symbol of the Lawrence family's military power, was in Eula's hands. Moreover, Eula was the eldest daughter of the family. It was no exaggeration to say that she was the representative of the younger generation of the family.
It is precisely because of this that Eula's joining the Knights Templar aroused strong opposition from the family. If it were someone else, the Lawrence family might not even bother to care.
"Don't you have any younger friends in your family? Are there any reliable ones? Let's find someone to confirm it."
"Well……"
"You don't have any friends at home?"
"You actually look down on me, this——"
"I will remember this grudge."
"You!" Eula felt that this person must have heard about this from somewhere and was now trying to trick her. "Humph! Who said I don't have friends? I can find one before lunch. Let's meet at the Deer Hunter at noon and disband now!"
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news."
The beautiful woman with ice-blue hair ran away, and Wang Chen turned back to the Knights.
As the institution that issues identity certificates for Mond's newborn babies and as a rival to the Lawrence family, the Knights' archives certainly include the Lawrence family's files. However, Wang Chen does not have the identity to enter, so he can only ask Lisa for help.
"There are a lot of people in the recent generations of the Lawrence family. That's a lot to write about."
"As long as they are the main family members of Eula's generation and the previous generation."
"Okay, just wait a moment."
Lisa took out a notebook and wrote down some names of the Lawrence family as Wang Chen requested.
"This is Eula's father, the current head of the Lawrence family. He is the eldest among his brothers. These are his three younger brothers and two younger sisters, who are Eula's uncle and aunt."
Lisa marked the relationship between each character and Eula for Wang Chen, then tore off the paper and handed it to Wang Chen, "According to your request, only the main branch of the Lawrence family was written."
Wang Chen learned that Eula was the oldest among the new generation of the main line of the family. She had no brothers or sisters, but she had many cousins. Among her three uncles, only the youngest uncle was not married, and this uncle was Schubert who appeared in the game.
After reading it quietly, Wang Chen got the news he wanted. He also read a book in the library. When the agreed time was approaching, he rushed to the Deer Hunter. As a result, Eula and the friend she was looking for had not arrived yet.
"Miss Sarah, what do you think of the Lawrence family?"
"Eh, me?"
Facing the abrupt questions from the recent frequent visitors, Sarah answered truthfully: "I used to think that the Lawrence family was abominable. They were clearly a declining family that had made mistakes, but they still acted so high and mighty, fantasizing that they could return to the old Mondstadt era and boss people around."
"Isn't that what I've seen?"
Sarah shook her head, as if she had thought of something happy. She responded to Wang Chen with a smile and said, "That was in the past. People didn't even want to sell things to the Lawrence family, including me..."
Sarah looked a little guilty when she said this.
"But ever since Lawrence joined the Knights and saved me, I realized that Lawrence is not always a pedantic and stubborn person. Unfortunately, everyone's impression of Lawrence is deeply rooted, and not everyone can realize it in time."
"The Lawrence who joined the Knights, is that Eula?"
"Yes."
"So what do you think of the other young people in Lawrence?"
"Although I'm not as familiar with them as Eula, I've also observed them since then. They are much better than their parents anyway."
"That's great."
During the conversation, Eula finally came over with a girl with light blue hair.
"Eula, you are late. I will remember this grudge."
"Pfft~"
Hearing Wang Chen imitating Eula's catchphrase, Sarah and the girls brought by Eula couldn't help but laugh.
"Hmph, you dare to laugh at me, this grudge..." Eula said halfway subconsciously, and then forced herself to hold back the rest of the words and glared at Wang Chen fiercely.
Sarah looked at Wang Chen and Youla, "Okay, okay, you two know each other."
Youla tilted her head and said with some emotion: "We just met today, we are not familiar with each other."
You are my first character with a second life. It makes me sad to hear you say this.
"Stop it, Eula. Aren't we old acquaintances? Just order whatever you want. This time it's my treat."
Youla and the other two just thought that Wang Chen was speaking against them.
"Then I won't be polite. Vera, order whatever you want. There are rich people here to pay for it."
"hey-hey."
After selecting a few of the Deer Hunter’s most expensive dishes, the three of them sat down.
"Hello, the single person, my name is Vera, and I'm Sister Eula's younger sister."
Vera Lawrence was the third daughter of Robert Lawrence, the third oldest of four brothers of Eula's father's generation. Lisa did not write her age, but in Wang Chen's opinion, she was about fifteen or sixteen years old and very pretty.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from Steambird Newspaper. I've heard of the Mond Lawrence family for a long time, and I came all the way here to interview you."
"really?"
Before coming here, Sister Eula only said that she had a friend who wanted to have a meal together. When I asked her what friend, she hesitated. I wondered who the friend was. Sister Eula, who hadn't been home for several years, was willing to come to see me, even though she just stood outside the gate of the manor and didn't want to go in...
Vera looked at Eula with a slightly puzzled look and found that Eula also had her eyes wide open.
"Really. I'm here to talk about the unfair treatment the Lawrence family is receiving in Mond. I heard that you can't even buy food in restaurants or grocery stores, and you have to farm and hunt for food."
“That’s the case.”
"Then I am the messenger of justice who comes to save you with public opinion."
Vera pouted and thought that Sister Eula was a very special friend.
When she looked at Eula again, she found that Eula had closed her eyes, sitting upright, and completely keeping herself out of the matter.
"No, no, no, it's not the world that's wrong, it's Lawrence. When Sister Eula joined the Knights, I didn't understand so much, but later I understood that if Lawrence is unwilling to humble himself and integrate into the masses, this situation will never change."
Vera glanced at Eula secretly again and continued, "Lawrence and normal society are like two parallel lines. It was Sister Eula who made this line of Lawrence have a small angle."
Eula opened her eyes in surprise. When she joined the Knights several years ago, she felt that no one in her family supported her, including her parents. Later, she moved into the dormitory assigned by the Knights, and she became a stranger to her family and basically lost contact with them.
I didn't expect my cousin to see me like this. Now that I think about it, the people in charge of the family are all old men, and young people may not be able to express their ideas even if they have them. But this is enough. This small perspective will eventually bring Lawrence back on track.
Vera lowered her head in embarrassment. "Actually, I am very shy to say this in front of Sister Eula, but this is what I really think, and it is also the opinion of many of my peers. The young people in the family have been deeply persecuted because of the name of Lawrence. When our generation comes to power, we will definitely change this situation."
"So... the person you should interview is not us, but Sister Eula. She is the one who set an example for the young people in the family."
Seeing Vera's sincere eyes, Wang Chen endured the inner condemnation after deceiving the little girl.
"Ahem, actually I said this just to test you and see if you can become our comrade."
"What comrade?"
"Comrade of the Lawrence Family Association for Improving Relations with the General Public."
“Is there still such an organization?”
"Yes, Eula is the president and I am the vice president. Right, Eula."
When Wang Chen winked at Youla, he saw a sentence in Youla's eyes: You actually made me lie, I will remember this grudge!
Eula nodded.
Vera seemed very happy. "So Sister Eula is here to recruit me into the club?"
Wang Chen crossed his arms across his chest, trying to appear more dignified, and answered for Eula: "You have to prove your usefulness first."
"I don't have the Eye of God. If I were to fight a monster, I would have to retreat."
Wang Chen felt that this little girl was very smart. This tactic of retreating to advance blocked the way for her to do hard labor. Unlike a certain traveler and her flying pet, they did not know how to refuse.
