Chapter 112 Chapter 112 [A Flash of Inspiration]
After washing up, Lin Yimu sat at the table, took out a piece of draft paper and started writing quickly, not caring that he almost hit his head just now.
Lin Yimu looked intently at the calculation formula that was being written out slowly under his pen. He couldn't put pen to paper because he didn't know what went wrong. His brows were furrowed in distress.
After worrying about the draft paper for a while, Lin Yimu crossed out the calculation formula on the paper with an irritated look, and then crumpled the draft paper and threw it into the trash can.
Looking at the brand new draft paper on the table, Lin Yimu sighed softly. For a moment he didn't know how to start. He unconsciously wrote down the data that he had memorized on the draft paper. When Lin Yimu came to his senses, he realized what he had written.
Looking at the data on the paper, Lin Yimu was about to cross it out in annoyance, but stopped because he was unwilling to give up. After thinking for a long time, Lin Yimu decided to recalculate it himself.
Lin Yimu picked up the pen again and started to check. The calculation data at the beginning were consistent with the previous calculations. He kept checking along the train of thought and the conclusion he came to was still the same as in the laboratory. There was no mistake, but he had no way to proceed to the next step of calculation.
Lin Yi Mu looked at the draft paper filled with his own writing, and thought about the data that had previously made him feel strange. He picked up the pen to calculate again, but there was still no change. This made Lin Yi Mu really confused, and he looked at the formula he had written with a face full of bitterness and resentment.
Until late at night, Lin Yimu still had no results, and under 001's persuasion he had no choice but to go to bed.
The next morning, Lin Yimu, who had stayed up late, came to the laboratory still in high spirits. As soon as he walked in, he found that everyone had arrived, and everyone had red eyes. It was obvious that they must have stayed up late the night before. On the contrary, Lin Yimu, this energetic guy, stood out among the crowd.
"It seems that my junior had a good rest yesterday. He looks very energetic." A researcher who passed by Lin Yimu spoke slowly, his tone full of resentment.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yimu turned to look at the person who spoke and found that not only were his eyes red and bloodshot, but he also had two very conspicuous dark circles under his eyes, looking very listless.
Noticing this phenomenon, Lin Yimu asked with some concern: "Senior, what's wrong with you? Did you not sleep all night?"
The boy who was called senior rolled his eyes in an inelegant manner, then looked at Lin Yi Mu who looked energetic and full of spirit in front of him, sighed and said worriedly: "How can I sleep? Judging from the situation yesterday, I estimate that most of the people in the lab didn't sleep, and only you could sleep. While you haven't officially become a scientific research dog yet, cherish your few complete sleeps, it will be difficult in the future!" As he said this, he patted Lin Yi Mu's shoulder with emotion, looking like a person who has experienced it.
Lin Yimu felt the heavy force coming from his shoulder and gave a standard fake smile, saying: "Senior Brother, I suspect you are jealous that I can sleep, so you are taking revenge on me now." Then he put his hand on his shoulder and rubbed it gently a few times.
The other party looked at Lin Yimu like this and laughed, "Sorry, sorry, I was too heavy-handed. Are you okay?"
Lin Yimu waved his hand to indicate that everything was fine, but then he thought that everyone might have not slept all night because of the experiment, and he was a little worried about whether everyone could hold on.
"Brother He, you didn't sleep all night, can you make it through the whole day?"
The young man whom Lin Yi Mu called Senior Brother He heard this, glanced at Lin Yi Mu's radiant face, took a deep breath and said: "It's okay, we are used to it, and I believe that you will get used to it in the future." As he said this, he gave Lin Yi Mu a gloating smile.
Looking at the other party's gloating smile, Lin Yimu was speechless for a while. Although he knew that the other party was telling the truth, he still felt that his worries were in vain. He immediately stopped paying attention to the other party and turned around to continue thinking about the problem of the data model.
At noon, Lin Yimu and his companions still hadn't solved the problem, so they could only sigh and go to the cafeteria to eat.
While eating, Lin Yimu saw Yuan Mingxu who was also eating. After greeting each other, the two sat together to eat, but they sighed together as soon as they sat down.
Hearing the noise, both of them looked up at each other and found that they both had a worried look on their faces, so they knew that the work progress might not be going smoothly.
"What's going on over there? Why are you sighing after just a few days of not seeing you?" Finally, it was Lin Yimu who broke the silence and asked.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Mingxu glanced at Lin Yimu and asked, "Don't just blame me. You too have your brows furrowed as much as my dad's. What's wrong? Did the experiment not go well?"
Lin Yimu poked at the food on his plate and said helplessly, "You've seen it all. Professor Zheng and his team have encountered a bottleneck recently. The data on the flow field model is correct no matter how they calculate it, but when they try to continue with the next step according to the original idea, they just can't calculate it. That's fine, but we have calculated it over and over again, but we still haven't found a result."
Lin Yimu took a bite of his rice after he finished speaking. He felt a little annoyed. He then glanced at Yuan Mingxu who was also in a bad mood and said, "What about you? Aren't you studying with Professor Jiang's students? Why don't you look well?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Mingxu also sighed and didn't even want to eat. "Everything was fine before, but these past two days the seniors have been very irritable because the project has not made any progress. And as a non-staff member, I am too conspicuous, so I was bullied a few times."
At this point, Yuan Mingxu thought of what the two seniors said. Although he was very unhappy, he also knew that this matter had nothing to do with Lin Yimu and did not want it to affect their relationship, so he smiled and said, "But you don't have to worry. I'm not the kind of person who will endure it after being offended. I blocked it back on the spot, but there may be some friction in the future."
Lin Yimu frowned as he listened to Yuan Mingxu's words, and asked in confusion, "It's wrong for the other party to take it out on you. Didn't Professor Jiang take care of this matter?"
"Professor Jiang had no idea about it. He was not in the laboratory at the time," Yuan Mingxu explained.
Lin Yimu was still very unhappy. Although he knew that Yuan Mingxu would face difficulties when joining the laboratory, he also believed that with Yuan Mingxu's ability, he would definitely be able to have a good ending. Yuan Mingxu had indeed done a good job over the past few days, but he didn't know what the conflict with the two seniors was about this time.
Lin Yimu looked at Yuan Mingxu, who had already adjusted his mood, and couldn't help asking, "What's going on between you and those two seniors? What did they say that made a lazy guy like you unable to hold back and retort on the spot?"
Yuan Mingxu lowered his eyes when he heard that, and recalled the malicious mocking words of the two seniors.
"How can you, a guy who got in through the back door, be qualified to enter our laboratory and even have Professor Jiang personally bring you here?"
"Can't you see we are all busy? Not only can you not help at all, but you are also an eyesore! You are obviously friends with Lin Yimu, so why don't you have half the ability as him!"
"If he had that ability, would he still need to ask Lin Yimu for help? I'm afraid he would have gone to Professor Zheng in the Physics Department like that guy, so why would he bother with us?"
"If you can't help, just go away and stop being an eyesore. I don't know what the professor was thinking, but once Lin Yimu asked, he actually kept the person here."
…
Lin Yimu looked at Yuan Mingxu who was in a daze, and was a little worried about his condition, so he said, "Yuan Mingxu! Yuan Mingxu! What are you thinking about?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Yuan Mingxu's eyes.
Yuan Mingxu, who was called back to his senses by Lin Yimu, put away his emotions and smiled to change the subject: "Nothing, I was just thinking about whether I should talk to my uncle about moving to the school. After all, the weather has been bad recently and it's troublesome to run back and forth."
Seeing him change the subject, Lin Yimu knew that he didn't want to talk about it, but Lin Yimu was really worried about Yuan Mingxu's condition, and said with some concern: "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it, but you have to remember that you still have a friend like me in Beijing University. Even if we can't do anything, it's better to have someone to talk to than to be alone."
Yuan Mingxu looked at the person in front of him who was looking at him with concern, and suddenly felt that he really shouldn't have become resentful of his friend just because of a few words from others. It was a bit petty.
After thinking it through, Yuan Mingxu looked at Lin Yimu, who was seriously worried, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I really have something to do, I will definitely come to you, and I won't be polite with you."
After he finished speaking, Yuan Mingxu suddenly wanted to tease Lin Yimu, so he said with a teasing smile: "But, I didn't expect that you care about me so much? Don't you have other intentions?"
As soon as Yuan Mingxu finished speaking, Lin Yimu didn't know why a pair of eyes as cold as cold stars flashed through his mind, which made him slightly stunned. After reacting, he pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly and said, "What nonsense! As a friend, is it wrong for me to care about you? Okay, I will definitely not care about you in the future, okay!"
Yuan Mingxu, who was secretly observing Lin Yimu from the side, saw Lin Yimu's reaction throughout the whole process. Now, seeing his stubborn look, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
However, thinking about the conversation between his uncle and the secretary that he had overheard before, Yuan Mingxu's originally excited mood suddenly cooled down, and he no longer had the mood to tease Lin Yimu.
But he still smiled ingratiatingly and replied, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. Our Lord Lin is the best. Don't bother with a little loser like me. It's my honor that you care about me."
Lin Yimu was speechless for a long time about Yuan Mingxu's change of attitude, but seeing that he was in a better mood, he didn't say anything.
However, Yuan Mingxu's subsequent words made Lin Yimu fall into deep thought.
"Hey, but what I just said was not a joke. The weather and temperature have been a bit unpredictable in recent days. I'm really thinking about asking my uncle to send someone to deliver my luggage to me, and I'll just live in the school."
Lin Yimu fell into deep thought after listening to Yuan Mingxu's words, because he suddenly thought of an important matter regarding the flow field simulation experiment.
Did they get the environmental factor data wrong when they were doing the simulation? After all, some specific factors in environmental conditions are changing every day.
After figuring this out, Lin Yimu stood up from his seat without even having time to explain anything to Yuan Mingxu. He just said, "I have something to do here, so I won't talk to you for now. Let's talk next time!" and left the cafeteria in a hurry.
