Chapter 145 Chapter 145 [Conspiracy]
When Lin Yi Mu returned to school, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. The two said goodbye at the school gate, and Lin Yi Mu walked quickly towards the dormitory building.
Lin Yi Mu returned to the dormitory. Wang Yi, Shi Mengyun and Jiang Zan all looked in the direction of Lin Yi Mu when they heard the door open. When Lin Yi Mu looked at them, they surrounded him with gossipy eyes.
"What are you doing?" Lin Yimu asked suspiciously at the three people who surrounded him.
The three of them were no longer reserved after hearing this. They just surrounded him with smiles. Wang Yi asked with a gossipy look on his face, "What do you think? Who did you go out to eat with today? Was it a mature, handsome, elite man who drove a luxury car?"
Lin Yimu couldn't help but twitch his lips when listening to Wang Yi's description of He Xiuji. For some reason, when he heard the adjective "mature, handsome and elite man", the image that appeared in Lin Yimu's mind was a man with a slicked-back hair, gold-rimmed glasses and a black suit.
Of the above descriptions, the only thing that fits He Xiuji's description is that he is wearing a black suit; the rest are completely irrelevant.
After getting rid of the image in his mind, Lin Yimu looked at the three people who were looking for gossip with eyes full of doubt and asked, "How did you know? He is indeed a man, but the description is not quite accurate."
"Oh, then what is your relationship?" Wang Yi continued to gossip.
Lin Yimu looked at the three helplessly but he was not angry, because when he followed He Xiuji away, he had already guessed this result, "We are good friends, just like the brotherly relationship with Yuan Mingxu and the others." He glanced at them and asked, "But how did you know the news?"
Jiang Zan's steady voice sounded, "The news has spread all over the school. So many people saw you getting into a luxury car with a man at the school gate, and the person involved is a famous figure like you, Lin Yimu."
Listening to Jiang Zan's teasing words, Lin Yimu rubbed his face and said, "Forget it, I knew there would be rumors, but I think they will be suppressed after a while if there is new news."
"Lord Lin, aren't you afraid that people will look at you strangely?" Shi Mengyun asked weakly.
Lin Yimu shook his head indifferently. He thought it through and didn't care anymore. He said calmly, "Let them see it as they please. I won't lose a piece of flesh anyway. Just like those haters who chased me and scolded me online before, I'm used to it and it's just like that."
After hearing Lin Yi Mu's explanation, the three of them also remembered that Lin Yi Mu had been on the hot search from time to time and was questioned and scolded by others. In comparison, this matter at school seemed to be nothing.
In addition, Lin Yimu usually does not communicate with others at school. He spends more time in the library, classroom, dormitory and laboratory. He does not pay attention to what others say about him.
After getting the answers they wanted, Wang Yi and the other two dispersed contentedly, while Lin Yimu put on his pajamas and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After Lin Yimu lay down on the bed, he soon fell asleep. In an instant, he arrived at Professor Wen’s classroom and began his daily non-repetitive learning journey. By the way, he also handed in the questions he had finished to Professor Wen for inspection.
Professor Wen looked at the problem that Lin Yimu had solved and finally gave him a satisfied look for the first time in a long time. "Not bad, not bad. You didn't disappoint me this time."
After Professor Wen finished speaking, he put the questions Lin Yimu had done aside and began today's formal lecture, while gradually deepening Lin Yimu's understanding of interstellar knowledge.
Lin Yimu listened carefully to Professor Wen's explanation, taking notes from time to time. When Lin Yimu was about to leave after the class, he heard Professor Wen suddenly say, "With your current knowledge, you don't need to waste time in college, so when do you plan to graduate?"
Lin Yimu was stunned when he heard Professor Wen's question. Although he knew that he didn't need to stay in school at all with his current level of knowledge, not to mention the knowledge instilled in him by the system every day and Professor Wen's guidance, he learned much more than in school, but Lin Yimu really didn't think about graduating early.
"Professor, I have never thought about graduating early. Although my knowledge has surpassed many people and I don't even need to study in school, there are too many things I need to learn. If I don't study in school, I will have no way to find a reason for all the things I know. So I still have to try my best to find a reason to learn all the projects I know in school." Lin Yimu hesitated for a while and finally told his plan.
When Professor Wen heard what Lin Yimu said, he frowned impatiently and said disdainfully, "So troublesome? Haven't you informed the upper echelons of your country? They should be able to help you solve this kind of problem."
Lin Yimu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and felt that it was not impossible, but it would have to wait until he completed the task released by the system not long ago, so that he would have the confidence to do it. Otherwise, when he completed the credits and graduated, if he encountered something that needed to be consulted by the professor, it would not be easy to go to the national father every time.
Thinking of this, Lin Yimu had some plans in mind, and said with a smile: "Professor, let's wait until I complete the task issued by the system before. I have to leave a way out for myself."
"It's up to you. It's your own business anyway."
Professor Wen seemed to have just mentioned it casually, and after Lin Yimu gave the answer, he didn't care that much.
Lin Yimu didn't think much about it. After talking with the professor, he left the classroom, wanting to have a good rest and recuperate.
Although he studied in his sleep every night and did not feel too tired physically, he would still feel a little mentally tired after a long time, which made him very uncomfortable.
After all, the system had given him the ability to not get tired, and he hadn't felt the powerlessness of mental fatigue for a long time.
After a good night's sleep, Lin Yimu woke up early in the morning to a call from Professor Zheng from the School of Physics, who urgently called him to his office.
"Professor Zheng, you, you are so anxious to call me here. Is there something wrong?" Lin Yimu ran all the way to the office and asked after taking a breath.
Professor Zheng looked at Lin Yimu who was running out of breath and said quickly, "It's not a big deal. Sit down and take a breath. Look how anxious you are. It's my fault for not explaining it clearly."
Lin Yimu obediently sat down on the chair opposite Professor Zheng's desk. After he had recovered his breath, he spoke again, "Professor, you just said on the phone that there was something important and asked me to come quickly. Now you say it's not urgent. What is it?"
Seeing Lin Yimu's puzzled look, Professor Zheng did not keep him in suspense, but said seriously: "It is about your physics paper, and it is mainly about the algorithm."
Seeing Professor Zheng's serious look, Lin Yimu didn't understand what the problem was with his algorithm paper, so he asked in confusion: "Is there any problem with my paper on turbulence algorithm?"
Professor Zheng shook his head, then nodded, which made Lin Yimu even more confused.
Then, Professor Zheng spoke with a hint of barely perceptible disgust in his voice, "Some time ago, a media outlet in Country M reported that a scholar in their country who was engaged in aerospace research had become mentally ill because his paper was stolen. According to the report, the content of the other party's paper focused on the latest turbulence algorithm, but the day after he calculated the results and wanted to publish them on arXIV, the paper he had saved in his computer disappeared, leaving only some fragmentary manuscripts left over from his calculations."
At this point, Professor Zheng, who is a very kind and good-tempered old man in life, couldn't help but reveal a sarcastic expression. Seeing Lin Yimu's surprised expression as if he had guessed something, he continued, "Speaking of this, I think you should have guessed it. It was written in the interview section of the other party's report. The day after the other party's paper disappeared, an identical paper was uploaded to arXIV, but it was signed by you, Lin Yimu. Not long after, your paper was published in an SCI Zone II journal. After seeing the news, the other party went crazy and said everywhere that the paper was his."
"But because I was a researcher from a poor family and had no interpersonal relationships, I had no place to talk about this matter. Gradually, I became a little nervous. Or maybe a kind-hearted person couldn't stand it so he asked this media from Country M to help report this matter." At this point, Professor Zheng's eyes were filled with disdain.
Then he looked at Lin Yimu, whose expression had returned to normal but whose brows were still furrowed, and said, "How coincidental! This matter was not exposed earlier or later, but just when the research center was reviewing your award. Especially the mathematical conjecture paper you uploaded to arXIV two days ago. I think the research center is also trying to apply for bonuses and awards for you. Such a scandal appeared at this time. Whether it is true or false, your bonuses and awards are likely to be stuck. Even more seriously, if the association is more cautious for the sake of its own reputation, it will directly eliminate you."
When Lin Yimu heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly. It was not because he might not be selected for the prize as the professor mentioned, although he would be very happy to get the prize. But what Lin Yimu disliked even more was the other party's dirty tricks that were obviously a frame-up.
He really didn't expect that after quitting the entertainment industry, he would still be exposed to such shameful and disgusting means, especially in the scientific research community which he considered to be very sacred. He always thought that people engaged in scientific research simply liked to speak with their knowledge and strength.
This realization made Lin Yimu, who already disliked the United States, turn directly into disgust because of this incident. He even gave up the idea of going to Princeton for further studies that he had previously thought of.
