Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Lin Yimu’s thoughts and investigations…
Wan Hean heard what Lin Yimu said and asked with some interest: "Oh, feel free to ask any questions you have."
Lin Yimu hesitated for a while and said, "I would like to audit a class at the School of Mathematics of Yancheng University when I have time. Is that okay?" After saying that, Lin Yimu looked at Wan Hean with anticipation and nervousness, waiting for his reply.
In fact, Lin Yimu now finds it a bit difficult to study on his own. There are some parts in many professional books that he does not understand and it is difficult to find relevant auxiliary materials, so he brought up this now.
Another reason is that Lin Yimu has no way to contact the top leaders of the country, and the department he wants to attract attention has not appeared, so now he can only rely on himself.
After Lin Yi Mu finished speaking, Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai, who were sitting next to him, turned to look at Lin Yi Mu in surprise, and then, as if they had thought of something, they turned to look at Professor Wan with longing in their eyes.
When Wan Hean and Zhou Shaoyuan heard Lin Yimu's words, they didn't show any surprise at all. They even seemed a little bit expectant. Wan Hean even agreed immediately after Lin Yimu finished speaking.
Then, as if remembering something, he turned to look at Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai who were beside Lin Yimu with eager faces and said, "You can also go to the class with Lin Yimu." After saying this to the two of them, he turned to look at Lin Yimu with a kind smile and said, "Is this ok? Lin Yimu? Can you go get your manuscript now?"
Lin Yimu was very happy to hear Professor Wan's decision. He looked at Huang Minglei, who was also excited and happy, and nodded quickly and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll get it for you." After that, he ran towards the classroom without waiting for an answer.
When Lin Yimu ran back to the office, there were already several teachers sitting at their desks, talking to the math teacher and Professor Wan. After seeing Lin Yimu coming back, the math teacher Zhou Shaoyuan waved at him and said, "Are you back? Come here quickly. If you come back later, my tutor will have to go back."
Lin Yimu looked at Zhou Shaoyuan's anxious expression and smiled helplessly. Although he knew that the math teacher was doing this for his own good, he was not afraid that some students would say he was biased because of his anxious look.
But thinking that the math teacher was doing this for his own good, he shook off the random thoughts in his mind and hurried over to hand the manuscript to Professor Wan.
The teachers who were originally chatting saw this scene and realized that they had things to do, so they stopped talking and sat in their seats, busy correcting homework and preparing lessons.
Professor Wan, who got Lin Yi Mu's manuscript, carefully read it page by page. At first, he was curious but a little indifferent. After all, he didn't think a high school student could verify anything, even if this high school student was so outstanding that his peers were jealous.
But the further he turned the pages, the more serious Professor Wan's expression became, and his hands, which were holding the manuscript, were so tight that his knuckles turned white. By the time he turned to the last step in the manuscript that Lin Yimu was too troubled to continue, Professor Wan was so excited that his breathing became rapid and his face looked grim, as if he was about to faint.
Everyone present looked at Professor Wan with some concern, fearing that he would faint.
After a long while, Wan Hean finally calmed down, but still said excitedly: "Is this really your own verification process?"
Lin Yimu looked at the excited Professor Wan and nodded seriously.
Zhou Shaoyuan, who was standing at the side, also spoke up to prove for Lin Yimu: "Teacher, this is indeed his own manuscript, and he made it on the spot in class."
Professor Wan actually believed that this was Lin Yimu's manuscript. After all, this kind of mathematical conjecture process, which was only one important step away from being verified, would not be given away by anyone engaged in academics. They could gain a good reputation by directly publishing it in the Annals of Mathematics or directly compiling it into a paper and publishing it in SCI. How could they be willing to give it to a high school student?
So now he only asked that question subconsciously, but his eyes did not move away from the manuscript in his hand. He stared at it without blinking, as if what was written on it was not a messy calculation process, but a treasure map.
Seeing that Professor Wan was so engrossed, Lin Yimu did not interrupt him. He just sat next to Huang Minglei with a natural expression, talking to Huang Minglei in a low voice while waiting to answer Professor Wan's questions.
"You are really lucky this time. Professor Wan from the School of Mathematics at Yancheng University is a well-known figure in the academic world. He has also cooperated with the University of Science and Technology of China to study my country's aerospace engineering. He is the team leader in charge of calculating the data." Huang Minglei looked at Lin Yimu with envy as he told him about Professor Wan's deeds.
Lin Yimu listened to Huang Minglei's whispered narration with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He only knew that Teacher Zhou's tutor was a professor in the School of Mathematics at Yancheng University, but he didn't know that the other party was so amazing.
Being able to participate in national aerospace projects, does that mean that the other party can have access to senior national leaders?
Lin Yimu narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly felt that the request he had made before was a bit too light.
Maybe, I could ask Professor Wan to introduce him to me?
Just as Lin Yimu thought of this, he quickly suppressed the idea. A scholar like him who is so prestigious and has participated in a space project initiated by the country must be very tight-lipped and abide by the confidentiality regulations.
Moreover, if he rashly made this request, he would most likely be suspected, leaving people with the impression that he was eager for quick success and did not study hard. He might even be scolded and might not even have such an opportunity again in the future.
Of course, if he wants to consider these things when he has achieved success in his studies, that would be another matter. However, Lin Yimu simply does not have the patience to deal with the troubles that arise from time to time.
The only way to solve these troubles is to have a reliable backer to help him deal with them, and the only thing that can make him feel at ease is the country where he has lived for two lifetimes.
While thinking about these things, Lin Yimu did not forget to reply to Huang Minglei.
"How do you know it so clearly?" Lin Yimu wondered.
Huang Minglei whispered, "Have you forgotten my dream that I told you about? I am determined to engage in aerospace engineering research and development, so it is inevitable that I pay more attention to people and things in this field."
Lin Yimu nodded in understanding, sighed, and said in a somewhat annoyed tone: "I suddenly feel a little regretful."
"What do you regret?" Huang Minglei asked in confusion when he heard Lin Yimu's sigh.
Lin Yimu glanced at Professor Wan who was still reading the manuscript, frowned again and sighed, "I kind of regret that I only said I would go to the School of Mathematics to audit the class. It would have been great if I could ask Professor Wan if I had any difficult questions." His tone was full of regret.
Huang Minglei couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard Lin Yimu's shameless words. He rolled his eyes and said, "How dare you say that? It's already great to be able to attend the class as an auditor."
"I'm just talking. People should have dreams." Lin Yimu muttered in a low voice.
The two of them were talking to each other, while the math teacher and Professor Wan had finished discussing Lin Yimu's manuscript. Professor Wan put down the manuscript and said, "Student Lin Yimu, are you interested in studying at the School of Mathematics of Yancheng University? You can study for a Ph.D. degree under my guidance."
When Lin Yimu was talking to Huang Minglei, he was always paying attention to what was going on with Professor Wan and the math teacher. When he heard the question, he immediately stopped talking to Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai, turned around and said awkwardly, "Professor, although I'm very interested in math, I'm only in the first year of high school. I haven't decided whether to major in math, so I want to wait and see."
The math teacher and Professor Wan were a little surprised when they heard Lin Yimu's words. They didn't expect that Lin Yimu, who was so good at math, did not plan to major in math. This made them both a little anxious.
The math teacher said anxiously, "Lin Yimu, your math grades are so good, it would be a pity if you don't choose to specialize in math. Besides, the School of Mathematics at Yancheng University is the best department in Yancheng. You can study for a doctorate directly with my advisor, and then you can participate in important scientific research projects. How great is that."
In the math teacher's mind, Lin Yimu had such a great talent for math, coupled with his concentration in everything he did, that he was born to be a scientific researcher. How could he not choose math?
Wan Hean, on the other hand, did not react so strongly. He just shook his head with some regret, then looked at Lin Yimu and said, "Since you still want to think about it, I won't persuade you any more. After all, you may not be able to concentrate on studying a subject you don't like even if you choose it."
Then he thought for a while and said, "But considering your talent in mathematics, even if you don't choose to specialize in it in the end, don't relax. Mathematics is helpful for many subjects. You three kids can go to the School of Mathematics to audit classes when you have time." After saying that, he shook his head with regret in his eyes, said something to the mathematics teacher, and planned to return to Yancheng University.
When the math teacher saw that his tutor did not say anything more to persuade him, he gave up the idea of continuing to persuade Lin Yimu and just hurried to see his tutor off.
But when he was leaving the office, Professor Wan still felt a little regretful and couldn't help turning back to Lin Yimu and saying, "Student Lin Yimu, if you have any difficult questions about mathematical conjectures in the future, you can come to me directly or call me. Ask your math teacher for the phone number. Even if you don't choose math in the end, don't waste your talent."
At the end, Professor Wan couldn't help but give another reminder. He felt it was a pity, but he also knew that learning was up to him. Others couldn't help and might even blame him for it.
After Professor Wan left, the math teacher looked at Lin Yi Mu helplessly, sighed deeply, and gave Lin Yi Mu the tutor's phone number. Before Lin Yi Mu left, he couldn't help but call him and said, "Student Lin Yi Mu, think again about what subjects you want to study. With your talent, it would be a pity not to study math." As he said that, he couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Yimu asked Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai to go back to the classroom first, while he stood in front of the math teacher's desk and explained, "Teacher, I didn't say I didn't want to study math. I'm good at physics, chemistry, and biology, but I haven't found a subject I'm more interested in yet, so I still want to study them all together before that."
Upon hearing this, the math teacher suddenly didn't know what to say. After all, Lin Yimu was a student who was really talented in these subjects, and it seemed like it would be a pity to give up any of them.
Thinking of this, the math teacher sighed helplessly and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, alright, I get it. I won't persuade you anymore. Go back to class first."
…
After Lin Yimu walked out of the office and returned to the classroom, Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai gathered together excitedly talking about being able to audit classes at the university.
Seeing Lin Yimu coming back, Ye Yuankai quickly pulled him over and said excitedly: "Lin Yimu, you are amazing! If it weren't for you, we would have no chance to meet Professor Wan, and we can even audit the Yancheng Mathematics College. When are you going to go? Let's go together!"
Huang Minglei also looked at Lin Yimu with joy in his eyes, his face filled with inexplicable excitement.
Lin Yimu looked at the two of them, rubbed his forehead with a headache, and poured a bucket of cold water on them: "Don't be so excited for the time being, we only have time to audit the class on weekends, and we still have classes at other times, and we also have competition training classes to attend on weekends."
The two then remembered that they had competition training classes to attend even on weekends and had no free time to audit classes at Yancheng University. They couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.
Seeing the two of them getting frustrated again, Lin Yimu couldn't help but burst out laughing. After a while, under the glares of the two, he stopped and said, "It's okay, actually. We can talk to the math teacher at the weekend, and then we can sit in on a day's class at Yancheng University."
After Lin Yimu finished speaking, Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai looked at him speechlessly. After a long while, they said in unison: "That's enough. Are you trying to get us to skip class?"
Lin Yimu curled his lips: "How can this be considered skipping class? It's not considered skipping class if I told the math teacher about it, and he knows that we will be attending classes at Yancheng University."
Huang Minglei and Ye Yuankai both looked at him with contempt, turned around and prepared to attend class without paying any attention to him.
Lin Yimu sat in his seat, continuing to watch the professional storytelling that he had not finished reading before, but in his mind he was thinking about how to quickly resolve the situation of being chased and scolded.
But after thinking about it, there was really no better way except to tell the system to the top leaders of the country. Now, apart from showing off his sudden improvement in studies, there was nothing else he could do to attract other people's attention.
After all, he is just an ordinary person now. He has not been reborn into a person with a prominent family background, nor does he have extraordinary parents. Moreover, in the modern technological age, it is impossible for him to become extremely powerful right from the start and change his current situation.
It is simply impossible for him to study without worries, or even achieve such a lofty goal as making systematic contributions to the development of the country, by himself, so he can only look to the country for support.
Relying on the power of the country is much better than groping around on his own and failing to find many things, isn't it?
But until now the person he was waiting for had not shown up, which made Lin Yimu begin to doubt whether his approach was effective and whether it was correct.
Lin Yimu was flipping through the book and sighing silently. If he didn't attract the other party's attention, the online test would be in vain. In addition to reducing everyone's doubts, the number of people scolding him remained the same. What's more, many people even thought that he was impetuous and didn't study hard.
Lin Yimu sighed again in sorrow, and suddenly thought of 001 in his mind, so he complained to him: "001, what other ways do you think we can use to attract the attention of the relevant national departments? Not only did I waste my time on this exam, but it was also useless. Even now, the number of people scolding me has not decreased. I should have not agreed earlier."
001, who was watching the movie silently, rolled his eyes speechlessly when he heard Lin Yimu's words, "Didn't you say you had a solution before? Why are you complaining to me now?"
Seeing 001's rolling eyes, Lin Yimu sighed helplessly and said, "I didn't expect this. I thought that by showing my differences clearly, I could attract the attention of that department, but it's been two days and no one has come to see me." Then, Lin Yimu sighed sadly and continued, "Do you think I haven't shown it clearly enough?"
001 looked at the host with a sad face and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. He didn't expect that someone as smart as the host would encounter problems that he couldn't solve, and now he would come to him to sigh.
However, 001 just laughed secretly in its heart and didn't dare to show it at all. It had seen how evil the host was.
"It's only been two days, isn't it? Why are you in such a hurry? With the current technology on your Earth, if you want to obtain a person's biographical information, you still need to visit and inquire in person, so it's normal to be a little slow. Be patient and wait for two days, maybe the person you're waiting for will arrive tomorrow." 001 consoled perfunctorily while watching the movie without even raising his head.
Lin Yimu was so angry when he saw 001's attitude, but when he thought about it, he felt that what it said made sense, so he didn't feel so sad anymore. He even felt like teasing 001 who was so engrossed in watching the movie.
——————
In the office of Professor Wan in the School of Mathematics of Yancheng University, several men with serious faces were talking to Professor Wan who had just returned.
"Professor Wan, we are here just to ask a few questions. It's not a big deal, so you don't have to worry." A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and a serious temperament spoke in a very businesslike tone.
Wan Hean looked at the men in front of him with serious expressions. When he just entered the office, several people were already here. When he saw who they were, he was worried for a moment. But after hearing what they said, Professor Wan didn't really think it was a trivial matter. If it was really a trivial matter, they wouldn't appear here.
Then a trace of doubt arose in his mind. He wondered what could have caused these people to come to his house in person to ask him. He couldn't remember what he had done that required these people to come in person.
However, he still nodded calmly and said, "Captain Zheng, please ask any questions you have."
After getting permission, several people standing next to Captain Zheng, one took out a pen and paper to record, while another used a computer to record and also turned on a recorder.
Looking at their expressions, Professor Wan became even more confused. This didn't seem like a trivial matter at all.
"Professor Wan, I heard that you went to Yancheng No. 1 High School to meet Lin Yimu today. Do you think there is anything unusual about this student named Lin Yimu?" The middle-aged man asked directly about the purpose of this trip.
After hearing this question, Wan Hean's doubts deepened. However, he knew that it was not appropriate for him to ask about the matter they were investigating. He just said matter-of-factly, "According to the book written by my student, his math teacher, this student is a very talented student in math. He went from barely passing to first in the grade in just half a month. He almost proved a math conjecture before. He is a very polite and smart child."
After listening to Professor Wan's first impression of Lin Yimu, the people who were taking notes looked at each other with deep confusion and suspicion in their eyes.
After recording Professor Wan's information about Lin Yimu, Captain Zheng politely thanked Professor Wan and left, his steps seeming a little anxious.
After these people left, Professor Wan couldn't understand why they asked him about Lin Yimu. Was there something wrong with the child's identity?
Although he thought so, Professor Wan still said nothing. He was just a little worried in his heart whether something had happened to the child. Out of respect for talent, he still called his student to inquire about the situation.
After leaving Yancheng University, the middle-aged man and his group went to Lin Yimu's former elementary and junior high school. After getting all the information about Lin Yimu, they looked at each other in bewilderment at the documents in their hands.
Finally, it was Captain Zheng who waved his hand and said, "Let's go to No. 1 High School." Only then did the few people who were still looking at each other in confusion react, and they quickly packed up the documents in their hands and followed him out.
At No. 1 High School, when the mathematics teacher received a call from his supervisor, he was completely confused. He didn't understand what the professor was saying at all, and his eyes were still full of confusion until he hung up the phone.
It was not until the first class in the afternoon that Lin Yimu was suddenly called to the office by Director Chen with a solemn face. The math teacher realized that something might have gone wrong. Although he was very anxious, he still had to patiently finish the class for the students in the classroom.
Lin Yimu, who was suddenly called away, did not feel nervous at all. He even asked Director Chen curiously, "Director, what's so important that you called me out during class?"
Director Chen looked at Lin Yimu, who was full of confusion, and gave him a worried look. He sighed deeply and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Someone just wants to ask you a few questions. When you get to the principal's office, just answer truthfully. Don't be nervous."
As he spoke, he patted Lin Yimu's shoulder to comfort him. But he began to worry in his heart, and he didn't know what the matter was that required him to send people from that department to investigate Lin Yimu.
Looking at Director Chen's expression and state, although the other party didn't say anything, Lin Yimu still vaguely guessed something.
