Lin Yimu thought for a moment and shook his head, "It seems not. Besides, Professor Wan said before that the peer review alone might take several months."
Huang Minglei thought about who the peer reviewers were and felt that it was normal for it to take longer. He nodded and said, "Indeed, those peer reviewers are basically bigwigs from all walks of life, and there are even Yangtze River Scholars. It is normal for it to take longer."
Lin Yimu looked at him and smiled, "Okay, don't think too much. We have been preparing for the national competition during this period. Maybe we will receive an email after the national competition is over."
When talking about the national competition, both of them were a little worried about the results the day after tomorrow. They didn't talk about the thesis anymore, but sighed and continued to organize the notes from today's class. Only when they study can they calm down.
The two of them were discussing today's learning content in the room. After all, their learning progress was different, and they still had their own doubts about what they learned in today's class.
Unbeknownst to Lin Yimu and the others, the Peking University students who had taken classes with Lin Yimu today were discussing the four of them, especially Lin Yimu, in a hot thread on the Peking University campus forum.
[Let's discuss the four students who attended the class in the No. 2 Teaching Building of the School of Mathematics today]
1L: There is only one large class in Teaching Building No. 2 of the School of Mathematics today. I think it is Professor Jiang’s class? Isn't it normal for some people to take classes for free?
2L: I was there and left late when the get out of class was over, so I roughly know who the poster is talking about.
3L: +1, a secret code, a mathematical conjecture.
4L: Let me be frank. The four people who came to attend Professor Jiang’s class today are high school students who are here to participate in a math competition. It’s not enough that they can understand Professor Jiang’s lectures, but one of them even published a paper!
5L: I was at the scene and heard that one of them, Lin Yimu, solved a mathematical conjecture and published it in an SCI journal. This is really amazing!
6L: +1 for being there, listening to that high school student and Professor Jiang discussing the problem. As a mathematics undergraduate, I couldn’t understand anything at all. I even doubted who was the college student between me and the other one.
7L: Is this true or false? Are today's high school students so amazing? Can you solve mathematical conjectures?
8L: People who were present at the scene can testify that it should be true. Professor Jiang discussed with him for a while and even tried his best to invite him to study at Peking University. He even recruited three other people around him and gave them his contact information.
9L: Oh my god! Professor Jiang actually gave out all his contact information. Did those four people agree to come to Peking University with Professor Jiang?
10L: Back to the 9th floor, three out of the four people agreed, and the other one who didn’t agree seemed to want to go to a school with a strong aerospace program, so he didn’t agree.
11L: Are today’s high school students so scary? I have solved mathematical conjectures, published SCI papers, and now I have been personally invited by Professor Jiang from the School of Mathematics to study under him. In comparison, I am such a loser as an undergraduate!

In the campus forum of Peking University, many people were discussing in this post about the high school students who went to the Physics Department to take classes today. There were also many confused Peking University students who clicked on the post. After reading the discussion in the post, they were either amazed or in disbelief, and some even expressed their feelings.
The next day was still a time for academic exchanges, but because there was no subject that Lin Yimu wanted to listen to, he continued to drag a few people to attend classes. In the morning, he went to the School of Mathematics, but in the afternoon, Lin Yimu went to the School of Physics.
The three people who were pulled by Lin Yimu to sit in the Physics School classroom were still in a daze, not understanding why they were suddenly sitting in the Physics School classroom when they were just discussing math problems? Although they are good at mathematics and physics, they still don't have the confidence that they can understand the courses that are skipped.
"Lin Yimu, is it really okay for us to come to class like this every day?" Huang Minglei whispered while sitting in the corner of the back row and looking at everyone in the class.
Yuan Mingxu and Ke Chengyan also looked at Lin Yimu with some worry.
Lin Yimu looked at the three people, took out the notebook and pen he had prepared, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, we came early this time, and the location is so remote, we will definitely not be discovered by the teacher again."
Huang Minglei and the other two glanced at the students sitting around them. There seemed to be a lot more students than when they attended classes in the School of Mathematics before, and no one noticed them. They felt relieved.
However, when the class started, Lin Yimu and the other three were pointed out by the teacher.
Originally, Lin Yimu and the other three were huddled in a corner, listening to the lecture and taking notes. But when Lin Yimu was taking notes, the teacher, who had written a theorem on the blackboard, suddenly called Lin Yimu's name.
"Student Lin Yimu, please explain what this theorem on the blackboard means."
Lin Yimu, who was concentrating on taking notes, was a little slow to react when he heard his name. It was not until Huang Minglei beside him gently touched him that he hurriedly stood up, glanced at the new knowledge point written on the blackboard and said, "The law of conservation of momentum. If a system is not subject to external forces or the sum of the external forces is zero, the total momentum of the system remains unchanged."
The teacher nodded with satisfaction after listening to Lin Yimu's explanation. After letting Lin Yimu sit down, he continued to explain to everyone as if nothing had happened just now.
But he was very happy in his heart. In fact, Lin Yimu's name had been promoted by Professor Jiang of the School of Mathematics. The students and teachers of the School of Mathematics of Peking University, as well as the teachers of the School of Physics who often cooperated with the School of Physics, already knew it. After all, the School of Mathematics and the School of Physics were very close, and the teachers had exchanges with each other.
Professor Jiang had already helped Lin Yimu promote his talent among the teachers in the School of Mathematics yesterday, or to be more precise, he had shown off to them. But that was not enough. Even when he met professors and teachers he was familiar with in the School of Physics, he showed off to everyone with a bright smile the talent he was about to discover.
In fact, even some Peking University students who attended classes in the School of Mathematics yesterday and left late at the end of the class listened to the entire conversation between Lin Yimu and Professor Jiang. Especially when Professor Jiang asked him about his paper on mathematical conjectures, everyone was pretending to pack up their things while eavesdropping with their ears perked up.
If Lin Yimu and his friends had an account on Peking University's campus forum, they would probably be able to see the most popular post on the forum, which is the discussion about the four people attending classes at the School of Mathematics yesterday and at the School of Physics this morning. That post is still on the front page of the forum.
Looking at the old professor who asked them to stand up and answer the questions, Lin Yimu was actually still a little confused. He didn't know how the old professor knew him and could call out his name accurately, so he didn't come to his senses until he stood up and answered the question.
He sat in his seat in a daze for a long time, thinking, and suddenly remembered what Professor Jiang said before, that Professor Wan called him and talked about him. Does that mean that these old professors have a good relationship, so he was directly called by name by the professor of the School of Physics?
Lin Yimu was thinking about all these random things in his mind, so he was a little distracted during the class. It was not until Huang Minglei noticed that he had been in a daze since he sat down and touched him with a bit of concern that he came back to his senses.
Lin Yimu came back to his senses and quickly collected his scattered thoughts. He didn't pay attention to the eyes that were cast over him since he was called to answer the question, and continued to take notes while listening to the class.
It wasn't until the end of the class that Lin Yimu finally relaxed his breath. While packing up his notebook, he said, "I don't know how the teacher knew me. I was really shocked to be called up to answer a question all of a sudden."
Huang Minglei was also packing his things while saying, "You took us to attend classes at the School of Mathematics of Peking University yesterday and this morning. I'm sure everyone knows about it. The School of Mathematics and the School of Physics are very close to each other, so these professors from Peking University must have communicated with each other. It would be strange if they didn't know about it."
Even Huang Minglei, who had been lazy all the time, raised his eyes and looked at Lin Yimu and said, "I guess all the students in the School of Mathematics and the School of Physics know about the four of us now. I saw someone secretly taking photos with their mobile phones during class. They must have posted them on the campus forum of Beijing University."
Lin Yimu shrugged helplessly and said, "How would I know it would be like this? I just wanted to take a class, learn more, and experience the classroom atmosphere of Beijing University."
"Okay, let's go back and stop thinking about what has already happened. Tomorrow morning will be the closing ceremony of the math competition, and our final results will be announced then. I'm still a little nervous thinking about it." Ke Chengyan stood up with a stern face, holding his notebook and looking at the three people. It was rare for him to say such a long string of words.
