Chapter 247 I Have a Classmate
According to the address provided by Teacher Qi Yue, Yu Zhiming found a small restaurant that was unremarkable and even a bit shabby.
This made him think for a moment that he had found the wrong place.
Walking into one of the only two private rooms in the small restaurant, Yu Zhiming saw Teacher Qi Yue and a young and energetic girl with a ponytail who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Zhiming, let me introduce you. This is my little daughter Qi Xin. She has been clamoring to meet you."
Qi Xin looked well-behaved and said in a sweet voice, "Hello, Brother Zhiming!"
"In the past, I saw many photos and news about Brother Zhiming in the news and on the internet."
"After seeing him today, he is indeed very handsome, much better looking than in the photo."
Yu Zhiming smiled lightly and said, "Qi Xin, thank you for the compliment. Well, you are also very beautiful."
Yu Zhiming came to the other side of Teacher Qi Yue, picked up the teapot on the dining table, refilled some tea for Teacher Qi and Qi Xin, poured himself a cup, and then sat down.
Qi Yue took a sip from his teacup and chuckled, "Zhiming, I heard that you were dismissive of the doctors from Johns Hopkins Hospital. You only chatted with them for a few words before walking away."
Yu Zhiming smiled and replied, "Teacher, it's not that exaggerated. We even introduced each other and chatted for quite a while."
Then he recounted what happened the day before.
Qi Yue sighed softly, "I've also studied abroad, and I can feel the inherent arrogance of some people there, as well as their contempt and prejudice towards us."
"But at that time, I was studying there, so I could only pretend not to see a lot of things, or endure them."
Qi Yue smiled again and said, "Zhi Ming, you have nothing to ask of them, and you are young and full of vigor. Facing their arrogance, you don't have to be nice to them."
After a pause, he turned and asked, "How do you feel about vacationing in Lakeview Mountain Lodge?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "It's a beautiful place with clear water and green mountains. It's quiet and has a lot of delicious food. It's quite nice."
“It’s just that the consumption is high and there are a lot of things to do.”
"A lot of things?" Qi Yue grasped the key point and asked.
Yu Zhiming briefly recounted the story of a child who peeped at others having sex in the wild and was thrown off a cliff, a bodybuilder, a suicidal man, a conflict on a golf course, and the bezoar.
Qi Xin, who was standing by, listened with great interest, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
"Brother Zhiming, you're treated like the protagonist in a novel. Wherever you go, events unfold one after another, it's rich and colorful, and you show off your abilities."
Yu Zhiming said happily, "I don't expect to be treated like a protagonist. I just want to spend a quiet vacation."
Qi Yue chuckled and said, "This should be what some people say, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility."
He took the opportunity to teach Qi Xin a lesson, "Xiao Xin, if you were also at Huguangshanshe at that time, you would not be able to participate in the things Zhiming said."
"To you, it's just some gossip that you forget once you hear it."
“The world is rich and colorful, but your life is dull and boring because you lack the ability to participate in it.”
Qi Xin curled her lips and said, "Dad, please stop using this as an excuse to lecture me, okay?"
"I am studying hard."
Qi Yue tried to touch Qi Xin's head lovingly, but Qi Xin dodged him in disgust, looking at Yu Zhiming with bright eyes.
"Brother Zhiming, is that bezoar real or fake? Have you ever seen it with your own eyes?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it, but now that I think about it, it's very likely fake."
"The probability of finding natural bezoar is about the same as winning the lottery jackpot. How can you just wander around and see a cow with bezoar on a farm?"
"It's probably a bureau."
Qi Yue nodded gently and said, "I think so too. The person who bought the bezoar could have spent millions to celebrate his mother's birthday. Even if he was cheated out of a million, he wouldn't feel too bad."
"That scammer has a lot of potential. He's much better than the bad guys who defraud ordinary people of their hard-earned money."
Qi Xin asked doubtfully, "Dad, you seem to really admire this liar?"
Qi Yue chuckled and said, "I do have some appreciation for it."
"When I was young, I often watched films about thieves and con men, who used their wits and courage to set up schemes to steal the ill-gotten gains of the rich."
"Young people nowadays only watch comic book hero movies that lack plots and thought..."
At this time, the restaurant owner began to serve the dishes, which were all home-cooked seasonal side dishes.
Yu Zhiming tasted it and found it tasted unexpectedly good.
While eating and chatting, Yu Zhiming mentioned that his niece Zeng Yan had changed schools and majors.
Qi Yue pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Zhi Ming, the operation is very difficult, you really dare to think of it."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "I know it's very difficult, and I don't have any hope of success, so I thought I'd ask for help from many people and give it a try. What if I succeed?"
Qi Yue nodded slightly and said, "I'll also contact a few people with some status and power to see if they have any solutions."
"Thank you, teacher. I'm sorry for taking the trouble to follow you." Yu Zhiming said sincerely.
Qi Yue waved his hand and said, "There's no need to talk about this between us, but the power that my connections can exert in this matter is probably limited."
"In addition to asking Dean Li for help, please also ask Academician Tan, Academician Zhang, and the Gu family for help."
"They might have some connections."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said "hmm".
At this time, Qi Xin blinked and asked, "Brother Zhiming, Dad said that your auscultation and percussion skills are unparalleled, mainly due to your extremely sharp hearing."
"Is that so?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "My hearing is much sharper than that of ordinary people."
"How sharp?" Qi Xin asked.
this……
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "It's hard to describe it clearly. Compared to ordinary people, I can hear very subtle sounds, and I can also distinguish many things from subtle sounds."
Qi Xin rolled his eyes, pointed to the private room next door, and said, "Brother Zhiming, listen to the noise, there are guests in the private room next door now."
"What can you hear?"
Yu Zhiming moved his chair back a little and put his right hand on the wall.
The walls are made of single bricks, so the sound insulation effect is almost non-existent for Yu Zhiming.
He listened quietly for a minute or two and then withdrew his hand.
"There were three women and one man sitting inside, all young people, and they ordered six dishes and a soup on the table."
Qi Xin couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Brother Zhiming, you can even tell how many dishes they ordered?"
Qi Yue chuckled and said, "Xiao Xin, Zhiming is still oversimplifying it. In fact, he can hear a lot of details, but there is no need to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Qi Xin became even more excited, and kept asking Yu Zhi to show his true abilities.
Yu Zhiming was happy to show off, so he asked Qi Xin to ask the restaurant owner for paper and pen.
Yu Zhiming picked up a pen and spent nearly ten minutes drawing a simple diagram on paper.
The simple picture depicts the heights, weights, and hairstyles of the four people sitting at the dining table. One of the women is wearing glasses.
Full of doubts, Qi Xin rushed out of the private room with the simple diagram and went to verify it.
A minute or two later, Qi Xin came back with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Brother Zhiming, every detail is correct. It's incredible. How did you do it?"
Yu Zhiming said with a hint of pride, "I can't really explain how I did it. It's a natural talent, I guess."
Qi Xin said with envy, "Brother Zhiming, I also want a talent like this."
Qi Yue said in a deep voice: "Xiao Xin, every matter has two sides. This talent has brought benefits to Zhiming, but it has also brought him a lot of inconvenience."
"For example, I have to endure all kinds of noise all the time, especially when I rest at night."
"You know, Zhiming's bedroom is a specially renovated soundproof bedroom."
Yu Zhiming met Qi Xin's gaze and said, "I've been adapting to it since I was a child, and now I can barely control the negative effects of my acute hearing."
"If an adult suddenly gained hearing abilities like mine, there's a high probability that they'd go crazy."
Qi Xin said "oh" half-knowingly...
After eating and drinking, Qi Yue talked to Yu Zhiming about work.
"Even though it's vacation time these days, more people have found me through various channels than in previous years."
Qi Yue said with a complicated expression: "To be precise, those guys wanted to contact you through me."
"Alas, some favors are hard to refuse. Zhiming will be very busy in the next two weeks."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Teacher, I'm not afraid of being busy. At my age, it's the time to be busy and learn more."
After a pause, he turned and asked, "Teacher, what about the awakening device project?"
Qi Yue said, "I've been busy these past few days, going through the monitoring data of those people, and found a few brainwave amplitudes and frequencies that can be identified as key data."
This information made Yu Zhiming very happy, as it meant that the R&D project had made a substantial breakthrough.
"Next..."
Qi Yue continued, "We can ask Boss Hua to make a few test machines."
"We have also resumed the trial and are continuing to collect more volunteer monitoring data while preparing for the next phase of verification testing."
Qi Xin couldn't help but interrupt again and said, "Brother Zhiming, can you please do me a favor?"
"Oh, what can I do for you?" Yu Zhiming replied gently.
Qi Xin glanced at Qi Yue and said cautiously, "Um, Brother Zhiming, I have a classmate who went to a laboratory with his family for a visit."
"She accidentally dropped a coin into a very delicate instrument."
"The instrument reported an error and cannot be used normally!"
"It is said that the instrument is very sophisticated and cannot be repaired domestically. We need to hire a foreigner to repair it, which will cost a lot of money."
Qi Yue's face darkened as he said, "Xiao Xin, the classmate you were talking about, isn't that you?"
"I was wondering why you came to see me so suddenly. Are you running to me to escape the disaster?"
Qi Xin smiled guiltily and looked at Yu Zhiming expectantly.
"Brother Zhiming, with your ability, you should be able to take out that coin, right?"
