Mansion on the outskirts of Jinling.
Vera, who was sitting at the dining table, was attentively eating the fried eggs on the table while watching the holographic TV floating on the wall.
Although it had been almost a week since coming to this era, she still hadn’t fully adapted to the technological products of this era.
Especially the TVs that she could walk through. As someone from 2022, she really didn’t understand how this was possible.
However, the focus of her attention today was not the holographic TV itself, but the TV programs instead.
A gray-bearded professor sat in the studio and talked freely in the interview.
“If you ask me, I can tell you that you are looking for the right person. In the field of Z particle research, no one knows more than me except Academician Lu himself!”
With a polite smile on his face, the host looked at the old professor sincerely and said, “Okay, Professor Belur, we all know that you are an expert in the field of theoretical physics… What do you think about the reward for this proposition?”
“The Z particle wave equation has always been a cutting-edge research direction in theoretical physics, and the difficulty of this research direction is obvious to all. However, what I’m talking about here is only the difficulty, not the importance of the proposition itself.”
Host: “Can you elaborate?”
“This is nothing to elaborate on. No matter whether our understanding of space extends to n-dimensional or n+1 dimensional, we are all beings living in three-dimensional space. Even if the universe is a folded and twisted surface in a higher dimension, for us, the gap between that side and our side is still insurmountable.
“In short, even if we know that we are at the bottom of a well, the height of this well is insurmountable, so simply knowing it won’t change anything. We have worked on the gravitational wave equation of Z particles in the past century, but the physics community has not treated it as a proposition that had to be solved at the moment.”
Moderator: “So, in your opinion, Academician Lu has overestimated the importance of this equation?”
Professor Belur relaxed his shoulders. “Yes… At least I think so.”
Moderator: “What about warp travel? What about faster than light technology?”
Belur: “Forget it, although almost two centuries have passed, but… Einstein is still correct.”
The show continued, but Vera was already done with breakfast.
She placed the cutlery on the plate and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought while watching the TV.
Is warp travel just a beautiful fantasy?
Vera didn’t particularly agree with Professor Belur’s words. However, this judgment did not come from her own knowledge of physics. It was purely from her unconditional belief in another scholar.
But…
He is not always right.
If warp travel is really just a fantasy, there will never be a shortcut to a folded universe…
For some reason, she suddenly had a thought that surprised herself.
If that was the case, that would be great…
Xiao Ai, wearing an apron, walked over while humming a cheerful tune.
She was going to help clean the dishes, but Vera quickly stood up with the plate and spoke politely.
“I can clean up the table. Thank you very much for letting me live here. I feel bad for bothering you and letting you take care of me like this—”
Before Vera could finish her words, the plate in her hand was snatched away by Xiao Ai.
Xiao Ai jumped aside flexibly, turned her head, and gave her a triumphant look.
“Give up, the conspiracy to steal Master from Xiao Ai will not succeed! (⃔*`꒳ ́*)⃕↝”
Vera: “…?”
She is just an AI, right?
…
These days, the heated debate about the Z particle gravitational wave equation had become more and more intense.
The academic debate had evolved from the initial proposition itself to whether it was possible to achieve warp travel and faster than light communication and whether this proposition was important enough.
After all, the gravitational wave equation of the Z particle had been used in physics for a whole century. In the past century, people had not found the so-called simpler and more precise expression; they only had a hypothesis that it might exist.
But now, countless leaders in theoretical physics had refocused their attention on this progressively marginalized frontier field, but they still hadn’t made any particularly useful results.
No matter how patient they were, scholars in this direction would inevitably feel impetuous.
After all, so many scientific research resources were used on one hypothesis. Even though it was led by Academician Lu, this was still unreasonable.
However, compared to the impetuous outside world, Lu Zhou himself was full of confidence in this research.
With the help of his great apprentice, the progress of the project went smoothly.
Although working hard in academic research wouldn’t guarantee results, Lu Zhou clearly felt how much a coordinated assistant could help him.
However, even though they were concentrating on academic matters, some rumors still spread.
After returning home from Jin Ling University, Lu Zhou looked at Vera, who was hanging his coat before Xiao Ai could. He thought for a while and spoke.
“I’ll help you find a place to live as soon as possible.”
Vera’s hand that was holding the coat paused slightly. She whispered, “Are you sick of me?”
“Of course not.” Seeing that Vera had clearly misunderstood his kindness, Lu Zhou sighed and continued, “As for a job… I have found one for you. From now on, you will be a mathematics professor of Jin Ling University.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome… But when we were leaving, Dean Qin of the mathematics department asked me if you were staying at my house.”
Vera’s cheeks were slightly hot.
Although this was true, it was a bit embarrassing for outsiders to know.
“Then what…”
“Then the old man eagerly advised me to pay attention.” Lu Zhou made a helpless expression and said, “He said that the whole school seems to be spreading gossip about you…”
“Let them gossip about those rumors.” Vera said nonchalantly while looking at Lu Zhou intently, “You are the only person I know in this world. I only care about what you think of me. Um… Of course, if you think I cause you trouble…”
“What trouble?” Lu Zhou sighed. Looking at Vera, he sighed and said, “Forget it… I’m just worried that if you teach at Jin Ling University, these comments may annoy you. If you don’t care, do as you like.”
Of course, even without the rumors, Lu Zhou couldn’t let her live with him forever.
Not only would the gender difference cause inconvenience in daily life, but more importantly, if she did not go out of her own and start an independent life, she would never be able to truly integrate into this era.
The reason why he let her live here first was so that she could have the time to find her own place.
And if she kept living here with him, it would be contrary to his original intentions.
However, looking at the face full of caution and hope, Lu Zhou didn’t know what to say for a while.
Lu Zhou grabbed the hair on the back of his head and threw this matter aside for the time being.
As for the issue of Vera moving out, I’ll wait until the Z particle oscillation device is completed. I don’t care about the rumors after all.
As for the rest, we’ll take it one step at a time…
