"Zhou, Liu Rui, we're leaving. Take care."
"See you in two months."
Shi Shang and Huang Guangming waved their hands as they dragged their suitcases. Only Lu Zhou and Liu Rui were left in the empty dorm room.
The summer vacation had begun.
In less than a week, the entire school would be quiet. People would only return to school at the end of August. By that time, the school would be lively again. Not only would students return to school, but new students would also join the school.
Lu Zhou finished his application and said goodbye to Liu Rui. He then took his laptop and left the dorm. He first went to the dorm management office and handed in the application form. Then, he went to the library.
The academic atmosphere at Jin Ling University was amazing. Although most people had left the school, the library was still filled with graduate entrance exam students. Even if some seats were empty, there would still be a large pile of books.
Sometimes, Lu Zhou couldn't help but wonder what these people were after. Some people's books were covered in a thick layer of dust, but no one ever came.
When Lu Zhou saw that there was a book on his usual seat, he was about to change his seat. However, Chen Yushan, who was sitting next to him, quietly took the book and waved at him.
Lu Zhou suddenly realized that this seat was reserved for him.
He didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight over.
Lu Zhou placed his laptop on the table and did not immediately sit down. Instead, he went to the bookshelf next to him.
He thought about the contents of the book list and hesitated for a bit. Finally, he took down [Linear Algebra (National Defense Industry Press Edition)] from the bookshelf.
Although the system gave him a book list that was suitable for him and even marked the position of each book on the bookshelf with a holographic image that only he could see, unfortunately, the system did not mark the value of each book. He could only choose the reading order based on his own judgment.
Don't underestimate the order of reading. There was a certain degree of coherence between knowledge, and even between different disciplines, there was a mutual influence.
It would be very difficult to understand the contents of [Microelectronics] without learning the basics of [Semiconductor Physics] and [Basic Circuit Design]. Without the basics of [Microelectronics], it would be even more difficult to understand [Introduction to IC Design]. It would be like reading a book from heaven.
Starting with mathematics was undoubtedly a conservative choice.
Under normal circumstances, it was the mathematics foundation that affected the understanding of other science and engineering subjects. It was rare for other science and engineering subjects to affect mathematics instead. Coincidentally, mathematics was Lu Zhou's area of expertise. Although some things were new to him, at least he wouldn't feel like he didn't know where to start.
It just so happened that he still had a big gap in his mathematics knowledge. Many of his knowledge points were wrong.
For example, because of the first thesis he redeemed, he had a deep understanding of complex and real variables, as well as functional analysis. However, for the parts of knowledge that were not covered in the thesis, he was completely clueless.
Fortunately, no one was bored enough to test him with a textbook. Otherwise, there would definitely be problems.
A person who hadn't even finished the functional analysis textbook was talking about "optimal inversion theory of linear operators and linear functionals" in a core journal. No one would believe it.
"If only I had water." Lu Zhou took out a white bottle from his pocket and stood behind the bookshelf. He looked at the cup of water on Chen Yushan's desk and hesitated for a bit. In the end, he gave up on that bold idea.
Lu Zhou took out a capsule and threw it into his mouth with his eyes closed. He then swallowed it.
He waited for a while, but strangely, there was no change. Suddenly, a slight tingling sensation spread from the back of his head. It swept past his eyes and gathered between his eyebrows.
It was hard to describe the feeling. It was like invisible ants were crawling on his head.
Nanomachines?
Or some kind of special chemical hormone?
Lu Zhou didn't know. Because the technology provided by the system was beyond the scope of knowledge in this world. The only thing he felt was that his brain was extremely clear and his thinking was extremely meticulous. It was like he was possessed by Newton, Einstein, and Heimerdinger.
It was like he had eaten Stride Mall. He couldn't stop at all.
Lu Zhou realized that this was the effect of the drug.
Without any hesitation, he took the book back to his seat and sat down. He then meticulously flipped to the first page of the book.
The effect of the focus capsule was different from the immersive reading experience from the last mission.
The immersive reading experience from last time was more like a type of wholehearted devotion. It was like a whale swallowing water.
On the other hand, the focus capsule seemed to have stimulated the activity of his brain cells. While he was accepting knowledge, he was also thinking about himself.
Time quickly passed by. Soon, it was six o 'clock in the evening. The sky outside the window began to turn yellow.
Chen Yushan stretched her back and glanced at Lu Zhou. She saw that he was sitting in the same position as an hour ago. She couldn't help but admire him in her heart.
What a genius!
So this is how to become a genius!
But sitting like this for so long, doesn't my neck hurt?
"Hey, little brother, are you going to the cafeteria?" Chen Yushan poked Lu Zhou's arm and asked in a quiet voice.
"You go first. I'm not that hungry." Lu Zhou shook his head.
Five hours had passed. The effect of the drug was slowly decreasing. However, there was still a lingering feeling.
He wanted to see how long this feeling could last.
"Then I'll go first …" Chen Yushan suddenly remembered something. She said in a quiet voice, "Oh yeah, do you still remember the part-time job I told you about?"
Lu Zhou asked, "I remember. When does it start?"
Chen Yushan suggested in a quiet voice, "Tomorrow is Saturday. Why don't we meet up in the morning? I'll take you to see my aunt. "
Lu Zhou thought for a bit and nodded, "Okay."
Coincidentally, he didn't have anything to do tomorrow. He had to wait for another 24 hours before he could take the drug.
Two hundred yuan an hour. If he did it a few times, he would be able to pay his tuition for the next year.
The two agreed to meet at the school gate at nine o 'clock tomorrow. Then, Chen Yushan simply packed up the things on the table and went to the cafeteria.
After Chen Yushan left, Lu Zhou put his attention back on the book.
As time went by, he could clearly feel that his concentration was gradually decreasing. It was getting closer to his usual state.
Previously, he could understand the knowledge at a glance. Now, he might have to read it a few times.
And the most obvious point was that without the restraint of the drug, his state of absent-mindedness was somewhat serious, even more serious than usual.
Lu Zhou looked at the densely packed notes on the notebook and the notebook that had automatically turned off. He sighed and took out his phone to look at the time.
It was already 7: 30.
He had been eating until now. He was starving.
"The drug lasts for five hours. After the duration, the drug will continue to decrease for more than an hour until there is no effect at all."
"If I don't take the drug, I can't focus at all …"
Lu Zhou thought for a bit before he picked up the book and went to the librarian. He took out his library card and checked it out. Then, he packed his things and left the library.
On the way back to his dorm, he went to the cafeteria and ate a bowl of noodles.
After he returned to his dorm, Lu Zhou sat down and continued to read.
Regardless of the efficiency of absorbing knowledge, it was better to read as much as possible.
Although his absorption speed was very slow, it did not prevent him from consolidating the knowledge that he had already learned. Moreover, he could extend the knowledge to a certain extent.
Of course, the most important thing was that he did not want to over-rely on the focus capsule.
After all, there were only 40 capsules in a bottle. Once it was used up, there would be no more. With the single digit drop rate, he would have to wait a long time before he could get another one.
At around nine o 'clock, Liu Rui, who had just finished the mathematical modeling competition, came back to his dorm with a large bag of reference books.
When he saw that Lu Zhou was studying, he put down his backpack and immediately came over.
"Zhou, the exam is over, why are you still reading?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "I have nothing to do anyway, and I don't have anything to do."
Liu Rui looked at the contents of the book that Lu Zhou was reading and did not say anything.
Once he accepted this setting, he realized that his mentality was a lot calmer.
If it was just a one or two point difference, he would have a chance to catch up. However, the difference between 90 points and full marks made him lose the courage to catch up.
It was painful to think about.
A month before the exam, he would start studying every day when he opened his eyes. When he closed his eyes, he would still be doing questions. In the end, Zhou was still working part-time two weeks before the exam. He "woke up" right before the exam and made a few moves. Then, he and Luo Rundong both exploded.
Liu Rui still could not figure out what happened to Lu Zhou for him to have such an amazing change.
Finally, he could not help but ask the question in his mind.
"Zhou, do you have any tricks for studying mathematics? Can you teach me? "
When Liu Rui said this, his face was slightly red.
After all, in the past, every time his roommates asked him questions or borrowed his notes, he was quite reluctant.
Lu Zhou stopped writing and thought for a while.
"I don't know … Maybe it's talent?"
"…"
When Liu Rui heard this, he almost spat out blood.
Do you have to be so pretentious? Even a bad student has dignity!
As Lu Zhou watched Liu Rui go back to his seat, he sighed silently. He thought that his friendship had probably failed again.
But what could he do?
He was desperate.
