Chapter 57 Professor Ma: Have I Become a Tool?
When they walked out of the research institute, they discovered that the power was out!
The campus was pitch black.
"What happened?"
"Why did the power go out all of a sudden?" President Liu Xuemin asked, feeling puzzled.
"We also want to ask you what happened!" A voice suddenly rang out.
"Why are you asking me? How would I know?"
President Liu Xuemin shrugged, but the next second, he froze and looked in the direction from which the voice had come!
He discovered a group of people suddenly walking out of the darkness!
Zhao Dairou immediately became alert and shielded Su Chen by her side.
"Don't be nervous, we are on the same side!"
"We are from the Special Operations Team of the National Security Bureau!"
The middle-aged man in the lead showed his identification.
Professor Ma Zhiqiang also stepped forward, shielding Su Chen behind him, and said to the middle-aged man:
"What are you doing at the school?"
The middle-aged man shrugged: "We didn't want to come here either!"
"Otherwise, it would be much better to be resting at home late at night!"
He gave a light cough and got to the point: "Relevant departments detected abnormal power consumption here and sent us to investigate!"
"Which one is President Liu of the research institute?"
President Liu Xuemin stepped forward: "That's me!"
He chuckled: "Surely using some electricity isn't enough to warrant questioning, right?"
As soon as his words landed, a man wearing a power plant uniform spoke up sharply:
"You call that using some electricity?"
"Why do you think the power went out?"
"It's not just your school; the power in the entire Long City has been cut off!"
"The reserve power for the urban area of Long City has been completely drained!"
Upon hearing this, President Liu Xuemin's eyes widened.
"Goodness, just how much energy was used?"
He knew this collision experiment might require quite a bit of power!
But he didn't expect it to be this exaggerated!
He was just about to push Su Chen forward, but he discovered that not only had this kid, under the leadership of Professor Ma Zhiqiang, slipped away secretly!
"Hey, you guys..."
President Liu Xuemin reached out to call them back, but was grabbed by the people from the power plant!
"You have to give us an explanation for this!"
"I won't let you get away with this!"
President Liu Xuemin wanted to cry but had no tears!
It has nothing to do with me!
Professor Ma Zhiqiang, Su Chen, you are selling out your teammates, aren't you!
...
"Professor, is it really okay for us to do this?" Zhao Dairou felt a bit guilty.
Professor Ma Zhiqiang, however, was indifferent: "Don't worry, the situation is special this time; it will be fine once President Liu Xuemin explains it clearly!"
"The key is that Su Chen's research must not be leaked!"
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved!
The experiment had been going on from the morning straight into the night!
Professor Ma Zhiqiang told them to get some good rest!
But Su Chen couldn't wait to continue his research!
"Senior sister, you should go back and rest! I'll go to the Laboratory by myself!"
"I want to analyze the newly acquired data right now!"
Professor Ma Zhiqiang was stunned!
"You brat, I know you're hardworking, but you can't push yourself this hard!"
"Look how late it is; go back and get some good rest!"
Apparently, Su Chen had already made up his mind and was not easily persuaded.
After saying that, he ran towards the Laboratory!
Watching his back, Professor Ma Zhiqiang suddenly laughed:
"Being a genius is one thing, but a genius who works this hard!"
"How are we ordinary people supposed to live!"
Zhao Dairou opened her mouth slightly in surprise!
A titan of engineering, yet he calls himself an ordinary person in front of Su Chen!
Her junior is just too amazing!
Not long after Su Chen returned to the Laboratory and just started his research, he saw Zhao Dairou coming over carrying two quilts!
Su Chen was a bit surprised: "Senior sister, what are you doing?"
Zhao Dairou spread out the quilt next to Su Chen!
"I can see you don't plan on going back to sleep tonight!"
"So I'm moving here to sleep, and protecting you while I'm at it!"
"Don't stay up too late, okay!"
Saying this, Zhao Dairou stretched, and slowly lay down!
Before long, the sound of light snoring began!
Su Chen shrugged: "So much for protecting me; she fell asleep so quickly!"
Looking at Zhao Dairou's delicate face, he inexplicably found her to be quite cute!
He also stretched, but instead of resting, he continued to research!
Time waits for no one!
Su Chen was always worried that if he fell asleep, the next day he would see news that the Eagle Nation's Space Mecha had been released!
He was terrified of falling behind them.
...
In a blink of an eye, more than half a month passed.
During this period, Su Chen also went to the Particle Collider Research Institute many times for experimental analysis!
Finally, through unremitting efforts.
He finally captured the new type of particle he needed under specific energy fluctuations based on this data!
This was some incredibly exciting news!
It was even enough to shock the entire industry!
The discovery of new particles helps to reveal the basic composition and structure of matter.
By studying their properties, interactions, and behavioral patterns, one can further understand the microscopic foundation of the material world.
For example, the discovery of the Higgs boson confirmed the existence of the Higgs field, providing a key clue to understanding the origin of mass.
President Liu Xuemin was shocked; he hadn't believed at all that Su Chen could really discover new particles!
As a result, he was completely slapped in the face this time!
He even forgot about being sold out by his teammates earlier and said to Su Chen with pleasant surprise:
"Su Chen, this is truly a great discovery!"
"You could even apply for the Nobel Prize!"
Su Chen was amused by his latter sentence!
President Liu Xuemin thought he didn't believe it!
Just as he was about to explain, he heard Professor Ma Zhiqiang say:
"Old Liu!"
"Do you think Su Chen is like us?"
"We might not even be able to win a single Nobel Prize in our entire lives!"
"Do you know how much advanced technology is on the Mecha he created before?"
"If you take out the theories behind these technologies, as well as the new materials, Su Chen could win enough Nobel Prizes to make his hands go soft!"
"He doesn't care about that at all!"
President Liu Xuemin's face showed shock; although he didn't understand Su Chen's First-generation Mecha, he understood Professor Ma Zhiqiang!
He never boasted, but at this moment, he gave such a high evaluation of the various technologies hidden behind Su Chen's First-generation Mecha!
President Liu Xuemin realized that he had still underestimated Su Chen!
This young man seemed to truly have no limits!
Afterward, Su Chen asked Professor Ma Zhiqiang to contact the Nuclear Physics Laboratory!
President Liu Xuemin was shocked once again!
"Su Chen, do you also understand nuclear physics?"
Su Chen calmly explained: "For the new energy of future Mecha, I plan to use nuclear energy instead!"
"Similar to a micro nuclear reactor!"
Besides shock, President Liu Xuemin had nothing left but shock!
This kid not only had no limits, but he was also comprehensive!
Even he couldn't help but envy Su Chen's talent!
The dean of the Nuclear Physics Laboratory warmly received Su Chen!
He had long heard of Su Chen's reputation and was prepared to assist him!
The intention was good, but when the research actually started, he discovered that Su Chen's theories regarding nuclear energy applications were too advanced; he had originally thought about assisting him!
In the end, he could barely manage to be Su Chen's assistant!
He even almost made a mistake in the middle!
In front of Su Chen, the dignified dean of the National Defense University's Nuclear Physics Research Institute appeared just like an apprentice.
Zhao Dairou was completely confused!
After another period of time.
Su Chen ran off to the Nanomaterials Laboratory!
The person in charge of the Laboratory stayed here every day, waiting for the birth of one new nanomaterial after another!
The man, who was nearing sixty, was as happy as a child every day.
So when Su Chen left, he wasn't used to it and often went to look for Su Chen, even wanting to introduce his granddaughter to him!
However, this was forcibly stopped by Zhao Dairou in her capacity as his girlfriend!
Su Chen was quite annoyed at the time, because the man's granddaughter was really stunning, although she still didn't come close to one percent of Zhao Dairou.
However, when Zhao Dairou's knuckles cracked as she clenched her fist, Su Chen suddenly felt that romantic affairs were trivial matters, and building national defense was what we should be doing!
Leaving the Nanomaterials Laboratory, Su Chen traveled back and forth between other laboratories!
Professor Ma Zhiqiang had completely fallen into the role of a tool used to help Su Chen contact various laboratories!
As for how far Su Chen's research and development had progressed, he had absolutely no idea!
