Chapter 117 116. Young man, do you want to take the mission? There are delicious ones.
Fu Boxuan, assistant researcher at the Academy of Sciences, holds two doctoral degrees. In the past five years, he has published eight papers as the first author in core journals. He works at the Center for Radiation Imaging Technology and Equipment Engineering of the Institute of High Energy Physics.

The meaning of introducing this is that such a senior scientific researcher, when passing by the cafeteria at noon, was inexplicably attracted by a small stall at the door, drew a note, tasted a water chestnut, took a task, and got two water chestnuts as an advance payment.

It is said that you can get three more after completing the task.

Fu Boxuan himself was laughing. Writing a letter to a senior high school student was nothing special, but the interesting thing was that he could get paid for it. The payout was actually six water chestnuts.

When did the Institute of High Energy Physics become so interesting?

In fact, he didn't know that Sister Zhao was so distressed when she gave him six water chestnuts as a reward. Although the water chestnuts Luo Yihang sent were not big, they were weighed and there were only sixteen or seventeen of them in one pound.

One letter in exchange for six water chestnuts, which is rounded up to a little over one pound.

But Sister Zhao still made the decision, "Give it to me. I don't feel bad. If you take my things, you have to write for me well. Write at least a thousand words for me. Otherwise, you will be sorry for my overflowing love."

Ding Rui, Yan Yanyan, and Sister Sun applauded collectively to show their agreement.

Back to Fu Boxuan, he had nothing to do in the dormitory, so he opened the note.

On the note was a student's simple information, and this was the person he was tasked with completing the task for.

By the way, when you accept a task, the target is randomly selected, and you don’t necessarily know who you will get.

The girl that Fu Boxuan drew was named Liu Xinxin. When he looked at her grades, he saw that she was ranked first in her class and first in her grade at a key middle school in the city.

I still study science.

That’s amazing.

Hehe, this is a great talent, we can’t let others snatch it away…

Tianhan No. 3 Middle School, Class 3, Grade 3.

It was written prominently on the blackboard: [There are 14 days left until the college entrance examination].

During evening self-study, all the students in the class were working hard on their papers. The only sounds in the whole classroom were the sounds of writing and turning pages.

It fully demonstrates the style of a key high school.

Suddenly, the classroom door opened and the head teacher, Mr. Qu, walked in holding a bag, followed by two teaching staff. One of them carried a large box and placed it next to the podium before turning around and leaving.

Teacher Qu stood behind the podium and clapped his hands, asking everyone to put down what they were doing and pay attention.

"Students, please take your seats. We are going to have an impromptu class meeting today."

The students gradually raised their heads and looked towards the podium, only to find that Teacher Qu's eyes were a little red.

"The teacher feels very honored and touched today because my students, you who are sitting here, have received a gift."

"The National Academy of Sciences Institute of High Energy Physics in the imperial capital prepared a gift for everyone, a piece of rice cake and a rice dumpling for each person, which means 'high school entrance examination'."

After saying that, Teacher Qu took out a small gift box from the box next to him.

The gift box is not big, it is red in color, and has a transparent window on it. You can see a square rice cake and a triangular rice dumpling inside. They are not big and can be eaten in one bite.

The thing itself is not important, it's just a good omen.

What’s important is the line of words printed on the outside: “The Institute of High Energy Physics of the National Academy of Sciences wishes all candidates good luck in the college entrance examination! 】

This is a gift from the Institute of High Energy.

Ding Rui and her colleagues openly set up a stall in front of the cafeteria to distribute tasks. How could the leaders of the Institute of High Energy Physics not see it?

The first question is about helping senior high school students prepare for the college entrance examination.

Good thing.

The Academy of Sciences also has a publicity department, and they have opened accounts on various video platforms to shoot popular science videos. Popularizing science for young people, teaching, and cultivating their scientific literacy are also part of their work, and they also have a special project called the "Spring Equinox Project."

College entrance examination assistance is naturally one of them.

Therefore, the publicity department of the Institute of High Energy Physics specially prepared gifts, took photos, wrote promotional articles, interviewed leaders, and then sent the gifts together with letters to the children.

This 'high school' is just an appetizer.

Teacher Qu put down the gift box and took out a letter from the pocket she had been holding when she came in.

"The scientists at the Academy of Sciences have also written a letter for each of you. Everyone has one. But this one is not included. This is an open letter to our senior class as a whole. I'll read it to you."

"What you see, what you remember, and how you understand things all depend on where you stand..."

"There should be one time in a person's life when one fights without regard for the consequences, whether it is for that perfect sweetheart or a dream that seems far away. As long as there is a chance to turn things around, even if it is just a tiny bit, one should try one's best. Leaving no regrets is the most perfect chapter in life..."

"Seize the present, work hard, fight for the college entrance examination, and create miracles..."

Although these are all clichés, this is the National Academy of Sciences, a top scientific research institute, and the meaning it represents is completely different.

Even though the students have heard these encouraging words countless times this year, they are still excited.

The open letter was quickly read out. Teacher Qu carefully put the letter away and opened the bag again. "Now we will distribute the gifts and the letters written to you by scientists. Students whose names are read, please come up. Liu Xinxin..."

Liu Xinxin, the monitor of Class 3, Grade 12, rode her bike frantically back home after evening self-study.

He opened the door with a bang, and stood in the hallway and yelled at his parents: "I want to apply to Shuimu! Shuimu's Department of Physics! I also want to apply for graduate school! Graduate school wants to apply for the National Academy of Sciences! Do you agree?"

The noise was so loud that the neighbors opened the door a crack and looked out.

Mother Liu hurried out, pulled Liu Xinxin in, and nodded to the neighbors with a smile on her face.

She felt happy. She had already deduced the neighbors' comments in her mind: "This must be the daughter of the Liu family. It's time for her to take the college entrance examination." "She should take the Shuimu exam. She can do it." "The daughter of the Liu family is a good student. She ranks first in the grade." "Look at how other people's children are brought up. Then look at you." "Blah blah blah."

I even have to think about how to pretend to be polite at a graduation banquet.

[Oh, we didn't do much about it], [Well, it's all thanks to the child's hard work, we don't deserve any credit], [We kept telling the child not to work so hard, just be healthy and happy, but we didn't expect she would pass the exam], [What about cram school and nutritious meals, we didn't care about her. 】【blah blah]

It’s so satisfying just thinking about it.

In the room, Father Liu touched his daughter's forehead and found that she didn't have a fever. He looked left and right and there was nothing unusual.

what happened?
Why is my usually quiet daughter shouting in the corridor today?
too much stress?

Liu Xinxin was indeed a little excited today. She pushed away her father's hand that was about to put on her forehead and asked again in a hurry: "I want to take the Shuimu exam. Do you agree?"

Do you agree or not? Of course I agree.

Shuimu and Weiming are the top two universities in China. Who hasn’t been asked when they were young, should they choose Shuimu or Weiming when they grow up?

Many children will struggle for a long time, wondering which one to take. They both feel good, but why can they only choose one? It's so frustrating.

Unfortunately, when they grow up, they will realize that they thought too much back then.

However, his Liu Xinxin is really worth considering.

Dad and Mom Liu often muttered to themselves while lying in bed at night. Shuimu or Weiming? Renmin University is also good. What if their daughter doesn't want to go so far and wants to go to Wujiaochang Secretarial Vocational and Technical College?

Oh, the trouble of happiness.

However, Liu Xinxin has never expressed which university she wants to apply to, and they didn't dare to ask for fear of putting pressure on the child.

But today, he was fine when he went out in the morning. How could he have decided everything, even where he would take the postgraduate entrance examination?
It was...it was quite sudden.
