Early the next morning, Ning Li stuffed the notebook into her backpack and went out.
She first went to the planetarium, met Xu Yin, and then the two drove away together.
An hour later, the car stopped in front of a building.
On the wall next to the gate, there is a square nameplate.
F-LMSAL.
Pheno - Astrophysics Laboratory.
One of the world's three largest astrophysics laboratories.
Headquartered in Baicheng abroad, this is the only branch in China.
Xu Yin is the deputy director here.
Ning Li followed him in.
It was the first time Xu Yin brought her here, and he introduced her as he walked.
"Over there is the data processing room. The observation data you sent before were all sent there."
He pointed to a separate fully enclosed cubic building behind.
Ning Li nodded.
Soon, a blond foreign man in a white lab coat came over.
He looked about forty years old and wore glasses.
"Deputy Director Xu."
"Reya."
The two greeted each other, and Rhea looked at Ning Li again, with a flash of surprise in his eyes,
"This is the one you mentioned last time?"
He speaks fluent German.
Xu Yin nodded.
Rhea looked Ning Li up and down again.
"She looks so young, is she 20 years old?"
Before Xu Yin could speak, he heard Ning Li say:
"17 years old."
She also speaks German.
Rhea froze.
One is that she didn't expect Ning Li to be only seventeen years old, and the other is that she didn't expect that she could speak German.
Then she must have understood what he said just now.
He blinked and smiled:
"I'm sorry, Deputy Director Xu didn't mention that you can speak German."
Ning Li shook her head and didn't mind.
Rhea's eyes fell on her black backpack, and she smiled even wider.
"come in."
In the data processing room, rows of giant black computers are neatly arranged.
In the huge space, there are only the sounds of machines running and typing on keyboards.
Ning Li followed the voice and looked forward.
On the side, there is a row of monitors.
A woman also wearing a white lab coat was sitting there.
The dots of light on the screen are constantly dancing, and a column of data is regularly displayed below.
"Yes."
Rhea was at the front.
The woman just turned around.
It is a delicate and clean oriental face, and it seems to be in his early twenties, very young.
Ning Li narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Let me introduce. This is the youngest researcher in our lab. He was just transferred from the Baicheng headquarters the day before yesterday, Jiang Ran. This is Deputy Director Xu. You haven't seen him before. And this one, Ning Li."
Jiang Ran stood up and greeted them with a smile.
She originally had a delicate and elegant appearance, but when she smiled, a dimple appeared on the left cheek, which made her look a little more playful and sweet.
"Hello Deputy Director Xu, hello Ning Li."
When she looked at Ning Li, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"I didn't expect that the first author of that paper was actually such a young little sister."
Rhea laughed.
"She is only seventeen years old this year. Speaking of which, she is younger than when you entered the headquarters in Baicheng."
Jiang Ran pinned the broken hair around her ear and laughed too.
"So, the children nowadays are really getting better and better."
Ning Li suppressed the emotions in her eyes.
"Hello."
Jiang Ran said:
"Now that we're here, shall we start?"
Ning Li nodded and took out the notebook.
Reya helped with the operation, and said:
"I just heard from Deputy Director Xu that Ning Li is about to take the college entrance examination. If she goes to Xijing University, then she will be your junior."
Jiang Ran graduated from the Department of Computer Science of Xijing University, and went to the laboratory headquarters in Baicheng.
I stayed there for a year and just came back a few days ago.
Jiang Ran looked surprised, but also a little bit happy.
"Yeah?"
She was sitting next to Ning Li, typing on the keyboard.
Ning Li exported the data.
Jiang Ran's expression gradually became serious.
Xu Yin stood behind.
Time passed slowly.
At a certain moment, Rhea said:
"Wait a moment."
Several people stopped.
Rhea pointed to the screen.
"These two sets of data deviate too much, is there a problem with the measurement?"
Ning Li looked at it and said:
"All data are measured uniformly, and there is no error."
"But this."
Rhea hesitated.
Ning Li explained:
"This error trend should be that when measuring these two sets of data, the corresponding radio telescope was disturbed by a certain degree of electromagnetic radiation."
Rhea suddenly realized.
Jiang Ran looked at Ning Li in surprise.
"how do you know?"
Ning Li paused.
"I saw a related paper before, which mentioned this situation."
"Really? When I was in Baicheng, the tutor I followed also studied this. What a coincidence."
Ning Li knew who she was talking about.
In fact, the paper she saw belonged to that person.
It was caught in the books and materials that Lu Huai and gave her before.
She nodded.
Jiang Ran didn't ask carefully.
Her mentor is not the only one who studies related fields.
She glanced at Ning Li from the corner of her eye, and found that her data processing speed was faster than she expected.
Only seventeen years old.
It was already past one noon when several people came out of the data processing room.
"The rest of that part could take days to process."
Rhea said, jokingly said,
"You can come here after the results come out. Of course, if you are worried, you can come here every day."
Ning Li smiled.
"Thank you."
The level of Fei Nuo's laboratory is extremely high, of course she is at ease.
A fat foreign man came over and asked in English:
"Reya, there seems to be something wrong with the spectrometer in L laboratory, do you want to go and have a look?"
Rhea nodded.
The man looked at Ning Li again, a little surprised.
"This is Ning Li who came with Deputy Director Xu? Which university?"
"Hi, I'm Ning Li."
Ning Li greeted politely and replied in English,
"Besides, I am a senior in high school this year."
The man became more astonished and couldn't help laughing.
"Based on the grade of your thesis, is it enough to apply directly to the university?"
Rhea patted him.
"This is half of Deputy Director Xu's students. When will you go to college? It's not that important. Well, you go and send it. Let's go and see the spectrometer first."
"good."
Xu Yin still had some other things to deal with, so he didn't come out.
Jiang Ran took Ning Li out.
After a few steps, there were only two people left.
Jiang Ran looked at Ning Li several times with an inquiring expression.
Ning Li noticed it, turned her head and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Ran put his hands in the pockets of his lab coat and laughed.
"It's nothing, I just think that your English accent sounds very similar to a classmate of mine."
"classmate?"
"Um."
The dimples on Jiang Ran's face appeared,
"My high school and college classmates, Lu Huai and you."
