Chapter 69: No Hurry

Before Evan started working on a rice cooker, he was driven by Virginia to work as a porter.

On September 16th, UCLA opens, and Virginia is moving out of the Cabin in the Woods.

Evan didn't stop, he thought Virginia was going to live on campus.

However, when he is directed by Virginia into a neighborhood just three blocks from the UCLA campus, Evan is confused.

"Virginia, you're going to live off-campus?"

"Yes!" Virginia nodded, and suddenly she pointed to a house about twenty meters in front of her, and said, "Just stop in front of that house!"

Evan did so, and after pulling over to the side of the road, he asked, "No...... That one...... Virginia, you're out there these days, just looking for a house, and do you have any money to rent a house?"

Virginia's college tuition is paid by Nina, but she needs to pay for her living expenses or something.

Virginia opened the car door, got out of the car, and then opened the back seat door and took out the few packages that had been placed in the car.

Evan got out of the car, and Virginia gave him a shout, "I'll give you the one in the trunk!"

"Isn't there you in the matter of money?"

Evan scratched his head as he walked towards the car, and said, "Of course it's okay to make me pay!

"But why should you rent another house if you don't live in the school, isn't the 'forest hut' bad? Besides, it's too unsafe for you to live alone. ”

Evan opens the back lid to reveal a yellow cardboard box.

It's full of books, and it's dead.

Virginia walked towards the house with one in her hand, and said with a smile: "What a good brother of mine!"

"But, I'm kidding you, it's just the rent, I can solve it myself. I've already contacted a part-time place, so you don't have to worry. ”

"Also, who told you I lived alone?"

As he spoke, the two of them came to the porch one after the other, and without Virginia taking out the key and knocking on the door, the door opened, revealing a person behind the door.

The man had a turban on his head, a mask on his face, and a tightly wrapped body, and a feather sweep in his hand.

Virginia didn't say hello, but asked in surprise, "It's just cleaning, is it necessary to dress so exaggeratedly?"

The man with only his eyes on his body nodded and said, "Of course, this is the basic operation!"

Because I was wearing a mask, my voice was a little low. Still, Evan recognized it.

"Linda, why are you here?"

He couldn't help but be surprised that at this time, no matter which high school had already started!

Wait a minute?

Evan suddenly remembered Linda's inexplicable phone call.

It turns out that "see you at school" means this.

Linda took off her mask, smiled at Evan, and said, "Long time no see, Evan!"

She got out of the way, Virginia went inside, Evan followed, and Linda obediently followed him.

Evan tilted his head sideways and asked, "Linda, have you been admitted to Caltech?"

Linda shook her head silently.

Evan showed a puzzled expression, since he didn't get in, what does "see you at school" mean?

Virginia, who was walking in front, turned around and said, "LINDA DID RECEIVE AN OFFER FROM CALTECH, BUT UNCLE PROMULAN DIDN'T ALLOW HER TO STUDY PHYSICS, SO NOW SHE AND I ARE IN THE SAME GROUP." ”

Evan nodded knowingly, no wonder Linda looked a little unhappy.

And, if Linda really became a student at Caltech, how could she not come to me all summer.

Evan put the bookcase on the floor of the living room and casually asked, "So, this house is shared by the two of you?"

Linda nodded and said, "For the time being, however, because there are many bedrooms, we plan to recruit roommates and spread the rent evenly." ”

This is a school district house, and the rent is not low. Because Linda insisted on coming to Los Angeles, Gordon Sproul insisted on not giving her living expenses, and only paid the tuition fees. So in order to make a living, she also has to work part-time like Virginia.

Of course, Gordon is so ruthless, not because he has the idea of exercising Linda.

Virginia, who put the package in her room, walked out with her empty hands, saw Evan put the bookcase on the ground, patted his arm dissatisfiedly, and said, "What are you doing on the ground, don't move into my house yet." ”

Evan had to bend down again and pick up the box.

After coming out of Virginia's house, Evan saw that both girls were wearing masks.

"Virginia, Linda, I won't bother you to work......"

Virginia raised her eyebrows and scolded, "As a younger brother, shouldn't you solve problems for your sister?"

Evan smiled and waved at Linda, then left his back to Virginia, "Labor makes people happy, Virginia, I don't want to take away your happiness." See you later, ladies!"

However, before he closes the door and leaves, Evan says to Virginia, "If one day you're sure you can drive on the road without problems, come to me and get a check!"

With that, Evan slammed the door shut.

After Evan left, Virginia pulled down her mask, looked at Linda and said, "That's it...... Not going to Pasadena?"

Linda nodded and said, "That's fine, anyway...... You're still young, aren't you?"

Being young means impulsive, it means variable.

Anything can happen in the future.

Parted...... It's not impossible.

What Evan needs around is not a dancer, but someone to help him...... Who else is this man!

Thinking of this, Linda's heart couldn't help but be full of energy.

……

Evan was only taken aback for a moment by Linda's sudden appearance.

On the way back, he couldn't help but sigh at his charm...... Phew, no, that's wrong!

He lamented that the impulse of adolescent girls is really ...... The heat is overwhelming.

Luckily, I'm not an ordinary person!

Back at the "cabin in the woods", Evan immediately began to work on the construction of "Evan Second Laboratory".

School starts next week, and there are only a few days left to prepare.

found a job, and naturally he didn't go back to ACAH. In this regard, Carl couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly - you are the boss, do you want to be so casual and willful.

Evan said: Not capricious, not casual, is that still a boss?

It took three days for Evan to equip the lab with tools and equipment. That's the good thing about big cities, you can find everything and everything as quickly as possible.

The rice cooker is a kind of electrical appliance that transfers electrical energy into internal energy, its structure is very simple, there are two main components, one is a heater that generates heat, one is a thermostat used to control the temperature, and the other is a simple component such as a container. As a prototype of a prototype, Evan plans to use the existing container, and he has found something that can be used directly. Therefore, all he had to do was make the temperature limiter and the control circuit.

The core component of the temperature limiter is a material called thermal ferrite, which is magnetic, and its magnetic properties change with temperature. When the temperature rises to a certain point (this temperature is called the Curie temperature), the magnetism disappears. Using this characteristic and adding a spring, it is possible to create a switch that controls the temperature.

Thermal ferrite is made by mixing and sintering iron oxides with oxides of other transition metals (commonly manganese, zinc, copper), and by controlling its composition, a thermally sensitive ferrite with a specific Curie temperature can be obtained

For rice cookers, the commonly used control temperature is around 100 degrees Celsius.

Evan couldn't find a ready-made material for him, so he had to ask Carl to help find a professional magnet manufacturer to see if he could customize it.

Without the core components, the rice cooker will naturally not be completed for a while. Evan had to get the other parts ready first.

While waiting for news of the thermal ferrite, Evan made a rice cooker without a temperature limit switch, and then tried to use it a few times, but the result was okay, the rice was cooked, but the bottom of the pot was burnt.
