Chapter 16: Confession Failure

Qi Min came up with the idea of brain-computer combination, and then began to check the literature and design experiments. She plans to use the 256×256×256 miniature brain-like bodies that were generated before to cooperate with rats for experiments, but to connect the rat's brains with the brain-like bodies, this connection interface should be well designed.

However, fortunately, compared with the brain-like body, it is a new concept, and the research in the field of brain-computer integration has been carried out for a long time, and now many people in the world are doing this work. Qi Min soon found a new technology called "minimally invasive callosum interface". This is done by inserting a special non-damaging miniature electrode into the corpus callosum area, which can not only capture the electrical signals of brain activity, but also release the electrical signals in a corresponding way, so as to achieve the purpose of brain-computer integration.

(Note: This technology is fictional, of course, the brain-like body itself is also fictional, please remind this article that this article is science fiction, please don't take it seriously)

So Qi Min contacted the research group that developed the "minimally invasive callosum interface", but the development group was at the Paris High School in France. There was no cooperation between the Chinese Technical University and the European school, but it happened that the owner of the callosum interface research group was a fan of Althusser, and he also had a good impression of China. JUST IN TIME FOR THE OPEN ACCESS PROTESTS IN PARIS IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR, THE PI OF THE PARIS MASTER IMMEDIATELY AGREED TO SEND QI MIN A DOZEN PHYSICAL OBJECTS OF MINIMALLY INVASIVE CALLOSUM INTERFACES, WITH A SPECIFIC STRUCTURE DIAGRAM OF THIS THING.

This brain-computer combination experiment opened up the situation at once. Qi Min was so moved by this international friend of socialism that he hurriedly wrote a letter of thanks and immediately began to arrange animal experiments.

The school needs to be approved by the ethics committee to conduct animal experiments, but in addition to approval, what is more difficult for Qi Min is that there is no one to operate. Rats are much more difficult to serve than EPS cells, and Qi Min can't expect Wang Xin and Chen Linyou, two novices, to get this done. What's more, they still have to do cell control experiments, and if they spend more time on animal experiments, the cell part will not be completed, which will affect the publication of articles.

So she wanted to find someone to help with the animal experiments. After thinking about it, Qi Min felt that it would be best if he could ask Hua Ruiming for a while. He happened to be doing rat experiments, and he hasn't been very busy lately, so if he was asked to help and get a name, his boss wouldn't be unhappy.

However, after learning the lessons learned from the previous time when he went to researcher Zhou Xiaoshan, Qi Min went directly to Hua Ruiming's doctoral supervisor, Professor Bai Shihong of the Department of Medicine.

Professor Bai Shihong is also an older teacher in the school, and he usually doesn't push students, but he will also think about them.

After that, Qi Min happily went to find Hua Ruiming.

However, because this is not a trivial matter and may take a lot of time, Qi Min did not rashly tell Hua Ruiming on WeChat, but asked him out of school for dinner first.

A new Japanese restaurant has opened outside the south gate of the school, and there are many discounts as it has just opened. Qi Min set the place where he made an appointment for dinner, and felt that the quieter environment of the Japanese restaurant was conducive to discussing academic topics.

However, what Qi Min didn't expect was that Hua Ruiming came a little stuck, but he wore a brand-new black suit and brought a large handful of white roses.

Qi Min watched in amazement as he walked over to his table and handed the bouquet of white roses to her.

"What is this...... Is it? Qi Min asked a little stunned.

"For you." Hua Ruiming deliberately said in a normal tone, "I saw that the flower shop on the road was selling very good, so I bought it." ”

"That's really...... Thank you. Qi Min didn't know what to say, thinking that he probably misunderstood what she meant by inviting him to dinner.

The bouquet of white roses was inserted in a vase brought by the waiter, and because of their proximity, the fragrance they emitted was clearly audible. In fact, the cut flowers called roses are mostly hybrids of the traditional Chinese moon season and other European rose plants, and the most common one is the perfume moon season. As the name suggests, this flower gives off a fragrance that is as strong as a perfume and mixed with the scent of tea.

However, if the source of the aroma is placed next to the food, it will also reduce the smell of the food, which is manifested as being absent-minded while eating.

This kind of atmosphere is not very suitable for talking about experiments, Qi Min was thinking about what this buddy meant, and suddenly Hua Ruiming, who was sitting opposite, asked casually: "By the way, do you want to find another boyfriend?" ”

Qi Min moved his gaze from the plate to his face, and paused for two seconds before replying, "I didn't think about it." ”

"Why?" Hua Ruiming hurriedly asked, "Didn't you break up?" ”

"I ...... There are so many things to do, and I don't have time to think about it. Qi Min replied in disguise.

"Hmm...... But you still have time to eat. Hua Ruiming said, "And I also have time to climb the mountain on weekends, and I usually play games." ”

Qi Min was speechless. Thinking about it like this, she seems to have a little bad conscience, and she doesn't know how Mimi is doing now, and she can still have such a good time. But she felt that Anton was unilaterally going to cut off relations with her, and she couldn't stop her, right?

But finding a boyfriend is another thing. Although Qi Min felt that proper entertainment was not a big deal, she would not be immoral enough to pit another young man who had nothing to do with this matter, especially Hua Ruiming was the first new friend she met after returning to China.

"I'm just doing it...... it's just ordinary entertainment," Qi Min tried to explain, "No matter how busy you are, you have to relax, don't you?" ”

This argument seems a little too weak. She is so "relaxed" mostly with Hua Ruiming, Wang Xin and Chen Linyou, which shows that what she needs is not a solitary rest. And it's normal to hang out together, play games, and develop into boyfriend and girlfriend.

Hua Ruiming did not comment immediately, but switched to another topic after a few seconds: "I don't quite understand, since you have been 'broken up', what can't you let go?" ”

"It's a bit of a special situation." Qi Min just avoided the question.

"That'...... Your ex-boyfriend, what does he do? Hua Ruiming asked again.

"Takeaways." That's an easy question to answer.

However, Hua Ruiming obviously didn't believe it: "I'm just curious about ......"

"It's really a food delivery." Qi Min said calmly, "So you can think about it from another perspective, if you have a girlfriend when you are studying for a doctorate, for example, you work as a waiter in a restaurant, and you earn 3,000 yuan a month, but you use it to pay your rent." And then one day you make a mistake and get her in big trouble, so she wants to break up with you, and you think about whether you should break up or not? ”

Hua Ruiming couldn't help but be stunned.

Qi Min sighed and said, "If you don't break up, it's someone who broke up with you unilaterally, and you can't stop it." If you divide it, you used to use other people's salaries, but now you run away when people are in trouble, don't you think this is a bit unconscionable? ”

Hua Ruiming looked at her for a while before looking away, and said with some regret: "So that's the case." ”

However, he added a sentence with some reluctance to give up: "But after all, this is the breakup mentioned by the other party, maybe people don't want your help at all?" ”

"People don't want it, it's not the same thing as not helping you." Qi Min said, "Metaphysically, whether or not a person who engages in scientific research can produce results depends on luck, and those who are not good in character will not have too good luck." ”
