Chapter 216: The Quality of the Researcher
After more or less dinner, Elena returned to her room with a sad face. Because Lomaria unexpectedly did not reject her, the two of them shared a large room.
"Whoa!
The loud sound of water came from the bathroom, and Yelena couldn't help but think to herself: She's still washing?
However, this is also understandable, after all, Lomaria took half an hour to dig out the feces of the Domumon, and Elena just watched from the sidelines, and she still felt uncomfortable and had a somewhat disgusting appetite. And how much more so did she do it herself, and how much more did she have a habit of cleanliness?
So, as soon as Rolling Maria returned, she went into the bathroom and washed herself in the tub over and over again, and until now she didn't even bother to eat dinner.
Then again, if that's the case, why bother digging up manure in the first place?
This trouble has been haunting Yelena's heart, and she has not even eaten dinner. By now, she couldn't help but want to ask what was going on.
So Elena stepped over to the closed mahogany door to the bathroom. In the bathroom, Romania is soaking in a large tub full of soap bubbles, alternating between her arms with a brush soaked in bath gel.
Her skin is as white as jade and elastic, and it seems to make a "poof" sound when pressed. The shallow curves exposed between the gaps of countless bubbles under the surface of the water faintly outline the graceful wheel.
However, her hands are a very vivid pink color from other parts of the skin under the "click" of the brush bristles.
Judging from the momentum, she seems to be eager to peel off a layer of her skin. And if she could really change her skin, she really wanted to change her whole body. It was only her two arms that had fallen into filthy poop, but she always felt that bacteria would travel all over her body at the speed of light.
But if you think about it, there should be no bacteria or viruses in this game world, that is, even if the poop feels and tastes very real, it is just a collection of numeric codes, so there is nothing to mind at all.
Convincing herself for this reason, Romania also decided to come out of the bathroom several times, but in the end she would still refill the basin with water and wash it again. Even if she can make a judgment intellectually, but emotionally she just doesn't wash and is uncomfortable.
"Alas!"
Exhausted from bathing and bathing, Lomaria couldn't help but let out a bitter sigh. Fortunately, there are eight "Domu Fruits" harvested, otherwise she would really lose more than she gains.
"Knock knock!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the bathroom door. When Romalia looked up, she could see a long-haired figure faintly visible from the frosted glass.
"Elena?"
"Yes, it's me. ”
"Do you want to take a shower? Sorry, just wait a little longer!
As she spoke, Romania brushed her right forearm vigorously.
"That's not the case!" said Yelena hastily denied, "I have some questions to ask. ”
"Huh?" said Romania, confused.
"Why do you do that when you like it so much?"
"Why?" said Romania, a little puzzled, "since the research materials are right in front of you, why not take them?"
"I didn't mean that, but ......" Elena twisted Nini a little hard, because it was somewhat inappropriate to stand in her position and directly say that Lomaria had a cleanliness problem.
However, Romania came to her senses.
"I see, you are puzzled that I am so clean and touch such a thing. ”
"Uh......" Elena was a little embarrassed, "yes, that's it." ”
"To be honest, I didn't think much of it at the time. ”
"And now?" asked Yelena, "Do you regret being like this now?"
"No!" replied Romania categorically without hesitation, "it's the same thing I just said." If the research materials are right in front of you, what reason is there to get them? This is the difference between me and you. ”
"We!" Elena exclaimed.
"Yes!" Lomaria decided to simply take the opportunity to explain something, "you think you have the passion of a researcher, but in reality you are just self-righteous, which is why you are a 'burdensome guild'. ”
"No! we do have ......."
"Vision and passion, interest and career, these are two different things. ”
To Elena's rebuttal, Lomaria interrupted mercilessly.
"Research is a process of identifying problems and then working on them. Its starting point is from reality, and the final result must also return to reality, whether it is simply to solve a puzzle or ultimately to achieve practicality, which is fundamental. But what about you?"
"If that's the case, isn't that what we're doing?"
"No, you're not researching, you're just handing in your homework. ”
"Homework?"
"Not bad. Take the paper you asked me to read before you set off, what problem did your article solve as a result? It's just a matter of facts, and it doesn't even have reference value! It's like a college assignment, setting a topic, and then appropriately finding some other people's works to read and then intercepting them, taking other people's things for granted as their own opinions, and neither examining nor experimenting. Not to mention solving the problem, I don't even know what kind of problem to solve. That's pretty much what you're doing. It's not a study, it's just a game of play. ”
"That's too much, isn't it?
"In that case, why didn't you ask me a single question along the way?" asked Romania in a deep voice.
"What!"
"Along the way, your performance can be described as an excellent follower, but not a good researcher. It seems to me that there are problems that need to be solved along the way, and you don't bring up any of them. Are you embarrassed? Or didn't you notice it at all?"
"......" Elena lowered her head because she was the latter.
"For example, why did the Domu choose the forest we went to today as a migration route?"
"This is...... That's how the system is set up, isn't it?"
"Humph!" Romaria sneered.
This laughter also sent a chill down Yelena's heart, because she herself had noticed that what she said was equivalent to "this thing is like this, there is no why", which is not the attitude that a researcher should have. Even if that's the end result, that's going to be a matter of research.
"This game is extremely realistic, so everything that exists here, from historical changes to flowers and plants, has its own setting and many factors behind it. Everything has a reason, which is the premise of engaging in research in this world, and it can also be said to be a kind of play provided by the system. Your statement simply denies this, and you don't say anything about other people's words, but you think of yourself as a researcher, don't you? To be honest, I don't have the slightest interest in leading people like you who simply claim to be researchers who don't have the slightest bit of researcher quality. ”
After these words, Elena did not say anything more, and her figure departed by the door and window.
Could it really be a bit too much?
Lomaria looked at Elena's shorter figure and couldn't help but think so, but immediately shook her head and banished the thought. When it comes to research, she won't budge!
However, she is not in a position to emphasize the quality of researchers. Because, several times, she interrupted the topic at hand because of the guild's strategy.
Actually, I prefer to concentrate on research rather than strategy!
With that in mind, Romania slackened and sank into the tub.
"Gollum Purr!"
Bubbles are churning on the water.
