25 And in the soft waves of the river Cam
It has been more than a month since he came to Cambridge, during which time Chen Muwu did an experiment, discovered a new optical phenomenon, and wrote two papers by the way, which will be published in the July issue of the Bulletin of the Natural Science Society.
He has another purely theoretical paper in his possession, which he intends to make public after a while.
Otherwise, it will take more than a month to publish three papers in a row, and even the donkeys of the production team are not so diligent!
In addition, Chen Muwu also sent the manuscript of "Condor Shooting" to Zhang Xiuyou, a special reporter of "Yishi Bao" who lives in Paris, France, and did not know when the "Yishi Bao" would be able to remit the manuscript fee to him, although he was not short of money now.
After taking a break, Chen remembered that Blackett had told him on the train to London about the swimming spots in the River Cam.
So he also went to a store in Cambridgeshire and bought a one-piece swimsuit, ready to swim in the River Cam and try what it is like to be a aquatic plant "in the soft waves of the River Cam".
In the twenties, there was no nylon, and chemical fibers were not used on a large scale in clothing fabrics, Chen Muwu thought that this swimsuit would be made of cotton, but when he got it, he found that the material made of it was wool.
The one-piece version, coupled with the wool material, has not yet entered the water, Chen Muwu can already think of how much resistance he will bring to himself by wearing this swimsuit.
After changing into a swimsuit in his rented room and putting on a college robe outside, Chen Muwu walked south along the Kang River.
The little black fat man who said cross talk once ridiculed Brother Qian'er who smoked, drank and burned his head on the stage, and said that Qian'er's sister-in-law knitted a pair of woolen underwear for him.
But now, this "woolen panties" is really worn on Chen Muwu's body.
Using wool products to make close-fitting swimsuits, the imagination of today's clothing manufacturers is too wild!
Walking by the Kang River, the more Chen Muwu walked forward, the more awkward he felt, he just looked forward to being able to enter the water quickly, and when he got underwater, would he be able to relieve the current itching feeling?
Fortunately, the swimming place was not far from the campus, and Chen Muwu finally saw the water of the Kang River, and many people were hitting the water in the middle stream.
It's normal that all the people in the water are men, after all, girls are a novelty in Cambridge today.
Although in theory, Cambridge University has begun to accept female students, but it is actively operating......
The only woman who often appears in Chen Muwu's daily life is his landlord, Mrs. Brown.
When he got closer, Chen Muwu also found that a few of them had the most trouble in the water, and they were the people he met by the river before the holiday.
However, this time when they saw Chen Muwu's attitude again, they were much more respectful than before, after all, the robe he wore from the best college of Cambridge University, Trinity College, can also be a symbol of status.
There is a row of wooden boxes by the river that can be used by swimmers entering the water to store clothes and belongings.
After finding an empty box, Chen Muwu stuffed the robe and shoes under his feet into it, and then started a warm-up exercise by the river.
The muscles exposed in his arms and chest clothes are angular, at this time bodybuilding has just emerged, Chen Muwu, the muscles trained by relying on the fitness concept of a hundred years later, make these white chickens playing in the river can't help but look sideways frequently.
"Hey, East Asian, what country are you from? Why have I never seen you in Cambridge before? ”
Someone in the water boldly asked.
"I'm Chinese." Chen Muwu's answer was neither humble nor arrogant.
After finishing speaking, he realized that the English sentence he blurted out had become a vulgar Internet stalk in his previous life.
Everyone in the water and on the shore was silent for a second or two, and then burst into laughter. However, they didn't laugh because they knew what this meme meant.
"No kidding, how can Chinese people have a body and physique? The newspaper said that Chinese people are all big smokers, with yellow faces and thin muscles, and weak physiques, how can you be Chinese? Where is Ling from, Ben or Malaya? ”
The former, the new East Asian powers of recent decades, became the world's third-largest nation in terms of naval capitalship tonnage at the Washington Conference, and although their strength has increased significantly, they are still considered by these unseen Britons to be an inferior race.
The latter is a British colony, which has been ruled by the British for a long time, and can barely be regarded as a king, from an ignorant monkey to a human.
They cited these two countries with obvious intentions, that is, they thought in their hearts that Chen Muwu, who was so personable and athletic, could never be a Chinese.
Chen Muwu didn't plan to deal with these noisy juniors, and after the warm-up, he plunged into the Kang River and disappeared.
For the first ten seconds, the people in the water and on the shore still didn't care, still talking and laughing as just now, Chen Muwu's appearance was just a small episode in the process of their water play.
But after ten seconds, some people were the first to notice the clue: Why hasn't the East Asian just now come out of the water?
"Help! Help! ”
The first few people to react either jumped into the water on the shore or dived directly in the water, and swam as best they could towards the place where Chen Muwu disappeared.
But most of them still have a gloating look on the play, the life of a man who claims to be a Chinese is not worth much in their eyes, even if he is a student at Trinity College.
After another ten seconds, Chen Muwu stepped on the water from thirty or forty meters away and exposed his head.
The sharp-eyed person spotted Chen Muwu for the first time, and he pointed in that direction and shouted: "My God! How did he get so far all at once? Could it be that this Chinese man can't do witchcraft? ”
His shout attracted more people's attention and attention, making them look towards Chen Muwu's position.
The men who had just dived into the water to save the people also stopped, all members of the Cambridge University Swimming and Water Polo Club (CUSWPC), who were preparing for the Cambridge-Oxford Games in London in a little more than a month.
They are the most knowledgeable people in Kanghe now, and after roughly estimating the time and distance of Chen Muwu's swim out, they were shocked.
That's too fast, isn't it? If you can recruit into the club, why not win against the nerds at Oxford?
"Hey! What is your name, sir? ”
Someone shouted at him while drinking water in the direction of Chen Muwu and asked.
"Chen Muwu, no English name."
Hearing Chen Muwu's self-report, there was another uproar at the scene.
"What?"
"He is Chen Muwu?"
"What Chen Muwu? Which Chen Muwu? ”
"It's the Chinese guy who was praised by Einstein for making Eddington beat people and said that time travel might exist."
"Then why is he wearing a Trinity College robe?"
"Grapevine, I heard from the Sulian man who taught me to play mahjong that they recently had a new Chinese genius in their laboratory......"
"No wonder he said that he is Chinese, he does have the confidence and strength to say that he is Chinese!"
"Cut, he must have mastered the technique of time travel to swim so far in such a short time!"
