I Have Decided to Go Look for My Father - Chapter 209

Chapter 209 – “There will be no need for that. I respect the organizer’s decision.” (3)

“As such, I truly hope that you will be able to proof the rationality behind your project,” said Teacher Yu definitively.

Gu Xi was touched when she heard that. She nodded at her and said, “Thank you. We will come up with the proof that we need.”

“Good.” Teacher Yu gave Gu Xi a reassuring smile and handed her a number. “This is my number and also the number of my WeChat account. If you need help at any point, feel free to contact me. I will be happy to provide you with reasonable guidance on a personal level.”

“Thank you.”

……

After Teacher Yu had departed, Dong Mingming took Gu Xi’s hand and shook it. “Oh yeah, Gu Xi, you said earlier that you are going to prove it. Do you have any idea how to go about doing that?”

“What I have in mind right now is to create a detailed flow chart and, step by step, demonstrating that each step of the way is rational with existing technology or examples.”

It is much like proofing in mathematics. If each step of the way is correct, then the result must also be correct.

Except that, with a flow like this, they would no longer be creating a simple prototype but a real complete “product”.

In addition, the process would involve perusing a large amount of material, labeling each step of their way, and ensure that every step was backed by solid proof.

That would be very difficult to accomplish but it was also the only idea that Gu Xi could come up with.

“I’ll do it with you,” said Sheng Xiuyan all of a sudden. Meeting Gu Xi’s eyes, he said, “It would be faster with the both of us. Besides, I am more familiar with the handling of information in the middle portion than you are.”

“Alright,” said Gu Xi as she nodded.

Dong Mingming, too, leaped out and raised her hand. “And me! Me too!”

“Mmm. I might not be of much help, but I can help with the researching. If there are foreign articles, I can help with the translation as well.”

Welp, she relative strength was only literature and English being around the two valedictorians.

“But.” Something occurred to Dong Mingming and, looking disturbed, Dong Mingming said, “What if they denied that they had said it when we presented them with the proofs.”

Gu Xi, “I’ve recorded our conversation secretly.”

Sheng Xiuyan, “I’ve recorded our conversation.”

Said the two almost at the same time.

Dong Mingming, “……” I apologize. This scum of academia was only here to pull their legs.

After taking off from the competition’s building and after some discussions, the three agreed on their specific plans and timing.

After returning to school, the three entered into the evidence-collecting state. In between classes, lunch, weekend. They used almost every single of their time.

What was surprising to Gu Xi was that Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi also came over to help out. Even Gu Yanlin was somehow able to sneak into HSAU’s library in the afternoon.

With the addition of this genius Big Brother, their process of sorting through things had improved greatly.

While Gu Xi was busy with the ‘proof’ and inside a certain office of the competition organizer, an upper management personnel also felt regretful while having Gu Xi’s team’s topic in his hand.

“It is quite amazing that some junior high school students were able to come up with an idea like this. It’s much better than a lot of topics proposed by senior high school student,” lamented Manager Xu as shook his head.

Manager Yang, another manager, was a bit surprised when he heard that. “This one is from a junior high school team?”

“Yeah.”

“Let me take a look.”

Manager Yang took the materials from Manager Xu. He had only intended to take a look at the candidates’ information and see which awesome high school that they were from. The second that he saw their names, Manager Yang’s eyes widened.

“What’s the matter?” asked Manager Xu.

Manager Yang looked up at Manager Xu. Pointing at a name on the material, he asked, “Do you know how this Gu Xi is?”

“Who is she?” Manager Xu looked baffled. He had no idea why Manager Yang was so nervous all of a sudden.

“Daughter of Gu Shao!”
