"It’s not a physical ability..."
Zhao Yi was slightly disappointed that he didn’t evolve towards becoming a superhero. Everyone has a dream to be a superhero when they’re kids. However, as they grow up, they realize it’s impossible and suppress this dream.
Now, he has to keep suppressing it.
Alright then.
Accepting it was the only option.
Zhao Yi clenched his lips tightly, his thoughts returning to his new power, "Relying on real-world conditions to see through vague connections between things?"
"Things, vague connections?"
"It requires a connection to the real world..."
"What does that an?"
Just like the previous three powers, the system’s explanation was vague. He could generally understand it ant finding connections.
But, what kind of connections?
This would have to be explored through the use of his power.
Zhao Yi decisively left the staff dormitory, planning to fill his stomach at the cafeteria. As he was walking on the path beside the small sports field, two beautiful girls were coming towards him.
Zhao Yi didn’t react to who they were but stared at the books in their hands.
Books are definitely considered objects.
"Correlation Law!"
He used "Correlation Law" on the girls’ books, and information appeared in his mind, "They are both from the library?"
"Was that really necessary?"
Using it this ti didn’t deplete any of his energy, which was the only comforting aspect.
Zhao Yi swiftly shifted to another topic, "Trousers, cotton coats, use ’Correlation Law’!" Once he used his new ability on their outfits, he imdiately learnt the material of their clothes...
Close enough!
"Do they have anything in common, being made of a large amount of cotton material?"
"Isn’t that obvious?"
Zhao Yi tugged at his lips, almost unwilling to believe he would obtain such mundane results. But on second thought, it was quite normal.
Conditions, huh!
Without any conditions and no energy consumption, a conclusion was already a bonus.
The two girls had already noticed Zhao Yi from a distance. They walked toward him, one of them even had a hearty laugh, calling out, "Zhao Yi!"
"Hmm."
Zhao Yi then realized it was Xu ngyan and Zhou Tingting.
If it was a normal day, eting two beautiful girls on the road, he would have definitely joked around with them.
Now... sorry!
His ’Flirting Point’ quota for today was maxed out.
Zhao Yi, lacking energy, waved his hand symbolically as the two girls approached. Xu ngyan jokingly asked, " Heard a female schoolmate from outside visited you today?"
"High school classmate... Who told you?" What Zhao Yi cared about more was the latter part.
"Li Renzhe did!"
Xu ngyan directly spilled the informant’s na, "He was talking about it with Fan Lei. I asked him about it, then he told ."
"Oh."
Zhao Yi secretly cursed Li Renzhe for falling for a pretty face this easily, not even able to keep a secret. His acts of coolness were all for nothing.
Zhao Yi lost interest in the ensuing interaction.
Xu ngyan initiated a few conversations, only to receive ’Hmm’, ’Ah’ in response. Seeing the interaction hitting a brick wall, she asked cautiously, "Are you feeling okay today?"
"What is it?"
"You’re not usually like this." Xu ngyan turned to Zhou Tingting, questioning, "Right?"
"Yeah, I think so too." Zhou Tingting imdiately lent her support.
"Just lost in thoughts."
Zhao Yi casually explained. Unexpectedly, the other party was able to carry the conversation forward, "Are you pondering over the Goldbach Conjecture?"
"Huh?"
"A lot of people know that you are researching the Goldbach Conjecture."
Xu ngyan’s giggling explanation caused a scowl on Zhao Yi’s face. He rely applied for the Goldbach Conjecture project, why does it seem like the whole school was aware?
Isn’t this overkill?
Though it doesn’t really matter if many people know about it, facing people who speak of his research on the Goldbach Conjecture day in and day out...
The main issue is, he hasn’t made any significant progress yet!
Researching world-class problems is best done silently and humbly. If the research is successful, great; if not, no harm done.
He applied for the project because he felt it would be a waste not to, considering his position as a professor. Moreover, he didn’t have any other ongoing projects under his na.
"I wouldn’t have applied if I had known." Zhao Yi was beginning to regret his decision and noted down Li Renzhe in his mind.
Most likely, Li Renzhe was a significant contributor to propagating the news around the school.
Dammit...
"If this guy pursues postgraduate studies in the future, I’ll definitely force him to join ... At that point, I won’t let him pass!"
"I’ll make him do all the grunt work!"
"No, that’s too far away. Well, this is good too. Next ti he sses up, I’ll feel a little better. He deserves it!"
After ntally grumbling for a while, Zhao Yi parted ways with Xu ngyan and Zhou Tingting. When they were about ten ters away, he twisted back and used "Correlation Law" again.
This ti, it was against Xu ngyan and Zhou Tingting themselves.
Are humans considered things?
The system feedback provided an answer: humans could indeed be categorized as things. Probably, to the system, there wasn’t much difference between humans and other animals.
His feedback was, "They are roommates living in the sa dorm, BFFs, friends."
Wasn’t this obvious?
Exhaling deeply, Zhao Yi felt it was sowhat useful, at least in determining interpersonal relationships.
For instance, if he saw an old man of seventy or eighty walking with a young, vibrant woman on the street.
Would they be a legitimate couple enduring an affair or a sugar baby situation?
