Chapter 22 22【Not interested in being friends with you】
In the next few days, Xiang Nandu and Gable House collaborated to create "Using the Density of Celestial Objects in the Kuiper Belt to Limit Its Elemental Composition and Formation History".
Howard returned to his former Mars rover project team and continued to explore Mars; Leslie also continued his own research on symbolic lepton supersymmetry.
The three of them only get together after get off work at night to discuss the superfluid vortex experiment.
For one thing, designing an experiment is not a one-time job. After some scientific theories are put forward, it often takes years or even decades to design experiments to verify their authenticity.
In the play, nearly a year has passed since Leonard and Sheldon proposed the superfluid surface tension to the official superfluid vortex experiment.
One, the three of them each have research projects. If they abandoned these projects and only worked on quantum navigation systems, the school would never agree.
In the play, when Sheldon found that his string theory research had reached a dead end and had not made any progress for a long time, when he wanted to switch to research on the theory of cosmic inflation, he was banned by the school.
The reason is that the school hired him to study string theory, and his research funds can only be used for string theory, and he is not allowed to change fields without permission.
And their research projects must also have scientific research results. Otherwise, the project is cancelled, and they risk being fired.
In the play, Rajesh was almost deported because the project was canceled because he failed to test the composition of Neptune objects.
Before Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie deduced superfluid surface tension, it only took a few days. As long as you take a vacation and be lazy, you can cover up the past, but it won't work if you stay like this.
Therefore, they are busy with their own projects now, and they are only busy with experiments in their free time.
…
"Raj, Howie~" During lunch, Leonard sat down with the meal, "You have to help me persuade Sheldon."
"What happened to him?" Howard asked curiously.
"After he was dismissed by Dr. Gablehouse, he now stays at home every day and keeps changing research projects. The day before yesterday he studied scrambled eggs, yesterday he studied luminous fish, and today he even bought a textile machine. Machine..." Leonard said helplessly, holding his forehead.
"Wow, really?! Then I'm going to open my eyes." Howard said excitedly when he heard it.
"Howie, now is not the time to gloat, our friends need our help." Leonard said seriously.
"Leonard, how do you want us to help him?" Xiang Nan said, "Actually, we all understand that the best way to solve this matter is for Sheldon to apologize to Dr. Gablehouse.
But with his arrogant and self-important character, how can he bow his head and apologize? Even our persuasion is useless, when will he listen to our advice? "
"Yeah, Sheldon always only thinks he is right, when did he hear what we said." Howard also shook his head and said, giving up hope of persuading Sheldon to apologize.
"Then what should we do, do nothing and watch him go to waste?" Leonard asked urgently.
He admitted that Xiang Nan was right. He had persuaded Sheldon many times, but it was always useless, so he asked Xiang Nan and Howard for help.
"That's not true, he is our friend anyway." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "My suggestion is, since we can't persuade him, why don't we find someone who can persuade him?"
Hearing what he said, Leonard's eyes lit up immediately, "Hey, Raj, what a great idea, I never thought of it."
"Oh, what bad idea did you come up with?!" Howard shook his head and complained, "Let him stay at home for a few more days and let us enjoy some more clean days, isn't it good?"
…
Mom goes out, one is worth two.
At the request of his mother, Sheldon obediently apologized to Dr. Gablehouse, and then returned to work at Caltech.
"Welcome back, Sheldon~" During lunch, the four sat together again, and Xiang Nan greeted with a smile.
"Huh~" Sheldon put on a dirty face.
"What's the matter?" Xiang Nan wondered, he hadn't provoked Sheldon recently, so he didn't know why he was throwing face.
"It was you who suggested Leonard to find my mother." Shelton stared at Xiang Nan with wide eyes, and condemned him, "I am now issuing you the first warning."
"What?! You gave me a warning for this reason?" Xiang Nan was surprised, "I did this for your own good."
"I'm an adult, I can take care of my own affairs. And, no matter what happens to me, I shouldn't look for my mother." Sheldon said plausibly.
"OK, since you are an adult, why don't you dare to drive, go to the dentist, or fetch meals by yourself, and ask so many friends to help you?" Seeing that he was ungrateful, Xiang Nan blamed himself No, he immediately said angrily.
"Otters want to eat clams, so they know how to hit them with stones. In my opinion, you are my tools." Sheldon said confidently, and then stretched out two fingers, "Also, this is the second warning! Three times Warning, you're out!"
"OK, just give the third warning. I'm not interested in being friends with someone who only treats me as a tool." Xiang Nan said angrily, then picked up his own food and sat down at another table.
"Raj, come back, Sheldon didn't mean that." Seeing this, Leonard hurriedly intervened.
Xiang Nan ignored it.
Breaking off ties with Sheldon would do more good than harm to him.
Selton is selfish, has a vicious tongue, conceited and low EQ, and likes to show off and grab credit. Whoever cooperates with him will be unlucky.
Before, Raj stayed with him mainly because of loneliness.
He has no friends in the United States, only Leonard, Howard, and Sheldon. In addition, several people have similar interests and can play together, so in order to avoid loneliness, even if there are some grievances, they will bear it.
But now Raj is not alone, he has normal communication skills and can make more friends. Moreover, he is now busy with scientific research and projects, such as game night, comic night, easter egg shooting, etc., and he hasn't been there for a long time.
Therefore, breaking off relations with Sheldon now will not affect his life, but it will make him stay away from troublemakers and live a happier life.
Seeing that Xiang Nan had made up his mind to go, Leonard couldn't help sighing depressedly.
Howard looked at Sheldon, then at Xiang Nan, then stood up, and sat down in front of Xiang Nan with a meal.
The quartet broke up.
Leonard frowned even more when he saw this.
He didn't have many friends in the first place, so he lost two of them in one meal.
"Are you happy now?!" He looked at Sheldon depressedly and said.
"Why am I unhappy?" Sheldon said indifferently, "Reducing meaningless social interactions will allow me to focus more on work."
"My God!" Leonard is really starting to regret finding Sheldon's mother now. If I had known this would be the result, it would be better to let him stay at home for a few more days.
