"What did you say?" Eric, who was almost 50 years old, looked at her student and Lu Li, who was standing next to her.
"Uh, Eric, listen to me!”Jane looked a little awkward. It was weird to suddenly bring someone over. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but Lu Li had helped her get her car back in the morning. She had a good impression of him and invited him over.
"Jane, I, let's talk to the side!”Eric opened his mouth and looked at Lu Li, who was standing next to Jane. He then pulled Jane to the side.
"Who is he? Bring him back, don't be deceived!”Eric lowered his voice as he spoke to Jane. He was wary of his student suddenly bringing an unknown person into the lab. He had been a PhD holder for decades and knew how dangerous society was. Lu Li could be a liar or a spy. There were many things in this world.
"Eric, he's my friend. My car was stolen today, and he helped me get it back. He can catch up to me on foot!”Jane suddenly said excitedly.
"Chase them on foot!" Eric felt as if he had heard a myth. He turned his head and looked at Lu Li, who was looking around. Other than his bright eyes, his body was slender and beautiful, but he wasn't strong at all. How could someone like him run at this speed?
" It's true. He had nowhere to go, so I..." Jane lowered her voice and begged her supervisor. This old professor of astronomy was a very good person.
"Yes!" Lu Li's earlobes twitched. He was happy that Jane had taken care of him. He turned around and looked around the room. It was a mess. There were some professional instruments that he didn't recognize. However, in front of a notebook on the table, he saw a thesis manuscript with the beginning.
"Forster's theory?" Lu Li frowned and glanced at it. This theory was written by Jane, because it was Jane's last name. Although this paper was only a small one and wasn't complete, it wasn't even the beginning. There were a lot of jargon mixed in, and Lu Li couldn't understand it. However, in summary, it was a spatial technology theory that went from one end of the universe to the other.
"Eric, please do me a favor! I've already promised him that I'll let him help out here.”Just as Lu Li was reading Jane's thesis, Jane pleaded with Eric.
"But the research fees of the laboratory are no longer enough to pay his salary!”Eric had never seen Jane beg for mercy for a boy, but he had his own difficulties. Not many people were interested in astrophysics, so his annual research funding was pitifully small. There were only him and Jane in the entire laboratory. Not many students came to intern, and the sponsorship he could get was pitifully small.
"I see!" Jean was stunned when she heard Eric's words. She also knew about the funding problem. This year's research funding had almost been spent, but a lot of equipment was still not ready.
"I really don't have a choice. If, um, he doesn't need a salary, we might be able to provide food and accommodation for him.”Eric said with a bitter smile.
" I…" Jane wanted to agree, but she was too embarrassed to tell Lu Li about this.
"Hey, Jane, did you write this?”Lu Li pointed at the half-typed thesis on the computer and said to Jane.
"Ah, yes, you understand? Ah, I mean, I wrote it, there was only one theory.”Jian Zheng was struggling. When she heard Lu Li's words, she looked at the thesis in her notebook and nodded.
"I don't understand, but can you really do it with the space technology of 'reaching the other end of the universe'?”Lu Li said in a serious tone. If such technology existed, he might be able to travel in the universe. His cultivation system was not mature at all. He only had a smattering of knowledge. It was partly based on the Kung Fu he learned from the Book of Swords and martial arts, and partly based on scientific theories. If he could go to a high-level civilization in the universe, he might be able to perfect his cultivation system.
"This, I don't know either. This is just the beginning. I still have many experiments to do. I need to test the gravity anomaly and cosmic particle flow.”Jane shook her head.
"Oh!" Lu Li listened to Jane. He didn't understand terms like gravity anomaly and cosmic particle flow!
"Uh, um, Mr. Calcifer!”Eric looked at Jane and decided to explain himself.
"Hmm? Dr. Selvig?" Lu Li turned to look at the 50-year-old doctor.
" Well, our laboratory's funds are actually not enough. I think..." Eric found it a little embarrassing to say this.
"Well, I don't need a salary. To be honest, I don't lack money. Yes, I'm sorry. I heard what you said.”Lu Li said with a smile as he looked at the old doctor.
"Uh-huh!" Eric was suddenly stuck. How should he put it? Lu Li's 'no lack of money' was a bit sarcastic.
"No, that's not what I meant. I mean, uh, in short, my situation is very special, and it's not convenient for me to tell you.”Lu Li scratched his head. It was hard for him to explain his situation. He couldn't possibly tell them that he was an alien.
"Alright then! I know, I know. Um, what do you study? Let me see. Maybe you can help us!”Eric listened to Lu Li's words and nodded. He couldn't say anything about Lu Li's words. Let's be more practical!
"Sorry, I haven't learned much, but I know some medical skills. I can treat superficial injuries and so on. In addition, I can help with cleaning and cooking.”Lu Li glanced at the messy house. He might be able to do something opportunistic, but he really couldn't do something professional.
"Oh!" Jane looked into Lu Li's eyes and subconsciously scanned the room. She wanted to cover her face. Her room was also in such a mess.
"Oh, this really seems to be what we need!”Eric listened to Lu Li's words and looked at the messy room. His face suddenly turned red. He was almost 50 years old, and although he had the title of a doctor, he was actually quite poor. He had no choice as the things he studied were too unpopular. At this time, humans on Earth were still focused on electronic physics, biotechnology, and so on. No one cared about astronomy and the universe at all. Moreover, the current technology on Earth was not up to standard, so he couldn't be like other doctors who had a personal assistant. There were also secretaries and whatnot.
"What do you think?" Lu Li said as he looked at the red-faced Professor and Jane.
"Of course, welcome to my team!”Eric immediately nodded. Although Lu Li didn't know anything, he had no reason to reject a free personal assistant!
