The cold morning wind blew across the North Suburb Base.
People were coming and going in the corridor of the laboratory building, so just arriving for work, so just finishing, and so who couldn’t leave yet.
In the electron microscope laboratory, there was a sowhat outdated cryo-electron microscope, covered with printed paper guidelines and operational specifications... This was the equipnt brought by Professor Fang. It was his precious treasure, ticulously cared for, and no one was allowed to ss with it.
Beside it, at the computer desk, Qu Hailou adjusted her glasses.
She took a sip of hot water and operated the mouse with her right hand to open the attachnt in the email, which contained code sent by Bai Mo.
"Hmm... Expert Bai Mo can do this too?"
Following the instructions in the email, she ticulously operated the fitting software, opened the algorithm editor, and replaced the existing code with Bai Mo’s.
Click save.
Beep!
A pop-up window appeared.
[The original code has been successfully backed up]
[This edit will be recorded in the log and copied to the administrator]
[Would you like to confirm the edit of the fitting algorithm?]
Qu Hailou paused for a mont.
"Did Professor Fang set up this confirmation step himself?"
She suddenly recalled that there was indeed soone in Professor Fang’s team working on fitting algorithms and doing algorithm optimization.
"Never mind."
Click [Confirm]!
Exit the editor, return to the fitting interface, and use the projected image to click [Start Fitting].
The progress bar for the fitting popped up, and the fan in the computer case started whirring as if it were shouting, "Here cos a big task"!
Qu Hailou casually moved the mouse, only to find that even the cursor was moving sluggishly on the screen, suggesting that the computer was struggling.
Footsteps sounded, and in ca Professor Fang, with a square face and a flat top haircut. He circled around, checked his precious equipnt, and then approached Qu Hailou’s side.
He had just received an email notifying him of Qu Hailou’s changes to the algorithm and ca over to see the excitent.
Hearing the whirring of the computer fan, he frowned.
"Xiaoqu, you’re making such a big modification... could it be caught in an infinite loop? Haha."
His team was currently developing this algorithm, and the fitting software implented their latest and best results. To him, Qu Hailou’s ddling with the algorithm seed unnecessary and excessive.
Qu Hailou smiled awkwardly.
Sitting there, she watched the progress bar.
"Professor Fang, are you here?"
Mo Lanyou ca in with a docunt, noticing Qu Hailou. He approached, took a look at the computer screen, and had a mischievous grin on his face.
"You’re not trying to analyze the Immortal Grass, are you?
"Haha, hahaha."
He had worked with this before, knowing that the components of Immortal Grass were so unique that they couldn’t be purified. A single solution of Immortal Grass contained at least three or four mixed molecules, making it impossible to analyze!
Qu Haolou nodded, gave an awkward laugh, and continued watching the progress bar.
The progress bar jumped rapidly, quickly going from thirty to fifty, and then from fifty to eighty.
Both Professor Fang and Mo Lanyou grinned but didn’t hurry away, standing nearby and whispering in conversation.
"The cultivation of Array Inspection Grass encountered difficulties. These few paraters... see if you can help..."
Before they finished speaking, Qu Hailou’s eyes suddenly shone, and she grinned!
"It’s done!"
Hmm?
Both craned their heads forward.
Four windows suddenly popped up on the desktop.
Each window contained a complex 3D structure that could be manipulated with the mouse.
Professor Fang paused for a mont, instinctively reaching for the mouse in Qu Hailou’s hand, and dragged the structures around.
"Is this even possible?
"Is it fake?
"Just a fluke?"
As a researcher in this field, he was aware of the complexity involved!
Generating a single image was already complex.
Generating two simultaneously was already a major challenge for top teams at leading universities!
No one had even considered generating multiple images simultaneously.
What’s the deal with Qu Hailou and this algorithm?
Mo Lanyou paused for a mont, instinctively stepping forward, elbowing Professor Fang aside to grab the mouse and drag the 3D structures around.
"Are these... the components inside Immortal Grass?
"Is it real?
"These two aren’t the sa, are they?
"Ah, they’re not. One is left-handed, the other is right-handed; they have different chirality.
"Is this structure so complex...?
"Can Immortal Grass be analyzed from now on?"
Professor Fang and Mo Lanyou had their eyes wide open and were trembling slightly.
"Quick, open the algorithm editor and check the source code!"
Mo Lanyou frowned.
"What’s the point of checking the source code? I can’t understand it anyway."
He was into biochemistry, unfamiliar with code and algorithms.
Professor Fang elbowed Mo Lanyou aside and grabbed the mouse.
"This is my field; I can understand it!"
Within monts, he opened the editor and saw the source code, leaning forward to stare at the screen.
Qu Hailou sat in front of the computer, watching the two bending over, bumping into each other, feeling slightly awkward... Should she stand and offer her seat?
Is Expert Bai Mo’s code that impressive?
Before she could finish her dilemma, she saw Professor Fang staring at the screen with a frown, his expression collapsing... He really didn’t get it!
"Who wrote this code? Can we get them to explain it?"
"Hahaha, this is great news, wonderful news, I’ll call Professor Zhang to share the joy!"
As Qu Hailou was about to speak, there was a "bang" as the iron laboratory door closed on its own.
The computer screen suddenly behaved as if it caught a virus; windows started closing by themselves.
A large red alert box erged on the desktop, with a simple line of text inside.
