Chapter 29 Institute of Non-Natural Sciences

   "Well, Lei...Academician Lei, I'm sorry, I want to ask, what major do we study in this special recruitment class?"

  The difference between people is often distinguished by their status. Hearing the name of Academician Lei, Su Xiaofan couldn't help stuttering when he spoke.

  But out of responsibility for his sister, Su Xiaofan still needs to figure out the special features of this special recruitment class.

   "Just call me Teacher Lei, I'm here today to help your parents..."

  Professor Lei said with a smile: "Our special recruitment class is actually an experimental class, which recruits extremely outstanding and potential students. The main content of their studies is a more in-depth study of natural science..."

  Listening to Academician Lei's introduction, Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan not only couldn't solve the confusion, but their faces became more and more confused.

  According to Academician Lei, both Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qingyao have great potential and are suitable to participate in the in-depth study of natural science in the special recruitment class. Anyway, Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan didn't understand much of the talk.

  If they were not sitting in the conference room of Yenching University in person, Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan would probably think that they had encountered a liar. Professor Lei talked so much eloquently, but he didn't get to the point.

   "Ahem, Mr. Lei, I'm sorry, let me interrupt."

  Zhao Zhengshan couldn't bear it anymore, and interrupted the other party, "I want to know, Yaoyao is only a high school student, how can she enter the special recruitment class to do research? Isn't it what they should study in college?"

   "It's studying while studying."

  Lei Songwei said: "This special class itself is organized by the Institute of Natural Sciences. Since it is a special class, it is different from ordinary college students. After graduation, they will all have the identity of a researcher."

   "Mr. Lei, it's not that I question you, but this graduate is a researcher, isn't it a bit too childish?"

  This time it was Su Xiaofan's turn to interrupt the other party, and the more he talked about it, the more unreliable it became. Although Su Xiaofan didn't go to college, he still knew the basic rules.

  Su Xiaofan knows that a researcher is a series of titles in a research discipline, and corresponds to a professor title in the education system.

  Everyone knows that to be promoted to a title within the domestic system, seniority is required.

  Usually two years after graduation from a master’s degree, you are eligible to apply for an intern researcher, and you can apply for an assistant researcher after you have been an intern researcher for more than four years, and an assistant researcher is equivalent to the title of an associate professor.

   It takes five years to become an assistant researcher before applying for the title of researcher.

  In the process from an intern researcher to a researcher, there are still many conditions, such as publishing papers in professional journals, or completing scientific research tasks, etc. Even if you are admitted exceptionally, most people have to be over 30 or 40 years old.

  If according to the teacher Lei's words, Su Xiaoxiao can become a researcher equivalent to a professor after graduation, then Su Xiaofan will absolutely not believe it, unless the researcher title proves to be awarded by a false witness under Tianqiao.

   "Brother, come and see, do you want to sign this thing?"

   Just when Su Xiaofan almost couldn't bear to crack down on fakes, Su Xiaoxiao waved at his brother.

"what?"

  Su Xiaofan walked over, when he was chatting with that Academician Lei just now, Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qingyao also chatted, the two little girls didn't know what they were talking in a low voice.

   "Disclaimer?"

  Su Xiaofan took a piece of paper handed over by his sister, and when he saw the contents inside, he couldn't help frowning.

   "Mr. Lei, this is a bit too much."

  Su Xiaofan raised his head and looked at Lei Donghua, and said, "My sister is here to study at university, not to serve as a soldier to defend the country. What do you mean by making a disclaimer?"

  Su Xiaofan could see clearly that the disclaimer on that piece of paper stated that there might be accidents during the study period, and after signing this statement, the institute would not be held responsible, but the family members would be compensated to a certain extent.

   “It’s just a process.”

  Lei Songwei said: "You know, our official researchers may have accidents when doing research..."

   "Forget it, this school...we won't be enrolled."

  Su Xiaofan shook his head, stood up and said: "Xiao Xiao, you repeat the year this year and take the college entrance examination next year. This is a special recruitment class where you can't explain anything. It's fine if you don't take it."

   "Huh? Bro, it's really too late?"

  Su Xiaoxiao looked at her elder brother with a bitter face. She can enter the top domestic universities without the college entrance examination. Most people can't resist this kind of temptation. Thinking about going back to prepare for the college entrance examination for another 300 days, Su Xiaoxiao just looked reluctant.

   "No unless they can make it clear."

  Su Xiaofan's eyes aimed at Zhao Zhengshan, and found that his face was troubled.

  Different from Su Xiaofan, Zhao Qingyao came to Yanjing to go to school, which was decided by Zhao Hengjian, and Zhao Zhengshan came to send his daughter to school, the right to choose was not in his hands.

   Seeing Su Xiaofan's firm attitude, Professor Lei hesitated for a moment, stood up and said, "Okay, Xiao Su, let's talk in another place. By the way, Mr. Zhao, come here too."

  Su Xiaofan nodded, followed Professor Lei out of the meeting room, and the three came to an office on the second floor.

   "You two, what would you like to drink?" Professor Lei let Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan sit on the sofa in the office.

   "No need." Su Xiaofan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Lei, I have to be responsible to my sister. If you have anything to say, just say it."

   "That's right, you two, how much do you know about natural science?" Lei Songwei paused and said.

   "Natural science?"

Su Xiaofan thought for a while and said: "Natural science should be the six basic disciplines of mechanics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, earth science and life science. I don't know much about the branches and marginal disciplines derived from the natural sciences. .”

Su Xiaofan knew that his younger sister was admitted by the Institute of Natural Sciences of Yenching University, and he also did homework. He wanted to help his younger sister choose a better major, but what he didn't expect was that after arriving, he found that the special recruitment class was a bit of a problem. pit.

   "Well, Xiao Su, you are right." Professor Lei nodded and said, "Actually, our institute is not called the Institute of Natural Sciences, but the Institute of Non-Natural Sciences."

   "What? Not a natural science research institute?" Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan were stunned at the same time, they had never heard of this term before.

   "Yes, it is the Institute of Unnatural Sciences. What we study are all unnatural phenomena, which can also be called supernatural phenomena, which are phenomena beyond the scope of conventional natural science knowledge..."

  Professor Lei's words obviously exceeded Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan's cognition, but compared with before, he made his words clear.

The so-called supernatural phenomenon refers to a force or phenomenon that cannot be seen in nature and cannot be verified by ordinary means. It is beyond the scope of scientific cognition and the limit of contemporary natural science knowledge, and is considered impossible or unexplainable. The phenomenon.

  The reason why Professor Lei has been hesitant to explain clearly is that these phenomena whose authenticity has not been confirmed are usually not recognized by mainstream scientists.

  Supernatural phenomena include human beings with special functions, such as precognition, clairvoyance, idea development, etc., as well as events that occur by chance and cannot be explained by common sense.

  Professor Lei gave the two of them the simplest example, just like the UFO, which is often witnessed by people, is a supernatural phenomenon, and it is also a subject of their research.

  However, the subject of their unnatural research research is far more than just UFO.

  It seems to be beyond the mental state or ability of ordinary people, beyond the physical function of ordinary people, even religious beliefs in various countries, and unnatural phenomena that occur in various regions are all within the scope of their research.

   "Teacher Lei, is it an unnatural phenomenon for ghosts hitting walls in rural areas?"

  Su Xiaofan's heart suddenly moved, he remembered what happened a few days ago.

   "Forget it, this is also a subject of our research." Professor Lei nodded, and said: "Ghost hitting the wall should be a kind of mental confusion caused by magnetic field variation. We have dedicated colleagues who are doing research in this area."

   "By the way, if we have to classify a subject, we can also define our research topic as mysticism."

  After introducing unnatural science to Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan, Professor Lei finally made a summary of his words.

   "Isn't occultism good? Why don't you explain it clearly?"

  After listening to Professor Lei's words, Su Xiaofan has already accepted this subject in his heart. Unlike ordinary people, during this period of time, Su Xiaofan has personally experienced many unnatural phenomena.

   Survived by electric shock and lightning, repair value appears in the mind, body functions are repaired in a short period of time, and ghost hits the wall, Su Xiaofan feels that any of these things can be regarded as unnatural phenomena.

   "Xiao Su, mysticism and non-natural science research are not the mainstream science in this world, so they can't be put on the table."

  Professor Lei gave a wry smile. Although the times have progressed now, it is not as extreme as in medieval Europe. If you encounter heresy, you will be burned to death.

  But for the study of supernatural phenomena, the country still has to consider the acceptance of the people, so as not to cause adverse effects in society, and there is no way to do it with great fanfare.

   "I have another question."

  Su Xiaofan said: "Why did you choose my sister to enter this special recruitment class? Does she have any special features?"

   "It's like this. When our researchers tested your sister, they found that she has super-normal antibodies to some spiritual energy, and Zhao Qingyao is also like this.

  This kind of antibody can be more convenient when doing some research, usually only one in ten million or even lower chances of ordinary people will have similar antibodies..."

   "My sisters are not guinea pigs, are they? Also, just a simple test, can it be concluded that they have mental antibodies?"

  Su Xiaofan had a bad feeling in his heart, his sister had been carrying the Mo Yu Buddha all the time, could it be that the low-level magic weapon Mo Yu Buddha had some influence on the test?
