The Daily Life of American Drama Detective

Chapter 58 I don’t drink

"do not talk!"

Professor John Harper covered his head and shouted.

"I'm going to say it today!"

Professor Alicia Harper drank the red wine in her glass, and her flushed face became excited: "Damn it, John, you are a scientist! You should have been a great and pure scientist! But look at you now! For science

You are supposed to guide him with a scientific attitude towards his future, but you get involved in those damn politics, and what you talk about is not mathematical formulas, but what do you talk about?"

"do not talk!!!"

Professor John Harper stood up suddenly, waved his hands, swept the dinner plate in front of him and smashed it to the floor.

He walked around there, muttering things like, "Stop talking," "I'm right," "You don't understand," and so on. Then he suddenly opened the door and ran out.

"this……"

Monica was shocked and looked at Professor Alicia Harper questioningly.

"Don't worry about him! He will just run to his office. There are medicines there... He will be fine in a few days. I'm sorry to excuse you."

Professor Alicia Harper turned her back, said something, and walked to the bedroom.

Monica looked around the crowd and saw little Sheldon's face was stiff with an expression of fear. Beverly and Chuck continued to eat indifferently. Peggy asked Chuck with an unchanged smile: "My understanding is correct.

wrong?"

"Yes, you understand my words better than me."

Chuck nodded.

Peggy looked at Monica proudly.

Monica no longer knew what expression to make. Her good-natured character made her couldn't help but get up and walk to the bedroom: "I'll go see her."

"Sheldon, you should be lucky. If you had been born twenty years earlier, you might have been another Professor John Harper."

Peggy saw Sheldon's face full of fear and was still stunned, knowing that he hated this kind of quarrel, so she couldn't help teasing him.

"No, I won't become him!"

little Sheldon screamed.

"Yes, you really can't, because you won't have a wife."

Peggy nodded in agreement.

"It seems that finding a husband who is more vulnerable is not completely without benefits."

Beverly commented calmly: "In the past, I always disliked Rachel and Mike's father, who was just a useless anthropologist who couldn't even be called a scientist. But now it seems that if John had been chosen, it would have been hard to say in terms of sexual well-being, but

You will get more angry unnecessarily because of arguments.”

In the bedroom, Professor Alicia Harper, who was in tears, was comforted by Monica. She wiped away her tears, raised her head slightly and tried not to lose her composure before walking out. When she heard these words, her passionate eyes

The tears surging in my heart couldn't stop overflowing even if I looked up.

"ok, I understand."

When Beverly saw it, she raised her glasses with a look of understanding.

I didn’t choose John at the beginning, and the last trace of regret was gone.

Anyway, you have to rely on yourself.

"Sorry, I made you laugh."

Professor Alicia Harper wiped away her tears and forced a smile.

"It's not funny. He's studying P=NP?"

Chuck asked calmly.

The P=NP problem is a mathematical problem derived from a mathematical game proposed by Irish mathematician William Hamilton in 1859. Now in 1991, there is no statement about the seven millennium mathematical problems. Wait until 7 years later, when there is such a statement

, this math problem is one of the Millennium Mathematics Problems. Anyone who solves it will not only receive a reward of 1 million US dollars, but also a supreme honor.

"right……"

Professor Alicia Harper nodded, opened her mouth, and wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words that came to her mouth.

Chuck already understood and said nothing more.

Professor Alicia Harper looked around at everyone, and was affected by the calm (paralysis) expressions on Chuck and Beverly's faces. Her excitement and sadness eased slightly, and she said to Little Sheldon, who still had fear on his face: "

Don't worry, listen to your parents, don't talk nonsense, be a pure scientist, stay away from politics, those are not things that we scientists should deal with, there is a saying in the East, I think it is very good, the prosperity of the people is suffering, the destruction of the people is suffering."

"I agree with this."

Peggy nodded: "In the past, there was a red bear standing on top of it. Those in power still had to rally public opinion to fight, so they would treat the people a little better. What will happen when the red bear falls and there are no more opponents in sight?"

After saying this, she wrinkled her nose and looked at Monica: "It seems that I can't mess with the principal's dinner invitation."

"..."

Monica was speechless.

She really couldn't figure out why Peggy, at such a young age, had such a cunning and weird way of thinking about problems. First she made the mistake, and now it was connected to them.

The only gratifying thing is that this time is beneficial to her work.

"This is not my idea of ​​a high-quality human gathering."

Little Sheldon held it in for a long time and finally couldn't help but complain.

"Feel sorry."

Professor Alicia Harper looked at Little Sheldon apologetically, and then directly used the class questions as a guide to lead everyone to talk about the scientific topics that should be discussed.

Little Sheldon was still a child after all, so his attention was quickly diverted and he started talking loudly.

Chuck, Peggy, and Beverly expressed their opinions from time to time.

The atmosphere became harmonious.

Only Monica drinks more frequently.

When the watches on Little Sheldon's and Beverly's wrists rang at the same time, they raised their hands to look at their watches at the same time, and Beverly said, "It's time to go back."

"I'm glad to have such a high-quality dinner, but Beverly is right, you have to leave when the time comes."

Little Sheldon had forgotten the previous unpleasantness and stood up without feeling satisfied.

For them, everything including going to the toilet is included in the schedule. It is clear what they should do at what time and they must abide by it.

"Let's go too."

Peggy looked at Monica who looked happy.

"I'll send you off."

Chuck also stood up.

Professor Alicia Harper sent everyone out and watched them get into the car and leave. She turned around and glanced at the empty home. The late autumn night wind blew in. She stood with her arms folded and looked up at the boundless starry sky for a long time.

Chuck drove and took Peggy back to the dormitory first, and then took the slightly drunk Monica back to the apartment.

Apartment balcony.

Three men and two women were sitting here chatting. When Chuck's car arrived downstairs, they saw it for the first time and they all looked down.

When Chuck accompanied Monica into the apartment building, a group of them ran to the door of the apartment together, looking at the peephole, putting their ears against the door, and when they heard the movement, they whispered

Said: "Coming, coming!"

"Thank you for sending me back."

Walking to the door, Monica stopped and looked at Chuck, her eyes twinkling.

"You're welcome."

Chuck was very calm, nodded and turned to leave.

"Chuck!"

Monica stopped him, and the red wine she drank took effect. Her head felt hot, and she walked towards Chuck. She mustered up her courage, stepped forward and closed her eyes, and approached him.

"Wow."

My best friend Rachel, who saw this scene through the peephole, let out a soft cry.

"how is it going?"

Others who couldn't see asked in a low voice.

"I kissed you...ah oh."

Rachel relayed the message in a low voice through the peephole, and then her voice changed, which seemed not to go smoothly.

"Why?"

Everyone who was listening close to the door also heard Monica's confused and aggrieved voice.

Outside the apartment door.

Chuck did avoid it. Seeing Monica looking at him in confusion and embarrassment, Chuck said straightforwardly: "I don't drink."

Monica: "..."
