Chapter 17 Two young geniuses meeting for the first time

The University of Texas at Austin is not close to the high school where Locke attended, so you need to drive there. This time Locke drove a second-hand car he bought himself.

Cars are the main means of transportation in the United States. As long as their families have the conditions, many high school students will get a car as a gift from their parents when they are sixteen years old. Most of them are second-hand and economical.

After Locke won his first lottery prize, he used a fraction of it to buy a second-hand car, which replaced his original bicycle and became his daily transportation.

"Okay, this is it." Locke confirmed the door number of the classroom and pulled Peggy into the classroom.

"Let's sit in the front row so we don't have to worry about being blocked from view." Locke glanced at the classroom where many people were already sitting.

"Okay." Peggy also nodded, carried her schoolbag to the first row, and chose a seat.

Locke sat next to him and took out the notes.

At this time, a little boy walked in and came to the seat chosen by Peggy. He hesitated and said hello: "Hello."

Peggy, who was taking out a book from her pink schoolbag, saw Sheldon and said with an interested look: "Hello."

"Who are you?"

"I'm Peggy, and I like your bow tie." Peggy said with a smile that was very emotional.

"Thank you." Little Sheldon said, "You look very young. Did an adult in the class bring you?"

Peggy smiled and said: "No, it was Dr. John Sturgess who listened to my lecture on quantum chromodynamics at high temperatures, and then invited me to audit his class."

"That's it..."

"Yes, he is very nice." Peggy's smile became sweeter. She felt good that she could meet children of similar age to herself this time.

But unlike Peggy, who felt that Dr. Sturges's attention might be stolen away, little Sheldon looked a little unhappy:

"Interesting, let me make it clear first, Dr. Sturges is my mentor and my grandmother's boyfriend. He also came to my house to eat spaghetti and hot dog dices."

Dr. John Sturgess and Sheldon have many similarities. It can be said that they have lived in scientific research all their lives, immersed in their own world, and know nothing about the world.

If Sheldon hadn't met Leonard, a roommate who was trained by his mother since childhood, Sheldon would probably be alone like him in the future, with no friends.

Little Sheldon's grandmother was very popular among the elderly. Once when she was sending little Sheldon to attend a class, she met Dr. John Sturgess, and the two unexpectedly had a spark.

Regarding this matter, the most excited person was not the two parties involved, but Sheldon, who tried every means to assist, as if he wanted to marry his grandmother to John immediately.

Seeing a little girl suddenly appear out of nowhere to compete with him for John's attention, little Sheldon couldn't help but show off his close relationship with Dr. Sturgess.

"So?" Peggy's high emotional intelligence immediately recognized Sheldon's hostility, and the sense of intimacy that had just arisen suddenly disappeared.

Little Sheldon said with a bit of anger: "You know this is a very advanced course, right? We will talk about..."

Peggy was even more unhappy now. She was still smiling, but she interrupted Little Sheldon directly: "Do you know if he can teach eight-color gluon operations using matrix multiplication?"

Little Sheldon opened his mouth, and his momentum suddenly froze: "I don't know."

"Then do you know how to do Leibniz's integral rule?"

Peggy takes advantage of the victory and pursues it.

At this time, little Sheldon could no longer control his expression, and the corners of his mouth began to twitch, and he reluctantly replied: "I don't know."

"Then what do you know?" Peggy finally sneered.

At this time, little Sheldon was about to cry. With no other choice, he finally couldn't help but said angrily: "I know you took my special seat."

"Haha..." Seeing this classic scene, Locke couldn't help laughing, rubbed Peggy's head and said with a smile: "Well done, Peggy."

Shaking off Locke's hand, Peggy gave him a roll of her eyes. She hated Locke's attitude of always treating her like a little girl.

Little Sheldon sat down angrily, not wanting to pay attention to the annoying girl next to him.

But Peggy didn't forget to take advantage of the victory and ask, "How old are you?"

Little Sheldon felt that he had finally regained his confidence and said proudly: "Ten years old."

"I'm ten years old, too." Peggy smiled even more happily and continued to ask, "When is your birthday?"

Little Sheldon subconsciously answered: "February 26."

"I am March 17th." Peggy looked back at the back row of the lecture theater and said with a happy smile: "I am the youngest student in the class. It's really interesting."

"Indeed, you are our most powerful little genius." Locke watched Sheldon's face become embarrassed again after finally recovering, and couldn't help laughing again.

When watching the show, his favorite part was watching Sheldon get frustrated.

"Who are you?" Little Sheldon finally noticed Locke at this time.

"I'm Peggy's classmate, Rock Lee, who sent Peggy here."

"So you're a driver?"

"Hahaha..." Peggy couldn't help laughing.

"Sure enough, this guy Sheldon has been annoying since he was a child." Locke couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Ding, trigger the mission and let Sheldon experience the beatings from society. His IQ that has surpassed others since he was a child has made Sheldon too proud. Please let him understand that he is still far behind in the path of science. The basic reward is 200 points. Potential points, additional rewards will be added based on the effect.”

"Accept the mission." Locke did not hesitate. He even felt that he would do his best to complete the mission without any system reward.

Dr. Sturges's class lasted for more than an hour. When the class ended, Locke was packing his things while thinking about how to let Sheldon experience the dangers of society.

According to the plot, after knowing that Peggy, a genius as big as little Sheldon, exists, little Sheldon’s mother Mary will want to invite Peggy’s parents to visit to see if the two of them can make friends together.

At that time, Peggy and Sheldon would play chess together, and after losing to Peggy one after another, little Sheldon would be unable to bear it and throw the chessboard away.

I can replace Peggy. Of course, this is just the most conventional method. There may be other ways...

After packing his schoolbag, Locke stood up and watched Sheldon pack his luggage step by step. His eyes unexpectedly fell on Sheldon's notes, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Sheldon!" Locke said.

"What's the matter, driver!"

Locke did not answer directly, but took out a pen from Peggy, then took Sheldon's notes and wrote a few strokes on them.

"Hey, who told you to touch my notes!" Sheldon hurriedly snatched his notes back from Locke's hand, looked down, and couldn't help shouting: "You changed my calculations!"

"Because that's wrong."

"No way, I won't make mistakes, and I can't make mistakes."

"Are you sure?" Locke looked at Sheldon with a smile, his eyes full of care.

Curious Peggy leaned over and took a look, with a smile on her lips.

"I'm sure." Sheldon did not check the calculation immediately, but replied very confidently: "When will the driver be qualified to judge whether the scientist is right or wrong?"

Locke smiled and said nothing. After the two looked at each other for a few seconds, his eyes made Sheldon more and more panicked. Finally, little Sheldon couldn't help but look down at his notes and began to do calculations in his mind.

For a genius like him, calculations that ordinary people would take a lot of time to complete with the help of a calculator only took him a short time to complete, just like Locke saw the problems in Sheldon's calculations at a glance.

Just a few seconds later, Sheldon's face began to twitch unnaturally.

"I don't know if the scientist needs the driver's prompts now." Locke looked at Little Sheldon's expression.

The words he just said were slapped in the face in the blink of an eye. Little Sheldon was already ashamed. He hugged the suitcase as a school bag and ran directly out of the classroom.

"It seems he has noticed it." Peggy said with a smile. She also noticed Sheldon's problem just now. It was just a small oversight that a person occasionally makes, but seeing Sheldon's reaction made her unconscious. happy.

After confirming that the mission was completed, Locke shrugged his shoulders and took Peggy's hand: "Okay, the farce is over, it's time for us to go back."

"That Sheldon is really interesting." On the way back, Peggy said with a smile, sitting in the back seat.

"Indeed." Thinking back to the last scene when Sheldon couldn't stand it anymore and ran to the toilet quickly, Locke felt that the unhappiness in his heart just now dissipated.

No wonder Leonard and others in The Big Bang Theory unconsciously show a sincere smile on their faces every time they have the opportunity to beat Sheldon to the point of being unable to fight back.

Maybe a few contacts will help Sheldon understand that intelligence is not enough and nothing is absolutely perfect. There will always be smarter people in this world.

Locke is here to help Sheldon gain social experience, and he definitely does not intend to make him cry as an entertainment project.
