MTL - My Senpai Knows Magic-Chapter 34 fearful douglas
When Chen Luo followed Feige and walked in the direction of Douglas, Isabella said nothing, obviously angry with him.
Alice had a thoughtful expression on her face. After a while, she looked at Chen Luo and asked, "Brother Blair, what is the number?"
Chen Luo shook his head: "I don't know."
Alice looked at him and didn't ask again. She was thinking about this question just now, but when they usually said that the square of the number was 2, they always used a simple symbol instead. No one ever thought about it. Find this number.
After all, it's a tedious thing to do.
The teacher told them that they only need to know that the number can be represented by the ratio of two integers. As for which two integers are, this is something that scholars need to consider.
Although she wasn't sure if Chen Luo really didn't know, but obviously, the question he asked Feiqi didn't seem to be so easy to answer.
…
Douglas sat alone in the corner, his fists clenched, his face extremely gloomy.
The Edwin Award was robbed, the Medal of Honor was robbed, and tonight's academic salon, which should have been his glory, did not expect to become his shame.
Douglas stood up, he was going to leave here, he couldn't wait for the salon to end, that woman named Britney, that Blair who robbed him of the Medal of Honor, sooner or later he will find his glory from them!
"Brother, so you're here!" Just as Douglas was about to leave early, Feige walked over with a look of surprise.
"What's the matter?" Because of the extreme bad mood, Feiqi didn't have a good face for this younger brother.
"I made a bet with that idiot Blair..." Feige told Douglas what had just happened excitedly.
Douglas had a look of surprise on his face, and said in surprise, "He bet on the Medal of Honor with you?"
Feige sneered and said, "This idiot is just trying to attract Isabella's attention, brother, help me read this question, this time I will make his honorary scholar a disgraced scholar!"
Douglas is no longer in a hurry to leave here. Although Blair's problem may be difficult, there are many of his friends at the salon tonight. Even if they can't solve the problem, they will not lose. what.
But if he wins, he may be able to recover a little of the humiliation he suffered from Blair in advance.
Douglas looked at Fitch and asked, "What's the problem?"
Fitch hurriedly said: "What is the diagonal length of a square with side length 1?"
Hearing this, Douglas was stunned for a moment. He thought that Blair would ask some difficult questions to embarrass Fitch, and he was even ready to ask friends for help. Can't be a problem.
He frowned at Fitch and said, "You don't know the answer to this question?"
As a member of the Howard family, if Feige dared to say that he did not know Howard's theorem, he would be killed by his father. Feige quickly explained: "Blair asked me to express the number whose square is 2 as a ratio of integers. "
Douglas glanced at Fitch, sat down again, picked up the pen and paper, and said, "You wait."
He has not studied this issue, but the numbers in the world, except for integers, are decimals that can be represented by the ratio of integers. He spends some time and can always find this number.
And although he lost the Edwin Award and the Medal of Honor, he had time.
While this doesn't take away Blair's status as an honorary scholar, it can give him the disgrace of being a scholar...
The three of Chen Luo walked to Feiqi's side, Feiqi gave him a disdainful look, and said, "Get your medal ready."
Chen Luo put the Medal of Honor on the table and said, "It's here, come and get it if you can."
He didn't seem to take the gambling game to heart at all, opened a bottle of unopened red wine, and sat on a chair to taste it slowly.
Chen Luo's calmness seems to have infected Isabella, reminding her of the two stones that subverted her cognition. Chen Luo used those two stones to overturn the conclusion of the sages, and deceived ten people from her. gold coins.
She looked at Chen Luo suspiciously and asked, "Blair, do you know something?"
Chen Luo didn't answer directly, poured her a glass of red wine and said, "Look at it."
Isabella frowned her beautiful eyebrows, glared at him, and said, "If you lose the medal, see how I deal with you!"
Invisibly, she has begun to act like a senior sister with Chen Luo.
Many people call her senior sister at St Donas College, but only Blair is her own junior. As a senior, Isabella feels that she has the right to teach him in place of Teacher Britney.
Seeing that Chen Luo didn't mean to pour her wine, Alice took out a clean goblet for herself, poured herself a shallow half glass, and sat next to Isabella. Beside Chen Luo.
From time to time, she looked at Chen Luo with doubts and confusion. She was starting to lose sight of this junior who was younger than her...
On the other hand, Fitch thought that Douglas could give him an answer quickly, but he waited for a while, and Douglas was still burying his head in the calculations.
Feiqi glanced at the leisurely Chen Luo, and couldn't help but lowered his head and asked Glass, "Isn't it okay?"
Douglas frowned and said irritably, "Don't talk."
He thought that things would go smoothly, and expressed a number as a ratio of integers. This is something only a beginner in mathematics would do. For a scholar like him, who is already a little famous, this can be regarded as some kind of insult.
However, Douglas used several methods, but did not get the answer he wanted, which made him a little irritable.
Feige was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to speak, but he didn't panic at all.
Douglas is one of the best scholars of the Howard family, but it is not a problem to let him express the length of a line segment.
He even felt that if he was given a little time, he would be able to come up with the answer himself.
At the same time, Douglas, who was working hard, finally couldn't sit still.
He was a little horrified to find that for a square with a side length of 1, the length of its diagonal could not be represented by an accurate number...
The number school and the Howard family maintain that everything is measurable, and that any entity existing in nature can be accurately represented by numbers.
In this world, how can there be line segments that cannot be represented by numbers? Does this mean that the proposition of the number school is wrong, the sages of the Howard family are wrong, and the entire mathematics community is wrong?
This idea is simply ridiculous. Douglas promptly discarded this sinful idea. He raised his head, looked not far away, and said, "Debbie, Baker, Benson, come here..."
One person's strength is limited, so he decided to gather the strength of four people to find out this **** number.
The three walked over, and the young man named Benson glanced at him and asked, "Douglas, what's the matter?"
Douglas handed the three of them a piece of paper, UU read www. uukanshu.com said: "Look at this problem."
After Benson glanced at the paper, he looked at Douglas again, and said in surprise, "No way, you even forgot Howard's theorem, it's..."
Douglas suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "You see the problem first!"
The three of them glanced at each other again, and then sat down beside Douglas. Benson shook his head and said, "I'm afraid even your brother can do a problem of this level, but you actually ask the three of us to help, Douglas, I think you need a good rest. rest…"
Although he said so, he still picked up the pen and lowered his head to count.
Debbie and Baker didn't say anything, they sat aside and calculated silently.
Half a time of grace has passed.
A time of grace has passed.
…
Isabella had already finished drinking the red wine in the glass, and even the whole bottle of wine had been drank by the three of them. She glanced impatiently in the direction of Douglas and the others, and asked, "Why haven't they? Finished?"
Beside Douglas, Fitch waited anxiously, even his legs were numb, but he did not dare to disturb Douglas and others. Looking around, he saw a familiar figure standing beside several scholars, then looked down at Douglas, Gritting his teeth, he walked over quickly and said, "Uncle Duke, I have a question for you..."
Although Duke is not a member of the Howard family, he has a strong relationship with the Howard family. He is an honorary scholar of the Mathematical Association. Douglas and the others have not had any results for so long. Fitch decided to seek help from Duke first.
However, at this time, Fitch did not realize that his brother Douglas was sitting there, his face was extremely frightened, he could no longer hold the quill in his hand, and his head was dripping with sweat...
