Chapter 264

Fang Ziye's true intention was to soothe Lan Tianluo's unresolved emotions, but Lan Tianluo heard a different flavor in it.

"Senior Brother, why do I feel like you're being sarcastic with me?"

"Is it that you really have that meaning? Or am I sensing it wrong?" Lan Tianluo's expression was conflicted for a good while.

Speaking of being unfocused, not single-minded, among the people Lan Tianluo currently knows, he's the only one who plays around the most wildly, okay.

As for other classmates, if we talk about crossing majors and disciplines, at most it's just from mathematics to computer science, or some cross into physics, even some into law.

But someone like him, with one foot stepping into the medical department, there are almost none.

No other reason, because the medical department, in principle, does not admit students without a medical background, and this point in Eastern Han is universal.

Fang Ziye heard this and immediately said: "Don't overthink it, I have no intention of being sarcastic with you."

"I feel that you, Tian Luo, are simply a natural-born orthopedic doctor seedling, and a future authority in trauma surgery, you are the most suited to study trauma!"

Facing someone like Lan Tianluo, if he weren't his fellow trainee, he would definitely advise him to realize his mistake early and return to his main profession.

But precisely because Lan Tianluo is his fellow trainee, Fang Ziye knows just how useful these two characters "Tian Luo" really are.

If it weren't for Lan Tianluo, then regarding the development of fracture closed reduction, and even further, the adoption and analysis of basic data for fracture classification, the time required for these processes would be at least ten times what it is now.

And the time consumption of ten times or more is still a conservative estimate, a self-satisfied estimate.

How could Fang Ziye possibly be sarcastic about Lan Tianluo not doing his proper job?

Within the group, they could find another Yuan Weihong, another Fang Ziye, another Jie Han, but it would be absolutely hard to find another Lan Tianluo.

This is the consensus currently reached by the three: Yuan Weihong, Fang Ziye, and Jie Han.

"Senior Brother, I feel like what you just said is still mocking me." Lan Tianluo touched his nose, rubbed the back of his head a bit embarrassedly, and then spoke.

"But Senior Brother, even if you're deceiving me, I still feel very happy. Because you don't know, engaging with life sciences truly makes me happy from the bottom of my heart, while engaging with the logical science of data only gives me an occasional sense of achievement."

"It can be equated to, one is interest, the other is work."

Lan Tianluo explained while laughing.

The current Lan Tianluo, his complexion is darker than when he first arrived at Zhongnan Hospital, and he has more masculine vigor.

And Lan Tianluo's current physique, under the group's leg-lifting technique and the 'reinforced concrete' training in the training room, has already become quite muscular in scale.

His temperament has also matured considerably compared to before.

And the baring of his heart beneath this mature temperament makes people feel it's very genuine.

Fang Ziye hasn't discussed this issue with Lan Tianluo for a long time, but still remembers one thing: "So actually it was your sister who blocked your path of liking to study medicine?"

Fang Ziye seems to remember that Lan... he himself liked studying medicine.

But Lan Tianluo's mother felt that Lan liking to study medicine was hot-headed, that he felt guilty toward Luo Tingzhu, so he wanted to accompany her as a younger brother.

"Actually, the most accurate statement should be that I myself wasn't firm enough, so I mistakenly entered another industry and occupied certain resources."

"Secondly, it's my mother presumptuously thinking that I wanted to study medicine to compensate others, so she wouldn't let me study medicine."

"What compensation? If I really wanted compensatory accompaniment, I would have come to Han City long ago. But when I touched the university threshold, I was basically just a kid, how could I have thought of so much now?"

"At that time I was only fourteen, still two months short." Lan Tianluo spoke this sentence very sincerely.

But Fang Ziye keenly captured a piece of information.

Damn, a fourteen-year-old young talent class, by around twenty years old, according to the normal academic system, they'd probably all be Master's Students.

Lan Tianluo shouldn't count as an especially famous genius who suddenly solved a century-old conjecture, otherwise Lan Tianluo definitely wouldn't have escaped the Mathematics Department, but he's definitely not an ordinary genius either, otherwise people wouldn't specifically pay attention to Lan Tianluo's post-graduation whereabouts.

"Tian Luo, you don't really already have a Doctorate, do you?" Fang Ziye asked seriously.

Every time Lan Tianluo faces this kind of question, he always seems to avoid it.

"Senior Brother, if I tell you, you can't go tell on me to others, okay?" Lan Tianluo suddenly said this.

Speaking like this, Lan Tianluo finished packing the table, and glanced at the doorway again.

The door was indeed tightly closed.

"Okay, I promise I won't tell. Tian Luo, you also know, I'm the tightest-lipped person."

"The secret you told me last time, currently no one else knows it, right?" Fang Ziye signaled Lan Tianluo to hurry up and tell, satisfying his curiosity.

Lan Tianluo's expression was originally nothing much, but after hearing Fang Ziye's words, he instead became conflicted: "Senior Brother, what was the secret you told me last time? Do you still remember?"

"Uh! ~" Fang Ziye instantly became awkward.

His brain spun rapidly, then he said: "We two have no little secrets, I remembered wrong."

Only then did Lan Tianluo relax, but became curious: "Whose is it? Senior Brother?"

"I said it's a little secret, so it's definitely not tellable. I'm a person with a tight mouth, you absolutely can't hear gossip about others from me, unless it's already public knowledge." Fang Ziye swore solemnly.

This is actually a kind of rhetoric; the simple Lan Tianluo was truly tricked by Fang Ziye until he didn't know which way was up.

……

Soon, the two hurried to the place to eat.

Lan Tianluo actively helped scald the bowls and chopsticks while saying: "Senior Brother, degree and diploma aren't actually important, what's more important is what kind of tasks you can take on, what nature of tasks."

"Some tasks, if the company dispatches them to you, there's money."

"Some tasks, if the research project group finds you, you can get fame, get papers."

"And some more hidden tasks, for example that certain computing bureau we contacted before, comes from a corner of secrets that cannot be made public."

"I personally guess, this might be the trajectory of Number Three that launched three years ago, or something."

Listening to Lan... getting more and more outrageous, Fang Ziye actively coughed once: "Alright, enough, stop talking, Tian Luo."

I'll be damned, is this something that can be said?

Could I enjoy eating this kind of melon? After eating this kind of melon, where do you throw the rind?

Fang Ziye is just a medical student; in Fang Ziye's eyes, anything involving national defense, military bases, and aerospace are all absolute secrets. None can be spoken of externally, and Fang Ziye himself isn't curious either.

So Fang Ziye also doesn't know whether this kind of thing, a part of its tasks, can be outsourced to others, and doesn't know if Lan Tianluo is taking advantage of Fang Ziye's ignorance to bluff.

Lan Tianluo might also have realized his slip of the tongue, so he hurriedly suppressed the topic, saying: "Senior Brother, rest assured."

"Data that can reach our hands has definitely all been encrypted and transcoded."

"And I'm just a super fringe figure, so I should be able to casually mention it to people I'm close with."

"And these things are all in the past tense."

"Past tense or not, mention it less. You're too scary, saying education is useless at every turn. You make me feel so ashamed, Tian Luo." Fang Ziye actively changed the subject.

"You don't know, your Senior Brother, back then to be able to read for a PhD, almost wanted to develop a delusional disorder or schizophrenia."

"In the end, when it came to you, education isn't important anymore. If you do it like this, my Dao Heart will collapse." Fang Ziye was also telling the absolute truth here.

But now, a year later, Fang Ziye was standing from a relatively objective angle, peace of mind, looking back at his past self, only then speaking these big words about the past.

"Senior Brother, actually the current circle has formed a vicious cycle."

"From the position of having walked out, feeling that walking a circle in this circle is just that. People inside the circle feel doing these things is very suffering. But outside the circle, when pushing toward the inside, everyone firmly believes in their heart that as long as they enter the circle, they can especially endure suffering."

"Graduate study, PhD entrance exams, are all like this."

"It seems only very few people are truly because of interest, hobbies, liking specialized research, and go to study further." Lan Tianluo's tone carried some sighing regret.

But despite the sighing regret, Lan Tianluo planned to be his true self: "Senior Brother, but I feel I still have to, for myself, read some books, make some choices."

"It just so happens I'm still good at reading. In another major, I've already read to the point where reading cannot go further. Under such premises, even my mother can't say too much."

"Could it really be that I, just twenty-one years old a little bit, have to go out and work?"

"Other people at twenty-two or twenty-three are still in undergrad, carefree."

Fang Ziye hearing this, suddenly popped out another question: "Not right, Tian Luo, you're this good at reading, your scholarship and student aid fund should be a lot, right?"

"You seem to have more money than me, this Senior Brother?"

Fang Ziye suddenly realized, every time it's this Senior Brother treating?

But, associating with Lan Tianluo's sister Luo Tingzhu having so much scholarship, and Lan Tianluo, being another genius easier to mix in the industry.

Lan Tianluo flipped through his mobile phone, specially looked at his savings, embarrassedly touched his chin, said: "Senior Brother, actually not much, all just under two million."

Fang Ziye hearing this, in this instant, Dao Heart thoroughly collapsed.

Biting the bullet, using chopsticks knocking on the bowl: "Tian Luo, today you must treat, you must treat, you have to compensate this Senior Brother's damaged spirit."

But didn't expect, Lan Tianluo instead more heart-wrenchingly directly said: "Senior Brother, rest assured, I won't lend you money to buy air tickets."

Lan Tianluo at this moment, laughed a bit cheaply.

It's just because they're acquaintances, that they dare say such heart-wrenching words.

"Senior Brother, why did you choose to study medicine?" After fooling around a while, skipping past the topic of who treats, Lan Tianluo asked Fang Ziye.
