Chapter 20 The Mathematical Genius

Ethan couldn’t believe it. He took the notebook and flipped it open. It was filled with six calculations. As he read through it, he glanced at Isabelle. When he saw the clear answer at the end, he was so shocked that his pupils dilated.
Ethan was speechless for a moment, just staring at Isabelle. His cells were screaming in excitement.
The problem was solved.
Countless teams had tried and failed, spending half a year racking their brains and pondering over this problem. Even the mathematical genius, James, couldn’t solve it. But his sister had done it in less than half an hour.
At this moment, the solution and the answer were in his hands. Ethan’s hand, holding the draft, trembled with excitement.
Isabelle pinched Ethan’s handsome and clean face, her eyes filled with amusement. “Don’t always react like this, it’s really hard to handle.”
Ethan’s brain buzzed, and his neck turned red.
“It’s a bit difficult for you to understand the problem now. I’ll explain it to you when you’re in college,” Isabelle said.
Ethan looked at Isabelle, who seemed relaxed and didn’t appear to have put much effort into solvi the problem. He opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn’t utter a word.
In the end, he took the draft and quietly returned to his room.
Sitting at his desk, Ethan flipped through the six pages back and forth. After a while, he seemed to think of something. He took out his phone and took clear pictures of each page, then opened the mathematics forum of Taragon University.
The mathematics forum of Taragon University was active every day with mathematicians from all over the world.
At this moment, a junior student from the faculty of mathematics of Taragon University just logged out of the account of the genius mathematician James and started browsing the posts out of boredom.
Soon.
A new post caught his attention.
The post had no title and had only six pictures.
The pictures were of six pages of draft paper filled with mathematical symbols.
When he clicked to take a look, he realised that it was the math problem that countless pros had not been able to solve.
At first, he didn’t react much. After all, this
problem was being solved back and forth every day, and

there were a lot of related posts on the forum. He casually clicked to take a look.
The more he looked, the more serious his expression became.
When he clicked on the last picture, he didn’t look at the solution process, but at the final answer.
“Wow, it seems quite right.”
Although every day people posted their pitiful little solution process and had intense discussions with their friends, and some even earnestly wrote more than ten pages, but this was the only one that posted the complete solution process and answer.
Without thinking, he eagerly tagged James, whom he had long admired, to come and see, and then shared it to various WhatsApp group discussion groups.
It quickly attracted everyone’s attention.
More and more students from Taragon University gathered under the post.
In just around ten minutes, the post was at the top of the hot list, and more and more people came to see it.
Has this seemingly unsolvable problem finally been solved?”
I’ve seen s
so many pros show their calculation process, but this is the first time I’ve seen a complete process and calculation result. There is hope, there is hope.”
‘I don’t understand math, but it looks awesome”
‘Regardless of whether it’s right or wrong, being able to write so much is already a genius, are you? Please, tell us so I can worship you
‘I have nothing to say but wow.”
‘I am so, so impressed.
‘I can’t even understand anything even if I get to copy the whole thing.
“This solution process is a bit like the one that James showed before, so it seems that it’s the correct
answer”
‘Is this pro from our school? Clicking into the homepage shows that the personal information is 16 years old, is it real? Please tell me it’s not’
Quickly bring our lovely principal and James over, I can’t wait to know the answer’
‘Another day of me being a nobody in the world. I am completely giving up”
‘Can the OP come out and say something?”
‘It seems that Taragon University is either going to add an excellent student or a genius teacher.
