The accounting for the orphanage, which would take an ordinary accountant two or three days to complete, could be done by Qin Huanyu in a few seconds after her abilities were awakened... She could basically know the answer to any question related to numbers as soon as she saw it, even if she didn't understand the question herself.
Unfortunately, her good fortune didn't last long. Qin Huanyu, whose abilities had just awakened, had no way of controlling them, and the four-year-old girl was full of curiosity.
She can easily find the most vulnerable parts of various things by observing them with her eyes, and then calculate the simplest and least effortless way to destroy them.
By the time the director realized the problem, 4-year-old Qin Huanyu had already demolished two rooms and a wall, and had beaten several other 7- or 8-year-old boys in the orphanage until they cried in pain.
After what happened, Qin Huanyu naturally could no longer stay in the orphanage; continuing to stay would be unsafe for everyone.
The dean also decisively chose to call the police and hand Qin Huanyu over to the state.
After learning about the situation, the White Light City Police Department promptly reported it again, which quickly gained the attention of the high-ranking officials of the Holy Zhou Kingdom.
People with extraordinary abilities have always been the most scarce talent in the Holy Zhou Kingdom. A little girl who awakened her abilities on her own at the age of 4 is no exaggeration to call her a little national treasure.
Ultimately, the research institute took on this task. Qin Hai, who was then the director of the institute and happened to be in charge of research on human superhuman strength, became Qin Huanyu's adoptive father.
Qin Huanyu grew up in the research institute.
The Holy Zhou Kingdom has never been stingy with its resources in nurturing Qin Huanyu. It not only provides her with top-notch one-on-one education, but also specially assembles an expert group to help her study, train, and master her own power using scientific methods.
Although the research projects at this institute are all related to supernatural powers, the researchers still firmly believe that they are scientists and materialists.
In their view, even if many properties of supernatural power are quite idealistic, as long as this idealistic phenomenon objectively exists, then this idealism itself is also a form of materialism.
The purpose of the research institute and the ideal of its researchers is to study the secrets of extraordinary powers, summarize the laws similar to mathematical formulas and physical laws, and then combine them with existing technologies to improve the technological level of human civilization as a whole.
Of course, this research is still in its early stages, much like how ancient humans had just learned to use fire.
In the decades since its establishment, the institute has only two notable achievements.
Firstly, the research institute has proven through purely scientific means that there exists an element in the world, similar to dark matter, that cannot be directly observed but can be indirectly verified. This element is the foundation of almost all extraordinary powers, even more important than electricity in modern technology.
The research institute named this element 'Spiritual Essence', and after publishing this finding, the institute officially changed its name to the [Saint Zhou Spiritual Essence Research Institute].
The second achievement was completed less than 10 years ago. Qin Huanyu also played a role in it as a humanoid computer. Qin Hai was promoted from director to institute director as a result, while the original institute director went to Shen Du after the promotion and became a bigwig in the Ministry of Industry.
This achievement is also currently the only civilian-use technology related to superhuman strength in the world.
Through a mysterious ritual that is low-cost, highly stable, and relatively simple, coupled with genetic engineering technology, cabbage can be made to have the texture, nutrition, and taste of pork, making it difficult even for professional gourmets to distinguish.
The advent of this technology immediately reduced the price of pork to one-tenth, significantly lowering the cost of living for ordinary people. It can be said that no one in the world... at least in Saint Zhou, can no longer afford meat.
Chapter 8 Inspections and Tests
After having a pleasant dinner with Qin Hai, Qin Huanyu wanted him to go back to his residence and rest properly, but she knew that was unlikely.
Because Qin Huanyu had to go back to the Lingsu Research Institute every weekend unless something unexpected happened, not only to go home and visit, but also to participate in various examinations and tests.
After all, in a sense, Qin Huanyu herself is a key project of the research institute. While enjoying the institute's abundant resources, she also has an obligation to assist the institute in its research.
Moreover, these checks and tests are all very simple.
The examination consists of two parts: a physical examination and a psychological examination.
The physical examination was the simplest; it involved lying in a machine similar to an MRI and having your whole body scanned for a few minutes to collect data. Qin Huanyu had experienced this kind of examination countless times since she was a child, and it was basically the same as closing her eyes and resting, and it was over very quickly.
The psychological assessment involves a professional psychological evaluation team talking with her for about half an hour, followed by having her take a set of multiple-choice psychological tests to determine her mental state.
After all, Qin Huanyu had a history of demolishing houses and beating children when she was young, and her abilities could indeed lead her to engage in various destructive behaviors, so her mental health management is very important.
This is also an important reason why the research institute raised Qin Huanyu like a princess, so that she could live happily and at least not accumulate resentment because of poverty.
The physical and psychological examinations took about an hour in total. After that, Qin Huanyu immediately began her weekly ability test.
The first test was conducted in a place similar to a darts range.
Qin Huanyu skillfully took a white cat milk candy from the plate, peeled it, and ate it. After 2.4 seconds, she fully entered the activated state and then picked up a dart and kept shooting it at the target.
With a series of whooshing sounds as the darts pierced the air, Qin Huanyu quickly finished throwing all the darts on the table.
The two researchers immediately went to the target location. One of them took out a very precise ruler to measure it, while the other recorded the results.
The darts thrown at the target did not all hit the center of the 10-ring; instead, they formed a straight line from the 1-ring to the 10-ring.
The researcher in charge of the measurement first placed the ruler below the row of darts, squinted at it carefully for a moment from one side, and then chuckled as if nothing was amiss:
"It's almost a perfect straight line, fantastic."
Then he used a ruler to measure the depth of each dart that hit the target, and after reporting the numbers to his partner who was recording them, he gave Qin Huanyu a thumbs up:
"That's amazing, Ayu. The error has been kept within 0.3 millimeters."
"Hu~~"
Qin Huanyu breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hand with a smile:
"Brother Zhou, you've worked hard."
After Qin Huanyu enters her activated state, she can not only observe and calculate accurately, but also control herself as precisely as a machine.
The power, speed, angle, and energy consumption of every movement can be precisely controlled. Qin Huanyu relied on this ability to subdue the robber before, and this is what she is testing now.
The dozen or so darts were not only stuck into the target in a straight line by Qin Huanyu, but the depth of each dart was also different from left to right, forming a diagonal line caused by an arithmetic sequence. The error has now been controlled within 0.3 millimeters.
Such results are something even martial arts masters who have practiced darts diligently since childhood cannot achieve; no matter how good their feel for it or how high their talent, it's impossible.
Qin Huanyu did it with ease, which is why her ability is extraordinary.
After the dart-throwing test, Qin Huanyu quickly went to the second test location.
This is a circular track about 120 meters long, with various obstacles and even traps set up inside, just like the levels in those parkour games.
The test Qin Huanyu had to do was to sprint on the track at top speed while using agile movements to avoid obstacles and to spot hidden traps in advance.
While both were in an activated state, Qin Huanyu's performance was less consistent this time.
She ran a total of 5 laps. The fastest lap took her less than 15 seconds, while the slowest lap took a full 22 seconds.
These obstacles and traps are not the same every lap. The time Qin Huanyu ran 22 seconds, she failed to avoid one of the traps and was doused with a bucket of cold water.
"It seems your cultivation is still not quite up to par, Ayu."
The researcher, who had clearly designed the trap, didn't hide his smugness and lecturing Qin Huanyu with a smile:
"Luckily, this is just training and testing. If you had fallen into the trap during a formal investigation, your life might have been in danger... How about we double the training?"
"Double it? Are you trying to work me to death?"
Qin Huanyu, who had just dried her head with a towel, rolled her eyes, tossed her long, wine-red hair, and gave the researcher the middle finger without any politeness.
"Uncle Wang, your trap is disgusting... You must have carefully studied my usual moves before designing it, right? It's so unfair! Just you wait! I'm going to steal all your treasured snacks tonight!"
"Oh no!"
The researcher immediately surrendered:
“Those are essential items for me to relax after a long day at work. Without them, I probably wouldn’t be able to sleep well all night… and we can’t order takeout here.”
"Haha..." xN
The bickering between the two made the other researchers chuckle, adding a touch of fun to the otherwise serious and dry research atmosphere.
After completing the parkour test, Qin Huanyu went on to do several other tests in a row, including a hand-to-hand combat exercise against 20 guards from the research institute.
These tests primarily assess Qin Huanyu's physical abilities and are quite physically demanding.
Even though Qin Huanyu could carefully manage her physical exertion after activating her ability, achieving maximum results with minimal effort, she was still panting and drenched in sweat after just one round of testing.
His police uniform and black stockings were soaked with sweat several times over, and his feet and most of his calves, which were locked in tall boots, were unbearably hot and probably smelled very strong.
For certain beings with a keen sense of smell, Qin Huanyu felt that she could now take off her boots and throw them at them as biological weapons.
Qin Huanyu, who is very vain, certainly didn't like being covered in sweat, but it wasn't time for her to go to her residence to shower and change yet; she still had one last test to do.
The previous tests all measured her physical abilities, but her extraordinary power was only a side effect of enhancing her physical abilities. Her real strength lay in her computing power.
Therefore, Qin Huanyu's last test was a computing power test.
Chapter 9 She really can mine.
Qin Huanyu conducted the computing power test at the research institute's network and data center.
Besides a supercomputer named "Sunway" and hundreds of more ordinary research servers, there is also a device that is Qin Huanyu's personal device.
From its appearance, this device looks a lot like the kind of game pod used in two-dimensional science fiction novels to play fully immersive games, which allows people's mental consciousness to enter the data world.
In fact, the function of this device is roughly the same.
This is also one of the results of the Lingsu Research Institute combining extraordinary power and science and technology, which allows people lying in the device to connect directly to a computer using their brains, just like connecting via Bluetooth.
Unfortunately, this technology is far from being widely used in civilian applications like pork and cabbage. Even testing it for military use and further research and development is very difficult. At present, it can only be used as exclusive equipment for Qin Huanyu.
In fact, the prototype of this device was created before Qin Hai adopted Qin Huanyu, after all, direct human-machine connection has always been a dream and romance for some people.
Unfortunately, reality is cruel... Perhaps the human brain's computing power is insufficient to handle the massive amounts of data in a computer, or perhaps there's a problem with the translation between the human brain and the computer's system language.
In short, the volunteers who participated in testing this device either failed to connect at all or were overwhelmed by the massive amount of data after connecting, leaving them only able to babble.
Even Qin Huanyu was only allowed to try it after undergoing multiple tests and repeated research to confirm that her brain's computing power and endurance far exceeded those of normal people and that there was absolutely no danger.
The result was a great success.
After lying inside the device and directly connecting with the human, Qin Huanyu can be used as a humanoid computer, and a high-performance computer with computing power almost comparable to a supercomputer.
It is even more cost-effective than supercomputers, because supercomputers require a lot of electricity and are very expensive to maintain and repair.
Qin Huanyu, on the other hand, only needs a plate of Little White Cat Milk Candy to work continuously for more than 10 hours, just like a supercomputer running at full power.
Therefore, Qin Huanyu's computing power test every weekend night was also a form of part-time work, and her main way of earning pocket money.
Supercomputers are top-tier equipment that only large research institutions can afford; smaller research institutions simply cannot afford to buy or maintain them.
What should small research institutions do when they need to use supercomputers for data calculations?
The answer is to rent it. Large research institutions don't use supercomputers all the time, so renting out some spare time and computing resources to smaller research institutions to earn extra money is a common practice among research institutions.
Lingsu Research Institute has naturally received many requests to lend supercomputing power. After carefully testing it several times, they handed over some of these requests to Qin Huanyu, asking her to lend computing power on behalf of [Shenwei] in the human-computer direct connection transition state.
The rent was split between Qin Huanyu and the research institute.
In this way, the research institute had more income to use for research funding, and Qin Huanyu also earned enough pocket money to buy a top-of-the-line motorcycle to ride at will, a win-win situation.
Of course, lending out supercomputing power isn't always possible, and when there's no such request, Qin Huanyu wouldn't let herself waste computing power during testing.
She uses her brain to perform blockchain calculations to obtain various encrypted virtual currencies, commonly known as mining, which is also an important source of her pocket money.
For example, today Qin Huanyu did not receive any requests to lend computing power from those small research institutions. He could only lie in the human-machine direct connection device and mine for more than two hours, mining about 10 yuan worth of encrypted virtual currency.
Only after this last routine test was completed did Qin Huanyu drag her somewhat tired body back to her room.
Having grown up in the research institute, Qin Huanyu naturally has her own place to live here, a small duplex apartment.
The upper floor of the apartment contains Qin Huanyu's bedroom and bathroom, while the lower floor consists entirely of bathrooms.
The bathroom has a large bathtub that can comfortably accommodate three to five people at the same time, and it also has several water massage devices.
From childhood to adulthood, Qin Huanyu has always enjoyed the all-around, thorough washing and massage of the water in the bath after each training session.
Today was no different. Soaking in the comforting hot water, after activating the water massage function, a gentle yet pleasant stream of water sprayed onto her body from all directions, making her stretch and squint her eyes comfortably in the water, and finally even unable to resist sticking out her tongue slightly.
"Hmm~"
With her legs together and toes tucked between them, Qin Huanyu couldn't help but rub her fair skin with her hands. Her face, which was panting with her tongue sticking out, grew increasingly red.
"My body seems to be getting more and more sensitive. Even taking a shower makes me feel like this... Could it be that I should really start dating? But I'm not sexually attracted to anyone... whether it's a man or a woman, it's all the same..."
"..."
"Hmm... plop plop plop plop~~"
Lost in thought, Qin Huanyu rolled over in the water, letting the water just cover her mouth as she blew a few bubbles, before muttering to herself with a touch of narcissism:
"After all, I'm a sucker for good looks... It's really hard for me to feel anything for people who aren't even 8% as good-looking as me."
After soaking comfortably in the bathtub for a while and rinsing her hair clean, Qin Huanyu habitually walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in the bathroom.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman with fair skin and a hot figure in the mirror, Qin Huanyu couldn't help but clench her toes, a dazed look appearing in her eyes, and a surge of impulse rising in her heart.
From childhood to adulthood, Qin Huanyu had never had feelings for any man or woman, but it wasn't that she had never had any feelings at all... For example, she always couldn't control herself when she looked in the mirror.
"...Phew, that third-rate transmigrator with a head full of yellow garbage, even though I shattered his soul almost 20 years ago, he's still affecting me...Damn it!"
Muttering under her breath, she shifted the blame to a third-rate transmigrator whose soul had already been shattered. Qin Huanyu's eyes grew increasingly unfocused as she pressed her freshly washed, fragrant body closer to the mirror.
'I didn't want this to happen, but... I'm just too beautiful!'
