Chapter 74 Drawing the Sword 4 Gu Xin was bewildered
Su Hao's mentors have always been those silent books.
From the moment he first learned to read at the age of two, he has never been free from this almost ascetic reading.
Under the lamplight countless late nights, he was always alone, his mind battling with conflicting thoughts.
Ask your own questions and find your own answers.
When faced with a problem that cannot be solved for the time being, it is filed into the "unsolved" list, to be investigated in depth later when one has grown sharper fangs.
Through this almost self-torturous, unorthodox self-study method, Su Hao forged an extremely rigorous, machine-like, and ruthless thought process for himself:
When encountering a new concept, first firmly anchor yourself to the "definition," followed by an extremely long and ruthless process of self-verification, involving countless mental struggles to determine its truth or falsehood.
Therefore, when Liu Zhiyun wrote the underlying logic of "definition-theorem-proof-critique" on the blackboard, Su Hao's heart raced uncontrollably!
Because this is an instinct that he has practiced in his mind countless times since childhood, as naturally as breathing!
And now, someone has actually used language to accurately sketch out the shape of his thought process!
This is also why he can demonstrate absolute dominance over his peers in logical reasoning.
While others are learning to walk, he's already piloting a Gundam!
At this moment, the students below the stage were staring intently at the case report on the big screen, their brows furrowed in deep frowns, their expressions as solemn as if they were defusing a time bomb.
Perhaps it's because the nature of this text is so different from that of regular math problems...
After racking their brains, the group was still stuck in a quagmire, completely unable to figure out which conditions were valid and which were distractions that could lead to trouble.
"The power outage is also a crucial condition, right? After all, the surveillance system only stops working because of the power outage..."
"No, no, that female suspect used a cell phone! That's a crucial clue! In modern society, cell phone location data absolutely cannot be deleted!"
"The exact time the shop owner opened the door serves as the time anchor for their alibi. If that's deleted, how can the case be solved?"
Anxious whispers filled the classroom.
Lin Shuwan, who always considered herself a top student, also found the situation very difficult at this moment.
She frowned, biting the tip of her pen tightly, trying to break down the long sentences word by word, her paper covered with messy mind maps.
Within the densely packed case summary, various factual clues intertwine to form a suffocatingly complex web:
The exact time of the incident, the owner's door opening records, eyewitness testimonies from employees of nearby coffee shops, the CCTV cameras that were completely disabled due to the power outage, the complex mechanism of the safe, and the files of former employees who had worked at the store...
A complete mess.
Chaos! Utter chaos!
However, amidst this scene of widespread devastation, Su Hao did not hesitate for a moment.
His gaze swept quickly over every character in the passage, and then he decisively raised his hand once again.
"Teacher, most of the clues listed in this report are distractors that cannot lead to any conclusions."
Before anyone could react, Su Hao had already walked straight to the podium.
He grabbed the mouse and began a brutal, large-scale deletion of the projected text on the big screen.
Swish!Swish!Swish!
His swift and decisive movements, as swift and powerful as a master swordsman cutting through melons and vegetables, elicited a series of terrified gasps from the students below the stage.
"Holy crap! What is he doing! That's the coffee shop employee's eyewitness testimony!"
"He even deleted the power outage and surveillance system malfunction videos?! This guy's insane!!"
Those "key facts" that they had clung to as a lifeline were ruthlessly wiped out by Su Hao.
Finally, when Su Hao stopped, the screen was stripped clean of all the text, leaving only three extremely concise sentences:
At the time of the incident, the shop owner was out.
The store's safe is physically locked and can only be opened with a combination lock.
Only the shop owner and the former employee knew the password.
The entire room was completely silent. You could hear a pin drop!
"Perfect!!"
Liu Zhiyun slapped her thigh and stood up abruptly, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
"See? After stripping away the redundant information, isn't the core structure immediately clear?"
In reality, the real culprit was that former employee!
Remember, we use the same underlying logic when dealing with complex mathematical proofs.
Not all of the conditional parameters given by the problem need to be invoked.
Conversely, unnecessary false conditions are prone to causing confusion and must be ruthlessly eliminated in the first step!
The sole core metric is establishing a deductive pathway directly to the truth!
Liu Zhiyun clapped her hands suddenly: "Come on, let's give a round of applause to Su Hao!"
clap clap clap!clap clap clap!
As Lin Shuwan clapped her hands, she looked at the three sentences on the blackboard and felt as if her values were being brutally rubbed into the ground.
"Damn it, the truth was so simple! What was I even thinking about regarding cell phone base stations?!"
Just then, under the cover of the applause, Liu Zhiyun quietly walked to Su Hao's side.
She leaned slightly forward and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Su Hao, the teacher specifically told you to come and discuss things with me whenever you have time, why haven't you shown up?"
"Do you really want me to personally get involved and come here to arrest you?"
"Well!"
Su Hao paused for a moment, then lowered his head and scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
......
After that, the logic-based attack and defense exercises in this class continued and entered a truly intense phase.
The rules are extremely brutal: one side establishes a logical model, and the other side finds an entry point to break it.
In this game, Su Hao completely shed his disguise and transformed into an overwhelming tyrant in the entire classroom!
"Your premise contains a logical loop."
"The topological mapping here is missing a constraint, rendering the entire derivation process invalid."
"The preconditions are mutually exclusive."
All the students' painstaking efforts and frantic efforts to build the proof framework were instantly destroyed by him from the most cunning and inhumane angle!
Conversely, when faced with the logical barriers that Su Hao casually threw out, the whole class was like ants trying to shake a tree, crashing into it until they were bloodied and bruised, but they couldn't budge it an inch.
"Holy crap... what did someone as mentally disturbed and completely anti-human as you eat to grow up like this?"
Lin Shuwan looked utterly defeated, her worldview completely shattered. She clicked her tongue in disbelief and gave up the idea of fighting against the gods.
Once this logical foundation was firmly established, Liu Zhiyun began to guide the students step by step, embedding this way of thinking into the field of advanced mathematics.
Su Hao's brain instantly entered an overclocked state, and he could almost hear the roar of neurons frantically connecting!
What was written on the blackboard was nothing more than a mundane function proof problem.
But once the methodology that Liu Zhiyun had just taught him was used as a scalpel to cut into the problem, it immediately revealed a completely different topological structure in Su Hao's eyes, like a dazzling starry sky!
For Su Hao, his academic journey over the years has always been a lonely one, like a peerless master standing atop a snow-capped mountain, sword in hand, looking around in bewilderment.
Although he always felt that the process of deducing things alone and groping in the dark was itself full of physiological pleasure from a surge of dopamine.
But Liu Zhiyun was the first truly qualified and capable top-tier mentor he had ever met in his life.
For the first time in his life, Su Hao truly experienced the fear and emotion of being personally trained and having his cognitive ceiling forcibly broken!
This resonance deep within the soul is more powerful than any words!
On the podium, Liu Zhiyun quietly observed Su Hao's completely absorbed state of pure rationality, a sly smile slowly creeping onto her lips...
