Chapter 128: Professor Edward
Silas made his way through the airport's terminal, as he walked towards the designated parking area where an Uber was already waiting for him.
When he got to the parking area, he looked around for a moment before he finally saw what he was looking for.
Immediately, he walked towards a black Mercedes-Benz E class that had a middle-aged man standing in front of it.
After his private jet took off, Luna started preparing Silas' transportation details, as she ordered an Uber for him. After she was done, she sent the information on the car and its driver to Silas.
The middle-aged man noticed a someone walking towards his general direction and he took a good look at the person, and he smiled.
The youth walking towards him, is the one that he has been waiting for. It's been more than three hours since he arrived at the airport in response to the order that someone placed and he has been waiting since then.
With a smile, the man got into the car and started waiting for the youth.
He didn't have to wait long as in the following moments, the door to the backseat opened and a young man got in.
The driver saw this and started the car, as he drove off to the destination the app is displaying on his phone's screen.
Luna had already taken care of everything and the only thing Silas has to do is to sit comfortably and enjoy the ride.
The ride to Princeton University will take approximately close to 50 minutes and Silas plan to use that 50 minutes doing nothing.
He had already used the excess free time he had during the flight to prepare himself for his meeting with Professor Edward. He decided to do nothing but relax throughout the ride.
Close to 50 minutes later, the car finally stopped in front of a wrought-iron structure, the official entrance of Princeton University.
Silas got out of the car and stood in front of the structure, as he admired it for a few moments.
The structure in front of him is called the FitzRandolph Gate.
Looking at the gate, Silas felt it's something that one would see in that popular vampire series.
Silas smiled at his thought as he walked through the open gate and he made his way to Professor Edward's location.
Luna had already tracked and located Professor Edward's phone and his location was being displayed on the Gear's screen, with a red dot acting as an indicator.
It took Silas a few minutes to get to the building being used by the school of natural sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study, where Professor Edward was working as a professor emeritus.
After walking into the building, Silas followed the resd dot and it didn't take him long before he saw who he was looking for.
In a quiet and empty room that looks to be a library, he saw Professor Edward seated, reading a book, with a pile of books arranged on the table in front of him.
"Professor Edward," Silas said, as he stretched out his hands towards him for an handshake.
An elderly looking man raised up his head to look at the person who called his name and he saw an unfamiliar young man, standing in front of him with one his hands outstretched.
"How many I help you kid?" He asked curiously, as he studied the youth.
Silas seeing that his hand was left hanging, he smiled as he dropped it and walked closer towards Professor Edward.
Silas took a look at the book that professor Edward was reading and nodded. He smiled and picked up one of the exercise book on the table.
Picking up the book, he flipped through it to a blank page and he wrote something on it before passing it to Professor Edward.
Professor Edward is someone with a very calm personality and he's a very patient and understanding person, and he has takes a lot of pride in what he does, but here's something that he hates and would make him quickly lose his cool.
Professor Edward hates for his reading or study session to be disturbed. He can talk to anyone anytime but whenever his study session is on, he goes into another mode.
Everyone in the school of science and the institute of advanced study as a whole knows this. This is reason why he was curious as to the reason why the youth disturbed him but he didn't even get an answer, as the youth smiled, took an exercise book from his table, scribbled something on it and passed it to him.
He was about to about to chase the kid out but as sma very curious individual, he decided to check what he wrote in the book.
Professor Edward's eyes narrowed when he saw what was written on the book. He looked at the text and raised his head to look at Silas, with his curiosity level rising.
With a serious face, he looked at what was written in the book, again and he shook his head.
"This shouldn't be correct," He said to himself, as he turned the exercise book to another blank page and started scribbling away.
The blank page was quickly filled up and he opened to another blank page. The second blank page was also quickly filled up and he opened to another.
He continued scribbling and when the third page was to be filled up, his hands paused for a brief moment and he raised his head to look at Silas' face.
"Are you sure this is correct?" He asked curiously, and Silas nodded.
"Yes, it is," Silas replied.
"If that's so, then why does it look like I'm doing the wrong thing?" Professor Edward asked, as he flipped the pages of the book back to the page that Silas wrote something on.
"That's because you're doing it wrong. Your initial approach to it from the beginning was wrong," Silas said with a smile, and adjusted a chair close to Professor Edward.
"May I?" He asked, pointing to the chair and he received a nod of approval.
He took his seat and looked at Professor Edward intently.
"Professor Edward... Quantum physics? How much do you actually know about it?"
