Chapter 488
The weekend
Jackson rode his bike to the Lynch family. When he saw Richard, he greeted him politely and said, “Richard!”
Richard was happy to see Jackson. “Jackson, are you here for Braydon and Jeffrey? But these two boys were not at home and went out early in the morning…”
“It’s okay, Richard. I don’t want them! I’m looking for Gilly.”
Richard smiled knowingly, “I seel Then I’ll ask Mrs. Harrington to call her down.”
Then Richard greeted Mrs. Harrington, “Tell Gilly that Jackson is here and ask her to go downstairs as soon as possible.”
“No, Richard. I’ll wait for her here.”
As soon as she finished her words, Gilda heard the sound of footsteps coming from the staircase. Then she trotted to the living room and said, “Jackson, you’re here?”
Jackson nodded and turned to Richard. “Richard, let’s go out first.”
Richard hurriedly agreed, “Okay, you guys go
ahead!”
As soon as she went out, Gilda was full of curiosity. “Jackson, where are you taking me? “Why are you so mysterious?”
But Jackson remained silent, “I won’t tell you now. We will know soon.”
Gilda replied, “Okay.”
Jackson got on the bike and extended a sincere invitation, “Get in!”
Gilda didn’t hesitate for a moment and got into the back seat of the bike. Seeing that she sat well, Jackson stepped on the pedal and rode away slowly.
When they arrived at the destination, Gilda was full of suspicion. “Jackson, where am I?”
Jackson pulled her arm and said, “Let’s go in.”
They entered the room and saw various instruments for physics experiments. These strange- looking instruments immediately attracted Gilda’s interest.
“Jackson, what is this?”
Chapter 488
“That’s a convex–concave mirror.”
“What a strange look! What about this one?”
“That’s a resistance box with an ohmmeter and current tester next to it.”
After entering the physics experiment, Gilda was like a curious baby and full of curiosity about everything.
Jackson answered her questions patiently until they walked to the other side of the lab.
Then Jackson stopped and looked at her. “Would you like to try a physics experiment?”
Gilda asked uncertainly, “Me?”
“Well, let’s have a try.”
Gilda originally resisted, “No, I won’t do it.”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ll give it a try.”
Under Jackson’s patient persuasion, Gilda finally agreed. Jackson led her to do the experiment of pinhole imaging step by step.
After the experiment,
Gilda looked at her experimental results in surprise and exclaimed, “It is upside down. What’s going on?”
Jackson patiently explained to her, “The principle of pinhole imaging is that light will travel in a straight line in the same uniform medium without being disturbed by gravity. That’s how light travels.”
After listening to Jackson’s explanation, Gilda thought it was quite interesting. “Jackson, can you take me to do other experiments?”
Seeing that she was interested, Jackson didn’t hesitate for a moment and took her to do all the physics experiments in this school year’s textbook.
They stayed in the lab from day to night. After a while, Jackson raised his wrist and checked the time. “It’s getting late, Gilly. We should go back now.”
But Gilda was reluctant to leave. “No, this experiment hasn’t been finished yet. We can go back after the experiment is done and the results are produced…”
