Sal盯着她好奇的走到吧台后面,竟然是一个美丽的亚洲女人。在Sal看来,Asian girl到酒吧,不是考好了,就是考差了,她的模样一点也不像考好了。
她皮肤很白,安静又乖巧。
不像是会跟兄弟会或者橄榄球队队长make out的人。
Sal错误估计亚洲女人的年龄,向她索要身份证,之后和她聊了几句。
风笑知随意和她打了招呼,Sal当时一头爆炸黑人卷发,她只是想表达善意,便说,【That hair is on point.】
【Thanks girl.】Sal美美的说,【I bought it yesterday.】
当时酒吧没人,Sal请她喝酒,但她什么心事也没说,后来风笑知常在白天没人的时候去找她,二人一来二去熟悉了很多,Sal是个没读过什么书很早就在社会上谋生的人,她热情的邀请风笑知晚上也要去看看她的表演。
小圆听得下巴张得老大。
什么嘛姐姐这个人。
在家里一副孤傲清冷的样子,实际上烟酒都来啊?
怪不得忍冬嘲笑她。
原来姐姐根本不需要别人为她挡酒。
她们很随意的聊天,Sal又问起姐姐回国的事,问忍冬是跟那件事有关吗,小圆竖起耳朵急忙问,【What thing?Tell me!Tell me!】
人类的本质就是八卦,Sal一听更来劲了,无视忍冬的遮掩,跟小圆相见恨晚,在小沙发上扭来扭去。
她说,去年,也许是秋天。
姐姐去找她喝酒。
但那天白天很忙,她没有空,等送走一波客人回吧台的时候,姐姐仍坐在高脚凳上,她颓丧的撑在吧台上,用Sal的原话,就是——
“She'd ordered a flaming Sambuca……..and just watched it burn.”
小圆走了一下神。
去年秋天。
她隐约记得这个时间好像发生了什么,但她想不起来了。
Sal说,她一定遇到了什么事。她打电话叫忍冬来接她——
小圆还搞不清楚是什么事,姐姐就回了病房,她看得出她的名声被毁,于是无情的逐客,【Time's up.Get going now.】
姐姐从来不分享自己的事。
小圆和她的关系时好时坏,更不会去打听这些了——
可如果Sal说的是真的……
那姐姐……
并不完全是被妈妈赶回来的?
第208章
回家之后。
因为马上就要过年,施工队已经放假回家了,姐姐不用去实验室监工,加上刚出院,一直在家好好的静养。
小白和阿福在沙发上陪她。
小圆一直很介意Sal说的事,去年秋天,什么事来着,她也不是一点有用的消息都没听到,就比如Sal提到的那个密度理论。
姐姐的名字加关键词。
那篇报道很快的跳出来了。
Title:The Collapse of Density Gradient Theory in Non-Newtonian Fluids: A Decade of Research in Crisis

Abstract
For over a decade, the Density Gradient Theory (DGT) has served as a cornerstone for modeling shear-thickening behaviors in complex fluid systems. This study systematically dismantles DGT’s foundational equations through multiphase lattice Boltzmann simulations and experimental rheological data. Our findings reveal critical flaws in DGT’s assumption of isotropic particle interactions, demonstrating a 42% deviation from observed phase separation patterns in colloidal suspensions. Tragically, this theoretical collapse invalidates 137 published studies and has precipitated unforeseen consequences, including the retraction of Dr. Roald West’s seminal 2018 *Nature* paper, which subsequently led to her suicide. Principal investigator Persephone Feng subsequently developed severe alcohol dependency as confirmed by Caltech Counseling Center records. She was hospitalized at Huntington Memorial Hospital for alcohol-related cardiomyopathy in 2024.

Key Findings
1. Mathematical Contradictions
- DGT’s core equation 。( 。nabla 。rho = 。kappa 。dot{。gamma}^2 。) fails to account for asymmetric boundary conditions (Fig. 3a).
- Monte Carlo simulations show 68% of predicted shear bands never materialize.
2. Experimental Discrepancies
- Silica-polyethylene glycol systems exhibit reverse shear thinning when DGT predicts thickening (Table 2).
- Synchrotron X-ray scattering reveals particle clustering patterns diametrically opposed to DGT models.
3. Domino Effect
- West’s "Shear-Activated Nanocomposite" theory (DOI:10.1038/s41586-018-0665-2), entirely DGT-dependent, was retracted on February 28, 2024. Surveillance footage shows Dr. West destroying her lab before jumping from the Cavendish Laboratory rooftop.
