Wang Gang took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and looked again, "Is that Zhao Yi?"

He was still somewhat unsure.

He propped himself up on the podium, tilted his body to the left to take a closer look, then tilted to the right for another look. He looked left, right, up, and down.

"No doubt about it!"

"It is indeed Zhao Yi!"

Wang Gang's somewhat comical actions drew laughter from the students in the classroom, but he didn't mind at all. Instead, he stepped down from the podium, approached Zhao Yi, stared intently at his face and asked, "Academician Zhao? What are you doing here...?"

His tone was somewhat sorrowful.

Zhao Yi was quite troubled too. Sometimes he'd attend lectures, but they were all biology classes where he knew everyone in both classes, so he wasn't usually swarmed by people.
