Zhiruo couldn't help but open her mouth. She numbly put her hand under her chin and forced her mouth closed.

She seemed to be about to speak but stopped herself, her hands busy with something.

Under Qin Jiu's puzzled gaze, Zhiruo scratched her head and touched her face, struggling between two answers: whether she had heard it wrong and whether Qin Jiu was crazy.

After she confirmed it in her mind countless times, she finally confirmed the answer that she was most reluctant to believe.

She really wanted to tell Qin Jiu that he was overestimating his own abilities, but when facing Qin Jiu, she didn't know how to say the words that were already on her lips.

After she used body language for a long time, she finally gave up struggling.

Zhiruo took a deep breath and exhaled a long time. She said, "Although logically I shouldn't discourage your enthusiasm, but in reality, isn't your idea a bit too much..." She thought for a long time and finally found a relatively appropriate word, and added, "Grand?"

Qin Jiu, however, didn't seem to notice the hidden meaning in Zhiruo's words. She even comforted Zhiruo: "Don't worry about me being too tired. I'm in good spirits. I can take two more classes a day without any problem!"

Zhiruo was defeated by Qin Jiu's optimistic and naive attitude. She was silent for a long time and decided to give up communicating.

She patted Qin Jiu's shoulder gently and said earnestly: "Then I wish you good luck."

Qin Jiu smiled and responded: "Thank you."

After Zhiruo left, Qin Jiu went to the experimental building to visit Bai Xue.

Judging from Bai Xue's recovery, she should be able to return to him in two days.

However, Qin Jiu thought that it was better for Bai Xue to live in the experimental building with someone to serve her than to sleep in the empty teaching building.

Qin Jiu was considering whether he should discuss with Dr. Li whether Bai Xue could continue to live in the laboratory building before they returned to Xinghuang.

When Bai Xue saw Qin Jiu, she stood up and wagged her tail.

The happiest time of the day for Bai Xue is when Qin Jiu comes to visit her after school.

I don’t know how long it will take me to leave here. It feels so lonely without Qin Jiu’s side.

As usual, Qin Jiu touched Snow White, coaxed the little princess, and stayed close to it for a while before leaving.

When Qin Jiu went downstairs, she remembered that Dr. Li was most likely in Professor Arnold's laboratory. After going downstairs, she walked towards the laboratory.

I don’t know if it was because it was lunchtime and everyone went to eat, or if they were all busy in the laboratory, the corridor was quiet, with only Qin Jiu walking around.

The light from the ceiling shone on the empty corridor, appearing somewhat pale.

As Qin Jiu walked further inside, the temperature around him dropped.

Although Porcelain King Planet is cold, people rarely set the temperature that low indoors.

The doors on both sides were arranged symmetrically and all closed, with not a single light coming from inside, which made people feel inexplicably creepy.

Qin Jiu's footsteps echoed throughout the corridor, as if stepping on her heart one by one, and her heartbeat gradually quickened.

In this situation, Qin Jiu couldn't help but think of the bad scenes he saw in entertainment movies and TV shows, which made him feel...

It feels like being in a morgue!

The laboratory building seemed a little different today than usual. Qin Jiu was considering whether to go back and see Dr. Li tomorrow.

She had just stopped and was about to retreat when she heard voices coming from the room next to her.

Because of the door, the voices inside were not clearly audible. Qin Jiu couldn't help but move closer and called out softly, "Is that Doctor Li?"

The conversation inside did not stop, but no one responded to Qin Jiu's call.

She moved closer and could vaguely hear the conversation inside.

It was the voices of Dr. Li and Professor Arnold.

"Can you find out the identity of this person?"

"I have applied for a database transfer, but strangely I can't find anyone matching his information."

"Someone covered it up for him?"

"If that's the case, our situation is dangerous. The other party may have infiltrated us."

"Until the truth is found out, who can believe it?"

"I do not know."

"Don't be too pessimistic. Let our military handle these matters. After I return, I will request a high-level meeting to discuss the solution to this matter. Professor Arnold, just do your job well and don't be affected by other things."

"Understood, Admiral Xisite."

"Admiral Xisite, do you have another purpose for coming here this time?"

"Yes, but the little girl has her own ideas, and we respect her choice. But Dr. Li, your War Beast Medical Center is not kind! Why did I hear that you have already planned to go to Xinghuang?"

"Ahem... You misunderstood. Lightning and Shirayuki... Oh, and Mingyue, they haven't had a physical examination for a long time. They are going to work."

"is it?"

Qin Jiu originally thought that eavesdropping was not a good idea, but when he heard the names of Lightning and Bai Xue, he couldn't help but want to listen a few more words.

Just as she was about to get closer to the door, she suddenly heard an angry shout from behind: "Don't move! Put your hands up!"

Judging from the direction and volume of the sound, the person who said this was behind me, and was most likely speaking to me.

Not knowing whether the other party had a weapon in his hand, Qin Jiu decided to cooperate with the other party for safety reasons.

Qin Jiu slowly raised his hands and defended himself: "I'm not a bad person, I'm a student here, and I'm here to see Doctor Li."

The man didn't completely believe Qin Jiu's words: "Turn around slowly."

Qin Jiu cooperated and turned around. When she saw who the other person was, she was a little amused.

The man pointed the tranquilizer gun at Qin Jiu, and for a moment Qin Jiu thought he had traveled through time.

The same familiar two people, the same familiar actions, had appeared in Star Emperor not long ago.

It's Ace!

Dr. Li's assistant.

The first time they met, Ace pointed the tranquilizer gun at Qin Jiu and Qiuqiu. Although Qiuqiu was not there when they met the second time, everything else was still the same formula, with a familiar taste.

The two people's actions were exactly the same as before.

Ace was a little surprised to see Qin Jiu's familiar face, but he quickly recognized Qin Jiu's identity. He put down the tranquilizer gun and said with a smile, "It's you. Long time no see."

Qin Jiu put down his hands and smiled and replied: "Long time no see."

Ace: "You want to see Dr. Li? Dr. Li is inside, but you have to wait a while, he is busy. You can come to our office and wait for him."

Qin Jiu and Ace left together. Qin Jiu asked as they walked, "Why does it feel like the temperature is a little low today?"

Hearing this, Ace did not directly answer her question. He looked evasive and said, "Oh, maybe there is something wrong with the temperature control."

Qin Jiu looked as if he understood what was going on and did not ask any further questions.

But her sixth sense told her that things were not that simple.
