Chapter 844 A Shocking Reversal
âAre you sure you can produce the results of the experiment today?â Marshall asked cautiously, fearing to put pressure on Catherine.
But watching Catherine calmly enter and exit the lab every day, he was really curious.
The final key steps were all manipulated by Catherine. Although Marshall participated in the entire experiment, he did not know about the final progress of the experiment.
âThe results of the phase one experiment are out. Itâs not ideal, but it shouldnât be too much of a problem to take it for certification,â Catherine replied.
Hearing this, Marshallâs face immediately showed a delighted expression. âThatâs great. Youâre right to think like that. Certify it first and then slowly experiment with the next step. Then Iâll take my leave first. Iâll let you focus.â
After getting the good news, Marshall left the lab and left Catherine to focus on the experiment.
Catherine stretched lazily and continued to busy herself with the work at hand. She sorted out all the information and inputted it into the computer for archiving.
Amelia walked in. She came to bring Catherine the information. âSuper Catherine, I see Professor Hartley walk out with a smile on his face just now. Did the experiment succeed?â
Everyone saw Marshall enter the lab with a sad face, and then walk out with a smile on his face.
There was nothing other than Catherineâs experimental results that could make Marshall, who was always serious in speech and manner, so happy.
Amelia was genuinely happy for Catherine. Although she hadnât spent much time with Catherine, she could see that Catherine had put a lot of time and effort into this experiment.
âSort of,â Catherine responded to Amelia faintly.
Hearing her ambiguous answer, Amelia felt a bit strange. She rarely heard Catherine say something so uncertain.
Seeing her curiosity, Catherine gave her the answer. âThere are still small problems. It canât be considered a success at the moment, but it shouldnât be a problem to take this result for certification.â
It was very normal for such a big experiment to have various small problems. For Catherine to make it this far was already something many people wouldnât even dare to think about.
Seeing that Catherine didnât seem to be happy, Amelia hastened to comfort her. âThis is already impressive. Donât put too much pressure on yourself. Everything will have a solution, just take your time. Youâre Super Catherine. Youâll definitely succeed, and the result will be absolutely perfect.â
Ameliaâs expression was unusually serious, and the admiration in her eyes was undisguised.
Catherine was infected by her happiness, and a little more smile appeared on her face as well. âThank you.â
Amelia didnât dare to delay Catherine more for fear of disturbing her, so she left the lab.
Shortly after Amelia came out, everyone in the lab knew the progress of Catherineâs research.
Although everyone had already guessed the result from Marshallâs expression, but then after Ameliaâs confirmation, they instantly affirmed the news.
Everyone knew the importance of the experiment though. Until Catherine herself made a public announcement, the news would be spread only in the lab and would not be disseminated externally.
After Flash received the information, his cold eyes immediately tinged with a smile.
He wasnât worried about the experiment not succeeding, nor was he worried about Catherine not being able to complete the experiment. As long as he could get enough certified information, they would have the leverage to negotiate with Catherine.
Flash first found Ronin. He gave him an explanation of the situation and then brought him to Winston. âThereâs a computer here. Can you two get started?
Winston looked at Ronin with a distressed face and said in a sad tone, Ronin, donât have too much mental burden. Iâll bear everything.â
Hearing this, Flash sneered and looked at Ronin. âRonin, I really envy you for having such a good teacher. You need to cherish it.â
The warning in his words was clear to Ronin. Ronin knew that Flash was giving him a precautionary warning and that Flash was worrying that he wouldnât listen to him.
Ronin glared at him expressionlessly, then sat down in front of the computer. He was ready to get things started.â Professor Warner, letâs get started.â
Winston nodded with a helpless look on his face. âOkay.â
Ronin set up the program, and with his previous experience, he quickly hacked into Catherineâs computer.
After the first layer firewall was breached, the next was a defense system set by Winston himself.
Although the defense system was set up by Winston, it was set up on Catherineâs computer after all, and it would take a bit of a cracking process to get in through an external computer.
âHow long will it take approximately?â Flash inquired anxiously.
Winston estimated and gave the time. â If itâs fast, itâll take an hour, but if itâs slow, itâs hard to sayâ¦â
Hearing this, Flashâs brows immediately furrowed. Thinking Winston was playing a trick, he reached out and yanked Winston to his feet with a fierce hand.
Winston was a veritable bookworm, the kind who was powerless. He was easily yanked up by Flash in an instant.
Seeing this, Ronin was instantly enraged. âBrat, you put him down!â
He directly rushed up and wrestled with Flash.
Flash flung Winston away to deal with Ronin at full strength. The two immediately got into a fight.
It didnât take long for Flashâs men to arrive. But before they could do anything, Flash had already overpowered Ronin and pressed him to the floor.
If Flash didnât have absolute confidence in his ability to subdue Ronin, he wouldnât have been alone with Ronin and Winston.
Although Ronin was pressed to the floor, he did not stop struggling. He frantically twisted his body to break free from the grip of Flash.
The men who rushed in used the electric baton to directly electrocute Ronin to the floor, making him unable to struggle.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Winston became anxious. âWhat are you doing? Stop it. Donât hurt Ronin.â
Ronin struggled to raise his head. He stared angrily at Flash and shouted fiercely, âIf you have the guts, you can kill me.â
Flash yanked Ronin up by his hair and scowled at him with cold eyes. âI wonât kill you, but believe it or not, I have a hundred ways to make your life worse than death.â
Ronin was fearless in the face of the threat. Although he was restricted from moving, his attitude was still strong. Fine, you do it. Iâd like to see who will die before me.â 11
Tomorrow would be the time for certification. If Flash and his men still couldnât get the information today, his boss would definitely not let him off.
Flashâs gloomy face became unusually gloomy. He gritted his teeth and pulled Ronin angrily. âWhat exactly do you want?â
Ronin looked at him without showing any weakness. âAs I said, if you want me to cooperate with you, be polite to me and donât hurt my teacher.
Otherwise, I guarantee that you will die before me, and all of your men will be killed at the same time as you are killed.
Roninâs words shocked everyone present.
They were able to get Ronin killed easily, but once something happened to Ronin, they wouldnât end up any better.
To get Ronin to cooperate, Flash could only take the lead and bow his head.
He reached out to help Ronin up and personally patted the dust off of him. And then he signaled with his eyes for Ronin to ask him to go back and continue.
Ronin sneered. âHuh, thatâs it?â
