“You’re wrong here. If you drop a few more drops, I’m afraid you’ll blow up the laboratory.”Suddenly, Yu Zhao grabbed Jiang Zhe’s wrist and reminded him with a frown.

Jiang Zhe was slightly stunned. He was stopped by a little girl, and… was touched?

Yu Zhao let go of her hand, picked up the pen, and continued to write the data.

Jiang Zhe lowered his eyes and looked at the wrist that Yu Zhao had held with a complicated expression.

After a long while, he returned to normal and continued to busy himself with his research.

Yu Zhao looked at his back, deep in thought. What was Jiang Zhe’s reaction?

Why did she feel like he was a little reluctant?

No, it must be an illusion!

After a while, Jiang Zhe suddenly received a call. His eyes darkened.

“That’s all for today’s data monitoring. I still have something to do, I’ll leave first.”

“Hey, don’t we need real-time reports?” Yu Zhao whistled and asked deliberately.

Jiang Zhe raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. “That’s all for today. We’ll continue another day.”

“Tsk, tsk. It’s so hard to guess the thoughts of you guys.” Yu Zhao shrugged with a look of pity. “I wanted to continue peeking at you, but it seems like I can only forget about it now.”

“Ha.” Jiang Zhe gave a fake smile. “I hope you remember what you said.”

After he finished speaking, he strode out of the laboratory, leaving behind the dumbfounded Yu Zhao.

W-what did that mean? What did she say?

Yu Zhao touched her neck, baffled.

She turned her head and continued to stare at the experiment results, but her mind couldn’t help but kept thinking.

What did she say?

She didn’t seem to have said anything!

Yu Zhao received a call from Lu Kun on the way to the dormitory.

“Boss, can we skip school today?”

“What?” Yu Zhao raised her brows. Was something big about to happen again?

“The blood test results are out. The ZARE structure in the blood is related to the secret that was banned back then. Come quickly!”

Lu Kun hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

Something that could make Lu Kun so anxious must be something critical.

Yu Zhao sent a message to Gu Li, then walked out of the campus.

However, she had just been punished by the dean today, so she also sent a message to Jiang Zhe.

Yu Zhao: I’m going out to the disco tonight. Please help me ask for leave from the dormitory manager.

After a few minutes, Jiang Zhe replied: Done.

Seeing this, Yu Zhao’s lips curled up. This special privilege was so good to use!

Yu Zhao arrived at Lu Kun’s villa. There were a few paper reports in front of him. “These are the components I extracted from Jiang Zhe’s blood. There’s a type of Hill data related to the secret information that was stolen this time.”

“Have you contacted my teacher?” Yu Zhao raised her brows and glanced at Lu Kun unhappily as if blaming him for not discussing this with her in advance.

“Teacher told me to tell him if there’s any data on Hill.” Lu Kun scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

Yu Zhao pursed her lips and stopped talking. She lowered her head and focused on the data.

After a long time, she said, “It seems that the stolen data is a kind of liquid that the International Mercenary Villains developed to subdue the Mercenary Alliance. This liquid is harmful.”

“Eh? Why did that person take the information away, and how did he know it was Hill?” Lu Kun raised his doubts.

“I’m not sure. But according to the information, Hill is not only a code name but also a core member of the villains’ alliance. Perhaps his death led to the collapse of the alliance.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Kun frowned. “However, the alliance has long been disbanded. Who is this person?”

Yu Zhao shook her head, indicating that she didn’t know.

“Give me some time to think.” She raised her hand and waved.

Lu Kun nodded and turned to leave.

When Yu Zhao was the only one left in the living room, she flipped the paper in her hand over and over again. Finally, she confirmed that this liquid was formed by a mixture of some chemicals. It was highly corrosive and could even melt metal.

She squinted her eyes and the corners of her mouth curved up slightly. So that’s how it is!

This was why that person had refused to tell her what had happened to the villains’ alliance.

It turned out that the person did not join the alliance of his free will, but was forced to do so!

Now, it seemed that there was a trace to everything.

However, how could the ZARE she created contain Hill’s data?

Could it be that all of this was predestined?

Suddenly, a hacker’s message popped up on her phone.

She immediately became alert.

“Hey, Z! The game is about to start.”
