Chapter 2412

Finally, Lily opened her eyes and slowly sat up. “You studied medicine, yet you can’t tell me what it contains?”

Rhea turned and studied the contents of the apparatus with a frown. However, she still could not tell even after sniffing at it. She roared, “You’re just bluffing!”

She noticed her hand was reddish on one side as if it had been scalded. Even so, what she touched was not hot. Some liquid flowed out from the several bottles that she knocked over.

Still, Lily did not look nervous, as if she did not mind them. She even refilled her teacup and casually took a sip. She then said with a half-smile, “Why? You don’t know what they are? It’s okay—you can tell me.”

“They’re just some corrosive chemicals. What’s so special about them?” Rhea said, “I only burned my hand because you tricked me.”

“I warned you, didn’t I?” Glancing at her, Lily put down her tea while glancing at Rhea before heading toward her.

The former looked at Rhea’s injured hand and then at the table, continuing, “You’re wrong. Those aren’t corrosive chemicals. Honestly, even I don’t know what they are.”

Rhea was bewildered.

“Don’t look at me like that. I genuinely don’t know what those are.” Lily chuckled and leaned to the side.

“As you know, I’m in the experimental stage, so I must remain open-minded.

“I’m trying to mix non-compatible chemicals to see what changes they bring.”

Tilting her head, Lily looked at the stuff beside her. “See? The results are surprising.”

“Have you gone mad?!” Rhea exclaimed despite herself. Having done countless experiments, she thought it was ridiculous to mix chemicals without a clear goal.

“It’s normal for accidents to happen. As someone who has experimented often, you should know, shouldn’t you?” After a pause, Lily thought of something. “Oh, yeah, didn’t you have an accident once and blow up the whole place?

“You even… faked your death, didn’t you? It’s not fair if only you can go crazy.”

Lily sneered and then turned to leave.

“That was different!” Rhea said, “Wait a minute. Just what kind of experiment are you conducting?

What are you up to?”

“It’s none of your damn business,” Lily said bluntly, “Have I ever asked about your experiments?”

“If you ask me, I’ll tell you,” Rhea said, as if offering to exchange information.

“Sorry, I’m not interested.” Lily waved no, looking uninterested.

The more she did so, the more exasperated Rhea became. “Aren’t you curious about what harmful experiment I’m conducting?”

Lily found it laughable that Rhea would admit it. The former sat back on the recliner and looked at her.

“So you admit you’ve been harming people? So you know what you’re doing, yet you claim to be advancing science. What a joke.

You’re a disgrace to all scientists.”

Rhea ignored that and said, “You aren’t even experimenting, are you? I know you’re just trying to buy time. Am I right?”
