Seeing Tang Tianyi with such a lost expression, Luo Chao felt a bit embarrassed.

He's just that kind of person, soft-hearted but firm.

If a big, burly man, fierce and aggressive, were to grab Luo Chao by the collar and force him to reveal his conclusions, Luo Chao definitely wouldn't comply.

On the contrary, if Luo Chao were really to encounter such a situation, he would most likely not just easily reveal his conclusions, but possibly slap that muscular man in the face, beat him up, or even make him kneel and sing "Conquer" right in front of him.

However, once Luo Chao encounters a cute girl like Tang Tianyi, his attitude makes a complete 180-degree turn.

Luo Chao has always liked cute girls, and what he cannot stand the most is seeing a cute girl with a sad expression, let alone that this cute girl Tang Tianyi in front of him is feeling lost because of his attitude.

Thinking about this, Luo Chao quickly cleared his throat and consoled her, "Miss Tang, I'm not doubting you. It's just that what you said is incredibly strange and bizarre; I must hear your full account of the situation before I can give my conclusion. Otherwise, giving a careless conclusion would be irresponsible!"

After Luo Chao's explanation, Tang Tianyi felt a lot more relieved.

Indeed, those who work in the field of science need strict scientific theoretical evidence for what they say and cannot just speak recklessly.

Moreover, those in scientific work must also embrace a mindset of questioning everything. But doubt should be reasonable, not random; you must also have your own coherent theory.

Otherwise, it's not really doubt but simply arguing for the sake of arguing!

Having thought this through, Tang Tianyi's previously furrowed brows finally relaxed, and the expression on her face transitioned from a lost look to a cold and detached one, devoid of warmth and color.

Seeing Tang Tianyi's expression change so rapidly, even the battle-hardened Luo Chao couldn't help but shiver.

Luo Chao felt that Tang Tianyi was simply not human; she was like a highly intelligent robot!

Staring at Tang Tianyi's unapproachable expression, a thought even popped into Luo Chao's mind, "I should have never comforted her. No matter what, her lost expression, although sad, was much more pleasant to look at than this stiff, cold face now!"

But regret is just regret; all Luo Chao could do was regret. There's no medicine for regret in this world, and what's past is past, history after all is just history.

Since what Luo Chao had said earlier had changed Tang Tianyi's expression, it would be too inhumane for him to deliberately make her feel lost now.

Although Luo Chao can be pretty shameless, he hasn't sunk to a level lacking humanity; he still has his principles.

However, this little theater of thoughts in Luo Chao's mind didn't affect Tang Tianyi at all.

Tang Tianyi didn't know that such an ordinary change of expression on her face could trigger so many strange thoughts in Luo Chao.

After hearing what Luo Chao had to say, she simply nodded and continued, "The classroom suddenly became very quiet, but I was so scared that sweat was dripping down. You might find it hard to imagine just how terrifying that scene was..."

"I can imagine it." Luo Chao squinted his eyes, lit a cigarette, took a drag, and exhaled, sending smoke rings drifting slowly through the lab's air.

"You..." Tang Tianyi pointed at Luo Chao, wanting to say something but hesitating.

"Trust me, I can imagine it. Back in the days when I was in the army, on a mission in the Golden Triangle, those drug traffickers, those poisons, my teammates wounded and dead from the gunfire of the drug dealers, covered in blood, bathed in a hail of bullets. At that time, I had only one thought in my mind, which was..."

Luo Chao was still about to continue, but Tang Tianyi suddenly extended a slender white finger to stop him at his lips.

Luo Chao shook his head slightly. He understood that Tang Tianyi was preventing him from his recollections; she couldn't bear to see him tormented by the painful past.

Thinking of this, Luo Chao was almost moved to tears just when Tang Tianyi's next words almost made Luo Chao spew out a mouthful of old blood in exasperation!

"Please don't smoke in my lab, thank you."

Tang Tianyi said coldly, simultaneously pulling the cigarette directly from Luo Chao's mouth with force.

Tang Tianyi threw the cigarette to the ground and crushed the butt with the heel of her high heel shoe.

"Next time, if I see you smoking in my lab again, it won't just be the cigarette that gets stomped."

Tang Tianyi threatened Luo Chao, eyeing him below, causing Luo Chao's little brother to shrink, a chill to run down his back, and three beads of cold sweat to fall mercilessly from his forehead.

"Gulp." Luo Chao swallowed hard, "Hehe, you should have said so earlier..." Luo Chao said awkwardly.

"Hmph!" After extinguishing Luo Chao's cigarette butt, Tang Tianyi snorted coldly and continued, "At that time, I was very scared, but I knew being scared wouldn't help. I don't know how long it was quiet around me, and I knew I wasn't dead yet, which meant that the Pen Immortal was likely already contained in my Isolator!"

"So, I opened my eyes in the darkness. The surroundings of the classroom were still pitch black, but only the moonlight coming through the window told me I was still in the human world."

"I looked down at the Isolator I was holding and saw occasional arcs of sparks flashing inside. This scene was exactly as I imagined it would be when successfully capturing the Pen Immortal! At that moment, I knew I had succeeded!"

Tang Tianyi grew more and more excited as she spoke, it was clear that the success of her scientific experiment had made her forget the earlier fear.

Clap clap clap!

After listening to Tang Tianyi's story, Luo Chao applauded her, "Not bad, not bad, and then? How did you handle Jiang's body? The two of you sneaked into a police-sealed site in the middle of the night, and one person died. I think the police wouldn't leave it at that!"

"You're right. I knew that if the police came, they might confiscate my Isolator, rendering my experiment in vain. So after the experiment was successful, I just ran away without reporting it..." Tang Tianyi said unhurriedly.

"What?!" Luo Chao widened his eyes in shock, "You just ran away? What about Jiang's body? The two of you are friends, aren't you?"
