A few minutes later, Peter finally helped the fainted girl out of the fire.There was a burn the size of a copper coin on his face, and there were many holes in his clothes.

With one person with him, Peter's mobility and sensitivity were greatly reduced, and he could only resist many dangers.Now that he had rushed out safely, Peter also relaxed a little, and the sleepiness that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly came to his head again.

The internal automatic fire protection facilities have controlled the fire on the restaurant floor, and the fire alarm bell was also heard downstairs.More than one-third of the [-]th floor of the Osborne Building are high-risk biochemical laboratories. The security and isolation facilities and systems are naturally the best in the world.A small fire cannot cause too much trouble.

Peter, who was already exhausted, half dragged and half pulled the unconscious girl to a safe area.And Ge Wen, who had been staying here and watching anxiously, finally let out a sigh of relief.

"She needs medical attention." Peter didn't notice Gwen's presence at all.After placing the girl in the corner, she called around in panic. "She has inhaled too much smoke and she needs emergency medical attention."

"Calm down, young man. At least one fifth of the people here have a medical license." An old man in a white coat walked up to Peter.He knelt down and looked at the girl carefully.

"Luckily, her back and arms were slightly burned. The cause of her coma was lack of oxygen, but she was still breathing." The old man did a little inspection and then expressed his judgment. "She should be fine. The medical staff will be here soon. All we need to do now is to sit her upright and keep her breathing flowing."

Peter finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down against the wall, and the old man also began to look at the injuries on his body.

"You'd better wait for someone from the medical department later. Although the burns on your body are not serious, they are still easily infected if not treated." The old man stood up. "You were very brave just now, but also very stupid. If you were not lucky..." He shook his head and did not continue.

But at this time, Peter didn't hear a word and had already fallen asleep.

According to inspections by firefighters, the cause of the fire was man-made.Someone detonated a highly flammable explosive in the kitchen where grease was stored.Although I don’t know who specifically did it, several competitors of the Osborne Group have something to do with it.

All the interns’ afternoon activities were cancelled, which was equivalent to a day off for them.Peter stayed in the medical room for a while and let the doctor do some simple treatment on his wounds before leaving.Harry rushed over to him as he walked out of the ward and gave him a hug.

"You really scared me to death. It's not your idea to risk your life." Seeing that Peter was safe, Harry's heart finally relaxed and he gave Peter a light punch. "Don't be like this next time, ensure your own safety first."

"If I didn't go, that girl might die." Peter still felt that what he did was the right thing.

"I've never seen you as a hero before." Harry made a small joke, and then his tone became a little more serious. "Peter, just do what you are capable of. There is no need for us to risk the name of a hero."

But this is indeed within my ability.

The thought flashed through Peter's mind, but he did not say it out loud.Peter had ostensibly accepted Harry's suggestion.

"I understand Harry, thank you. But at least it turned out pretty good this time, right?"

"This is indeed the best result." Harry nodded, his expression becoming a little worse again. "If I find out which bastard is behind this attack, I'm going to skin him."

"I'll help when the time comes." Peter happily became Harry's verbal accomplice.As if he thought of something, Harry's smile suddenly turned a little lewd.

"Hey, hey." Harry poked Peter twice. "You now have the ability to brag. Let me tell you, those girls like this. Damn it, you don't even have to brag. As long as you tell the truth about what happened to you today, there will definitely be a large group of girls who will come to you to get close to you. .”

His friend turned from a rich man to a pimp on the street in an instant, and Peter covered his forehead helplessly.

After chatting for a few more words, Harry said goodbye hastily. He still had his own matters to deal with.With such a big thing happening in the company, Harry, as the first heir of the Osborne Group, naturally had to be fully involved in the ending of this matter.It was nice to be able to take some time out to just look at Peter.

Peter took the elevator and returned to the place where his intern team stored their schoolbags.Everyone else should have left when the disbandment was announced more than half an hour ago.However, to his surprise, there was still someone waiting for him here.

On the chair outside the storage room, Gwen was sitting there quietly, concentrating on a science magazine in her hand.She raised her head when she heard Peter's footsteps.

"Hello, it's so late and I'm not back yet," Peter said hello proactively, and then felt a little embarrassed.he

His face was covered with a large piece of gauze, and several holes were burned in his pants, making him look quite miserable.

"Well, I stayed to ask a few questions, so the time was delayed a little." After saying this, Gewen blushed for a moment.

But Peter noticed nothing.He came to his cabinet, opened the combination lock with his badge, and took out his schoolbag.

"You're really studious." Peter casually chatted while packing his schoolbag. "Before I came here, I always thought that my studies were pretty good. But compared to you, I'm far behind at least in terms of hard work."

Gwen fell silent, and Peter didn't pay attention.What he wanted to do most now was to rush home as quickly as possible, change his clothes, and then take a nice hot bath.Peter had had enough of the feeling of being covered in gray and having his pants leaking.

Picking up his schoolbag, Peter said hello and was about to turn around and leave.Then before he had even taken a few steps, he was stopped.

"Wait a moment"

Peter turned around in surprise.The blush on Gewen's face became even heavier, and it took her a while before she mustered up enough courage to speak.

"That coffee shop you mentioned yesterday that has really good cheesecake. I want to go there."

Peter didn't react for a moment. "Oh, I forgot to tell you the address of that coffee shop yesterday. It's on the..."

And his words were quickly interrupted by Ge Wen.

"I mean, won't you go with me?" Gewen's face was as red as a persimmon, and her words were a bit incoherent. "Let's go have afternoon tea together, now"

Peter, who finally reacted, suddenly showed what he thought was the brightest smile on his face and nodded.But looking at his tattered coat, his brows furrowed again.

"But my clothes..." Peter hesitated a little, looked at himself, and then at Gwen.

But Ge Wen took the initiative and grabbed his hand.

"I don't care if it doesn't work, why are you embarrassed?"

"Ah hahahaha" Gewen laughed out loud and almost knocked over the coffee on the table. "France...is bacon...hahaha..."

"Well, then I went to see my physics teacher. We had a pretty good relationship at the time." Peter smiled bitterly, took a sip of coffee, and continued.

"I asked him to explain the phrase 'knowledge is power', and he explained it to me patiently for a long time. For example, the power of us humans comes from using the resources around us. I understand all these, but the most important thing is But he didn’t explain a word of that part.”

Gewen was already lying on the table at this time, trying hard not to laugh too exaggeratedly.Her body was twitching constantly, and her abdominal muscles were aching from laughing.

"After he finished speaking, I tentatively asked him: "Is France called bacon?" Then he just looked at me, nodded, and said yes. You can't imagine how confused I was at that time. ..."

Gewen wiped away the tears from laughter on her face and took a few breaths before speaking.

"Then, how did you find out?"

Peter spread his hands. "After our family got the first computer. I searched this question directly on the search engine. When I finally understood the answer, I banged my head against the wall all afternoon..."

Just then, the waiter from the coffee shop walked up to their table. "Sorry, sir and madam. Our store will close in 15 minutes. If you need to order more drinks or snacks, now is your last chance."

"Is it going to close so soon?" Peter looked at the clock on the wall in surprise, only to find that it was almost six o'clock.

"Damn" The first one to stand up was Gewen.She put on her coat urgently. "I'm going to be late going home. Dad won't let me go easily."

Peter also stood up and apologized profusely. "Sorry, I didn't expect three and a half hours to pass so quickly. I should have paid more attention."

Gewen gave him a bright smile.

"It's okay, this afternoon was fun, wasn't it? At least I had a lot of fun."

"I...I'm very happy too." Peter, who had been quite humorous in his conversation just now, suddenly stuttered. "Then I'll see you at the internship tomorrow."

He hoped that he had made a good impression on this lovely girl during their conversation.But to be honest, he had no confidence at all.

"See you tomorrow." Gwen replied. "By the way, thank you for your treat today. Are you free tomorrow afternoon after your internship? I know a restaurant with pretty good pizza. Let's go and have a try. Of course, this time it's my turn to treat you."

“Of course there is no problem at all”

Peter, who was overjoyed, agreed immediately, his attitude so firm that even Gwen was a little startled.
