Quickly wear: There are always those who are not afraid of death and want to torture me

Several thoughts circulated rapidly in his mind, and finally he made the final decision:

"In that case, just follow me. You are here to be my assistant anyway, aren't you?"

Selene said in his usual cold tone.

The next second, not only Merkley looked surprised, the blue-haired young man also almost cheered in surprise: "Is it really possible?! It's great! Thank you so much, Professor! I thought I needed to intern for a while It’s time. Just tell me what you need me to do.”

Selene glanced at the light screen in her hand, threw it to him, and said: "From today on, you will be responsible for organizing and summarizing the daily data in the laboratory. Remember to report it to me."

"Merkley, teach him how to use it." After saying that, he opened his long legs and went to check the situation of the experimental box on the other side.

Merkley was left standing there with a shocked expression on his face, while Mochin stood opposite him with his back straightened, looking ready.

"Okay... I think your work can begin... But you have to know that Professor Peel has never been special to anyone. Let's put it this way, he especially hates interns who come in through connections. How quickly? I started to reuse you, which is quite surprising to be honest." Merkley told him truthfully.

Mo Qin had a brisk and joyful look on his face: "Really? Doesn't that prove that the professor has some recognition of my work ability?"

After the small talk, Merkley dutifully explained to Mochin his next work content.

"Congratulations, you have officially entered the laboratory from today. This is your name tag." Then, Merkley handed him a metal name tag with Mochin's bust printed on it.

It clearly says "Researcher Tixi Bolton of the First Imperial Research Institute".

Mo Qin smiled and stood at his seat. He greeted his colleagues who came in and started working.

The work in the morning was very boring. Mo Qin spent half of his time recording data and the other half writing experimental summaries and reports.

When lunch finally arrived, the researchers in the laboratory could hardly stand upright.

Only Professor Peel could walk to the cafeteria without changing his expression and as light as the wind after experiencing such intense experimental work.

"Professor Peel!" After seeing Selene from a distance, the blue-haired young man walked towards him holding a dinner plate, his face full of joy.

Sitting down opposite him, Mo Qin looked at the man's restrained and elegant way of eating. He was afraid that if he picked an extra pod on the spoon, it would leak to the ground. He couldn't help but smile lightly and said: "I always feel that the professor is very polite in everything he does. Dignified, it certainly looks like that.”

"Your Excellency Tixi, do you have any questions?" Selene said in a cold voice.

For the first time, Mo Qin didn't chase people away and didn't say a lesson about "eating without speaking before sleeping", which made Mo Qin feel a little flattered.

"It's nothing, I just think that professors have their own set of rules of conduct for everything they do, which is cool," he said.

Selene replied coldly: "What we are studying is the empire's top secret, and it has nothing to do with 'cool'."

"Yes," the young man who was scolded stopped his joking and replied seriously, "I understand what you mean. I will work hard, Professor."

The conversation ended there.

However, a failed strike-up did not dampen the young man's strong desire for communication.

In the days that followed, almost every day, whether commuting or during meal time, one could always see a scene like this in the institute. A blue-haired young man trotted behind Professor Peel, who was always alone and aloof, saying something irrelevant. Important topics---

"The weather is nice today, Professor Peel."

"You came very early today, Professor."

"Professor, I heard that today's lunch has fried lamb chops. Do you like fried lamb chops?"

"Look, Professor, there is a report about you in today's news."

What really shocked everyone in the institute was that although Selene still served as the "topic terminator" in these conversations, he did not refuse the young man's deliberate approach again and again.

Within a month, Mo Qin became the person closest to the professor in the institute.

He is young and energetic and never admits defeat despite repeated defeats.Although everyone was secretly placing bets to see how long it would take for him to be rejected by the professor, they secretly hoped that this handsome boy could stay so cheerful.

Soon after, after staying up for several long nights doing experiments and looking for data, the research on regeneration technology finally broke through the last obstacle and entered the verification stage.

This is a historic moment.Everyone in the laboratory was filled with joy.

Everyone made an appointment to have dinner at a restaurant near the Imperial City Building on the weekend, and even Selene, who never liked socializing, readily agreed.

At the end of the day's work, Mochin and Selene were the last two people left.

After turning off the power of each instrument, Selene noticed the young man standing by the door, staring at him deeply.

I couldn't help but ask: "Tixi? It's time to get off work, why haven't you left yet?"

The young man showed a smile and replied: "I see you are still here, and I don't want you to leave alone."

Selene paused slightly and said, "Don't think so, I'm used to it."

While sorting out the final information, the young man suddenly asked something: "By the way, Professor. Actually, after working in the institute for so long, I have always been curious about something."

Selene was in a good mood and let him say: "What's the matter?"

Moqin said: "You dissected a mermaid two years ago. You also brought back some pieces of meat from his body. I heard that the source of regeneration technology is these pieces of meat from the mermaid. But I haven't seen it since I came here. Got through."

Selene paused while packing up the information, inevitably thinking of the beautiful silver-tailed mermaid.

"You seem to like asking about mermaids."

"Well," Mo Qin did not deny, "I grew up in Haicheng. I have heard legends about mermaids from adults since I was a child. It is said that they are magical creatures that cannot be explained by science. From that time on , it is my dream to study mermaids and figure out their secrets.”

Hearing this, Selene's cold lips raised a faint smile: "Your dream is quite consistent with mine."

Then, I didn't know what he thought of, and asked: "Do you want to take a look?"

"what?"

"See what mermaid flesh looks like." Selene turned around, her face cast in the shadow of the laboratory.Only the light reflected from his lenses could be seen, and his dark blue eyes were as mysterious as the vast ocean.
