Shi Liyun walked to the last row and quietly turned on her mobile phone’s video recording, ready to capture Chi Gui in a moment of panic and disarray.
However, just as she opened the camera, she saw Chi Gui walk calmly to the scattered fragments and liquids on the floor, squat down, and check them one by one.
Then, she stood up, pulled out some tissues from the table, wiped her hands, and said without much concern, "It’s not a big deal, I memorized the data and steps for these reagents. Now I’ll dictate them, please take notes."
Everyone: ??
Shi Liyun, who was ready to enjoy the spectacle: ??
She could remember more than five hundred methods just by using her brain?
You must be joking?
Although others still harbored some doubts, they all instinctively turned on their voice recorders.
Shi Liyun pretended to turn on the voice recording on her phone but actually sent a WeChat message to Xue Mingqing: "Master, if a video of Professor Chi bluffing spreads online, what consequences will it bring?"
Xue Mingqing didn’t reply, but seeing that everyone had turned on their voice recorders, Chi Gui began to recite one by one in the order the reagents had been arranged on the table.
As Chi Gui slowly narrated, everyone’s expressions changed from initial skepticism to solemn seriousness, and their posture holding the voice recorders became more deliberate.
They had all participated in the experiment over the past three days and, although they didn’t remember it clearly, they still had an impression of many things.
And every step, every term that Chi Gui mentioned, matched exactly with the memories in their minds, without a single error!
By the time Chi Gui finished, the whole research institute was deathly quiet; everyone just stared at Chi Gui, no one speaking.
Meanwhile, Chi Gui, nonchalantly clapping her hands, said: "Alright, the repetition of the steps is plete. Now, I must ask everyone to work overtime and replicate yesterday’s experiment within a day."
Seeing her casual demeanor, as if she just mentioned "the weather is nice today," everyone felt a chill.
They thought Academician Peng had only brought in a capable person, but it turned out she was more like a superhuman!
pletely beyond normal human capabilities!
Shi Liyun abruptly turned off the video recording and bit her lip hard.
The more she worked closely with Chi Gui these past few days, the more she felt the gap between them—and her heart grew colder.
She had hoped to use this incident to bring Chi Gui down from her pedestal, but instead, the video had proven Chi Gui’s incredible abilities even more!
Just then, her phone vibrated. It was a message from Xue Mingqing: "You have the video? Send it to me to see... Although we can’t disclose the institute’s secrets indiscriminately, as long as I circulate it within a small circle, it will be enough to ruin her reputation pletely!"
A plete fall from grace, my ass!
Shi Liyun couldn’t help but curse in her mind and angrily turned off her phone.
The others had already started to take their positions according to what Chi Gui had just dictated. Seeing Shi Liyun still standing foolishly in place, someone called out, "Professor Shi, what are you dazing off for? Don’t drag everyone else down!"
Recently, she always lagged behind everyone else, and although she worked overtime every day, she still sometimes wasted time.
People in the institute didn’t have a good impression of her.
Shi Liyun hurriedly walked over.
But when she reached the shelf, she saw stars before her eyes.
She had been so focused on recording Chi Gui "making a fool of herself" that she hadn’t paid any attention to what Chi Gui had actually said!
Feeling extremely embarrassed, Shi Liyun could only ask the person next to her for help, "I’m sorry, could you share that recording with me? My voice recorder suddenly broke..."
The person glanced at Shi Liyun, muttered "You really know how to cause trouble," and placed the voice recorder between them, pressing the playback button.
Shi Liyun tried her best to control her emotions and listen carefully to what Chi Gui had said, but she still couldn’t pletely concentrate.
-
Chi Gui did not stay at the scene to replicate the steps of the reagents with the others.
After handling her tasks, she went to the hospital where Lu You was.
