Upon hearing Tang Tianyi speak to this point, Luo Chao finally couldn't help but interrupt her.
"Miss Tang, so what you're saying is, this black stream of air-like thing is the legendary Pen Immortal that's famous in Huaxia, which has even inspired nurous terrible dostic horror films?!" Luo Chao asked in puzzlent.
"Exactly." Tang Tianyi nodded calmly.
"But isn't the Pen Immortal supposed to be a female ghost dressed in a red gown with disheveled hair?" Luo Chao was full of doubt, "Yet this thing... it doesn't look like a female ghost at all!"
"I wouldn't know about that, since I don't have your special abilities, so I have no idea what the real Pen Immortal looks like," Tang Tianyi continued in a cold tone.
"In any case..." Tang Tianyi paused briefly and then continued, "In any case, after I heard the news about the six students getting killed, I built this super ionic isolator."
As Tang Tianyi was halfway through her words, Luo Chao couldn't help but ask sarcastically, "And then you took this machine to catch the Pen Immortal?"
Tang Tianyi shot Luo Chao a disdainful look, seeming to deeply contempt Luo Chao for his uncivil behavior of repeatedly interrupting her.
"Gaga." Seeing Tang Tianyi's disdainful glance, Luo Chao scratched his head and quickly donned an embarrassed expression, letting out an awkward laugh.
At the sa ti, he extended a hand and made a "please" gesture towards Tang Tianyi, "Hahaha, I'm sorry, Miss Tang, I just couldn't resist the urge to interrupt. Please go on, I promise not to disrupt again next ti!"
"Hmph." Tang Tianyi gave Luo Chao another glare, then coldly snorted and continued in her icy tone, "That night, I sneaked into that school with this super ionic isolator."
"When I got to the classroom where the incident happened, I mimicked the way others played the Pen Immortal ga and started playing."
"Wait a minute!" At that mont, Luo Chao's voice suddenly broke the silence once again.
Tang Tianyi was utterly unprepared for Luo Chao's interruption; he was as annoying as an old and botherso monkey, once more cutting short her narration.
However, this ti, Luo Chao paid no mind to Tang Tianyi's displeased gaze and said earnestly, "I'm not going to ask how you managed to enter the cri scene, which was sealed by the police, but I can't understand one thing about you playing the Pen Immortal ga in there."
"Can't understand? Haha, why don't you go ahead and tell what's puzzling you?"
Being interrupted by Luo Chao over and over, even the usually emotionless Tang Tianyi, would use the "sneer" thod for high-level contempt.
"Miss Tang, as far as I know, doesn't the Pen Immortal ga require at least two people to start the ga?"
"That ans the ga needs two people to hold a pen together and then write or draw sothing on paper."
"But, from what you just said, it seems like you were alone the whole ti?" Luo Chao asked in a doubtful tone.
"Sigh." Hearing Luo Chao's words, Tang Tianyi sighed helplessly, "You're right, the Pen Immortal ga indeed requires at least two people to play, so I wasn't alone that night."
"Oh?" Luo Chao was surprised, but not too much, since the Pen Immortal ga does indeed require at least two participants.
What surprised him more wasn't that soone played the ga with Tang Tianyi, but that soone was willing to do such a thing with such an unusual person.
So what Luo Chao was now most curious about was the identity of that person.
Who in the world could collaborate with soone like Tang Tianyi, who is considered a strange person by ordinary people, to do such a terrifying experint?
Though Luo Chao didn't dare claim he was a saint, ever since he followed his master to cultivate, his mindset had improved a lot, becoming quite detached from worldly concerns, reminiscent of the detachnt of cultivators in fantasy novels.
Thus, he could engage in such lengthy conversations with soone like Tang Tianyi, who was seen as a freak by the general public.
"Oh? Who could it be that's willing to do such a thing with you!" Luo Chao asked.
"An intern." Tang Tianyi replied calmly, "He's a graduate of Hua Dan University. He seed very interested in my scientific experints. I t him during a trip to Hua Dan University to get so equipnt, and he added on WeChat."
"Afterwards, he often sought my advice on scientific research topics, expressing keen interest in independent research and entrepreneurship like mine as a self-taught scientist."
Luo Chao nodded. In this day and age, college students with their own ideas and opinions are becoming rarer. It appears only top students from first-class schools like Hua Dan University still possess such qualities.
Regardless, even though Luo Chao never attended university, he still admired college students who had independent thoughts and strong opinions.
In Huaxia nowadays, most college students rely play gas and date, barely learning anything significant, acting more like young adults in society than students.
They indulge in shady practices like campus loans and nude loans, wanting to spend without earning money properly, ultimately burdening their unfortunate parents with their financial sses!
"Miss Tang, so after that student graduated, you had him join your lab to help with research?" Luo Chao asked along the conversation's flow.
"Correct, I offered him an intern salary of fifty thousand yuan a month," Tang Tianyi said plainly.
"What the heck." Luo Chao nearly spewed blood upon hearing that.
An inexperienced college graduate earning fifty thousand a month during an internship seed excessively generous!
Even though he's a top student from Hua Dan University, he's still a novice without work experience. This salary is over the top!
Now Luo Chao understood why Tang Tianyi ntioned funding shortages—offering such a high salary to an intern shows a total lack of financial managent.
Luo Chao figured Tang Tianyi might have overpaid for research materials, getting scamd by unscrupulous vendors!
Frankly, Luo Chao was starting to regret entrusting such a large sum of money to Tang Tianyi for research funding.
"Ahem." Luo Chao cleared his throat, trying to compose his thoughts, before continuing, "Miss Tang, since you have such a capable assistant, why haven't I seen him since I ca in?"
