The next day, Su Yuhe arrived at the laboratory and Xia Hongju immediately came to greet her:

"How is it, is there any result?"

Su Yuhe glanced at Xia Hongju in surprise: "I haven't looked for Zhao Xiyuan yet, why are you in the lab so early today?"

"I can't sleep at night, and when I do fall asleep I wake up early. Maybe it's because I'm worried about something."

Xia Hongju sighed: "If something goes wrong with our little animals, what will happen to the lab report?"

Su Yuhe: "Just do what needs to be done. The experiment has reached its final stage. If we find out anything, we can write down the final results. Teacher Xue shouldn't fail us."

"This is the last job before the New Year. I don't know who is so mean. They are deliberately trying to make things difficult for me."

Deng Shiming entered the lab, saw Su Yuhe and the others, greeted them, and asked, "Have you finished your reports?"

He raised mice because he thought rabbits were too delicate and mice were easier to kill.

He asked Xia Hongju how her writing was: "I'm a mouse like you, let's see if we can have some exchanges."

"What are you talking about?" Xia Hongju pouted. "My mouse is dead!"

"Ah? How come?" Deng Shiming frowned. "Let me check mine first."

Deng Shiming's mice were all normal and there was no problem. He breathed a sigh of relief and asked Xia Hongju what went wrong.

Xia Hongju: "Not yet—"

Su Yuhe called Xia Hongju and gave her a wink, but the result was not out yet.

They themselves suspected that Zhang Yu was okay.

What if I tell others but end up having no evidence and get taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives?

Xia Hongju quickly changed her words: "I don't know, we'll know when there's a result."

Deng Shiming didn't ask any more questions and just focused on doing his own thing.

Although they were in the same group as Su Yuhe and the others, Deng Shiming and Su Yuhe rarely interacted with each other.

In addition to the reason of keeping distance between men and women, another reason is that Deng Shiming knew that Su Yuhe had good grades and was not a talkative person, so he classified Su Yuhe as a cold and aloof person.

Naturally, I wouldn't talk to Su Yuhe much.

In the afternoon, Su Yuhe went to find Zhao Xiyuan.

Zhao Xiyuan: "I was just about to look for you, and the results came out."

"How about it?"

Zhao Xiyuan showed Su Yuhe a report: "Two pieces of bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Su Yuhe paused: "What difference does it make if they're all bad news? Just say whatever you want. I should be able to handle it."

Zhao Xiyuan smiled, then turned serious again: "The rabbit is gone this morning."

Su Yuhe's expression was complicated, a feeling that was both expected and unexpected: "The second bad news."

"Excessive levels of NaCl were detected in both rabbits and mice."

Su Yuhe glanced at the report: "Salt?"

Zhao Xiyuan nodded. "The mice and rabbits that have been used in the experiment are very sensitive. They can easily die if they ingest too much sodium chloride."

Su Yuhe was very sure that she and Xia Hongju had never fed the experimental subjects anything high in salt.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you."

"Why are you being polite?" Zhao Xiyuan glanced at the dead animal in the cage. "What are you going to do with it? Take it back, or leave it here so I can help you deal with it later."

Zhao Xiyuan often conducts experiments and inevitably has to deal with these animal corpses. For him, this is a convenient thing to do.

Su Yuhe shook her head: "I'll take it back. You go ahead and do your work. When I'm done, I'll treat you to a meal."

Su Yuhe carried the two animal corpses back.

Xia Hongju almost cried when she saw it: "How come yours is gone too!"

Su Yuhe sighed: "I can guess it. Rabbit was not very energetic yesterday."

Xia Hongju gnashed her teeth, "What did Zhao Xiyuan say? Was it that bitch who did it?"

"It was found that it was caused by an overdose of sodium chloride."

Xia Hongju's reaction was the same as Su Yuhe's: "We didn't feed her sodium chloride either. It must have been her! She hasn't said a word in the dormitory these past few days. I guess she feels guilty!"

She glanced at the mouse that had died unjustly and said, "I'll go find her!"

Su Yuhe grabbed Xia Hongju and said, "What can you get out of arguing with her? All we know now is that it was sodium chloride poisoning, and there's no evidence to prove that she was the one who fed him."

"So what should we do?"

Su Yuhe thought for a moment and said, "I have a solution."

Xia Hongju: "What method?"

…

Zhang Yu finished writing the report and didn't need to go to the hospital, so he had half a day to rest.

She took Luo Feng out for a walk, saying that she had been in the capital for so long but had never had a good time. It was snowing now, so she planned to go and see the Forbidden City in the snow to see if it was as beautiful as the legend said.

The two of them ate a bowl of臊子面 outside before coming back.

As soon as I opened the dormitory door, I saw Su Yuhe sitting beside Xia Hongju's bed.

Zhang Yu's whole body stiffened for a moment, then he pretended nothing had happened and walked in, talking to Luo Feng as if he didn't see Su Yuhe.

When Luo Feng saw Su Yuhe, due to Zhang Yu's presence, he just nodded at Su Yuhe.

Zhang Yu seemed to be afraid that Luo Feng would go and talk to Su Yuhe, so she deliberately pulled Luo Feng aside to talk, wanting to leave Su Yuhe sitting there alone.

But Su Yuhe looked at the book and had no reaction to Zhang Yu's "isolation".

Zhang Yu was unhappy again, thinking that Su Yuhe was too arrogant!

She deliberately raised her voice and said, "Who would bring someone into the dormitory without permission? And leave them alone in a room? What if something goes missing? Who should I contact?"

Xia Hongju brought Su Yuhe back to the dormitory and happened to want to go to the toilet. She always trusted Su Yuhe, so she took some paper to the toilet. As soon as she came back, she heard Zhang Yu being sarcastic again.

She pushed the door open louder. "Zhang Yu! How can you be so mean? What can you possibly miss?"

Zhang Yu didn't respond to Xia Hongju and went to bed in his slippers.

Xia Hongju walked to Zhang Yu's bedside in two or three steps: "Why are you pretending? You dare not admit it?"

Su Yuhe was afraid that Xia Hongju would act impulsively, so she quickly came over and held her back.

Zhang Yu often observed Su Yuhe whenever he had time, and found that Su Yuhe had that indifferent attitude.

Now it seems that he has no intention of pursuing the matter.

Zhang Yu immediately regained his confidence: "What do you mean by daring to say it but not admitting it? I ignored you because I didn't want to argue with you and force me to write a self-criticism later!"

When this was mentioned, Xia Hongju couldn't help herself: "Who is this all because of? It's all you who started it. You're such a bitch, you're such a bitch! You're such a bitch! I'm killing you!"

Later, Xia Hongju spoke directly in dialect.

Zhang Yu didn't understand, but she knew it was definitely not something nice, so she started cursing in her native dialect.

Probably because the last fight had reached the teacher, this time they just moved their mouths and gestured a few times with their hands, without even touching each other.

Su Yuhe was overwhelmed by their noise.

"Enough!" Su Yuhe rarely spoke loudly, but this time when she spoke in a low voice, she miraculously stopped the two people who were arguing.
