Zhang Jianbai smiled bitterly, "It's not that easy. People like us can't just leave whenever we want."
"Child, there are many things in life that are beyond your control."
"But I will give it a try. I don't know for sure if it works."
Jiang Li nodded, "That's right, if you don't try, who knows what the result will be."
"Yes, drink!"
Six people were eating and drinking at a table, chatting about all sorts of things.
By the end of the drinking, everyone was a little drunk.
Jiang Li shook his dizzy head and said, "The wine is gone. We should go back and rest."
"Zhou Zheng, you take the director back, Uncle Wang, you can stay with Uncle Lei."
"Li Na, let's go."
Li Na didn't drink any alcohol and was considered the most sober person here.
Seeing that they had finally dispersed, he yawned and said, "Finally I've finished drinking. I was about to fall asleep."
"Teacher, let me hold you up, don't fall."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm not drunk. I'm just a little tipsy."
"You don't know this feeling, it's wonderful."
"Sure enough, drinking some wine makes me feel good."
Li Na was helpless. "It's okay to drink occasionally, but we girls should drink less."
"I don't drink alcohol. I just took a sip and I'm still a little uncomfortable with it."
"Let's go back and have a good sleep tonight, and continue our morning exercises tomorrow morning."
Jiang Li nodded, "Okay, go back to sleep."
Zhou Zheng can drink quite well, and even though he is a little dizzy now, he is not to the point where he cannot go home.
I supported the staggering director as he walked towards the dormitory, and we almost fell down several times.
Fortunately, the person was finally sent back safely, and Zhou Zheng finally felt relieved.
At the moment when Jiang Li and Li Na were going upstairs, a figure in the corner quietly left without anyone noticing.
It was a dark and windy night, and everyone in the dormitory was in a deep sleep.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded outside.
Jiang Li jumped up, put on his clothes quickly and ran out.
Seeing that many people had already come out of the corridor, she knocked directly on Li Na's door.
"Li Na, wake up, something happened, don't sleep anymore."
As she finished her words, Li Na's door opened.
"Teacher, what's going on? What happened in the middle of the night?"
Jiang Li shook his head. "You know, let's go out and take a look. Let's go."
Li Na took the cotton jacket and said as she locked the door, "Let's go."
Liang Qiu hadn't woken up yet, and was suddenly woken up, which made him very annoyed.
When he saw the fire outside, he cursed, "Which lab is on fire? What bad luck!"
Jiang Li heard this as soon as he came downstairs, and asked in confusion: "Senior Liang, how do you know that the laboratory is on fire?"
When Liang Qiu saw that it was Jiang Li, he pouted and said, "Our laboratories are all in the same direction. Look at the thick smoke over there. It's obvious that the laboratory is on fire."
"Let's go, put out the fire."
After hearing this, Jiang Li looked up and found that it was indeed the direction of their laboratory.
Suddenly, her right eyelid started twitching and she felt like something she didn't want to happen had happened.
Zhang Jianbai was also mostly sober at this time. Looking at the fire, he cursed: "How could there be a sudden fire in the middle of winter?"
"Where are the people who patrol at night? Where did they go?"
"Put out the fire, quickly!"
Everyone in the research institute rushed over with buckets of water because of the fire.
Fortunately, the fire was discovered in time and there was no strong wind that night, so the fire was quickly extinguished.
However, when Jiang Li saw that his own laboratory and the laboratory next door were burned beyond recognition, he felt a surge of anger that he had no place to vent.
She walked up to Zhang Jianbai angrily and said, "Director, this fire is very strange. I suspect it was man-made."
"There are no flammable items in my laboratory. It is impossible for the fire to burn so fiercely."
"There's nothing flammable even in the lab next door, so how could there be such a big fire in the middle of winter?"
"The most important thing is that all the experiments we had worked so hard to produce were destroyed."
"If someone didn't do it on purpose, I'll tear my head off and let you kick it like a ball."
Zhou Zheng and Li Na also nodded and said, "That's right. We just finished the first phase of the product yesterday, and it caught fire at night. How could it be such a coincidence?"
"Director, look at our materials, they are all destroyed. This is all money."
The experimental subjects were destroyed, the laboratory was burned, and the data turned to ashes. Li Na and Zhou Zheng's hearts were bleeding with pain.
This is the result of more than a month of their work.
Zhang Jianbai frowned, "Hearing what you said, it seems like there is indeed something fishy going on."
"Well, let's split up and look for any clues."
"If it is really man-made, this person must be caught, otherwise today's fire will burn again in the future."
When everyone heard this, they were horrified at the thought that there were such vicious people around them.
They are all engaged in scientific research, and they know better than anyone how important data, materials and results are.
Although their laboratory didn't burn down today, there's no guarantee that they will be the ones to burn down next time.
Li Miao is a chemist. After taking a walk around the fire scene, he found something wrong.
She reached out and picked up some ashes and smelled them, and thought to herself that it was indeed the case.
Seeing Li Miao's actions, Jiang Li also picked up the ashes and smelled them, and soon found the clue.
After everyone had observed it, Zhang Jianbai asked, "How is it, did you find anything?"
Seeing that no one came forward first, Jiang Li had to speak first: "I found traces of engine oil. Someone had poured engine oil on my lab."
"And the reason why this fire is so big is because of this reason."
Hearing the word "engine oil", Zhang Jianbai was puzzled: "How could it be engine oil? This thing is strictly controlled in the institute. Where did so much engine oil come from?"
Jiang Li sighed, "Director, you should ask the person who has the oil to check and see if it's lost."
"No one here can get out. This thing must be the supplies in the institute."
"Such a big battle will definitely leave traces."
Zhang Jianbai heard this and said, "You are right. Now everyone should go back and check the supplies they have to see if anything is missing."
"And everyone who is in the lab tonight, please go register with my assistant."
"As for the rest of the people, please register separately."
"I just don't believe this person can do it perfectly."
He has been here for more than ten years, and he knew at a glance that the fire was aimed at Jiang Li and the others.
The person who is so brave and familiar with the terrain and able to find the engine oil must be an old man.
After hearing what the director said, everyone didn't waste any time and went straight to their own laboratories for examination.
Jiang Li waited for everyone to leave the house, thought for a while, and then said to the director: "Uncle Zhang, I have only offended Comrade Zhang since I came here. Do you think it could be her?"
