Chapter 106 She Invited Me to Dinner
With the resource competition as an excuse.
Scarlett's imprisonment is no longer her own business.
It’s about the six big families behind her.
The people in the 403 Research Institute belong to the old-school regime, while the six major families behind Scarlett belong to the new-school regime.
The alternation of the old and the new also indicates that this case is not simple.
Ashley was busy with experiments, but he also informed his family.
His family members didn't want him to get divorced in the first place, but when they saw him speaking up for Scarlett, they understood the situation and took action one after another.
The heated discussions on Star Network continued, with Kristen's name topping the trending search list, followed by the names of seven others.
Like Christine, they all came from the underground world. After being admitted to the Imperial City, they joined the 403 Research Institute. A few years later, they resigned from the institute and disappeared from the public eye.
More and more speculations are emerging on StarNet.
What they said about Scarlett in the past is what they are saying about the 403 Institute now.
kill!
Retrieve memory.
Seek achievement.
Knock the bones and suck the marrow.
A series of comments like these have been circulating on StarNet, sending chills down the spine of anyone who reads them.
Especially the civilians underground.
Their lifelong ambition is to enter the imperial city, escape from their commoner status and realize their ideals.
What lies before them now is that entering the imperial city not only fails to realize their ideals and cross class barriers, but instead becomes a "meal" for those in high positions.
How could they not be chilled?
Could it be that the examination system created by Your Majesty was originally intended to better oppress the common people?
Catherine's good reputation for hard work and dedication over the past 20 years was also severely damaged by this condemnation.
She is no longer a good emperor who serves the country and the people.
She became the biggest executioner of the light of the common people.
The news reached the imperial court.
Catherine was coughing for nearly a minute, and there was a pool of blood on her palm.
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, smiled, and said, "Scarlett's incident has caused quite a stir. I'm afraid the Federation will call and inquire about it soon."
She said this, but her eyes were full of relief.
With the six major families taking action, she doesn't have to worry about Scarlett.
Her original choice was not wrong.
Katrina brings medicine.
She shook her head, pushed them aside, and then grabbed Katrina's wrist. She spoke breathlessly, "Give the order to thoroughly investigate the 403 Research Institute. They've already taken action, so as a mother, I naturally have to support my child."
Katrina felt Catherine's hand about to give out, so she quickly supported it, nodding repeatedly, tears welling in her eyes. "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll give the order right away. Your Highness is now protected by the six major families, so you don't have to worry about it. Rest well and recuperate. Later, I will arrange for Wen Qi to come to the imperial court to treat Your Majesty. Your Majesty has postponed it three times, and this time there must be no more delays!"
Catherine saw that Katrina's eyes were determined and had a rare stern look.
She also knew that her body had indeed reached its limit. If she didn't get treatment, the damage would accelerate, and she might not be able to last for two years. She smiled and said, "Okay, everything is up to you."
…
…
403 Research Institute.
There was a lot of commotion outside.
However, there is harmony within the institute, and all procedures are proceeding normally without any impact.
Laboratory No. 27.
Ashley hasn't left the lab for almost three days.
It's early morning now.
All the females in the laboratory went back to rest.
He stayed here alone to continue his experiments.
If you feel sleepy, take a nap, but not too long, ten minutes is enough.
Drink nutritional supplements when you are hungry.
The experiment in his hand was actually almost done, and there was only one point left. If he figured it out, he would be able to develop another advanced sedative. However, that point had always been Christine's responsibility, and it was very complicated. He took out Christine's research notes and repeated the experiment more than a hundred times, but he still couldn't get the original result.
"Why, why is it like this? Why can't I find the answer? Am I useless? Scarlett gave me the most important thing, so why can't I research the soothing agent? I'm such a loser! Such a loser! What should I do? How is Scarlett now?"
"Scarlett..."
Ashley sat in the chair, grabbing her hair in pain.
He has been concentrating on the laboratory and has no idea of the development of the situation outside.
Scarlett's words kept echoing in his mind.
Scarlett placed all her hopes on him.
He must research it out!
Ashley was depressed for a few seconds, but quickly cheered up, stood up again, walked to the laboratory table, took out the reagents, and continued the experiment.
"bite……"
The laboratory door was opened.
He heard the sound, but had no time to pay attention. He kept staring at the lavender reagent in front of him and carefully poured it into the measuring cylinder.
"Oh my god, isn't this ancient Ming grass!"
An excited female voice suddenly rang out, startling Ashley. His hands trembled and he almost lost his grip on the measuring cylinder.
"You, you, you..." Ashley turned around and saw Caroline with a look of surprise.
Caroline hasn't come to the lab these days.
No one knew where she went.
He doesn't care either.
It's just a bit scary that he suddenly came back in the middle of the night.
Caroline raised an eyebrow at him, "Why? You're surprised to see me."
Ashley shook her head, "Not surprising."
We are all from the laboratory, how could there be an accident? It was just too sudden.
He took a few steps to the side, creating some distance.
"Look how petty you are. You run away as soon as I get close to you. If someone doesn't know me, they would think I am going to eat you." Caroline teased with a smile.
Ashley paused and said, "Scarlett doesn't like me getting too close to the opposite sex."
Caroline became playful when she heard this and moved closer to Ashley. "She's in the courtroom now, she won't know."
Ashley ran further away, "It's her business if she doesn't know, but it's my business if I do it or not."
"Yo."
Caroline crossed her arms and said, "I didn't realize you were so loyal. I remember a few months ago, you stormed to the Royal Court and insisted on divorcing Scarlett. What? You don't want a divorce now?"
Ashley was reluctant to discuss the matter with outsiders.
He frowned, turned his back to Caroline, and continued with his experiment.
He didn't want to waste any time.
Caroline had been teasing Ashley, but when he didn't respond, she lost interest. She went to the lounge, changed into her lab coat, put on her goggles, and returned to the lab table. "You have something like Ancient Singing Grass, but you can't make a high-level soothing agent. That shows how useless you are."
"Now, I really admire Christine. How did she make the soothing potion in the first place?"
"She has a really good brain. No wonder my aunt admires her so much."
When Ashley heard the name "Kristen", her hand movements paused and she slowly turned her head.
Caroline picked up the reagent and said, "I know what you want to say. Once I make the advanced pacifying agent, I will go to the imperial court to apologize."
When she said that, Ashley didn't know what to say. He looked at her in confusion, "You..."
Caroline said, "I don't really want to borrow other people's things, but I have no choice right now. If I don't use it now, I won't be able to use it in the future. Don't you want to save Scarlett? I'll help you."
Caroline's optical computer has two sets of chips, one for herself and one for Christine.
She never used Christine's chip.
As a royal noble, she also has her own pride. If her aunt had not forcibly implanted it in her mind, she would never have used such a dirty method in her life.
She has always believed that with her own strength, she can also develop advanced soothing agents.
pity.
She doesn't have much time left.
Once this matter is exposed, everyone in the 403 Institute will be convicted.
In that case, let's do you a favor.
Maybe we can even buy a chance for the 403 Institute to survive.
Ashley asked confusedly, "Why?"
The question has two meanings.
Caroline only gave a superficial answer, "Scarlett invited me to dinner."
