Chapter 860 Extra 26: Abusing the Scum, Norton Deceives Sinai, and Their Cohabitation Begins
Her voice wasn't quiet.
When he said the last sentence, he clearly raised his voice on purpose.
People passing by outside the office couldn't help but stop and look over.
Sinai's presence in the entire experimental base was both very high and very low.
Because she only cares about work on weekdays, she might go to the cafeteria at most, and she won't go out shopping or to bars on weekends.
Others who came to see her because of her reputation could only come to her office in the basement.
Having been around Sally for a long time, Anne couldn't stand Sinai's pretentious and aloof attitude.
Despite being only twenty-seven years old, her lifestyle is even healthier than that of sixty-year-old researchers.
Who is this for?
"Anne!" Charlotte's expression turned cold instantly. "What nonsense are you spouting now? What, you can't even make someone like you, so you resort to such malicious speculation about others?"
She learned a lot of new knowledge from Sinai and truly admired Sinai's extensive knowledge.
Charlotte was certain that Sinai knew more than any professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Norton University.
“I wasn’t talking to you,” Anne sneered. “You can ask your teacher. I saw her with my own eyes accept Alfonso’s date invitation and then go grocery shopping and eat with another man, and she was laughing quite happily.”
"What do you have to say? Is this all fake? There are probably more than two men involved, aren't there?"
She never believed that Sinai, at such a young age, could complete such an important experiment all by herself.
Now there is concrete evidence.
Charlotte was furious: "Anne, you—"
Before she could finish speaking, Sinai moved.
"Whoosh!"
Less than two seconds later, a cold metal object was pressed against her forehead.
Anne's body suddenly stiffened, cold sweat broke out instantly, and she shuddered.
Having studied mechanics as well, she naturally knew what Sinai had taken out.
Annie's eyes widened in disbelief.
In such an important place as the experimental base, Sinai dared to carry a gun with him.
Moreover, they did it so openly and honestly.
Crazy?
Sinai's voice was calm, and she even chuckled: "What did I say? Help you see blood?"
Everyone around was astonished to see Sinai calmly holding up his gun.
Charlotte was also startled and quickly stepped forward: "Teacher, calm down, it's not worth it."
Weapons are prohibited at the experimental base because Hervin and some other senior researchers are of high value.
Even with the combined support of the Laurent family and the Venus Group, there are still people internationally who want them dead.
If someone is carrying a gun, those with serious offenses may even be sent to an international prison by the IBI.
"Come on, shoot me here!" After her initial shock, Annie realized this too and laughed. "Do you dare to shoot? If you dare, then hurry up and shoot, huh?!"
Sinai's eyelashes drooped, her expression indifferent.
"Who are you trying to scare with just a fake gun?" Anne said sarcastically. "Or are you feeling guilty and thinking—"
Her words abruptly stopped.
"Smack!"
The sound that cut off her voice was the sound of the trigger being pulled.
Anne let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground with a thud, her face deathly pale and her lips bloodless.
An unpleasant odor wafted out, causing those around to involuntarily take a step back, their expressions filled with disgust.
Annie was so frightened that she lost control of her bladder and bowels.
Sinai holstered his gun, still calmly saying, "You can try next time."
"..."
The surroundings were completely silent.
Anne cautiously raised her head and met Sinai's icy blue eyes, as if she could still feel the burning sensation that had just passed by.
It's not a fake gun, it's absolutely real!
Sinai really dared to kill her!
Anne finally couldn't contain her fear and screamed a few more times. She ran out, scrambling and crawling on all fours.
Sinai dialed the cleaning team's number: "Yes, I need to clean this up. Please do it as soon as possible. Thank you."
"Yes, someone brought the dog in, and it urinates and defecates anywhere."
After she finished speaking, she placed the silver pistol next to the computer.
Another "smack" sounded, sending a chill down the spines of the onlookers.
Sinai himself has already started a new round of work, so calmly that it was as if he had just been drinking a cup of tea.
“Professor Sinai.” Charlotte barely managed to come to her senses. “Don’t take what Annie said to heart. She’s just a gossip. She’s been in the base for two years and is still just an assistant. I don’t know what she’s so arrogant about all day long.”
"Yes, I know." Sinai thought for a moment. "You know her?"
“I guess we know each other,” Charlotte said. “Our school eliminates a lot of students every year. If they don’t meet the annual assessment standards, they will be downgraded. If they are downgraded to D level, they will be automatically expelled.”
"She didn't even pass the entrance exam, but she brags every day about how she went to Norton University."
Charlotte scoffed.
If Anne had actually gotten into Norton University, given her level of intelligence, she would have had all her memories of Norton erased and been sent back to her home country long ago.
Sinai then realized that someone's name was truly ubiquitous to her.
She paused, then looked away: "When does your principal's class start?"
“It’s only December now.” Charlotte counted on her fingers. “The second semester starts in March, and he only teaches one class a week.”
Sinai remained silent for a moment.
Three months left.
If he doesn't leave, can't she at least hide?
At worst, she can stay in the office for three months and not leave.
Charlotte asked curiously, "Teacher, would you like to audit our classes? I think you could apply for a professorship at our school."
“No.” Sinai paused, those dark green eyes flashing through her mind, and her expression instantly turned expressionless. “I don’t want to work for capitalists who only know how to suck blood.”
Charlotte: "???"
Their principal, a bloodsucking capitalist?
As the two were chatting, suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps sounded.
Within seconds, the inspectors surrounded Sinai's office.
Sinai looked up, her eyes narrowing.
Anne was disheveled, hadn't changed her clothes, and was still trembling.
“She’s carrying a gun!” Anne pointed at Sinai. “She doesn’t have a gun license! And she’s not with the inspection team! I suspect she’s an undercover agent sent by another faction to assassinate the professor and the others!”
Her teeth were chattering as she spoke.
Sinai's gun-wielding technique was incredibly skilled.
If you haven't had specialized training, where would you get these skills?
The inspector general stepped forward and gestured for his team members to pick up the silver pistol on the table: "May we inspect it?"
Although it is a polite imperative sentence, it is clearly a forceful demand.
Sinai nodded: "Please go ahead."
Charlotte was getting nervous.
She studied mechanical engineering and can distinguish between real and fake guns.
Judging from the quality alone, this silver pistol couldn't possibly be fake.
Anne gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Sinai, as if to say, "You're finished."
Sinai yawned, slowly took out the coffee canister, and began to brew coffee.
Several inspection team members admired her attitude.
Ten minutes later, the inspection team completed their inspection and submitted the results.
“Miss Anne, this is a replica gun, it has no lethality.” The inspector general frowned, his gaze towards Anne turning cold. “Our time is precious, please don’t spread false information because of personal grudges.”
Charlotte was taken aback.
A fake gun?
"That's a real gun!" Annie was on the verge of collapse. "It's a real gun, Captain, you have to believe me!"
Sinai blinked, took a sip of coffee, and smiled: "Be careful on the road."
"Captain, look, she's threatening me!" Annie was even more distraught. "You have to protect me, you absolutely have to protect me!"
“Madam, you don’t seem to be in good spirits.” The inspector’s brow furrowed even more. “If it’s due to excessive stress from the experiment, I suggest you see a psychologist.”
Anne finally broke down completely: "I told you, she wanted to kill me, why didn't you believe me?!"
The inspector captain shook his head: "Miss Sinai, I apologize for disturbing you."
He had two team members take Annie out and close the door.
Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, and only after the inspection team left did she turn around and ask, "Teacher, was it really a toy gun?"
“You can play with it, but I usually use it for self-defense.” Sinai raised her hand again, casually aiming at an abandoned iron box.
The trigger was pulled, and a laser beam shot out.
The iron box melted instantly.
In a single second, not even ashes remained.
Charlotte: "..."
Holy crap?
This is considered to have no lethality whatsoever?
How did the inspection team conduct their checks?
“Xiaxia, please deliver this letter to Group A for me,” Sinai said. “Inside are two tickets to the science fair, dated December 29th. Ask Mr. Alfonso if he has time to go.”
Hearing this, Charlotte was excited: "Okay, I'll go right away. Is there anything else you need to bring?"
Sinai nodded: "That's all."
She asked Alfonso out, partly to give it a try, and partly to repay the favor he had done for treating her to dinner and a concert last time.
**
Group A side.
After Charlotte finished delivering the letter and left, a young man clapped his hands and said, "Team leader, amazing, really amazing, I didn't expect that."
"It's too early to say we've caught up," Alfonso shook his head. "She treats me no differently than anyone else."
“But at least she accepted your invitation,” the young man said. “She’s inviting you back now, so she must treat you differently from others.”
"The last date was quite pleasant." Alfonso thought for a moment, "It's just that her cousin is very strict. He actually required her to be home before eight o'clock. I had originally planned other activities afterward."
"Cousin?" The young man was also quite puzzled. "What about her other family members? Why is it her cousin's place to take care of her?"
Alfonso shook his head again, then sighed, "I didn't get anything out of him."
The surname Leinger doesn't exist in O continent.
Where did Sinai come from?
“Let’s not talk about that.” The young man laughed. “Just yesterday, I heard from Professor Herwin’s people that the first researcher has returned, and the project is expected to be successful within five years at the shortest possible time.”
Every experiment has a first researcher's account.
The team members were also quite curious about who this first researcher, who had been chosen a long time ago, was.
"Where is it?" Alfonso asked, intrigued. "Didn't you ask?"
“How could I dare ask about such confidential matters?” The young man shook his head. “We can only wait until the project is over and the list of researchers is released.”
**
At 5:30, Sinai finished a round of work.
She stretched and was just about to invite Charlotte out for dinner when a message came in first.
[Shameless Old Man]: I'll be waiting for you outside.
Sinai stared at the message.
What is he doing at the experimental base?
Why does he seem so idle?
Then, another message came in.
[Shameless Old Man]: I'll wait for you for three minutes. If you don't come, I'll go in.
Sinai: "..."
She took off her lab coat, packed her things, and left the office.
In December, the outside temperature had already dropped to single digits.
The maple leaves on the trees had not yet all fallen, but the ground was already covered with a carpet of withered yellow leaves.
At this time of day, there are quite a few people entering and leaving the experimental base.
She spotted him immediately.
The man was wearing a black leather jacket and had a cigar between his fingers.
Sinai knew he didn't smoke, but he would light one up every now and then.
I don't know what kind of habit it is.
Norton saw her too. He stubbed out his cigarette and waved to her: "Come here."
Sinai sighed, but still walked over: "What are you doing here?"
"Let's eat," Norton said, crossing his arms. "I'll pick you up and take you home."
“I only go back to the villa on weekends,” Sinai yawned. “I’m fine with eating there, but I don’t need to go back.”
Norton didn't say anything, but suddenly smiled lazily: "Cousin, well done."
Sinai: "?"
He bent down and gently patted her head: "Remember, if anyone bullies you in the future, don't hold back."
Being lenient with the enemy is being cruel to yourself.
He understands this principle very well.
He had been looking after the child for more than half a year, and he couldn't let him be bullied by others.
Unlike other elders, he wouldn't expect his children to be tolerant.
Sinai was taken aback: "You're at the door?"
"Yeah, I came down to find you and just happened to run into the inspection team." Norton said regretfully, "I didn't expect my cousin to handle it herself without me having to."
He straightened up: "So I plan to pick you up from school every day."
Sinai: "..."
This meme is just impossible to get over.
She wrapped her coat tighter around herself and walked beside him.
Norton said casually, "Also, winter is here, the nights are long and the days are short, I suggest you go back to the villa every day."
“It’s too far from the base.” Sinai refused without even thinking. “It would take up too much time on the way.”
"Far?" Norton lifted his eyelids. "Isn't your dear cousin driving you around?"
"..."
Sinai's fist hardened.
But when did he learn to drive?
She remembered that old-fashioned people didn't touch these things.
“And—” he paused, then continued, “I need you to teach me how to shoot. You’re only available at night, so you need to go back to the villa tonight.”
Upon hearing this, Sinai hesitated for a moment: "Do I need someone to teach me how to fire a gun? I can have my guards teach you."
"I'll cook the food and wash the dishes."
"All right."
Norton looked pleased: "Deal."
After Sinai came to her senses: "..."
How could she agree to that shameless old man?
When she returned to the villa, she found that a meal had already been prepared on the table.
Dinner was plentiful, with everything imaginable.
Sinai had to admit that she had once again succumbed to his culinary skills.
He can learn something as difficult as cooking, but he can't shoot a gun?
Sinai, holding the bowl, asked, "Did you deliberately fatten me up?"
"You're overthinking it. Even if you're a cat, I'll still cook for you."
"..."
Sinai's fist hardened.
But considering the delicious and visually appealing dinner, she ultimately decided not to argue with him.
Now, the only one who will bully her is clearly him.
After dinner, Sinai nestled on the sofa and watched TV.
Norton was still in the kitchen.
It's like a wife waiting for her husband to cook.
Sinai was slightly startled and immediately took out her phone to distract herself.
What is she thinking about all day long?
It's not wrong to say that the father cooks for his daughter.
Charlotte: Teacher, why did you leave so soon? I was waiting for you! [crying emoji]
Sinai replied with a cracked emoji.
I was taken back home by an elder in my family; he told me to go home early.
Charlotte: Seriously, teacher? You're twenty-seven years old, and you even have a gun. Are your elders really that old-fashioned and patriarchal?
Charlotte: Teacher, you're in such a bad situation. What if your elders have to come along on your date?
Sinai glanced at the tall, slender figure in the kitchen.
He's quite a traditional, feudal patriarch.
She opened her chat window with Norton, wondering whether she should change his nickname again.
A shameless, feudal patriarch?
Just then, Norton came out carrying a fruit platter, saying, "Oh, by the way, on Christmas Day—"
He paused.
Sinai immediately exited the WeChat interface.
But it was too late; he was already standing behind her and had seen the chat box.
After a few seconds of silence, Norton slowly pulled the phone out of her hand.
Although Sinai had already gripped tightly, her fighting power was no match for the Sage's Chariot.
The phone ended up in Norton's hands.
This time, he clearly saw the note Sinai had given her.
"You shameless old man?" Norton walked up to her, bent down, and looked at her. He smiled, but his gaze was dangerous. "Explain why you insulted me?"
