Chapter 66 The Sixty-sixth Little Tail

Research Laboratory.

The night poured in from the glass window. Bai Hengyun sat at the long table in the rest area, turning a black fountain pen in her hand, occasionally writing and drawing on a stack of white paper. Few people could understand the messy formulas and data.

With a "click", the pen fell on the table. She came to her senses and heard the sound of the wheelchair rubbing against the ground. She looked back and smiled, "You are here too?"

"Hmm." Ling Dingnan maneuvered the wheelchair to the table. Seeing Bai Hengyun holding the black handle of the coffee pot, she wanted to pour the last bit of coffee into the cup, he stretched out his hand to stop her.

"Have you forgotten about the last time you fainted in the lab due to gastric bleeding?"

Bai Hengyun paused, put the coffee pot back in place, and compromised, "Okay, I'll listen to Professor Ling."

Ling Dingnan laughed at her, "You just don't learn from your mistakes."

"Just remember it for me." Bai Hengyun also laughed, "Come to think of it, your son's injury has healed, he can jump around, but you still can't leave the wheelchair."

Ling Dingnan knew that if Bai Hengyun didn't finish the remaining coffee, she would be anxious, so he simply poured it out and drank it himself in two gulps. "It tastes good." He put down the coffee cup, "It really is. But I don't know who that kid takes after, he's as strong as a bull."

At this moment, a muffled "boom" was heard, and the window glass shook. Bai Hengyun tilted her ear and listened for a while, "It sounds good, Professor Lu and Professor Lei are really good at making weapons."

A slightly old voice came from the side, "Are you praising me behind my back?"

Bai Hengyun and Ling Dingnan looked towards the door at the same time, and saw Lu Ande and Lei Bangyu walked in. The long white lab coats on both of them were buttoned neatly without a wrinkle.

Bai Hengyun greeted them with a smile, "You two haven't slept yet?"

"You two haven't slept either." Lu Ande waved his hand and tapped his head, which had little hair left, "How can I sleep? It's a mess outside." He stood by the window with his hands behind his back, his body slightly hunched, and looked out, sighing, "Don't you think these people have good food? Don't they drink water? They have to fight all day long without stopping."

Ling Dingnan and Bai Hengyun's smiles also faded.

Lu Ande walked and sat opposite Bai Hengyun, sighing deeply, "It may be a bit contradictory to say, but although I am a weapons researcher and have produced countless bombs and machines, from my heart, all weapons should be used for protection and deterrence, not to start wars and hurt people's lives."

Lei Bangyu, who has always been taciturn, just nodded in agreement.

Bai Hengyun hummed, "Perhaps everyone thinks they have sufficient reasons, and they all have things they want to protect or want to get." As she spoke, she shook the empty coffee cup in her hand. The cold white light above her head made her look less peaceful and approachable than usual. "Humans are a very peculiar species."

Lu Ande couldn't agree more. "Millions of years of human history are millions of years of war history. Whether it is famine or plague, or prosperity, war is always unavoidable. Humans always have various reasons to go to war."

Ling Dingnan put his hands on the armrests of the wheelchair, and the top button his white shirt was buttoned meticulously, and he continued, "Yes, at that time, the environment deteriorated, and people fought for survival resources to the point of bloodshed. Nuclear weapons were almost released, and I don't know how many people died. After the Noah system came out, some people began to dream of controlling the Noah world and eternal life."
