Chapter 421: Steam Explosion
Standing in the courtyard, Xiao Ming looked towards Bowen Academy and waited for a while, but no smoke appeared.
He thought to himself, this must not be an explosion in the chemistry academy, because after a chemical explosion there would usually be a plume of smoke.
But whatever it was, he had to go check it out—if there were casualties, it would be a big problem. With that in mind, he immediately had someone prepare horses to rush to Bowen Academy.
“What happened?”
As soon as he arrived at Bowen Academy, Xiao Ming ran straight towards the crowded area.
“Your Highness!” Seeing Xiao Ming, the gathered students immediately started talking all at once.
“The physics academy’s laboratory exploded. Lin Wentao and five students were scalded by hot water.”
“The physics students said they were doing a steam experiment, but the boiler exploded unexpectedly.”
“…”
On the way here, Xiao Ming had already guessed the cause, because at the last meeting, Lin Wentao had given him a report listing the steam engine as the top priority. The students’ words confirmed his guess.
“Where are they?” Xiao Ming asked anxiously. These were all key technical members.
One participant in the experiment said, “Your Highness, rest assured. Their injuries are not severe, they were only splashed by hot water. Right now, they are all at Medic Sun’s clinic.”
