Chapter 577 - 9.47 I’m Sorry
The soldier and Li Zhu separated midway. The former rushed to the bathroom to lead Lu Yizhou away while Li Zhu made a beeline to Zhao Bolin’s office. Because Lu Yizhou had just come out, the door was not locked, much to Li Zhu’s relief.
As Professor Zhao’s direct student, Li Zhu had actually entered this office countless times. But every single time, he could only stare at the side door leading to the laboratory in curiosity. However, it would be different today!
It seemed like the Goddess of Luck was siding with him because as soon as Li Zhu entered, he saw a familiar brass key on the table right in front of him! Heart leaping to his throat, Li Zhu snatched the key and held it with sweaty hands as though it was a life-saving item. The smoke bomb stung his eyes and his heart was beating so fast that he felt faintly nauseous. His hands shook so badly that he could not insert the key properly into the hole despite trying a few times.
Calm down, Li Zhu! He closed his eyes and slapped himself a few times. It was not like he was doing something wrong! This was the precious time everyone bought for him. He had to make use of the fifteen minutes’ time as best as he could! Steeling himself, Li Zhu finally pushed the key in and turned.
The door issued a click and swung open.
The sharp smell of disinfectant rushed to his nose. However, due to the tension and the fact that his nose was covered by a thick cloth, Li Zhu neglected it. He bypassed the corner of the room where a few guinea pigs were held and sprinted toward the computer which was on standby. He hastily grabbed the mouse and— password! Of course, a person like Zhao Bolin would definitely put a password on his private computer!
Sweat rolled down Li Zhu’s forehead as he stared at the screen blankly.
W–What was Zhao Bolin’s password?!
Li Zhu was indeed Zhao Bolin’s closest student. He tried to enter Zhao Bolin’s birthday, the anniversary in which he received his private laboratory... but it was futile! The words ’password incorrect’ and ’one more attempt remaining’ were reflected on his reddened eyes. Every second Li Zhu wasted was twisting on his gut and he almost collapsed due to the tension. Despair leaked into his eyes. Was he destined to fail here? But... But he had not even managed to enter Zhao Bolin’s computer yet!
When he thought of the solemn promise he had made to Yang Tengfei, assuring that he would definitely do his mission well, Li Zhu was so anxious that he almost burst out in tears! He did not want to disappoint Commander Yang! Definitely not!
Perhaps, the power of love was truly potent because amid the perilous situation, Li Zhu suddenly recalled that Zhao Bolin had always recorded his experiments in a notebook! Just now, before he entered the laboratory, he had seen a few notebooks on top of the table. Hope reignited in Li Zhu’s heart and he sprinted outside.
