Reborn in America: I Have an Equipment Slot

bang bang bang-

"Tina, may I come in?"

Irving knocked gently on the door, but to his surprise, there was no response from inside.

Turning his head, Owen exchanged a glance with Ayesha, and immediately turned the doorknob.

Then I saw Tina huddled in the corner, head down, hugging her knees, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Tina, what happened?" Seeing Tina so upset, Owen was surprised for a moment before rushing forward to hug her.

"Tina, Owen and I are both your good friends. If anything happens to you, you can tell us."

Ayesha, who was standing to the side, quickly chimed in.

Hearing their words of comfort, Tina, who had been sobbing incessantly, slowly raised her head.

She didn't say anything, but simply unlocked her phone and showed Owen and Ayesha the chat history.

Professor Smith: Tina, come to my office after class. I'm planning to start a research group soon, and I think the research direction is very suitable for you. You can come and take a look.

Tina: OK! Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Professor!

……

Professor Smith: Tina, what's your decision? If you join this research group, I guarantee I can provide you with a letter of recommendation so you can go to the best medical school for graduate studies after graduation.

Tina: Professor! Give up! I will absolutely not participate in such despicable research!

Professor Smith: Despicable? I advise you to think carefully before answering me. Everything I've done is for the advancement of human medicine!

Professor Smith: To be honest, I don't have many students I like in Miami. You only have two paths now. First, obediently join the research group, and I guarantee you will be able to enter the best medical school in the future and have a bright future. Second, delete those posts and obediently drop out of school, otherwise don't force me to use the power I have!

Professor Smith: I'm only giving you one day to think it over.

"..."

"That Professor Smith is a pervert!"

Ayesha, who was standing to the side, glanced at the chat history and immediately felt a chill run down her spine, getting goosebumps all over her body.

She glanced at Owen. "Aren't you going to say anything?"

Owen felt a chill run down his spine under Ayesha's questioning gaze. He immediately took a deep breath and explained, "This Professor Smith isn't a pervert, he's scum!"

"The top ophthalmology professor in the entire United States? No wonder the American education system has become what it is today..."

Instead of getting angry, Irving laughed and shook his head helplessly.

Judging from the chat logs between Tina and Professor Smith, he is indeed a scumbag.

He first attracted Tina by offering her a chance to join his research group and participate in a high-profile project.

Then he used various forms of fame and fortune to lure Tina into becoming his henchman, making her secretly help him with things like dissecting corpses and conducting experiments with living people's eyeballs.

It's obvious that the reason the other party was interested in Tina was simply because she was one of the top students in her class and also very beautiful.

What could be more appealing than conquering a beautiful woman who is both beautiful and intelligent?

"Owen, what do we do now?" Ayesha suddenly asked.

"I think I heard Tina mention Professor Smith before. He's a top expert in ophthalmology that their university went to great lengths to recruit."

"Now that this has happened, even if Tina reports it, the university will probably be able to suppress the matter, right?"

"That's most likely the case." Irving suppressed his anger, trying to stay rational, and frowned as he pondered.

"F**K! I was really looking forward to university life, but now it seems I'm glad I didn't choose this path..."

Hearing Ayesha say that, Owen was speechless.

So you didn't go to university?

It's clearly because I didn't get into university, okay?

Just as the two were discussing countermeasures, Tina, who had been curled up in the corner crying, slowly raised her head.

Although Owen and Ayesha didn't offer any comfort, Tina felt a sense of security with their presence, and her mood improved somewhat.

"Fine, if it doesn't work out, I'll just drop out of school."

Tina wiped away her tears, then looked at Owen. "Owen, if I drop out of school and can't find a job, could you let me work at a pawn shop?"

"Of course!" Irving nodded immediately, jokingly adding, "Forget employees, you can be the boss's wife if you want!"

Upon hearing this, Tina immediately burst into tears while laughing.

After calming Tina down a bit and sensing that she had calmed down, Owen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, Tina, I just saw in the chat history that you posted a few threads?"

Tina nodded, sighed, and looked at Owen with pitiful eyes, regretting, "That's right. After I left Professor Smith's research group, I couldn't stand him using freshly removed human eyeballs for experiments, so in a fit of anger, I anonymously posted the whole story on a university forum."

"Sigh, that college forum is the Florida College Student Forum, there are quite a few people there."

"Looking back now, I realize I was wrong. I shouldn't have posted those messages... If I hadn't posted those messages, even if I hadn't joined the research group, Professor Smith probably wouldn't have made things difficult for me. I was too impulsive."

"Impulsive? NO! You did the right thing, Tina."

Seeing Tina's weak appearance, Ayesha, standing to the side, immediately spoke up, "Without those posts, you'd probably have been completely taken advantage of by that bastard by now!"

"If you ask me, that post shouldn't have been deleted. You should have reported this to the school, no, not just the school, but the government too, and made this matter as big as possible!"

"it's useless."

Seeing Ayesha getting more and more excited, Tina shook her head and immediately poured cold water on her enthusiasm, "Professor Smith is no ordinary professor. He was recruited by our university with great effort and is one of the top ophthalmology professors in the entire United States."

Moreover, he has just received the title of Florida Distinguished Scholar. If we really report this to the school and the government, they will most likely not take any action and will instead suppress the matter.

I've already made up my mind. Tomorrow I'll delete the post, then apologize to Professor Smith and see if he'll let me off the hook...

"You're too naive, Tina!" Owen interrupted her before she could finish speaking.

"Haven't you seen these chat logs yet? This Professor Smith has clearly done this before. The reason he dares to threaten you so openly is because he has the means to do so..."

"What should I do now?" Tina looked up at Owen with a pitiful expression.

Irving looked up and glanced at the brightly colored "GG" sign outside the window, when a sudden inspiration flashed through his mind.

"I've suddenly had a great idea!"
