I have no regrets about my 2D world!

I have to say that the Fire Moth takes really good care of this research institute. There is no shortage of equipment and the surrounding scenery is also pretty good. Literally, there are birds singing and flowers blooming. It should be specially created to provide researchers with a good rest environment. It's a pity that the researchers don't necessarily care about these.

Moreover, even during breaks, most researchers would probably stay inside to think about problems or something, and there would probably not be many who would come out to wander around. If you want to wait for someone here, you might not be lucky enough to wait for even one person in a whole day.

But his luck has always been good. As soon as he thought about whether someone would come, he immediately received a response.

Feeling that the few sunlight on his body was blocked, Bai opened his eyes and looked forward. A green-haired woman with a gentle smile appeared in front of him at some point.

Bai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a confused look on his face.

"Who are you? What are you here for?"

"Hello, I'm a researcher here. You can call me Mebius. I see you sitting here alone. Do you need any help?" Mebius spoke as gently as possible, trying to find out the situation of this guy first. If it was really what she thought, then today's experimental subject would be in her hands.

"Hello, Ms. Mebius, my name is Bai. Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need any help." Bai waved his hand and rejected Mebius' kindness.

"It's okay. You can tell me if you have anything to say. There is only one research institute nearby. Are you waiting for someone inside? Maybe I can help you call them?" Mebius didn't mind at all. He even sat down next to Bai, squinting his eyes and smiling, waiting for Bai's response.

"Indeed, I'm waiting for the person inside, but there's no need to trouble you, Ms. Mays. I have plenty of time. I can just wait for her to come out on her own."

Seeing Mobius approaching, Bai's eyes were a little subtle. Could it be that Mobius was planning to attack him directly?

"Well, it's a shame I can't help you." Mobius pretended to be sorry, but soon regained his smile. "But I happen to be free, Mr. Bai, would you mind chatting with me?"

"Sure, what do you want to talk about?"

"Well, let's talk about what you do, Mr. Bai. Since you are related to the people in the institute, Mr. Bai should have a good job, right?" Mobius asked tentatively.

The First Research Institute was absolutely worthy of its name. Even though some of the people inside still seemed stupid to her, they were more or less considered geniuses to the outside world. Those who could be related to geniuses were either the same existence or some material connection.

"Work? I don't have a job?"

Mebius' smile froze for a moment. "Then I suppose you have quite a bit of savings, Mr. Bai?"

"That's a little bit, not much, but enough."

For Bai, money in this world can be easily made. Even if he cannot make it directly to prevent the destruction of the market economy, he has dozens of ways to make money quickly. So no matter how much money he has, it is just a number in front of him. It is enough as long as it is enough.

"Then have you ever considered what will happen if you run out of money in the future? If you don't save some now, it will be very troublesome when you need it in a hurry later." Mobius frowned slightly, as if he was really worried about Bai.

"Just think of a way to get more money after you've spent it. What's so worrying about money?" Bai looked at Mebius in surprise, the fact that someone would worry about money almost written on his face.

The corners of Mebius' mouth twitched slightly, and he kept comforting himself in his heart.

With Mei's guarantee, she now has no shortage of funds in any aspect and can be considered a rich person... at least enough.

"Mr. Bai seems very confident in his abilities. I wonder what kind of job he plans to do in the future?"

“I don’t plan to work in the future.”

"...So you're not planning on having someone else take care of it in the future, are you?" Mebius asked jokingly.

"Well...it's not impossible."

Bai hadn't thought about it originally, but after hearing what Mobius said, he suddenly felt a little moved.

He has taken care of many people over the years, but the number of times he has been taken care of can be counted on one hand.

Anyway, I will have to stay in this world for a few years at least, so it’s not a bad idea to find someone or a maid to take care of me.

While Shiro was internally pondering over the right person for the maid, Mebius' smile gradually faded.

"Then may I take the liberty of asking, Mr. Bai, what is your relationship with the person you are waiting for?"

"A relationship, a very close one."

After all, Mei's father had already spoken, and he had agreed. In addition, Mei was still living in his house, so they were definitely very close.

Mebius took a deep breath and put a smile back on his face, but it lacked the kindness from before.

She could see that the man named Bai in front of her had most likely come in through the back door, and thought he could walk around freely in the Fire Moth just because he had a little money.

The person he was waiting for was probably forced to be with him because of money, but his purpose was to value the bright future of the person he was waiting for as a researcher.

I guess I was able to come here because someone from the institute opened the door. After all, the area near the institute is a strictly protected area, and it is impossible to get in without permission.

Without a job, bullying others by taking advantage of his power, and living a life of idleness and waiting to die, Bai in front of him had been labeled a scumbag by Mebius without hesitation. If she were to see him outside, she would think he was a waste of time just by looking at him.

But the fact that they were close was enough to prove that they were destined to be together, well, the kind of fate that made her want to stab him with a knife.

Such a person should make a contribution to her research, and maybe he will have the opportunity to become famous in the future for being the first sample in a certain experiment.

Mebius didn't care who Bai was waiting for. Anyway, no one in the institute had a higher status than Mei. She just had to make sure that Bai would not die on her operating table.

As for scars and the like...isn't it normal to accidentally bump into something when going out?

"Oh, I suddenly remembered something. I think I need to move something, but I can't do it alone. Could you please help me, Mr. Bai?"

Mebius looked annoyed, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Seeing Mobius' serious expression, Bai frowned slightly, "I still have to wait for someone here... Never mind, I can go help you, but it's best not to delay too long."

"It won't take too long, thank you." Mebius responded gratefully, stood up and walked in front with a smile on his face to lead the way.

Bai curled his lips slightly, stood up and followed.

Chapter 39 Good news for Hen

Mebius walked in front with a calm expression, while Bai followed behind him, looking around curiously, as if he was looking for someone.

Some people saw that Mebius came back shortly after he left, and took a curious look at him. When they saw Bai Shi behind Mobi Wusi, they all looked at him with pity.

Another poor child is going to be persecuted by Mebius, and it seems that Mebius is not in a good mood today. I hope this child can come out safely.

However, despite their pity, no one dared to step forward to remind them. After all, Mebius was now their superior. If they offended him, they might wake up on the operating table one day.

After returning to the laboratory without being disturbed, Mebius felt much better when he thought about what was going to happen next. He pushed open the door with an undisguised smile on his face.

Hearing the door open, Blanca, who had just finished cleaning the table, turned around with a slightly tired smile, admiring Mebius's control of time.

"You're back..." The smile on her face had not yet faded, but Blanca's eyes had already caught sight of Bai behind Mebius. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Bai put his finger to his mouth, making a gesture to ask her to keep it a secret.

Although she was puzzled by Bai's behavior, Blanca agreed for a moment and pretended not to know Bai.

"Doctor, who is this?"

"Nothing, Blanca. This gentleman is Bai. He's here to help. We can't neglect him. Go get some tea. The best."

the best!

Blanca's face changed slightly. How could she not know what others meant? The so-called best means something with added ingredients, the kind that would make it impossible to wake up.

Everyone who has been served this tea has one thing in common: they have been on Mebius's operating table, whether they wanted to or not.

She didn't know how Bai had offended Mebius, but because they were acquaintances, she couldn't just watch Bai go on the operating table. If something went wrong, she wouldn't be able to explain to Mei and Alicia.

"PhD..."

Blanca just shouted, but she caught a glimpse of Bai winking at her, as if to mean... tell her to leave it alone?

"What's wrong, Blanca?" Mebius asked in confusion.

Blanca looked conflicted, not knowing for a moment whether she should tell Mebius about Bai's affairs. After thinking about it, she decided to give up.

They both had the same idea, and since Bai seemed to know the inside story, she didn't want to disturb him.

However, when the operation really starts, she will watch from the side, so that she can stop Mebius in time if anything goes wrong.

"Doctor, I forgot where I put the tea."

"...The third drawer of the cabinet on the left side of the lab bench." Mebius was about to scold her, but he remembered Blanca's condition before. After giving her a reminder, he stopped paying attention and turned to look at Bai with a smile.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Bai. I can assure you that this will definitely be the most unforgettable tea you have ever tasted in your life."

"Really?" Bai asked innocently.

"Of course." Mobius turned around with a smile and pulled a chair over. "Come, sit down first. I'll tell you what to do next."

What to do? Of course, I was thinking about how to make him lie quietly on the operating table and undergo the experiment without making any noise.

Both of them knew it, but neither of them pointed it out.

After a few words, Blanca came over with a cup of tea and placed it in front of Bai under the gaze of the two.

"Please enjoy it."

Blanca had a blank expression on her face. She had already reminded Bai what she needed to remind him. Whatever Bai chose was his business. The most she could do was to stop Mebius at the risk of being scolded.

"Thank you." Bai took the tea, nodded with a smile, and his eyes lingered on Blanca for a moment.

"I wonder what to call this lady?"

"Her name is Blanca, and she's my assistant." Mebius raised his eyebrows.

How come Blanca is a lady here and she is a lady? Could it be that she has some ideas about Blanca because she looks young and beautiful?

Haha, he is indeed a scumbag.

If she remembered correctly, Blanca now had a husband, a boy named Hen. She had told Blanca several times that it would be good for her to devote herself to scientific research at such a young age. Starting a family so early would only slow down her research.

"Assistant? If it's just an assistant, it shouldn't be too tiring, right?"

"There's no such thing as tiring when it comes to scientific research. It's common to work all night long when things get busy." Mebius explained with a smile.

She didn't know about the others, but she was indeed like that. As for Blanca... as her assistant, it was natural for her to follow her pace.

Of course, if there is nothing to do or the things are relatively small, Blanca is still very leisurely. At most, she will do odd jobs in the laboratory and tidy up the equipment.

But these are the laboratory's private matters, so there's no need to tell Bai about them.

Seeing that Bai had already put the tea to his lips, the smile on Mebius's face was about to change.

Drink it quickly, it will be easier for her to do her job after drinking it.

But somehow, the tea that was already in front of her mouth was suddenly put back on the table by Bai, and he looked at her seriously.

"That's where you're wrong, Ms. Mays."

Why is she wrong? Mebius looked puzzled.

"I understand that researchers want to conduct research, but they can't disregard their own safety because of it."

Huh? Why didn't she care about safety? Anyone who came to her Mobius Lab, as long as they didn't come dead, she could guarantee they would leave alive. When it came to safety, she really wasn't afraid of anyone challenging her.

This guy in front of her didn't even know what was going on here, yet he dared to say that. It seemed there would be no need to give her anesthesia later.

While thinking silently in his heart, Mebius still forced a smile on his face.

"How could that be, Mr. Bai? If the safety of the laboratory can't be guaranteed, no one would be willing to come and do experiments. You must have heard that someone is spreading bad news, right?"

"No, no, no, Ms. Mace, you misunderstood." Bai shook his head and picked up the teacup. "I'm not talking about laboratory safety issues, but personal safety issues."

"Oh, then I wonder what Mr. Bai thinks?" Mebius narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes looked at Bai with an unfriendly look.

There are only two people in her laboratory. Doesn't Bai mean that there is something wrong with one of them and she didn't notice it?

This isn't a discussion about safety; it's questioning her abilities!

"My opinion is that Ms. Mays should do some self-reflection and give Ms. Blanca a long vacation."

"Why?" Mebius asked coldly, and at the same time suspected that Blanca knew Bai. After all, no one would show kindness to others for no reason.

"Why?" Bai raised his eyebrows, drank the tea in one gulp, and slammed the quilt on the table with a clang.

"Ms. Mays, even if you're doing scientific research, you should respect human rights. You're making a pregnant woman, who's only one or two months pregnant, work herself to death every day, even forcing her to work overtime. Don't you feel any remorse?"

The scene fell silent for a moment, Mebius and Blanca were both stunned, but Bai continued, "I have learned a little bit of medical skills before, although it may not be superb, but I can see that Miss Blanca is not in a good condition.

What about you, Ms. Mays? I heard from Miss Blanca that you are a doctor, right? Even if not in medicine, you should at least have a basic understanding of these things, right?

After he finished speaking, Shiro sighed, looking very disappointed with Mebius.

Mebius gritted his teeth slightly and looked at Blanca with a gloomy face.

Blanca smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I don't know, Doctor."

"Go get a checkup right now!"

"Doctor, I..."

"Go!"

"...Yes." Blanca responded helplessly, then walked to an instrument.

The instruments here can accurately measure various body data, and even something as simple as whether you are pregnant is no problem, with results available in just a few minutes.

Mebius looked at Bai in front of her with an uncertain expression. In every way, she hoped that Bai was lying. That way, she could not only punish Bai, but also have a reason to exonerate herself.
