When did this system gain any sense? Did it sneak some 'Six Walnuts' today?
Ming Li watched the system, lost in thought. Finally, between going to sleep and going to the laboratory, she chose the latter.
Time flew by, and Ming Li was sleepless all night.
The next morning.
Ming Li arrived at the laboratory with two huge panda eyes, startling everyone, especially Xia Lianrong.
Xia Lianrong looked at Ming Li, her voice filled with concern, "What's wrong with you? Your complexion is so poor, and you have such exaggerated dark circles... Did you do something bad in the middle of the night?"
(ー_ー)??
Xia Lianrong expressed some suspicion.
The system looked at Ming Li's unusually dark eye circles and twitched its mouth. "Host, aren't these dark circles a bit too much?"
Ming Li: "What do you know? This is called commitment to the role."
As she spoke, Ming Li covered her mouth with her hand, yawned lazily, and handed the item in her other hand to Xia Lianrong.
Xia Lianrong took the syringe from Ming Li, stunned for a moment. "What is this?"
Ming Li impatiently rubbed her hair, pushing down a few stray strands, and said weakly, "This is the new agent I developed last night. The previous one took 5 hours to steep, wasting both water and time, so I created a new injectable agent."
Upon hearing this, Xia Lianrong's pupils contracted. She propped up her chin, which was about to fall to the ground. "You?!!! Are you a laboratory genius! You developed a new agent in one night. Isn't this a bit too incredible? How are we supposed to live, us who are also in research?!"
Seeing Xia Lianrong stammering, Ming Li raised an eyebrow, looking at her questioningly. "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Xia Lianrong calmed her overly shocked emotions and thought of something. She asked, "Have you tested this new agent? Are there any side effects?"
Ming Li shook her head, looking genuinely absentminded. "No, I forgot."
Cough cough cough!
Xia Lianrong was directly choked by her own saliva. "What?! No tests? You dared to inject it directly into zombies? Are you sure you won't be swarmed by them?"
Ming Li shrugged and said, "We can just grab two zombies, inject them, and observe. What's the big deal?"
Xia Lianrong: "...This idea of yours is very dangerous, you know?"
After Ming Li handed the method for making the agent to the laboratory staff, she waved her hand and said, "You guys research it first. I'll have An Li catch some zombies later. You can conduct experiments. Once it's confirmed to be safe, you can go catch zombies. I'm going back to get some sleep."
With that, Ming Li gave a perfunctory yawn, waved her sleeves, and left without leaving a trace.
Although An Li had been restored to human form, he was still the king of the zombies, so the zombies had to listen to him.
Therefore, a few zombies were sent to the laboratory at noon.
Xia Lianrong looked at the delivered zombies, then at the new agent in her hand. After some thought, she finally injected each zombie in the rear.
Before An Li could even stop her, the injection was complete.
An Li's mouth twitched slightly as he reminded, "Aunt Xia, Sister said this agent is injected into the arm... So why are you poking it into their butts?"
(ー_ー)!!
Hearing this, Xia Lianrong looked at the syringe in her hand, her mouth also twitching. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
