Chapter 177 seems to be a bit younger.
Why isn't this person leaving yet? Yu Miaomiaofelt really stifled in the narrow storage cabinet, so she slipped into the space, sat down next to Xu Nanwei, and gently touched Little Girl's forehead.
" Weiwei, we will definitely wake you up."
After she finished speaking, she continued to observe the outside world through the spatial screen.
The person in charge, surnamed Liu, turned his back and then suddenly turned around, looking back towards the locker where she was hiding.
At this moment, Yu Miaomiao remained completely calm, as she was no longer inside the locker. However, Li Xiangyang, standing outside the locker, was extremely nervous.
"Why is this cabinet locked? Open it and let me check it. You young juniors always take it upon yourselves to bring all sorts of random things into the lab. Don't think I don't know."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiangyang's heart raced instantly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His heart was pounding, but he had to force himself to remain calm and keep his voice steady.
"This is Teacher Wang's locker, I don't know either… You'll need to ask Teacher Wang for the key to check."
Director Liu clearly didn't believe it. He reached out and tried to turn the cabinet door without success, then looked into the hole in the storage cabinet.
The single eye, covered in bright red blood vessels, stared directly at Yu Miaomiao.
I hadn't seen this person's face up close before, but now it looks absolutely terrifying.
Li Xiangyang's heart was in his throat. He knew that once the locker was opened, Yu Miaomiao's hiding place would be exposed.
When Director Liu saw that it was indeed locked, his dissatisfaction turned into violence, and he kicked the lock.
"Don't think you can fool me. Let me tell you, nobody can pull any tricks under my nose."
The kick was quite forceful; the flimsy metal cabinet swayed precariously, and the screws on the cabinet door appeared to have come loose.
Just as the metal cabinet door was about to be kicked open, there was a knock on the laboratory door.
" Director Liu, something's happened. Teacher Wang requests your assistance."
Director Liu was taken aback, clearly displeased by the sudden interruption. His sharp gaze swept over the rickety cabinet door, then glanced inside...
"Understood. This cabinet is not allowed to be locked from now on. We didn't find it this time, but we won't be so lucky next time. You know what happens when I catch you." He left the laboratory after saying this.
Li Xiangyang felt a chill run down his spine; the cabinet door was so damaged that the inside of the cabinet was completely visible...
But Director Liu said they couldn't find it this time.
Were they deliberately letting him off the hook?
But in any case, seeing the person leave, Li Xiangyang breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy weight in his heart finally lifted.
He glanced furtively in the direction of the locker, silently praying that the girl was still safe and sound inside.
Yu Miaomiao also quickly moved back into the dilapidated storage cabinet.
As soon as she stood still, an eye peered through the damaged area and met Yu Miaomiao's gaze. Upon seeing that it was Li Xiangyang, Yu Miaomiao pretended to be somewhat frightened.
"Did they...did they leave?"
"I'm leaving, come out now." Li Xiangyangunlocked the cabinet door, and after Yu Miaomiao came out, he locked the cabinet door again, pretending that he had never touched the lock.
"Is it necessary to be so careful?" she asked, puzzled. She felt that Li Xiangyang was not only not crazy, but also in a state of being easily frightened, as if any slight disturbance would trigger his alertness and stress response.
Moreover, upon closer inspection, she realized that Li Xiangyang appeared to be much younger than the unshaven middle-aged man she had seen before.
