Chapter 679 The Prime Suspect

The laboratory’s large door was closed, and tension filled the air inside the lab.

This incident was really significant.

Not to mention the prestige of the Interstellar Championship trophy, just the data leakage from this experiment alone would be enough to shock the scientific community.

The project, which Eskana had always led, had its results stolen, and what was more, the country responsible for the theft was Rexinheim, a nation with a longstanding feud with Eskana.

If this news leaked, Styre University would surely be thrust into the spotlight, becoming the focus of the entire nation and possibly labeled as traitors collaborating with the enemy.

Everyone present understood the severity of the situation. Though there were murmurs of discontent, no one dared to voice objections.

Among all the people in the laboratory, Catherine and Amelia, the two youngest, displayed entirely different reactions. While Amelia’s hands trembled with nervousness, Catherine sat calmly on the side, sketching with paper and pen.

Although they had their phones with them, the school not only closed the main entrance to the lab but also blocked signals throughout the building. Their phones were rendered useless inside.

Without a phone to distract her and unable to be as composed as Catherine, Amelia reluctantly started a conversation with Catherine.

“Super Catherine, how can you still be so calm and drawing with such a big thing happening?” asked Amelia.

Catherine paused her pen, turned her head with an unwavering gaze, and said, “Since we can’t leave, we might as well do something. Don’t waste time.”

Amelia, unable to hold back, asked, ” Aren’t you worried?”
