"You guys are too slow at compiling. I can speed it up. All you need to do is send me the info," Shane said as he closed the book in his hands. "Also, I'm not reading. I'm preparing for the postgraduate exam." "Post...graduate?" Charlotte almost thought that something was wrong with her hearing.

"Yes. I've been preparing for the postgraduate exam during this period of time."

Charlotte didn't know how she fell asleep. But she probably fell asleep after being startled by Shane.

When she woke up the next day, she was still in a daze.

By the time she arrived at Avery's house, Charlotte was still in a blurry state. On the one hand, she knew that Shane had quite a few degree certificates. On the other hand, she thought that Shane was taking a break from work during this period of time, but he ended up saying that he was preparing for the postgraduate exam. Charlotte was instantly bewildered when she heard that. She thought that Shane no longer cared about these things anymore.

No, it was not necessarily these things. It was...

Forget it. Her mind was in chaos, and she had no idea what she was thinking or doing.

Avery took his laptop and connected it to the Wifi. He took out a few small printers and placed them aside. "If you need to print something, just use this one."

"Alright." Charlotte took one and linked it to her laptop.

Shane took his laptop and connected it to his keyboard and mouse. After the screen lit up, he linked his laptop to the printer. He did not speak, as if he had shifted into work mode.

After a while, Peter and Zoe also came over. Rick and Kendall arrived half an hour later too. However, Kendall had never participated in these investigations. She was always gaming alone in the corner. They had been busy for the whole day.

"I'm sleepy." Rick massaged his temples and said, "Avery, do you have coffee?"

"Do you want to nap for a while?" Avery was worried about him.

Before Rick could answer, Shane said lightly, "Sleep more when you can. You won't know when's the next time you'll open your eyes."

What?

Everyone was stunned. Rick blinked in shock before asking, "Shane, I think you meant, I won't know when's the next time I'll close my eyes."

"Open your eyes."

"Are you cursing me?" Rick said with a smirk. It was true that he had a good temper, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't care about being cursed. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to walk towards Shane. "If you don't sleep, you won't be able to open your eyes in the future," Shane said calmly as he typed away on the keyboard.
