When the Sima Heavy Industries delivery team quietly left more than half an hour later, the laboratory had gained a large pile of tightly packed boxes.
Seeing the hundreds of boxes of various sizes piled up like a small mountain, the corner of Sumire Muroto's mouth twitched slightly a few times. She directly grabbed Morin as free labor, unpacking the sealed boxes according to the list while carefully taking out the contents.
Ultra-high magnification microscopes, biological protein separators, automatic monitoring and analyzers, and other high-precision medical equipment, which were considered top-notch medical research equipment even in the peaceful era more than a decade ago, were now close to the pinnacle level in most human settlement areas. Although the medical instruments Morin ordered weren't too many, they were according to Sumire Muroto's requirements and could be combined with other instruments in the basement to form a cutting-edge laboratory capable of small-scale production of most drugs.
Of course, after Sumire Muroto brought up these reasons, Morin, who had previously made those requests, had no choice but to obediently act as a coolie, carefully helping Sumire Muroto unpack the boxes while assembling the medical equipment he didn't understand at all according to Sumire Muroto's instructions and diagrams!
...
"It really brings back memories..."
While Morin busied himself with unpacking and assembling the equipment, Sumire Muroto watched the scene with a slightly nostalgic look, a hint of reminiscence and sweetness flashing in her unhidden beautiful eyes.
Compared to the commanding Sumire Muroto and Morin, who was listening to instructions and assembling and arranging various medical research equipment and containers, Kohina sat aside somewhat bored, watching. Her combat prowess was undoubtedly outstanding, but when it came to medical equipment and personal knowledge... well, who would have high expectations for a little girl who was only ten years old and hadn't even gone to elementary school?
"Cough, Doctor Sumire, is there anything else to do?"
After busying himself for more than an hour and assembling about twenty pieces of equipment, Morin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Sumire Muroto, who was drinking coffee, he couldn't help but pay attention and coughed a few times before asking.
It should be said that Sumire Muroto's current attire and demeanor were completely different from the negative image Morin had seen before.
Not only had all her clothes been washed and changed, but Sumire Muroto herself no longer had that feeling of passively waiting for death. The aura emanating from her was completely one of vigor and ambition. Sumire Muroto, who was originally a beauty, was now completely a mature and alluring scientist with a unique charm.
At first glance, Morin even felt a sense of attraction, but he immediately controlled his emotions and coughed a couple of times to change the subject!
"...Is it done? Let me take a look then!"
Seemingly noticing Morin's gaze, a faint blush appeared on Sumire Muroto's face, but she didn't show it at all.
Seeing Sumire Muroto walk over, Morin subtly stepped aside and saw Sumire Muroto approach the experimental instruments. She then very skillfully checked the experimental containers, which were already very rare, and even quietly estimated the effectiveness of the experimental instruments.
What made Morin somewhat embarrassed and speechless was that, he wondered if it was because he hadn't had a real relationship with Asuna Yuuki in Sword Art Online and had been holding back for too long. When he slightly saw Sumire Muroto bend down, her full, moon-like buttocks and slender beautiful legs made Morin always feel a bit too hot in his heart, and his lower body even showed a tendency to stand at attention.
To avoid some embarrassing situations, Morin had to shift his gaze while talking to Kohina, who was diligently trying to finish her lollipop on the side, to divert his attention!
"Well done! All the ordered instruments are here, and the quality is indeed good!"
After Sumire Muroto finished checking the instrument set and nodded to show her satisfaction, she noticed Morin's wandering gaze and asked somewhat strangely, "What are you looking at?"
"Cough cough, nothing, I was just thinking about something just now..."
Morin coughed dryly twice, his expression very nonchalant as he replied.
For that kind of thing, Morin could properly flirt with Asuna Yuuki and then try to have a wonderful memory with the girl, but it was clearly impossible to tell Sumire Muroto the truth he would be considered a pervert!
"This is the inhibitor I replicated from IISO's formula, fifteen doses. Consider it your first installment of the reward!"
Seeing Morin's unchanging expression, Sumire Muroto, who didn't notice anything amiss, didn't delve further. She walked directly to a storage cabinet on the side, entered the password to open it, took out a special silver-white briefcase, opened it, and then spoke to Morin and Kohina.
Inside the silver-white briefcase, fifteen injection syringes and injectors were laid out, attracting the attention of Morin and Kohina!
"Thank you!"
Morin looked at the inhibitors in the briefcase, took a deep breath, and then thanked Sumire Muroto.
These fifteen doses of inhibitors were definitely worth more than just the value of the drugs themselves. It could be said that besides the value of the drugs, they also represented Sumire Muroto's own technology and strength, as well as her goodwill towards Morin to be serious, Sumire Muroto could have completely waited for Morin to pay first and then made the drugs when she had time. Giving the drugs in advance was definitely a gesture of closeness and goodwill!
What Morin wasn't quite clear about was why Sumire Muroto's attitude towards him was so friendly? Did Sumire Muroto find him particularly pleasing to the eye?
"You're welcome! Consider it a normal transaction!"
Sumire Muroto somewhat guiltily avoided Morin's gaze, but then looked at Kohina sitting on the side, reached out to Kohina who was still struggling with her lollipop, and said very directly, "Kohina, come over here so I can examine you and check your Gastrea Virus factor erosion..."
"Me?!"
Kohina looked at Sumire Muroto somewhat blankly, pointing at herself with a surprised counter-question.
"Of course, it's you. You definitely stimulated the power of the Gastrea Virus factors a lot to defeat a Stage [III] Gastrea, didn't you? Don't you want to check your virus erosion rate?"
Seeing Kohina's bewildered expression, Sumire Muroto looked at her speechlessly, then turned to Morin and expressed her dissatisfaction.
"Kohina, listen to Doctor Sumire!"
Morin looked at Sumire Muroto somewhat helplessly, but still spoke to Kohina.
Kohina was very obedient to Morin's orders, but the examination that Sumire Muroto then conducted on Kohina was beyond Morin's comprehension, such as procedures involving checking her body, checking her body, and checking her body.
Especially when Sumire Muroto asked Kohina to take off her clothes for the examination, Kohina obediently complied somewhat blankly, but Sumire Muroto stopped her first. Then, Sumire Muroto looked at Morin with a gaze as if looking at a gentleman (pervert), causing Morin to directly flee!
Who would have known that Kohina really listened to Sumire Muroto and didn't even notice Morin on the side, directly preparing to take off her gothic lolita dress?!
"Hmph hmph... Could it be that there really are gentlemen (perverts) who prey on lolis..."
After Kohina's physical examination was completed, she came out of the room with Sumire Muroto, having put on her clothes. When Sumire Muroto saw Morin again, her first words made Morin's head fill with black lines.
Damn it!
Who wants to be some gentleman (pervert)!
Three years of blood profit, no loss even with the death penalty... cough cough, too much of a digression. Morin himself was definitely a huge cat lover!
To avoid further misunderstanding, Morin forcibly suppressed the urge to retort to Sumire Muroto's evaluation, hurriedly took Kohina's physical examination report, and then directly expressed his intention to leave, immediately pulling Kohina away.
...
"What a slow-witted guy..."
Seeing Morin leave with Kohina, Sumire Muroto couldn't help but say softly.
At this time, Sumire Muroto completely lacked her previous aloof and slightly alluring demeanor. Instead, her pretty face was slightly flushed, her arms propped on the table, a charming scene like a young girl in love!
However, Morin and Kohina couldn't see this situation.
"However, their personalities are exactly the same!"
After muttering a few words softly, Sumire Muroto recalled Morin's actions just now, and a smile appeared on her face again. Then, she secretly took out a book from her desk drawer and muttered while flipping through it, "I don't believe that if you really come back, you wouldn't notice me..."
