People are in the Ark, and they become Gray Shu at the beginning

After tidying up the room, Hemer straightened up, a firm look flashed in his eyes, and then said to Ifrit who was sitting on the bed:

"... Ifrit, I have to go out for something. You stay here and read the new picture book I bought for you if you are bored."

"Okay, I'll wait here for Hemer to come back."

Hearing this, Ifrit was a little surprised, but still nodded his head obediently.

"Well, I'll be back with you soon."

Looking at the well-behaved Ifrit in front of him, Hemer couldn't help but reach out and rub her little head.

------------------

After leaving Ifrit's room, Hemer had no

Hesitantly, he went directly to the office of his teacher, Ahrendts, the head of the structural department.

Time was running out, and she couldn't delay any longer. She wanted to know the truth, and at the same time, she wanted to delay Ifrit's "treatment"...

Even if she couldn't do it, she hoped that she could get in touch with Ifrit, which would make it easier for her to do some things.

……

"咚咚-"

"Please come in."

Hearing the knock on the door, Ahrendts, who was busy processing documents, said.

As he finished speaking, the person outside the door opened it and walked in.

"Oh, it's Homer, what's up?"

Ahrendts looked up at the person who came, and when he found that it was his student, he put down the pen in his hand, adjusted his glasses and asked.

"Teacher, I want to talk to you."

Looking at the person sitting at the desk in front of him, Hemer looked extremely serious. Before Ahrendts could react, he quickly bowed to him and said loudly: "Teacher, I'm sorry!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Ahrendts slowly opened his eyes wide, and it was obvious that he was a little confused about the current situation.

At this moment, Hemer's words had not stopped yet, she continued with a sincere look on her face:

"I have calmed down and thought about it these days. I did let my sympathy for the patient's pain and suffering affect my judgment, and I even contradicted you, teacher!"

"I even disclosed the experimental process to outsiders... The teacher was so kind to me, but I let him down."

"I am really ashamed of this, please forgive me, teacher!"

"..."

After hearing Hemer's apology, Ahrendts was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked to her side. After patting her on the shoulder, he smiled and said, "Well, that's great, Hemer."

"I'm glad you understand my painstaking efforts! Of course I should forgive you!"

"Thank you, teacher!"

"very good……"

Hearing this, Ahrendts smiled and nodded, then seemed to have thought of something, and changed the subject: "By the way, Hemer, we will resume the treatment of Ifrit from tomorrow, remember to prepare."

"As for your authority, I will restore it for you before this treatment begins."

"!"

Even though Hemer had prepared himself mentally, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard these words.

Although she knew that her teacher would give Ifrit another "treatment" as soon as possible, she did not expect that time would be so urgent and that it would start directly tomorrow.

But soon, Hemer suppressed his surprise, nodded to Ahrendts, and said seriously: "In this case, I will go back and prepare well."

Then, when Hemer had already turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned his head to look at Ahrendts.

"That's right! Teacher..."

ps: I have been staying up late again without realizing it, and I got stuck while writing. I hope everyone is well.

Chapter 119: Teacher-Student Confrontation

"Oh, right! Teacher, since we are going to have treatment tomorrow, the new injection machine and other instrument data need to be adjusted. If you are busy, you can give me your ID card and I will do the operation for you..."

"Oh!"

Hearing this, Ahrendts reached out his hand to support his eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I forgot all this!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Hemer!"

After he finished speaking, Ahrendts took off the work badge hanging on his chest and handed it to Hemer in front of him.

"Ah."

After successfully obtaining the work badge of the structural department director Ahrendts and leaving the office, the smile on Hemer's face instantly disappeared, and he walked quickly towards the structural department's database with a serious face.

However, the anxious and nervous Hemer did not notice that not long after she left, the door of the structural director's office was opened again...

……

"Di-"

Hemer walked quickly to the database, took out Ahrendts' work badge and scanned it, successfully opened the door here, and then entered.

After entering, she quickly rushed to the computer where the structural department data was stored, and then searched specifically for things related to the [Flame Demon Project].

"Click click click..."

As the rapid keyboard sounds continued to ring, the information that Hemer wanted to see soon appeared before her eyes...

However, the more carefully she looked at the information, the uglier her expression became, the more frightened she became, and cold sweat slowly appeared on her forehead.

"【Flame Demon Project】...Codename【Ifrit】?!"

"How could it be...why..."

"What...what are these?!"

Although Hemer was mentally prepared before reading this treatment because of the [Snake Master], when she faced this detailed experimental plan, her face was still full of disbelief and she was unable to accept it.

"Clap clap clap..."

"!!!"

Just as Hemer was looking at the experimental plan in front of her with horror and anger, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind her, which startled her again and she turned around quickly.

"Hemer, did you see everything?"

"teacher?"

However, after seeing the kind face of the visitor, Hemer was so frightened that he leaned against the table behind him.

In addition to anger, his expression also contained some fear.

"It's okay, Hemer, just look at it."

Unlike Hemer who looked a little embarrassed due to his violently fluctuating emotions, Ahrendts looked extremely calm at this moment, just smiling and "kindly" looking at the students in front of him.

"These materials were originally meant to be given to you."

"..."

Seeing his teacher like this, Hemer couldn't help it anymore and asked him angrily: "Teacher, what are these?"

"Project Flame Demon...what on earth is this experiment all about?!"

"I'm sorry, due to confidentiality, a lot of information was not explained in advance, resulting in you not being able to fully understand the significance of the experiment."

Facing the angry Hemer, Ahrendts smiled even more happily, and then explained slowly: "I hope you can understand my difficulties."

"Understand what? Understand that you conducted illegal human experiments?!" The calmer Ahrendts acted at this moment, the angrier Hemer became.

"So your goal is not to cure Ifrit, nor do you want to prevent her Originium skills from getting out of control..."

"You...you are just waiting for the moment when she will become a killing weapon!"

"Hemer..."

It was not until this time that the smile on Ahrendts' face faded, replaced by a look of helplessness.

"When you took on this project, didn't you realize that this was a human experiment?"

"!"

A short sentence from Ahrendts, a teacher, stunned the furious Hemer.

"What... I don't understand... why?"

At this point, Hemer seemed to remember something and quickly brought up an old story: "Didn't you oppose the experiment Joyce went through before?!"

"Joyce?"

Facing his student's question again, Ahrendts was slightly stunned, then after thinking about it, he said: "Oh, of course."

"Joyce is an excellent scientific researcher. Her wisdom and life should be devoted to more valuable work. It is not worth it to be harmed because of an experiment."

At this point, Ahrendts paused for a moment, closed his eyes, and continued with a look of pain: "For an experiment like that, if we recruit volunteers from outside, there will be as many desperate volunteers as we want."

"!"

Hemer never thought that the reason why his teacher opposed his friend's personal experiment was not because of safety concerns, but simply because of this... because of the value! ?

This realization made Hemer's mind confused and even caused a moment of tinnitus.

In the end, the unwillingness in his heart forced Hemer to speak again: "Is Ifrit's life worthless?"

"She is also a life!!"

"Of course Ifrit's life is valuable. She is one of the very few precious experimental subjects who can withstand the fragments of the Fire Demon. Her sacrifice and contribution to the experiment will also be recorded in history."

No matter how many times Hemer asked or refuted, Ahrendts always answered calmly.

After getting such an answer, Hemer became even angrier and his teeth were almost broken.

"Are you crazy?!"

"Illegal human experimentation... is inhumane! It is a recognized taboo in the academic community! How could you do such a thing?!!"

"Ah... I don't understand, Hemer."

After waiting for his students to question and vent, Ahrendts took off his glasses and wiped them gently before saying calmly, "I really don't understand."

"Scientific progress always comes with sacrifice. How could you forget that?"

"Progress achieved at the cost of human lives...that's not science! That's a crime!" As soon as Ahrendts said this, Hemer immediately retorted.

She really couldn't agree with her teacher's views.

However, whether Hemer agrees or not, Ahrendts continues to say: "Sometimes it is the life of the experimental subjects that drives scientific progress, and sometimes it is the scientists themselves."

"War is often the strongest driving force for technological progress. I don't know how many children like Ifrit have died in wars."

"Much of the technology we use today was born out of countless sacrifices. It's hypocritical to point out that sacrifices are inhumane while enjoying these technologies, Hummer."

Having said that, Ahrendts looked directly at Hemer and his tone gradually became lower.

Chapter 120: Wavering and Doubt

"..."

After hearing what his teacher said, Hemer fell silent, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead again.

She knew in her heart that it was not like that, not what her teacher said, but she didn't know how to refute it for a moment...

And just as Hemer was silent for a while, Ahrendts spoke again, "Ifrit, we saved her. I even asked you to take care of her daily life. Not only can she enjoy a life without worries about food and clothing, but she can also contribute to such a great experiment."

"Compared to the children who died of mineral sickness in the wilderness, she is so lucky."

"No...no!"

Hemer started to refute again in a confused state, but unlike her previous organized and targeted rebuttal, she was confused and just kept saying no.

However, Ahrendts' devilish words did not stop.

.

"This child has given everything to science, and you are blaming science itself."

"no no……"
