HRPM – Chapter 14 A Disastrous First Encounter (2)

“Damn it—just because I stepped out, this bunch of cowardly little rabbits all ran off. That’s seriously disloyal!”

Lüya shot her bold, fearless mistress an exasperated look.

“Miss, you’re the only one who isn’t afraid of dying. Everyone knows it’s dangerous in there—who would willingly rush in? Miss, can’t we research something else? Why do you have to study something as dangerous as explosives? And you’ve already failed ninety-nine times—just give up!”

Lüya deliberately emphasized the shocking number “ninety-nine,” trying to shake her resolve.

“Give up????”

Jin Luoluo practically bristled.

She stared at Lüya in disbelief and grabbed her, shaking her vigorously.

“Do you even know what ‘immortal scientific spirit’ means? Nobel nearly blew himself up before inventing explosives! Edison tried six thousand materials before inventing the light bulb! What’s ninety-nine failures? People in research need perseverance to start over after failure—and the courage to sacrifice themselves for science! Aaaah! Failure cannot stop my determination to develop explosives!”

“Miss, are you really going to do it yourself? It’s too dangerous!”

“Well, who told all of you to run faster than rabbits? Since I can’t find any assistants, of course I have to do it myself. This time, I followed the formula in The History of Explosives strictly—it can’t fail. Explosives, here I come! This time I’ll definitely conquer you—I’m going all out!”

Jin Luoluo put on her specially made blast-proof suit.

With righteous determination, she marched into the Jin Luoluo Research Center.

After tinkering for quite a while—

Boom!

With a loud explosion, the thatched roof was blown off once again.

Thick black smoke rose into the air.

A certain young lady who had walked in… came flying out, landing in the grass and yelping in pain.

This proved that overconfidence can be quite tragic.

Experiments are dangerous—kids, don’t try to imitate this overly enthusiastic heroine.

“Miss! The master wants you in the main hall to meet distinguished guests. Huh? Where did Miss go? Lüya, why can’t I find her?”

Hongye rushed in from the outer courtyard, shaking her head as she searched everywhere but couldn’t find her mistress.

“Hongye, I’m… right… here…”

Jin Luoluo, her face full of black lines, looked at Hongye.

“Ah! Miss, how did you end up like this?!”
