Chapter 819
All the advancements of civilization are the culmination of our ancestors'
painstaking efforts.
Mirabella suddenly thought of the person who had taught her these things. Later,
it was because of these so-called advancements of civilization that they
disappeared without a trace.
Mirabella let out a soft sigh and closed her laptop.
In the evening, after spending two days and nights in the lab, Nick came back. He was thin, naturally pale, and looked even more haggard and sickly due to the lack of sleep.
Mirabella knew he was coming back today and had ordered takeout, though it hadn't arrived yet.
She went to the fridge to grab him a bottle of water and, under the pretense of checking his pulse, found that his condition was only due to staying up late and nothing more serious.
"Have you already registered at the university?" Nick asked, taking a few sips of water and twisting the cap back on.
Mirabella nodded. "You should still take care to rest, Nick, no matter how busy you are."
Nick smiled. "Yeah, I know. Things will be better once the research results are out."noveldrama
Mirabella didn't ask Nick what his research was about. After all, scientists have confidentiality agreements with the government, and there are some things not even family members can mention.
Just then, the doorbell rang. Mirabella stood up from the couch. "That should be the delivery. I'll go get it."
"Okay," Nick replied, putting down his bottle of water and signaling to the robot, habitually pressing a button on its body to record his activity.
As soon as he pressed the button, the robot's infrared eyes flashed as if capturing his image, making Nick pause, puzzled. It hadn't done that before, had it?
He tilted his head in confusion but then took out his phone to check the Al system, which showed everything was normal.
Mirabella had already brought the takeout inside, placing the meals on the dining table and calling everyone to eat.
Distracted by this, Nick's confusion was forgotten, and he stood up to head to the dining room.
After dinner, Nick remembered something. He told Mirabella not to go upstairs yet and hurried out to the garage.
He retrieved a white paper bag from the car and brought it back inside, handing it to Mirabella. "Here, Mirabella, use this during your training camp. It'll prevent sunburn."
Inside the paper bag were three bottles of sunscreen, unlabelled.
Nick coughed and explained, "It's an internal research product from another department. Supposed to be very effective."
Mirabella, who had been contemplating buying some sunscreen, gratefully accepted. "Thank you, Nick."
Her usual laid-back demeanor made this moment of gratitude quite heartwarming. Nick's heart melted, and he instinctively reached out to ruffle his sister's hair.
"Such a good girl," Nick let out a contented sigh.
Mirabella: "..."
**
September 1st, the first day of school for all students.
Though the biology department at Prestige College ranked first nationwide, it attracted few students. Of the more than two thousand new enrollees, perhaps fewer than two hundred chose it.
Mirabella was assigned to the bioinformatics specialization, having been notified by a text message from a department teacher the day before.
Bioinformatics is essentially the study of biological systems through computer technology.
It doesn't require various experimental analyses, but manages data recorded on computers, comparing it to discover new patterns from the data center. It's considered one of the specializations that require the least natural talent among all the branches.
Mirabella had initially intended to study biotechnology but was surprised to find herself placed in bioinformatics.
New environment, new challenges, but she was ready.
