In the laboratory, Li Zhuo stood in front of the experiment table while the others watched from the corner of the room.

Henry rummaged through the cabinet for a long time before finally finding a pile of documents at the bottom.

He casually threw the documents on the table and said, “I don’t know what went wrong in my head for me to agree to such a boring bet.”

“Now that I think about it, this kind of thing is meaningless and very boring.”

“If you want to learn my pharmaceutical technology, you must first understand the names and effects of the various ingredients. Only by remembering these differences can you have a chance to truly come into contact with the profession of pharmacist.”

“So, take these documents and read them first. Memorize them and come to me again.”

“I’ll give you a month. If you can’t do it, then I win, okay?”

Henry looked like he was talking to Li Zhuo, but in fact, the last sentence he said was to Alsop.

After all, this was a bet between Alsop and him.

Alsop glanced at Li Zhuo, then smiled and said, “Okay, but I think he should be able to remember it in less than a month.”

“That’s impossible.” Henry did not care about it at all, as if he had heard a joke.

He shrugged, pointed at the documents. “It took me a month to memorize these documents…”

“Wait!” Carl frowned when he heard this. “You took a month to memorize these, why did you give him the same time? It’s not fair!”

Carl said this because he knew how hard it was to memorize all kinds of things that looked very similar but were slightly different.

This was a common problem in science.

In Carl’s opinion, the reason why everyone here could become the world’s top criminal master was not because of hard work. It was more because of talent.

Without talent, no matter how hard they tried, it would be useless.

However, Henry, who had the talent of a pharmacist, spent a month memorizing so many documents.

Li Zhuo would need at least three months, or even longer.

Hearing Carl’s words, Li Zhuo also nodded slightly, “giving me a month is indeed unfair…”

Alsop frowned slightly but did not say anything. She believed that Li Zhuo could do it. She admired him very much.

However, now, this young man she admired actually said such a thing. This made Alsop very disappointed.

In her opinion, Li Zhuo should bravely accept this challenge and strive to memorize these boring documents within a month.

This was not only Alsop’s impression of him, it was also the impression of the others as well.

However, Li Zhuo’s next sentence stunned all of them.

“This is too unfair to Mr. Henry. If he used it for a month, I think I only need three hours.”

“…” Henry did not know what to say.

What do you mean unfair to me?!

Henry revealed a slightly ferocious smile because he felt that he had been insulted.

“Three hours, is it? Sure!”

“Li, if you don’t remember the contents of the document after three hours, I won’t be merciful.”

After saying that, Henry looked at Alsop and said, “Just wait until you put on the frog costume and sing happy birthday while walking around Section S! Hahaha!!”

Henry let out a ferocious laugh, but it was interrupted by the sound of a piece of paper flipping. The frequency of the sound was very dense, about two to three pages per second.

The smile on Henry’s face instantly froze. An ominous premonition arose in his heart.

His neck turned stiffly. What he saw was a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

He saw Li Zhuo flipping through the document in his hand expressionlessly. The speed of flipping was so fast that it made people wonder if he was really reading it.

Seeing this scene, Alsop immediately became excited.

‘I knew it. This kid will definitely not let me down.’ Alsop could not help but cheer silently in her heart.

Henry’s face turned ashen.

Was this kid putting on an act? Ridiculous! How could someone read so quickly?

Moreover, he had to remember those complicated reagent ingredients and formulas.

Henry immediately confirmed in his heart. This guy must be putting on an act in order to make me admit defeat. How ridiculous!

Thinking of this, Henry got up and left the lab, preparing to go to the beverage room to drink a cup of coffee.

The room immediately became quieter. Only the sound of Li Zhuo flipping through the paper was left.

When Li Zhuo finished flipping through a document and was about to pick up another document, Carl took the time to ask.

“Li, you’ve finished reading this document?”

There was a hint of surprise and a hint of disbelief in his tone.

However, Li Zhuo nodded very calmly and said, “That’s right, I’ve finished reading.”

“You’ve memorized everything?”

“I’ve memorized everything.”

Li Zhuo’s tone had always been so calm as if there were no fluctuations in his emotions at all.

In fact, he was already used to this.

He was used to reading so quickly, and he was used to memorizing everything he had seen so quickly.

In his understanding, memorizing was such a simple thing. How could someone waste so much time just to memorize something?

Was this not kind of thing something that could be engraved in one’s mind after reading it once?

Alsop asked curiously, “Can you really finish reading these documents in three hours?”

Although this was a question, Alsop believed that Li Zhuo could do it.

However, Li Zhuo shook his head slightly at this time.

“I thought it would take three hours, but now it seems that 20 minutes should be enough.”

“Maybe to prevent wear and tear, the papers of these documents are very thick, so I made a mistake. At most 20 minutes, I can finish reading them all.”

After saying that, he did not say anything else and continued to pick up the next document and read it quickly.

The others looked at each other and were so surprised that they could not say a word.

There were so many documents, and he could read them all in twenty minutes and memorize them?

Carl’s face was filled with strong distrust. He had never seen the magic of Li Zhuo’s learning ability.

However, Alsop and Alan were convinced. Putnam sat quietly in the same place with a faint smile.

Thirty minutes later, Henry came to the laboratory with a cup of hot coffee in his hands.

Seeing that no one had left, he was stunned for a moment and said, “Why are you still here?”

In his imagination, everyone should have been bored and went to the entertainment room to play games.

However, everyone looked at him with a strange expression. This made him very puzzled.

“Alright, I got it. Do you all think that this kid can memorize all the documents within three hours?”

“Even if you want to be an idiot, please be a smart idiot. Go to the entertainment room and play a few rounds of games. Come back in three hours, okay?”

Henry was trying his best to ridicule everyone.

However, this ridicule made everyone’s expressions become even stranger. Henry looked at everyone’s faces and felt that something was wrong.

Behind Henry, Li Zhuo’s voice could be heard. “Mr. Henry, I have memorized all these documents..”
