Ye Chen sat in the office, and when he saw the lights go out, he knew their experiment had failed.
This was within Ye Chen's expectations.
Almost simultaneously, the whole area around Star University, including nearby communities and schools, experienced a power outage.
The power company's phone lines were almost completely jammed with calls.
The power company's leadership called in their technical staff.
However, the technicians were equally baffled.
Lately, there hadn't been any maintenance on the lines.
"Find out the cause immediately," the leader said angrily.
Everywhere else was without power, but at Star University, the school's backup generators quickly started producing electricity.
Ye Chen then went to the laboratory.
At that moment, a few students looked anxious and lost; they couldn't understand where the experiment had gone wrong.
"Why don't we try again?" Wang Meng suggested, gritting his teeth.
