Chapter 261 Confrontation



Hence, when they arrived at school early in the morning, they stopped attending classes and rushed over to watch the show.

Although the firefighters were not slow, because of the chemical explosion, the fire spread very quickly and basically burned the entire building.

Looking from afar, the outer wall had been burned black, and the windows had been shattered by the aftermath of the explosion.

Everyone discussed animatedly, trying to guess the cause of the fire. If not for the tightly shut gate and the cordon, some curious students would have wanted to go to the ruins to investigate.

Most students guessed that it was an accident. After all, there was no news of any casualties. In addition, the planetarium was usually deserted, let alone in the middle of the night. Other than ghosts, no one else would come to visit.

However, there were also people with sharp ears and eyes who had heard some news from their elders. They knew that the commotion last night was not small and even involved several public security departments. Therefore, the fire this time should not be as simple as an accident.

After Caroline arrived at the school, she followed the crowd to the Astronomical Hall and saw Jeffrey in the crowd. He was staring at the top floor of the Astronomical Hall.

Caroline paused for a moment, then walked over as if nothing had happened. "Are you okay?"

Jeffrey was clearly stunned when he heard her voice. By the time he turned around, his expression had already adjusted. He pretended to look at Caroline in confusion. "Did something happen to me?"

Caroline gestured at the planetarium. "Aren\'t you sad?"

Jeffrey laughed. "You shouldn\'t be asking me about this. You should be asking our Principal Brown. After all, the Astronomical Hall\'s water pipe is an important asset of the school. He should be the one who\'s sad that it was burned."

Caroline shrugged. "I thought that since you like astronomy so much and come here often, you might be very disappointed and sad to see it suddenly burn."

Jeffrey lowered his eyes. "Of course I\'m disappointed and sad. After all, it did bring me a lot of happiness and joy."

When he was doing the experiment, he was indeed very happy. However, compared to being disappointed and sad, he was obviously more angry.

But there was no need to tell Caroline about this. "But I was already mentally prepared. No matter how good this place is, it doesn\'t belong to me. That\'s probably the reason. After knowing that it was burned, I was indeed disappointed for a while, but I quickly let it go."

"What about you?" he asked. "You also lost a good place to take a nap. Do you regret it?"

Caroline replied, "Of course I have regrets. After all, it\'s not easy to find another place as peaceful as this in Alexandria College."

At this moment, the first bell rang. Caroline patted his shoulder. "I have to go to class first. What about you? Do you want to go with me?"

Jeffrey was in a terrible mood. He was already trying his best to control himself by maintaining a calm expression, so he didn\'t have much energy to deal with Caroline for the time being, so he found an excuse to refuse.

With one less person watching her, Caroline was relieved, so she was naturally happy to see it happen. She turned around and left.

Jeffrey\'s gaze once again fell on the top floor of the Astronomical Hall.

Thanks to his grandfather\'s help, the matter was suppressed. As someone who often entered the planetarium and used the observation room on the top floor, he did not need to be investigated.

Jeffrey knew very well that his grandfather must have paid a heavy price inside. He felt both guilty and hateful.

If he had been a little more careful, would there have been no fire, and the matter would not have been exposed? Would he have been able to continue hiding here and complete his experiment?

It was a rare major breakthrough, but now his plan was suddenly cut off. In the following period of time, he would probably be watched by the people sent by his grandfather, so he probably wouldn\'t be able to do anything for the time being.

Then, he thought of his grandfather\'s words this morning, and his mood became a little depressed and incomprehensible. Was what he had done really unacceptable to the world? Did he really do something wrong?

Jeffrey didn\'t want to admit this. If he did, it would mean that his two years of hard work had been in vain. If he admitted it, it would mean that all his persistence had been wrong. If he admitted it, it would mean that his path to entering the army through this method would be cut off…
