In this light blue world, a figure suddenly appeared, standing there alone in their pristine white clothes and jet black hair, a striking and beautiful sight.
Selena was stunned in her tracks.
The group of people who had walked in behind her were also frozen in place.
"Being so clever as to find your way here, you must be my kid," the man said, his eyes curving as he extended a hand towards the door. "Come to Dad."
Selena met the man's deep, gentle gaze and her heart fluttered with a special kind of emotion. Without thinking, she walked towards him.
But that hand merely passed through her body, unable to touch her face.
Selena froze.
It was only then that she suddenly realized that the Callum in front of her was nothing more than a faint illusion.
Everything around her was just a kind of holographic projection.
It was all fake.
But it was a stunningly realistic fake.
This was obviously the gift that the father had carefully prepared for his daughter.
Selena looked at the man smiling at her and her eyes became a bit misty. She murmured softly, "Dad."
As if he knew she would call him Dad, Callum's smile widened and his hand came to rest accurately on her hair. "Being able to crack all the passwords means you've already understood all the information in the library. Next, you need to learn how to do surgery. Come, let Dad teach you how to experiment--"
Just as he was saying this, a sudden "bang" echoed through the quiet space, and Callum's figure suddenly disappeared.
Not only did he disappear, but the huge laboratory also vanished with him.
The entire space was plunged into a dead, silent darkness.
Selena's eyes suddenly widened and she rushed towards the direction of the experiment table, grabbing something in her hand.
And in that instant, she clearly felt as if there was someone else rushing towards the experiment table from the other side.
But that person was a step too slow.
The thing had already been grabbed by Selena.
The sudden darkness scared many people into screaming.
Leia guarded Selena's side, preventing anyone from bumping into her. Looking at the chaotic scene, she threw out the Maneki Neko in her hand and pressed the switch on the wall.
With a "pop" sound, the lights came on brightly. Selena's dark eyes scanned the room, taking in the positions of everyone present.
Principal Chow and his entourage were standing at the door, with the laboratory members in front of them.
The Cooke twins were standing behind Selena, and she was certain that they hadn't moved just now. Cameron and Hamish were standing opposite her, with Brian behind Cameron. Penelope seemed afraid and was holding onto Cameron tightly, her face turning pale.
It seemed like there was no problem.
Selena lowered her eyelashes to cover the cold darkness in her eyes.
"What's going on? Did the power go out suddenly?"
"How come everything just disappeared?"
As the group looked around, a dry voice suddenly sounded, "I'm sorry, I accidentally bumped into the power supply just now."
