Although the main area of the institute is the experimental building and the exercise ground, there are also a few places for people to relax and entertain, after all, it is an internal closed management, and the technical researchers and low-level handymen inside cannot leave the institute at will, so it is natural to deal with their living needs.

Soon, Jiang Yan followed the positioning navigation to the leisure area and entered a lounge that resembled a café.

It was just time for afternoon tea, and as soon as Jiang Yan entered, he saw a large number of researchers in white coats and uniforms sitting in twos and threes, or talking in small voices, or quietly tasting tea, juice, coffee, desserts and other things, and some of them would hold a book or a volume of information paper in their hands and read carefully.

Of course, there is no alcohol here, and the waiters in the lounge will not serve it. After all, alcohol dulls the brain, and researchers who need to work by the mind generally don't touch alcohol.

After Jiang Yan came in, he casually glanced around and found the location of the target.

"Well, I found it...... Eh, who's that?"

......

Finn has always been very proud of himself because he has proud capital.

He has just turned twenty-four this year, but he has graduated from the Spiritual Guidance Department of the Imperial Academy with very good grades, and was directly favored by one of the top doctors in the Empire, and was admitted to the doctor's research institute to become a promising 'senior bachelor'.

As a cutting-edge talent in this industry, Finn is confident that one day he will be awarded the title of "Doctor", which represents the highest status of a technology researcher.

Of course, he has only obtained the title of "Bachelor" now, and he must first be promoted to "Technician" before he can truly pursue the position of "Doctor".

Even though it was difficult for others, Finn was confident, after all, he had always walked so confidently.

Moreover, the Panison family is more or less an aristocratic family, although the title of the family is not high in the circle of imperial nobles, but it is also a completely different class compared to the commoners, which ensures that as long as Finn can make achievements, then his promotion will always be easier than that of commoners.

If he really wants to get a doctorate in the future, there is still a lot of hope for him.

In this regard, even if the empire pursues the rule of supremacy of strength, the family background itself is also a part of 'strength', and the children of the nobility will inevitably have some privileges compared to the commoners.

Although the royal family deliberately weakened the power of some of the upper nobles who were so powerful that they might even threaten themselves, they were very tolerant of the lower nobles. After all, isn't the status advantage of the aristocracy the best motivation to motivate those outstanding talents from commoner backgrounds to strive to show their self-worth and climb up?

Today, Finn, who had just completed a small experiment, came to his favorite lounge to spend a happy afternoon tea time in order to relieve the fatigue accumulated from work.

'Alas...... It's a pity that I don't have enough permission now, otherwise it would be more interesting to go out to the bar. I miss the free and easy college life in the past. ’

Finn, who complained casually, pushed open the door of the lounge, with a humble smile on his face, and greeted the seniors who passed by.

After coming to the counter and expertly ordering himself a cup of coffee, Finn casually found a free table and sat down, then looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to him, before he took out a book from the pocket of his uniform and held it in his hand and read it with a serious face.

Looking at his serious look, others thought it was some important academic book, and many researchers of the older generation who knew Finn nodded when they saw this, and secretly sighed that the young man was really hardworking and serious.

"That looks like Finn Panison, right? ”

"What's wrong, you know him?"

"Hehe, you don't seem to know, he is the best one among the graduating bachelors who have been admitted this year, it seems that he is only twenty-four years old this year, and he has already obtained the title of "senior bachelor", and has been evaluated by some magazines as a genius new star in spiritual guidance!"

"What, I'm already an advanced bachelor at the age of twenty-four?! I think I've just gotten a junior bachelor when I'm the same age......

"Isn't it? Some of the entertainment magazines that interviewed Finn Panison even commented that he had a good chance of achieving the title of Technician before the age of thirty, becoming the youngest active Technician in the Empire!"

"yes, that's something to look forward to. Shall we say hello while we are in the past...... He's like he's reading a book?"

"Indeed, looking at the cover of the book, it seems to be an academic book, could it be self-study?"

"It's no wonder that to be able to become an advanced bachelor at such a young age, this hard-working and enterprising attitude is admirable. ”

As a result, Finn has become an image of a young, enthusiastic, humble and studious young man in the eyes of others.

Some people who had originally planned to come forward to talk to each other also dispelled their thoughts when they saw this, and planned to find another opportunity later, so as not to disturb the young bachelor's studies and make others unhappy.

However, they are actually wrong, and in fact, the truth of the matter is very subtle and very subtle from what these people imagine.

If someone gets closer and looks closely at Finn's eyes, they will find that what appears in the eyes of this excellent junior in their mouth is not a serious and hard-working color, but an intoxicated appearance that is conferred on the soul.

Finn, who maintained a serious expression on his face, seemed to be reciting something in his mouth, but if someone came close to him at this time and listened closely, they would realize that it was not serious at all.

"After a busy day, this is the best way to relax. ”

"Tsk, this one, so big, so round...... Oh, this one is even more powerful!"

"Wow...... Are people now so generous? Do they even dare to shoot at this scale?"

"But, I like it! hey, hey, hey......"

And so on, that tone, with that intoxicated look, basically a man knows what this thing is looking at.

I don't know how long it took, but Finn finally finished reading the 'academic book' at hand, and carefully closed the cover and put it back in his pocket.

"Whew...... It's enjoyable, it's worthy of my careful selection! This one is almost the same, and the next time I go out on vacation, I have to add some new goods, otherwise I'll be bored at that time. ”

Coming back to his senses, Finn looked at the timer in the lounge and saw that more than half an hour had passed. After drinking the coffee he ordered, he was about to get up and leave, but he suddenly noticed that most of the people in the lounge were looking at a certain location from time to time, consciously or unconsciously, as if there was something there that attracted them.

Finn, who was curious, also followed everyone's line of sight, and then was stunned.

In a secluded corner of the lounge, a petite figure was sitting alone at a table.

It was a girl who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, although her face was very young, but her facial features were upright and delicate, as lovely as a porcelain doll, her golden hair hung down her shoulders like a soft gauze, and her clear blue eyes like jewels revealed an innocent and pure aura.

The girl is now holding a snow-white plush rabbit doll in her hands, her white fingers unconsciously playing with the long ears of the rabbit doll, and her eyes are a little wandering and glancing out of the window of the lounge from time to time, obviously thinking about something.

The point is, there is no one else around her.

This girl looked like a pure fairy who had inadvertently fallen into the filthy world, even if she just sat there quietly, it naturally attracted the attention of everyone at the scene.

When he came back to his senses, Finn's eyes lit up, and a touch of surprise appeared in his eyes.

To be honest, Finn has seen a lot of women since he was a child, but he swears that this girl is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen, and her appearance and temperament are basically more attractive than many aristocratic ladies he has seen before!

It was a surprise to Finn to see such a lovely girl in such a place that even any man with a normal aesthetic could not find a single flaw.

The institute is no different from other places, and since Finn came in, most of the researchers he has seen are men, and even if there are a few female researchers, the level of appearance is basically not enough to make Finn interested.

For Finn, who is accustomed to the entertainment of the outside world, he would not have been able to endure life here for long if it weren't for the excellent treatment of the staff at this institute, the facilities are among the top in the empire, and the nature of the work is more convenient for Finn to achieve his dream of getting ahead.

Of course, every top research institute in the empire has a rule that once you join, you can't easily quit, which makes it too late for Finn to regret it.

Originally, Finn thought that he could only rely on some special 'academic books' to comfort his soul in the institute, but he never expected to meet such an amazing girl.

Finn, who came back to his senses from the surprise of the first time he saw the girl, immediately decided to go over and have a conversation.

Having made the decision, Finn immediately dressed up, especially carefully hiding his treasured 'academic books', and then smoothed his short hair that was neatly groomed. After thinking about it for a while, he reached into his arms again, took out an identity crystal card that represented his senior bachelor's title and was also the permission pass for the institute, and put it in the conspicuous pocket of his shirt.

Then, quietly, Finn checked his image with the help of the mirror reflection on the smooth and reflective glass walls of a lounge not far away.

Hmmm - perfect, really worthy of a handsome and charming me!

After narcissizing in her heart, Finn walked towards the girl with confidence.

As Finn acted, the rest of the lounge immediately noticed his movements and looked surprised, followed by a few younger people with even more annoyed faces, as if they were complaining about why they hadn't acted sooner.

Finn, who noticed their expressions, secretly sneered: Hmph, a group of cowards, you should take the initiative to summon up the courage to talk to you at this time!

No longer looking at the reaction of others, Finn went to the seat where the girl was, put on what he thought was the most attractive friendly smile, and asked softly, "This lovely little lady, you seem to be a little lonely, may I have the pleasure of listening to your troubles?"

“......”

After waiting for a long time, Finn felt that his smiling face was a little stiff, and the girl in front of him still didn't react, as if she hadn't heard him.

Instead of being discouraged, Finn raised his voice a little and repeated what he had just done.

However, the girl still sat quietly and did not react, and she did not even turn her head to look at Finn.

...... Failed to pick up a conversation?

It's okay if the other party refuses in person, Finn has already thought of several scenarios before he acted, but now, he seems to be directly ignored by the other party?

In this case, all those scheduled plans will not be useful!

Feeling the eyes of the other people in the lounge gradually begin to change, and many young men have even begun to secretly show mocking sneers, Finn suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Ahem...... coughed lightly to cover up, Finn tried to control his emotions, smiled again and asked the girl gently: "This little lady, you seem to be a little troubled, my name is Finn Panison, I am the third son of Viscount Panison's family, and I am also a senior bachelor. If you don't mind, can you let me dispel that worry for you?"

Now that the usual accosting was being ignored, Finn decided to take it a step and use his leverage to attract the other party.

When he hadn't graduated from the academy before, he used this trick, and basically had a success rate of at least seventy percent to succeed in the conversation.

According to Finn's observations, the girl was wearing the uniform of a student of the Imperial Capital National Elven Academy, and it was supposed to be a civilian student inside, because those noble students usually made some characteristic changes to their uniforms, such as embroidering the family crest and family crest that symbolized their respective families.

The girl had no such markings on her clothes, so Finn judged from experience that she was probably not a noble child.

Well, Finn thinks that showing her status as an aristocratic person, as well as being a young and promising senior bachelor, should be able to work against this kind of commoner girl.

“......”

However, it turned out that even so, the girl ignored him, and was not even interested in looking at him.

'Tsk, you don't give a reaction like this?, could it be that she really didn't notice me?' Finn thought to himself with some chagrin, 'Could it be, she's hearing-impaired?'

Although it was a bit narcissistic to think so, with Finn's usual self-confidence, he really didn't think that he would be completely ignored to such a point.

Just as Finn was about to do something, a voice suddenly came from behind him, interrupting his movements.

Moreover, the other party also made an action that made Finn a little angry.

I saw a black-haired boy come over, sat down opposite the girl's seat without a trace of politeness, as if Finn didn't exist, he also ignored Finn, who was close at hand, and said to the girl with a smile: "I'm sorry, Lily, I've kept you waiting."
