Ring…!
The shrill of the fire alarm rang through the hallways as the fire spread. Thick, black smoke filled up the entire Research Department as the research staff headed for safety.
The sprinklers quickly put a stop to the spreading fire, but many documents were ruined, and sparks were flying out of some computers and machines. The walls and ceiling were filled with black burn marks.
"What could have caused the fire?" wondered the heartbroken Research Director aloud as he looked at the ruins.
Security soon arrived to begin inspection.
"The fire started from the workshop!"
Luo Xuan - his entire body soaking wet, and his entire face black - was supported out by the guards. All his hair had been burnt off, including his eyebrows, and he looked just like a soy egg - or rather, a century egg.
Being able to react quickly, in addition to having a fire extinguisher nearby, saved him from further disfigurement.
