The Rebirth Of SOPHIA GREEN - Chapter 250

In the lab, Sophia was still deep in her experiments, unaware that it was completely dark.

Suddenly, she smelled a burning smell, which seemed to have come from a laboratory outside, and hurried over.

As soon as she entered the laboratory, she froze.

Flames were blazing on the table. There were many chemicals in the lab that could explode at any time.

On that table were some important information, many were paper, and there was no backup. How did they catch fire?

As soon as she saw the fire, she felt the blood freeze all over her body. She couldn’t think, neither did he dare to approach.

It took her awhile before she thought of looking for a fire extinguisher.

There were a lot of fire extinguishers in the lab for fires. Sophia found the nearest one and unplugged it. Holding the nozzle in one hand and the pressure knob in the other, she sprayed it into the burning area.

But the fire extinguisher was unresponsive and unusable.

She found another, but it was still unusable. This scene… It was like a repeat of what she had suffered.

The difference was that the door was open, and she could escape through it if she wanted to.

But what about these papers if she was gone?

As the fire grew, Sophia felt that her feet are getting heavier and heavier. She knew she could do nothing but run away. Otherwise, it would be too late.

With a sigh, she went out of the laboratory and called the fire department.

She suspected Normand did it. He had wandered around the lab for a long time in the afternoon. Perhaps he was angry and wanted revenge. The modus opera he used was very similar to the lab fire. He might have used some kind of spontaneous combustion device that would have burned at a certain time.

Afraid to see the fire, she backed away and waited for the firemen.

Suddenly, she saw a man rush into the sea of fire, running and shouting, “Sophia, are you there?”

Sophia recognized him. It was from Albert.

He ran inside because he thought she was in a fire, did he?

Sophia hurriedly followed, shouting, “Come out! I’m outside!”

However, the sirens of the roaring fire engine drowned out her voice, which Albert did not hear, rushing inexorably into the inferno.

By this time, the firefighters had stepped out of the car, and a firefighter asked Sophia, “Is there anyone inside?”

Sophia was so worried that she cried, “Yeah… Save him! I’ll go with you to save him!”

The fireman was about to rush in to save Albert when he came out himself. As soon as he saw Sophia, he rushed up and held her tightly.

“I thought…” He was hoarse, “I lost you again.”

Sophia started for a moment, then slowly smiled and put out her arms around him.

The fireman complained, “It’s on fire, you know? Shouldn’t you have gone in there? Fortunately, you’re all right. Once there’s a fire, no matter what’s inside, the first thing you should do is run, understand?”

Albert apologized at once, “Sorry. I know I was wrong. I won’t do this next time.”

The fireman smiled, “Next time? You want another time? Once is enough. Prevention is the most important. Laboratory fires are quite common. A spark can start a big fire. So be sure to take precautions. I remember a fire broke out in the laboratory of Glinton University more than half a year ago, which was much more serious!”

Sophia took Albert away and asked in concern, “Are you hurt?”

Albert touched his head, “My hair seems a little burnt… Am I not handsome?”

Sophia looked him over from head to toe and was relieved only after making sure he wasn’t hurt. “Why did you go in there? The fire is so big, what if you can’t come out?” She said.

Albert smiled, “It’s all right. I ran fast. I went in and looked around and didn’t see you. I thought you should have come out and just I came out.”

“You fool!” Sophia sighed.

Albert’s face was gray and dirty, and his clothes were burned in places. Sophia took a tissue from her pocket and reached out to help him dust his face.

When her finger touched his skin, she felt hot, and maybe it was because he just came out of the fire.

She smiled, “You’re cooler today than usual! You’re very handsome!”

Albert scratched his head. “This haircut?”

***

It was late when Sophia and Albert returned home. Kate and Andy had got back from the movie.

“Did you eat?” Kate asked.

Sophia shook her head, “Not yet. I just got back from work.”

Daniel was surprised. “Pearson sent food for you, did he? Didn’t you eat?”

“He lost it on the way,” Sophia said.

She saw the food. He had been carrying it out of the car, but when he saw the fire, he just put the lunch box away.

“He’s so unreliable,” said Daniel.

He kind of did not want such a brother-in-law, though Albert cooked well.

“Then I’ll get you something to eat,” Kate said and walked to the kitchen, “It’s late. How about I make you some porridge?”

“All right,” Sophia nodded.

Kate went to the kitchen to cook, and Sophia went to take a shower. For fear that the family would worry for her, she didn’t tell them about tonight.

But she didn’t expect that Albert had known she was coming back to life.

Was that why he cared about her all the time?

After the bath, she heard some noise in the kitchen. She hurried over and saw the porridge overflowing with the sound of “Sizzle…” for cooking too long.

She went over to remove the lid a little and turned down the heat to allow the porridge to cook slowly.

Not until she got out of the kitchen, she suddenly realized that she was not afraid of the flames anymore.

Just then, Kate came out of the room and shouted, “Oh, god! My porridge! I was just talking and forgot about it. Is it overflowing?”

“It’s all right. I’m taking care of it,” Sophia said.

Kate was surprised, “You don’t like to get close to the kitchen, do you?”

Sophia smiled, “It’s all right. I’m fine.”

Later she had some porridge and then went to bed.

She was exhausted by the incident.. With such a big loss to the laboratory, the new energy project would be delayed.
