"As a sample, as a life form, as a human being, your existence has long been an indelible mark on my life..."

Upon seeing the last sentence, Tesla flew into a rage, as if he had lost his mind, and punched the air several times.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! This is definitely a deliberate provocation, they definitely knew I would see it too!"

Tesla reiterated that nothing other than studying life is allowed to happen here.

"Of course... I only met her yesterday..." Joyce's explanation, with her face flushed, seemed even less convincing.

Tesla's gaze is chilling, as if it could shoot out a death ray at any moment.

"Fine, I'll let you off the hook for now. But if you dare to have any other ideas, I'll castrate you first!"

Schrödinger looked at Einstein with amusement and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be the first to confess, Einstein. I thought it would be Joyce."

"That's only because I knew Dr. Tesla would definitely see this card, so I wrote it on purpose." Einstein's expression was calm, but his fingers holding the coffee were trembling slightly.

"Dr. Tesla is so excited, President. Does he like you?" Ryoma joked.

Joyce didn't reply, but shook her head slightly and looked at Raiden Ryoma with sympathy.

Raiden Ryoma instantly had a bad feeling.

"Thunder! Lightning! Dragon! Horse!"

An angry voice, exactly the same as in the web series, rang out.

Raiden Ryoma Mechanical turned its head and saw Tesla, with its twin ponytails floating upwards in a way that defied the laws of physics, its body emitting black smoke.

"Dr. Tesla, would you believe me if I said I was joking?"

"You!!!"

After reading the last part of the card with displeasure, an unhappy Tesla finally seemed to remember something and introduced himself to Joyce.

"As for self-introduction, Nikola Tesla, just call me Tesla."

Tesla grabbed Joyce's shirt in an annoyed manner.

"Let's go, they're already in the living room."

After experiencing Tesla's latest Iron Fist, Raiden Ryoma, clutching his throbbing head, sat obediently next to Joyce, noticing Joyce's sympathetic gaze.

"Stop looking!" Tesla said irritably as he sat down next to Einstein.

"So angry, did the experiment fail again?" Schrödinger asked.

Edison gave a sheepish smile.

"Don't even mention it, when we got to the crucial moment, the lighting system that Edison had designed actually broke down." Tesla pouted angrily.

Edison, however, showed no embarrassment. Instead, he pondered, "There's nothing wrong with my lighting system design, but I overlooked the fact that the wiring could be chewed through by rats..."

Schrödinger yawned.

Welt Joyce, being dragged down the stairs amidst the banter between Tesla and Einstein, landed his first job as a lab assistant.

The assistant's task was very simple: to keep the two PhDs happy and to help them decide where to go for fun.

After getting the job, Joyce was kicked out of Tesla's house, ostensibly to get to know his surroundings.

Wandering aimlessly, Joyce came to the library and decided to look up some information first.

At the library, Joyce met a frivolous man in a striped short-sleeved shirt and gold-rimmed glasses; he was the librarian.

"Tesla is absolutely right." Edison smiled like an aunt, finding both Tesla and Einstein, as well as Joyce and Einstein, very appealing.

In the web series, Tesla says, "You two are really going at it together, are you a long-lost couple?"

This led the PhDs at Anti-Entropy to once again focus their attention on Einstein and Joyce.

Einstein sipped his coffee, his fingers trembling slightly.

Joyce stared intently at the projection, as if a fairy on the screen was attracting him, completely oblivious to the gazes of others.

Seeing Joyce like this, all the women sighed for Einstein.

The Queen of Chuunibyou's live stream.

"That blond hair, that flippant tone, this guy couldn't be..."

"It's you, Bishop Otto!"

"I don't think he's quite like Otto. As for why, I just feel this man's demeanor doesn't match Otto's."

"Your Queen, what do you think?"

"Your Queen, what do you think?"

Humans are inherently repeaters. When the first comment asked Sirin for her opinion, almost every viewer in the live stream copied it, filling the screen with comments asking Sirin.

"???" Sirin looked bewildered. She was eating potato chips and watching TV when she was suddenly asked a question. After thinking for a moment, she said, "As far as I know, I know nothing."

"Invincible!"

"Hearing Her Queen's words is like hearing a profound truth."

"6!"

According to the relevant information I consulted, Joyce had just returned to the villa.

Einstein deliberately kept a cold expression and, knowing full well that Joyce wouldn't have time to finish investigating the Kensington district, deliberately brought up the question of where to have lunch.

Joyce apologized immediately because she couldn't answer, and lowered her head in frustration.

"What, am I not faking an accident? How could you possibly have time to run all over Kensington?"

Einstein's pitying gaze mocked the fool he had ridiculed.

Einstein took off his white lab coat, put on a trench coat, and took Joyce out the door.

In an Italian restaurant, Einstein displayed the qualities of a girl his age to Joyce, and Joyce unintentionally called Einstein "Ein" for the first time.

"Damn sweetness!"

"I really love this kind of sweet storyline, give us more, give us more!"

"Don't forget, this is a game called Honkai 3rd. The sweeter it is in the beginning, the more heartbreaking it will be later."

It was only then that Sirin realized that Joyce had already died when the storyline officially began. Her face turned pale, and the smile that had been on her face because of Joyce's interaction with Einstein slowly disappeared.

Kiana raised the same question in the adjacent dormitory area.

"How sad would Dr. Einstein be if Joyce died?"

Kiana's sudden outburst completely disrupted the warm atmosphere.

Little Knowledge was speechless.

"Kiana, are you really going to pour cold water on us when we're getting really into it?"

"No." Kiana shook her head. "I just don't want the story to turn into something like Himeko- sensei's later episodes."

The atmosphere grew even colder.

Their expressions changed from smiling to indifferent, and then to sad.

The reason was simply because of two sentences Kiana.

Chapter 133 Will Tesla take off his clothes when he's drunk?

Returning from an Italian restaurant called Coffee Concerto, Einstein and Joyce unexpectedly spotted the blond librarian at the entrance to their laboratory.

"Ah, dear Einstein! You're back!"

For some reason, Joyce felt a slight sense of disgust as she watched this person wave to the girl so familiarly.

"What is it, Finn?" Einstein did not address the librarian by name.

The librarian took a letter from a folder and handed it to Einstein.

After Einstein received it, the person in the library emphasized that the contents of the letter would definitely interest her.

Einstein stopped fumbling for his keys in his pocket, handed the letter to Joyce, and asked him to open it.

After Joyce took it apart.

It was a letter sent by Schrödinger.

The letter was written in a very relaxed tone and contained some incomprehensible scribbles.

To Joyce's surprise, Einstein's expression was serious. He told the Finns to make arrangements immediately, that they should take the next available flight to Bielins, and even asked Joyce to go upstairs and wake the still-sleeping Tesla.

"Finally, we're getting into the main storyline." Although Edison also enjoyed watching the interactions between Einstein and Joyce, for a web series, these storylines were still too bland.

"Did I write this letter?" Schrödinger tugged at his Kitty hat and muttered to himself, "It doesn't feel like my tone."

"Schrödinger, didn't you realize? This letter is ostensibly a smokescreen, but its true purpose is probably to hide the name Aida." While making himself a cup of coffee, Einstein also took out his treasured coffee beans and brewed several more cups.

"Aida? Who's that?" Joyce racked his brains trying to recall if the name existed in Anti-Entropy, but after thinking for a long time, he realized that he had never heard of the name before.

"I don't know him. He's probably a Schicksal one, or he's the original creator." Tesla shook her head, her face scrunched up, and refused Einstein's coffee, pulling a bottle of beer from under her skirt.

"Dr. Tesla, drinking alcohol is bad for your health," Einstein warned.

"Really? Well, that's better than drinking coffee which is bad for your brain." Tesla used his teeth to open the beer bottle cap.

"I didn't expect you to be so drunk that you were talking nonsense before you even started drinking."

"You have a messy head of hair!"

Tesla hadn't even had a sip of his beer before Edison confiscated it.

Joyce went upstairs to wake Tesla, only to find that Tesla was not asleep at all. After informing her of Einstein's decision, the group got into the Finn's Volkswagen Beetle.

The driver was Finnish, Joyce sat in the passenger seat.

In the back row, Einstein, with his hands propped up, watched with great interest as Dr. Tesla was applying his makeup.

Just then, Einstein suddenly handed Joyce a file folder.

Joyce opened the form and found it contained a small booklet, which also included her work permit and some documents for immigration guarantees.

"Welt Joyce?" Joyce murmured as he looked at the name printed on his passport, a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Tesla explained the origin of the name to him. Then, she suddenly asked the Finn, "Finnish man, what about your son?"

"It's alright, I've already called the school. This isn't the first time Joachim has encountered something like this, there won't be any problems." The Finn seemed quite nonchalant.

From their conversation, we learn that the Finn's wife was named Heinrich Young, that Tesla liked to bother Einstein when he was bored, and that Tesla would take off his clothes when he was drunk.

"Nonsense!" Noticing the gazes of the crowd, Tesla felt a little guilty. His eyes darted around, his face flushed, and he tried to appear tough. "I never get drunk, and I would never take... take off my clothes!"

"Really? Then who was it that stripped naked and lay on my bed last time?" Edison asked with a smile.

"Dr. Tesla, do you need me to help you recall? Around the 4th of last month..."

Before Einstein could finish speaking, Tesla covered his mouth and whispered, "Hey, you messy-haired guy, give me some face!"

Einstein's unwavering eyes met Tesla's pleading gaze, and he nodded.

As Joyce watched their interaction, coupled with Tesla's line "I love you to death" from the web series, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

"Edison, I never get drunk, never!" Tesla said, enunciating each word clearly, seemingly trying to force Edison to admit it with his imposing presence.

She succeeded, but she wasn't really successful.

"Yes, yes, Tesla never gets drunk." Edison did admit it, but his tone was like coaxing a child, full of affection.

"Joachim?" Schrödinger, who hadn't joined their conversation, tugged at the drawstring of her Kitty hat. The name sounded familiar, but she just couldn't remember where she'd heard it before.

"Yang's nickname," Joyce said.

"Oh right," Schrödinger remembered.

"So this Finn is Yang's father in the story?"

"It should be, after all, we're not blood brothers in the story, he's just my successor."

"It's over, it's over, time to wait for the new week."

"It's too short! When will the movie be released? I want to see the main story!"
