In the laboratory, only Yu Chen, Mikoto Misumi, and the Nakado Department were left. Because it was personal work, after the researchers had finished their tasks, Yu Chen let them leave and did not insist they stay to work overtime because of his presence.
"It's no use! The water is full of garbage, making it impossible to identify the sea urchin larvae!" Mikoto Misumi stretched, easing the fatigue from maintaining the same position for a long time and couldn't help but voice her complaint.
"Damn it, it's all trash!" The member from the Nakado Department also complained, but even though he was cursing, Yu Chen didn't think he was swearing at anyone—it seemed to be just a habit.
Seeing how they were struggling, Yu Chen too felt concern. He asked Mikoto Misumi, "Dr. Misumi, are you having trouble with the analysis? If you need any help, just ask. We have a pretty complete set of equipment here, so feel free to use whatever you need."
