Lin Xn went over the laboratory after she had left the classroom.

“Teacher, I had left some stationaries behind in the laboratory before,” said Lin Xi to the guard outside of the laboratory.

A teacher would never question the words of a good student and they let Lin Xi in right away.

Walking over to her own workstation, Lin Xi opened up the drawer.
There were, indeed, a few pens that she had left there as backup.
Lin Xi quickly put those inside of her backpack and, at the same time, grabbed a few additional electronic components and wires that they had been using for their experiment from the drawer.

There were these consumable accessories in almost every drawer but Lin Xi didn’t need too many of them.

She visited the teacher’s lounge next.

Song Kexin had already taken a stretch of time off for Lin Xi; as such, Lin Xi only had to talk to them quickly before they let her walked out of the school early.

Lin Xi stopped the chauffeur when they drove past a shop.

“What’s the matter, Miss?”

“I need to go buy some stuff that I need to bring with me.”

The chauffeur thought about it for a little bit and pulled over.
Lin Xi walked inside the shop, grabbed what she needed, and also grabbed some snacks to mix in with them, before she returned to the car.

Once they have arrived home, Song Kexin called the bodyguard over to speak with him privately.
She asked him, “We have called a long time ago, what took so long to come home?”

Song Kexin worried that Lin Xi would notice that something was off and refused to go.

“Madam, Miss stopped on the way to pick up some stuff from the shopping center.”

“What did she buy?”

“USB battery pack, an electric fan, some skincare products, chips and other snacks.
She also went over the pharmacy and got herself some insect repellent, cold medicines, antiseptic medications and… and a few stuffed animals.

Hearing that from the bodyguard, Song Kexin’s eyes flickered a little: Judging from what Lin Xi had purchased, she was getting ready to be staying for a while in the village.

Song Kexin felt relieved now.

“Okay, I got it.
You can go.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Lin Xi, on the other hand, had not left her room since she walked inside of it.

Lin Xi, who had spent the entire time in her room, did not rouse any suspicion from the others.

Inside of her room and in front of Lin Xi laid crude reflux device that she had made out of cans and jars that she was able to collect from the kitchen.
After one last careful check up on them, Lin Xi quickly added crushed red peppers and alcohol in them and plugged the device in.

The fluid began to boil shortly and continued the cycles of evaporation and re-solidifying.

It was a long process.

Lin Xi stared at it with her chin on her palm for a little while before she pulled out the USB battery pack and the electronic components and wires that she had hide in her backpack.

With a screwdriver and a utility knife, she opened up the battery pack.
The design inside was even simpler than Lin Xi had imagined.

She studied it for a little while and was quickly able to locate the safety current limiting device.
She snipped the cord to the safety device and removed the output end of the battery end.

Lin Xi then took apart the few stuff animals that could make noise and, sure enough, found the magnets that she was looking for inside of their speakers.

Using her calculation, Lin Xi wrapped some wire around the magnet a few times before connecting them.

She was able to complete a minor transformer quickly.

Lin Xi then connected the transformer to the output end of the battery back and tucked the ends of the two wires onto both sides of the USB’s interphase end.

Once she had finished with all these, she closed up the battery pack and brought it back to its original state.

Pressing down the power switch of the battery pack, an electric current between the ends of the two wires could be seen with naked eyes.

The electric current wasn’t enough to kill someone, but it was enough to bring down an adult.

Lin Xi smiled at her homemade “taser”.

She then looked over at the simple reflux device on the other side.

Lin Xi replaced the iced sprite that had already turned warm with a can of iced cola, added more alcohol inside of it, and repeated her steps earlier.

She repeated that four times before she was able to obtain a very small amount of concentrated hot pepper solution.
It wasn’t as pure as she had imagined and had a lot of impurities inside but it was the best she could do.

Removing all of the complicated cans and jars, Lin Xi took a whiff and a pungent odor went straight to her head.

“This should do.”

Lin Xi wiped away the tears that was induced by the odor and waited until the solution cooled down before she carefully poured them into the pressurized spray bottle that she had purchased earlier from the shop.

She looked at it left and right and finally placed the toner label from a free gift from the shop on the spray bottle.

Perfect!

Lin Xi packed the items into her bag.

She hesitated for a little bit and finally took out her utility knife and scissors again.

She cut a small opening at a subtle location on her backpack and shoved inside of it a few banknotes.

She checked it multiple times and finally wrapped it up after she was certain that she had not missed anything.
