The light cin through the door, and Austin entered Thompson's sight.

"you!"

Thompson widened his eyes, taken aback as he was not expecting someone to hide in the room.

"Professor Thompson, it's me,"

Austin whispered and put his finger to his lips, signaling Thompson to be quiet.He feared Rhea would hear them, even though she

had left a while ago.He knew he would be in deep sh*t if Rhea returned.

"Aus...tin?"

Fortunately, Thompson softened his voice, and it did not look like he wanted to make this a big issue.

"Professor Thompson, it's me!"

Austin repeated himself, but with a different tone and meaning this time.

"You..."

Thompson sighed as he looked outside before heading into the room, quickly closing and locking the door after him.

While he approached Austin, he asked, "Why are you here?"

Austin let out a bitter smile.

‘Why am | here? D*mn it! That's what I'd like to know as well! 1 heard something | shouldn't have!” Austin patted his chest and

finally remembered the item he was holding.

"It's this.l managed to create a medicine that could calm patients down.| chere to share the good news with you!"

He took a few steps to show he was telling the truth.

Upon hearing that, Thompson's eyes lit up, but when he reached for the test tube, he curled his fingers back, sighing.

‘So what if he succeeded? Everything is far from what | initially wanted, and it is only getting further.It's not even an exaggeration

to say it’s moving in the opposite direction"

"Professor Thompson, I'm sorry! | didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your conversation on purpose, but could you explain towhat

you two were talking about earlier? Why did you say it would harm other people? Aren't we doing this to save lives and make the

patients feel less pain? Why would it be harmful to them?"

Since Austin got caught, he might as well be direct about it since Thompson did not look like he intended to harm him.

It was a fact that Austin had heard their conversation, and there was no running away from that.

However, Thompson just turned his back to Austin and said nothing.

Seeing that, Austin asked again, "Professor Thompson, what is this research really for? Also, who is the superior you two

mentioned? Is he an investor? Even if he's an investor, he can’t request that we harm other people! How did Rhea have the guts to

talk to you like that? She was blatantly threatening you earlier!"

"Stay out of this and pretend you heard nothing."

Thompson waved his hand and used the other to hold the table, looking exhausted.

"lI would do that if | hadn’t heard the conversation, but | did, and | can’t pretend to know nothing now! Both of us graduated from

medical school, and no matter our specialization, we have the sgoal—to save lives! How can we do anything to harm the

people?"

Austin was emotional at this point.

"They...Did they threaten you with something?"

"That's not it."

Thompson still refused to face Austin.His back was bent, and he appeared to have aged so much over the past few weeks.

"Austin, stay out of this! You weren't here today, and | didn’t see you either.Listen to me! Head hand rest now.You can take a

break for the tbeing.There’s not much to do here these days," Thompson said.

He had his back to Austin the entire twhile his hands gripped the table tightly as if he would fall if he loosened his grip by the

slightest bit.

"Professor Thompson, let's report this to the cops!"

Austin suggested it out of the blue.
