It was a hot, sunny afternoon when Lily strode into the laboratory building with a hazmat suit on. She appeared to be in a hurry and
looked like she was swamped.
The hallway was silent, with no one in sight, which she had expected. Usually, most working areas would be packed with people
during the day and turned dead silent at night.
However, Lily noticed this place was the opposite after observing it for the last two days. Midnight was when this place would be
full of people and was its busiest time, while no one would be around during the day.
This place was the institute’s rightful property and a legitimate place of business. They could operate normally, but Lily wondered if
they worked late at night because they were accustomed to doing things at night or could only do the experiments during that
period.
Anyhow, this place worked the opposite way as the other working areas. Since that was the case, Lily had to execute her plan
during the day. Nonetheless, the different working hours made it more convenient for her.
She did not need to stay up late, nor did she need to take extra precautionary steps. Getting around during her regular working
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthours sufficed.
Besides those working in their solo laboratories, few were taking naps. The hallway was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
Lily held her breath and entered the innermost area of the institute. As Mike brought her here before, her iris and fingerprint
scanning went smoothly. Now, she wanted to find the top secrets of this research.
She had looked through the information given to her the other day and found it incomplete. Lily had also expected that because
the institute was wary of her, even though they needed her talent.
When she saw the giant, mutated wilfordi root the other day, she looked calm outside when she was, in fact, astonished.
It was not that she had not seen such a thing in movies before. For instance, she would often see it in movies depicting the end of
the world, terrible levels of pollution due to humans, or those revolving around scientific research, which would then fall upon the
human race.
However, she never thought she would see such a thing in real life. Besides the wilfordi root, she wondered if they had
experimented on other poisonous plants, animals, or even humans.
After all, the plague happened previously, while Cameron, Austin, Edward, and maybe even other innocent people were victims of
their experiments. Lily knew she had to eradicate this institute. Otherwise, they would bring irreversible destruction to the world.
She intended to start by looking into the wilfordi root. First, she had to find out how harmful it was and if there were any changes to
its poisonous properties. Then it would be best if she could hack into their database and obtain firsthand information about the
research.
She had been observing this place and knew where all the surveillance cameras and monitoring systems were. As for the security
system, she was an expert in that. Managing all this was not a problem for her.
As for the other factors, such as hidden cameras and monitoring systems, she had no way to be sure about that. However, time
was not on her side, and she could no longer delay things. By the tshe gathered that information, the institute might have run
out of patience.
It was strange how no one was in this research center now. Only the machines were running, constantly creating beeping sounds.
To be safe, Lily headed to the working space first and pretended to organize the documents as she scanned her surroundings
through her peripheral vision.
Sof the seats had pens and notebooks, which meant people were occupying them before this, and they might be back soon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could not miss this golden opportunity. Even if she got caught, she could always just say she was there to look for some
information.
With that, she bent her back and started to type away on the keyboard.
The “boss” gave her the secret key and login access, but she realized there were minimal things she could view once she had
logged into the system. Besides keying in and checking information, she could do nothing else.
As for the top secrets, they were not on this computer. Lily tried to key in Mike's credentials, but it showed that she had entered
the wrong details.
Frowning, she turned and headed toward the wilfordi root, deep in thought. The plant was in a giant glass jar like a living thing. She
even felt like the plant was waving at her.
Unable to help herself, she walked over to it.
“] wouldn't do that if | were you.” Just as she was about to touch it, a voice sounded. It was deep, but it still frightened her in this
silent space.
