Chapter 404 Labelled

One of the facility’s personnel went to check the electrical box and found that a wire had been cut, but all it took

was some knocking and twiddling for the power to resume again.

When they went in, they noticed that the place was still as neat and tidy as it was before they left. The only

difference was that all the reports they had made before had disappeared.

Not only that, even the data on the computer had been erased.

The data on the computer were all encrypted. It was impossible to gain access to the file without typing in a

password.

The theft of data at the research centre was no laughing matter.

Its severity even alerted the SWAT team.

Colton, too, hurried over after he heard the news. He was let in as the Gardner Family was an investor of the entire

research base.

Colton stood beside Nicole, and the people beside them all spotted a solemn look on their faces. They couldn’t

believe that the result of the research they had been conducting for over a month had been stolen just like that.

The theft would lead to serious consequences. They would have to waste at least another month if they were to

start from scratch.

“What is the matter?” Colton asked in a soft voice.

Nicole lowered her eyes and frowned. She seemed to be thinking about something before she eventually answered,

“Someone must have come in and cleared all the data. They even took away some handwritten materials.”

After hearing her words, Colton couldn’t help but let out a frown of his own. He then raised his eyebrows and his

eyes swept across the crowd. Thoughtfully, he reached out and brought Nicole out of the room with him.

Instead of resisting, she quietly went out with him.

It was only after they left the crowd that he asked, “Is it Pierre Toth?”

Nicole had already guessed who was the culprit before Colton even asked her. She blinked a few times, and only

nodded after making sure there was no one else around them.

“That is my guess as well. But he hasn’t given himself away yet. We will plan the next step when he does.”

Even though Nicole was sure of herself, Colton couldn’t help but worry. “How sure are you about this?” he asked.

She looked up at him and beamed confidently, stretching out her hands to the side. “100%.”

He slightly curled the corners of his lips as he looked at the woman in front of him and chuckled. She was always so

confident, as expected of the woman he fell for.

“Alright, but you can tell me if there is anything you can’t do by yourself. I am willing to lend a helping hand, Miss

Nicole.”

The situation could no longer be taken for granted because the data was stolen and intentionally deleted.

All the staff of the medical base were all detained in the research institute. To make matters worse, even the SWAT

team had started their investigation on the issue.

The most likely suspect now was Nicole, as she was the only one left in the laboratory before it happened.

However, Nicole wasn’t at all surprised to find herself being labelled as the culprit. She only laid it bare by telling

them, “It wasn’t me. Furthermore, I have no use for this information.”

The investigation reached a dead end because of how there were no surveillance records in the research institute

when the theft happened as the power supply was cut off.

The last video from the surveillance camera was the one where Nicole left the door.

This research was extremely important, and yet the people who were sent here hadn’t been successful at finding

the key information. The only way to the research institute was blocked by a tree, and the last person to leave and

re-enter after the power outage was Nicole.

It only took about a minute after she left for the power outage to happen.

Later, due to the pressure from upper management, Nicole had to be detained as a suspect.

She didn’t resist them either. She didn’t even say a word to stop them when they brought her straight to jail.

Nicole had become famous overnight, and was supposed to have a bright future ahead after the operation she

conducted on Benedict. However, her being charged with data theft had immediately sent the public into a frenzy

as anger consumed them.
