Chapter 1523
He deliberately picked up a book from the side and fanned the aroma in Dylan's direction.
Unmoved, Dylan sat upright, his demeanor serious, and asked, "No clues from those international guys
yet?"
Walter gave up and rolled his eyes.
"Don't get your hopes up about them. For all we know, someone among them might have been
involved in the research facility's plans. Now that Forbidden Island has been exposed, every country is
playing innocent. If you ask me, the mole is among these nations. Such a vast island, for years, has
been supplying the facility with people, treating the natives like livestock. It's certain someone has been
protecting them."
The world is dirtier than one would imagine.
Years ago, human experimentation was unanimously condemned internationally, with everyone
criticizing such inhumane acts.
But experiments on humans yield the most accurate data.
Some countries may appear peaceful on the surface, but behind the scenes, they could be funding
these research facilities. From NôvelDrama.Org.
After all, if the experiments succeed, the findings become a powerful weapon in their hands, putting
them at least two decades ahead of other nations.
No one can resist such temptation, especially when it's just the lives of ordinary people at stake.
To them, ordinary people are less than ants.
Dylan lifted his hand to massage his temples, his head throbbing with pain.
"The Sanders, the Moore, and the Olson families are all investigating the research facility. There will be
leads."
Walter, resting his chin in one hand, looked at the untouched feast on the table.
"As long as we're looking, someone's working to stop us in the shadows. Plus, we don't even know
what kind of drugs have come out of that place. The people taken to the facility are the medical
geniuses of decades."
Dylan fell silent too.
One genius was enough to dazzle the world. With so many gathered in one place, whatever they came
up with could be legendary if it benefited humanity or a catastrophe if it was purely destructive.
Walter squinted and smiled, "Those people have been hiding in the shadows for years. Finding leads
on them won't be easy. We need to draw them out, and that's a job for your sister. Isn't K somehow
linked to the research facility?"
Luring them out is much better than searching blindly.
This also meant putting Maja in danger.
"No way!"
Dylan rejected the idea without a second thought. Maja had already lost weight and was still
recovering.
Walter shrugged, "Then, there's nothing we can do."
Dylan stood up, ready to leave.
"Aren't you going to eat something? You haven't eaten all day, have you?"
"I'm not hungry."
His reply was cool as he strode towards the door.
Walter chuckled. That guy was as stubborn as ever.
Maja had rested for a day when she was awakened in the middle of the night by footsteps in the
hospital corridor.
"What happened?"
"There's a bit of an anomaly. We're trying to stabilize him."
Maja's heart leaped into her throat.
Restless, she waited until five in the morning when the doctors finally came out.
"How is he?" Draмanоvеls.com
Her voice trembled.
The doctor removed his mask, "No need to worry, it's a normal reaction. He should wake up today."
She sighed in relief, looking through the glass window at the bed inside.
"Ms. Pennyfeather, you should get some rest."
