Walkertown is one of the few places around Allen that still has a rural feel.

People outside the city of Alen have always wondered why it has not developed rapidly with the city, but only residents born and raised in Alen know that this is more than just a town to them.

Here is their past.

In the past 50 years, the development speed of Yal'an has been so fast that it is suffocating and can make people forget many things. For example, Yal'an City was once an ordinary place. Not everywhere was full of progress and economy. Maybe

It's not that civilized, but it makes people want to remember it involuntarily.

This town is the tombstone they erected for themselves to commemorate the long-dead old Aaron.

Many old people know the significance of this village to the city of Yalen.

But they don't know what kind of dark secrets are hidden here, nor do they know that this is one of the reasons for Aaron's rapid development in the past 50 years.

Latona dressed up and walked into an ordinary bar.

She nodded to the bartender and walked behind the counter door.

Few of the elites of Allen City come to this peaceful town because they don't want to break the tranquility here, let alone bring the hustle and bustle of the city here.

This is the atmosphere created by the Forerunner Research Institute over the years, and it is obvious that this atmosphere is extremely conducive to them hiding themselves.

Latona followed the electric-driven teleportation device to the underground research institute.

"Ms. Latona."

"Miss."

"minister."

People passing by saluted her.

Although Garrett calls her his assistant, she is actually one of the few senior researchers at the institute with less power than Garrett.

But this is actually meaningless, because when a person's immediate boss is Garrett, whether you are a low-level employee or the head of a department, you are a expendable resource in Garrett's eyes.

No one has real power in this institute except Garrett.

Latona, who had just left the director's office, grabbed a researcher.

she asked:

"Where is the director?"

While asking the question, Latona was holding something tightly in her left hand.

"Madam, the director disappeared yesterday. As you know, no one can keep track of his whereabouts."

Latona shook her head. These ordinary researchers still knew something about Garrett's whereabouts, because you have to know where a person is in order to avoid him.

Latona walked to the personnel department:

"Retrieve the director's whereabouts."

"Ms. Latona, the director left the institute at 15:23 yesterday afternoon for some time."

If other institute directors want to go out, they have to find an excuse, but Garrett is an exception. Even if the people above obtain his action records, they will not be angry about it.

Because they know that if you need to let a madman do things for you, you have to make a certain degree of compromise.

According to the plan, if Latona confirmed that Garrett was in the institute, she would send a signal directly to Hevin, but it seemed that Mr. Garrett was out shopping.

Latona and Hevin had anticipated this possibility, so they had a backup plan.

Heven will watch all the entrances, and she will take this opportunity to find out the secret of Garrett's resurrection.

She had heard about this, about Garrett's past.

The ability to resurrect from the dead did not arise out of thin air. He was previously the director of another research institute, and in an accident, the entire members of the research institute, as well as his family, lost their lives.

He is the only survivor, although Latona feels that this title is not appropriate, because it seems that his sanity has stayed with his family in that place forever.

The ruins that no one knows about.

But Latona firmly believes, and there is evidence, that the building under her feet contains information about Garrett's previous research. If she can find that information, maybe Hevin can come up with an easy way to deal with him.

Already.

Latona looked around at the people coming and going. Most of them were doing their work expressionlessly, while the security personnel were on standby. Even if it was impossible for anyone to break into the institute, they did not relax their vigilance.

.

Because every time the research institute is noticed, it will be a terrible disaster. Precious information will be leaked, experimental organisms will escape, and countless excellent security personnel and researchers will die. For the Forerunner Research Institute, that will be a disaster.

Unbearable losses.

Such as this time.

Maybe today is the Day of Atonement.

Latona walked near Garrett's room.

As the head of the Research Department, Latona has full authority to enter this room, but she will leave records.

unless you have a valid reason

She took a look and saw that there were several security personnel patrolling the surrounding corridor.

Latona said:

"I applied to enter the director's private room because I have urgent news to report to the director and I need to investigate the information in his room to obtain his whereabouts."

The security personnel looked at each other and released the blockade of Garrett's room:

"Access granted, Ms. Latona."

She walked into the room.

The room is neat and clean, unlike a room where a middle-aged man lives alone. The reports on the bookshelf, the sets of clothes in the cabinet, and the girl's dolls on the table are all arranged in an orderly manner.

It's as if no one has ever touched these things.

Latona glanced at the closed door behind her and quietly came to the desk.

As far as she knew, Garrett would use some special devices to conduct experiments alone from time to time. If Latona's judgment was correct, it was probably related to his previous research.

He is still continuing his research.

Latona put on her gloves and quickly rummaged through the documents on her bookshelf. She only looked at each piece of paper for a second or two before letting go.

However, no matter how much Latona searched, she could not find any information related to his past research.

Also, he shouldn't be placed in too obvious a place.

Latona was about to continue searching when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Her left hand twitched slightly.
