StarNovelChapter 1648
After returning to his senses, Edmund seemed to have relaxed a little.
However, he persisted.
"Dr.Stone.Those who chere are not ordinary people.You aren't a nobody either.Dr.Blanc mentioned before that we should focus
on beating the virus rather than other people's affairs.What we should do now is focus on doing our tasks well."
After a pause, he continued, "We corrected the mistake you previously made in the nick of time, so there were no irreparable
consequences.lt wasn't reported to the higher-ups as well. However, if there happens to be another..."
"No, no.There won't be a next time!"
Dashiell interjected and said smilingly, "I promise | won't make such a rookie mistake again! You're right, Dr.Morris.| shouldn't ask
so many questions.All right, time's almost up.l should get back to work!"
After he finished speaking, he retracted his arm and left.
Edmund looked at Dashiell walking away and shook his head helplessly before continuing along his path.

"How's everything going?"
Allow and hoarse voice sounded.
It was a voice he could recognize without seeing a face.
This voice was his nightmare.
It was a nightmare he could not wake up from.
That voice was the only thing ringing in his ears.
Raising his head slowly, he looked at the person standing on the chair.
The person was no taller than himself.
Mike's hands trembled as he humbly answered, "Everything is ready.You can leave any tyou want."
"Great! | can finally leave this ghost town tomorrow!"
The man opened his arms and laughed loudly.
The laughter echoed in the room, making the hairs on Mike's arms stand.
"Why aren't you smiling? Aren't you happy?! We're one step away from success! Once we relocate, our experiment will be
successful! By then, the whole world will obey my orders!"
The man had a strange look in his eyes as he clenched his fingers into a fist.
Mike lowered his gaze.
"I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but I'm just afraid things won't go as smoothly as we've planned."
"Huh?! Are you questioning me?!"
The man suddenly becangry as his eyes lit up in a fury.
"I'm not questioning you, but we are seriously short on workforce right now.On top of that, you know how the rumors are sounding
outside.I'm worried that..."
"What are you worried about?!"
The man interrupted Mike unhappily.

"Listen to yourself! Don't you see how chaotic the world is right now? This is our time! Soon, a group of people will die, while the
rest will be my slaves!"
Hearing this, Mike sighed.
"As far as | know, the virus is spreading very quickly, and the fatality rate is low.The whole world is trying to overcthis..."
"Huh?!"
The man suddenly grabbed Mike's collar.His stare through the mask almost burned holes into Mike's face.
"What are you trying to say?! Don't forget.Your son..."
"I know my son is in your hands, and I'm not trying to go against you.
We're on the steam.
If we succeed, | will reap the benefits as well.
Remember that | am a businessman, and my main goal is to make money.
"I know how much | can earn if this virus goes out of control, and we're the only ones in the world with the antidote."
After a pause, he continued, "But...what if someone made the antidote first?"
