Chapter 1449
'What are you saying?" "All I'm saying is, why did you suddenly think these things might be related? Is
there a reason behind it?" With his explanation, everything Dominic said suddenly made sense.
'That's right. Why do I feel like these things are connected? There must be a common denominator that
I’ve yet to think of.'
"The laboratory research, why do they want to fuse highly toxic medicinal herbs and raw materials so
people could inhale them silently and unconsciously?" Lily began to analyze, thinking out loud.
"As for the plague in Burnwken, I heard that the employees had unknowingly inhaled poison. They
couldn't find the source of transmission, and it spread very quickly. As for Tasia..."
After a pause, Lily continued, "Although there's no connection between the two, Tasia was also

the poison. It’s mixed with various herbs, and it takes time. It's also a complicated process."
Dominic listened carefully and nodded. "So, the common denominator is that the people have been
getting poisoned without their knowledge?"
"Yes!" Lily slapped her thigh. This was an epiphany. No wonder she felt that these things were
coincidental. Although they seemed unrelated on the surface, they were inextricably linked.
"Then where do you think the source of the problem is?" Dominic continued to ask.
"The lab," Lily answered. This time, there was no hesitation in her tone and a firm look in her eyes.
The older man raised his eyebrows. "Why didn't you think it stems from your friend? According to you,
she has been poisoned for years. It should be before the project started."
"It may seem so on the surface because Tasia's incident would have started the earliest, but as I said
just now, I could trace the poisoning back to the source, unlike the lab research and the plague in
Burnwken.
"With that said, if what is happening to Tasia is considered the source, one would say that it’s the most
preliminary form of research or experiment. Then once the lab project gets kickstarted, everything is
brought to a bigger scale." Lily felt a chill ran down her spine when she said that.
She had always been skeptical about the research done in the laboratory before because she did not
know what they would do with the results. She initially thought it was an excellent idea. A perfect fusion
of medicinal herbs and fragrances would be a giant leap forward in both industries to help alleviate and
improve patients' health.
Later, she realized the project was more complex than it seemed. Then she began to doubt their
motives. However, she thought it was to create a product that would harm someone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that she had connected the dots, she realized that they were not targeting someone but everyone
instead.
If the plague in Burnwken could be related to the research in the laboratory, it would pose a risk to all
humans. No one would be able to escape. Whoever was behind this project had big ambitions.
"Then go and do what you should," Dominic urged with a slight nod as he looked at Lily with relief and
concern.
At this point, he could see how dangerous everything was. However, he knew Lily well. Besides, even
her friends and Alexander were involved in this. There was no way Lily would let things slide.
It would be fine if she were not well-versed in this field, but she was proficient. She contributed to the
experiment's success. If one day, the results of her findings harmed the whole world, she would have
an inescapable responsibility.
"I'll get going first." With a nod, she straightened up. "Galen, let's go home."
