Lily thought nothing more of it, lowered her head, and began reading the date. She flipped through the pages and discovered the
sproblem she faced with the experiment.
One must naturally subdue the scent to maximize the drug's potency. Also, to let the latter emit its natural aromas, the potency
would not be optimum. The biggest problem was the intention to combine the two perfectly.
Lily could not understand why they insisted on such perfection, as not being perfect was the norm, and true perfection was an
imperfection that cwith defects.
Not to mention that the earlier research was intended to cure people. The patients would accept if the scent of the spices were
milder, and there was no need to get rid of the herbal smell completely.

When she later discovered that the research’s goal was not to develop a medicine but poison, she understood the organization was
not trying to alleviate others’ suffering. Instead, it was to put people under the drug's influence unknowingly.
She imagined their target was someone important, and their intention was not to kill them but to make the person their puppet.
Such an important person must be well-protected, and she reckoned they wanted to use spices as it was not easy to poison the
target directly. However, Lily did not know whom the organization was targeting.
Having browsed through the data, Lily shook her head.
Mike asked, “What's wrong?”
“The data is incomplete.” Lily handed him the documents and went straight to the point. “I've made it very clear that | need all of
them. It's not complete if you conceal anything from me.”
“But everything is here,” Mike answered, puzzled. After all, he knew she was coming and had long gotten the workers to compile
the needed information. Of course, he would not know how complete or incomplete the information was.
“You must ask them if the data files are complete. | believe they know better than you.” Lily turned toward the person who gave
her the documents.
The worker was experimenting with her back toward them as if the matter had nothing to do with her. She did not hear Lily and
Mike talking.

“Ahem...” Mike cleared his throat. He knew neither the worker's nnor who she was, as many wore masks and hazmat suits.
However, since it was a heavily guarded area, he knew no one could enter willy-nilly.
When he coughed but still got no response, he said, “Whatshername.”
Lily looked at Mike bewilderedly.
Embarrassed, Mike went over and was about to pat the worker's shoulder when the woman suddenly turned and stared at him.
Mike was startled and looked at the woman in embarrassment with his hand hovering mid-air, not knowing what he should say
momentarily.
“Uh...”
“What do you want?” The worker spoke in an unfriendly tone, and her voice sounded strange. Despite the hazmat suit, Mike knew
she was agitated.
