Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1313

Chapter 1313 They Found No Leads

Johann nodded. “That seems to be the case."

Dr. Albus read the report again, this tmore carefully, and said, "That's strange. I know that the excretions from this creature have very minor sedative properties, and even hundreds of them would not even have too much effect on the human body. How did the person who refined the drug do it?"

Johann took the report and said, "You'll probably have to ask the person who refined the drug. There isn't a technique in modern medical technology that can do it. If the substance truly knocked all of you out, I can only say that there's a lot we don't know."

"Just imagine what I can do with this technique!" Dr. Albus exclaimed.

Luca was silent. She knew about the drug that they ingested. Shanks had devised the technique of refining it.

No one else outside the Island of Despair knew about the technique.

If Shanks published his research findings, many people around the world would benefit from it. However, Shanks had no such plans, and he did not teach Luca the technique either.

Johann discreetly observed Luca. She was silent as though the matter did not concern her, despite the fact that she was the biggest victim.

"What do you think, Dr. Craw?" He asked.

"If such a technique exists in the world, why didn't its inventor publish it?" Luca said nonchalantly.

She said what everyone had been thinking without giving too much away.

Dr. Albus nodded. "That's true. Imagine that person patented the technique. He'd be swimming in cash!"

Johann looked at Dr. Albus with contempt. 'Is money the only thing he thinks about?'

Luca was also not interested in discussing that topic. She said to Johann, "Dr. Park, are you here to deliver the report to Mr. Crawford?"

"Yes." Johann was here to deliver the report to Luke. Even though Luke said that he would not understand it, Johann had to inform him about several things.

He went to the company but was told that Luke had already left. That was why he had gone to the hotel, and he happened to bump into Luca and the others, who had just returned from the day's conference.

That resulted in the aforementioned conversation.

Luca nodded. "I won't disturb you then."

Johann was curious about why Luca could remain so unperturbed. If whatever happened to her happened to anyone else, they would want to get to the bottom of it.

Luca and Luke were the biggest victims in the incident, yet the former behaved as though it did not concern her.

Johann had obtained a visitor's access card from the front desk. He saw that the elevator had arrived, so he quickly rushed toward the lobby.

The people stepped into the elevator.

Luca stepped out of the elevator after it arrived at her floor. Johann said, "Dr. Craw, won't you want to calong with us and discuss it with Mr. Crawford?"

"I've read the report, but I have no knowledge of the technique. I don't think I'll be of any help. As for what happened that day, I was unconscious throughout the entire incident, so I won't be able to help you either. I should return to my room and not give you or Mr. Crawford any more trouble." Luca refused Johann's invitation.

She already knew what she needed to know about the incident, and she was not interested in anything else.

Listening to their discussion would only bring her more trouble. Moreover, she did not want to meet Luke so often, in case she could not stop herself from indulging in her affection.

It was best to keep away from Luke whenever possible.

Johann rubbed his chin as the elevator doors closed slowly. "That's weird," he said.

When he arrived at Luke's floor, Johann tapped the access card on the door and went in without knocking.

"You're here, Uncle Johann!" Tommy greeted Johann with a smile.

Johann patted Tommy's head and took out a packet of chocolate cookies from his pocket. "Good boy. Here's your reward," he said.

"Thank you, Uncle Johann." Tommy opened the packaging and began stuffing his mouth.

Luke nodded to acknowledge Johann's presence. Johann sat on the couch and said, "Would you like to read the report this time?"

"Summarize it," Luke said.

Johann told Luke about the substance and how difficult it was to refine it. Then, he said, "I can only say that things are much more complicated than we expected. No researcher in Watson could refine the substance to such a high concentration."

"Mm," Luke replied and suddenly thought of Luca.

'Can't she do it?'

He knew that Luca carried with her a stash of medicine of her own creation, and he wondered if Luca knew the technique to do it.

He was sure that Luca was not the mastermind behind the incident. After all, she was also a victim.

"There's no point in figuring out the identity of the mysterious substance," Johann said, sounding slightly frustrated. "How's the investigation on your side?"

He was referring to the hacking of the company network.

Under immense pressure, the IT department worked overtfor a week straight before tracing the origin of the virus to a small diner in New York.

The owners of the small diner were an elderly couple, and there was nothing suspicious about their backgrounds. The restaurant did not have surveillance cameras either.

They could not find any clues beyond that. The enemy must be a master hacker to cause such damage to the company network. Moreover, several of their top-secret documents had been leaked, which added to the losses suffered by the company.

Luke planned to return to A City the next day, but he had to stay back to deal with the crisis.

The drug and the virus told him that his enemy was far more powerful than he originally thought.

"We couldn't find any leads," Luke said.

Johann placed the report on the coffee table and said," Looks like we're in a lot of trouble."

Luke nodded.

Tommy could see the frustration in Luke and Johann's eyes. "Daddy, Uncle Johann, aren't you very amazing? You'll definitely defeat the baddies."

Johann chuckled and patted Tommy's head. "Who do you

think is more amazing, your Daddy or me?"

"Of course it's my Daddy!" Even though Tommy was eating the cookies that Johann had given him, he was not so easily bribed.

"Sigh, I'm so sad to hear that." Johann pretended to put on a sad face. Then, he turned to Luke. "Does the company still need you here? Are you going back to A City tomorrow?"

Luca and the others would finish their training tomorrow, and Luke had expected that he would be able to finish up his business there.

"I can't." Luke shook his head.

Johann looked at Tommy and frowned. "If you have to stay here, what about Tommy?"
