Chapter 204: Threats from the Underworld
The dean spoke with a deep gaze, “Genetic testing!”
“Genetic testing?”
Scarlette and I questioned in unison.
Suddenly a question occurred to me and I immediately followed up with, “Whose?”
“No name was left, and it looks like it was a private test, which is something we at the Academy would never allow.” The Dean’s remark was a bit of a crowning statement.
But yeah, what dean can face their staff doing personal work and would not be embarrassed to be caught, I understand that all too well.
“How come you don’t have a name?” I was a little surprised, and my mood instantly soured.
“Don’t worry guys, I didn’t alarm him and made a mark, I’ll get the results first!” The dean gave us a reassuring pill when he saw how serious we were, “I’ll take this seriously when it’s over! It’s just outrageous!”
In fact, I don’t care at all whether the dean handles this or not, I care about who the test is for!
“On top of that, it’s not known, whose DNA she actually did, and that’s important!” I was a little anxious, “How could they not give a name, it’s so devious!”
“This? … depends on whether she’ll want this result when the time comes!” Dean mused, cradling his arm.
“How?” I asked anxiously, the point being that it was too important to me who this test actually belonged to.
“If she wants the lab report sheet, that’s no problem at all, we can intercept it right away. Unless she doesn’t want the report, just the results, then there’s really no way out.”
“Well then, Dean! And please take the trouble to keep an eye on this report for me! Name or no name, I’m going to get this result!” I responded to the Dean’s method with certainty, and asked for the name of the doctor who had just been there.
Since I didn’t have to wait for a report on my test, we said goodbye to the dean and headed out of the clinic.
Scarlette asked me, “What did you have Leila do?”
“I told her to go after Alice, follow her, see who she goes to see, and hopefully have a target!” I told Scarlette where Leila was going.
She gave me a thumbs up, “You’re quick on the uptake!”
“It looks like the baby is still in their hands, and one of this genes is definitely the boy’s. But the father’s, there’s no telling if it’s Robert’s or Steven’s!” I mused, “If it’s Robert’s, then why would Alice sneak up on the test like that?”
I analyze it to myself, then look to Scarlette, “You mean with sneaking?”
Scarlette reacted to my words, “… You mean Robert?”
Speechless for a moment, I glared at her, then shook my head slowly, “Did Alice have contact with Steven?”
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I shocked myself as to what this Alice was trying to do.
If she had contact with Steven …
Holy shit, that’s dangerous!
I stopped abruptly, a little afraid to think any further… Alice touching Steven?
I instantly felt a chill run down my back and spun in place as my heart started beating wildly again.
Scarlette looked over at me, “Are you … afraid Alice is in contact with Steven?”
I gave Scarlette a breathless look, she really is a bit slow on the brain circuitry to follow my train of thought.
“Shit … isn’t that a bit of a pain in the ass?” Scarlette asked me with a start.
“Big trouble!” I got a little jittery, “Alice knows too much!”
“What then?” Scarlette also seemed to be infected by me, “If she goes rogue, holy shit, there’s trouble!”
My lips are trembling a bit, that’s what I’m worried about, she’s with Robert, but she’s in contact with Steven, and she’s coming to my place to stir up trouble, what does she want? It’s not as simple as her wanting to get back at Sherry.
All signs that she, the detector, is absolutely dangerous.
Whether it’s Robert, or Steven, it’s a threat to me now.
