After a busy day, Andrew finally made a breakthrough.
Even though his opponent this time was equally powerful, Andrew didn't want to waste his time on strangers. He created an app and directly installed it on their computers and phones.
"When you use this app on your phone, it will automatically block the surveillance. Just use it as it is for now. They will start a new round of surveillance if they discover our countermeasures. I don't want to waste time on these people." Andrew returned the phone to Abigail. His tone sounded incredibly calm.
Abigail nodded. "What you did is great."
After saying that, she went upstairs to find Martin.
At this moment, Martin was focused on his research. When he saw Abigail, he gestured for her to sit down.
"This is my latest development," Martin whispered to Abigail.
Abigail looked at the transparent liquid in the test tube. With her face showing confusion, she asked, "What is this?"
"It's a colorless and odorless poison," Martin explained in a low voice. "I plan to use it on those people outside the door."
"A-Are you planning to rebel against your boss?" Abigail was a little surprised.
"Death is our only outcome if we stay here. How can we safely leave this place if we don't prepare in advance?" Martin drew the drug into a syringe.
"But… aren't there people secretly watching you?" Abigail felt that his approach was somewhat risky.
Not even Simond knows how many people are secretly watching this research institute. Does Martin honestly think Richard will let him run away after spending all the money on his research development?
Moreover, Richard is aware that Martin is researching medicine. There is no way he won't take precautions in advance.
Abigail's mind was full of doubts. However, she didn't voice them out.
"Be careful and stay safe," Abigail said before getting up and preparing to leave.
Martin handed her a syringe. "Keep this on you. It might come in handy."
"Okay." Abigail reached out and took it.
Since the syringe Martin gave her was different from the usual ones, he explained to Abigail how to use it, "You have to use a lot of force to push the needle out. So, it's safe for you to carry at all times."
"Okay. Thank you."
With that, Abigail took the syringe back to her room, closed the door, and frowned as she looked at it.
Martin's plan has many loopholes. But then again, he was straightforward and didn't seem to have much intelligence when he spoke to Richard earlier.
Could it be that he really never thought of the hidden dangers behind all this?
Nevertheless, Abigail still sent a message to Simond.
'Martin has his own plan.'
She repeated what Martin had said to her to Simond.
'He's not considering the consequences at all. I couldn't even find out how many people Richard has placed around the research institute. Does Martin seriously think Richard is doing charity by giving him millions of dollars every year for his research?'
Martin himself has a high net worth. It's very beneficial for Eswadia if he doesn't want to serve Richard.
