528: Chapter 446 Invitation_3 528: Chapter 446 Invitation_3 Su Mo estimated, it was about time for the GT department personnel to arrive, and staying here was going to be another problem.
“You don’t need to invite me, once I am well, I will invite you.”
Karina smiled and responded.
Su Mo nodded, then turned and left.
Shortly after Su Mo left, Venla came rushing over with hundreds of fully armed combatants.
Flustered, Venla ran up to Karina.
“Karina, are you alright?”
—————————————————————–
Three days later, inside GT Department’s advanced ward.
Karina took off her hospital gown, put back on her uniform, and today was her day of discharge.
A sound of knocking arose.
Karina spoke with a calm demeanor.
Then the door opened, and Lord Spade walked in.
Karina snapped back to reality, immediately standing at attention and saluting.
“I’ve said before, there’s no need to be so formal when it’s just us.
It was tough this time, and if it wasn’t for your individual investigations, we wouldn’t have found those infected.”
Spade said to Karina.
“In any case, you did very well, I’ll remember this merit for you.”
By the way, Uncle, have they figured out how Wei He got infected or how he slipped through the inspections?”
“No, we’ve reviewed Wei He’s return quarantine and isolation surveillance footage, but found no issues.
The investigation has hit a dead end.
Currently, Augustus and I have two hypotheses, one is that there might have been a low probability error in the detection equipment, accidentally failing to detect Wei He.
The other possibility is that our equipment simply cannot detect the virus Wei He was infected with.
However, neither of these outcomes is good news for us, but this matter is at an end for now.”
Spade explained gravely.
Karina also sensed the gravity of the situation.
“Currently, there is no good response plan, and to avoid causing panic, we’ll put this matter on hold.
Don’t worry about this anymore, I’ll arrange for people to continue the investigation.
You just focus on your work in the reserve division.”
Spade decided not to let Karina get involved any further.
Karina nodded in agreement.
Shortly thereafter, Karina returned to the reserve department.
The department was quiet, with few people present.
Karina walked toward the training room; the reserve department featured a special training room.
It included simulation biological cabins that allowed for training with Biological Machines, which were somewhat infectious.
Of course, compared to actual Biological Mechas, the cabins’ infectiousness was relatively mild.
But it is said that once trainees can easily withstand the pollution of these training cabins, they are qualified to test drive a Generation IV Biological Mecha.
It wasn’t long before Karina arrived at the training room.
She saw Towes, Cheng Xue, and others all lying inside the biological training cabins.
A staff member nearby was keeping time.
At that moment, Biological Training Cabin 1 began depressurizing, and life-sustaining liquid began to drain away.
“Biological Training Cabin 1 training halted, total duration 53 minutes, one minute more than before.”
“Biological Training Cabin 3 training halted, total duration 54 minutes, 31 seconds more than before.”
Karina, observing the sapped spirits of Towes and others, could deeply feel how relentlessly they had trained.
Soon all the biological training cabins were empty, except for Cabin 12, which was still ongoing.
“Who is in that training cabin?”
Karina chatted with the operator.
“Who else but Lord Cheng Xue could last that long.”
“In fact, Lord Cheng Xue’s physical condition has already reached the official member standard.
So, this level of training is just an appetizer for her; her real training is on actual driving, it’s just unfortunate that Cheng Xue, being a substitute, doesn’t have her own Mecha.”
Karina replied thoughtfully, quietly staring. This content belongs to nοvelfire.net
After a long while, Biological Training Cabin 12 began to depressurize.
The cabin lid opened, and Cheng Xue stepped out indifferently from the cabin, then headed toward the women’s locker room.
In the women’s locker room, Karina watched Cheng Xue come in to change clothes.
Her eyes filled with curiosity, she couldn’t help but want to strike up a conversation and get to know her.
Normally, she would have approached more to understand why Cheng Xue was so strong, and to learn something from her.
But now Karina wanted to know what kind of charm the woman before her possessed, the kind that made Su Mo never forget her.
Just then, Cheng Xue’s phone inside her locker rang.
Cheng Xue glanced at the caller ID, answered the phone, and pressed the speakerphone button.
“Cheng Xue, sorry, I was training this morning and couldn’t answer the phone, what’s up?”
A steady voice came from the phone.
Cheng Xue courteously replied, “It’s okay, Brother Wang Hai, it’s nothing much, I was just wondering if you were free tonight.”
“Then I’ll treat you to dinner tonight at the Tide Music Restaurant.”
“No problem, see you at six tonight.”
Close-by, Karina froze in place, her face displaying a trace of surprise, as Cheng Xue seemed very familiar with Wang Hai and even took the initiative to invite him to dinner?
Could their relationship be very intimate?
While Karina was still in shock, Cheng Xue sensed someone approaching and turned her head toward Karina.
Karina, catching herself, pretended as though nothing was amiss and walked past her.
