Nora had just left school when her phone rang.
She got into her jeep and picked up the call. Mr. Zabe's voice immediately sounded on the other end of the line. "Nora, where are you?"
Nora: "...Silvester, I still have something on. I'll take my leave."
Mr. Zabe said, "You can't leave. Let me tell you, I'm already old. I'm in my sixties and about to retire! The position of New York College of Traditional Medicine's director must be yours!"
As soon as he said this, she heard Dean Shaw's voice. "Anti, as the world's number one surgeon, you are destined to hold a scalpel. Don't be fooled by Mr. Zabe!"
"What fooled? This is my father's order! As my father's disciple, she should take over!"
"Heh, you know she's a disciple. But is Anti your disciple?!"
"...Don't be unreasonable here. Let me tell you, it's a waste of Nora's talents to hold a scalpel!"
"Why is it a waste of talent? She can solve many unsolved human mysteries! She can provide great help to the advancement of medicine! It would be a waste of her talents if you make her study alternative medicine!"
"Tsk! Dean Shaw, you're shameless!"
"Mr. Zabe, you're the shameless one, aren't you? You're clearly threatening her by using your father to suppress
Anti!"
As the two of them argued, Nora said, "Why don't..."
The voices on the other end stopped instantly. Then, Dr. Zabe and Dean Shaw spoke simultaneously.
"Nora, who do you choose?"
"Anti, you can't betray me! I lied just now because of you!"
"Heh, did Nora need you to lie? What an unnecessary move!"
"...You!"
Seeing that the two of them were arguing again, Nora raised her eyebrows and suddenly said, "Sigh, Silvester, Dean Shaw, what are you guys talking about? I entered the tunnel and there's no signal. We'll talk later!... Ah? My phone ran out of battery too? It's switched off?"
With that, she turned off the phone, afraid that the two of them would call again.
It was... a headache.
Nora touched her forehead and kept driving.
It was finally quiet.
20 minutes later, she arrived at the special department. When she entered, she saw that the staff members were all very busy.
Voices could be heard from every interrogation room. Some people were still locked up in cells. As there were not enough interrogation rooms, they had not been interrogated yet.
There were probably too many people who had just been arrested.
Nora thought about this and walked straight into the interrogation room. It was as if he had heard that she was here, Morris welcomed her.
The man was still wearing his jacket and leather boots. His long legs were thin, making him look very capable and masculine.
Nora admired it silently for a while before retracting her gaze and asking, "Which interrogation room is Trueman in?"
Although there were not enough interrogation rooms, an important core member of a mysterious organization like Trueman would definitely be in the interrogation room.
The two of them had been texting for so long and had even exchanged messages. Nora was really curious about Trueman. She did not know what this person was like.
Unexpectedly, when she said this, Morris's expression froze. He lowered his eyes and said, "I didn't catch Trueman."
Nora:"??"
A question mark slowly appeared in her mind. When she was at the university, she had clearly heard Captain Ford rushing into the hotel through her Bluetooth earpiece.
