Vicki, Felix, and Joyce continued their discussion for a while.
Vicki asked, "Joyce, did you bring someone with you, just outside the door?"
Felix was taken aback. "Who? I didn't know."
Vicki gave Felix a faint glance. "Of course you wouldn't notice. My professional intuition told me."
Joyce admitted, "Yes, his name is Darrin. He's my trusted soldier, a military advisor."
Felix was surprised. "Really? I had no idea. A military advisor at such a high rank serving as a bodyguard, that's unheard of."
Joyce smiled. "Don't mind him. He heard our entire conversation. There's nothing to hide from him, and he'll be involved in many of our future actions."
Within moments, Darrin entered the room.
Seeing Vicki and Felix, he nodded in acknowledgement, exchanging greetings with them.
Then, Darrin sat down next to Joyce.
He said, "I heard your entire conversation just now. Vicki is indeed as remarkable as they say."
"Well, I am unbeatable. My wife is naturally amazing," Felix said proudly, putting his arm around Vicki's shoulder and raising his chin with a smug expression.
Vicki sighed and pursed her lips. Felix would announce to the world that she was his wife whenever he saw someone.
She regretted impulsively getting married to him. He was like an adhesive bandage that she couldn't shake off.
Felix sat up straight. "Since we're all here, let's get back to business. One of the tasks Luther gave me has some leads. Regarding the new anesthesia he mentioned, I found out that it's Rohomes' technology, controlled exclusively by the Rohomes royal family. This anesthesia is precise and takes less than a minute to take effect."
"The Rohomes royal family?!" Joyce raised an eyebrow and exchanged a glance with Darrin.
"Yes, it's troublesome. The Rohomes royal family is not easily accessible for ordinary people, and this technology is exclusively controlled by them. How do we obtain it? We can't find an anesthesiologist randomly, as they won't be familiar with this type of anesthesia or its dosage. The first challenge we face is already quite difficult," Felix said with a worried expression.
"Don't worry. I have a solution," Joyce said.
Felix asked, "Really? That's great. Do you know someone from the Rohomes royal family through your military connections? Have you interacted with them before?"
Joyce shook her head. "The situation is a bit complicated. In fact, the Rohomes royal family is already involved with OGW. Dealing with OGW won't be easy."
"Heh, Athena is also connected to the Rohomes royal family," Vicki sneered.
"You know?" Joyce asked, surprised.
