Chapter 1300: You Were Lucky
Huo Yulin greeted the section chief before saying hello to his colleagues politely.
The section chief checked the time on his watch. He handed the report to Huo Yulin without making any small talk. He said, “Research team 3 has come up with new medicine and they are ready to perform human testing. The first batch consists of ten subjects. Two of them are showing varying degrees of side effects.”
As the section chief spoke, a serious look swept across his face. He paused before he continued. “We need to conduct an analysis on the research subjects later and analyze them. You’ll be assisting us. Since you have experience working at T5 Research Institute, I’m sure you’ll fit right in.”
Huo Yulin frowned. He had already personally destroyed the analysis solution. What went wrong?”
Were they hiding more analysis solutions somewhere else?
The section chief’s office line suddenly rang. He stopped talking to Huo Yulin and turned to answer the phone.
“Prof Gao is rushing us. Let’s go over there now.” The section chief put down the phone and headed to the door.
Huo Yulin was preoccupied thinking about the analysis solution and stood where he was without moving. When his colleague patted him on the shoulder, he finally snapped out of his daze.
“Huo Yulin?” His colleague glanced at him. “You don’t look good today.”
Huo Yulin smiled. “I’m probably a little tired after taking a long-haul flight”
“Can you perform surgery?” asked his colleague in concern.
...
Huo Yulin went quiet briefly and shook his head. “I’ll be fine.”
“Uh huh. That’s good. This will probably be a long surgery,” muttered his colleague as he walked.
Huo Yulin clutched his heart as he followed behind his colleague. When he was in the car, it was already starting to hurt.
“When you were out attending the conference, something happened at the institute. Important research archives were stolen from us. It was terrible.” His colleague shared the gossip.
A look of surprise swept across his eyes as Huo Yulin raised his head and glanced at him.
He thought about the person who helped him that fateful night.
Did he steal the research archives?
“I thought the institute had great security.” Huo Yulin spoke quizzically. “Why did the archives get stolen?”
“It was probably an inside job.” His colleague shrugged. “If it wasn’t an insider, how could they enter? You should count your lucky stars when you were sent abroad to attend a medical conference. Otherwise, you would have ended up being a suspect.”
Huo Yulin narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?”
“Someone from the institute encountered the culprit and fought with him, so he helped with the investigation. He came up with a list of suspects through elimination,” explained his colleague.
Huo Yulin already saw this coming. “Was I one of the suspects?”
“That’s right.” His colleague nodded. “You should consider yourself lucky for being abroad. The five suspects are still under detention and are probably having a hard time.”
Huo Yulin instantly went quiet. He naturally knew the severity of his deeds.
The research archives were years of hard work and very important to the institute. If they got sold to another country, the consequences were unimaginable. It might even end up being catastrophic.
If the intel got sold to a foreign government, the five suspects would suffer more than just detention. In fact, detention would seem minor in comparison.
