Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Alexander Foster’s Little Hobby

Chapter 194

Alexander Foster must have hired a very advanced hacker to design the security system; it was very difficult, full of traps, and even the slightest misstep would trigger an alarm.

She carefully processed for seven or eight minutes before successfully hacking it.

After entering the page, she put the security system here to sleep before getting to work.

In the computer, all the materials were copied by her, and then, she set the security system to automatically start up two hours later and closed the computer.

With the remaining time, she leisurely toured the basement.

Last time, because she was worried that Alex might come back at any time, she had hurried in and out without looking closely.

Now she discovered that there were so many little "secrets" in here.

Alex... liked to collect figurines.

In his room upstairs, there wasn’t a single figurine, and the decoration was quite cold, very much in line with the impression he gave people.

But... all these dazzling figurines were indeed his.

This was... quite like her.

She picked up a twenty-centimeter-tall Luffy and checked it; on the base, there were a signature and a date.

Each figurine was very well preserved and exquisite.

Not a speck of dust had fallen on them.

Moving to another functional area, she saw two large bookcases.

They were stuffed full of books.

She didn’t seem to notice these last time.

She wasn’t sure if it was because the power was off and she missed it, or if he had recently added them.

Taking a closer look, she once again updated her perception of Alex.

It was... comics and novels.

The types he liked were similar to hers, mostly suspense and detective themes mixed with adventure and fantasy.

She flipped through a few of them quickly and didn’t find anything unusual.

There was a faint scent mingled with medicinal and spices in the air, which was dry and made her think of dried medicinal materials.

Following the scent, she quickly found a locked cabinet.

Because of her keen sense of smell, the smell was overwhelming to her at this point.

She fanned the air near her nose and looked at the password lock pensively.

Since there was a password, it must be extremely important to Alex.

She thought for a moment, came up with several possible passwords, and tried them out.

As expected, all of them were wrong.

She wasn’t in a hurry.

After years of dealing with fragrances and medicinal materials and having a keen sense of smell, she had long learned how to best use this advantage to identify the scent itself.

Leaning against the side of the cabinet and smelling that scent, she slowly wrote down a series of names of medicinal and aromatic materials on her phone’s note app.

Quite a few, a total of fifty kinds when combined.

Every time she smelled this scent, she felt invigorated.

The smell on Alex was so faint that it was just right and not too pungent.

She thought for a moment and sent the list to Albert Green.

Albert Green had the same idea as her - to find the time and soak once on their own.

However, she was quite curious - what did Alex soak in that stuff for when he was healthy and uninjured?

After returning to her room, Chloe hadn’t yet become sleepy and started browsing on her phone.

In the messaging app, there was a message from Heijii, which was sent to her this afternoon; she saw it, but didn’t reply.

[Boss, have you worked out the formula for next quarter? The Research and Development Department is asking for it.]

LM’s Research and Development Department... was more or less just a decoration.

Of course, they wouldn’t just take the money and not work, but the core part of their work wasn’t developed by them.

They had attempted research and development before, but the resulting product had left her dissatisfied. At first, she would help them improve, but later, she simply did it herself, which was more worry-free.

All these years, Chloe had only collaborated with them under a code name, without revealing her face.

Heijii handled the relevant affairs in the middle.

Chloe replied a few words: let them wait.

As soon as this message was sent, Layla Lowell called her.

She answered it casually.

Incoming was not Layla Lowell’s voice, but a panicked female voice -

"Is this Chloe? I’m Edna Higgins, Layla is in trouble! Can you come over? We’re at New City Bar."
