Chapter 787
After Brittany left, Scott held the business card in his hand for a while before tearing it to shreds and tossing it into
the trash bin.
Just then, the sound of knocking echoed once again.
Scott frowned. Could it be Brittany again?
He rose subconsciously, making his way to the front door.
Just as he was about to open the door, he was hit with a wave of dizziness.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore he could react, a gleam of silver flashed before his eyes. Burning hot blood sprayed out from his body, and
he instantly collapsed before he even had the chance to scream.
The figure, clad in black, glanced at the lifeless Scott and then turned to leave.
At the same time, a man’s voice sounded.
“Yes, it’s done.”
Back at the hotel, Brittany found that Isaac had not returned yet.
She helped Daniel with his nightly routine and waited until he fell asleep. Then, she turned on her laptop, searching
for information about Scott.
He had once worked at a research institute known as “QY.”
It had collected various geniuses; among them, the HSE12 virus was their most complex and deadly creation.
Brittany searched for all the information about the institute. The person behind the institute was very mysterious,
never appearing in public.
That person was rumored to have close ties with the Military Department.
Brittany felt like she was in a fog, unable to see where she came from or who she really was.
Before leaving H City, Brittany accidentally saw a piece of news that a man had been murdered at home.
Looking at the news, Brittany felt a sense of gravity.
Shockingly, that man was Scott.
Brittany immediately contacted the police to confirm it was Scott.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNever would she have expected Scott to be killed right after she left.
He had no family and rarely had contact with his relatives and friends. No one was there to handle his affairs.
Brittany had to step in to take care of Scott’s funeral briefly.
She felt a bit guilty; if she had not found Scott, perhaps he would not have died.
Brittany visited the Anderson family, where she found some of Scott’s manuscripts, all about the HSE12 virus.
But they were not about producing the virus.
They were about curing it.
Brittany was unfamiliar with this, so she took all the manuscripts.
After she left, someone broke into Scott’s house, setting a fire that erased all traces of Scott.
Back in Imperial City.
