Chapter 86 Might Lose Their Lives
Steven immediately walked in front with a surgical glove and gave it to Timothy. “Put it inside. I will throw it.”
He was afraid that all of them would become victims if Timothy kept holding it.
“It’s just medicine. It makes people feel dryness in their mouths after smelling it for a long time, but it will not become as serious as their symptoms,” Timothy said calmly. Then, he slowly put the ball into the glove.
Steven quickly made a knot on the glove to prevent the scent from leaking.
“I’d just drawn blood from Patrick, and I found out there are several special medicines in his blood sample…” Timothy opened the document on the phone while talking.
Then, he passed the phone to Armand. “Many years ago, a businessman purposely hired a laboratory to work on a kind of aphrodisiac to develop the pornography industry in Rodunst. This kind of medicine can make people extremely aroused and excited. However, there’s an ingredient in the medicine that is actually a virus that can invade a person’s brain in a matter of seconds.”
Here, Timothy paused before continuing, “The side effect of this kind of medicine is strong. More than twenty people lost their lives after the medicine was administered. The local government had noticed the issue and shut down the laboratory, destroying every single piece of information about the aphrodisiac. I guess they had drunk the wines that were added with the aphrodisiac in the banquet. The effect of the aphrodisiac kicked in after being activated by this medicine.”
Armand did not take the phone from Timothy. While the latter was still holding the phone, Armand briefly read the news on it.
With one of his hands in his pocket, Armand exuded a cold aura while standing there. “It’s a prohibited medicine from many years ago, and the documents were destroyed. Why did it still appear in the country?”
“The document in the laboratory was destroyed, but the people who developed the medicine are safe.” Timothy shrugged, and he told everything he heard to Armand. “One of my friends told me that Turlen wants to develop their pornography industry too. Hence, they found the people who worked in the laboratory and paid them tens of millions as a reward.”
Taking a short break, Timothy then continued, “Turlen has started to sell this kind of prohibited medicine a few months ago, but it is only sold to the wealthy people who are frivolous. In addition, it is only sold within a limited quota every month, so the policemen in Turlen haven’t noticed yet.”
While they were chatting at the entrance, Genevieve, who was in the room with her hands strapped, seemed to be miserable.
She twisted her body on the bed and let out a muffled sound while moaning. Then, she accidentally fell onto the carpet beside the bed.
Timothy immediately turned away and left.
Steven, who stood at the entrance, quickly stepped back as if he was avoiding Genevieve.
Seeing Genevieve fall and twist around on the carpet with a miserable look on her face, Armand frowned and quickly walked toward her. He bent over and picked her up.
Genevieve immediately leaned against his body once Armand put his hand on her back. She rested her head on his chest.
“Sir…”
Genevieve closed her eyes and mumbled. Her breath fell on Armand’s shirt.
Through the shirt, Armand could feel her nice scent and the heat of her breath on his body.
He took a deep breath and quickly brought Genevieve into the bathroom.
After filling the bathtub with cold water, Armand immediately put Genevieve into it. He ripped off the necktie strapping her hands, then he tied her hands to the pipes in the bathtub to prevent her from struggling.
Then, Armand took off his coat, which was dampened by water, and walked out of the room.
He turned and walked into the living room. Armand then noticed there was another person in the room. The person seemed to have rushed there because he was sweating a lot. He was passing the medical kit he carried on his shoulder to Timothy.
“Give the medicine to Genevieve first once it’s ready,” said Armand.
Genevieve is restless. I think the necktie won’t keep her tied for long.
Timothy took out a blue syringe from a small box and shook it in front of Armand. “It’s only enough for me to make the antidote for one person.”
“Can’t you think of a solution?” Armand knitted his eyebrows. “Don’t you have a teacher who runs his own laboratory, specializing in this particular medicine? Ask him!”
“My teacher passed away last year. I’m in charge of the laboratory now. Don’t you know it?”
Upon hearing Timothy’s words, Armand was at a loss for words.
Looking at Armand’s darkened expression, a chill ran down Timothy’s back. He hastily said, “I can make another dose of the antidote, but I need time to find the raw material and extract it. The entire pharmaceutical process takes thirty-eight hours. I have time, but one of them doesn’t. Not only does this kind of drug spread quickly in the human body, but its effect is also very strong. The consequence is very serious if the effect of the medicine is not stimulated soon…”
Here, Timothy paused and looked at Armand. “They might lose their lives.”
