Chapter 67 - Leave the rest to the professionals (1/2)

When Lena woke up the next day, she suddenly regretted sleeping here. Her back ache and all her bones were semi sore. She spent a good ten minutes stretching her body before walking out to go take a shower.

James was already wide awake before Lena woke up. He was waiting by the door of her room.

”Morning James.”

”Good morning, Miss. Shen. Secretary Han is still in bed.”

”How late did he stay up?”

”He went back to the testing room and didn't fall asleep until a few hours ago even after all the scientists went to bed.”

”Ok. Let's go find something to eat.” Lena told James.

They both head down to the cafeteria where the morning workers were already up and going about their duties. A kitchen lady came out of the kitchen and asked what Lena would like to have for breakfast.

Lena knew that this was not a fancy 5-star restaurant, she just asked for a simple omelet for her and James. After their small breakfast, Lena and James head back to the testing room. Henry was still not awake.

Some scientists were already there working and they only spare a small moment to greet Lena. Lena head to grab a tablet and look at their progress from yesterday there instead. She did not want to bother them.

The lab documents all their progress so it was easy for Lena to follow their steps.

”I didn't expect to see you here so early.” Henry walked into the testing room.

Lena turned back and smiled at him. ”Where else would I be?”

He grabbed the table off Lena and looked at the report. ”Things seemed to be alright now.” Henry relaxed.

”They are sending the results in to produce a spray that will help coat the plant and protect it. For now anyways until they produce a bacteriophage that can kill off the infection.” Henry explained.

”That's good.” Lena replied.

”You can go back home tomorrow. You had done great work here already, leave the rest to the professionals.”
