A female doll with the word, Marsh, written on its face.Winnie was instantaneously reminded of
Lisanne.Noticing the changes in her facial expression, David immediately asked, “Who is Marsh? Do
you know this person?”“Yes.” Winnie furrowed her brows. “She’s my good friend, and her name is
Lisanne Marsh. Harold must’ve chosen her because he realized the other people around me couldn’t
be easily targeted. Still, Lisanne is innocent. She doesn’t know anything and has never interacted with
Harold.”“Where is she right now?” David grew anxious as well. “Hurry up and give her a call to confirm
her current location and status!”Winnie grunted in response before hurriedly taking out her phone and
dialing Lisanne’s number.However, the line kept ringing, but no one picked up the call.After attempting
twice, she suddenly recalled that Lisanne might’ve been taken away by James and Greta.At that time,
Lisanne had informed Winnie that she might be uncontactable for the uing two days, and it would
be normal for her to be temporarily unreachable.Winnie had also responded by saying that she could
understand Lisanne’s circumstances.Still, after seeing that doll, Winnie did not think so anymore.“This
is not working.” She kept her phone in slight frustration. “Lisanne isn’t answering my calls, and I don’t
know where she is. But I do know someone who is informed of her whereabouts.” Staring at David, she
said, “However, I may require your assistance, Captain Gibson.”“Tell me.” David was willing to provide
her with any help to ensure a citizen’s safety.Then, Winnie recounted the incident of her seeing
Lisanne, James, and Greta conversing at the science academy’s entrance the other day.Nheless,
she didn’t divulge too much information. “I’m not sure about the specifics. I can only guess that Officer
rk may have taken Lisanne away to seek her help. If that’s the case, we’ll need to trouble you to talk
to him.”James was in the Special Task Force, which was a different department from David’s Criminal
Investigation Force.Hence, David wasn’t sure about James’ and Greta’s operation. Nevertheless, since
that matter now involved Lisanne’s safety, David had to visit the Special Task Force no matter what that
day.“Okay. Leave that matter to me. In the meantime, you can try contacting your friend’s family
members to see if you can find out any information.”With that, he turned to give orders to his
subordinates before dialing Special Task Force’s office number.As he was one of the staff members,
his call could be directly connected to James’ line.He gave James an ount of the important events
of that day’s case and proceeded to inquire about Lisanne’s whereabouts.Unfortunately, David didn’t
receive a conclusive answer from James because their conversation over the phone didn’tst
long.Taking in that scene, Winnie knitted her brows.She instinctively met Xavier’s eyes. He grasped her
hand andforted her with a low voice, “Don’t worry. Perhaps the situation is not as terrible as we
imagine.”She frowned in silence and merely responded by grabbing his hand tightly.At the same time,
David strode in their direction.Wearing a solemn expression, he said to Winnie, “Officer rk refused
to talk to me in detail regarding this matter over the phone.”Winnie’s heart sank after she heard
that.However, David swiftly added, “He wants me to go to his ce because some things aren’t
suitable to be discussed via a call. You two should tag along with me.”Winnie heaved a sigh of relief. In
this case, Officer rk must be aware of Lisanne’s whereabouts.Soon, they arrived at the Special Task
Force’s office. James waited for them at the entrance to wee them personally.As Xavier went to
park the car, he was slower to reachpared to Winnie and David.Noticing Xavier’s absence, James
couldn’t help but gaze behind the neers before asking Winnie, “Where’s Mr. Fairchild? Why isn’t
he here with you two?”Winnie was baffled.Apparently, James hadn’t demanded their presence solely to
reveal Lisanne’s whereabouts to them. It seemed like he had another objective.She couldn’t help but
knit her brows. “Why else are you looking for him? He’s parking the car and will be here soon.”James
replied grimly, “There is something I need to discuss with you two. It’s fine as long as he’s here.”Right
after he spoke, Xavier entered their vision as he walked toward them withrge strides.Now that
everyone was there, James led the party into his office.“Take a seat. I only have these few chairs here,
so make yourselffortable.” After directing everyone to settle down, James cut to the chase.“Firstly,
I want to update you about the whereabouts of Ms. Marsh from the science academy. Indeed, we, the
Special Task Force, have temporarily transferred Ms. Marsh and her other colleague here because
they are very experienced in handling radioactive elements and gas. I believe you all are familiar with
my colleague Margareta. She’s very excellent and skilled in tracking and surveince. Therefore, this
time, the organization has assigned her a mission.”He paused briefly before continuing, “We received
definite news about an overseas terrorist group kidnapping a scientist from Rodunst a few months ago.
This scientist recently attained a significant achievement in his research on radioactive gases. He
sessfully extracted a form of radioactive gas from the element Actinium, and the gas was named
Alpha radioactive gas. This newly-extracted gas is simultaneously beneficial and detrimental. It is
useful in the treatment of cancer when used safely and correctly. However, when the gas is misused, it
will cause great harm to humans and the environment that humanity depends heavily on for survival.
Now, that scientist and the Alpha radioactive gas he created have been forcefully taken away by these
terrorists. The police force at Rodunst had immediately taken action after that incident happened. They
have been trying to arrest the terrorists, rescue the scientist, and retrieve the Alpha radioactive
gas.”James took a break before adding, “However, the terrorists are threatening the police with the
scientist and Alpha radioactive gas. Hence Rodunst’s police force didn’t dare to act impulsively. As a
result, these desperados gradually retreated and have since entered our country’s border. While
hunting them down, these terrorists have also suffered great casualties. Since they aren’t capable of
shing head-on with the police, they decide to take the risk and sneak into Avenport. Regrettably,
aside from knowing the scientist’s appearance, we failed to acquire any photos of the terrorists. We
finally tracked them down with much difficulty recently, but their movements are erratic. They have
probably entered the city’s mountainous area and are attempting to barge into the neighboring state’s
mountainous area to abscond.”He paused for a few moments before saying, “We were surprised about
the fact that they chose Avenport, but we figured out afterward that they probably wanted to pack the
Alpha radioactive gas in separate containers and take them away. Or perhaps, they have more than
just one buyer in the first ce. Coincidentally, there are a few chemical nts at the juncture of
Avenport and its neighboring state, and one of them is abandoned. We suspect that they will be
packing the Alpha radioactive gas in one of those chemical nts. The nts belong to Fairchild
Corporation and Gand Group, which was why we asked you toe here today to help us.”
