Chapter 663: Dr. Curt Connors ran away? (First update, please subscribe!)

Hearing Felicia Hardy’s inquiry, Su Quan asked Martina Bancroft with a smile: "Where to?"

"Uh—if it’s convenient, take me home," Martina Bancroft said somewhat unnaturally.

Why unnatural?

Because in this situation, this question and answer carried a bit of suggestion, which easily made people misunderstand.

Think about it: a young, handsome big shot invites you to dinner at a high-end restaurant, gives you an opportunity that is almost a step to the sky, and clearly expresses that he has ideas about you.

You finish dinner, come out of the restaurant, and get in the car. He asks where to go—

How straightforward and dull would one have to be to think he’s really asking where to go!

Martina Bancroft was just about to say her home address when she found that the young and beautiful female driver had naturally started the car.

"You, you know where I live?" Martina Bancroft asked suspiciously.

Felicia Hardy said, looking straight ahead: "Of course."

"Why?"

"You are a guest entertained by Mr. Su, and I am Mr. Su’s assistant. As an assistant, I naturally have to understand the basic information of the guests. Otherwise, if Mr. Su asks and I don't know anything, I might lose this job."

It sounds reasonable, and there doesn't seem to be any problem, but Martina Bancroft always felt something was strange.

Although home address is also basic information, I didn't take the initiative to inform you, and you are not an official agency. Investigating my information without notifying me, is that infringing on my personal privacy?

Martina Bancroft complained secretly, but didn't take it to heart.

After all, Su Quan must have investigated her before inviting her, just like a background check before joining a big company or working for a big shot, which is normal!

Not long after, the car stopped in front of an apartment building.

"I’m here."

"Mm."

"You—"

Just when Su Quan thought the atmosphere had been built up to this point and Martina Bancroft was about to invite him upstairs for a sit-down, Felicia Hardy received a call, said "Mm" in a somewhat serious and heavy tone, and then hung up.

"Boss, you might need to go to the company," Felicia Hardy turned to Su Quan and said.

Felicia Hardy knew very well her relationship with Osborn Corp. She said this now for only two reasons.

Either the Osborn father and son had an accident, or the cross-species genetics project had an accident.

Releasing her psychic ability, Su Quan’s brow furrowed immediately.

A moment later.

Withdrawing her psychic ability, he shrugged at Martina Bancroft and said with a smile: "It seems I can only taste your coffee skills next time."

"Ah, okay, no problem."

Martina Bancroft responded, suddenly realizing that she didn't seem to have invited him for coffee, at least—she didn't say it!

Knowing that Su Quan had to go back to the company to handle things, she didn't say much, nodded, said goodbye, and got out of the car.

"Goodbye."

Su Quan replied with a smile, and after Martina Bancroft turned and went upstairs, he signaled Felicia Hardy to drive away.

On the way to Osborn Tower, Felicia Hardy told Su Quan what had happened.

Simply put, the company’s security found traces of damage in Dr. Curt Connors’ laboratory. Out of safety considerations, they checked the laboratory’s surveillance immediately.

At first, it was normal. Dr. Curt Connors and Peter Parker were running simulation experiments on the computer, and the experiment was successful, but the two were not excited at all, and they didn't know what they talked about, but Peter Parker left angrily.

After that, it was a bit abnormal. Dr. Curt Connors, who was running the simulation experiment again, became a bit god-like, took out the white mice, made the serum, but injected the serum into himself.

Pain, struggle, coma.

Ten minutes later, Dr. Curt Connors woke up. Not only did he wake up, but his missing arm had actually grown back in a very strange way!

Then—

The ecstatic Dr. Curt Connors left the laboratory and left Osborn Tower.

Unknown whereabouts!

The company people wanted to contact Dr. Curt Connors immediately, but his phone couldn't get through at all.

Felicia Hardy is the person in charge of this project. Now that the experiment is suspected to be successful and Dr. Curt Connors has run away, the company naturally has to notify her.

Note!

"Notify" and "notify immediately" are not the same concept!

It has been almost forty minutes from the discovery of the situation to notifying Felicia Hardy.

During this period, without obtaining authorization from her, the person in charge—no, it should be said that without her knowledge at all, the company people checked the laboratory’s surveillance without authorization, and only after understanding the whole process did they notify her belatedly.

*Heh*, this is simply not taking her seriously at all!

They could contact Dr. Curt Connors immediately, but they didn't contact the person in charge of this project immediately, and even bypassed the person in charge, checked the surveillance privately, understood the whole process, and only then notified the person in charge of the result.

A person in charge who is ignored and only knows the result after the fact, is she still a person in charge?

Do you understand what the three words "person in charge" mean?

At this moment, Felicia Hardy is very angry, very angry, very angry!

Say important things three times!

She is angry that those people in the company despise—no, it should be said, humiliate her, and even more angry that these people made her lose face in front of Su Quan.

Let’s not talk about the success of the experiment and the disappearance of Dr. Curt Connors. These are sudden situations, and she was with Su Quan when the incident happened, so it’s somewhat justifiable.

But those people in the company bypassed her to check the laboratory’s surveillance and only notified her at the end, which is unjustifiable.

Especially the matter of checking the laboratory’s surveillance, it’s too bad.

To put it mildly, it’s internal power struggle or personal grudges in the company.

Felicia Hardy can imagine that many people in the company must be mocking her, despising her, and feeling that she became the person in charge of this project only because of her identity as Norman Osborn’s life assistant.

To put it bluntly, they feel she didn't get the position legitimately!

But to put it seriously, this is leaking important company secrets!

What project is Dr. Curt Connors researching?

Genetic engineering of cross-species genetics!

Once successful, how high its value is and how important it is, there is no need to say!

Felicia Hardy doesn't know how many people at the scene have seen the surveillance, but she knows that the shocking news of limb regeneration, whether intentional or unintentional, will definitely be leaked!
