Chapter 400 A Crucial Clue

Inken’s stern voice echoed through the phone, “What’s missing?”

“It appears to be the medical equipment that Miss Kaufmann left behind.” Michael gazed at the gaping. void. “Mr. Ink, Miss Kaufmann, and the three medical scientists have vacated this villa ever since the drug research was successful. Why would anyone break in to steal things? Could it be connected to those. people?”

Inken’s voice deepened. “Please investigate the whereabouts of those three scientists who were collaborating with Freya on the drug research immediately!”

Furthermore, the intruder also stole the medical equipment, which suggests they might have ulterior motives. I suspect that there’s a critically ill person in their organization. who requires Freya’s medical assistance, which is why they haven’t handed her over yet.”

Radley narrowed his eyes. “This is a significant lead.“

“Indeed.” Braxton pondered on the other end. “If the organization indeed has a critically ill person, it’s highly likely they’ve sought treatment at major hospitals, so we can extract all the hospital treatment.

records.”

Inken nodded in agreement. “This is a more efficient approach than scouring the globe for them.”

The trio outlined the investigation area and then ended the video call.
