Swanson rubbed his temples, weary from the situation with the radioactive materials, and asked, "Do you know if he's been working on anything related to radioactive materials?"

"Radioactive materials? Aren't those off-limits? Why would he be involved with that?" The colleague dismissed the idea as nonsense.

"Well, Kevin claimed he saw Adler going through some documents about them," Swanson explained.

Hearing Kevin's name, the colleague snorted, "Last year, when he didn't get promoted to Senior Researcher, he blamed Adler for taking his spot. And now we're supposed to trust his word? He's just out to stir trouble and get back at him."

Swanson gave a wry smile. "Now both Kevin and Adler have been taken in by the Security Agency. Even if Kevin's just making things up, this situation seems to have solidified."
