Chapter 41 Board of Directors

Strategic Science Corps Division.

"I have already communicated with the New York headquarters, and Rogers will help us apply for permission."

Putting down the phone in his hand, Leon raised his head and looked at Sartre: "In addition, arrange two field workers to bring Jane Scott's body back, and then tell the people in the laboratory to fully cooperate with Howard. Find out what the mysterious substance that killed her is."

"Understood, I'll arrange it right away." After nodding, Sartre turned and left the office.

At the same time, Calvin Chadwick came to a private club, led by the waiter, into a secret meeting room.

Looking at the seven gray-haired dignitaries sitting around the conference table, Calvin forced the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Good evening, gentlemen!"

One of the leading elders pointed to the empty seat opposite and said to Calvin, "Sit down, Calvin."

Calvin, who seemed to realize something, gradually put away his smile. After taking a deep breath, he slowly walked to the empty seat, and then sat down. Seeing this, the old man in charge said again: "In view of the recent incident, A series of things, the board of directors agreed that the best solution at present is to close the energy research project of Etherdan and dispose of all related equipment."

"Closing the project?" Calvin looked at the old man sitting opposite, smiled and said, "Tom, I am also a member of the council, but I have never heard of the decision to close the project."

"Now, you heard it."

The old man named Tom clasped his hands together on the table, leaned forward slightly, and said, "So far, your experiment has not achieved any results, and even attracted a federal investigation."

Speaking of this, another old man sitting next to Tom also echoed: "I hope you can understand our concerns. After all, you also know that certain projects cannot be put on the bright side."

"Yes, I admit that we have indeed encountered some failures and encountered some troubles. This is an undeniable fact, but..."

However, before Calvin could finish speaking, Tom raised his hand to interrupt and interjected: "Failure is indeed an important part of progress, but it can also bring accidents. The most important thing is that your current research The project puts our council's interests at risk and we have had to decide to stop."

"The project we are working on now may be the greatest existence in history so far. We cannot kill it in the cradle because of failures, risks, and difficulties." Calvin stared at Tom, word by word said.

"Really? But everything you've done hasn't shown us what you call greatness, Calvin!"

"I'm not a scientist." After shaking his head with a wry smile, Calvin still didn't want to give up: "I can only say that a person who is smarter than all of us here told me that the substance we are studying now may be Invaluable treasure, once successful, Ethelden Energy can make atomic energy, which has not yet been fully popularized, obsolete, and make us earn billions"

"No need to say anything more, we have already made a decision and it cannot be changed." Tom raised his hand again and interrupted Calvin: "We have arranged for someone to deal with the woman's body, and tonight, we will also Someone will be sent to clean up the lab, after which all ties to the project will be severed."

"Don't think we're targeting you, Calvin." Tom continued, looking at the gloomy Calvin, "Your interests are also ours, and your energy should now be on the senatorial campaign. A lot has been put into your campaign, don't let us down, Calvin."

After a brief silence, Calvin breathed out slowly, and nodded helplessly: "I understand, I will arrange everything according to the decision of the council."

A movie shooting scene, in the dressing room.

Immediately after the meeting, Calvin drove to find his wife, Whitney, and informed the latter of the council's decision: "The council insists on disbanding the project, as long as it is related to the project, including zero material, Experimental records, various facilities and equipment."

Whitney, who was sitting in front of the makeup mirror, shook her head with a wry smile: "We will soon be able to change the world, but they will ruin it all with their own hands."

Taking a deep breath, Whitney said while putting on her makeup: "Compared with zero matter, the current atomic energy is as backward as a steam engine. Once it succeeds, energy will open a new era, and all of us will be driven by it." Make a lot of money."

"I told them." Calvin, who was sitting on the sofa, spread his hands helplessly: "But they still think the risk is too great. After all, there are a lot of... troubles, all about the laboratory, so..."

"So?" Whitney glanced at Calvin with a gloomy face: "We wouldn't have encountered these troubles in the first place, it was all because of your poor vision in picking mistresses, which caused the current situation, and caused this After this situation, you acted too weak again."

"I did my best, okay?" Calvin argued, "They made up their minds before I got there."

"You should stop them from making such stupid decisions." Through the makeup mirror, Whitney looked at Calvin and said, "Instead of letting them lead by the nose like before!"

Looking at his angry wife, Calvin slowly stood up and walked to the former side: "I'm sorry, my dear, the council's attitude is very firm, I have tried my best to persuade them, but according to their We decided to send someone to clean up the lab tonight."

After sitting down next to Whitney, Calvin continued: "Listen, the council wants me to focus on the Senate campaign, which is actually better for us in the long run, isn't it? "

After staring at Calvin for a moment, a smile gradually emerged on Whitney's face: "I'm sorry for what I said earlier, dear, I believe you will definitely be an excellent congressman."

"This is my sweet baby." After finishing speaking, Calvin hugged Whitney tightly in his arms, but the smile on Whitney's face disappeared instantly after the latter leaned on Calvin's shoulder , there was a little thoughtful look in the light blue eyes.

At the same time, the back door of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Belk and White were preparing to load the rolled corpses onto the corpse truck, but as soon as they opened the door, a man in a suit holding a suppressed pistol appeared in their sight. When they realized it, the man in the suit had already pulled the trigger.
