Chapter 442: With a Tail
Tina understood it in her heart.
It was good that Courtney was by her side; together they could fulfill their mothers’ last wishes.
Tina took Courtney around the lab, and Courtney's eyes grew brighter.
Since her childhood, she had heard her mother discuss these matters, and she was quite familiar with many of
the experiments, now augmented by her current medical knowledge, she was eager to try. At that moment,
Lockie cout with a research report and headed straight for Tina, even pushing Courtney aside, "I need to
change the direction here, the procedure isn't right, what do you think?" Tina was surprised by Lockie's quick
progress, having made significant advancements in just half an hour.
"Right." Tina took Lockie's research report and discussed the next steps in their research with him.
Their ideas coincided surprisingly in sareas.
However, Lockie's focus was more towards developing the toxicity of drugs.
Their discussion was heated, and Courtney could understand at first, but eventually, it all bectoo complex
for her.
She decided not to interrupt any further and stepped back to wait for Tina.
Courtney glanced back at Jared, who was waiting on the side, and was surprised to see his indifferent expression.
Jared saw a handsman getting close to Tina and wasn't jealous?
She remembered how Lysander had reacted before; Jared had been as dark as coal when he rolled up the car
window.
Jared was fiddling with Tina's phone and, feeling Courtney's gaze, casually looked up with an expression that
seemed to say it was only natural.
He wasn't the type to get jealous over everything.
Tina was working on something serious.
Her work was more important than jealousy.

He wasn't a vinegar pot.
Hayden: "And you're not a vinegar pot? I'd stand on my head and eat shit!"
Nathan: "Hard to disagree."
After Tina and Lockie finished their discussion, it was already late.
"That's it for today." Tina put down the research report.
She then looked back at Courtney, "Did you remember everything we talked about?"
Courtney nodded, "I remembered, and I'll organize what | didn't understand and give it to you."
Tina put away her pen, "Let's go."
Although Lockie was somewhat reluctant, he knew better than to stop Tina as she wanted to leave.
He watched as Tina and the others left.
Watching her figure, Lockie's eyes were dark and unreadable.
He clenched the research report in his hand, his lips curving into a smile.
He packed up his things and returned to the changing room to change into casual clothes before leaving the lab.
In the car, Tina looked at her phone, her lips twitching fiercely.
Her phone's wallpaper, lock screen, social media background, chat interfaces, and more.
All had been changed to various pictures of an uncle in combat attire during training and operations.
In short, handsome.
She had only complimented Nathan once, and the uncle had remembered for a month.
No wonder he had been hovering around her phone all this time.
Seeing her stare at the phone, Jared traced a smile with his lips, his voice very magnetic, "Tina, I'm the
handsomest." Tina, "..."
Who just said he wasn't a vinegar pot?
Hayden drove the car, slowly turning the steering wheel, "Serena, there's a tail."
Tina put away her phone, habitually leaned on Jared's shoulder, and closed those cunning peach blossom eyes,
"Hook it over." "Alright!" Hayden said, turning the steering wheel and slowly closing the distance to the tail.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the tail they were following disappeared.
Hayden cursed, "Damn, the guy's a pro."
Courtney sighed lightly, "Miss Reed, | told you Huskies can't drive."
"Indeed." Jared glanced at Hayden with disapproval.
It was embarrassing; they couldn't even keep a tail.
Tina looked back and said calmly, "The other party is indeed a veteran, very good at hiding."
"See, | still have Serena on my side!" Hayden retorted excitedly.
Indeed, Serena was the best there was.
| was crazy for Serena, mad for Serena, banging my head for Serena...
"But your skills really do suck, embarrassing," Tina added after glancing at Hayden.
Hayden was speechless.
So, does love disappear?
"Serena, the tail's gone, where do we go now?" Hayden slumped, completely disheartened.
Tina glanced at the time, which was still sufficient, "Let's go find Jasper."
Today was supposed to be the day they went to find Jasper, but they hadn't expected such a delay.
Jasper was locked up in the secret prison of Bureau X, the only inmate, which was considered a privilege.
Hayden and Courtney didn't go in but stayed outside the door.

Jared and Tina entered; Jasper was sitting in a chair, daydreaming, wearing a heart rate monitor, lost in thought.
He hadn't been interrogated all this time, seeing no one but his daily meal providers.
Today, he was brought to the interrogation room for the first time.
Hearing footsteps, he looked up, his deep eyes stirring slightly.
Seeing Tina, he thought she was Natalie.
He thought, if Natalie had really had a daughter with him, she would look like this.
She resembled Natalie closely and inherited all her best traits.
Under Jasper's gaze, Tina sat down and looked up at him.
Both remained silent for a long while, but eventually, Jasper spoke first.
"| didn't expect you to interrogatepersonally." Jasper's dry lips twitched, cracking in the middle and showing
a hint of blood.
Despite everything, Jasper didn't have the face of a villain.
Rather, he looked like a gentleman, gentle and refined.
His eyes always carried a gentle warmth, like a ray of sunlight in winter.
Now, his slightly haggard look made him seem somewhat pitiable, but that was just a facade.
"You want to know who the real Mr. White is, right? Sorry, but that's one thing | won't tell you. You'll have to find
out on your own, | believe you can," Jasper said, his eyes downcast, defiant. He had been locked up here,
oblivious to the outside world.
Tina couldn't help but laugh, her eyes mocking, "Always being underestimated can be annoying."
Jared patted Tina's head, "Don't bother with fools."
Jasper was startled by their conversation, "What do you mean?"
Tina raised an eyebrow, "What do you think?"
Jasper was silent for a few seconds, then exclaimed, "You've already found Mr. White!"
Tina looked at him with a half-smile, remaining silent.
