Kason listened to James and was a little hesitant. He stared at James for a while.
At this moment, James had a gentle face. The edges and corners of James’ face were not distinct, revealing a hint of elegance.
James curled up the corners of his mouth slightly as he looked back at Kason calmly.
“Mr. Simon, your words sound reasonable. What do you want to know?” Kason asked.
James took a sip of the cup of tea. He didn’t know much about tea, but he thought the fragrance of the tea was pleasant to smell.
Hearing Kason’s question, James deliberately frowned slightly and said, “My words may be a little offensive. Mr. Kason, I’ve heard that you also have your own independent research lab and have already achieved a lot of research results. I wonder if you can show me around?”
Kason also frowned slightly. He held the teacup and looked at James. “Mr. Simon, are you interested in my research lab?”
James replied, “Yes. The reason I contacted Mr. Corey before was also for his research lab. But Corey did not seem to like this topic much. Every time we talked about this, he would try to switch the topic.
“What do you think, Mr. Kason?”
Kason smiled and poured another cup of tea for himself. Then, he asked, “Mr. Simon, what do you think of the taste of this tea?”
James’ hand, which was holding the teacup, paused. He had no sense of taste, so he didn’t know what the taste of this cup of tea was at all.
But James smiled calmly.
James replied, “This black tea tastes good. Mr. Kason’s skills in making tea are amazing. Thank you for letting me have this tea.”
Although James couldn’t taste it, he knew that Simon usually liked to drink black tea. The most unique thing about black tea was its fragrance.
Kason intended to curry favor with Simon, so he would definitely prepare this black tea.
Hearing James’ words, Kason smiled faintly and said, “If you want to go to my research lab, that’s fine. But I’ll need to make some arrangements first.”
“OK. Do as you please.”
James took a sip of tea and watched Kason get up to talk to the butler.
James and Donald exchanged a glance secretly. Similar things happened last time. But their moods were different this time.
A few minutes later, Kason came over with a smile and said a few more words before inviting James and the others to the research lab.
Originally, Donald was going to let Kason drive in the front to lead the way, and he would take James and drive behind. But Kason said that his research lab was very confidential, and other people’s cars could not get in at all. So, they could only take Kason’s car.
Along the way, Kason had been looking for topics to talk about, and James was smiling.
When the car drove to the suburbs, James took out his phone and glanced at it. When he found that there was no signal, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
Seeing James’ movements, Kason explained with a smile, “In order to do research, this area is not connected to the internet, and all of us will use the internal net.”
James nodded, indicating that he could understand. In this way, Kason could prevent being attacked and keep the confidentiality of the research lab’s address at the same time.
The car kept driving. After they passed a narrow road, James finally saw an iron gate. They could only enter the place with Kason’s fingerprints.
After that, they passed a few more security doors. Kason was the one who went to unlock them. Seeing this, James pinched the center of his eyebrows and put on his glasses with a smile.
Suddenly, the butler reached out and took James’ glasses off, saying, “Mr. Simon, I need to check your glasses.”
James took his glasses back from the butler’s hand and pointed at his own eyes. “Sorry. I have poor eyesight. Can’t I wear my glasses here?”
Kason scolded the butler, “How can you speak to Mr. Simon like that?”
Then, Kason turned to explain with a smile, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Simon. We have strict rules here. Ordinary metal and silver items are not allowed in the laboratory.”
“Oh. I see.”
Then, James gave his glasses to the butler. The butler checked the glasses carefully. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the glasses, the butler gave them back to James.
When they got out of the car, two people came forward and used machines to scan the four of them. After confirming that there was nothing dangerous, the four people were allowed to move forward.
“Mr. Kason, I like the style of your laboratory,” James joked.
“I’m doing this for the safety of the researchers in the laboratory.” Kason could tell that James was teasing the secrecy of this place, so he did not mind it at all.
James smiled and followed Kason into the elevator. This place had three floors below and six floors above.
Kason pressed the button and went directly to the top floor. James narrowed his eyes and stared at those buttons. He was a little curious.
After they reached the top floor, two women in white coats smiled as they led the four into the laboratory.
“Are they robots?” James stared at the two women in front of him.
“Yes. Mr. Simon, are you interested in them?” Kason asked with a smile.
“It is very interesting.” James saw that those robots’ movements were very natural. The muscles on their faces were also very natural.
This kind of technology was very advanced and difficult. In the past, James had also asked Nolan to send people to find a professional team to do relevant research. But they could only make some intelligent robots. Those robots were still obvious robots, and people could easily tell the difference between them and real humans.
James didn’t expect to see such advanced robots here, which surprised him a bit.
“Will they attack humans?” James asked.
“We are service robots. We won’t attack humans,” the female robot replied.
James nodded and walked to the laboratory.
Nowadays, scientific research included black technology on the Internet as well as a lot of biological research.
In this laboratory, there were some small animals. The robot introduced them in a gentle female voice. The researchers here would make these small animals infected with different diseases and then use new technology to treat them.
People often said that the universe was infinite space. In fact, the biological world also had infinite possibilities.
James listened quietly. He finally understood why Kason had brought him to the sixth floor. The research here was about the physical condition of old people.
This was a hint that Kason was confident in treating Vincent’s illness. James played dumb and pretended to be very interested in the works here.
James and the others walked around for a few moments. When they were about to leave, James suddenly glanced at Donald.
Donald suddenly paused and then walked in front of the butler, asking in a low voice.
“Sorry. Where is the toilet here?”
The butler frowned impatiently, but he still nodded and took Donald to the toilet.
Donald found that there were cameras all around, making it difficult for him to take some secret moves. Donald was not as good as James in some skills, so he couldn’t act rashly.
When Donald returned to James’ side, the two of them exchanged a glance. James immediately understood it and hinted to Donald to be patient.
Since James had already known Kason’s base, James would definitely find another chance to come here again!
After getting back to the Abbot’s place, Kason asked with a smile, “Mr. Simon, what are your thoughts after visiting my research lab?”
James said, “I think that’s not bad. I’ll ask my father about his thoughts. If he agrees, I’ll give you a call then. Can you wait for a few more days?”
“Sure.”
When Kason heard James’ words, he knew that this business was considered done.
After chatting for a while, James and Donald left and drove away from the Abbot’s place. Donald noticed that a car was following them.
“James, Kason has sent people to follow us. Is he suspecting us?”
James glanced back and sneered disdainfully, “Kason is suspicious. It’s not strange that he would send people to follow us. I’m most afraid that there are still people secretly watching us.”
James’ last sentence made Donald feel a chill run down his back.
“What do you mean?” Donald asked.
The corners of James’ mouth curled into a mocking smile. James said in an unfathomable tone, “There is more danger from a pretended friend than from an enemy!”
Donald was speechless.
Donald rolled his eyes at James. He thought James was showing off his knowledge again.
