Because they are not mbers of the 8th-level laboratory, they only have the authority to tour the laboratory for one year.
Harvey Cadorette did not specially introduce Nathalie Quinlan and others to the laboratory mbers according to the rules.
Instead, he led them all the way, introducing the laboratory’s structure, what things Nathalie and others could touch, and what things they should not casually take.
What places they could enter, what places are confidential, and they cannot enter...
After a brief tour, Harvey pointed to the break room and said to the few people, "Alright, I’ve shown you around this much. You all can play in the break room for now, and later I’ll co find you. If I have ti, I’ll take you to see an experint."
The break room he ntioned is actually a tea room, with a circular conference table and a few chairs inside. The whole break room is functional and looks quite simple, probably a place for the laboratory to hold etings and discussions.
After Harvey led them inside, he suddenly rembered sothing, turned his body, and said to the four people, "By the way, the tutor isn’t here today, so you probably won’t see the experint. We’ll have to save it for another day."
Wincent Sullivan and Agnes Baker both ca for Orson Saban, the head of the 8th-level laboratory. Upon hearing Harvey say that he wasn’t present, they couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
However, Wincent, being skilled at handling relationships, still politely thanked Harvey on behalf of Nathalie Quinlan, despite feeling disappointed at heart.
Harvey gave them a few more instructions, and soone called him from outside, so he hurriedly walked away.
After he walked away.
Agnes slumped over the table, feeling utterly deflated, and said, "I thought I could et the Vice Principal today, but it was a total waste of ti. Disappointed..."
Wincent poured her a glass of water, placed it on the table, and said calmly, "Didn’t Harvey say we’d have another chance? You shouldn’t be so anxious."
He also poured water for Williansen Barness and Nathalie Quinlan, placing it in front of them.
Williansen lifted the water glass, took a sip, then raised his head, his cold black eyes looking at Wincent, and asked, "Did Harvey ntion what we’re supposed to do next?"
Wincent was slightly taken aback by his question, shook his head, and hesitated before saying, "Well... he didn’t seem to bring it up."
"So are we just going to sit here stupidly?" Williansen was a bit restless and put down the water glass.
Agnes, who was slumped there, also sat up again, looking equally depressed, and chid in, "Are they just going to ignore us? Damn, then we’ve gained nothing. This is way worse than staying in our little laboratory. At least in the small lab, we have things to do, but here we can’t do anything."
They thought that joining the 8th-level laboratory would allow them to learn from its head, the Vice Principal of The First Research Institute, not to ntion becoming nad disciples—they could at least observe.
But as it turns out, not only is Orson Saban not here, but they’ve also been arranged to stay in the break room, without even having the qualification to stay in the laboratory.
No one anticipated this result.
Wincent could do nothing but try to comfort them, "Let’s wait a bit longer. Harvey and the others didn’t say they wouldn’t arrange anything for us later."
At this mont, Williansen and Agnes were already aware in their hearts.
They didn’t think the people from the 8th-level laboratory would show them a good ti, though they still held onto a bit of hope, so neither of them said anything more.
The atmosphere in the break room beca silent.
