The figure belonged to Aunt Fang, a servant of the farm.
She was helping with cleaning when she overheard Lu Mian making a phone call in the corridor, and she paid extra attention and listened in for a bit longer.
She didn't catch everything, but she understood phrases like "guarantee to complete the mission."
Aunt Fang was a local rural person from Luoxia Town with little education. After spending a long time with the people on the farm, she had an inkling that they were conducting some research.
Feeling that the matter was serious, she promptly and discreetly contacted Xin Yuelu.
Xin Yuelu had just stepped out of the lab's signal-blocking zone when she received Aunt Fang's call, and she was quite surprised.
"Miss Yuelu, I just heard Miss Lu Mian talking about completing a mission..."
She recounted to Xin Yuelu what had just happened, and Xin Yuelu took the matter even more seriously.
