"Did you finish the preparations already?"
I asked the kid in which he answered immediately by nodding and pointing in his bathroom.
I dashed towards the bathroom and flipped the bath tub with all my might. I then kicked the wall where the bath tub used to be.
And moments later, after a few more full forced kicked, the reinforced metal wall revealed a small hole caused by corrosive acids.
On the other side of the wall was a small canal with flowing dirty water where I can crawl and barely fit inside.
As I was preparing myself to crawl inside the canal, I heard the voice of the kid once more and told me
"I'll probably be executed after this whole ordeal y'know. Don't you even wanna say thank you or goodbye to me for helping you?"
"You helping me right now, is the most human thing you could ever do for the rest of your remaining life. You should be the one thanking me. I've given you the gift of humanity."
"Sure, whatever. Now scram, I need to close that hole immediately. It stinks!"
The kid smiled at me before I went inside the canal.
--------
Inside the NOVUS President's Office.
"Sir. We have an emergency. One of the mortal sins escap-"
"I know. Sound the alarm immediately."
"Sir, yes, sir"
After the agent in full gear was done reporting, he bowed and frantically ran outside. Leaving a tall man with his paper works, who does not seem to mind the large issue going on outside.
'So that son of mine finally proceeded with his plan of actions.'
His eyes, seemingly filled with countless thoughts of different topics, but his mind was swirling only with a single thing.
'Well then, I know its inevitable for him to successfully escape, but I'll make sure to give him one hell of a time if he wants to waltz on out of here...consider this your final test my dear son.'
--------
'Fuck! It smells like rotting corpse in here. Those damned autopsy agents'
I'm currently crawling inside the canal, and every now and then I could hear the footsteps and voices of commands from all directions. It is pitch black in here.
'A few more meters and I'd be able to climb on the third vent opening.'
Finally. After successfully crawling towards the vent, I then proceeded to crawl inside the next one and followed the path towards biochemistry lab.
And now I'm inside the lab and started removing my clothes. It was fully air conditioned inside so the stench immediately spread around the lab.
Of the 3 chemists inside, one followed the scent and left the other 2 on the autopsy table.
As soon as he saw my clothes, the emergency siren started playing.
This in turn made the chemist grab hold of his gun. But before he could fully equip it, I chopped his nape from the back and snapped his neck.
After that I took his clothes and picked up a surgical mask as well as surgical hat on one of the shelves.
I walked towards the autopsy room and shot both the remaining chemists down.
"Come over here buddy" I said as I picked up one of the dead chemists and used his eyes to be scanned by identification security scanner in the door.
-------
I'm now walking towards the underground docks when one of the security agents suddenly halted me and asked for my identification card. As my left hand reached inside my lab coat pocket, I used my right hand to punch the security in his throat.
This of course stunned him so I reacted instantaneously and grabbed his combat knife before stabbing him in the pharynx.
The other guards were now alerted so I fled the scene immediately and headed towards the docks.
I ran, and ran, and ran, until I finally saw one of the boats. The first thing I did was hide from the securities that are chasing me. After which I accelerated the boat and sailed full speed ahead, this boat will act as a diversion and will give me additional time and opportunities to shake off my pursuers.
I then took off the lab coat as well as all of the clothes in my body and readied myself.
Now this will be the deciding factor for the success of my escape, I would need to dive in the sea and retrieve the oxygen tank that I had hidden weeks before this. After that, I will swim for at least 20 km and resurface on an abandoned land.
"A'ight, watch me work."
