"Is Mr. Reid a core member of the Mar Project?"
He Ao stirred his coffee, suddenly speaking out.
"Of course, he is the only core member from the Limen City Research Institute."
Kors sipped on his milk, speaking slowly.
"Are there Research Institutes in other cities?"
He Ao's coffee stirring paused briefly.
"At present, there are over a dozen Research Institutes throughout the Federation, located in various major cities," Kors fell into brief contemplation, "The places where the Group sets up Research Institutes are usually densely populated metropolises, and Limen City is one of the few exceptions. In fact, I also don't know why the Group decided to establish a Research Institute in Limen City."
"Hmm,"
He Ao continued to stir his coffee. Limen City being 'chosen' was probably due to the existence of the Fountain of Youth.
To speculate even more boldly, perhaps the earliest 'research' started in Limen City.
