«Some people from the Government are visiting,» had said the secretary. At those words, Chris frowned. As did May.
She didn't need to meet anyone from her grandfather's party there. Nor from Chris's party, for that matter. She wanted to stay safe and anonymous while visiting the lab and checking how the research on bullet trains was faring.
Also, she was starting to understand why they hadn't found anything while hacking around. They couldn't find any real clue because it was not done in a Government facility but in a private lab. Owned by the last person she would have thought to check.
As she cursed her ill fate, she remembered the Government officers wouldn't see her face. Hopefully.
She looked up at Chris, and he seemed to read her worries directly from her mind.
«They aren't exceptions,» he said. «They can't see.»
