Lena also took out a pair of latex gloves and put them on. Lena could feel that Mike was afraid of her and he should be. She opened the cap of the syringe and pressed a bit of the liquid out. Lena stuck the needle in his arm but then suddenly pulled it back out. Mike screamed but it was very soft.
"Sorry... I am not really good a this. We'll go plan B." Lena instantly jabbed the needle to his leg, released all the liquid, and then removed it from the flesh. "That was easier than trying to find a vein."
Lena put the used syringe in a plastic bag. "Now... that was the only thing I brought. Let's see what you brought today!" Lena walked to the suitcase filled with weird products. She immediately grabbed out what she originally purchased only from the suitcase. Mike already had her items in a separate bag.
Lena used the paycheck that Kris gave her to pay for all these items. Dirty money must go back to dirty people. Lena also placed a microphone inside the suitcase, making sure it was hidden well.
If Lena took more than what she ordered, when Mike wakes up... it will be suspicious. Lena removed one of the Whiteouts from her order. She brought it over to Mike so he can see what she was going to do.
"Congratulation customer, you will be the first one to try this amazing medicine." Lena removed the cap from the small syringe. "You won't remember anything from today anyways, so you don't need to worry about what I injected in you before. It's for the world's own good."
This time, Lena stabbed him in the shoulder. She made sure to do it in an area that was not easily seen. She put the syringe back in the bag where she put the other one. When she turned back to look at Mike, he was dead asleep. Lena checked his pulse just to make sure he was not dead.
She stuffed her evidence in her purse, which she made sure it was a big handbag today.
"I'll be out soon, James. I need to go order a take out for me." Lena spoke through the mic. She pushed the earring and turned it off. She removed them and placed it in her bag.
She almost left but forgot to remove the clothes from Mike. She placed her bag down and stripped the guy entirely naked. She stared at his tiny little worm in disgust.
"Ew.. so tiny." She covered it quickly with the blanket. "Ugh.." She shook out the scene from her mind. She ruffled the bed sheets a bit and it was a good crime scene. She looked out the door's peephole to make sure no one was in the hallway before she goes out.
Lena grabbed her bag on the floor and opened the door. However, it felt like the door was stuck. Lena yanked it hard and it opened.
"Hello, Dr. Shen. I am here for my appointment."
"You---"
Lena stared at the smiling man in front of her.
"Why are you here?!"
He laughed. "I heard my brother was too small for your needs so I came here to redeem the Zhao family name."
"Ming Zhao, you disgusting bastard!" Lena walked to go past him but he blocked her with his long arm.
"Are you not going to invite me in? Unless you want to check me out here instead, I am fine with that."
"You--" Lena pointed her a finger at him. She was going to go under his arm but she heard some voices down the hallway. "Damn you."
She dragged the man inside and closed the door. She looked at the peephole to see the people who were walking down the hallway. Ming went up close to her, trying to see out of the peephole too.
"Are they gone?" He asked.
Lena pushed him away from her. He was stealing her view. Through the peephole, she saw a couple who were laughing and they walked past the door. She turned around to see what Ming was up to.
"What are you really doing here?" She questioned.
Ming ignored her question and walked up to Mike. He stared at his unconscious half-brother. "Wow, you really did him good." He lifted up the blanket to peek at the worm. "Yep... a disgrace to the family."
Lena put her hand on her head. 'Why is he here?!'
Ming was somewhat amused at the irritation he was giving Lena. "Relax... it was all planned."
She looked up to him. "What do you mean?"
"Did you think I would really send you to him just because I did not want to do it myself? A fierce tigress like you would definitely do something like this to him."
"So you knew..."Lena thought that she played Mike pretty well, but she was also played by Ming.
"I thought you were going to beat him up though. But I guess you are smarter than that. Good job."
Lena relaxed a bit. She was only caught by Ming but they were on the same side so it's all good.
"How did you even know I was here?" Lena asked.
"Easy." Ming walked to her. "I own this place. If you can find out that Mike was using this room, so can I."
Ming went to close the curtains a bit more. "I did not expect James to remove all of the cameras in the room. But luckily..." Ming went to the suitcase and pulled out his own microphone from it. "great minds think alike."
He put the microphone back into the suitcase.
Lena rolled her eyes at him. "You still have not told me what you are doing here."
"Many of our research inventories were not matching up. Mike may have been able to hide it from the workers but not me. I have worked too long in the company to know that something was wrong."
"Wouldn't your dad know about it too?"
"Yeah.. but I covered it up."
"Why would you help that idiot?"
Ming pulled out a small blue vial from his pocket and traded it with the one in Mike's suitcase. "Becuase if he is exposed too early, he can easily blame it on an older employee. Make an excuse that he is new to the department."
Ming opened the container of the poison and took a sample of it. "If I want to get rid of him, I need to gather enough mistakes that he made and then exposed him all at once."
Ming already got Mike's family hidden in City A. His son already had a successful surgery and the mom is willing to cooperate with Ming. She told him that she did not need the money he paid her. Having her son alive was enough for her to help Ming take down her evil husband.
Ming stood up after he was done collecting his own evidence. He could not do this earlier when he implanted the microphone because Mike came back to the room to quick.
"So... doctor, are you going to examine me or not?"
"Sure... take off your pants. Let's see how amazing the Zhao family genes are."
