Chapter 602
The locksmith Eric brought was fast. He picked the lock in just half an hour. When the door was open,
Melanie squinted her eyes out of habit.
“You guys didn’t bump into the models inside, did you?” Eric’s first concern was that. Then, he looked
around. “Why did the electrical circuit suddenly burn? And it only happened in this room? Nothing like
this had happened throughout these years.”
Only then did he look at Melanie and Eugene. “Are you guys…”
Before Eric could finish, he stopped. Then, he looked at Melanie’s and Eugene’s hands, which were
still holding each other. He said, “You guys look fine to me.” Melanie realized she was holding Eugene’s
hand. She cleared her throat and pulled her hand out of Eugene’s grip. Then, calmly, she asked Eric,
“Where’s Mr. Fuller?”
“Mr. Zeitman wanted to show him the plan. His research studio is nearby. That’s why I came looking for
you. However, who knew…”
He started talking about the electrical circuit. Melanie frowned. Something seemed to strike her mind.

Eugene said nothing. He looked at his hand that Melanie had shoved off. He could still feel the softness
of her palm in his.
He looked at Eric and asked, “Are there any surveillance cameras around this area?‘
“Huh?”
“This might not be a coincidence. Did you see anyone when you came over?”
Mr. Fuller’s research studio had been renovated from an old house. Eric had told Melanie that other
than the inconvenience of buying stuff, the price of the house was the cheapest in Oskon City.
Eric immediately denied Eugene’s guess. “Impossible. No one would play such a prank here on the
city’s outskirts. There are not even many people staying around this area.
“Moreover, who would have passed by? Even if Mr. Fuller did leave, he wouldn’t turn off the electrical
circuits in his research studio, would he?
“You’re just overthinking. To be honest, this electrical circuit has been running for seven to eight years.
It’s normal for the circuits to wear off. Maybe it’s just an
Chapter 602
unlucky incident.”

Eric spoke as he checked the models in the research studio. Then, he scratched his head as he talked
to Melanie when he walked out, “But I might not be able to give Xander the documents he wanted
today.
“Why don’t you come back again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?”
Melanie and Eugene looked at each other. None of them mentioned the electrical circuit anymore. They
headed back to the hotel after excusing themselves.
Lee did not follow them. He had been working in the car. When he saw Eugene and Melanie, he
greeted Eugene, “Mr. Scott.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEugene asked, “Did you notice anyone coming down here?”
Lee recalled and said, “Mr. Fuller.”
“Only Mr. Fuller?”
“Yes. He looked like he was in a hurry. What’s wrong?”
Eugene’s expression was gloomy, but he soon hid it.
Melanie looked at Lee when she heard Lee’s reply.
The house looked antique and only had stairs. It had six stories, and Mr. Fuller’s research studio was
on the third floor.
Lee would notice if anyone passed by.
A doubtful expression flashed across Melanie’s face. Before she could think, Eugene said, “Let’s head
back to the hotel.”
Melanie looked at him and hesitated to speak. In the end, she chose to remain silent. Looking at the
ground, she got into the car.
Melanie got lost in thought on the way back as she felt something was off. The incident did not look like
an accident.
