Chapter 1045 This Better Be Important
Things were moving relatively quickly, quicker than Tom had imagined, as he stood inside one of the NIRV buildings with a guest badge around his neck.
It wasnât one of the facilities he had worked at before, but all of NIRV felt quite similar. The whiteness of the flooring, the walls, even the lights displayed a stark white glow.
It almost reminded Tom of a hospital, yet at the same time, a hospital never felt this fancy. The seating areas, the decorations, and even the curved oval reception area.
It was certainly a place with money, which came as no surprise.
What did surprise Tom was that theyâd let him come as a guest to a facility where neither he nor his father worked.
In the end, Tom did ask his father for a favor, requesting access to visit as a guest at a certain facility of NIRV, which had locations all over the country.
Yet with how many secrets they held, he thought it would be more difficult. As for why this facility was chosen in particular, it was the one mentioned in Garyâs fatherâs story.
As a guest, Tom had been given a tour around the facility by one of the fellow researchers. As they walked around, Tom kept asking questions to try and find out where Rickle Epman was.
All he learned was that Rickle Epman visited this facility a lot, but he also visited other facilities, so it was hard to know if the person in question was even here.
To be careful, Tom asked other questions as well.
âAs for the other founders, do they frequently go to the other facilities?â Tom asked as they walked through the hallways.
âThe other two founders... well, Rumper Karn usually stays at one facility. Itâs a large place, but further out. Not many transfer out there.â
âAs for Tinth, heâs more of a passive founder of NIRV. You could almost say heâs retired. You have to remember, theyâre all getting old now; heâs the most passive, with a hands-off approach.â
âI guess Rickle is really the only one thatâs on the move all the time.â
Tom was thankful that was the case. They knew Rumper was the man behind some of the infected solutions, but they werenât sure about the others.NoÌv(el)B\\jnn
He started to think back, to when heâd even given Gary a piece of chocolate, almost killing his friend. Beyond that, how Gary had ended up getting payback for those who laid hands on him.
And now, how Gary was secretly looking after his family from matters involving Slough and more. Things even Tomâs parents werenât aware of.
âAh, thatâs a shame,â Tom answered. âActually, I was wondering if thereâs another person I could thankâis there a researcher by the name of Dean Dem here?â
The man pulled out his tablet. He couldnât say it was a name heâd heard, but he also knew he didnât know every staff memberâs name.
âOh, there is a Dean Dem who works here, but it doesnât state what his role is... just wait here a moment, and Iâll see what I can do.â
After saying no to Tomâs first request, the researcher didnât want to disappoint Tom again, which was why he gave this one a try.
And if the person in question was important, it would have given him some title, so the man didnât mind asking.
While waiting, Tom sat down on the sofa. He saw the researcher talking back and forth with the reception staff, then the researcher headed off somewhere.
Around ten minutes had passed, to the point Tom thought they might have forgotten about him.
âSo, it was you? You were the one who asked for Dean... thatâs odd, I donât even know who you are,â a voice said from behind.
The hairs on Tomâs back stood up. He hadnât even felt anyone behind him, but when he looked, he saw a tall man with dark black hair.
Immediately, everyone in the area gave a small bow to the man.
âSir Rickle!â the staff members said.
Looking at the man, Tom couldnât help but gulp.
âSo this is one of the NIRV founders... Rickle Epman.â
âA person Iâve never met, using a name that shouldnât be known... this better be important,â Rickle stated.
