The computer screen, which was initially black, automatically switched on without triggering any alarm or self-destruct system.
Huo Yulin was still trying to open the metal cabinet door. He held his breath as he worked on it. However, he failed again.
His face darkened.
He had one more chance.
If he still didn't succeed this time, locking the cabinet was one thing, but he was afraid that the alarm would be triggered.
Huo Yulin inhaled deeply and tried one last time. He did not have much time left with the surveillance system.
After Huo Yao hacked into the computer, she clicked on it. The temperature in her eyes gradually dropped when she saw the files on medicine.
When the countdown reached one and a half minutes, Huo Yao saw something strange on the screen. She switched back to the second floor's surveillance feed.
Three people were walking out of the elevator.
Huo Yao pressed on her earpiece. "Someone is coming. You have to leave now."
Huo Yulin did not reply. He was still focused on opening the cabinet. He could not let his efforts go to waste at this stage.
Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for him to come here again.
Huo Yao looked at the screen. When Huo Yulin remained silent, she said, "The surveillance system will be unlocked in 80 seconds."
Sweat trickled down Huo Yulin's forehead and seeped into his mask.
Finally, on the 70th second, the metal cabinet door opened with a click.
Huo Yulin heaved a sigh of relief.
The metal cabinet was divided into several compartments. It looked like a mini fridge, and each compartment contained medicine of various colors.
Huo Yulin's eyes landed on the blue medicine on the third compartment. His eyes darkened. He quickly opened the drawer and took out nearly 50 vials of medicine.
There was a sink next to him. He took all the medicine and poured it into the sink.
Huo Yulin's lips twitched under his mask as he watched the blue medicine flow into the drain. He turned on the tap and rinsed off the remaining medicine.
The robotic voice came through the earpiece again.
"There are 40 seconds left. Three people are coming out of the elevator at the southwest entrance. They are heading in your direction. If you don't leave now, I'm afraid you won't be able to get away."
Huo Yao looked at the surveillance feed and spoke quickly.
"Got it," replied Huo Yulin. He walked back to the metal cabinet door and quickly pulled it open.
The upper compartment did not contain any potions or anything else. It was empty.
Huo Yulin closed the cabinet in disappointment. His eyes landed on the laptop in the middle of the room and he hurried over.
He clicked on a few disks to take a look. Apart from some drug research reports, there was no special information archived, nor was there anything he was looking for.
Huo Yulin had no choice but to turn off the computer and head for the door.
Huo Yao looked at the group of people walking down the corridor. Then she glanced at Huo Yulin, who had just stepped out of the lab. Her face turned solemn and she said in a deep voice, "It's too late. They are coming."
Huo Yulin put his hands into his pockets and looked up to see the person walking over from the other end of the corridor.
The three people who were walking over also saw Huo Yulin standing at the door. The moment they saw him, they subconsciously stopped in their tracks.
