Soon, Frank and Sue were back in Shanton.


    Igor and the other scientist were on hand to receive them outside the researchb, since Sue had called ahead to inform them that Frank wasing.


    "Mr. Frankton!" Igor hurried to him as Frank arrived. "Are you feeling any difort? If you do, please inform me right away. Theb will do everything possible to help."


    Frank smiled, shaking his head. "What are you saying? Your skill is plenty trustworthy-we''re just here to see how much progress you have made on your research. It would be ideal if even the average Joe could benefit from the regenerative serum."


    Igorughed. "In that case, we wee your visit with open arms!"


    While Frank was conversing with Igor, he was keeping an eye on a quiet youth nearby.


    He was around his twenties and sported a buzz cut, and everything from his appearance to his eyes appeared to be local. Only Frank was aware that he was actually a foreigner.


    Before long, Frank strode up to Robbie and asked Igor, "Who''s this? I don''t think I''ve seen him before."


    "The boy''s name is Rohan," Igor quickly said. "You wouldn''t have heard, sir, but he''s actually a crank who never attended university and was born to be a biologist! He''s helped considerably in my research and its sess, but I guess he''s the type who keeps a low-profile.


    "He didn''t want to be credited in our research, so I didn''t introduce him before!"


    Frank nodded. "It''s good being modest, though keeping a low-profile for other reasons would make this apletely different story."


    There was a brief twitch in Robbie''s eyes that was soon gone, while Igor appeared confused. "What does that mean, Mr. Frankton?"


    Frank ignored him and asked Robbie, "Since you''re the reason I''ve gained such a special ability, would you allow me to buy you lunch?"


    Robbie quickly shook his head. "You tter me, sir. I simply nudged Dr. Leitner in the right direction-it was him who aplished this, not me."


    Igor quickly said, "Sorry, Mr. Frankton. Please understand that the kid really isn''t a fan of socializing!"


    Beside Frank, Sue asked grumpily, "What, so you''re not going to humor Mr. Frankton?"


    Robbie quickly threw his hands up. "No way! I''d never say no if Mr. Frankton insists..."


    Since they were being too enthusiastic, Robbie had no choice but to go with Frank and Sue.


    Amusingly, Igor tried to join them but was rejected.


    That left him perplexed-did he lose Sue''s favor?


    But that could not be the case! He had always been loyal and refused the many


    offers to poach him, so why was Sue doing this?


    Still, his phone jingled while he was left perplexed.


    It was a text from Sue. [Don''t get paranoid. Rohan is merely a pseudonym the kid''s name is actually Robbie, and he has close ties with Mr. Frankton. He came here for Mr. Frankton in the first ce. Mr. Frankton wants to be gentle and doesn''t want to get rough, which was why he put up an act.]


    Igor was relieved at


    that-fortunately, Sue was not


    doubting him like the rest, or hol


    would have to start contemting his future.


    Still, he was surprised that Rohan was actually a foreigner... how amusing!


    And he had history with Mr. Frankton on top of that? It was obvious that he was a big deal!


    Meanwhile, Sue, Frank, and Robbie arrived at a hotel.


    After taking their seats, Frank asked,


    "How''s life here treating you? Are you getting used to it? I''m sure that home is where the heart is-no matter how good the food here can be, it won''t measure up to your country''s steaks, don''t you agree?"


    Surprised, Robbie eximed, "Surely you jest, Mr. Frankton!"
