The first few days went smoothly. It was even quite repetitive and suspicious for the four agents. Lena was making reports during the day hoping to find out more. Dimitrov played the security guard and Markus the mad scientist. At the end of the fourth day, they found themselves in an empty room. Lena asked them.

"So, anything new?

Markus answered her

- For the moment not really."

Dimitrov lowered his eyes to the floor and they wondered how long they would wait. Miyu confirmed that for the time being, the company had not given them any new orders. After a few minutes of discussion, they all went back to their rooms.

When Miyu woke up in the room machine, she noticed something suspicious. In front of the laboratory, a truck was waiting patiently. However, there was no mention of a truck coming that day in her reports.

Suddenly the truck exploded and blew out part of the wall of the laboratory. Several cars arrived and raced into the base. On their side, the three agents rushed to try to find Robert Oppenheimer after Miyu informed them of the situation.

Suddenly Lena and Dimitrov saw Markus with Oppenheimer on his back, visibly knocked out. Lena looked at him.

"What the hell, Markus! What did you do?

- He refused to follow me so I had to force him a little.

- Do you think that's a bit forced?" Dimitrov replied.

Markus rolled his eyes. They decided to leave through a back door. They saw Miyu in a car heading their way. The agents got in with Oppenheimer still knocked out. Miyu looked questioningly at Lena, who simply replied:

"Don't ask questions and drive.

As Miyu drove down the road, Lena wondered how to get out of this situation. How to explain to Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, that a group of mercenaries was trying to kill him. Especially how to explain the role of the four agents. Markus explained that he had to use a dose of sedative because Oppenheimer had categorically refused to follow him. This left the four agents a few hours to try to find a new place to land. The machine was programmed to follow the agents, Dimitrov looked at his tablet and programmed the machine to stay in camouflage mode to follow the agents.
