Brushing off her clothes, Jodi winced slightly, managing an awkward smile.
"My apologies..." "Are you alright?" Aurora's eyes widened with concern as Jodi stood as though she had merely stumbled.
"I'm alright, just feeling a bit sore, but nothing I can't handle," Jodi admitted, refusing to conceal her discomfort. Ahead, Harlee's voice was gentle.

"Understood." The core department featured a secluded back entrance, and to sidestep potential complications, Aurora guided them along this less conspicuous route. The retinal scan at this secluded back entrance was notably more rigorous.
Aurora spent a full ten seconds confirming her identity before she felt safe enough to ease the door open. With a soft creak, Aurora stepped into the laboratory, her footsteps followed by the uneven step of Jodi, who limped slightly.
From behind them, Harlee updated the system with her own retinal scan.
Feel the magic at galnovs.co As they entered, the laboratory's occupants looked up with a mix of curiosity and expectation. Jodi, draped in a plain lab coat from the basic department, moved forward tentatively.
Those within the lab who had been deeply engrossed in their experiments or busy analyzing data on expansive screens now diverted their attention to Jodi.
A voice broke the silence with a hint of irritation.
"Aurora, what's the reason for bringing someone from the basic department here? To stir up trouble?" The question hung unanswered in the air.
Jodi, feeling increasingly out of place, gripped her coat tighter, uncertain whether to advance further.
Kieran and Lenny, however, were fixated on the person behind Jodi, their expressions transforming with delight. "Harlee, you're finally here!"

Why Used there nine people here that she didn't recognize? Fleming had informed her that the core department of the National Physics Lab consisted of merely six members, so these unfamiliar people were likely borrowed from other physics institutions. Harlee gave a subtle nod and then turned to Kieran and Lenny.
"I've brought Jodi along," she stated, addressing their earlier inquiry.
Yet, the displeased voice interjected sharply, "This is the National Physics Lab, not a place for just anyone to roam freely." Before Harlee could counter, Kieran's anger flared.
"Jasiah Sugden, if you don't shut it, I'm personally escorting you out!"
