“Alright, the situation is resolved. Stop standing around here and watching. Everyone disperse and go do what you need to do.”
Isaias sent all the workers back to work and then looked at Lizzie.
His expression on his face was even more awkward.
We’ve been messing around for so long, Johanna, who said her hand was burned and went to deal with it, and Gabriel, who went to help, haven’t come back yet.
Isaias couldn’t hide it on his face, “Ms. Trevino, how about… I send someone to take a look?”
Lizzie shook her head, Johanna didn’t want to see herself, so she kept dragging her feet, Gabriel naturally had to coax her on the side, and wouldn’t come back.
“No need, Mr. Hatfield. The work schedule is the same whether I tell you directly or not.”
Isaias cursed Johanna and Gabriel in his heart, with a polite smile on his face, “Let’s talk in my office.”
Two people went to Isaias’s office together, took out the design drawings, and started discussing the arrangements for adjusting the production line directly.
Isaias listened carefully until Lizzie finished.
“Ms. Trevino, don’t worry, we definitely did as you said!”

The two of them talked for a while and agreed that Lizzie would come over again tomorrow to help them organize the production.
Lizzie glanced at the clock on the wall, it was almost time to get off work.
“That’s it for today, Mr. Hatfield will take care of the rest.” She left early to wait for Tabitha at the door.
Isaias shook hands with Lizzie and gave her a temporary work permit.
Lizzie came out of the office building, and it was getting dark.
Winter nights come early.
The security guard at the gate saw her and gave her a warm smile.
“Miss, is everything done?”
Lizzie nodded, with a faint smile on her lips, “Yeah.”
“Are you leaving? Let me open the door for you,” the security guard said, taking the keys to unlock the door.
“I had to wait for someone.”
The guard quickly said, “It’s cold outside, do you want to come inside and wait?”
Lizzie didn’t refuse, she just said “thank you” and followed the security guard into the mailroom.
It was much warmer inside than outside.
After going in, Lizzie rubbed her hands.

The enthusiasm of this security guard reminded her of the past, security guard who used to give her a hard time along with Mattie.

Why did the old man quit and get replaced by that person?
Lizzie took the initiative and asked, “Sir, how long have you been working here?”
The old man poured Lizzie a cup of hot water and cheerfully replied, “It’s been quite a few years, I’ve been working here since our factory was established.”
Lizzie asked again, “When are you going to retire?”
“I’m almost there, just give me another two or three years, then I’ll go back and take care of my grandchildren.”
Upon hearing this, Lizzie felt a slight flutter in her heart.
She remembered that the security guard at the gate here was changed a year later. If the old man wanted to work for another two or three years, that was obviously not a normal retirement.
“Hey, how are you feeling, grandpa? You look pretty healthy to me.”
The old man waved his hand, touched his chest and lungs, “I got injured during the war before, my body isn’t in great shape.”
Lizzie whispered, “You should take care of yourself.”
The old man just took her polite concern as a younger generation’s kindness, and smiled, “Hey, thanks for caring.”
The two of them chatted casually for a few moments.
Lizzie’s mind, however, drifted away unconsciously.
She thought of Oswaldo.
With the amazing talent like Oswaldo, he must have been a well-

known figure in the scientific research community.
But in her memory, she had never heard of the name Oswaldo.
Did he have an accident or something?
What could it be? Foreign spies assassinating? Falling ill?

With Terrence around, it’s unlikely that Oswaldo had an accident. It’s more likely that he got sick.
Lizzie thought that with Oswaldo’s usual disregard for his health when he was doing research, the chances of him getting sick were pretty high.
Next time I see him, I’ll have to give him some advice.
Thinking like this, the bell for the end of work in the workshop rang.
The old man got up and was ready to open the big iron gate of the factory.
Lizzie also stood up and walked out with them, afraid of missing Tabitha in the mailroom.
The heavy green painted iron door was slowly pulled open, and Lizzie lent a hand too.
She was always at Equinox Research Laboratory, didn’t have to go out, didn’t wear gloves, touched the iron door, and her hands were frozen cold.
