10 'SOSO drug'

SOSO drug? The name is... hilarious!"

"Well... its not an official chemical name... it's just a nickname. It will take time to give it a name.... after many researches. SOSO actually...means 'not good but not bad' clearly...you know as the name states...it can be useful at the same time dangerous!"

"Dangerous....and useful?"

"It's actually a harmful drug indeed.... but it's definitely a valuable drug... As per our current researches... it's actually a saviour..for cultivation and agriculture...when mixed with fertilizers... but it can be a disaster for us, human beings. When Liu Tei mentioned about the pandemic... that's when I thought about it... being exposed, in large amounts can definitely cause a disaster!!"

"You're thinking too much...Shin...your work must be a burden to you.."

"He knows that I am incharge of the research, on the drug SOSO...which was given to me 3 months ago.... But, I don't know what's with the pandemic and all he was saying..."

"I see..."

"I kept asking him the next day..once I was sober... and he kept giving me lame excuses and even ignored my calls....he stopped opening up to me...I started having my doubts...and he was definitely acting weird... also, our work started overshadowing each other's feelings...so gradually we lost our connection...So I took the stand and ended up things.."

Shin sits gloomy, half sighing.. as she hardly managed to sip a spoon of wonton soup.

"Looks like you still regret..."

"I don't know...what if all my misunderstandings started by something irrelevant...I mean...me doubting him for connecting a drug and a pandemic arise...Does it make sense?!"

Zhao dao suddenly makes an attempt to change the topic.

"Ahh... whatever..eat your soup before it gets cold."

After two days, Zhao dao makes it to the research unit, very early than usual.

"Sir, Today..you're very early to the unit building!!"

Zhao dao smirked at Mark and made his way to the lab.

Zhao couldn't erase his mind off, from the thought of what Shin had said the other day.

Previous days' news reported, a new terrorist territory forming in China. Reports say they could be the JSS terrorist group a highly dangerous gang.

All these thoughts kept hammering Zhao dao's mind. He felt awful...in a way like never before.

"I wonder why there are so many tough topics in the world....these days... and why am I feeling so restless...as if something dangerous is gonna happen... what is this...?"

Could it be a warning....for something huge?!!"

Being at the lab Zhao dao, he rests on a chair, thinking hard. Suddenly his gaze falls on the skull, in the cubicle. He stared at it for some time and tried to push away all his worrisome thoughts.
