Once the trip was over, I did ask Chislon and he said that we were indeed visiting their Research Department; as I had foreseen.
He also stated that there were at least 7 Departments in each Division and blah blah blah, but still, they didn't explain anything that made them so special.
There was something amiss about them.
After that, Chislon dropped us at the Imperial Resident and said that something came up, then left.
The mansion we would be staying in was much grander than expected but I didn't have time to describe it as I had important things to do.
"So, why are you following me?"
Alexander asked when he realized that I had tailed him into his chamber.
Ignoring his question, I sat on the couch and expressed my unhappiness instead.
"I'm disappointed."
"What do you expect from them anyway?"
