Zhou Yuxuan walked quickly towards the gate of the research institute, and just as he was about to go out, he was stopped by the guard at the door.
"Sorry, you can't leave right now," the guard said expressionlessly, his tone carrying a hint of unquestionable determination. "This is the secret base of the foundation. We can help you with anything you need. And you need the commander's permission to leave."
Zhou Yuxuan was taken aback. He hadn't expected the strict management here. He frowned slightly and said patiently, "I just wanted to let Chen Xiaoru's parents know I'm safe. They must be very worried."
