Just as Qiao Jing was about to open the door, the red alert lights of the research institute suddenly flashed, plunging the entire institute into a sea of red accompanied by the urgency of an alarm sound.
Seeing this commotion, Qiao Jing immediately knew that her escape had been discovered and prepared to turn the door handle directly.
But just as she was about to open the door, an iron gate descended rapidly from above the exit, intending to block her path.
To avoid injury, Qiao Jing had no choice but to retract her hand and then stood still, waiting for Mr. John and his team to come over.
Actually, she wasn't worried that Mr. John and the others would lay hands on her, since she still had the identity of Professor Qiao; firstly, these people wouldn't dare to harm her, and secondly, they still needed her help with some matters.
Therefore, if her attempt to escape failed, the most that would happen was an increase in the intensity of her surveillance.
