"Robert Oz?" Mitch exclaimed, and his expression didn't seem happy. "I know you"
"Not for fame, I presume" the man murmured as soon as he entered. “Mr. Morgan, Miss Campbell, Miss Hardy, it's nice to meet you. As for the two of you, it's nice to see you again” he said looking at Ian and Alan.
"We're glad to meet you, Mr. Oz" the two of them replied.
"Do you know each other?" Mitch asked surprised.
“Yes, it was a long time ago. After all, we were both biologists. We did some research together, and I introduced him to Ian” Alan explained. "Then he began to take an interest in genetic engineering and we moved away"
“Oh… I understand” Mitch said, but suddenly Jamie exclaimed, “Wait a minute! So you are THAT Dr. Robert Oz? The one who was expelled from the scientific community for having theorized the possibility of an awakening of the cognitive abilities of animals?"
"My reputation precedes me apparently" Robert grumbled. "I guess you haven't heard much good about me"
