However, when Jolie Queen charged into Zamri Hospital with the other journalists earlier, all they saw was green smoke spilling in from the vents, and the faint scent in the air was clearly something medicinal.
And the official statement Zamri Hospital gave was as conventional as it could get-that the smoke was saerosol antioxidant that purified the air.

She even chose a moment when no one was watching and slipped into the hospital storeroom where they kept most of their medical supplies.
The nurse on duty could not be blamed either. She had already been taken ill by the toxic gas attack earlier in the day, so she left work sooner than usual without checking the locks twice.
That in turn allowed Jolie the chance to slip in.
However, before she could look around, the nurse on duty had decided to turn back, checking the locks again despite being ill. She was even sweating buckets when she realized that she had forgotten to lock the door.
She quickly did so and left without looking back.
That in turn meant Jolie was locked inside the storeroom, and when the nurse's footsteps faded and silence ensued, she sneaked out from behind a giant crate.
She looked for a long while, but there was nothing wrong-every batch and bottle of medicine had not expired, and there were no inconsistencies that indicated they were counterfeit medicine.

Right after she sent the text, she heard tires screeching outside the storehouse, followed by plenty of footsteps.
Jolie looked up, a broad grin appearing over her lips-so something really was up, and she was going to catch it when it happened! With that in mind, Jolie sneaked behind one of the crates to avoid being caught.
Creak- The storehouse roller shutters opened, and Jolie saw a truck parked outside the storehouse with a ton of grunts around it.
"Yes, I've arrived, Mr. Commissioner... Yes, yes, yes, I'll soon be done on my end!" At the stime, a geezer whose face was hidden under the glare was speaking reverently over the phone.
He then waved and barked at the grunts, who quickly unloaded the crates from the truck tidily across the storeroom before moving e identical crates that were in the storeroom onto the truck. Content belongs to en.kikistories"What the hell..." Jolie was left gaping as she watched in her corner.
