Sarah gave tracking device which they got out of Jesse's tooth to Felix. "See what you can find out about this. It came out of a tooth. Don't power it on without a signal blocker, we don't know if anyone is still listening, and it attracts trouble."
Felix nodded in understanding. "Anna made sure I have authorization to use equipment in White corp. lab until Orion Enterprise moves."
Sarah likes that very much. With Felix getting permission to use lab in White corp. he does not need to go to Seattle. "Great! If you are going to do it when Anna and Jeff are not there, let me know and I can escort you to the lab if needed. Aiden and I have access to those facilities… Also, we need you to make few devices. One is a signal blocker."
"Anything specific?" Felix is not sure why he needs to design something that already exists, but Sarah knows that signal blockers exist, she just told him not to power up that tracker without one, so she must have some customization requests. Knowing Sarah… it's not going to be a simple task.
When Sarah spoke next, she confirmed Felix's suspicions: "The ones available have a short range. I want you to maximize range, and to make it adjustable. If it can go to one kilometer radius that will be great. The more the better."
Felix almost chocked on his drink. "One kilometer? The best signal blockers are up to one hundred meters, and those are military grade. You are asking me to make that ten times more powerful!"
"Yes. I know you like challenges." Sarah smiled. "And also, it will need to have settings for exceptions, so that we can specify what frequencies are being blocked, and which ones are not. It would be good if we can target specific cell phones as well."
Felix exhaled feeling a headache coming. He likes challenges, but this… might be too much. "Why do you need something like that?"
Aiden answered this question: "We want our house to be as a safe place. So that no one can listen in or send signals without our permission." After this with Jesse, Aiden saw as a necessity to have a 'safe house' which can't be spied upon. "Idea is that if someone with a tracker enters our property, tracker does not work. Also, we want to be able to block wireless communications without impacting our cell phones. I will provide you with different scenarios so that you grasp the requirements better."
Felix listened to Aiden's explanation and nodded in understanding, but he has his concerns. "I'm confident that I can handle electronics, however this is heavy in the physics department."
"Isn't Damien university professor in physics?" Sophia said between bites of her Caesar salad.
Felix paused for a moment. "Yes."
"You can collaborate with him." Sophia suggested.
Felix thought for some time before nodding. Working with his father, together… it might be fun.
"If you want to bring Damien and his family here, we have plenty of guestrooms in our home. Or you can use our apartment as well. They don't need to stay in the hotel." Sarah offered, and Aiden confirmed that he agrees with it. Both of them have a good impression of Damien and his family.
Felix rubbed his nose while looking at Sarah. "You said that there is more than one device…"
Sarah was happy that he remembered, because she forgot. "Yes. I want to be able to connect to closed circuit network without hard-wire connection."
Felix coughed a bit. "What?"
Sarah was entertained with Felix's reaction. "Even the closed circuit network will have some signal leaks, it's not full proof. It's faint, but it can be captured. I want you to create a device which will capture these leaks and provide wireless connection to that closed-circuit network… basically, I want you to open the closed network."
Felix pinched roof of his nose. "Where do you get these ideas?"
"This idea came because we need to deal with closed-circuit networks more often than what we want to, and we are putting ourselves in danger while looking for an outlet where we can plug in. If I can have a device which can be within some distance of that network without the actual need to plug in, that will literally be a life saver…" Sarah observed Felix for few seconds. His expression told her that he is at a loss, not knowing how to make this work.
Sarah broke into a smug smile. "By the way, I have a prototype which shows that it's possible. When you come and visit our home, I will be happy to show it to you."
"You have a working prototype?" Felix could not hide his surprise.
Sarah was proud to see Felix's reaction. It's one thing to get praises and recognition from people who are not experts in the field, but to be able to get this kind of response from Felix who already created so many amazing devices is a truly great thing.
Sarah grinned and nodded. "Your sister-in-law is awesome. Feel free to think that way, even if you don't say it at loud."
Aiden looked at Sarah with a complex expression and mumbled: "Now I know from where Ade got his attitude."
Sarah turned to Aiden. "I heard that."
They all laughed.
"When do you need these?" Felix asked Sarah.
"I would appreciate if you work on the network opener first. As I said, I have a working prototype, but performance is not stable. We are planning to check out the warehouse in Chicago, and this will be an important device to ensure our success… We need to be careful in case the warehouse is manned with people from one of the Eastern European families. We can't risk being caught… it will be difficult to escape unscathed. I hope you all understand what I'm talking about." Sarah could not hide that she is uneasy about that mission.
If it's up to her, they would not go to that warehouse. Knowing that it's tied to King, means that it's trouble. But they need to investigate it if they want to gather more clues toward who is watching them.. And she fears that they already delayed too much because every day those people are watching them and getting closer, while six of them are clueless how to defend themselves.
