Energisch stiefelte der Weihnachtsmann durch die Gänge – natürlich nicht im roten Feiertagsmantel, sondern in dezenter Alltagskleidung. Diese Zauber-Spritze, die Rudolfs Augen geheilt hatte, musste er sich genauer ansehen. Schließlich entdeckte er einen Fahrstuhl, mit dem er das Foyer erreichte. Hier traf sich gerade eine Besuchergruppe, die die Forschung und Entwicklung besuchen wollte. Das klang genau richtig! Da wurden bestimmt Medikamente wie diese Zauberspritze erfunden! Der Weihnachtsmann folgte der Gruppe zum Gebäude S107 und dann durch verschiedene Labore. Die Arbeit der Wissenschaftler war wirklich faszinierend! Doch was war das? Beim Blick aus dem Fenster erspähte er durch seine Brille etwas Überraschendes. Energetically, Santa Claus strode through the floors - not in his red coat, of course, but in discreet everyday clothes. He had to take a closer look at this magic syringe that had healed Rudolf's eyes. Finally, he spotted an elevator, which he used to reach the foyer. A group of visitors was just meeting there to visit Research and Development. That sounded just right! They must have invented drugs like this magic syringe there! Santa followed the group to building S107 and then through various labs. The work of the scientists was really fascinating! But what was that? Looking out the window, he spied something surprising through his glasses.
