Mirabella nodded, not probing further. She drained her last cup of tea and stood up room. Still got two essays to finish.” “Alright, don’t stay up too late,” Shawn cautioned.

“Mhm.” “I'm heading to my.

With a polite nod to the others in the living room, Mirabella quickly gathered her things and retreated to her room.

After a refreshing shower, she sat down at her computer desk, booted up her laptop, and entered safe mode to punch in a series of commands.

The screen soon turned black, flickering with lines of code not much different from what she had seen on Curtis’ computer next door.

The screen quickly reset to the initial interface, but now the difficulty level had changed from A to A+.
