Miranda: “Who was it?”

Paul: “The person was wearing a mask, so their identity isn’t clear, but it’s certain they’re someone from Bedford College.”

Miranda pressed her lips together and replied, “We mustn’t let them get away with this. It was a virus this time. Who knows what it could be next time?”

Paul glanced at his phone and chuckled softly.

The IT technician beside him looked puzzled, wondering what was so amusing. The sudden chuckle had startled him slightly. It was quite unsettling.

Paul: “Alright. I’ll do as you say.”

Miranda smiled. She then put down her phone and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.

Meanwhile, the throbbing headache from his hangover made Hansel wince in pain. He sat up and glanced outside the window; it was already dark. He realized he had slept the whole day.

His stomach began to ache faintly again. He expertly fished out the stomach pain medicine from the bedside drawer, gulping it down with the leftover cold water.

The icy liquid traveled down his throat and into his stomach, jolting him awake.
