While we were agonizing in the safe 5 hours passed. We've got starved. Mark has got a few sweets, but it wasn't enough. Charlotte was working on a teleportation system, but it was difficult to translate from an unknown language and code at the same time, eventually, she managed to unlock the multicolored portal in the safe. She said we have about 10 seconds to jump into. I jumped first and they jumped after me. David jumped at the eleventh hour whereupon Charlotte's laptop switched off due to the overload of the current. The lights went out a few blocks away. We lost access to the light for several days, which didn't have a significant impact. After a couple of days, we decided to rebuild the abandoned house in the alley as now we had money in Charlotte's bank account. We had to do a great deal of work.
The first aspect to point out is that we hired about 20 robots, and they did their work in under 1,5 hours which was fantastic. We also bought a new laptop for Charlotte as her previous one wasn't working due to the last event. She had all her files reserved in a flashcard, so there was nothing to worry about. It was the 8th of November and also Leo's birthday. So we wanted to make an unexpected birthday party. Charlotte said she increased the lasting of holograms for 7 hours. I said to Leo "We are running out of some products" but we weren't actually. I planned to distract him from the party we were preparing for him. Therefore, we set off to the shopping center. While we were shopping, they started decorating a room with balloons and setting up the tables. Mark's been learning instructions for spaceship management, so he couldn't help. Lucy was helping David to make a cake in the kitchen. Anthony was packaging the gifts. When we came back Leo was surprised, turns out he had completely forgotten about his birthday. The marvelous cake was baked and already put onto the average size table...
After eating the cake we turned on the music and started dancing.
The next day Mark said he somehow read the instructions and tried his best to memorize them, so we had to hijack the space shuttle. Charlotte was looking for a good one to test. Her computer found 176 shuttles around the city. The closest one was 8 miles away, so we collected our stuff and navigated to this shuttle, when we came we saw that shuttle was quite terrible and must've been repaired. We investigated inside of it. However, we didn't find anything except some detestable rats and spiders. So we wanted to fix all the shuttle's problems ourselves. It would take at least a few weeks to go undergo such a difficult task.
