Zack moved the mouse, eyeing the bright computer screen with a frown. "Since the Cyber Crime Division don't work on weekends, we can't stop the scams that come up during the weekends. We have to find the scammers before Saturday."

Zack pulled out a list of steps, smacking his hand over the large board like a drill sergeant.

"The police report will be processed on Monday. We need to find the account before then, and return the money. Because even lending the account is a crime. If we want to stop this from getting worse, we need to cacth these scammers as soon as possible." Zack finished.

Mira hummed, a worried expression taking over her face. "Zack... Is there even a way to do that? How will we find them?"

Y/n shrugged. "I can just call my frie-"

Zack quickly placed his finger over Y/n's lips, shushing her. "Let me have this one."

Y/n raised an eyebrow then shrugged. "Okay then..." She said, a bit uncertain

Zack pulled out sheet of paper, that listed on there were three neat rows of IDs.

Zack grinned. "I searched the numbera on the HIPHONE X scam... And these IDs popped up."

Zack's smug grin widened as he began to explain his solution. "They use multiple IDs with a single number, you see. If an account's blocked, they can just use another one. But burner phones have to be bought."

Y/n hum, her eyes scanning the sheet of paper as Jiho exclaims. "I see!! You're a genius!!"

"Right, then. Let's split up and search them." Zack said with a smirk.

Zoe exclaimed. "I-I see!! So if we search for these IDs, something might come up!! Zack's... actually pretty smart..."

"BINGO." Zack yelled, as he threw himself into the chair, sitting comfortably in front of the computer.

Vasco sweatdropped, clearing his throat. "S-Sir. I didn't understand any of that. Could you maybe repeat that please?"

Zack deadpanned. "Cadet. You can just go home.... Now. Let's do this!!"

Y/n hissed, thinking to herself. 'I'm not sure this'll work... I'll keep Kouji on standby... Just in case.'

After what seemed like hours of searching account after account and ID after ID, the group finally leaned back in their chairs, glancing over to Zack.

"Z-Zack..." Mira muttered.

Jiho cleared his throat, nervously. "There's... Nothing coming up."

Zack's face contorted, his expression going sour. "Th-That's weird... Its should work..." He whispered, sadly.

Zoe sighed, crossing her arms. "If they made this to scam people... There's no way they'd leave a trace."

Mira stuttered, forcing a kind smile. "Th-That's okay! We're only just getting started!" She said. "What's the next plan, Zack?"

Zack slumped his head on the desk, sulking. "There is none." He wailed.

Zoe shook her head. "He's last in class. Don't expect too much."

Y/n nudged Zoe, shooting her a look. She walks over to Zack, hearing him draw another sad whimper.

Y/n sighed, with a small smile, patting Zack's back. "Hey, don't be sad. It was a good idea. Let's just keep moving onto the next plan. We'll figure something out. Okay?"
