I Hate That I Loved You!

46- Hackathon (5)

The leader of The Gladiator team was not happy.

He looked at the scoreboard and clenched his fist.

He just got the message from their boss that they had to win this competition by any means.

He looked at the pink-haired girl who single-handedly finished the task in just 15 minutes.

Indeed, she is a genius!

But if she will be present in the final round then chances of their winning will be very slim.

After thinking for a while, his eye turned evil.

He cannot do any physical harm to anyone or else his team will be straight away disqualified.
So he decided to play a prank!

He called a female team member of his team and whispered something in her ear.

Soon the timer for the second round ended.

No other teams were able to destroy malware and clean the system.

Few of them were annoyed by their defeat, but the never thought that the difficulty level of this task will be this top notch high.

They didn't expect that it will be new advanced malware. They needed some more time to decode and study it. Only after that they would have destroyed it.

Nonetheless, other teams looked towards the Team Alpha and Team Gladiator with great respect in their eyes.

They both were indeed genius to complete this task.

They congratulated both the teams and left the competition ground and occupied their seats among the audience.

After the second round, the emcee announced a half an hour break.

The final round will start after this break.

Rizi looked around for Elder Song and saw him walking towards them.

"Any call you received??" She hastily asked with a worried look in her eyes.

"Yes. Everything is good. There is nothing to worry about. He is doing well." Elder Song patted her head.

Rizi was like a daughter to him. He understands how worry she is about Leo and his health.

Rizi sighed in relief. "Thank you."

At the same time, Abby stood up. "A1, I am going to use the restroom. Will be back in a jiffy."

"Ok. Fix your Bluetooth device before leaving." Rizi whispered in her ear and tapped her shoulders.

Abby nodded and fixed her mask, cap, and her in-ear Bluetooth device.

She left the floor and walked towards the corridor.

She came out of the competition floor and walked towards the end of the corridor.

As soon as she reached at the end of the corridor, she saw a female restroom sign. But outside it was cleaning in progress board. She frowned at it.

"Mam, this restroom is getting cleaned and will be closed for an hour. Let me guide you to the other restroom." A waiter's polite voice was heard from behind.

Abby turned around and squinted her eyes. She nodded and followed him. The waiter sincerely took her to the restroom to the other side of the building.

Once reached, he bowed and left.

Abby didn't felt anything suspicious. She went inside the restroom.
