[Author speaking: All the email addresses used in this chapter are made up. Please don't go around messaging a random Russian woman and falsely accusing her of second-degree murder and being involved with a secret organization that kidnaps and studies children, thank you]
Two emails were sent to Gabriel's account: The one shown above, and another one that refers to an address and a time
" Ahhh, very nice" Adams reacted to the email sarcastically.
-" How did you get anything from that? do you speak the language?" said Anna.
-"I didn't get anything. This looks like gibberish but if you look at it closely you'd notice that the placement of the apostrophes and the commas are in a similar pattern to that in English grammar. Also, I'd be concerned if you think this sounds like any language if you say it out loud. What I'm trying to say is that they're using cipher code to prevent suspicion from the authority. I said 'Very nice' sarcastically cuz it looks like we are done for... Hey, joseph c'mere" Adams called to the friend no one knew existed in the lab. He was sitting on a chair playing an FPS game on his phone. He walked to the party still on his phone "just translate this letter" Gabriel stepped aside, letting Joseph look at the mysterious email and decipher it.
-"Since when was he there?" Anna said, "He didn't question any of what was happening before?"
-To which Gabriel replied "He doesn't really care even if it's a life or death situation... he's efficient though that's all I care about"
After looking at the mail for less than a minute Joseph opened a word document and started writing and printed what he wrote to the following:
Dr. Adams, we have another child hostage
We know you like to fuck up our business even more so bring one of the children you saved with you. We know you have her. If you somehow manage to defeat me you can save the child. You do have our files so you can search up "The horse."Don't get me wrong. I'm not impressed. Dr. Henerich was a dumass and it was expected.
I W I L L M A K E Y O U R B L O O D E A T Y O U R B O D Y
Joseph then opened a browsing engine and researched the name in the email address. He took a while and opened his mouth
-"Jania Gorbunova was a student at this university. She was known for being one of the top 10 students in intelligence in 1998. The major she was in was Hematology. But at the time she was already famous for her smartness rumors about her being insane started. She was later accused of the assassination of a couple of students and her coworkers in her part-time job and one of her relatives by injecting her own blood and taking advantage of the blood type difference since her blood type is AB+ causing Hemolytic transfusion to the victim. She then claimed that she did not have any idea about what her blood type was. Because it was an unusual way of assassination, her case was dismissed. Ever since there was a rumor about her being an assassin but with only one way to kill which is using the difference in blood types which people who believed in the rumors refer to as "Hemat-ocide." And now she works in a laboratory and the address she sent you is the same one as the laboratory's address."
-"What a pain, here comes another maniac with daddy issues to kill me," said Gabriel with a disappointed look.
-"Is that another evil doctor?" Elina asked.
-"Yep and I have a feeling you could be of help kid"
-"How are you gonna get a child involved in this whole mess-?" Anna commented but Joseph interrupted before she could finish.
-"Check this out... The address they gave has a whole live map server that I can hack into and tell you where to go and where there is labeled "trap" in the same cipher language"
-"Makes sense. They made this so they don't lose any group members to their own traps." Gabriel replied.
-"Right now the server is offline so I don't think I can get it but when you guys go there -which I'm sure they'll turn it on because they'll be there- I can call you and guide you"
-"I don't think that's gonna work though" Anna interrupted "do you really think they're gonna let you in with a device? and the place might also have no signal just like that other guy had it."
-"Mhm." Gabriel nodded with approval " and that is how we will make use of the little kid! What we have right now may be unknown of origin and power but it at least works in places where there is no signal. And the time when they want us there did you see it? it's early in the morning, the same time she appeared both today and yesterday... Hey kid, do you happen to remember if you have a computer or laptop?"
-"My brother has one but he will get mad if I use it..." Ellina replied
-"Alright good... is it possible for you to open it and find this email address while you're connected with me?" Adams asked Elina while pointing to his computer's email.
Joseph interrupted "just ask her where she lives and I'll hack into the devices and find the email address."
-"Aren't we asking a lot out of a little girl?" Anna commented.
-"I am not telling you where I live! I don't tell strangers where I live!" Elina said.
-"Look now she's scared cuz you pressured her." Anna said.
-"oh shit, look kid, scratch that, you don't have to do anything."
-"Yeah, hey little monster lady? You don't have to do anything" Anna said softly, followed by a moment of silence.
There was no answer...
-"I think she left," Gabriel said trying to hide a grin because of the way Anna looks at him which made Anna embarrassed from treating him like a child so she slapped him. Gabriel backed up and held his cheek "Why do you reach out to violence every time you feel troubled by anything!"
-"Shut up! And don't treat me like I'm the child here!"
---Meanwhile---
-"Hey! Ethan!" While Ethan was sitting on the couch troubled by the news he read earlier, Elina called out to him with excitement.
-"Hey Ellen! What is it? Do you need any help with your homework?"
-"Uhm... " Elina was thinking of a way to ask her brother for his email address. She looks around the room and glares at a photo of her and her friend together hung on the wall along with other photos. "Oh! Lisa has a mail and I wanna talk to her... Can I please use your laptop?"
-"Oh she does? alright, You can go ahead but are you sure she is using email?"
-"Yes. She's using an email address"
Ethan opened his laptop and started explaining to Elina how to use electronic mail even though he was suspicious of what was going on.
"So... do you understand now how to use email?"
-"Yes!"
-"Alright, this is my address, just send it to Lisa and have fun! But don't spend a lot of time on it!"
-"Thank you, Ethan! You'll save a lot of lives!"
-"Why would that save lives?"
-"Oh... Nothing! Lisa says hi!"
