The Spy

Chapter 05

   The following day, Arial received her new identity details, which bore a striking resemblance to her actual background. In reality, she was an orphan who had excelled academically and earned a scholarship to study abroad. Upon her return, she had joined the police force as a spy. However, her fabricated identity presented a slightly altered narrative: she was an orphan who had studied abroad and was now back in the country, seeking employment opportunities.
   Arial felt a wave of relief wash over her as she reviewed her new identity. The fabricated backstory was cleverly crafted to omit any mention of her affiliation with the police, minimizing the risk of arousing Lycan's suspicion. Moreover, this new identity would enable her to seamlessly blend in and secure a job at his company, allowing her to gather intel from within.
   With her new identity in place, Arial's focus shifted to the next challenge: orchestrating a meeting with Lycan. She devised a plan to initiate contact by submitting her resume to Arfel Corporation, increasing the likelihood of catching his attention and potentially landing a job within his company. This strategic move would allow her to get closer to her target and begin gathering vital information.
   Arial sat down at her desk, focused on crafting a compelling resume that would showcase her skills and experience, tailored to the job openings at Arfel Corporation. With precision and care, she began to work on her resume, ensuring that every detail was accurate and presented in a way that would make her a strong candidate for a position at Lycan's company.
  With her resume polished and complete, Arial submitted it to Arfel Corporation, her heart filled with anticipation. Now, all she could do was wait and hope that her application would stand out from the crowd, leading to an interview invitation soon. She had done everything in her power to showcase her qualifications, and now the fate of her mission rested in the hands of the hiring team.
  Arial shifted her attention to other activities while awaiting the outcome, pouring her energy into online hacking classes. She was thriving in the course, demonstrating a natural talent for the subject matter. With her mind engaged and her skills advancing, the hours passed quickly. As the night drew to a close, Arial eventually drifted off to sleep, her thoughts still whirling with codes and cybersecurity strategies.

  At Arfel Corporation, Lycan received notification of a new resume submission - one that caught his attention due to its impressive qualifications. However, the applicant's anonymity was preserved, as no photo was attached. Initially, Lycan intended to dismiss the application, citing the company's current lack of vacancies. Nevertheless, his colleagues, impressed by the applicant's exceptional credentials, urged him to reconsider. They argued that talent like this was rare and should not be overlooked, prompting Lycan to reevaluate his decision.
  Lycan's resolve was swayed by his colleagues' persuasive arguments, and he ultimately decided to move forward with the application. The interview team was promptly notified, and they swiftly arranged a date for the mysterious candidate's interview. Unbeknownst to Lycan, the wheels were now in motion, setting the stage for a pivotal encounter with the talented individual who had captured his attention - Arial, the undercover operative.
