「Immediate Time Skip ;
Five Years In.

Saeyoung typed away, giving his eyes a rest every once in a while, assuming that he was straining them too much. But in reality, he really did strain them because of his sleep deprivation nowadays. His room was always infested with trash and darkness, but he always kept in mind of when to clean and when to take a rest. However long he tried to keep track, he never seemed to stop tiring himself out.

He glanced at the familiar photograph of his first family. Every time he looked at that very picture, all he ever thought of was Saeran. Long before he left him and his adoptive parents, he always thought about him. Saeyoung didn't think too much about the younger brother nowadays, because all he ever thought was, 'Is he still alive?' or 'Where did he run off to?'.

Saeyoung resorted to breaking in through another firewall, making sure he erased any piece of evidence that could track his current location. One, two, three...he took awareness towards his breathing, trying to calm down. In this difficult systematic, Saeyoung had been warned not to underestimate the owner's perspective in their coding expectations. The owner seemed to have expected what a hacker might or might not do, and thoroughly created false information as Saeyoung went by. Because of this, it became much more harder to assume which is right and which is wrong. Breathing techniques seemed to sooth him.

"So all I have to do is hack into people's accounts and tell you their personal info? Seems legit."

"Yep! It's as easy as that. Jihyun and I will be recruiting more members for the time being. So far we have five - Jihyun, you, Yoosung, Jumin and I."

"Oh, okay. Want me to look for more suitable members?"

"No, no, it's okay! I already have another person in mind that I might check out."

If you think that hacking is all easy and stress reducing, it seems that you've never particularly tried the more difficult levels in such a skill. Saeyoung isn't surpassing the level of amateur, and this task isn't even all that difficult if you were taking this as a full profession with many years of skill and knowledge.

And as you can see, this man had definitely took this profession seriously.

"When will I see Saeran?"
