  "So, what now?"

  "This idiot messed up again, so let's help him." Zack said as we all stood around in the dark PC cafe. "Since the Cyber Crimes Division and banks rest on the weekends....we can't stop the scams that come up on weekends. We have to find the scammers before Saturday. 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" Zack explained. "If we want to stop this from getting worse....we need to catch the scammers as soon as possible. And we'll....find the culprits on our own." He added.

  "Zack, is there even a way to do that? How will we find them?"

  "I searched the numbers on the Hiphone X scam....and these IDs popped up." The boxer held up a paper covered in IDs. "They use multiple IDs with a single number, you see. If an account's blocked, they can just make another one, but burner phones have to be bought."

  "I-I see! What a genius!"

  "Let's split these up....and search for them!"

  "I-I see! If we search for those IDs, then something might come up!"

  "Bingo.~"

  "Sir! I couldn't understand any of that! Please repeat what you said!" Vasco had a serious face as he was nervously sweating while seeming to be so totally and utterly lost.

  "Cadet, you can just go home. Now....Let's do this!"

  "C'mon, Vasco, I'll show you what he wants us to do." We were all sitting at our own computers, working for what felt like hours, but at the end of it all....nothing came up.

  "Z-Zack...."

  "Nothing's....coming up."

  "Th-That's strange....it should work...."

  "If they made it to scam people....there's no way they'd leave a trace."

  "Th-That's okay, we're only just getting started! What's the next plan, Zack?"

  "....There is none" Zack groaned miserably.

  "Hey, he's last in school. Don't expect too much."

  "Wh-What do I do then?! Is there any other way?!" Jiho raised his voice.

  "It's impossible for us....we're not the police. We have no choice but to....run to the bank as soon as it opens."

  "Yo....you dumbasses. I couldn't bear listening to you guys anymore." I glanced up to see who was talking shit, and it looked like a kid with purple hair was standing up on the computer table, looking over the divider. "Did you mess up again? I saved your ass last time too... Huh?!" He shot his attention to Jiho. "When are you going to learn? Grow up. Be a man. Why do you live like this? And that chick is playing Double Panda." He pointed at me with his popsicle.

  "Mia!"

  "Whaaat? I waited until I finished my list!" I paused the game and leaned back from the keyboard. "Look, I'll even pay attention to the pipsqueak now."

  "Says the pipsqueak." The kid popped off.

  "You wanna go, short stack?!" I shot him a glare.

  "I don't know how I feel about fighting gnomes."

  "I'm taller than you, so shut up kid!"

  "And yet I still manage to have a higher intelligence." He bit his popsicle. "What, are you mixed? From the accent, I'd say Australian. Oh, lemme guess, brain fried from all the venomous animals?"
