At Glory Trade Corporation in the tech department, workers from left and right worked diligently; figures walking across the room to print and copy files. The sound of the keyboard keys tapping echoed throughout the office, eyes focused keenly on their screens.

"Ah, can someone help me with this code for the project files?" A colleague raised their head to look around.

"I'll help you out," A male worker nearby nods while walking in their direction.

Looking down at the computer, the male worker's forehead wrinkled upon seeing the set of letters and numbers on the others screen.

Awkwardly scratching his head, he leans in for a better look.

"Maybe it's a mistake. It doesn't seem like a code, just looks like a bunch of random numbers and letters."

"That's what I thought but...for it to be a mistake also seems unlikely."

Nodding his head in agreement, the two continue to analyze the code seriously with furrowed expressions.

While the two stared at the screen, they hadn't noticed the short figure walking past them, their dark clothes standing out immensely compared to the background surrounding them.

As she passed by the two male workers, she halted in her steps to glance in the screen's direction. Upon seeing the jumbled up letters and numbers, the girl's violet eyes flickered brightly.

Sweeping her eyes away from the screen, the girl continues to make her way across the room, however, not forgetting to say: "It's a backward sentence. For each letter that's in the sentence, there's a number in front of it."

After her words sounded in the male worker's ears, her figure stepped out of their sight and toward the copier.

Both men catching her words looked up from the screen to look at the back of the young girl dressed in black clothing.

Widening their eyes, both glanced at one another, a complex glint reflecting in their eyes.

"Was that..."

"Yeah, I think it was."

"Should we try what she said?"

Just as the other man was about to laugh at the others question, he choked on his words after recalling the incident that took place a few nights ago. Based on Andras and Eli's words, the girl was quite a genius.

Without responding, the man turns his chair around to look at his computer screen, gradually taking Mimi's words into consideration and formatting the letters and numbers out.

After a few minutes, he quickly completed and found the recent jumbled letters, and numbers were now set out into a readable and clear sentence.

"So...she was right." The man muttered.

Looking at the others progress, the man standing behind him widens his eyes.

A faint laugh escapes his mouth. "Indeed, she was. Looks like the words about her were true. Even we were able to find that out."

Nodding his head in agreement, both men turn in the direction of where the Gothic girl's figure disappeared.

For the next few days, many of the tech department's employees experienced the genius power of Mimi.

From fixing a malfunctioned computer to helping program a new system, the young girl had astonished many of the workers in less than two days.

Before long, their former negative image of her changed.
