| == Investigation: The Hidden Room (2025-02-01) ==
| |
|
| |
|
| === Discovery of the Hidden Laboratory ===
| |
| * Inside '''Magrete Steel’s abandoned home''', Mia, Siz, and Det continue their search for clues.
| |
| * Mia notices that the '''house’s layout''' doesn’t match, suggesting a hidden space near the fridge.
| |
| * Siz, inspecting the area, discovers a '''card slot mechanism''' built into the wall.
| |
| * After some discussion, Mia inserts the '''mysterious card''' she was given, triggering a mechanical '''click''' and revealing a concealed door.
| |
| * The discovery leads to questions: '''Who left the card for them? Was this all planned?'''
| |
|
| |
| === The Secret Workspace ===
| |
| * Behind the door is a '''hidden laboratory''', containing:
| |
| - Multiple '''workstations''' with scientific equipment.
| |
| - A '''computer''', still powered on, requiring a password.
| |
| - Minimal paper documentation, aside from a '''notebook with sketches and notes'''.
| |
| - A suspiciously loose '''floorboard''' in the corner.
| |
|
| |
| * While Mia works to pry open the floorboard, Siz and Det begin searching for clues in the notebook and computer.
| |
|
| |
| === Hidden Documents and System Access ===
| |
| * Mia uncovers '''three folders of documents''' beneath the loose floorboard, which appear to contain complex '''technical schematics''' and '''research notes'''.
| |
| * Det, noticing something in the papers, finds what seems to be the '''computer’s login credentials'''.
| |
| * Using the discovered login, Det gains access to the system and finds several oddly named folders:
| |
| - '''Do Not Touch'''
| |
| - '''Important Later'''
| |
| - '''Security System'''
| |
| - '''Make the Computer Chime at People Program'''
| |
| * The last folder is particularly odd, as the computer seems to '''chime differently''' based on their actions, as if responding to them.
| |
|
| |
| === The Security Footage ===
| |
| * A prompt appears notifying them of '''unreviewed recordings'''.
| |
| * Playing the footage, they see:
| |
| - A group of '''six masked intruders''' approaching the house.
| |
| - Lights turning on upstairs as '''Magrete Steel''' is identified by the system.
| |
| - The intruders '''capturing Magrete''' and carrying her out of the house.
| |
| - The footage ends with '''no further activity''', leaving her fate unknown.
| |
|
| |
| === A Foul Stench and a Hasty Exit ===
| |
| * Meanwhile, a '''terrible odor''' begins seeping into the hidden room, overwhelming Siz.
| |
| * Suspecting something rotting—possibly in the '''fridge'''—she urges the team to leave immediately.
| |
| * Mia agrees, stuffing the '''three document folders''' into her bag while Det removes the '''computer’s storage device'''.
| |
| * The computer chimes again—sounding almost '''displeased'''—as Det yanks out its power and rushes out of the house.
| |
|
| |
| === Escaping the House ===
| |
| * Mia retrieves the access card and secures the door, preventing anyone from easily following their tracks.
| |
| * As they leave, she calls an '''automated taxi''' to take them back to town.
| |
| * The team decides to '''send the footage to Charles''' as soon as possible, hoping he can identify the kidnappers.
| |
| * With Magrete’s disappearance now confirmed as an '''abduction''', their investigation takes a new turn—'''who took her, and why?'''
