Chereads / Hackerman / Chapter 2 - Silence

Chapter 2 - Silence

How long had it been, 3? 4? Maybe 5 years, since our protagonist... Hackerman got on the moving stairs. He tried counting the seconds but slept after counting up to 30 seconds. When he woke up he was at the foot of the stairs. in front of him was a large set of doors. They opened for him as he walked through them and entered an enormous room. Almost 10 or 20 times the size of his prison cell. At the end of the room were a set of thin glass doors, with elegant gold door handles, shaped like dragons. Outside, he could make out the pavement, wide roads and large buildings. He couldn't wait to go outside, maybe the people outside could tell him something about where he was. Maybe he'd get clues to his background and even regain some memories from the exposure. But he could not let himself get distracted, his priorities were straight, he absolutely needed... a hot bowl of ramen. There were two other large doors, to his right and his left, although the left door seemed farther than the right door, not that this had any significance to the story. He decided to flip a coin to decide which door to go through, but he needed a coin, luckily there was one lying at his foot. He flipped the coin, and bingo, tails, but he forgot to assign a door to tails. After numerous long calculations such as the difference in distance between doors, and carefully considering what was inside each room, Hackerman decided to enter the left room, because that was where the cup ramen he got from a vending machine in the same room was. But what good was cup ramen, without hot water, so, our hero faces his next big task... finding, hot water.
