Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 into the corporate world

Natasha knew that the only way to find Alex was to delve deeper into the mystery of Jungle Quest. The following morning, she applied for a job at NeoGaming Corp, the company behind the game. Her qualifications were modest, but she emphasized her interest in gaming and her determination to contribute to the team.After a tense wait, Natasha received a call from NeoGaming Corp's HR department. She had landed an entry-level position. Her heart raced with a mix of excitement and anxiety. This was her chance to uncover the truth.On her first day, Natasha was introduced to her team and given a tour of the sprawling NeoGaming Corp headquarters. The building was impressive, filled with cutting-edge technology and bustling with employees working on various aspects of game development. Natasha's job was simple: data entry and administrative support. But she knew she had to look beyond her mundane tasks to find clues about Alex's disappearance.During her lunch break, Natasha struck up a conversation with a programmer named Ryan. He was friendly and seemed passionate about his work."So, what do you think of Jungle Quest?" Natasha asked, trying to sound casual.Ryan's eyes lit up. "It's an incredible game. The graphics, the AI, everything is top-notch. But, there have been some... unusual occurrences reported."Natasha's heart skipped a beat. "What kind of occurrences?"Ryan leaned in, lowering his voice. "Rumors, mostly. Some players have reported strange glitches, hidden areas that weren't programmed into the game. But officially, the company doesn't acknowledge any of it.""Do you think there's something more to it?" Natasha pressed.Ryan shrugged. "Who knows? There are always rumors in the gaming community. But if you're looking for answers, you might want to talk to Alison, the CEO. She's the one who oversees everything."Natasha made a mental note. She needed to find a way to meet Alison. For now, she returned to her desk and continued her work, but her mind was racing with possibilities. If there was any truth to the rumors, she had to uncover it.
