I put my mask on and changed the color and looking myself in the mirror. I took a deep breath and exhale slowly.
No turning back this time.

I cut the glass with glasscutter and opened the lock door get inside through the window. So, this is his working room.
I'm walking to his desk and start scanning. I opened his drawer and I found a notebook with a label on it.
"Lexa? Do you have appointment tonight? I want you..." now who's the distract one? "One of my associate hold a party, he told me to come with your partner, girlfriend, or boyfriend."
"I should check on my database, Lynx." I said as I turn on his computer. I sit on his chair and plug the USB.
"That means no? Please, Alexa! I need to..."
"Okay, fine! I will come with you, just... don't told anyone if I'm a law enforcement." I'm waiting for her to hack his computer.
"Alright! You already give me a some motivation to break that wall. Can you... searching for something useful so I can turn his junk into cash?" She's a bit bossy sometimes.
I'm searching for any junk or something inside his office. I pulled one of the book in the shelf and something is moving. "What sounds is that?"
I'm looking at the tunnel with a staircase that lead into the basement. "Lexa?!" I want to check, but something inside me said don't.
Police already raid this place, but missing this room. I shook my head put the book in place. It's a risk job to break in someone's house in the day light.
I took a deep breath and back again to his desk and checking on the progress. Still minutes left. I took a deep breath and sit. Relaxing while waiting for she's done with her job.
Now, I'm curious with that notebook. I open the drawer again and found something inside. It's seems like a code or a coordinate point?
I'm flipping through the next pages and everything the same. Full of numbers and initials.
I took a deep breath and put that notebook inside my pocket. I should keep it quiet for now. Now I can access his computer.
I'm clicking through his files and clicking one by one folders inside his computer. "Do you want me to clone his computer, hm? Seems like you more interested in his rather than mine right now."
I'm chuckling and sighed. "I will do it by myself." I put my external hard disk, then plug the cable and start to clone all his files.
Why police not looking through his computer and all inside this room. I should get out from the front door.
I took a deep breath and start scanning this room through my mask. "Can you search a blueprint for this building?" I'm looking at the window and observed the city.
I supposed this room was a back side. Now, we should searching for the front side.
I can feel my phone vibrating from inside my pocket and my mask show a holographic of Cecilia's number.
Why she's calling? "Don't answer her call, Alexa. She..." I know. Tracker. Argh... this is tight situation.
I'm continue searching for a clue and hearing a footstep from the other room. "Are you sure is this the hidden place is?" I think someone already know this place.
I put my sneakers into a stealth mode and walking slowly and looking at the progress. Shit. Why it takes too long to clone.
"I know it's suck, but... you need to go!" Lynx said.
Don't panic, Alexa. 10% to go. I pulled the book and maybe this stair lead me somewhere. "I will escape through the basement and see you there at the party!"
I disconnect the communication and packed all the clues I found. I shut down the computer and not rush for everything.
Check and re-check. I took a deep breath and accessing my what I've got through my mask while walking down to this basement.

A waltz music can be heard from the lobby here. "Here's my invitation." I'm wearing my black sunglasses.
"You..."
"She's my wife. I will not enter this venue without her." You heard the lady, right? The guard let us get inside and opened the door.
All the notification pops-up from my sunglasses and all of them were rich than me with higher prestige of course.
"Hey, we're meet again!" I furrowed my brow as the waitress offered me a drink. Excuse me?
"We-we've been met before?" I raised my eyebrow. I tried to scan a woman next to her, but I can't.
She catches my clue and nodding her head. "The one in the back alley. Do you recognize my voice, right?"
Oh... right. There she is. I cleared my throat and looking at my surrounding. "You... right, but right now I'm... in the middle of a mission." I said as I lowered my voice.
I don't know where's Linda at, but this makes me anxious. "So, how's your friend? She traumatized?"
I shook my head. She seems relief. "I've mentioning..."
"You don't have to, officer. I know you're a good cop. You already work hard and... all I need is your respect to us. Not more." I took a sip this champagne and nodding my head.
"Don't worry, you already earn my respect." I said as I put my left hand on my chest and bow for her.
She smiles and tapped my shoulder, then leave me to another guest. I put the glass and observing something from where I'm standing. This party is an exclusive, but I don't see any of them.
I keep accessing his PC through my glasses and sighed. Oh... what is it folder? Someone tapped my shoulder, and I'm looking at behind me.
"Hey, I'm sorry I have to leave you alone." Oh, there she is. "Enjoy yourself here, I guess?"
I scoffed as I shook my head. "I hate party, you know that, right?" She's nodding her head as she eat the abalone.
"There she is! The host." I'm looking at the woman, who was standing on the podium. "She's your next traget, Alexa. Her name is Yumeko Takeshi. She knows where your brother at."
Huh, a 43 years-old woman is my next target. Too much bloodshed. What method I should use to her? I took a deep breath and exhale.
It will be a long night.
