MINUS EIGHT DAYS


The protagonist is a young man who is working in an insurance group called Arden Alliance. He is wearing his "oce" clothes, which are black trousers, a dark blue blouse, and a black blazer. He has a gray Fjällräven backpack and is wearing a wig. The protagonist's hair is dyed a uorescent scarlet, which doesn't fit with the company's slightly stucco atmosphere. He has a wig, but wigs are always a risk, and he is getting into character.


The protagonist walks down the corridor, wearing his "oce" clothes and a backpack filled with housebreaking tools and computer equipment loaded with shady software. He sees empty offices on either side, and a photocopier in an alcove blinks hypnotically. The lights in the corridor alert security, but the motion sensors don't detect his presence. The guards are unlikely to be coming from behind him, as that corridor is a dead end out to the car park. If they came from up ahead, the lights ickering on would give him enough warning to double back or duck into one of the offices.


Behind the copier are two LAN ports for hooking up devices to the main company network. The protagonist takes a Raspberry Pi computer out of his backpack and plugs it into a power socket. Gabe, the protagonist's husband, is listening to him, and he tells her that he is working on a project for the planning department. Gabe is not overly alarmed, but he is aware of the situation and is trying to help.


The protagonist is unsure of what to say if she stumbles into a guard, but Gabe is alert and not overly alarmed. The protagonist's roleplay is a mix of reality and fantasy, as they navigate the complex world of Arden Alliance and the challenges they face. In this text, the protagonist, Inspector Gadget, is trying to access the security system via their Pi. They are unsure if the security door is on the plans, but they are able to detect a PIR sensor and activate it. The door swings smoothly open, and Gabe warns them not to bring any Zanatech dogs. The protagonist is unsure if the sensor has set anything on, but Gabe insists that they wait while he tries to access the security system via the Pi.


The protagonist is unsure of the server room's location, but Gabe suggests that IT is on the fourth floor. The lift panel on the lift has a card reader, so the upper floors are pass-card protected. The protagonist can't override this until they have access to the server room.


The protagonist looks around for the re escape route, which involves dropping a bugged USB stick outside the lift doors. Gabe has handed them half a dozen USB sticks loaded with a Trojan horse program, which could be used to locate the owner of the computer. The protagonist then drops another USB stick and touches his headset.


The protagonist is in a small lobby with three corridors, and Gabe asks the protagonist to enter a code through the key panel. The protagonist is on the wrong side of the corridor and is unsure if they can override it yet. The protagonist nods and stands, arms crossed, listening to Gabe's frantic clicks across the keyboard and his voice as he mutters the occasional swear word under his breath. The protagonist, Medway, is a tech-savvy individual who is constantly competing with her husband, Gabe, to find the perfect solution to a problem. She is unable to access the admin side of the server room due to a lack of keypad access.


To solve this, she uses compressed air to force air through the crack in the door, which then opens. The protagonist is unsure of how to access the admin side of the server room, but she is determined to find a way to enter a code.


The protagonist is tasked with finding a way to enter a code, but the problem is that the door has a swipe card reader to the left of the handle, no panel to enter a code, and a small aperture. The protagonist is unsure of how to press the internal release button with the limited space and the small aperture.


Gathering up and down the corridor, the protagonist takes stock of the rooms to either side of the server room. They find a shared office with a glazed wall and two desks, a men's restroom, and a standard cubicle with a bowl resting against a cistern. They climb onto the toilet lid and climb onto the cistern, hoping the wall between the two rooms would be strong enough to hold their weight.


The protagonist's determination and determination are evident as they navigate the complex world of coding and encoding codes. They are determined to finish the task at hand, even if it means sacrificing their own safety and comfort. In the hot, dark room, the protagonist lies on her belly, facing the drop ceiling and the real one. She uses her torch to navigate the ceiling, aiming for a safe passage. She digs a hole in the ceiling and tries to reach a panel beside the door handle, but the panel snaps in half, leaving her frozen.


Gabe, the protagonist's friend, is worried about the situation and tries to calm her down. The protagonist decides to go down, despite Gabe's teasing. The drop is a bit more than she would have liked, and she tries to stay calm. Gabe offers to help her with the thumb drives and a second Pi, but she insists she doesn't need them. Gabe then instructs her to plug in the final drive, wipe down her sweating palms, and look for her torch.


She notices a glow coming from underneath the furthest bank of servers, which she believes was kicked there by accident when she dropped down. The protagonist's strength and grip are crucial in this difficult situation, as they must navigate the dark and dangerous environment without the help of others. The protagonist is a security guard in a building that is being searched by guards who are searching rooms. They have access to their cameras and have found two missing panels. The protagonist is unsure if they should stay put, but they decide to press the green button.

The protagonist is able to find the missing panel and the missing panel, but they are unsure if they should stay put. They decide to press the green button, but the guards seem to have disabled the override. They decide to head for the back stairs, hoping to get down before the guards finish.


As they approach the third floor, they hear the guards' footsteps and the sound of a door opening. They are unsure of what to do, and they decide to follow Gabe's instructions. They hear the guards discover the
