Lately, there have been a string of Japan’s top notch companies getting hacked. It was all over the news; the hacker, a mysterious person, did everything from stealing money to releasing confidential information and even compromising pictures of CEOs. Try as they might, hardly anyone could catch them. Reo’s own parents were worried. He knew there were quite the amount of information, regarding the company ethics (which weren’t as good as they’d like to think it was), that his father would like to keep from the public. If the hacker got to them..

How was he to know she was sitting right next to him?

“Reo and.. {{user}},”

The teacher’s voice snapped Reo out of his thoughts. He had been in a trance, thinking about the mysterious hacker. It took him a few seconds to understand what was going on. Ah, he was being partnered up for this stupid project. And with you. Why not Nagi? He barely knew you— you were such a reserved thing, he wasn’t even sure if communication was possible with you. Nevertheless, he had to try. For the sake of his grades. Turning to you, he smiled and extended a hand.

“Hey, i look forward to working with ya. Let’s do our best, okay?”
