Chapter 10: Eureka
Haruka sighed lying on the piece of foam they called a mattress in the jail. Ryu was across the corridor, looking just as fatigued and exhausted as she did. I don't get it. Why haven't they sent anyone to clear our names? Ryu whispered in a gloomy tone, making sure no one heard them. I told you that this whole mission was too weird from the start. Something's up, and their using us as their scapegoat. Haruka replied, staring blankly up at the roof, disappointed in herself that she hadn't caught on earlier.
As the world gets more wireless, the easier they make it for us to watch their lives. Ms. Tamachi stated, pausing briefly making sure that everyone was paying attention. Today's lesson. Phone bugging. By using a few simple wire hacks we can trace the person's ID, location, the person they're talking to, and their location as well. Michiru suddenly raised her head, a giant light bulb flashing on. She glanced at Makoto seated several rows to her left, who was obviously oblivious to the miracle that the teacher had given her.
Once the bell rang Michiru waited outside the class as students poured out for lunch. As Mako stepped out she grabbed her arm and pulled her aside. Hey! What's the deal girl?! That's it! This teacher is a genius! Come on!! She ran towards the tech center, dragging an even more confused brunette behind her. She's gonna have to make the drop sometime, right? Drop of what? Honestly, you're almost as blonde as the headmaster's assistant. Mako glared daggers at her as she continued, The headmaster is going to sometime make the drop for the plates right? Riight ... The brunette replied, not seeing where she was going with this. So, all we have to do is tap into her phone and wait till the person calls to see where they're gonna meet, trace the call and boom! Mako's eyes lit up with amazement, You are a bloody genius! We are so gonna be remembered for pulling this off!! But, if they don't say anything incriminating over the phone ... then we're screwed. Err ... what if we took surveillance photos of them making the exchange?
How can I help you two? A man spoke, causing the two to jump. The student tech specialist smiled at Mako, making her blush. Uhh, yeah ... we need some equipment ...
Ryu softly called out. Do you think we should break protocol and make a deal with the D.A.? I don't know ... we meet with the lawyer tomorrow, we'll see what he says. But, I wonder how they found out it was us. You cut all surveillance cameras, right? The blonde suddenly asked. Yeah, why would I want myself to get caught!? PIPE DOWN IN THERE! A guard shouted, rattling his billy club against the bars.
