After thinking for another minute, she left a voicemail for Markus and also typed a message.

"Markus this is very urgent so please don't ignore. Your life is in danger. Don't head towards wherever you are going and return. Someone wants to kill you. Please reply as soon as you have seen the message or recieve my voicemail."

With this she contacted Joel who quickly came into the office.

"Joel what department is present on 31st floor?" Kizy asked.

"Young Miss, its the accounts departm-.... no wait, 31st floor has been sealed due to some construction issues last week." Joel replied.

"Are employees allowed to enter that floor?" Kizy asked again.

"No young miss, as I said, the floor is sealed and everyone is informed, so no one enters that floor." Joel replied.

He paused before asking.

"Is there a problem with it young miss?" he questioned.

"Is there any cctv present on 31st floor?" Kizy asked.

"Yeah we have two cctv placed in all corridors of each floor. So naturally there are two present on 31st floor as well." Joel replied.

"Take me to the monitoring room. I want the check out some footage." Kizy ordered.

Kizy directly wanted to search that person so that she could make him spill out all the information as whatever she heard wasn't enough to determine the entire plan.

Though Joel had many doubts regarding her sudden actions, he still guided her and both of them reached the monitoring room.

"Play the cctv footage from 31st floor." Joel ordered the employee over there.

"Yes sir, wait a minute." The employee replied and within 15 seconds the corridor which Kizy had accidently entered came in view.

"The corridor is empty Miss Kizy." Joel said, remembering to change the way he addressed her as there were other employees present.

"Play the footage from 10 minutes before this." Kizy said.

"Yes mam." The employee said before playing the footage.

But something shocking happened. And that was the footage was entirely normal, as if nobody had ever entered that floor. historical

"How is this possible?" Kizy said aloud.

"Play the footage from five minutes ago." She ordered and once again nothing different happened. The screen was same as before with no activity seen.

Kizy wasn't seen entering or leaving the floor, forget about the man she was suspecting.

"Miss Kizy, is there a problem with the footage." Joel asked.

"Joel can you ask someone to go on the 31st floor right now?" Kizy asked.

"Yes Miss Kizy, wait." He signalled one of the employees present in room and the employee immediately went out.

After a minute, screen showed the same employee entering on the 31st floor. The employee was a little awkward but he still walked through the entire corridor before returning back and entering the elevator.

"This footage is hacked. Someone erased the original clip and replaced it with other." Kizy said.

"Miss Kizy what are you saying. We saw the employee entering that floor. How is this hacked?" The man operating camera said.

"It has been restored to original now. The clip 10 minutes before this was replaced." Kizy said.

"What do you mean?" Joel asked in a serious voice.

"I want a laptop with high speed internet connection in my office right now." Kizy said.

"Ok Miss Kizy." Joel replied and both of them left the monitoring room.

Joel came back to the office with a laptop.

"This laptop has high speed internet." Joel said.

"If you don't mind, what actually happened young miss? Why are you doubting that camera was hacked?" Joel asked carefully.

"I am not doubting. The footage 'IS HACKED'. I mistakenly went to 31st floor 10 minutes ago. But you saw that there was no such thing shown on footage." Kizy said while hurriedly typing on laptop.

"Are you sure you went to 31st floor Young miss?" Joel asked.

"Is there any other floor which has been sealed and deserted like this one?" Kizy asked.

"No young miss, this is the only one." Joel answered.

"Then I definitely entered this. On top of it I wasn't aware about the construction part, so I went on this floor to seek someone from accounts department, but no one was there." Kizy said.

And Joel immediately understood that the footage was tampered, or else why would Kizy entering and leaving was not shown in it?

"But young miss this isn't the only thing right? Even if you went and came back, you won't be checking cctv for that." Joel said.

"Just give me a minute." Kizy said.

Joel immediately shut his mouth and stood there silently. But the more he was watching Kizy, the more shocked he became, and this was because Kizy was HACKING THERE SYSTEM!!

'Young Miss is definitely something, she knows how to hack our system! Others won't know but our security has been created by Boss himself.

He had invited other hackers to hack into his system but none of them were able to succeed. And now young miss has already hacked till 4th level.

She is the first person to reach until this level. Others were blocked at level 2 itself. Just three more levels and she would completely hack it.' Joel thought while watching Kizy with admiration.

Five minutes later.

"Aarrrgghhh!! who the fuck tampered those clips?" Kizy shouted in anger.

Joel was suddenly stunned at her sudden outburst. 'Young miss, thankfully I am the only one present in room. Please don't curse like this in public.' he thought to himself.

Joel placed a glass of water before her and Kizy immediately gulped it down.

She was always proud of her hacking skills which she had learnt secretly. There were only two people who were able to block her till now. But right now she wasn't able to hack into those erased clips, which meant someone highly skilled was present on other side.

She was happy a few moments ago, because the company system she had hacked into was a difficult one. She was sure that the person who created the defence was at least at her level of hacking.

Thus she thought she would easily restore the original clip. But once she was done with the defences of company system, she was blocked.

After pouring the entire glass of cold water down her throat, Kizy looked at Joel with serious expressions.

"Markus might be in some danger." Kizy finally said dejectedly. She had tried all means to search that person, but now she was at a dead end.
