Alexander stopped before the innermost door and carefully studied it. The door had high-tech security measures, requiring fingerprints or iris scans for access. He had to wait and consider his options since he knew his fingerprints would not grant him entry.
After a while, he removed something from his pouch and carefully wore it around his finger before tentatively reaching out toward the scanner. It was Lily’s artificial fingerprint. The couple had made one for each other in case of an emergency one day.
Alexander thought it might be helpful in this mission and brought it with him. He seemed to have guessed correctly.
In addition, Lily used to be an essential research personnel here for a long time. Alexander figured he should be able to gain access using her artificial fingerprint.
Suddenly, someone appeared behind him and shouted, “Who the hell are you?!”
Alexander was shocked since he did not expect anyone to be still conscious. He wondered if that person had already woken up.
He could see the person standing right behind him through the reflection on the door. The person was pointing a finger at Alexander.
After a pause, Alexander slowly turned around and chuckled. “Hey, I’m here to rescue you guys, okay?”
