章 11: The Echo Chamber
Chapter 11: The Coffee Shop Meeting
Emma walked into the coffee shop, scanning the room for any sign of the mysterious person who had sent her the note. Dr. Lee was by her side, her eyes also scanning the room.
"I don't see anyone suspicious," Dr. Lee whispered.
Emma nodded, her eyes locked on the door. "Let's get a table and wait," she said.
They made their way to a quiet table in the back of the coffee shop, ordering two coffees as they sat down. Emma's eyes were fixed on the door, waiting for someone to arrive.
As the minutes ticked by, Emma started to feel a sense of unease. What if no one showed up? What if this was all just a prank?
Just as she was starting to lose hope, a figure appeared in the doorway. Emma's heart skipped a beat as she recognized the person.
It was Ryan, one of the lab technicians from the Echo Chamber project.
Ryan scanned the room, his eyes locking onto Emma and Dr. Lee. He made his way over to their table, looking nervous.
"Emma, I'm glad you came," he said, sitting down across from her.
"What's going on, Ryan?" Emma asked, her voice firm.
Ryan hesitated, looking around the coffee shop nervously. "I don't feel safe talking about this here," he said. "Can we go somewhere else?"
Dr. Lee nodded, standing up. "Let's go to my office," she said. "We can talk there."
As they left the coffee shop, Emma couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation. What was Ryan going to tell them? And why did he look so scared?
The walk to Dr. Lee's office was short, but Emma's mind was racing with possibilities. What could Ryan possibly have to say that was so important?
When they arrived at the office, Dr. Lee locked the door behind them. "Okay, Ryan," she said. "What's going on?"
Ryan took a deep breath before speaking. "I've been noticing some strange things happening around the lab," he said. "Equipment malfunctioning, strange noises at night... I think someone is sabotaging the project."
Emma's eyes widened in shock. Sabotaging the project? That was a serious accusation.
"Who do you think is behind it?" Dr. Lee asked, her voice firm.
Ryan hesitated, looking nervous. "I don't know," he said. "But I think it's someone on the inside."
Emma felt a chill run down her spine. Someone on the inside? That meant that the saboteur could be anyone... even someone they trusted.
As they continued to talk, Emma couldn't shake the feeling that they were in grave danger. Who was behind the sabotage? And what would they stop at to get what they wanted?
