POV change to Aaron and Yingli
Scene change to the dorms
Aaron / Yingli (narration):
We escorted the tourists back to the dorms. We have to make sure the supervisors stay out of our way, too.
Aaron / Yingli:
There, you guys should be safe here. Stay put while we look for a way out
Scene change to storage rooms
Aaron / Yingli:
Okay, Mr. Tour guide, why don’t you take a nap? Hah!!
Aaron/Yingli (narration):
I knocked the supervisor out cold and moved him to the storage room, hoping they won’t wake up any time soon.

Scene change to the lab
Aaron:
You must be tired, making your way here.
Yingli:
Not at all. Let’s begin our search.
Aaron (narration):
We scoured the place for any clue where the recipe was kept. I found a chest with an Orbal lock, stowed away under some boxes.
Aaron:
Hoooh?
Yingli:
This is–
Aaron:
I think we found it. Let’s try that thing Risette installed on our Xiphas?
Yingli:
Hacking?
Aaron:
Yup, game on!
Aaron (narration):
Okay, this is my first time doing this shit. Risette made it sound easy. Oh cool! It’s FIO! Now I just have to bring him around the maze, scooting past firewalls, and hit the goal. Simple! It took me a couple tries to pop the lock.
Aaron:
Let’s see… Yowza! It’s a whole ass binder of recipes!
Yingli:
… Wait. I wonder if they kept any backups on the cloud. Let me try hacking into their systems.
Aaron (narration):
Yingli went to work on one of the terminals. It didn’t take long for her to find what she was looking for.
Yingli:
Just as expected, I found multiple copies, some as old as a year ago.
Aaron:
That’s when Almata was really causing shit around here.
Yingli:
Yes. I am taking a copy of the contents and wipe everything clean.
Aaron:
Did you learn all this from Risette? I figured you two were having girl talk!
Yingli:
A lot of her work experience is valuable to me as an assassin, needing to cover my tracks and make targets disappear.
Aaron:
Hot fucking damn!
Yingli:
Alright, let’s find the exit.
