I'm REALLY glad the previous entry wasn't my last. I'm also glad because I found C2! I'd better tell it from the start I guess. I have some time to write anyway, this elevator is so slow.

My infiltration began well. My observation of patrol routes paid off, because the gap I'd noticed let me climb up to the roof completely unnoticed. There are cameras outside, but because of the trees there are heaps of blind spots. There are cameras inside too, but hopefully they won't be a problem because of my disguise. I got lucky with my entrance. As I'd hoped, the trees on the roof are actually growing in little internal gardens, which DO have windows. I found one that opened on to a kind of locker room, so I picked up some clothing that means I can move around basically unnoticed, a lab coat and a weird kind of safety helmet, it's bright green and has a kind of sticky mesh on the outside. Still, even a bright green helmet is inconspicuous when EVERYONE is wearing one, and this facility has a LOT of people working in it, all running around the place almost like they're panicking. I didn't have time to find out why it's so busy, though, and the activity helped make me even less noticeable. Another good thing is that a lot of the staff here are young, not much older than me, so I didn't stand out in that way either. Above ground there are only two levels to the facility, mostly big rooms with low ceilings filled with complicated-looking monitoring equipment being attended to by serious-looking people. The inside of the facility is very white, and very shiny.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

To cut things short (because I think this elevator is FINALLY going to arrive at the bottom), I made my way through the upper levels, searching for C2. I found the advanced self-improvement group in a room that was laid out like a science lab, they were sitting and listening to a woman in a lab coat give some kind of lecture. C2 wasn't with them, though. I'll go into more detail about what she did later, for now I'll just put that SHE found ME, and she's the one showing ME what to do now.

One more time: C2. Is. Amazing.

Elevator's reached the lowest level. Got to go. More later, hopefully.
