"Mr Gong have you still not found out what on earth is going on". Principal Park bombarded Gong the minute he stepped into the office.He had sent him an email that immediately after class he should head to his office.Though Gong didn't want to believe it ,he knew what Park wanted.

"Sir , the investigation team.." he tried to explain as he closed the door and walked near the front of Park s table.Park was seated on his table with fingers entwined.

He rolled his eyes slightly but not too condensendingly "Come on..We both know that that is only going to yield fruitless results.Besides how long do we have to wait until we have someone to take account for this"he said and looked at Jin who nodded in approval.Gong followed his gaze and nodded respectfully at Jin who nodded back.

"Isn't there anything we could do"he asked partly rhetorically.He stood up so he is standing behind his large back leather chair.

"We could ..uhm ... go green cobra." He said hesitantly after swallowing a lump between his words.He didn't think that he would be suggesting this but it looks like he doesn't he has a choice either.If he is saying that the should wait for the investigation,it's similar to him saying that he is helpless and that is nit the kind of people Principal Park needs on his team.

"What on earth is that",replied Jin who was sitting crossed legged on the sofa by the wall...

"It s like releasing a venom that will bite and poison anything and everything",he was getting uncomfortable at his suggestion but now his audience was interested because both men had fixed their eyes on him

"That will help because..",inquired Park

"Even the device connected to the system will get but..",he had gained confidence to speak

"But.."he could hear from the tone of Gong s voice that there was a condition

"We are not sure if indeed it's connected so we could end up destroying our servers for no reason"he responded partly embarrassed

"What ..How can you not know if it's connected?"Park barked because he thought that Gong was an enclyclopedia

"The device has hidden it's IP and Mac so it's invincible" he said halfheartedly.Didnt he say that the investigation team was handling it .Then how does he know this?

"Simpler", prompted Park which Jin must agree was feeling like Gong is spewing jargon

"If we backup our devices and release the cobra, the foreign device won't be spared. By forcing the cobra out, then all connected devices will have the cobra without notice.If the device gets corrupted ,we can hope that the user doesn't know how to fix it or that he doesn't have the immunity", he said so seriously that he felt like he just wrote a manifesto.

"I still don't understand you.",getting slightly annoyed with how Gong seems to be dancing with his head

"Releasing the cobra will make all devices corrupt including our culprit.This then disconnects them and hopefully they attempt reconnecting.By then our system will be strong once again.When they do that our system will recognize a vernom in his computer because the vernom is dominant and also makes his computer weak and thus hard to hide the Mac address..That is so long as he doesn't know the type of vernom he has.."explained Gong the most detail he could think of.Not even his students are this thick headed

"Is your cobra ...invisible",he asked after sighing

"Yes ..its like a silent tracker.You won't know that you have the vernom until you reconnect to the server and only then will the said server note down the IP.Otherwise you could go around with the vernom for a while until your system crashes.And recently Computer students are researching how to access a crashed system." he commented like a proud alpha lion.He saw that his words replaced hope in Park s eyes and he must admit that that made him feel triumphed.

That means by the end of this week, we would have answer?", asked Jin who was impressed by what Gong said.

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

"What have you been waiting for?",inquired Principal Park.His voice was much more softer like he had heard what he had been wishing for..He even turned towards a glass of water on his table to quench his thirst.He placed his hand on the head rest of his chair and reached for the glass after he asked Gong.

"That our server is connected to the whole web.If we try to block all web connected devices to the server and fail, we could face a horrible lawsuit",he talked fasted paced and clenched his teeth the minute he was done

"Whaaat!!", Park suspended the glass next to his mouth and looked at Gong like he was going to crush his teeth

"Yeah,that's why we delayed...", Gong felt like a small child explaining that they broke an antique.The way that principal Park was looking at him was like he would smash the glass across his face

Just then a knock can eon the door .It was head security guard Kim WooBin.

As he was allowed in Kim WooBin noticed that he had just walked into a heated conversation but nonetheless he has to relay his statement.He noticed that Gong was tensed up and Principal Park was vicious.This made him even more uneasy.

"Principal Park, we have reason to believe that the juvenile who made those computers fall out the window have advanced IT skills because the security cameras don't show anything.Infact it's like they have been off the whole time.", replied security guard Kim WooBin.

"What do you mean?" Principal Park half slammed the glass on the table

"At this moment, the security cameras are not recording anything", WooBin almost whispered but he was still audible.Jin let his mouth hang as he listened to these news.He even uncrossed his legs in disbelief.As for Gong, he slouched his shoulders in shock at WooBin.

'Whaaat!!"Principal Park couldn't believe the audacity of this man before him.He even placed his hands on his waist.That was sign that Principal Park was in awe, however this is just the tip of the ice-berg

"Our security guards have been watching live recordings from three semesters ago.And with every passing moment we are losing a portion of those recording..."as he spoke everyone arched their eyebrows and the eyeballs protruded from their sockets

"Also.." WooBin hesitated to continue but he knows he must

"There's more??.." interrupted Principal Park as he gawked at WooJin

"We can't aceess the recordings", this time he did whisper.As soon as his words left his mouth, the rage inside Principal boiled past thermodynamically possible

What!!" he punched his chair and turned to face the wall.He massaged the bridge of his nose.He couldn't understand who on earth is the mastermind of this facade.

WooBin looked to Gong,who still shocked but managed to nod him away.WooBin was scared to announce these surrealistic things to Principal Park because he thought Principal Park was going to slap him across the face.Seeing his reaction now shows that he is lucky to be alive.

He nodded back to Gong and bowed to Jin before he stepped out of the room.

Gong and Jin exchanged looks once more.They were still pretty shocked to hear what WooJin had to say.What tech genius has the ability to cook such a storm not mention what his intentions were..Jin exhaled and he placed his arm on the armrest of the chair and began drumming his fingers..He wasn't sure what was going to be done but something tells him it's going to be messy.As for Gong,he was stil staring at the place where WooJin previously stood

"Launch Cobra", Principal Park instructed without turning his body.His eyes were closed and he wasn't not in the mood for further instructions

Gong was not expecting that at all.There is so much skating on this and Principal Park just made an abrupt decision.But who could blame him.Gong was about to ask Principal Park if he is sure but then Jin shook his hand at him .He kept his mouth quiet.He has to make a plan first anyway before he executes cobra.He better go get started

Gong knodded at Jin and bowed to Principal Park before he left the room too.

Jin remained in the chair.He too was slightly skeptical about this but he wants to believe that Park knows what he is doing.

"How are you going to convince the board"

"Would you rather I wait until someody gets injured and they find that the cameras are not working"

Though it's not the answer he wants it's the best for now..He raised his arm so that it supports his head..Once again there is this heated tension in the room and both of them are practically speechless.. Honestly speaking,unless someone is going to name the culprit, what would be the point of talking..

***********

SaeOn s phone buzzed as he stood there.He quickly took it out and saw that BoGum was calling him.Saeon looked over the railings to the floor down.He surveyed the entire floor until he saw BoGum waving near a table...The two boys looking at him followed his gaze to stop what he was looking at and they saw BoGum waving.Bogum quickly stopped waving when he saw the school s beasts looking at him.His sweet smile was replaced by a chilling seriousness .

The call was cut and Saeon picked up his tray once more to head towards BoGum.Mingyu watched him leave but as soon as he descended, MingYu looked back to JunHui.. MingYu gave up looking as was suddenly bored and returned his eyes back to his plate of Ramyeon.. JunHui continued looking down and that when he clearly spotted the boy who had been waving to SaeOn.

He scoffed softly as he watched him but then BoGum moved from his spot towards the stairs... However JunHui s eyes didn't follow him instead they remained on the figure that was revealed from being obstructed by BoGum..

He stared at the boy who was placing his head on his fist while eating lazily .The student sitting across someone who appeared to be Wooyoung...

JunHui wrinkled his forehead but nonetheless kept his gaze fixed on the student.
