A new lifestyle-2

On her way to the dining room for dinner, Olivia felt a tap on her shoulder. Turning around curiously, she found Kalvin standing behind her. Kalvin could see the questioning look on Olivia's face.

"I've got something to show you," he said, his voice low and urgent.

Olivia nodded, her curiosity piqued. "Okay, what is it?"

Kalvin gestured for Olivia to follow him, and she quickly fell into step beside him. As they walked, Olivia looked around looking for any sign of Carl, but he was nowhere to be seen.

"What's this place?"Olivia asked curiously as she saw Kalvin walking toward a staircase at the other end, the room was white and quiet. There were luxury types of furniture and decorations which were possibly from stolen ships as they seemed to be from the early 2000s before the nuclear wars.

"They've named this the 'Visitors Room,' but it's actually famous as the 'Love Bird Room' among the prisoners," Kalvin said starting to climb up the stairs.

Olivia's gaze was drawn to the end of the room, where she spotted a couple locked in a passionate embrace on one of the sofas. She glanced curiously at Kalvin.

Kalvin gave her a teasing smile. "You should bring Carl here with you."

Olivia felt a blush rise to her cheeks, but she couldn't help the small smile that tugged at the corners of her mouth.

"It's up there," Kalvin added, gesturing towards the top of the stairs. Olivia followed Kalvin up the stairs, her eyes wide with curiosity. As they entered the small room, she was immediately captivated by the sight above.

"Wow!" she whispered, gazing up at the ceiling, which was covered by a massive glass panel. It offered a stunning view of the sea bed and the water above them, thousands of fishes and sea creatures wandering.

The room also had another small staircase that led to an even more intimate viewing area, a tiny enclosure made entirely of glass, just big enough for a few people to stand.

"Great view, isn't it?" Kalvin said, taking in the mesmerizing aquatic landscape.

Olivia couldn't help but smile brightly. "It's amazing!" she replied, her love for the sea was evident in her voice.

However, Kalvin's expression turned more serious as he interrupted her wonder. "But the view wasn't what I meant to show you."

Olivia's brow furrowed as she followed Kalvin's gaze. Olivia's gaze was drawn to a glass-like door in the corner of the room. "Is that... a door?" she asked curiously.

Kalvin nodded. "Not a normal door, though."

They approached the door, and Olivia hesitated for a moment as she noticed a guard standing on the other side of the glass.

Sensing her unease, Kalvin reassured her, "Don't worry, he doesn't care. As long as the door is locked, we can't harm him, and he can't harm us either."

Olivia nodded, her attention shifting to the space outside the door. "Is there another room? It looks like there's another room out there."

"Yes, there's another glass room outside," Kalvin explained. "That's how the outside door was opened, I think. The door to this room was locked, and then the door to the outside room was opened. The water fills the outside room, giving the guard enough time to go out and lock the door."

Olivia's brow furrowed as she considered the implications. "There has to be an automatic system to close the door and empty the room after the guard was out."

"Yes, and he had swum here from Ocean Diamond" Kalvin replied, pointing to a space-suit-looking diving suit on the floor of the other room. "Look, there's an advanced diving kit."

Olivia's eyes widened as she took in the details. "So they have a system in place to allow the guards to access this area safely, even if it's submerged in water. "

Kalvin then pointed to the lock on the door, which Olivia now noticed was digital rather than a traditional mechanism.

"The interesting part is here," Kalvin said, reaching towards the lock. "It works by a key card and a password of 10 digits."

Olivia's eyes widened as she took in this new information. "We can open it if we have a key card?"

Kalvin nodded, his expression thoughtful. "Yes, but how?"

Olivia's mind began to race. "Kara must have a key card," she said.

Kalvin's eyes widened in surprise. "If we can steal it..."

"Then we can get this door opened!" Olivia replied, her voice hushed but filled with excitement.

Kalvin's brow furrowed. "It won't be easy, though," he cautioned.

Olivia nodded, her expression turning serious. "I know, but if this is our best shot at potentially finding a way out of here, we have to try at least."

The two voyagers exchanged a determined look, both fully aware of the risks they would be taking.

Olivia suddenly remembered something.

Olivia glanced around the room cautiously. "Do you think there are cameras or recorders here?" she asked in a hushed tone.

Kalvin shook his head denying. "No, no, I checked before bringing you here," he said, dismissing the thought.

"Isn't it weird?"Olivia asked her expression growing suspicious.

"It's not so weird," Kalvin replied, still lost in thought. "People don't come here often; besides, there's a guard outside. No one can escape without the password, and even if they did, they wouldn't be able to get past the guard."

Olivia's expression darkened. "Well, not if they have guns," she said pointedly. Kalvin looked at her cautiously. He clearly knew what she meant.
