His boss, Alex, was already there, fiddling with a computer. "John, we have a problem," Alex said, without looking up. "Our disk imaging software, Active Disk Image, has been acting up. It seems that the serial key has been updated, but we can't figure out who did it or how."

It was a typical Monday morning for John, a IT specialist at a large corporation. He was sipping his coffee and checking his emails when he received a message from his boss, requesting his presence in the server room. Upon arrival, John was greeted by a sea of blinking lights and humming machines.

John's mind was racing. He tried to keep the caller on the line, but they hung up. He quickly jotted down the phone number and started tracking it. To his surprise, the number led him to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.
