"Why the sudden interest?"
Seeing Lara staring at the only screen she could understand, the live feed, the operator put his previous thoughts aside as he considered the reason for this unexpected visit.
After all, hardly anyone approached the room where only he could understand everything, no one liked to be completely out of the loop.
"Nothing much, I just thought that this month's applicants were pretty interesting."
At first thought, Lara's words seemed to make sense. However, the operator could easily tell that she wasn't being sincere.
"Right? I was thinking the same thing."
Still, the operator just played along Lara's guise. It might look like he had the right to question her further, but everything was held by a delicate line.
Just a minute ago, he himself was exhibiting suspicious behavior, but Lara simply disregarded it… Despite knowing that it wasn't that simple.
