"Beep!"

"Click!"

After Lane placed his finger against the fingerprint reader, the red indicator light turned green and the door opened with a swift "click"...

With that, he quickly scuttled inside and closed the door behind him as soon as he entered.

Upon entering, he noted that the interior of Brooke's room was a mirror copy of his own as well. There were two rooms and the entrance led straight to the living room.

Since it was midnight, the room was pitch-black. The windows that were left open allowed faint traces of light from outside to slip inside, which offered just enough light for Lane to see the shape of the room.

There was a black leather couch in the living room with a glass coffee table set in front of it. On top of the coffee table was a large ashtray as well as two laptops.

The ashtray was nearly filled to the brim with cigarette butts.

Brooke had always liked smoking. This was intel that he had gathered for some time.
