Kelvin didn't stop running until he was far from the old library.
His chest burned, and his hands were shaking. He finally slowed down in a quiet street and looked at the small flash drive in his palm.
Everything is here… Adekunle had said.
Kelvin knew one thing—whatever was on this device had just changed his life.
Back in his room, Kelvin locked the door and plugged the flash drive into his laptop.
Several files appeared. Some were videos, others were documents, and one folder was labeled:
PROJECT DAWN
His heart pounded as he opened it.
The first document was a message written by his father.
"If you are reading this, then I am no longer alive. The truth I discovered is dangerous, but it must not be lost. Trust no one."
Kelvin's hands trembled.
"What did you get yourself into, Dad?" he whispered.
The files revealed that his father had uncovered a powerful organization that controlled information, money, and even people's lives. They had been using technology to manipulate events behind the scenes.
And when his father tried to expose them… he disappeared.
Suddenly, Kelvin heard a noise outside his window.
Footsteps.
His blood ran cold.
Someone was there.
He quickly pulled out the flash drive and hid it. Just as he did, his phone buzzed.
Unknown Number:
"You shouldn't have gone to the library."
Kelvin stared at the message in fear.
They knew.
The door handle slowly began to turn.
Kelvin held his breath.
Whoever was coming… was not a friend.
