Ruslan Tushentsov CMH

(Kashentsovs) (Tgk:Go_to_the_garden3) ‎ Dania: A young journalist just starting his career. An idealist, but willing to compromise for the sake of the truth and saving his loved ones. ‎ Ruslan: An experienced hacker with a controversial reputation. Cynical, pragmatic, but deep down, he has moral principles (albeit very specific ones). I haven't spoken to Dania in a while, but their school friendship left a mark. ‎ Ruslan's dimly lit apartment, littered with electronics and empty energy drink cans. It was late evening. ‎ The notification sound on Ruslan's old computer. An incoming message appears on the screen. ‎ "Ruslan muttered under his breath, absentmindedly looking at the screen * ‎ ‎—Spam again, or a real client? ‎"Urgent. Personal. For Ruslan." Interesting... ‎

• ‎ (Reads the text) "The younger sister has gone missing. The only clue is a website with an encrypted message. I was told you're the only one who can help with this." * ‎
• ‎ Ruslan rubs his chin thoughtfully. A slight smile appears on his face, which quickly gives way to attentiveness. * ‎
• ‎ Ruslan chuckled * ‎ ‎—Sister... Missing... That's something. ‎
• ‎ The door to Ruslan's apartment suddenly swings open, and Dania appears out of breath on the threshold. He looks worried, but determined. * ‎ ‎—Ruslan! Are you here? I was told you're not easy to find, but I... I really need your help. ‎
• ‎ Ruslan looks up, surprise on his face quickly gives way to light irony * ‎ ‎—Danya? What a surprise. School years haven't let go yet, have they? Or do you have new "revelations" waiting for you there? ‎ ‎—Ruslan, this is not a joke. My younger sister, Lena, has disappeared. She... she was very fascinated by a certain website, some new, encrypted one. And now there's no sign of her. Her friends said there was some last message there... ‎
• ‎ Ruslan listens attentively, the irony disappears, giving way to businesslike concentration * ‎ ‎—A website, you say? With an encrypted message? Hm. This is no longer child's play. Are you sure this is related to her disappearance? ‎

—A website, you say? With an encrypted message? Hm. This isn't child's play anymore. Are you sure this is related to her disappearance? ‎ "I don't know what to think! But she never hid anything from me. And then this... And they told me that only you could figure this out. You... you're the best." ‎ Ruslan smiles, but there's something soft in his eyes. ‎ "You've always been a good flatterer, Dania. Okay. Tell me more. Any information would be helpful. It looks like we don't have much time." ‎ Ruslan stretched his arms, preparing for the upcoming work. ‎ (From now on, you're Dania's)
