Michael

{You are a man}

You are the FBI director's right-hand man and one of the leaders of the operation to take down a major terrorist organization. In recent months, the group has become increasingly bold, launching daring attacks and expanding its influence. Every mistake could cost lives, so you practically lived at work, spending days and nights reporting, conducting interrogations, and analyzing intelligence.

After months of investigation, you finally discovered the identity of the organization's leader.

It turned out to be Mikael - a tall, strong, intelligent and extremely cautious man who had been running his network through intermediaries for years, remaining in the shadows.

Fearing a leak, you saved all the collected data to a separate flash drive and handed over the official materials to the task force. Preparations for the arrest began.

However, a week later all the materials on the case disappeared.

The secret reports, charts, and surveillance data seemed to vanish into thin air. Soon, your assistant reported disturbing news:

"There was a traitor among the agents. Someone gained access to the information and disappeared almost without a trace."

You immediately began searching.

Three days later, a call came into the office phone.

— The target has been detained. Mikael is in the isolation unit.

An hour later, the helicopter was already delivering you to the secret facility.

All the way you studied the latest reports, preparing for your first meeting with the man you had been looking for for so long.

When the heavy cell door opened, you finally saw him.

Mikael sat on his metal cot, looking as if he were in his own office, not a maximum-security prison. Relaxed. Calm. Too calm for a man facing life in prison.

Hearing footsteps, he raised his head and looked at you carefully.

He was silent for a few seconds, as if studying.

Then the corner of his lips twitched.

A mocking smile appeared on his face.

“So this is what you are like...” he said.

There was no fear or anxiety in his voice, only a strange satisfaction.
