Kevin sat in the dim light of his apartment, the hum of his computers filling the silence. The UN had stripped him of everything, but they hadn't accounted for his ingenuity. He needed their resources, and he shall have it. He wasn't about to let bureaucracy stand in the way of saving Vanessa.

His fingers moved swiftly over the keyboard, bypassing firewalls and encryption protocols with an ease that belied the complexity of the task. He had spent years building these systems, knew their weaknesses, their blind spots, and there was on ultimate way for him to get back access...

The automated backup services used credentials that rotated monthly—a failsafe he had designed himself. He could use those to open a communication channel to the UN's quantum farm and his dataset.

Sweat beaded on his forehead as he worked, knowing he had only five days before the current credentials would expire and be replaced by a new set, unknown to him, at the beginning of next month. This was his window, his chance to tap into the UN's quantum computers and secure database.

Lines of code scrolled across the screen as he navigated through layers of security. His mind was focused, every neuron firing with purpose. The data housed on those servers held the key to his simulations, to understanding every nuance of that fateful night.

Finally, he breached the outer defenses. A triumphant glint shone in his eyes as he accessed the remote database. He initiated a secure connection, encrypting his presence to avoid detection.

The clock was ticking—five days to gather everything he needed before the credentials became obsolete.

He started downloading terabytes of data—environmental variables, human behavior models, even classified reports on Blake's activities—all the final dataset necessary to feed his simulation framework.

But it wasn't just about gathering data; Kevin needed computational power far beyond what his makeshift lab could offer. Five days of remote access to the quantum computers... That's all he had. Five days to build an impossible neuronal interface, model a perfect virtual reality simulation of the night, and change Vanessa's fate.
