The Call Pt.2

With such an intense failure, he didn't really think there would be major consequences. By the tone of the messaging from the hacker he was given a warning, so he did not expect any 'punishment' if he listened to their words. Just the way they kept riling him up and edging him with the code, it seemed like that was their punishment if there was one. 

There were people with sadistic personalities that naturally spoke in that way but for some reason he felt that this wasn't the case right now. In the moment, he had a lot of speculations and assumptions about what was going on. However, for the few minutes of peace he had after everything ended he automatically started analyzing it all. It was like a game replay in his head where he went over each section play by play. His memory was biased and he had definitely missed things in the moment, so with what he did remember he tried to analyze it.
