Remedy completed the sentence, as Adam turned his head toward her.

She didn't keep them waiting as she stepped forward slightly.
"I was looking into something before I came back," she said evenly.
From her white trousers, she produced a flash drive, the same one she had used on Lyon's phone earlier and tossed it to Ivy.
"Decrypt the information in there."
Ivy caught it midair without hesitation.
She immediately pulled a compact laptop from her storage ring, unfolded it on the center table, and inserted the drive.
Lines of encrypted data flooded the screen and her fingers moved rapidly.
Remedy turned back to the others.
