Chapter 69
The information security officer immediately opened the monitoring dashboard and began tracing the latest login attempt. The system showed that someone had tried to access Callum Vale’s medical records using Mrs. Harper’s credentials, but the attempt had been blocked because the account had been temporarily restricted. Unlike the previous incidents, this time the security team had been waiting for precisely such an attempt.“Can you trace the location?” Adrian asked.The officer nodded, explaining that the login had originated from an external network. However, the connection had passed through a private routing service, making it difficult to identify the person behind it. He could establish the time, device information, and connection history, but locating the actual user would require additional investigation.Dr. Gideon Mercer instructed him to preserve every detail and immediately notify the hospital's information security department. Victor Hale, who had remained in the office,

Victor Hale was the first to break the silence after the security supervisor announced that his personal assistant had left the hospital.“When exactly did she leave?” he demanded.“Approximately twenty minutes ago,” the supervisor answered. “The receptionist said she mentioned having an urgent personal matter.”Victor frowned and immediately instructed the security team to contact her. He insisted that her departure had nothing to do with the investigation, but Dr. Gideon Mercer was no longer willing to overlook the timing. The assistant had entered the director's office shortly before the unauthorized login, and now she was unavailable for questioning.Adrian remained beside the desk, examining the security report.“Does the hospital have her emergency contact information?” he asked.The supervisor confirmed that it did, but attempts to reach her had gone unanswered. Her official residence was also listed in the employee records, and the security team was preparing to verify whether

For several seconds, nobody in the office spoke.Dr. Gideon Mercer stared at the security report while Adrian examined the login history. Mrs. Harper's credentials had been used from two different locations, with the second session originating from a terminal inside Victor Hale's administrative suite. The discovery did not prove that the hospital director had accessed the records himself, but it raised a question nobody could comfortably ignore.“Who else has permission to use the computers in that office?” Adrian asked.The information security officer explained that Victor, his personal assistant, and two senior administrative employees had authorized access. However, the system normally required individual credentials, meaning anyone using Mrs. Harper's account would have needed her password or another method of bypassing the login restrictions.Dr. Mercer immediately requested the access history for everyone who had entered the director's suite that evening. He also instructed the

Dr. Gideon Mercer stared at the report in his hands, struggling to understand how someone could have used a department manager’s credentials to authorize access to restricted hospital areas. The manager, Mrs. Harper, had already denied approving the temporary pass, and the information security team was now examining the account’s activity. What troubled him most was that the same credentials had been used to access Callum Vale’s medical records shortly before the boy’s condition deteriorated.Adrian remained beside the desk, studying the sequence of events. The missing access card had provided an entry point, but the temporary credential suggested a second method of bypassing the hospital’s security procedures. Whoever was responsible understood how the institution operated and knew which weaknesses could be exploited without immediately attracting attention.“Has Mrs. Harper been asked to come in?” Adrian questioned.“She is on her way,” Dr. Mercer replied. “The security team wants t

The pharmacy assistant shifted uneasily in her seat as Adrian waited for her to continue. Dr. Gideon Mercer had instructed the security supervisor to record her statement, while another hospital administrator remained nearby to ensure that the interview followed the proper procedure. She glanced at the medication transfer form again, apparently trying to remember the details of the incident.“He was tall,” she began. “I couldn't see his face clearly because he wore a surgical mask, but he looked like a doctor. He came into the collection area and said someone from the emergency department had sent him to pick up the medication.”“Did you ask for his identification?” Adrian questioned.The assistant shook her head, looking embarrassed. She explained that the hospital had been unusually busy that evening, and several employees had moved between departments to assist with emergencies. Since the man wore a hospital coat and spoke confidently, she had assumed he was authorized to collect t
Chapter 64
The security supervisor placed the latest access report on the table, drawing Adrian’s attention to the time recorded beside the restricted storage entrance. The missing access card had been used again shortly before Callum Vale’s condition deteriorated, yet the camera covering the entrance showed no one approaching the door. It was becoming increasingly clear that someone had found a way to exploit the hospital’s security weaknesses.Dr. Gideon Mercer studied the report with a troubled expression. He had worked at the hospital for years and understood that security systems were not perfect, but the repeated irregularities surrounding one patient were difficult to dismiss. The medication transfer, the unauthorized access to Callum’s records, and the missing footage now formed a troubling pattern.“Could the system have recorded an access attempt without anyone physically entering the room?” Adrian asked.The supervisor explained that the card reader could register an access attempt ev
