Hanging up the phone, Shadow contacted Wei. It took only a second for the call to connect. "Mr. Wei," Shadow began, his tone betraying none of the frustration and urgency he felt, "I've just had a conversation with the Architect who provided information about our hack. He's admitted to selling us out to SolaraTech. It appears our situation is more complex than we initially thought."
Wei's response was immediate, his voice cold and steady. "Shadow? Explain."
"The Architect was approached by SolaraTech. They made him an offer, and he provided them with detailed evidence of our operations. After learning that the evidence was obtained through illegal means, we might have an advantage," Shadow continued. "This information cannot be legally used in court without exposing SolaraTech's own unlawful actions in acquiring it."
