The instructor said, “There’s no way she could trick a top–tier security system!”

Skye covered her face and said to Narissa, “Narissa, your face–changing skills are just god–level. Seriously, this is unreal.”

Narissa just shrugged. “Honestly, with systems like this, you don’t even need disguise skills. All you need is this.”

She grinned, then pulled out a USB drive and plugged it straight into the scanner.

The system uploaded the data, and in no time, the gate swung open.

“What kind of cheat code is this? You actually tricked the security system and opened the gate? That’s seriously badass!” Cedric said.

He snatched up the USB drive, cradling it like it was a priceless treasure.

“So what if you can do disguises and mimic people? There’s no way you’re good at everything,” Alina huffed, still refusing to admit defeat.

She was convinced Narissa must’ve used some kind of crazy tech to get away with it.

So, even more annoyed, she said, “Do you know what the number one skill every agent needs?

“It’s being able to control your own body–everything from physical skills, to keeping your emotions in check, to mastering what you know.

“And the hardest part is keeping your emotions in check.

“If you can’t control your feelings, your heartbeat, or even your body’s reactions, you’ll spill secrets the moment you’re caught.

“You think you can pull that off?”

Narissa just chuckled, totally unfazed.

‘Please, I passed the toughest tests for this kind of thing when I was only ten, she thought.

Whether it was making herself blush, speeding up her heartbeat, crying, or getting angry, Narissa could control every emotion and physical reaction at will.

Nothing from the outside could shake her composure.

If not for that, with Bastien’s eagle–eyed observation skills, he would’ve seen right through her long ago.

Alina challenged, “Dare to take a lie detector test?”

“Sure, Narissa agreed, completely unfazed.

“Bring in the lie detector!” The instructor was clearly annoyed by Narissa’s performance in class.

He thought, ‘Seriously? A student outshining me and even teaching the class? What a joke.

“If word got out, what would people think of me?

‘I have to put Narissa in her place if I want to save face.

‘Otherwise, how am I supposed to keep these students under control in the future?‘

The military base’s lie detector was top–of–the–line, capable of picking up even the slightest emotional fluctuations in a person’s brain.

No one could hide their emotions from this thing. If they felt anything at all, the machine would catch it.

If people got nervous, scared, or angry, the sensors would instantly pick it up, and the readings would spike.

Narissa was hooked up to a bunch of electrodes, wires running from her head and body to the machine.

“Alright, let’s start the test,” the instructor said.

With that command, the test officially began.

Narissa sat down in the chair, about to get grilled by a pro psychologist.

The questions were all tricky ones, designed to mess with anyone’s emotions.

They ranged from personal digs to poking at her past and even straight–up insults.

This psychologist had already done his homework on Narissa. Every question was tailor–made to hit her where it hurt.

“I heard you were kidnapped when you were really young. Did people bully you?” he asked.

Narissa showed no reaction at all.

“Did they humiliate you?” the psychologist pressed.

She remained completely unmoved.

He asked, “Did they beat you?”

Narissa’s heart rate and brainwaves stayed perfectly steady, not a single fluctuation.

The psychologist asked, “Did anyone ever rip your clothes off and try to assault you? Who were those people? What did they look like? What methods did they use? What positions?”

“That’s way out of line!” Skye just couldn’t stand it anymore.

The other three guys looked super awkward too.

For a woman, words like that were nothing short of an insult and an outright attack.

If something like that had really happened, it would be like rubbing salt into a gaping wound–the pain would be unimaginable.

Even if nothing like that had ever happened, just being insulted like this would make anyone totally lose it.

If any of them were put on the spot with questions like that, there was no way they’d be able to keep their cool.

But Narissa showed zero emotional reaction.

Her heartbeat and brainwaves kept repeating at exactly the same frequency, steady as a metronome.

Staring at the totally flat, almost mass–produced–looking readout, the technician watching the machine nearly thought it was broken.

“What’s going on here? How can anyone’s ECG and brainwaves be this steady?” one of the technicians muttered in disbelief.

Another said, “Yeah, it’s not just a few seconds or a minute. It’s been over ten minutes and there hasn’t been a single fluctuation.

“If that line wasn’t still moving, I’d honestly think she was dead.”

A third person blurted out, “How can a person have zero emotional response?

“Sure, maybe you can control your heartbeat, but your brainwaves too? That’s just not even possible!”
