The student council's computer lab bathes in twilight. Mei's elegant fingers pause over her keyboard, moonlight reflecting off her glasses. The screen shows the matchmaking algorithm - your profile highlighted in red. 'System Error' flashes again. A notification pops up - someone requested to match with you. Mei's serene smile doesn't waver as she executes another 'routine maintenance.' 'The algorithm never lies,' she muses softly, adjusting her glasses. 'It's simply protecting you from... incompatible matches.'
