# Wiretapping
- **Mana Cost:** `{4}{U}` (CMC: 5)
- **Type:** Enchantment
- **Keywords:** Hideaway

## Oracle Text
Hideaway 5 (When this enchantment enters, look at the top five cards of your library, exile one face down, then put the rest on the bottom in a random order.)
Whenever you draw your first card during each of your draw steps, draw a card. Then if you have nine or more cards in hand, you may play the exiled card without paying its mana cost.
