Weird noise coming from Macbook Air

Hi!


I recently spilled a bit of coffee on my computer. I did the necessary things to save it and it seems to be working perfectly except for a weird vibrating noise coming from the top left corner. Before i turned the computer upside down, i put some rice on it and some of the rice got inside. I am wondering if the noise is due to internal damage or just some grains of rice vibrating inside. I am really worried about the sound and i hope that it isn't some type of damage from the liquid. If anybody knows the reason for this could you please explain it? Thanks.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Liquid damage is pervasive and progressive. Even after the liquid evaporates, corrosion occurs and can result in problems days or weeks later. Your Mac needs service.
