I'm a spy in the film

Seeing that the two Bourne brothers were already engaged in a heated discussion, Connie couldn't help but put her worries to rest.

Her eldest son had been very sensible and intelligent since he was young. His grades in school had always been far better than his peers. He also had a good personality and inherited the excellent genes of her and his father. There were countless girls pursuing him, and he also had several regular female friends. Connie had met all of them and none of them was unsatisfactory.

The only bad thing is that Bourne is too stubborn and loyal. Once he decides on something, he will stick to it to the end. Even if there is no supervision, records or rewards, he will persist and will never be lazy.

It's the same with people and things.

As for the reason, Connie herself and her two husbands believed that it was the divorce that caused psychological damage to the young Bourne.

Connie has always felt guilty about this, so every time she had a dispute with Bourne, although Bourne would be the first to make concessions on the surface, she would also silently step back afterwards and make compensation in other ways to express her apology.

"But this time, we can't let him do whatever he wants. After all, it's too dangerous!"

Connie thought silently in her heart that even if she needed to plead with that annoying woman, she couldn't let her son take such a risk!

Bourne was completely unaware of his mother's troubles. Although he responded to his brother Gray, most of his attention was still on the "Book of Whispers" and the "Soul Doll" in his backpack.

Because, when he got up and cleaned the house this morning, Bourne suddenly discovered that the millet-sized life gem that he had placed on the white porcelain plate was missing!

"What's going on? Is this stuff like dry ice that evaporates when exposed to air?"

Bourne quickly looked through yesterday's surveillance records. Yes, it was surveillance.

Influenced by Black Joe, Bourne installed high-definition cameras in several key and hidden places on the first day he rented the apartment, for no other reason than habit.

But no matter how he looked, he couldn't find any clues. After he fell asleep last night, everything in the room was normal. Only the evening breeze blew through the room, making the pages of "The Book of Ramblings" on the coffee table rustle.

Later, I checked the system points out of habit and found that I had lost another 100 points. I looked through the system records again and found this:

"(The Gate of Wonders) absorbs and extracts a small amount of fire elemental essence (a small amount) and a trace amount of water elemental essence (a small amount). The seal of the Book of Whispers deepens and is currently in the intermediate state."

What's going on? Is it possible to absorb essence in my dream? Bourne was a little puzzled, but what he was sure of was that something must have happened to the "Book of Whispers" last night, but fortunately it was restrained by his own skill (Gate of Wonders), causing it to change from a primary seal to an intermediate seal, which was safer now.

But when he continued to look down the records, he was shocked by the next message:

"Life energy has been detected and has been used to repair the Soul Doll. Current item status: Soul Doll (broken, spirituality is being lost, and the soul core is missing). If it needs to be completely repaired,... insufficient data is required and cannot be analyzed."

Damn! The thief was found, it turned out to be the system!

Bourne's original idea of ​​relying on eating and drinking to produce and sell a large number of life gems was completely shattered. This system actually destroyed the life energy he had accumulated with great difficulty without his consent, and consumed more than a hundred of his points. Now his points are even less.

When he got home yesterday, Bourne remembered that he had earned more than 30 points for fighting criminals that day, but he lost 70 points overnight. The most important thing is that he spent these points but didn't see any effect. What a big loss.

In case anything happens to these two magic items, which are his only two items, Bourne decided to carry them with him in the future. He hid the "Book of Whispers" close to his chest, which could block bullets at critical moments. The doll was just a decoration, and maybe it could attract the attention of some curious girls. Anyway, it couldn't be wasted.

After breakfast, mother Connie went to work at the law firm. She actually had a big case to follow up today. Bourne was delayed for some time in the morning because he was checking the surveillance footage, so Connie went out a little late.

So, Bourne took on the task of taking his sister Olive to school and taking Gray to purchase and return to the military academy.

"Hey, man, are you listening?"

In the car, Gray talked endlessly to Bourne about the trivial things that happened in the New York Military Academy, how the academy assistant Brett Shelton looked fierce but was actually very fragile inside, how the new recruit Andy Buckley was confused but had excellent physical fitness, how the youngest black man Taylor was always talking to himself recently, and so on. Of course, the most talked about thing was this military exercise!

Although Bourne was driving at the moment, he was still thinking about other things. After all, the adult world was too complicated and his younger brother was still a child and didn't understand it at all.

Kent Military Academy in New York, where Gray attends school, is a private boarding high school located in the Hudson Highlands, 55 kilometers north of New York City. It has a long history and has implemented military management since its establishment. It has a rigorous school spirit and many political and business leaders in New York and even Washington send their children here.

This school has a strong military background, and many of its graduates will eventually join the military, so every year military professionals personally design scenarios and comment on the school’s students’ military exercises. The highlight of this year’s military exercise is – a jungle night battle!

This type of military exercise is the same in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. There is a collective drill of the cadets, and the school leads the cadets' families to visit the school history museum, the command room and the logistics department. The actual combat exercise will be placed at the end, just like the easter eggs after the main feature of the movie. If it is exciting, the better, but if it fails, it is not a big deal.

Parents who can send their children here are either rich or noble. Although the school reception staff are not always respectful, they are very dedicated in introducing their own school.

Bourne was dressed in casual clothes and carrying a backpack. He looked like a big boy, following the crowd inconspicuously, observing this school he had never been to before.

Soon Bourne noticed a middle-aged man who was also at the end of the group of parents and didn't fit in with the people around him.

This middle-aged man had a rough appearance and a sturdy build. Although he was also wearing a suit, his well-developed biceps and pectoral muscles made the casual suit, which was obviously custom-made, look like a suit thug. In ancient times, he would have been a perfect general, but at this moment, there was a sense of depression between his brows.

Bourne clearly saw that several people walking in front of the group of parents took the opportunity to turn around and talk to the people behind them to steal a glance at the middle-aged man. There were also several young soldiers who wanted to go over and talk to him several times, but the thug in the suit either turned a blind eye or had a cold expression, as if nothing could impress him.

When passing by a barber shop with a "temporarily closed" sign on it during his visit to the logistics department, Bourne suddenly stopped in his tracks because a message suddenly popped up on the system:

"Evil spirit aura detected, do you want to absorb and mark it?"

"Evil spirit?" Bourne frowned and looked at the "Temporarily Closed" sign on the door, feeling puzzled.

"There are evil spirits in the military academy. This is not a good thing. I haven't heard Gray say that the school is haunted. Is it because of the military exercise? No, there are too few clues!"

Bourne put his hand on the door handle and twisted it twice. As expected, the door was locked. But Bourne's purpose was not to open the door, but to let the system absorb the breath in the room through contact and mark it.

A cool feeling passed through the door handle to Bourne's palm and quickly disappeared.

Bourne's eyes lit up, and a faint line of black smoke seemed to appear in the air, winding forward along the aisle in front of the door.

Just as Bourne was thinking of an excuse to leave the group of parents and follow the smoke to look for clues, he turned back suddenly and saw that the thug in suit had quietly come to his side at some point.

At this moment, he and Bourne stood side by side at the door of the barber shop, both looking at the closed door with frowns on their faces.
