System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 28: Trick or Treat
Half an hour, I had passed. The area had been cordoned off by police and police cars, but there was still no clue as to Bruce's whereabouts.One of the officers began to report, "We have searched the area, but there is no sign of the missing police motorbike or the suspect. We also don't have a licence plate or photo of the van used to abduct Miss Jennings. Since the van entered our CCTV camera blind spot, we have been unable to locate it again."Sarah's facial expression was sullen. She gritted her teeth and banged her trembling hand against the police car beside her.BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!At that moment, Sarah's mobile phone rang. It turned out to be her mobile phone. Sarah doesn't usually pick up personal phone calls while at work, but when she saw the number calling her, she picked it up after a moment's hesitation."Hello, Mr Jennings. Don't worry; we'll find a way to save Claudia. You'd better be careful, too," she said.After ending the p

"A-are you okay? It wasn't me who hit you just now, I swear," Oliver said. He knelt and was about to help Bruce up but was kicked instead."You didn't bump into me? How can you say that? Look at my condition now. Then what about my motorbike? How will you be held accountable? Anyway, no one can leave until I get the compensation money.""Argh, my leg..." she moaned."George, what should we do?" Oliver asked while looking at George, who had a scar on his face.George furrowed his brows and then approached Bruce to check on him. "Hey, bastard. You're not good at picking people to cheat, huh? This is a warning from me. You've been playing around with the wrong people. You'd better leave quickly while we're in a good mood."Bruce glared at him and retorted, "Fraud? Are you accusing me of deception? Okay. Then I'll call the police. Let them decide how much you have to pay me in compensation."Bruce groped around his body as he spoke, pretending t
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 30: Intense Battle in the Car
Then, the two men drove off and left Bruce's motorbike on the side of the road.Claudia's eyes widened when she saw Bruce. She still remembered what Bruce had said to her earlier. Claudia wasn't sure how Bruce could know she would be in danger, but only he could save her now. After all, they were both trapped in the same situation.Bruce looked at Claudia, signalling her to remain silent as he tried to free her.At the same time, Bruce also noticed the movements of the four men before them. The driving man remained focused on looking at the road, probably because of Bruce's earlier action. The thin man sitting next to the driver was staring out the window. He occasionally turned his head to look at Claudia lying on the ground."This girl is lovely," the thin man commented."Of course. She's the daughter of the Jennings family."George, the man with the scarred face, also turned around and looked at Claudia with evil intent. As if unable to c
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 31: Wrong Capture
The black SUV rolled over. A few minutes later, a figure was seen trying to crawl out of the car. "You bastards. They have guns!" Bruce took a breath and sat down on the paddy field. He almost peed his pants. Fortunately, he had good reflexes and kicked the car's steering wheel so that it lost control and plunged into the rice field. Otherwise, his life would have been in danger if a shootout had been in such a narrow place. "Who... are you?" A weak voice came from the right side of the car. Bruce stood up, despite feeling like he had no energy, and vigilantly looked toward the sound. The man's upper body in sunglasses was outside the car, but his lower body was crushed under the car door. The man was lying on the ground in an unusual position, but he still had some breath left. He vomited blood from his mouth and looked at Bruce. "Damn, that looks painful." Even one Bruce could not bear to look at the man's state. However, for safety's sake, he still approached the car and looke
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 32: Interrogation
CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!Bruce smiled while clapping his hands. The man chuckled, "Wow! You have a very creative idea. Too bad you're not a fiction writer. That imagination of yours seems to be a talent!""Stop that nonsense. I suggest that you be honest from now on."Sarah jumped down from the table and walked over to Bruce. When she was close enough, she lifted her right leg and placed it on Bruce's chair. Her foot landed right between Bruce's legs."Damn! Are you crazy?" said Bruce as he eyed the woman's stocking-clad legs with black high heels.As tempting as the situation was, it was a matter of life and death. The woman's foot landed very close to his private area. Bruce would have to say goodbye to fatherhood if there was any miscalculation."If you don't tell me the truth, I'll show you what madness is." Sarah leaned over and looked into Bruce's eyes like a predator hunting its prey.Bruce knew something was wrong. He thought that ev
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 33: Self-Redemption
Sarah held back her anger before saying in a low voice, "Answer the phone. Remember, read my lips." "You just ate garlic, so your mouth smells. I don't want to look at your lips." Hearing that, Sarah wanted to punch him. Although Sarah had eaten garlic earlier, she had already brushed her teeth. Even so, when she saw Bruce pick up the phone, she held back her annoyance. "Hello." When Bruce answered the phone, his tone was much calmer. "Hi, I'm Sarah's mum. I hope she's not troubling you," an elderly woman's voice came from the other end of the line. "Troublesome? Of course, it is. Mrs Johnson, you have no idea how greedy she is. Stop! Sarah, why are you eating my food again?" Sarah's face paled, and she thought, "This lad did not act as promised. It's all over now. Mum and Dad will see me. My free life is coming to an end." Hesitantly, Sarah's mum replied, "Oh my God. I always remind her to behave herself, but she never listens
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 34: House of Jasmine
"Wayne Jennings, CEO of House of Jasmine!" Bruce repeated to himself.Then, he fixed his eyes on the man exuding an aura of superiority before him. On closer inspection, he saw a hint of fatigue on the man's face. However, that tiredness was well hidden."Looks like you're not too surprised to see me." Wayne was surprised at how calm Bruce was. There was only a slight change in Bruce's gaze when he revealed his identity.Most people would be happy to meet him, but the young man in front of him was not even 20 years old and reacted casually."If I'm being honest, I'm a bit surprised. I didn't expect the daughter of the famous House of Jasmine to be kidnapped as well," Bruce replied with a grin.Bruce was indeed surprised. Previously, he only knew that the woman's name was Claudia Jennings. Bruce discovered from the description that the kidnappers mentioned that the woman was from a prominent family. However, he never imagined that the woman was the daughter of the famous House of Jasmi
System Activated: Soldier's Returned Chapter 35: The Fortune Teller
The next day, a sumptuous breakfast was served on the table at the Jennings mansion. However, it failed to whet Wayne's appetite. His face was pale, and his eye bags were visible."Tell me, Noah." He glanced at his bodyguard carefully.It was not that Wayne did not trust Noah, who had worked for him for over ten years. After all, Noah was the only person he trusted.However, Wayne recalled the events of last night, his tumbling down the stairs and knocking over the glass, and everything else that happened next felt so odd.As Wayne was sorting through the documents, his mind was so distracted that he almost deleted an important file, thankfully stopped by Noah.When Wayne couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and headed to the balcony to daydream, a wasp suddenly attacked him, and Noah arrived in time to kill the insect with a single swipe.Having not slept all night, Wayne tripped over the doorstep as he was about to go downstairs.

"You said your evidence was stored in a shopping mall in the centre of Carthage?" Bruce looked at the Masked Fox suspiciously.The woman nodded. "Yes. How can I take those things with me? Of course, I'll find a place to hide them."Bruce thought for a moment."Bruce, I think this woman might be lying to you," Derek said cautiously.Bruce looked at the Masked Fox again."Believe it or not, but I value my life very highly," the woman responded with a shrug."Sarah, wait here. You can call the police and have them come. I'll go with him to get the evidence." Bruce made a decision.The Masked Fox smiled and looked at Bruce. "Young man, aren't you afraid I will attack you if you go alone?""Before you attack, my sword will split your veins," Bruce replied coldly.Bruce pushed the Masked Fox out. There were several cars parked on the roadside by the men in black.Bruce casually found a car and threw the Masked Fox in th
Chapter 495: Interrogation
Roy continued to crawl on the ground. Roy did not have the courage of Dextor, who could kill everyone, including himself, and all he wanted to do right now was live.SLASH!Roy screamed in pain. There were four Soul Swords embedded in his thigh."Release me. Please let me go. Bruce, we are still family, after all." Roy prayed while crawling.Bruce moved his finger slightly, and four more Soul Swords pierced Roy's back."Family? Now you know that we're family? I haven't forgotten how you, the family, treated us, mother and daughter."A murderous aura and a cold feeling, at this moment, everything appeared in Bruce's mind. Four more Soul Swords were stuck on Roy's back."Ah, Bruce. I am guilty. I know I'm guilty; I'm just a dog from the Waylen family. That, those things are not what I want to do." Roy cried and shouted; he was scared.SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!Roy's arm was in pain as four Soul Swords were stabbed into h
Chapter 494: Counterattack
"At that time, you already knew that person was a fraud. Why didn't you expose that woman at that time?" Sarah asked in confusion.Bruce shrugged his shoulders. "Of course, I'm not sure if that woman is an imposter, and if she really is an imposter, and I expose her directly, won't you be in danger?"Bruce walked towards Roy."And I really couldn't find any clues at the time. I'm not sure who was trying to hurt Mr Maverick.""So, instead of looking around like a blind cat, I co-operated. After saving Sarah, I created a fake death scene."Bruce took out the Supreme Gold Card from Roy's pocket."Some things that are not yours will never be yours!" Bruce said indifferently."Son of a bitch!" Roy gritted his teeth, and his hand pulled a gun from his waist.Bruce's fingers moved slightly, and a cold light flashed.A hand holding a gun landed on the ground, and blood splattered all over the floor."Ah... my hand." Roy h
Chapter 493: Delayed Death
In a villa on the city's outskirts, the morning light shines on the villa's roof."This is the first time I've felt so happy waking up in the morning, and with a glass of wine too. What a nice life." A young man in a nightgown holds a glass of red wine in his hand."Don't get too cocky, Lad. Everything is set. From now on, there is no more Mr. Maverick or Bruce in Carthage.""Everything in the underground world of Carthage is yours."Several figures walked out from behind. "But don't forget who gave you all this. Dextor, Mr Shelton."Roy narrowed his eyes and looked at Dextor in front of him. A smile appeared at the corner of Dextor's mouth as he raised the glass before Roy."Of course I understand. Without the Waylen family, I wouldn't have been able to take down my godfather.""It's all thanks to the Waylen family and Mr. Waylen," Dextor said in a flattering tone,"Feel free to let me know if you need anything! I will do anyt
Chapter 492: Betrayal
Bruce was surprised to see Sarah with a wicked smile on her face."Cough! Why? You..." Bruce vomited another mouthful of blood and instantly fell to the ground.In disgust, Sarah threw away the bloody dagger in her hand and walked to Roy's side while swaying her hips."Mission accomplished. That dagger I used was poisoned, so she can't show her skills now, no matter how strong they are.""You'll be poisoned to death in half an hour." Sarah smiled wickedly.Bruce looked at Sarah and said angrily, "You're not Sarah! Who the hell are you?""Ranked third in the Apol Slayer Ranking, Masked Fox.""Sarah" licked her lips and grabbed the back of her neck.A crack appeared in Sarah's skin. Then, Sarah's scalp and hair were removed. The real face under the mask was revealed. The person had short hair, a sharp nose, fair skin, and sly eyes."How, how did this happen? Where is Sarah?" Bruce gritted his teeth and roared."You
Chapter 491: The Perfect Trap
"This is indeed too coincidental; could it be that someone..." Sarah muttered. Bruce raised his head and looked at the rehabilitation centre behind him."This is not possible. It must have been planned.""Someone got rid of all these people before we could get any information and left us with no leads!" Bruce clenched his fist.Now, all the clues that might have existed were gone. Even if Bruce believed in Mr Maverick, it was useless that he had no evidence to prove that Mr Maverick was not a drug dealer. The court needed evidence!"Then what should we do now?" asked Sarah. Bruce said nothing."Well... we haven't eaten since this morning. How about... let's eat something?" Sarah whispered.Bruce raised his head and walked while pushing his motorbike."Hey, where are you going?""Eat.""Who do you think is behind this? Everything is well planned; the person behind all this is not someone to be underestimated.""And I know Mr Maverick's influence very well. " While eating, Bruce frowned
Chapter 490: False Accusations
[Location: at the police station.]"Come on, let's go see Mr Maverick now." Bruce looked at the door of the police station."Come with me."Sarah led Bruce to the police station."Captain Johnson, why are you back?""Sarah, you're home! I heard that something happened to the Sea Queen that you travelled on Yakut during a business trip!""Captain Johnson!" Everyone in the police station was surprised by Sarah's arrival.The two went to the innermost room of the police station where the prisoner was."Why is Mr Maverick still locked up at the police station?" asked Bruce.Bruce says the inmate must be transferred to prison after the first hearing."I heard that because Mr Maverick hasn't explained much, and the police still want to know how many drug dealers there are in Carthage, so he's locked up here for now."As Sarah explained, a gate blocked her way."Captain Johnson." A police officer stood up.<
Chapter 489: The Mystery of Intelligence
Bruce couldn't believe the boy had undergone so much change in less than half a month. But Bruce could still recognise Leviathan's voice."Bruce, did you return because of Mr Maverick and the others?" Leviathan walked up to Bruce.Bruce looked around. "Why did you wake up so early? Did you not sleep well?""I woke up when you opened the door, Bruce. I have installed infrared alarm devices on the walls and all the gates of the welfare house. Once someone enters the welfare house, I will be alerted by the tablet."Leviathan took out a small tablet, which showed the display of some software. "Infrared alarm device?""Did Mrs Sanders buy this tablet for you? How did you get an infrared alarm device?" Bruce asked in surprise."I bought the tablet while I installed the infrared alarm device and others in the welfare house. I did it when everyone was asleep at night.""Miley and Mrs Sanders don't know about it.""The whole thing cost
Chapter 488: Following the Trail
"Look out!" Bruce suddenly pushed Sarah away.BANG!The bullet hit the ground and left a hole."Again?" Sarah fell to the ground. Fortunately, Sarah quickly held her hands to the ground to balance herself. Otherwise, Sarah would have been injured.Saran wondered why people in Carthage could get guns so easily. Sarah had already experienced several gunshots in a day.BANG! BANG!There were two more shots. Despite the silencer, Bruce could still hear the gunshots faintly.Two Soul Swords appeared in Bruce's hands; then he parried the two incoming bullets—the impact produced sparks."There is one right in front, 1 o'clock direction.""One more at seven o'clock."Bruce confirmed the shooter's location through the bullet trajectory. Bruce looked to the side and kicked the wooden door next to him."Go in and hide inside. I'll get rid of them!" Bruce pushed Sarah into the room.BANG! BANG!Ther
