In the morning silence that still enveloped his room, Jack woke up with a feeling of tiredness that hit him like a wave after a sleep that was perhaps too short. The dim light of the moon illuminated every corner of the room, creating a contrast between the calm of the night and the chaos that crept into his life.However, the calm was suddenly shaken by the ringing of the telephone, which pierced the silence. With a quick movement, Jack grabbed the phone lying on his bedside table, not fully realizing that the calm he felt was so short.The voice of Brandon, his best friend and lawyer, came from across the telephone line in an unavoidably serious tone. "Jack, it's Brandon. I have bad news," he said, leaving bits of anxiety in every word."What's wrong, Brandon?" Jack asked in a still shaky voice, trying to understand the news that was being conveyed to him. "It's a little early for a phone call, isn't it?"Brandon revealed that an application to change Jack's name to Jack Harrison, c
Time passed quickly, and precious seconds seemed to grow shorter. Jack felt squeezed into despair as screams of evacuation filled the otherwise silent office. Without further delay, Jack rushed back into his office. His mind raced to find a solution that could end the threat of a bomb that was getting closer to a deadly explosion.Jack's gaze immediately fell on the bomb that continued to sound under his desk. Carefully, he touched the dangerous device, feeling his heartbeat speed up as tension filled the room. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead as he released the bomb quickly, realizing that one small mistake could lead to disaster.As soon as the bomb was in his hand, Jack ran towards the window of his room. With an almost lightning-like movement, he threw the bomb out, and the sound of shattering glass created a roar that outweighed the sound of the bomb's speeding seconds. As the device floated in the air, Jack could feel the pulse of the explosion continuously pulsing in his p
Jack stared at the system screen that appeared in front of him, displaying his poor health data. Jack knew that he had been hit by an explosion. There were several burns and other injuries. Jack also just realized that he had lost quite a lot of blood from the gaping wound in his leg. Jack was most seriously injured because he was the closest to the bomb when it exploded, even though he was not hit by anything.[User Jack Harrison, exchange 1 point for your health.]Jack averted his gaze from the system screen, which was still displaying a health warning that could not be ignored. The smell of antiseptic and the roar of medical machines enveloped the ambulance room in an atmosphere full of tension. The sound of ambulance sirens against the noise of busy streets added to the intensity of the situation. Every movement of his body was accompanied by deep pain and discomfort, as if every muscle fiber was inflamed in response to the powerful explosion just now. The burns that covered most
Jill held her penknife tightly, sparking fear in Jack's eyes. The dim light in the hospital room cast a strange shadow on Jill's angry face. "Don't pretend you don't know, Jack. I know you have something you shouldn't have."Jack, although distressed by this sudden threat, tries to maintain his ignorance. "What are you talking about, Jill? I don't have anything that I shouldn't have."Jill smiled sarcastically, as if reading every thought that was going through Jack's head. "Don't pretend, Jack. I know your secret. You have that system."Jack, who had kept his system a secret, tried to distance himself from Jill's accusations. "What? What system?"Jill laughed in a piercing tone, reflecting deep hatred. "Don't be stupid! You have a system that my father and mother created. It's not yours, Jack. You stole it, didn't you?"Jack continued to insist on ignorance, trying to frame the increasingly tense situation. "Jill, I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't steal anything. This
After the nurse left, quiet footsteps could be heard in the hospital corridor, creating a quiet atmosphere in Jack's room. The door opened again slowly, and in came a doctor in a sterile white uniform. Detailed medical equipment hung from his waist, reflecting his dedication as an experienced medic. He looked up from Jack's medical card with a serious expression before finally looking at his patient with a look of admiration."Mr. Harrison, you have serious injuries. Now I will check your condition," he said in a gentle voice, trying to provide comfort to a patient who had experienced a traumatic event.“Of course, doctor. Please," answered Jack.The doctor carefully examined the wounds that were once open and had now completely healed. The room's lights bounced off his sterile uniform, creating a calm, clinical atmosphere. When the doctor saw that even the stitch marks had completely closed, an amazed expression appeared on his face."Seeing your condition now, this is truly amazing,
After Detective Myra Jenkins took her steps from the treatment room, the atmosphere in Jack's hospital room became lighter. The nurses carefully removed the bandages around Jack's body, and Jack felt relieved when the fresh air touched his skin, which had been confined by the bandages. "Thank you, all of you," said Jack with a sincere smile, repaying the kindness of the nurses who had taken good care of him.After the physical recovery process was complete, Jack directed his staff to complete hospital administration. "Make sure everything is organized properly. And let me know if there are any documents or information I need to see," Jack instructed his staff firmly. They responded swiftly, leaving Jack to complete his administrative matters.Meanwhile, Jill waited impatiently in the corner of the room. She watched Jack's every move carefully, but in Jill's eyes, there was deep worry. When Jack finished and stepped out of his inpatient room, Jill immediately joined his side. They walk
Jack and Jill arrived at a location Jack had never visited before. The place was just like a small warehouse located on the outskirts of town, surrounded by a shabby feel. Jack looked around a little skeptically, "Is ten million dollars worth of me just to buy a place like this, Jill?"Jill just laughed cheerfully, touching Jack's arm, "Patience, Jack. You haven't seen everything." He then opened the barn door, inviting Jack to follow him.They went inside, and at first, the room seemed empty and neglected. Jack frowned, wondering what was going on. Jill just smiled mysteriously. “Watch this,” he said, snapping his fingers lightly.Suddenly, the lights hanging from the warehouse ceiling turned on, revealing a ladder rising from the floor. Jack stared at the stairs in awe and confusion. "What is this, Jill?"Jill just laughed again, "You'll see." He led Jack towards the stairs, and when they went down, the bottom layer of the warehouse turned out to be no ordinary empty space. A secret
Jack looked at the screen seriously, considering his decision. The room they were in was filled with an aura of tension as if the room itself knew that a big secret was being revealed."Jill, you know how valuable this system is to me. My parents entrusted it to me and asked me to keep this secret well," said Jack, trying to describe the burden of responsibility he carried.Jill nodded, indicating that she realized how important this legacy was to Jack. However, he gave assurances, "Jack, I have no intention of snatching this system from you. I want us to work together, combining your expertise with my technological knowledge. Together, we might be able to solve this mystery. After all, this is a system that was originally developed by my parents. Your parents just sorted it out."“You're right, Jill,” Jack finally answered. Realizing that this system is the legacy of their two families.Jill smiled, trying to ease the tension in the air. "Jack, I know this is complicated. But what if
