Outside the classroom door, Miley timidly stood outside the door. She looked carefully into the classroom, and her eyes finally fell on Bruce. Miley wanted to open her mouth and scream, but she didn't do it.Bruce was a smart guy, and he suddenly remembered that Miley's textbooks were in his drawer. Miley must have come here to ask him to return her textbooks."Look, he's here." Claudia looked at Bruce with disgust. Bruce had no intention of explaining.Bruce knew that to clear his name, and he had to let Miley prove her innocence. Bruce took the books out of his drawer and ran outside."Um... my book." Miley didn't dare to look at Bruce, so she just stared at the book in Bruce's hand. There was a faint blush on her face."I'll return your book. But about the stuff on the Internet, I hope you..." Bruce handed her the book in his hand, but Miley immediately took the book and was about to turn around, leaving without saying a word."Miley, don't go. I'm waiting for you to prove my innoc
"So you're saying that by me getting first place in this exam, Miley loses her scholarship for this semester?" Bruce said with a wry smile.Donna nodded and said, "If you really didn't do anything to hurt her, maybe this is the reason.""Are you sure?" Claudia was still a little hesitant.Bruce thought hard. For a college student with a family lacking economic means, $15,000 a year was a large sum. Miley lost this considerable income because she got first place in the exam once.Most importantly, Bruce knew that he did not get first place because of his good academic performance but because he was lucky enough to get a System.Bruce always believed that luck was part of his strength. But when he thinks of how Miley looked at him when they first met, he feels guilty."Look, there's your picture on the forum again." Donna took her mobile phone and handed it to Bruce.Bruce saw another post underneath the previous one about him being an
After lunch, Bruce ran out with Miley's book in his hand. "Donna, don't tell me you believe what she said this morning?" Claudia looked at Donna and asked. Donna looked at her notebook and whispered, "At least I believe he's not someone who would do that." "But the message was sent this morning!" Claudia frowned. Instead of answering her question, Donna asked, "Claudia, do you believe there are computer geeks who are higher than geniuses?" Claudia nodded. Donna responded, "Do you think all computer geeks will behave in ways other people find strange?" Claudia thought for a moment and nodded again. Donna smiled wordlessly and continued her practice. "You mean that guy is a computer geek?" Claudia looked at Donna in surprise. She didn't expect Donna to give Bruce such a high judgement. "Even if he gets first place in the monthly exams, he's only a top student at best. He's far from what can be called a computer enthusiast. " Donna pretended to be mysterious and said, "I won't sa
Upon returning home, Bruce stopped and stood at the door. He waited until he heard the sound of footsteps from inside Claudia's room before entering hers.After a simple dinner, Bruce decided to take a short break. He took out a piece of paper and started listing the things encountered in the past few days, the missions he hadn't started and the things he should do.First on Bruce's list was a long-term mission that involved Donna.Long-term mission, "Help Donna achieve her dreams. Make Donna happy and solve all her problems."Another mission, "Help Donna win another chance to stand in front of her family by signing up for the Jericho Art Competition next month and winning first place."Both tasks would take time, so Bruce could put them aside for now.However, speaking of long-term missions, there was an even longer one. That was to hide the news of Emma Agnesia's illness from Donna for three months. If Bruce succeeds, he will be rewarded w
In a quiet park, eight men looking like criminals appeared in the park. Each held an empty beer bottle, and all smelled of alcohol. They surrounded Zara. Incidentally, they didn't see Bruce because it was already dark; meanwhile, Bruce hid behind a big tree."What do you want?" Zara unconsciously moved closer to Arthur.Even though Zara had just fought with Arthur, she would still choose to be close to someone familiar in such a situation."I want you." A man said with a laugh. Fear crawled across Zara's face as she looked at Arthur."Guys, let's talk. Fate brought us to meet here, and I have money. I'll buy you a beer." Arthur had calmed down and was trying to reason with the men.Arthur took out his wallet and showed a wad of money. He handed it to the man. Arthur said, "Here, take the money and spend it on drinks.""Huh, you are a sycophant." One of the eight men grabbed Arthur's wallet and took out all the money. The man then threw the w
Bruce turned around and walked towards the eight men. The men drew their daggers and surrounded Bruce."Lad, you're done for today." The man held his arm. He could feel the bones breaking, making him stare angrily at Bruce.Bruce laughed and raised his fist. "Stop this nonsense, and let's move on."Bruce may look relaxed on the outside, but on the inside, he is alert. That is his character. No matter what kind of enemy he faced, he would strategically provoke the enemy's anger and think earnestly about how to defeat them tactically.Bruce didn't want to get into trouble. These guys had dagger weapons. What if they accidentally cut his clothes?Two young men attacked Bruce, not with daggers, but with their fists. Bruce thought these guys were underestimating him.While the two men attacked him, Bruce stood still. There was not even a hint of panic on his face.Bruce jumped up and kicked one of them in the stomach when they were a metre
"Little Knife." Bruce drew the dagger and flicked it with his finger. The dagger landed under Joshua's left armpit.Joshua's body trembled as he looked at the bright knife handle. He didn't dare say a word."Bruce, let's go quickly." Zara walked over and looked at him anxiously."There is no need. It's better to settle this matter now. Otherwise, it will be more troublesome if they look for me at school."Bruce looked at Zara and smiled, "Zara, if you want to go, you can go first. By the way, help me carry the bag. I'll get it later." Zara hesitated somewhat and did not move. It looked like she was going to wait for Bruce. But Bruce looked at Arthur, who was standing at the side. Bruce looked at Arthur with disgust. Bruce may have hated Arthur before, but seeing what he did earlier made Bruce hate him even more."Mr Elias, you should leave. It's too dangerous here, and I'm worried about hurting you later."When Arthur heard Bruce's tone, he clenched his fists. Arthur turned around an
"No, no. There's one more thing I want to tell you." Derek looked at Bruce eagerly."I have a boss. He is a well-known figure in Carthage, and he is eager to meet you, Jacob."Bruce frowned slightly. "Boss? Do you mean the real big boss?""He wants to see me? Does your boss want to avenge all of you on me?" Bruce continued.Derek shook his head quickly. "No, no. Our boss said we deserved to be beaten, but he's nice. He promoted me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have this many subordinates. That man just wanted to see you.""I don't have much free time. Tell your boss to visit me if he wants to see me," Bruce said casually, waving his hand. Now that he had a system, there was no need to have further contact with these people.Hearing what Bruce said, the thugs around were stunned, and they knew who the real boss was—the biggest enemy in Carthage."All right. I'll pass on your words to him." Derek did not move, and his face was still full
