...

The next day, Shin and Leonard did their morning training inside their respective rooms but did not practice their mentalism techniques and martial skills respectively. Executing such moves would require a special place or an open area or else they would destroy everything around them.

Shin did a quick meditation training instead while Leonard trained his energy and blood circulation method that he learned from his master.

After a quick shower, the two went back to the secret room once again, observing all of the screens, before Shin went to the main computer and turned on the microphone beside it. "Brother John, are you there?"

It did not take long for the person on the other side of the line to answer. "You're up? That is good! Do me a favor and opened these files on the main computer and install them."

Shin pursed his mouth a little before following John's instructions. And after installing the things that he needed to install, he quickly launched them and let them run on the main computer.

While waiting, Shin suddenly asked. "Is there anything notable that happened last night?"

"I slept last night after setting up the computers and connecting the ones over there to ours. I left the job with the rest of our time. Let me ask them for now – I just woke up too," said John in a nonchalant manner before shouting.

Shin could hear that the other person cursed John multiple times while giving their 'report'. He could not help but chuckle as he continued to listen.

After a few moments, John and the other person finished cursing each other. He then summarized everything to Shin. "We can't clearly see everything through low-end products installed there. The cameras that the city has are also very outdated, so we have to fix a few more things and install some special applications before we can have a normal operation."

"We also can't recognize if there were some sneaky energies being captured in the cameras, especially in the dark, so we have to polish our system first before operating properly."

Hearing that, Shin could not help but smirk. "That is a roundabout way of saying that you guys did not find anything-… or you have done nothing the entire night."

The corner of John's mouth suddenly twitched when he heard that before continuing. "Anyways, I have some tasks for you-…"

"Given me a second," he trailed his words for a couple of seconds as he sent a map to Shin's advanced watch through their secured line.

Shin opened it and saw that the map was the entirety of the Mountain Sea City. There were a bunch of blinking blue dots and a couple of red hollow circles on the map, making his brows rise a little.

It was at that moment when John continued. "The blue dots are the places where the cameras scattered in the city are installed. Their red circles are the blind spots of those cameras."

"Since you will surely make a round in the city during the day, make sure to put some cameras that will cover those blind spots. The spy cameras have already been delivered there. They are in the box placed in the living room."

"They are all portable and button-sized, so they are easy to carry and not complicated to install. Just put them in a nice spot where they can properly cover the blind spot. It will do its job on its own."Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Shin swept his gaze on the map in front of him before saying with a twitching mouth. "Do you know how many are these blind spots? Do you think we have that much time to install those cameras?"

"Well, that is not my problem. The military can't send people over there to install them since the whole place is being monitored. Even the two of you are most likely been marked after you entered the city," said John while reminding. "Be careful when you are out there and be mindful of your surroundings when you are installing the cameras. The other side may spot you if you are careless."

This time, it was Shin's turn to suppress the twitching of his mouth before replying. "I can't promise that we can finish the job. Our time is very limited. The more we delay, the more danger the students of our academy will face.

"Our main purpose is still to find the location of the other party, then we will trust that Uncle Nathan and the others will make their move," he added solemnly.

John laughed and replied nonchalantly. "Don't worry. I understand the situation more than you do. I have been briefed by our superiors about this."

"I know how you operate which is why Commander Nathan put me on this task. Just keep a couple of spy cameras in you all the time. They have a built-in tracking device in them, so we will be able to know your location if you ever got abducted or something."

Shin thought for a moment before commenting. "That is convenient. Then I can just put them on someone that I find suspicious, and we can track them instead."

John paused for a moment before laughing. "Yeah! You are right! It can also make our job much easier and less complicated."

Shin stared at the map for a few more moments and closed it after making sure that he memorized everything.

He then looked at the time before standing up. "Alright. We will go out now – look around and investigate. We will also have breakfast too while we are at it."

Before Shin could even turn off the microphone, John quickly added. "Oh! Before I forget. There are also special communication devices among the package in the living room. Use it instead of using your earbuds."

"Earphones and earbuds are too outdated. It can also make you look suspicious if you wear them for too long. The camp provides the special device, so make sure to try them out," he added before initiating to turn off the microphone of the main computer.

Shin shrugged his shoulders before turning to Leonard, who was busy looking at the screens attached to the walls.

….

When Shin went to the living room, he found what John was talking about. Two boxes to be precise; one was larger, which he suspected to contain the spy cameras, while the smaller boxes seemed to have the special communication device.

Shin just ignored the larger box and let Leonard take a look at its contents while he took the small box and opened it.

What he saw was a couple of devices. There were a pair of tiny, black molds that seemed to be a lump of clay or rubber or sort. He picked it up and pinched it a little. Then he heard a series of beeping sounds before subduing briefly after.

Nothing happened after that, which made Shin's brows form. He then slowly raised the tiny object and put it close to his place, closely observing it. And after failing to find anything, he shook it a little while putting it near his ears.

"Hello? Shin? Are you there? Do you hear me now?"

It was at that moment that he heard John's voice coming from the tiny object. He raised his brows and looked at it for another time, making his ear distanced from it a little. Then he found the sounds disappeared.

He then realized what it was. "Interesting! Even with my senses, I can't hear anything from it unless it is near my ears?"

He immediately figured out how to use the item. He put it on the lobule of his ear. And when he did, the tiny object quickly stuck on it, making it look like an earring or sort.

Then he heard John's voice once again. "Hey! If you can hear men, answer immediately. I look like an idiot right now, did you know?"

Shin chuckled a little and replied. "This thing is interesting."

After that, he took out the other one and pinched it before passing it to Leonard. He then made a series of hand gestures, telling the latter how to use them, while talking with John. "It is another convenient device that the military has."

"Hah! You bet!" said John before proudly saying. "Actually, it is one of the inventions of the students in the Top Military School. And after a series of testing and other annoying processes, we are able to produce this prototype."

"It is just a prototype?" asked Shin in surprise.

"Yeah! It is. The final product has other features such tracking device and such. It is very hard to install such things in a tiny object, after all," said John.

He then quickly went on the right track. "Alright, you should check the other special tools too. I will introduce them to you one by one and explain how to use them."

After that, Shin started talking out the spy-like gadgets from the box one after another while John explained their purposes. Each of them piqued Shin's interest, making him feel like he was in a famous spy or special agent movie from the previous eras.

He could even see Arthur looking at him in envy and resentment once he told the guy about these. One of that guy's dreams was to be able to use such gadgets during missions, yet Shin and Leonard were currently experiencing it right now.

After familiarizing themselves with everything, Shin and Leonard went back to the secret room to hide the excess spy cameras there.

Shin found it hard to believe that the military left such important things in the living unattended when they could just put them in the living room.

What if someone suddenly broke in inside the house and discovered them? Their cover would instantly blow when it happened.

Or maybe John had forgotten to remind him about them last night?

Shin shook his head and decided not to pick on John and just went on the mission. After making sure that everything was in order, he led Leonard to leave the house.

Aside from the task that John had given them, their goal for this day was to gather as much information as possible while going around the city. He just hoped that everything would go smoothly this time around.
