I'm a spy in the film

Chapter 448 Accidental Rescue

"Mr. Bourne, my family has an engineering company."

The team member said excitedly: "For a municipal project like this, this is not the process at all."

He flipped through the construction drawings and said, "Look, this is a record of the renovation project from project approval to the start of construction."

"This project was proposed half a year ago. In less than two months, it has been approved by all departments including municipal administration, urban construction, health, fire protection, environment, education, women, and welfare—"

"Wait, what does building a subway roof have to do with education, women and welfare?"

"Well, for public welfare projects like this, there must be a certain proportion of disabled workers and female workers in the construction team, and then these workers must receive training before taking up their posts..." (True story in the United States, and there are a lot of unions that are not mentioned)

Bourne was speechless. He never thought capitalism could be so bureaucratic.

Seeing that Bourne didn't say anything, the team member continued, "Normally, a department would need at least a month to review a process like this, but..."

Bourne suddenly remembered something and quickly said in the group: "Who among you has time, go to the police station, or hack into the local police station's network to see where all the missing persons reports from Rio three months ago are concentrated."

Claire immediately responded, "Most of the people in my team are knights, so let Sharon handle these tasks."

Sharon didn't say anything, as if she agreed.

But Bourne said, "No, the police station is quite close to the Stoneheart Group's headquarters, only two streets away. If there is really something wrong with the Stoneheart Group, the vampires will never leave the police station, an arsenal, unattended. It's better for you to mix the two teams and send more people together. When the results come out later, you won't need too many people to investigate."

"Okay, I like to chop those vampires in half the most! After I chop them, they will turn into ash or pus. I don't have to worry about them at all. It's very convenient."

Bourne..(＿＿)ノ｜Wall

Well, this knight princess turned out to be a violent person, and her sister who was better at swordsmanship than her—

Uh, overthinking.

Sharon didn't say anything, and Claire wasn't talking either. They must be arranging the team.

At this time, two more team members hurried out with thick files.

The information was spread out on a large open space that Bourne had cleared.

The same is true for underground projects.

One is an orphanage. It is said that there was a ground collapse on the hillside in the backyard. Similarly, the application was submitted half a year ago, the approval took two months, and the construction unit was Shixin Group.

The other is an underground sewage pipe, from which it is said that foul-smelling sewage often emerges, and the construction unit is still Shixin Group.

"It seems that this Stone Heart Group is really problematic."

Sharon said quietly.

"I didn't expect that there really is something hidden beneath the surface. The mastermind we have been looking for is actually our sponsor."

"Wait a minute."

Bourne suddenly stood up, snatched the files from the hands of several team members who came later, and flipped through them quickly.

“This solid building is very problematic.”

Bourne pointed his index finger at a spot on the West District administrative map.

"You see, these construction sites are all around the solid building, and -"

Bourne opened a few newly-moved files, turned to the last few pages, pointed at the records and said:

"Here, here, and the construction workers and vehicles in these places have been transferred to this construction site north of Shixin Building in the past two months, but."

"But this construction site doesn't need so many people!"

One of the team members exclaimed.

"Why would an excavator be needed to build a few toilets in an underground parking lot? Are these toilets going to be turned into swimming pools?"

"I guess you're actually right, but that's not a swimming pool, it's a pool of blood."

"Blood pool?"

"right!

A necessary place for vampires to advance.

Like our swimming pool, but it's filled with blood instead of water.

The more blood contained in the blood pool, the higher the quality, and the greater the chance of the vampire being promoted.

It is said that the vampires in ancient times would often hold such ceremonies, killing hundreds of humans each time."

"Haha!" Someone sneered, "Five excavators, hundreds of workers, at this scale, it would take two months to dig a football field. This is not something that can be satisfied with the blood of hundreds or thousands of people."

Everyone was silent.

Thinking of the Rio residents who might have been thrown into the blood pool and turned into food for vampires, everyone present felt a sense of pain.

"These damn vampires, one day we will all be wiped out!" one team member said angrily.

"Okay, take photos of all these documents, take the two smaller copies with you, and put the rest in a safe."

Bourne glanced at the clock on the wall. It was 3:47 p.m.

Haha, now I can’t tell the difference between day and night at all. The watch is just a time-keeping tool.

"Sir Bourne, where are we going now?" someone asked.

Bourne hesitated for a moment, then asked in the link: "Where are your people?"

Sharon quickly replied: "We are in some trouble here. We were hung by a group of vampire servants."

"Where? Location. We'll set out immediately to meet you."

After receiving the specific location, Bourne closed his eyes, and a three-dimensional map of Rio's western district appeared in his mind.

The Stone Heart Building, the administrative hall, the police station, several construction sites with suspicious circumstances, and the location of Sharon's team were marked on the map.

A star-shaped pattern of debris with the Stone Heart Building at its center gradually took shape on the map.

"So that's how it is. It's actually a magic circle."

Bourne let out a breath.

It is good enough to know the other party's plan. The worst thing is to be in the dark and rashly rush into the enemy's ambush.

It now seems that either the magic circle has not been completely formed, or the blood collected is not enough. No matter which one it is, the Stone Heart Building is the key.

"Sir Holly, we are heading towards your location now. Please be prepared. We will arrive in about ten minutes."

"Okay, these vampires seem to be chasing someone and are running in your direction. If you encounter them, please save the innocent people."

In this city where demons and ghosts are rampant, is there anyone who dares to go out on the street and be chased by vampires?

A question mark appeared on Bourne's forehead.

But I didn’t take it to heart. Which vampire doesn’t catch a few humans to suck their blood?

The surviving citizens of Rio must have been discovered by vampires. Just save them as long as it doesn't interfere with your business.

But after Duran got out of the car, swung up a sledgehammer to knock down a dozen low-level blood servants, and used Heroic Bravery to burn the remaining low-level vampires to death, he discovered that among the people he rescued, there was one who looked 70% similar to himself.

"who are you?"

The burly man wearing a red fur collar vest, with a crew cut and carrying a fire axe, asked the same question as Duran.

After a pause, they both blurted out in unison: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Silence again.

"Vassily Fat, the rat catcher, they all call me Rat Brother."

The burly man with a crew cut who looked like Duran said in a gruff voice, "We are the Blood Ancestor's must-kill targets. You guys should leave quickly and don't get implicated by us."
