"This group automatically appeared after we entered the dungeon, and the rules state: 'If library staff ask to join the group in any way, please refuse and deny the group's existence. The group owner is responsible for managing the group members and deciding whether each member stays or leaves.'"
"Ah?" Xia Wenxin also became nervous, her voice trembling. "Does this count as breaking the rules?"
Fang Zhao glanced at Gu Huaiwei uncertainly. He didn't know whether Gu Huaiwei had concealed her identity.
Maybe she is the manager of the Oasis Sanatorium and also has a part-time job in the library.
Gu Huaiwei said casually: "Don't worry, I'm not a library staff member. I don't have any identity in this copy."
"That's good." Fang Zhao got the answer he wanted and breathed a sigh of relief.
"However..." Gu Huaiwei recalled the information Han Zhusheng had given her earlier and quickly added, "It's your other partner, Bai Yuzhen, who has now become the library director's secretary. She is considered a library staff member, right?"
Fang Zhao took a deep breath, his heart instantly rising: "You're right!"
It was his inconsiderateness.
He had to remedy this immediately.
As the group leader, Fang Zhao reacted quickly after Gu Huaiwei reminded him and kicked Bai Yuzhen out of the group.
In the library director's office, Bai Yuzhen, who was boiling Chinese medicine, heard her cell phone ringing. She took it out and saw that she had been kicked out of the group chat. She breathed a sigh of relief.
The library director would push his wheelchair to her bedside while she was sleeping at night and secretly look through her cell phone.
This phone cannot be muted.
She was most afraid of new messages appearing in the group at night.
In the past two days, Bai Yuzhen has taken great pains to hide her mobile phone. She is not the group owner and has no way to quit the group on her own initiative. The chat box of the survey group cannot be deleted unless she quits the group.
She had always wanted to remind the monitor about this.
However, there are new rules in the library director's office. The network here is down, and messages can only be received but not sent.
Now that Fang Zhao realized this, Bai Yuzhen was much safer and no longer had to worry about the library director peeking at her phone and identifying her identity.
Inside the ventilation duct.
Gu Huaiwei looked down at the group and found that there were seven people in the group including herself.
In the group, the avatars of Wang Junru and another person have turned black and white.
"I only saw four people in the newspaper reading area of the library." Gu Huaiwei murmured softly, then raised her head and asked them, "You said a teammate died, and Wang Junru died in front of me. Excluding the two who died, there is still one... who is it?"
Fang Zhao looked at the new profile picture in the group, his fingers trembling slightly: "When did this person join the group?"
"Before ten o'clock this morning, this person was not in the group." Xia Wenxin was sure that as of this morning when she checked her phone, there were only five of them in the group.
Gu Huaiwei clicked on the person's profile picture. Although the picture was just a silhouette taken in the library's bookshelf area, Gu Huaiwei still recognized that this person was Han Zhusheng.
"If the avatar is a real person, then this person is the son of the library director." Gu Huaiwei remembered that Han Zhusheng and Fang Zhao had met them before.
Fang Zhao kept the rules in mind, his eyes dark: "The library director has no sons and no wife."
"If you say no, then no. I'll send you guys some information privately when I have it. If there are outsiders in the group, I won't post it in the group."
They are restricted by the rules and will say some weird things. There is no need for Gu Huaiwei to argue with them about this.
Soon, Gu Huaiwei received a friend request from Han Zhusheng. She clicked yes and turned off her phone.
Han Zhusheng sent a new text message: I'm going to deliver medicine to my dad tonight, do you want to come with me?
Gu Huaiwei immediately replied with an OK.
She climbed down the ventilation duct.
Bai Meemie's white socks got a hole from climbing in the ventilation duct.
"Sister Gu, when can we go back to the store?" Bai Meimei doesn't like staying outside for too long. Being away from the Oasis Sanatorium makes her feel like she doesn't belong.
It has been a while since Gu Huaiwei came out, and neither Lin She nor He Xueyi came to see her.
Judging by the time, they should have almost finished touring the town.
I just don't know if they brought back any new customers.
Gu Huaiwei comforted him, "Once we find Bai Yuzhen, we can almost go back."
At night, the soft moonlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the library like a thin layer of silver gauze.
The bookshelves were tall and filled with strange shadows. There were some untidy books piled on the table. The wind came in from some window, lifting the pages and making a rustling sound.
Han Zhusheng spends most of his time organizing these books.
There were clearly no guests in the library.
These books always inexplicably run away from the bookshelf to other places.
Gu Huaiwei stood a little further away from him: "Didn't you say your father doesn't easily see guests?"
"Bella complained about you to Dad, saying you bullied her. But don't worry, I've already explained it to you." Han Zhusheng's pale hands closed the book that had been blown open by the wind on the table. "I told Dad that you are my new best friend and that Dad wants to meet you."
Gu Huaiwei said a few polite words.
Han Zhusheng took the medicine in the thermos and took Gu Huaiwei to the library director's office.
It turned out that the library director's office was on the first floor. After walking through several winding corridors, they came to a huge wooden door.
Han Zhusheng pushed open the door, and a strong smell of Chinese medicine came into the air.
Bai Yuzhen was staring at the fire, concentrating on cooking the medicine.
Her eyes only quickly swept over Han Zhusheng, then shifted their gaze, as if she didn't see either of them.
Bai Yuzhen fanned the fire in the medicine furnace with a palm-leaf fan, muttering to herself, "What a strong wind! It blew the door open again."
Han Zhusheng also ignored Bai Yuzhen.
He went into the inner room.
Gu Huaiwei walked over to Bai Yuzhen, who was bending down to cook medicine and looked a little nervous. She typed a line of words on her cell phone and showed it to her secretly.
"Wang Junru is dead. Fang Zhao and Xia Wenxin are looking for you."
Bai Yuzhen glanced at the words on Gu Huaiwei's phone, then looked at Gu Huaiwei strangely.
She asked in a low voice: "Aren't you in the same group as Weird?"
Gu Huaiwei typed a few more words on her phone.
"I'm here to help you."
Han Zhusheng entered the room inside the library director's office first.
He called out Gu Huaiwei.
"Coming." Gu Huaiwei responded immediately.
When Bai Yuzhen heard her respond to Han Zhusheng, she grabbed her sleeve in fear and whispered, "The library director doesn't have a son. You shouldn't talk to him. It could kill someone!"
