Rooftop.
I have no idea what is happening in the conference room downstairs right now.
Zhang Zhihao said, "Brother Lu, Su Mu will be coming over in two days to discuss the cooperation with you in person."
"About a collaboration?" I looked at Zhang Zhihao, puzzled.
“Hmm.” He explained, “I told Su Mu that you, Brother Lu, didn’t want to go to Jiangbei. He plans to come over in person to talk to you about cooperation. Cooperation doesn’t necessarily mean living in the same place, don’t you think?”
As I watched the black bird fly past behind Zhang Zhihao, I thought to myself that Su Mu's desired cooperation was nothing more than taking advantage of my identity as a doctor.
If this could bring me some benefits, then we could cooperate.
However, we still need to discuss this matter with Sister Jing and Fei Lichao.
"Okay, I understand."
...
The meeting room downstairs.
Jingjie clutched the diary in her hand, staring at this entry, her eyes filled with tears. She covered her mouth, unsure whether to be happy or cry.
The diary clearly states that only after Lu Yun dies will someone else find this diary!
What does this mean? Does it mean Lu Yun is dead? Sister Jing couldn't believe it. She had finally found her sister's trail, only to receive this result?
Jingjie didn't want to accept this reality.
Everyone in the conference room noticed Jing's unusual behavior.
Fei Lichao asked, puzzled, "Lu Jing, are you alright? Why are you crying?"
Tears welled up in Jingjie's eyes as she approached Xu Haishui and asked excitedly, "Tell me, where did you find this diary?"
Xu Haishui didn't understand what was wrong with Sister Jing. He glanced at the puzzled crowd and said, "I... I found it in a small warehouse in a supermarket! What's wrong?"
Sister Jing grabbed him, her expression excited, "Take me there! Take me there now!"
Jingjie was very strong. She grabbed Xu Haishui, who was caught off guard, and pulled him off the chair! Xu Haishui was startled and didn't know what was going on.
The people around them didn't understand either.
Fei Lichao sensed something was wrong and quickly ran over to grab Jingjie, asking, "Hey, Lu Jing! What the hell's going on? What happened?"
Jingjie's eyes were already wet, tears leaving traces on her face. She looked at Fei Lichao and said, "My sister...this is my sister's diary!"
Fei Lichao was stunned, and everyone was surprised.
What a coincidence!
Xu Haishui said in surprise, "That's right, I remember now, the person who wrote this diary seems to have mentioned your name, little sister. So, this diary really belongs to your sister?"
Sister Jing said, "Yes, it's my sister! Please take me to her! Please, take me to her!"
Fei Lichao said, "Lu Jing, can you calm down? Are you sure this diary is your sister's?"
Jingjie was very flustered at the moment, nodding while clutching her diary, her words were incoherent and unintelligible.
Fei Lichao couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he pressed hard on the back of her neck, and Jingjie fainted into his arms.
Everyone in the meeting room was conflicted.
...
Ten minutes later, Zhang Zhihao and I learned what had happened in the conference room.
There are only the four of us in the dorm now. Jing is still lying in bed and hasn't woken up yet, with tear stains on her face.
"...That's how it is, what the hell do you guys think?" Fei Lichao said.
Zhang Zhihao and I exchanged a glance, thinking how incredibly coincidental it was that we had found Sister Jing's sister under such circumstances!
"Could I see your diary?" I asked.
Fei Lichao tossed the diary to me, then left the dorm room with a sentence: "There's nothing interesting here. The important part is the fifth to last entry. I'm going to get ready."
What should we prepare?
I wanted to ask, but Fei Lichao had already left.
I flipped to the back of the diary and saw the fifth entry from the bottom. My brows furrowed. I figured this diary was definitely the real one, and given what Fei Lichao had said before, Jingjie's excitement must mean it was absolutely true.
However, it's quite troublesome.
I asked Zhang Zhihao, "What are your thoughts?"
Zhang Zhihao said, "Xu Haishui found this diary. It must have been something they found a few days ago when they were out wandering around. Why don't I go and ask him about it first, whether he found anything else besides this diary?"
"Okay, I'll wait for you here." I glanced at Jingjie on the opposite bed and noticed that her cheek twitched, as if she was about to wake up.
The moment Zhang Zhihao left the dormitory and closed the door, Jingjie woke up.
She sat up abruptly in bed, frantically searching around, muttering, "Where's my diary? Where's my diary?"
"Sister Jing," I called out to Sister Jing in her panic.
Jingjie looked up, saw the diary in my hand, hurriedly got off the bed, ran barefoot to me, and hurriedly opened her notebook.
"Sister Jing," I called out, pulling her along.
My shouts woke Jingjie from her daze. She stared at me blankly for a moment, then tears streamed down her face as she said, "Xiaonan, Xiaonan, I found my sister! But, but I don't know how she is now! Tell me, tell me, what should I do if she's dead?"
I hugged Jingjie and said, "Jingjie, can you calm down first? Things haven't been settled yet, but I believe your sister will be alright."
"But, but my sister wrote it on it..."
I said, "There are no 'buts'. What's written on it may not necessarily be what happened. Jing-jie, listen to me, calm down first, otherwise, how can we help you find your sister?"
Jingjie's tears wouldn't stop, so I wiped them away from her cheeks. She nodded slowly, her expression calming down slightly.
I glanced down and said with a smile, "Sister Jing, put your shoes on first. It's not good for you to be barefoot like this."
"Okay." Jingjie listened to me, sat on the bed and put on her shoes, then looked up at me. "Xiaonan, you have to help me!"
I looked into her eyes and said, "Sister Jing, if I don't help you, who will?"
"Thanks."
"Stop talking nonsense. Let's wait here for now. Zhang Zhihao has already gone down to ask his people. We'll find out where the other party found the notebook soon. Then we can go find your sister together, okay?"
"Mmm." Sister Jing wiped away her tears.
Not long after, Zhang Zhihao returned.
"How is it?" I asked.
Zhang Zhihao glanced at the hopeful Jingjie and said, "The diary was found in a small warehouse of a large supermarket. Xu Haishui said that when he found the warehouse, there was no one inside, no zombies or corpses, and most importantly, it was very clean."
That's it?
“Well, that’s all. Xu Haishui only took the diary; he didn’t pay attention to anything else,” Zhang Zhihao said. “But this is good news.”
“That’s definitely good news,” I said, looking at Sister Jing.
