I woke up at 3 p.m., and my whole body ached.
I sat up in bed, a little confused about where I was.
It took me a long time to come to my senses. When I got to the bathroom, I looked at myself in the mirror, disheveled and filthy.
After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I finally felt better.
Click.
Just then, my room door opened and someone walked in. I came out of the bathroom and saw that it was Lu Yun.
When Lu Yun saw me, she exclaimed in surprise, "You're awake!"
I nodded, not really wanting to say anything.
Lu Yun said, "My sister asked me to check if you're awake. If you are, she'll let you go to the lab next door."
I looked at Lu Yun and asked, "Fang Yuan is awake?"
Lu Yun nodded and said, "Yes, he woke up around nine o'clock this morning and is now able to get out of bed. He seems to be in very good spirits."
I frowned: "Why didn't you come and call me?"
Lu Yun pouted and said, "Why didn't I come to wake you? I've come to wake you twice already, okay? You always sleep like a log, I can't wake you up no matter what I do."
"……"is that so?
Lu Luyun seemed to read my mind and said, "Don't think about it. That's just how it is. I wanted to come and call you later, but my sister wanted you to sleep a little longer, so I didn't come over."
“Okay, thanks,” I said.
Lu Yun laughed and said, "That's more like it. By the way, there's something I want to ask you."
I looked at her, rubbing my still tired cheeks. "What is it?"
Lu Yun asked, "Was the man who came back with my sister this morning Li Jiaming?"
I looked at her in surprise. "Didn't your sister tell you?"
Lu Yun shook her head: "No. So, tell me, is he Li Jiaming?"
It seems that Sister Jing was also on guard because she didn't tell Lu Yun about Li Jiaming.
I smiled, said nothing, walked past Lu Yun, left the room, and strode towards the laboratory next door.
Lu Yun chased after him, shouting, "Hey, Lu Xiaonan! Why don't you tell me!"
I walked quickly and soon arrived at the laboratory, where I saw Fang Yuan sitting on a stool, looking much better.
Lu Yun chased after me and blocked my way, saying, "Lu Xiaonan, tell me quickly, is that person Li Jiaming?"
I glanced at the people in the lab; only Sister Jing and Fei Lichao were there. The others were not there.
After hearing Lu Yun's commotion, Sister Jing came over and pulled Lu Yun aside, saying, "Alright, stop fooling around. We need to talk about serious matters. If you want to stay, behave yourself. I'll tell you who that person is after this is over. If you don't behave, you can go outside and wait."
Lu Yun listened to Sister Jing and pouted, saying, "Okay, I'll be quiet, is that alright?"
Sister Jing smiled and pulled Lu Yun to sit down beside her.
The lab door closed, and I went to Fang Yuan's side to examine him. "How are you feeling? Besides these wounds, is there anything else that hurts?"
Fang Yuan looked surprised for a moment and said, "No, that's all."
"Well, it should be fine now. These are all superficial wounds, no infection has occurred, they'll heal in a few days," I said.
Fang Yuan looked at me in surprise.
I said, "I'm a doctor."
After I finished speaking, Fang Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Yun said nonchalantly from the side, "He's just a doctor, why are you so surprised?"
Jing patted her head, signaling her to be quiet. Lu Yun tilted her head and snorted.
It took Fang Yuan a long time to come to his senses before he said, "I'm sorry about earlier."
I said, "It's okay."
Fang Yuan said, "Oh, right, I haven't thanked you yet. You saved me again."
I said, "There's no need to say more. I only saved you because I felt sorry for you, and I didn't mean anything by it."
A strange emotion flashed in Fang Yuan's eyes. He nodded and said, "I know. To be honest, I'm really sorry about what happened that night. I was forced to do it because I had no other choice."
I said, "I won't pursue this matter further, but there's something I need to ask you clearly. I want to know who exactly you were being hunted down, what kind of beings are those raiders you mentioned, and why they were hunting you down?"
Upon hearing my three questions, Fang Yuan looked away and said, "The people chasing me are actually a small group of raiders. Let me tell you about this raider group first."
"Um."
Fang Yuan said, "Actually, this raider team is a very large team. They are a very dispersed organization with many small groups, each with about ten to twenty people. The largest I've seen is more than thirty. Among them, there is a core team in this raider team that specializes in providing weapons."
“I’ve heard from those raider squads that the core team is an army. They established a base in a town called Central Town, and then, in order to expand their power and obtain more resources, they started developing raider squads.”
"The development method is to have the raider squads exchange resources for military weapons, and then this cycle continues. As long as the raider squads can obtain resources from the outside world, they can exchange them for guns, ammunition, and military items such as bulletproof vests."
When I heard this, I suddenly felt panicked. The core team of this raider was probably really an army, otherwise where would they get so many weapons?
I swallowed hard and said, "Go on."
Fang Yuan continued, "That's all I know about this raider team. As for the ones chasing me, it was just one of the raider squads. There were about thirteen or fourteen of them, but I don't know the exact number."
"As for why this squad is chasing me, it's because I know the exact location of a granary. In raider groups, if the offering is food, they can get better weapons, which is why they are chasing me like this."

Voice Recorder Diary 10:
"December 12th, a very strange day. My test subject died in the early hours of this morning. The specific cause of death is unknown, and they didn't tell me. It seems to be different from the cause of death of Lin Zijie's test subject. The experiment is still ongoing. Today is the third group. We don't know the specific situation. The previous observations are of no reference value. In short, today was very peaceful. Nothing happened. However, that guy named Li Fei, the one who caught a cold before me, seems to have gotten a worse cold."
