I do not know how long it has been.
Miss White Wolf opened her eyes again.
She could hear Miss Ceylon's even breathing and knew that she had been asleep for a long time.
But she couldn't sleep.
There is no other reason, I just don't feel sleepy. It's similar to the situation last night, but last night's insomnia was probably due to panic and helplessness. Today I feel calm, but I still can't fall asleep, as if my body has forgotten how to sleep.
She silently summarized her own situations.
There is no feeling of hunger or sleepiness. The body will only faint when it can no longer support itself. Forcibly using blood source stone techniques to stimulate it can alleviate the symptoms of fainting...
Do all critically ill mineral patients end their lives in overdraft?
She determined that her condition was a typical vicious cycle. If she couldn't fall asleep, she would choose not to rest. If she forced herself to stay asleep, the deterioration would definitely accelerate to the extreme.
Fortunately, Miss White Wolf had read a lot of Rhode Island medical literature before, and she remembered that there was a rest method from Yan Country that was mentioned in it, and it seemed not difficult to implement.
So she emptied her mind, adjusted her breathing, and imagined the 'invisible energy' circulating in her body according to the description in the book.
Miss Bailang was not quite sure what the "invisible energy" of the Yan people was. In her opinion, it was probably a flow of consciousness. In short, her attention was successfully diverted and she gradually entered an unconscious semi-hypnotic state.
Facts have proved that although this method cannot solve the fact of insomnia, it does seem to be of some use. After closing her eyes for a long time, she felt much better.
The next day, Miss Ceylon got up before dawn, tiptoed to get dressed, washed up, then prepared breakfast for White Wolf. After leaving a note, she went to the research institute early.
Miss White Wolf pretended to be asleep to reassure Ceylon. After the other party left, she sat up from the bed and picked up the note on the desk to check it.
On it was Miss Ceylon's advice, telling her to have a good rest, remember that her health was important, and not to go to work at the institute in the next few days. There was also a cute smiley face drawing at the end of the note.
Miss White Wolf smiled and was about to throw the note away when she suddenly thought of something.
She checked the handwriting on the note again. It was very neat, obviously written by a model student. The stick figure drawing was a bit clumsy, and the owner probably rarely drew such things.
She folded the note, put it away carefully and put it in her pocket.
Afterwards, Miss White Wolf ate the breakfast that Ceylon prepared for her and continued to write a letter at her desk.
She has a lot to write about.
Ceylon, forgive me. You may still think that I am staying in Rhode Island for treatment, but when you see this letter from the Marquis, it means that I am no longer here. I have asked him to only read this letter when the news is confirmed...
I don't know how to make up for what I owe you. I think that in our lives, we will always meet many people, but not every encounter will have a result. Perhaps the process is where the meaning lies...
My life is too short, your time is long, forget me, Ceylon, forget me and you will be free...
……
Xiaota, you are the most special person in my life. You took me to see the world for the first time, to see its beauty and its tragedy...
Don't be affected by me, don't stop because of me, you have tried your best to protect me, my ending is just a part of the tragedy of the infected, our efforts are to break this tragedy...
The cause of the Integration Movement is my final dream, and the future of the infected is the meaning of everything I have done so far. Please carry on with me...
……
Bai Jin, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't fulfill my promise to you personally...
I have been keeping the card you gave me. I checked it and found a lot of money saved on it. I also saved all the money I earned from work. It adds up to more. With these, you can live a free life in the future...
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not pretending not to understand. I'm crying as I write. You said that you'll be happy with me, but I really can't be with you anymore. You have to be happy alone, okay?
……
I have always been shy and seldom called you uncle, but now it is all right and I don't care so much. Uncle Caroline, please help me take care of the people of Bingshi. You said that you should be responsible for your own people, but I can only go so far. The rest must be left to you.
……
Qin Liu, Shuang Xing, Angelina, Alina, Bozhuo Casti, Kal'tsit...
Miss White Wolf wrote short or long messages to everyone she knew. This was the advantage of being able to foresee death. She had plenty of time to leave these things.
She knew that not all messages would be delivered, and many were destined to be lost in this land full of poison, but she couldn't care less, she could only do what she could.
……
At noon, Miss Ceylon came back with lunch and had lunch with White Wolf.
"I had a good rest yesterday." The happiness on Ceylon's face came from the heart.
"Very good." Miss White Wolf clasped her hands together, placed them on her cheeks, and smiled happily, "I slept well and didn't get up until the sun shone into the room."
"That's good, but it's all thanks to me. I saw you were sleeping, so I was very careful not to wake you up."
"I know, so I want to thank you, dear Miss Ceylon, can you come and accompany me tonight?"
"Well... since you said so." Miss Ceylon blushed, "Then I will definitely come to look after you."
"Well, Ceylon, I want to tell you something else."
"You say."
"After a while, when my condition stabilizes, I may go to Rhodes Island. I'll leave the company's future affairs to you."
Miss Ceylon's eyes lit up and she nodded excitedly: "Yes, don't worry about the company, you can go right away."
"Don't tell the truth to anyone else. Just pretend that I'm on a business trip and taking a vacation at the same time."
"Okay, don't worry."
Miss White Wolf smiled and said, "But I'm afraid of delaying the work, so I want to hand over the things that only I can handle before to you. Of course, you don't have to be too stressed. Many things will be done by Mr. Mu, and you are only responsible for a part of them."
"Just leave it to me. I promise that the company can run smoothly even without you."
Miss White Wolf stared at Ceylon's face for a long time, then suddenly smiled, nodded, and murmured:
"Then I...have nothing to worry about."
Chapter 2023 Emergency Contact 11-27-12 00:03:
Integration Movement Tundra Station.
Under the chairmanship of Alina, a meeting of northern cadres at the highest emergency level is being held, with participants including W, Mephisto, Faust, Big Bob, Lei Tan, Broken Bone, Mudstone and others.
At the conference table, participants had different expressions.
Mephisto, Faust, and Bonebreaker looked serious, Big Bob, Leitan, and Mudrock looked confused, and the mercenary leader W maintained his usual cynical attitude.
Alina looked around at everyone and whispered, "We have called everyone here because something has happened that may endanger the organization. Due to confidentiality, only those directly involved know the situation. Let me explain it briefly.
"Five days ago, Garson, the nominal leader of the Sarkaz mercenaries, suddenly disappeared, along with more than 300 elite Sarkaz mercenaries in the camp. This happened at midnight, and three of Hedley's mercenaries on night duty were killed on the spot."
"There were no signs before the incident happened. No one knows Garson's motives. To be on the safe side, General Patriot has secretly gone to the south. The two mercenary leaders Hedley and Inès have also gone to the south to investigate."
"And the investigation results..." Alina glanced at W and said in a deep voice, "are very unfavorable."
Everyone's eyes turned to W, who restrained his casual attitude and became slightly more serious:
"Garson's team took the mountain road and headed south. As we speak, they should have reached the mountainous area in the south-central part of the empire."
As W spoke, he projected a strange small black square box onto the map in the center of the conference table, and pushed it with his finger, moving it to the mountainous area in the south-central part of the empire.
"Yes, it's about here."
Lei Tan looked at the map and said thoughtfully: "The logistics supplies are controlled by General Patriot. Since they left secretly, they can only take two days of rations. How did they go so far? Is there someone providing extra supplies?"
W smiled strangely: "Of course someone 'provides' it. They always take the most remote mountain roads, kill all the mountain people they meet, and rob as they go. They never lack food wherever they go."
"Are they crazy? The leader said that the fleeing mountain people are all our own people." Mephistopheles stood up in disbelief, then was pulled by Faust imperceptibly and sat down again.
Another mercenary cadre, Mud Rock, frowned and nodded with deep feeling: "Garson is powerful and ruthless. If it were him, it would be normal for him to lead people to do such a thing. The fact that we were forced to flee Kazdel had a lot to do with him."
"Will the Empire notice their mess along the way?" Big Bob couldn't help but ask.
Faust shook his head calmly. "It is because the civilians who were killed were all in the deep mountains that it is difficult for the Empire to find out what is wrong. And based on Hedley's habit, he should be able to do a good job of the aftermath. What we are mainly worried about is what Garson is going to do. Officer W, among the people present, you are the only one who is most likely to know this."
"Don't expect too much from me." W shrugged. "I only know that Garson is a dog of Tracys. He dared to do this only because of Tracys' orders. But no one knows what that bastard Tracys ordered."
“Perhaps, we should let them return to Kazdel?” Mephisto suggested in a low voice.
"Impossible." Faust shook his head without even thinking. "The Sarkaz mercenaries are in a cooperative relationship with us. If Garson wants to take people away, he can just leave openly. The leader should go out of his way to help them and won't kill Hedley's subordinates for fear of revealing their whereabouts."
"Is it possible?" Mephisto suggested again, "Sir Patriot, Hedley came forward and encountered Garson's team, and directly persuaded those mercenaries to leave Garson?"
Alina shook her head: "No, the leader has already made a promise a long time ago that the Sarkaz people who hope for peace will find a place to settle down in Ursus in the future. Those who are willing to follow us have already stayed. Those who left are those who firmly believe in Garson."
"It's not about trusting Garson." W corrected angrily, "It's about trusting that bastard Tracys. He should have died before the civil strife in Kazdel. If he had died earlier, Kazdel might have been revived. Don't you think so?"
Miss Mudstone, who was suddenly stared at by W, was stunned for a moment and quickly nodded.
She understood this fellow tribesman. She had long guessed that the other party was a former royal princess and hated Tracys to the core. No matter what the facts were, she just nodded.
After the discussion, Alina concluded: "So, we can now basically confirm that Garson left secretly to carry out the order of Kazdel Regent—Tressis. This order did not ask them to return to Kazdel, nor did it cause a conflict with us. They went all the way south and have already passed the center line of the empire. Is there anything in the south that they care about?"
Lei Tan said uncertainly: "It may be supplies. The natural conditions in the south are better, and the supplies are much more abundant than in the north, but they are all controlled by the nobles..."
He immediately denied himself: "Uh, forget what I said, it can't be because of supplies, there is no shortage at all."
Everyone was talking about it, but no one could explain it. Alina looked at the map in distress. She was good at managing logistics, but it was really too much to ask her to make such a key decision.
She suddenly thought of Miss White Wolf.
Others might think of the leader first when they are in trouble, but only those who have experienced the early stages of the Reunion Movement know that it is much more effective to go to Miss White Wolf than to the leader, because Tallulah always goes to Miss White Wolf for advice on everything.
However, Tallulah has strictly prohibited Miss White Wolf from being involved in anything related to the Reunion Movement.
Moreover, time is urgent now. Even if we want to ask the other party for help, it is too late. After all, contacting Bai Lang is a very troublesome thing, and it is impossible to let all the cadres wait here.
After much thought, she summarized the meeting:
"Everyone, although we don't know Garson's specific purpose, they have killed our compatriots - Hedley's subordinates, and are on their way to slaughter civilians. They came here because of the cooperation of the Reunion Movement, so we must be responsible for it."
"Leitan, Big Bob, and Mudstone, you will assist me in guarding the north. The rest of you will lead your troops to secretly head south to meet up with the leader and General Patriot. Follow their judgment and implement the next plan."
……
After everyone left, Miss W played with the small black box in her hand and yawned: "Why did you leave me alone?"
Alina thought about it and said, "You are a person."
W raised his head sensitively, and his voice rose a few degrees: "I'm not, my people were taken away by Hedley and Ines, just find them."
"I would like to ask you to go to the north of Koros City before you go south, secretly find Miss White Wolf and ask her what she thinks. If there is anything worth noting, tell Tallulah after you go south."
"Huh? Didn't the leader forbid us to have anything to do with her?"
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. I always feel that this matter is very important. It might even determine the life or death of the organization. I should let her know."
"I see. I'm very impressed by her."
"Impressive?"
Alina looked up in confusion, but Miss W had already disappeared with her little box.
Chapter 2023: Aftermath 11-28-12 00:02:
On a sunny afternoon.
Miss Ceylon had lunch with White Wolf, and they talked about work while eating.
In the past few days, Miss White Wolf has completely handed over her work to Ceylon, and similar discussions often occur, with Ceylon basically asking whether her handling of the matter is appropriate.
What made White Wolf happy was that Ceylon's ability once again exceeded her expectations.
On the one hand, it may be because he was used to helping out before, and on the other hand, it was the influence of Mayor Xiosta's family environment. Coupled with his personal efforts, Ceylan got the hang of business affairs at an incredible speed. In just a few days, he had learned most of it.
Since most of the affairs were handled by Mr. Mu and the Marquis, even if Ceylon made mistakes due to inexperience, there would be someone to cover it. It could be said that the preparations were complete, enough to put her at ease.
Miss White Wolf drank tea while looking at Ceylon gently: "Ceylon, you have now accessed the highest level of information in the company. Do you find anything wrong?"
Miss Ceylon scratched the back of her head in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Yes, there is something that only a few people know. Ms. Saria asked me about it on her first day at the company. Think about it and see if you need me to remind you."
"No need." Ceylon chuckled, "You have already allowed me to access the highest level of information in the company. If I still can't see it, how can I say that I can lead the company well?"
"You are very confident. Then tell me, what's wrong?"
“Capital chain.”
Miss White Wolf's expression did not change. She still had a faint smile on her face and asked, "Why is it the capital chain?"
"Early before the cooperation with Kjerag, or rather last year, after the cooperation with Longmen, Xiosta, and Lateran, the company's business scale began to expand rapidly. Later, with the help of Kalan Trade, the company's estimated revenue can be described as incredible. However, the money we earned seems to have gone into a bottomless pit. This bottomless pit has nothing to do with the company, but is controlled by the Marquis."
