On the way back to the dorm, Dali quietly imparted some coping strategies to Jack. He said seriously, "When you see Bruce, don't show any unusual behavior. Just act normal, understand? Keeping calm is very important."
Jack nodded, deeply understanding the importance of this. They stood in front of the dorm door, Dali took a deep breath, and then pushed the door open with force. The dorm was quiet, and Owen and Bruce hadn't returned yet.
Jack quietly walked into the dorm and sat on his bed. He tried to calm his emotions and thought about how to remain composed when Bruce returned. He knew that any hint of abnormality could raise Bruce's suspicion, posing a risk to their plan to expose the conspiracy.
Under this tension and pressure, Jack's thoughts kept swirling. He repeatedly reminded himself to stay calm and collected, not to let his worries and fears show. At the same time, he silently thanked Dali for the support and advice. With a friend like Dali by his side, Jack didn't feel alone.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the door of the dormitory was gently pushed open, and Owen and Bruce walked in. Their conversation followed, filled with discussion and reminiscence of the movie they had just watched. Owen seemed particularly interested in a certain plot point, while Bruce echoed his thoughts with enthusiasm.
Jack sensed a subtle movement by his bedside and looked up. He saw Dali make a small gesture towards him, conveying a message of "stay calm." Jack took a deep breath, reminding himself to stay composed and not show any signs of unease.
Bruce walked to Jack's bedside, with a gentle smile on his face. His voice sounded caring and gentle: "Jack, how are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?" His eyes scanned over Jack, as if checking on his condition.
Jack slowly sat up, trying to make his voice sound calm and natural: "I'm okay, Bruce. I just went to the medical room, and the doctor gave me some medicine. I should be feeling better soon." He deliberately avoided too many details in his words, not wanting Bruce to notice his abnormality.
Bruce nodded, seemingly satisfied with Jack's response: "That's good. Take care of yourself. The epidemic is quite serious in the shelter right now. Get some rest." His words seemed to reveal a hint of concern.
Jack just smiled faintly, but his heart was in turmoil. He knew that every action and every word now could affect his and Dali's next plan. Under this tension and pressure, Jack had to maintain the utmost calm and wisdom.
As the night quietly passed, a new day arrived. Jack, as usual, appeared on time at his post in the engineering department. His physical condition had noticeably improved, with fewer spasms and a gradual easing of his fever. To his surprise, he even felt stronger and more resilient than before. This physical change made him feel more adept at handling the heavy engineering work.
However, despite the improvement in his physical condition, Jack did not relax his mood. He still felt uneasy about the conspiracy involving Bruce and Helen that lingered in his mind. He was well aware of the potential threat these two posed to the shelter, so he remained vigilant, closely monitoring their every move.
During work breaks, Jack often communicates with Dali. Their conversations always take place in brief moments outside of work, and are filled with metaphors and implications. Dali often conveys a kind of understanding to Jack with smiles and nods, as if to say, "We are dealing with this matter, and everything will be okay."
At lunchtime, Jack meets Dali in the cafeteria. Dali is holding a tray with a simple yet balanced meal, and he walks towards the table where Jack is sitting. A hint of anticipation appears on Jack's face, and they engage in a quiet conversation while having their meal.
Dali assured Jack that he had contacted some reliable friends and was trying to gather more evidence about Bruce and Helen. A glimmer of hope shone in Jack's eyes as he knew Dali's efforts could be the key to exposing the conspiracy.
" How long do you think it will take for us to expose their plan?" Jack asked cautiously.
Dali took a deep breath and replied, "Not sure, but we are doing our best. As long as there's a shred of evidence, we can take action."
The conversation between the two came to an end as lunchtime concluded. Jack stood up, filled with determination and hope. He knew the battle was far from over, but at least they were moving in the right direction. They had to be patient and wait for the right time to reveal the whole truth.
During the afternoon work hours, Jack's mood noticeably lightened. He felt relieved by Dali's progress report and believed they were moving in the right direction to expose Bruce and Helen's conspiracy. This optimistic attitude made him more focused and efficient at work.
As he operated various engineering equipment and carried out maintenance and inspection work, his thoughts often drifted to those conspiracies and plans. Jack firmly believed that as long as they could steadily gather evidence and take action at the right time, Bruce and Helen's conspiracy would eventually be exposed.
Jack focused on completing one task after another. He was dexterous and sharp-minded. Every time he finished a job, he would secretly celebrate, as it meant he was one step closer to his goal. Each success seemed like a small counterattack against injustice and conspiracy.
He occasionally communicated with colleagues to ensure that all projects were progressing as planned. In these conversations, Jack always remained cautious, so as not to inadvertently reveal any suspicions about Bruce and Helen. He knew that every step now required careful consideration, as any mistake could lead to the failure of the plan.
With the end of the work, Jack felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment. He believed that as long as everyone united, the future of the shelter would still be full of hope. With this belief, he ended a fulfilling day of work, ready to return to the dormitory, looking forward to more good news tomorrow.
