Chapter 87 - 85: The Diary

Chapter 87: Chapter 85: The Diary

"Quick, quick." Qin Jiagui took the lead, covering his nose and mouth as he went into the stone cave. The others looked at each other, bracing themselves to follow suit. Holding their nausea, they dragged out the decomposed bodies of three children.

"Let’s bury them together, quickly." Li Dong, Zhou Huakang, and others hurriedly used their shovels to dig a pit right there, burying the bodies of the three children and York together. The foul smell in the stone cave lingered, but compared to the danger of staying outside, they mustered up the courage to move in. Li Dong and Zhou Huakang used their strength to block the cave entrance with a boulder, leaving only a small crevice open.

In this way, they felt slightly consoled from the core of their hearts, an instinctive sense of increased safety. Moreover, there were traps left by York around. Given their current situation, staying inside this stone cave undoubtedly felt like the best choice.

Su Yu, Ma Ziye, and Zhou Birong were severely injured. All laid to one side to rest. Among them, Su Yu was the most critically injured, yet his recovery was the most astonishing, making it likely he would heal the fastest out of the three.

Ma Ziye and Zhou Birong had also been pierced with steel spikes. Lei Rui, Su Yun, and the other women helped them undress to carefully remove the spikes. Meanwhile, Qin Jiagui and the other men went outside the cave. Su Yu, being heavily injured, had the luck of staying inside the cave. The others were secretly envious, but little did they know that Su Yu was contending with making himself dizzy from the foul odor. Furthermore, the women were also covered in blood. To be frank, there wasn’t anything worth looking at, nor did it spark any interest.

Once everything was finally sorted, Qin Jiagui, who had been lost in thought, suddenly gasped. He had unintentionally noticed a flat stone at the end of the stone cave, under which seemed to be something concealed. An edge was currently exposed. When Qin Jiagui moved the stone to pick it up, it was a thin diary, a ballpoint pen was tucked inside.

"What is this?" Qin Jiagui exclaimed in surprise as he flipped open the diary.

"Hmm? All in English?" Zhang Zhongmou walked over and saw the writing. His face showed confusion as he barely understood it.

Qin Jiagui glanced at it and was shocked, "Is this a diary left by Jennifer? This... this..." He looked astonished. Steps approached as Lei Rui also came over. She looked at it and nodded, "Yes, you’re correct."

The diary was filled with English entries. Though they weren’t sure where she found the paper and pen, it was indeed her diary.

Zhang Zhongmou widened his eyes, "What did she write? Jennifer really had the leisure to do this?"

At this moment, even the severely injured Su Yu, Ma Ziye, Zhou Birong were attracted, looking over at the diary in Qin Jiagui’s hands.

Lei Rui took the diary from Qin Jiagui and began to read aloud.

"5th, York drove a car carrying myself and three children, John, Anna, and Merk. On our way back, we encountered misfortune. Perhaps it was a joke from God or perhaps we were summoned by demons. Maybe we were already dead. A massive pit suddenly appeared in front of the car. Unable to stop, we fell into the pit. Following that, we ended up in a terrifying forest. I kept wondering, are we still alive? Are we already dead?"

Lei Rui’s voice echoed in the cave as everyone else grew quiet. Thinking of the decomposing bodies of the three children in the cave, they all understood. Those children must be York’s and Jennifer’s.

"There were all sorts of terrifying monsters in the forest. York and I both believe they are emissaries of demons. Despite the danger, York was optimistic. He believed he could protect myself and the kids. The monsters destroyed our car leaving us with only the food and supplies it held. With the three kids, we tried to leave the forest. Soon we ran out of food and had to eat tree leaves and the flesh of monsters. On the third day, we met three people who had some food. They agreed to let us join them, but they didn’t agree to let us bring the kids."

"York got angry. We fought. York was seriously injured, but he killed those three men and took their food. But my youngest child, Merk, died."

"York didn’t believe Merk was dead. Carrying Merk’s body on his back, he refused to accept reality due to the shock. He loved the children too much."

"10th, York’s mental state has become more and more unstable. The monsters we encounter are getting horrifying. York killed a Golden Goblin, obtaining a ’Treasure Map.’ The map indicated a way to leave this forest, maybe even this world..."

Lei Rui stopped reading when she reached this point, Zhang Zhongmou and the others hurried over, asking, "Treasure Map? What does it say afterward?"

Lei Rui hesitated for a moment, appearing somewhat nervous, and then continued reading.

"Although York killed the Golden Goblin, they were too terrifying. Both of us were seriously injured, John and Anna both died. York developed delusional split personality disorder, keeping the bodies of the children and talking to them every day. I couldn’t help York; all I could do was stay by his side. I love York."

"We found a cave to stay in. Each day, York would wander around, day and night, dedicated to killing others to obtain food for the children. I had no other choice but to follow him. I need to protect York."

"York, I love the kids, and I love you even more."

"I am very afraid. I know York and I will die. There’s no way out, no hope."

As Lei Rui read to this point, her voice became low and hoarse. The oppressive atmosphere filled the cave. Everyone fell silent, seemingly able to feel York’s madness and Jennifer’s despair and helplessness.

"The treasure box from the Golden Goblin contained a map showing a way out of the forest. However, York was unwilling to leave, believing the children were still alive. To embark on the journey with the kids would be dangerous so he wanted to wait for them to grow up before leaving. I couldn’t leave York, I could only stay with him. I was willing to die with York here."

"After exploring this area for a few days, I gradually understood our surroundings. At the back of this, I’ve drawn a map. Hopefully, if someone chances upon this cave and finds this diary after York and I are dead, it will be of help. The map at the back of this diary combined with the one from the treasure box should definitely aid in leaving the forest. However, it won’t be York and I..."
