While The Donovan family was enjoying a wonderful weekend in the countryside, Joy was toiling in
front of herputer.
She was wearing anti–fatigue sses and staring intently at theputer screen. Joy had one
hand on the keyboard and the other on the mouse, and she was using very professional software to
process a series of photos.
It was gettingte but she didn’t eat or even turn on her phone. She was so focused on her task at
hand and sat in front of theputer throughout the day.
It was not until the wee hours that Joy clicked “Save” and “Send“. Then, she let out a long breath in
relief. Her entire body was like a deted balloon. She leaned back, closed her eyes, and let her
hands fall limp. She was exhausted to the extent that she didn’t want to move.
After a little more than ten minutes, she opened her eyes and struggled to raise her left hand which
was almost cramping.
She took off her sses, picked up the ss on the table, and slowly drank all the milk in it.
Then, she picked up the chocte truffle on the table and slowly put it in her mouth.
It was not until she had eaten more than ten chocte truffles that she felt a trace of strength in her.
She could finally stand
1. up.
Then, Joy took out a pizza from the fridge, heated it up, and hurriedly finished it before throwing
herself onto the bed.

She fell into deep sleep immediately.
After what seemed like an eternity, her phone rang.
She picked up her phone in a daze and looked at it. A faint smile appeared on her lips and she
perked up. “Hello?”
The voice on the other end of the phone said, “The professor saw the picture you sent over and said
that you got it right. He wants you to continue what you’re doing.”
Joy smiled. “Help me thank him for thepliment. I’ll keep pushing myself.”
“The professor also asked you if you’ve found Franco’s identity and whereabouts?”
Joy shook her head and replied regretfully, “Although I participated in archaeological activities
organized by Franco and spent a lot of time with him, he didn’t trust me and never took off his mask.
I couldn’t see his face or even tell where he was from his ent and his way of speaking.
“During that period, only his assistants were allowed near him. I didn’t even have the chance to
speak to him.
“When we went into the mountains, we couldn’t bring our phones, cameras, recorder, etc. We
weren’t allowed to use ourselves had personally brought. All equipment and supplies were provided
by the team.
“Therefore, I still haven’t been able to find out Franco’s identity and whereabouts.
“I was able to bring back the prehistoric code, though. I memorized it.”
The prehistoric codes engraved on the stones had be patchy after thousands of years of
erosion. It was impossible to see what they were originally.
With her superb memory, Joy forcefully memorized all these fragmented,plicated, and unique
patterns and brought
them back with her.
After she had done so, she spent more than a month studying and cracking it day and night.

It was a veryplex undertaking.

ording to her understanding of prehistoric codes, and utilizing all the knowledge she had, Joy
tried to find the pattern in the creation of these codes, analyze the lines and symbols that were
missing from the pattern, and so on. Then, she had to repeatedly try andpare them to draw the
complete picture.
It wasn’t untilst night that Joy managed to crack the code.
It felt like half of her soul was drawn from her body.
After hearing her exnation, the person on the other end of the phone did not me her. He only
said, “Thanks for the hard work.
“I’ll ry your words to the professor, and I believe the professor will understand your tough
circumstances.”
The other party paused slightly. “No matter what, you’re already the person who did the best.”
Joy smiled. “Thank you.”
The other party asked again, “It’s Thanksgiving next week. You’reing back, right? I want to
spend the day with you.”
Joy lowered her eyes slightly. After a short moment of silence, she said, “Alright, I’ll go back for two
days.”
