Chapter 115 – Sister Su (1)
In this world, there isn’t a single person who could rely on plastic surgery to transform into Su Jin’s appearance.
However, Mu Xiulun didn’t know that not only was there someone who had the same appearance as Su Jin, but that person’s name was also “Su Jin.”
……
A far distance from here.
Australia, Kakadu National Park.
“Dammit! This network signal amplifier must be fake!!”
In the narrow and small staff lounge, there was the roaring of curses. The normally gentle and kind Canadian young man, Edwin, was now “fiercely” glaring at the laptop screen. At the bottom right corner of the screen, there was only one miserable bar for network signals.
Kakadu was good in all aspects. There weren’t many people, but there were a lot of animals. It was quiet and lonely. For the people who were unwilling to connect with people, it was definitely the dreamed utopia.
But even the dreamed utopia needs the Internet!!
Edwin was an out-and-out housebird. Besides spending his entire time on his Ph.D research paper that he could never finish writing, he would spend the rest of his time on the Internet.
What a pity that the Kakadu National Park was too vast and wasn’t suitable for people to live in. Besides the animals living here, there were only limited staff members. Therefore, it would cost too much to build a signal tower and plus, they wouldn’t make a profit off it. Therefore, entering Kakadu meant abandoning the bustling world of technology.
Taking advantage of the vacation, he drove a few hundred kilometers and went to buy a network signal amplifier in the capital city, Darwin. Yet, no matter how he tried and adjusted the tool, there was only one weak bar of signal.
He couldn’t play any videos!
He couldn’t watch any news!!
He couldn’t share any gossip!!!
However, he could easily send emails and communicate with his teacher…
Edwin’s murmurings filled every corner of the lounge, but no one bothered with him. Benny was already in the forties, and the two children at home liked to go online. However, she didn’t understand the Internet. Ana Ivanović, this old army ruffian, went online just to check out Russian women dancing provocatively. Since he couldn’t go online, he’ll get himself drunk, so that he could see them in his dream…
Edwin really needed someone to comfort him. He glanced around the lounge room and his gaze landed on a certain rear view standing by the window with their back against them.
The view in front of the glass window was really good and best for receiving sunlight. In the past, it had been occupied by Ana Ivanović. However, two months ago, he directly gave the spot to the new volunteer. One couldn’t even bear to watch his enthusiasm.
“Su. Don’t… don’t you use the Internet?” Edwin mustered his courage to ask. Although he was trying to start a conversation, his face already flushed.
The girl raised her head from the book and then she used a bookmark to mark her book calmly. After that, she turned around and smiled as she glanced at the curly, young man.

“I don’t go online.” she said, “I brought a lot of books. These books can satisfy me.”
She wasn’t that old, but her hobbies and interests were completely different from the current youngsters.
Edwin always felt as if this new volunteer was too specific. This Chinese girl, Su Jinqing, lived a life of isolation. She didn’t go online nor did she use her phone to communicate with her friends or family. A few months ago, she had carried a small suitcase here. Everyone thought that a delicate girl like her would be unable to adjust to Kakadu’s dry and dull lifestyle. Who knew that not only did she stay, but even got used to it extremely well.
Edwin remembered that during the first day she came here, her long hair was scattered on her shoulders and down her waist. It was a certain black color that he had never seen before. It sparkled under the sunlight and even the Chinese peacock butterfly’s wings couldn’t compare to her beauty.
But from the second day, in order to move around conveniently, the girl placed her hair into a bun using a wooden hairpin. Chinese people were really special. They could use the slender and long wooden stick to eat and likewise, place their hair into a bun using the same wooden stick.
Edwin retracted his gaze from her, only daring to stare at the tiles in front of his feet. “I also like to read, but the Internet is very interesting too. There is a lot of information on the Internet that the books don’t have. You can even watch videos and such.”
“I’m not interested in that.” Su Jinqing’s voice wasn’t loud. “People have control over the cameras and can choose to record what they want. However, they don’t represent people’s genuine lives. That has been packaged and chosen beforehand. The story might be interesting and touching, but it’s an end product that has been packaged before.”
Edwin was speechless.
Sometimes, he felt like Su Jinqing was much more mature for her age. She seemed like a delicate flower on the surface, but the things she said and did made her appear like a tenacious and sturdy vine, tightly wrapping herself.
Edwin wanted to say something else when the clock hung on the wall suddenly rang. It was seven in the evening, time for the Henan River to patrol.
“Sorry, Su. I’m going to have to trouble you during this period.” Benny sat on the wheelchair and there was a layer of gauze wrapped around her right feet. Last week, when she came down from the boat, she sprained her ankle. The doctor said that she needed to rest for at least 20 days.
Every evening, it was necessary to patrol the Henan River. The tourists who came to visit the Kakadu National Park were all eager to take the boat to cross the Henan River in order to admire the crocodiles and animals on the beach.
They were the only staff members in this region. Originally, Benny was in charge of the patrolling. However, after she was injured, she could only leave this job for the others.
Edwin was afraid of society. If he was to be a tour guide for the tourists, he’d die! Don’t mention Ana Ivanović. He had a bald head with scars on his face, paired along with a fierce looking face. He was scarier than the crocodiles in the water.
Therefore, she made a final decision to have Su Jinqing in charge of the patrol.
Benny was originally worried about Su Jinqing. Who knew that she, who had only been here for three months, not only memorized the tour guide script, but wasn’t afraid when facing the audience. She had a natural and unrestrained attitude as though she thrived in people’s attention.
“Don’t worry, Benny. I’m very happy to be able to help you.” Su Jinqing stood up and took the work permit hanging off of the wall, as well as the walkie-talkie. Then, she walked out of the lounge room.

……
On the dock, there was a cruise boat big enough to carry a hundred passengers, stopping there.
The boat was public, the guardrail around the surrounding area was tall and packed in order to prevent tourists from accidentally falling into the water.
The boat was flat and had a shallow draft. It was a bit dangerous to step on it since it would be shaking and rocking back and forth. However, this was what made it interesting.
The Henan River was vast. In order to make it easy to manage, it was divided into different regions and different work stations were in charge of each. The tourists on the boat all came from the previous region. They were now leaning against the guardrail interestedly, taking pictures and admiring the scene. They recorded the scenery using their cameras.
