:( Need help: Once a field is entered, another field needs to be updated automatically

Hey good people,

I am adding 3 images to better illustrate my ASK.

ASK: As a phone consultant, after I enter the store number on the case page layout, I want another field to appear on the same page layout with the corresponding zone number of the store on a new field called Zone.

Basically in short, as a phone consultant adds the store number (lookup field to account) in the field (see attached image), another field (called Zone) should appear with the correct zone number.

What is the easiest solution(s) to fulfill this ASK?

Any guidance/help will grealty be appreciated.

I see it after I save, I thought it was a dynamic field.
