Chapter 10 The Great Library of Baruch
To be clear, the Red Mist mutation I wrote about will be very different from the original, in which Marisa was supposed to meet Fran first and then Pache Lisa, but they didn't know each other at the time, so I changed the characters of the two sides.
ββββ Remilia's bedroomββββ
Lying on the bed, Remi lazily closed her eyes and asked, "Sakiya, are they here?"
After Remi finished asking this sentence, the figure of the maid Nagasaki suddenly appeared in front of the bed out of thin air, and after saluting Remy, she replied respectfully, "Miss, someone has already come, but for some reason, Jinyue has also come." β
"Oh?" Hearing this, Remy opened her eyes and sat up and spread out her right hand, a ball of intertwined red threads slowly appeared in her hand, and after staring at the red thread for a while, Remy said suspiciously, "Strange, there is a deviation in fate?" But forget it, you continue to patrol the corridor in the night." Oh, it's really interesting to have a wrong fate. β
"Yes, Miss. After saluting Remy, Sakiya's figure disappeared into the room again.
ββββ hallway somewhere in the Red Devil Pavilionββββ
"It's ...... Where?" Looking at the corridor covered with scarlet carpet in front of him, Konzuki's head couldn't turn around, obviously he was with Reimu and Marisa before, but just as he was about to knock on the door, the scene in front of him became like this. "Reimu-san, Marisa, where are you?" Konzuki shouted, but only echoes of the empty hallway echoed her. "Looks like I'm going to figure it out myself.,Really.,This is the first time I've solved the mutation.,How can I think I'm just an intern.,Now start doing it alone as a real big man?"

"That's terrible DAβ ZE!" Looking at the corridor in front of her, Marisa scratched her head helplessly, "As a magician, I should have noticed that Pache had set up a teleportation arrayβ at the gate DA ZE, I was really careless, I need to find Reimu and Kinzuki quickly." With that, Marisa flew down the hallway on her broomstick.

"What are you doing!" Looking at the corridor in front of her, Reimu complained, "It was plotted, but then again......" Finding that Konzuki and Marisa were not around, Reimu looked at the empty corridor and said thoughtfully, "That magic teleportation array should have been done by Pachou just now, using the teleportation array, is it trying to break us apart?" Thinking so, Reimu clenched the imperial coin in his hand and flew towards the depths of the corridor.
ββββ thirty minutes laterββββ
"What's going on? The Red Devil Pavilion is too big, isn't it?" After walking in the corridor alone for nearly thirty minutes, Jinyue finally sensed that something was wrong. No matter how I walked, I didn't see a single person, and there were forks and corridors everywhere, as if I would never be able to finish. And until now not even a single door has appeared. It feels like the entire Red Devil Pavilion only has forks and corridors.
"Someone must have hidden the door, and in that case, I'll follow the path, and I don't believe in the right-hand principle, and I can't even find a door. β
After making up his mind, Jinyue put his right hand on the wall and used the right-hand principle (if you don't know what the right-hand principle is, please ask Du Niang on the Internet.) While touching the wall, Kinzuki slowly walked forward.
"Forehead ......" looked at the stairs and forks in front of him with a whimsical thought, and Jinyue lifted the table in his heart and said wildly, "Pit! Why did you forget that this is not a labyrinth but a foreign pavilion, how should you choose now?"
looked at the steps going up, and Jinyue suddenly felt a furious in his heart, "Forget it, let's go down." Thinking so, Jinyue cautiously walked downstairs.
"Hmm, how do you choose?" Three minutes later, Marisa arrived, and she looked at it and said, "It's decided, people go to higher places, water flows to lower places, I'll go up, DAβ ZE." With that, Marisa swaggered upwards on her broomstick.
"Is this a multiple-choice question?" Reimu arrived five minutes later, she looked at it and said, "What's the trouble then?" With that, Reimu slowly flew down the road towards the depths of the corridor.
In this way, the three people who could have met were separated again because of their own decisions.........
Let's talk about the past month, after walking down the stairs for more than ten minutes, she finally walked to the end of the corridor, at the end of the corridor are two huge wooden doors, the wooden doors look old, and the paint on them is peeling off a lot, giving people a sense of vicissitudes. However, there is not a trace of dust on it, as if someone has come to clean it regularly, and the front of the wooden door is engraved with the words "Baruch Great Library".
"Baruch Great Library?" Seeing the words on it, Jinyue thought to himself silently and said, "How can the library be built underground, it is neither ventilated nor transparent, and the air is still humid, in this case, the books can be easily damaged, and the person who built the library must be a fool." β
After making sure that there was nothing wrong with the door, Konzuki reached out and slowly pushed open the door of the library.
"Crunch-"
In the silent Western-style pavilion, the sound of the wooden door opening was particularly harsh, and at the same time, it also frightened the moon in shock, for fear that the sound would be too loud to attract the enemy. When the wooden door opened enough for a person to pass through, Konzuki immediately stopped pushing the door, and then turned sideways and flashed behind the wooden door.
Behind the gate, as it is written, is a huge library, a library of unimaginable size. Inside were stacked with layers of books, and every few steps there was a bookshelf stuffed with books, and this was only one floor, not counting the books upstairs and downstairs.
"Oh my God, there are so many books!" Looking at the books around him, Konzuki couldn't help but sigh, "How the hell can we build a library with so many books!"
However, he sighed and sighed, and Jinyue was still tiptoeing against the bookshelves and walking cautiously, and there was a small magic array for lighting on each bookcase, but the light was still very dim. However, it is also beneficial for the moon to hide his tracks.
"It's not a way to go on like this. After walking for a while, Jinyue tiptoed along and thought, "What if there is no one in this library?"
At this moment, Konzuki turned around a bookshelf and collided with a red-haired girl with a pair of demon wings on her head and waist.
"Little Devil?!" "Near Moon?!"
Seeing that the little devil was about to scream, Jinyue hurriedly rushed up and threw the little devil to the ground and covered her mouth.
"Hmm. The little devil struggled to ask for help, but Jinyue whispered in the little devil's ear while covering the little devil's mouth, "Please don't make a noise, okay? I have no malicious intent, I'm just here to investigate the mutation." β
"......" looked at the little devil, and the little devil stopped struggling, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he felt that his left foot was entangled in something, and then he was dragged down by that thing from the little devil, and then he was pressed under the little devil.
"This is?!" Seeing what he was wrapped around his left foot, Konzuki thought with a headache, "Why did you forget the little devil's tail?"
"Tell me honestly, what the hell are you here for?" asked the little devil as he stared into his eyes.
"I'm really just here to investigate the mutation. Jinyue wanted to cry and said without tears, a second ago, he was still pressing the little devil under him, but the feng shui took turns, and now it is the turn of the little devil to press himself down. Is this retribution?
"Really?" "Really. β
"Little devil, what are you doing?"
Just as the little devil was about to continue to torture Jinyue, a voice came from above the heads of the two.
