June 5th, half past eight in the morning

"Then this is the club activity today!" The thick stack of books was piled on the wooden table, and the dust raised from the inside of the pages made the people around the wooden table cough

"Ahem, what did Chitanda-chan bring this time?" Fukube asked as he struggled to stop coughing

"These are all books in the underground warehouse that I borrowed from Mr. Sakuno," said Chitanda Airu, the head of the Classics Department, as she patted the dust off her hands and said happily, "There are many old books that have no authors or titles, so please name them!" ”

"You know, these are not really books without names, they are just badly damaged, and they can't see the nomination clearly," Oriki Buntaro casually picked up a book and flipped through it, "Isn't this Natsume Soseki's masterpiece "I Am a Cat"? ”

"Well, it's really," Chitanda Airu said in surprise after taking the book and looking at it a few times, "so what about the rest?" ”

"Harran. Coben's masterpiece "The Fog in the Forest", this book has a hardcover chapter at home, I like it very much~" Fukube Rishi picked up a book and said happily

"This is too easy to recognize, right? The British "Harry Potter" series of books, the magicians' popular masterpiece "Maya Ihara simply picked up four or five heavy books in one breath and slapped them in front of herself, "Lend me back and have a look"

"I don't know," Chong shook his head after closing the book in his hand, which was roughly the same thickness as the magazine, "I've never heard of the contents inside."

"Even you don't know I'm coming to see it," Oriki Bongtaro took the book and flipped through it a few times, and then he frowned, "This kind of writing technique is not commonly used by any famous writer I know, and the content of the story is very strange, but is it really a book?" ”

"Books that even Origi-san and Taka-san don't know" Chitanda Airu lowered her head and muttered to herself, "I ......"

(It's over) both of them prayed in their hearts at the same time, don't say that again!!

"I'm curious!" it! It's that sentence again! This is no different from the declaration of death!

"Then Bongtaro, please go to the library and find the original of this book~" Fukube Rishi chuckled and waved goodbye to him

"Come on~~~" Maya Ihara laughed with a lively attitude

"Do you want to go together," asked Otagi Bongtaro after standing up helplessly

"Yes" After thinking about it, he felt that if he continued to stay here, he might be asked to do something else, so he would rather choose what seemed easier

"Straight to the library?" Origi Buntaro, an energy conservationist, asked helplessly, "It's a little far from the club, and the administrator of Shionomiya is very slow to speak."

"Then go directly to the Literature and Art Department" pointed to the corner of the stairs, "There is also a library inside, and it is all literary works"

"Okay," so the two of them went to the art department

———————————————————————————————————— Department of Literature and Art

"A book that can't find a name and author? Does it taste good? After hearing their intentions, Amano Toko's eyes flashed, "Give me a few pages."

"Do you want to give it?" Oriki Buntaro hesitated and asked himself, this was not a question without common sense, but he felt that Amano Toko might be able to tell whose book it was from the taste, although he was not embarrassed by the book itself, but they were just trying to find out the name of the book

"Tear one up," Chong spread out the book and tore it out from the inside

"Whew~" After stuffing the paper into her mouth, Amano Toko swallowed it in small bites, and then after swallowing it with a "grunt", she sighed, "It tastes strange, it's a bit like whiskey with dragon fruit, well, if you want to describe it, the author wrote this book with the feeling of being separated from his lover and being pressed by the world."

"It sounds very esoteric, so senior sister, can you tell who wrote it?"

"I don't know, I've never eaten a book with this flavor" Enko Amano fell back on the table and dozed off, "Yawn~ It should just be an essay novel bound by private binding as a souvenir, so don't be entangled in some strange things~"

"I also want her not to do this, but this is also a serious club activity," Origi Buntaro walked back helplessly, "Anyway, thank you, senior sister, please continue to rest"

"Well~Oriki-kun also has to work hard~" So Amano Toko fell asleep again, she didn't need to worry about credits, she had done a lot of ghostwriting for the teacher, and those documents were enough to replace her attendance

"If Sister Yuanzi doesn't know, then it seems unlikely that you can find it in the library, and there is still a club in the school that is open to the outside world?" Origi Buntaro continued to flip through the books in his hand as he walked, "Aren't there several words in the Faculty of Letters?" ”

"There's one more, but there may be some problems," Chong glanced to the left side of the Faculty with a sad look

—————————————————————————————————— Book Department

"What happens when I get in the library?" Oriki Bongtaro had never heard of this ministry at all, "Speaking of which, who is the president?" ”

"Strictly speaking, Shirasaki Omi, but because I didn't apply to the student council and the discipline department, I'm in a state where there is no minister" When it comes to official affairs, Chong doesn't think about it in advance, "There are a lot of rare books in it, and it's a personal item."

"Will you lend it to us?" Origi Shotaro was surprised, "Books that need to be collected are usually expensive."

"Maybe not, try it anyway," Chong took a deep breath and stepped forward and knocked on the door of the library department

"Who?" An innocent female voice came from inside

"Minister of Discipline and Discipline, Jieyun Chong" After Chong reported his full name, he silently took a step back

"Hey~" Then Oriki Buntaro saw a girl with long black ponytail rushing out of the ministry, and if Chong hadn't hurriedly grabbed her feet, she might have fallen directly from under the windowsill

"Huha, I'm scared to death," the girl wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, "Don't do this!" It's going to be dangerous! ”

(I think it's probably your own fault) Oriki thought to himself

"I think it's your own fault," except for the different position of the ellipsis, everything else is the same, "I want to borrow your private collection, agree?" ”

"Of course~Chongjun's words, we are a hundred willing~" The girl immediately greeted her with a smile, "Come, please come in, I'll let someone make you tea right away"

"Isn't this popularity quite good," Origi Buntaro, who didn't have many friends, sighed, and then hesitated to follow Chong's back and go inside

"Ha~ Isn't this a senior who worships seniors?" Kana Suzuki, who was in the same class as him, was happy when she saw Chonghou for some reason, "Please sit down, I'll make you tea right away, alas?" Bongtaro-kun is here too? Welcome, welcome~"

"Thank you" Oriki Buntaro reluctantly sat down and didn't know how to say to them, saying why did I sit at the end of the long table and Takashi sat directly next to the girl?! Although I save energy, I won't be reduced to the position of the protagonist and friend, right?!

"Well, although it's very happy that Chongjun can please us, but none of the books we brought this book are in it," Sakuraba Yuzao tilted his head and said, "It's not like an old book, judging from the yellowing of the paper, it should only be two or three years old, or Chongjun, you go and ask the teachers if you know."

"Thank you very much, goodbye," Chong got up and walked briskly out of the library

"Huh?! Why don't you sit a little longer?! Bontaro-san, please help me" So Oriki Buntaro left in a hurry when he might be asked to do something

"There shouldn't be a teacher in our school who can reach this level of literature?" After carefully flipping through the books in his hands, Origi Fengtaro had to sigh at the literary accomplishment contained in this book, with proper words and concise sentences, only using just over ten pages of paper and ink to write a story of driving for people vividly, and from time to time it was mixed with irony of social humanity, if he knew the author's name, he would also be willing to spend a short break to read his masterpiece

"Forget it, that's all I have to do" Chong stopped suddenly, and then grabbed the book in his hand and walked to the first floor, "Wait here for ten minutes"

—————————————————————————————————— revealed

"The name of the book is "Float", and the author is the official principal of the campus" By the time the investigation was clear and they returned to the classical department, it had been an hour, and the Chitanda trio was talking about the quirks of famous writers

"Huh? Does the principal also write books? Chitanda was surprised when he heard this

"I heard that the principal has been an Internet writer for a while," Fukube Rishi heard the rumor out of nowhere, "and it's quite famous, although no one knows what is roughly written."

"Speaking of which, where did you find out?" After sitting down, Origi Bongaro restarted the energy-saving mode "Library?" ”

"Please Yuki Nagato hacked into the school's terminal, and my online account is still blocked by the school's Internet network"

"Oriki Buntaro has nothing to say, but strictly speaking, this can be regarded as a literary solution to the incident, right? After all, Yuki Nagato was indeed the president of the Ministry of Literature before he was forcibly occupied

(But the book should be a big stain on her life, right?) The reason for this is that he once glanced at the first page of the book when he tore it to Enko Amano, because it was customary for him to rearrange the words in his mind at that time, and when there were ten lines on the page, the nouns in each line could be connected to arrive at the signature she left on the book

——— cute girl, I'll wipe it up, if I let her know about it, I'll definitely die at the school gate, right? Was she still a girl? She's seventeen years and hundreds of months old now?!
