Connor hadn't slept well for days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is normal for the staff of the Holy See to be busy, but the Holy See itself is crowded, and it is generally possible to sneak a rest, but it will not be particularly tired, at least it will not affect the basic sleep. From the perspective of the working environment, the Holy See is definitely the best place in the world to work in the world, although the remuneration may not be higher than other places, but it has good benefits and various guarantees, and it feels a bit of an insider.

As a result, Connor rarely encountered the level of being too busy to sleep well, and in his memory, this was the first time that this situation had occurred since he came to the Holy City. Because his job content is to manage some departments of the Holy See, he is almost always busy, and all he has in his hands is the library and archives, and it is not a material that will be mobilized at any time, so it should belong to the kind of work that collects money leisurely.

That's right, it was like this, and until he found out that he had lost something in his inventory, his work life was indeed on a fairly leisurely and stable track, and nothing more would happen at all.

So the management type of work is like this, when there is nothing to do, it is very comfortable to follow the steps, once something happens, everything will be messed up, and even losing your job is a trivial matter, and if you are unlucky, you can get into trouble for yourself. Connor had been praying to the gods in his heart for the past few days, hoping that all that had been lost after the inventory was a few books that were not particularly important, and that the rest of the missing things were delusions caused by his own mental allergies.

But it's easier said than done in one go......

The Holy See Library itself is semi-open, and this thing occupies a large building in the Holy See, and basically people who can freely enter and leave the Holy City have the right to enter the library at will. In this way, there will be no particularly important things in the place where everyone can directly touch, so a little lack of some is not a particularly big problem, it is nothing more than that Connor's prize money this month is probably gone.

If nothing else is missing, then a mere bonus is not a problem at all, and Connor would even be willing to trade his entire salary for the possibility of just missing a few books in the library. Compared to other things that seem to be lost, I am afraid that even the Holy See itself will not bother to take care of a few books.

If things really go as I thought, and the archives and collections are also stolen, then the problem is probably not at all...... The contents can kill Connor casually, and at the same time, it can also involve a series of other people related to his position, and in the end, how he will die depends on whether the thief does anything with the stolen things.

But when exactly was it stolen and when was it stolen!

Connor didn't have any eyebrows at all, although he worked leisurely, but he was also quite conscientious, he still didn't have the mentality of neglecting his duties in the face of the various collections of the Holy See, and occasionally he was lazy and dared to be a little negligent in the library. The Archives and Collections had never been careless, and he didn't dare to be careless with the things in these two places even if he had half his life. But even then, I still lost something.

In the past few days, in addition to arranging for his subordinates to check, he has also repeatedly checked many times in two places, but in any case, all the security protection systems have not been passive, and everything that should have played a role has not worked, and he doesn't know when it was stolen, let alone what method the other party used, what kind of person it is, and the most important thing is that there is no place to check it if you want to track it down now.

The gods are above, ask for a clear way......

I heard that the Holy See is also busy with the coronation ceremony on Scalloa's side these days, and the important event that is already very tossed is even more troublesome because of the knowledge that someone is going to launch an attack, and it is estimated that he will not notice his head for a while, and when the coronation ceremony is over, I am afraid that he will have to go back and investigate himself immediately. In any case, there is something to be gained before the coronation is over...... Even if the thing can't be recovered, at least you have to be able to come up with a slightly more acceptable statement, so that you don't know anything about it when you ask about it, and I am afraid that I can't accept it.

But tomorrow is the coronation!

Connor was still in his room on the night before the coronation with a candle to check the list of collections, and it was not easy to manually compare the huge number of records from different periods, he had been in this room all day, but until now there was nothing particularly worth mentioning, although the missing things were checked and found a few, but they were either found again after a short time, or they were of no value in themselves.

It would be nice to be able to rule out the possibility of losing something important in this way. Connor felt that he was now feeling like he had to force his way into a forest that might be full of traps, and that he had to walk through the entire forest, and if there was trouble, there was no way to dodge, and all he could hope for was that there were no particularly dangerous traps in it.

The temperature in the room itself is not high, and the collection hall itself is very low in order to keep the storage temperature, and the collection management room is about the same as the museum, and it is such a shady room with little air circulation, and Connor is still wiping the fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Connor, who was still concentrating on the various records list at night, was startled by the sudden knock on the door. A few simple taps scared Connor's hands and nearly tore the list in half.

"Come in, I'm inside." Connor quickly replied, but fortunately his voice didn't tremble, otherwise it would be a shame.

The brass doorknob was gently turned from the outside, the streamlined handle trembled for a moment, and then rotated down ninety degrees to the ground, and the mahogany door of the management room was unlocked, and it was slowly pushed open from the outside, and the more well-ventilated main hall of the collection poured a much fresher air into the room of the management room through the door, and at the same time, it was a colleague that Connor was familiar with.

"The news from the Archives came, I knew you would still be here, did you eat dinner?" Ethan entered the room, turned and closed the door again, he seemed to be slightly more physically fit than Connor, and he didn't look as decadent as Connor, but the tiredness was not as severe as Connor's, but it was still noticeable.

This news was undoubtedly much more important to Connor than any dinner, and his whole body was shocked, the list in his hand was subconsciously slapped on the table, and half of his body straightened: "The liquidation of the Archive is over?" The result? ”

It feels like you're listening to your own life and death verdict, and then you'll see what happens to the news.

"Hmm...... Things are more than you think...... It's a little more complicated. Ethan sat down, frowned and thought about how to use words to express the meaning without irritating Connor, he knew that Connor's current mental state had long been tense to the limit, and it would be good for everyone to minimize the stimulation on him.

"Complicated?" Connor was stunned, he originally thought that the last description of Ethan's sentence would be an adjective such as optimistic or bad, but he didn't expect it to be such a description, which was really a bit unexpected, and he didn't understand what it was called complicated for a while.

"Okay, anyway, you listen to me first." Ethan rubbed his temples, ready to start things with the simple side: "The History of the Falsifiers, Volume II, Fallock. Eleven books such as Lucien, The Fifth Prayer, and many others were found in most of them, and only two were confirmed missing. ”

These are all things that are not problematic in themselves, and even if they are all lost, they will not cause particularly serious consequences...... belongs to the level that will make Connor lose his salary, maybe he will have to pay some money, at least not let Connor lose a piece of meat.

"The Hypocrite' sculpture is slightly damaged and is being repaired, so there should be no problem."

It's something important, but since it can be repaired, it's easy to say, and it at least gives Connor a little relief and comfort.

"And then there's what has been confirmed missing...... Uh......" Ethan hesitated again and cleared his throat: "About twelve letters preserved in the archival file, the appendix of "The Footsteps of the Stars", the number of pages of parts of the contents of Chapters 3, 6 and 7 of "The Rite of Fate", the starry sky map of volumes 2 and 9 of "Conclusion", the full number of pages of the 13th volume of "The Funeral of the Believers" about the holy relics, and the number of more than 60 pages in volumes 3, 4, 5, 10 and 12 of the "Inheritance" totaling more than 60 pages......"

Connor's face turned completely white.

The result was as bad as his worst assumptions...... No, maybe it was worse than his speculation, he didn't say anything for a long time, he stared at Ethan stunned for a long time, and it took a long time for his eyes to have a focal length, and he opened his mouth stiffly, and asked, "That...... Is there a clue to the theft? ”

His voice was hoarse as if it came from rubbing against dead wood, and it was full of meanings like desperate survival.

"No...... I mean...... There was no chance, and they found a large number of book ashes in the mezzanine of a partition at the same time" Ethan shook his head with difficulty: "Judging from the only remaining fragments, it can basically be confirmed that it is the part of the book that disappeared as mentioned before." ”

Connor sat back in his chair, knowing that this was not much different from pronouncing the death sentence on himself, that with so many records lost in the Archive, and that there was not even a chance to get them back, the Holy See would never let him go.

Connor. Vaqueletol, he thinks his days will probably come to the end of his life after the coronation.

His vision was blurred, and he could only vaguely see the outline of the object by candlelight, and the whole person's soul wanted to leave the body, and Ethan's voice seemed to come from the distant sky: "...... Don't give up, things are going wrong. ”

Maybe it will be handed to the person who fell into the water, the only straw that saves life. (To be continued.) )
