But there is only one face.

Roddy's eyes widened, and he was about to exclaim only to find that he could only make a slight gurgling sound, as if someone had choked his neck alive.

"Shhhh

The face pouted, then gently pressed against the side of Roddy's face, sniffing him with his nose, not paying any attention to Roddy's frightened expression.

"Ordinary people. ”

The face muttered a sentence and continued:

"The Extraordinary's materials are on the left, the occult books are in the middle, and my desk is on the right. ”

"I suggest you start by reading The Physiognomy and Rank Division of the Extraordinary, it's right on my desk. ”

"You come with me. ”

After the initial shock, Roddy quickly calmed down, and this young lady with a beautiful human face should be the Catherine that Ash said.

In fact, Miss Catherine just appeared in a way that was a little abrupt and a little scary, but the illusory human face and the weird short control of my body should be a very powerful extraordinary, I don't know what the deity looks like, it should be very beautiful!

Roddy kept up with the face while chattering in his heart, and observed the library curiously by the way.

In the dim light, you can still see the neatly arranged books on the shelves, they are spotless, and you can see obvious friction marks on the shelves.

It seems that Miss Catherine is very fond of this place, and despite the way Miss Catherine appears, Roddy finds himself quite fond of Miss Catherine.

"You may be seated. ”

Roddy looked at the empty desk and was slightly stunned, thinking that Catherine's deity should be sitting here, could Miss Catherine really just a human face?

Catherine urged again, and Roddy quickly put aside the thoughts in his head and sat down.

The desk is very tidy.

Roddy only had time to pop into the thought before his body moved uncontrollably.

Skillfully open the drawer and take out a delicate quill, then a seal, white paper.

"1300 - January - 21. ”

"I borrowed the books "The Physiognomy and Rank Division of the Extraordinary" and "Basic Occultism", and received a set of work clothes. ”

"It cost three gold pounds. ”

Roddy looked at the 'Three Golden Pounds' in horror, and what terrified him even more was that the pen was still writing.

"Subsequent charges are calculated on a monthly basis. ”

"Each book is charged a monthly fee of one gold pound, and if it is lost, according to Guardian Team 32, it is necessary to pay ten times the price (including borrowing money and rent), and there is no rental fee for the overalls except for the repair fee, but the cost is increased according to the degree of damage, and the cost is subject to Ms. Catherine's estimate. ”

"Applicant: Roddy. ”

And that's not all, Roddy watched as his thumb dipped in ink and pressed a bet on the right side of his signature.

"Is it okay if I don't lend it?"

Roddy found herself able to speak, but Miss Catherine just stared at Roddy and said nothing, as if you were going to try it.

"But why is it so expensive? ”

"I mean, it costs a pound to get your overalls?"

Catherine's delicate, illusory little face shook.

"No, I don't. ”

So borrowing a book costs a little bit of hardware!?a whole week's and a half's salary!?shouldn't it be free!

Presumably guessing Roddy's thoughts, Miss Catherine explained slowly:

"The Physiognomy and Rank Division of the Extraordinary" is 0 gold pounds, "Basic Occult" is 0 gold pounds, and the work clothes are 2 gold pounds. ”

Roddy frowned, suspecting he had misheard.

"Didn't you say that overalls are free?"

Catherine felt that Roddy's brain was not very useful, and squinted at him for a long time before sighing.

"You don't need one gold pound, you need two gold pounds. ”

Roddy opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a while, but he had to pay three gold pounds before he started to get paid, which is a whole three gold pounds! Only three gold pounds can be achieved after working in the newspaper for three weeks without eating or drinking!

Crucially, he was only a temporary worker, and the newspaper did not pay him at all.

"I... I didn't bring any money. ”

Catherine's good-looking brows furrowed slightly, her delicate little mouth pursed out because of anger, and she said in a fierce tone:

"Salary deduction, poor ghost!"

Roddy felt that he was simply stupid, why would he have a crush on an illusory human face that didn't even have a body.

He took a deep breath, slowly got up, and finally got the Basic Occult and the so-called overalls—a standard police officer's uniform, under Catherine's guidance.

Catherine added before leaving.

"Don't come in next time you don't have money. ”

Roddy gritted his teeth and secretly resolved in his heart that in the future, he must carry a basket of gold pounds on his back to blind this vicious young lady with a human face.

After leaving the library, Roddy found that Ash was still waiting for him, and when Roddy appeared, Ash was very worried and came up to ask some inconsistencies questions.

Roddy was a little depressed.

"Why didn't you tell me that I had to pay for it myself to borrow books, and it was so expensive!"

Ash was slightly stunned and asked uncertainly:

"How much did Miss Catherine ask you for your borrowing fee?"

"Ten gold pounds? or fifteen gold pounds?"

Seeing that Roddy had a calm face and did not speak, Ash exclaimed:

"Oh my God, is it twenty pounds!?"

"I only paid eight gold pounds!"

"Did you also borrow "The Physiognomy and Classification of the Extraordinary", "Basic Occultism" and receive a set of overalls?"

Roddy finally realizes why Ash is reluctant to enter the library, it seems that his experience is not unique, and compared to Ash, three gold pounds is already very cheap.

Roddy digressed the subject with interest, thinking that although Ash was a talker, he wouldn't hit him with three gold pounds because of it.

"Officer Bob, no, Captain Bob has already put me in a job, so I'm sorry, I need to leave. ”

Ash looked a little disappointed, expressed regret and encouragement, and personally sent Roddy into the elevator, and enthusiastically reached into the elevator to press the switch for Roddy.

"I wish you all the best in your work! I come and see it often when you have time! I am here in my free time!"

Luo Di maintained a polite smile and waved his hand, but said in his heart: Don't worry, I will definitely not come if I can.

When he returned to the kitchen, he didn't see the waiter, and he didn't need to press any mechanism, the wall slowly closed by itself, and Roddy tightened the bag in his arms as if holding a bag of gold pounds.

The bartender didn't say anything when he left, so Roddy didn't plan to say goodbye, and he was relieved when he stood on the street again, and returned home at a trotting speed after looking in the right direction.

Roddy was one hundred and twenty interested in the two books he had borrowed, but he was now more concerned with something else, clues about the murder, the old newspaper that Captain Bob mentioned.

Roddy quickly lit the kerosene lamp, and soon found the old newspaper, which was densely covered with reports on both sides of the front and back, and in some places it was unreadable because of the stains.

"Is this it..."

Roddy sat down to himself and looked at the newspaper carefully.
