Chapter 17: So electronic access is a good civilization

When she first became a knight of the guard, Hillman arranged a room for her on the top floor of the castle. This not only makes it easier for Chu to protect her safety, but also for her to give instructions to Chu when needed.

It's also very helpless to say, although she is a knight at first, but most of the time she is more like a butler, since she came to the top of the castle, most of Hillman's chores have been handed over to her.

Apparently, Hillman prefers to trust Hatsu rather than a servant, but this trust sometimes makes Hatsu unsure whether he is here to participate in the war, or to tidy up his desk or clean up.

Speaking of war, the turmoil on the continent has not stopped since the fall of Plann, but Reinhardt is extremely peaceful, and Hillman does not seem to have any plans to go out again for the time being, probably to let the army rest for a while.

The war would not benefit from the fatigue of the army, and since Reinhardt had just taken over Plain's land, it would take some time to stabilize the situation.

Without the flames of war, armor, swords, and horses, life seemed to calm down all of a sudden.

Hillman spends most of her time taking care of state affairs, and when she is not working, she likes to sit next to Chu, read a book or have some afternoon refreshments.

Sometimes she would chat with Chu about a few gossips and jokes, but Chu usually couldn't pick up a few words and couldn't laugh.

There aren't many words when two people sit together, but sometimes people don't necessarily need to say that much to communicate.

For Hillman, Chu was someone she could trust, someone who would be quietly by her side, and that was enough.

For her, who had long been accustomed to sitting alone at the highest point of the royal city, this was already too different.

One morning.

Hillman asks Chu to go to the Kingdom Library to borrow a book she wants to read.

The Kingdom Library was built on a modest road, quiet and quiet beside a river that crossed the royal city, with a few fallen leaves on the pavement along the river, and the occasional pedestrian leaning against the railing and gazing at the river.

It may be because of the quietness of this place that the library chose to build here.

In stark contrast to the road, the Kingdom Library is a magnificent building, and it has been measured that it is the third tallest building in the royal city, after the castle and bell tower.

At the same time, it is also the largest library on the mainland, it is like a palace, a temple of books and knowledge.

How many books are in this library? I don't count them, some say there are tens of thousands, others say more.

In short, almost all the books of the entire royal family are here, and they are open to the public.

Anyone can come to the library at any time to borrow any book for free, but this needs to be returned in a timely manner.

You can also choose not to return it if you feel like you've escaped the librarian's eyes.

It's hard to believe that there is only one librarian in this palace-like library, but not a single book has ever been lost.

Because this librarian is one of the three sages of the Reinhardt Kingdom, the scholar - Promante.

At first, I crossed the path by the river and walked into the library of the kingdom.

There wasn't a sound in the entire library, even though it was so loud and there were so many people sitting in it looking down at books.

Somewhat stunned, she looked up at the interior of the building, which was too large by any means, and the first thing she saw was countless bookshelves and countless books.

This made her a little difficult, and even it would take her a while to find the one Hillman wanted in that number of books.

The library is divided into seven floors, with a spiral staircase in the middle that leads upwards to connect the corridors on each floor, and you can even look at the bookshelves on the top of the building.

At the same time as I first walked into the library.

An old man sitting in the library management office reading a book raised his head.

The old man wore a large brown robe, which was very plain, without any patterns or ornaments, just an ordinary robe.

The wide clothes made the old man's figure look a little thin, and he looked at Chu suspiciously, touching his white beard.

The reason why Chu caught his attention was because of the aura on Chu Chu's body, and the aura on Chu was very complicated and dark, mixed with heavy malice.

Usually people with this aura are either the most sinful people, or they are full of resentment and have a twisted heart.

But what is surprising is that he did not see the slightest cold and negative emotions in Chu's eyes, on the contrary, Chu's eyes are cleaner than most ordinary people, but there is silence and confusion in this cleanliness.

The old man never leaves the library, and he hardly participates in any state affairs and activities, otherwise, he would have known Chu.

But now in his eyes, Chu is just a very special person.

······

Just as Chu was still struggling with how to find the book Hillman wanted, a voice sounded beside her.

"Young man, can I help you?"

When she first turned around, she was an old man in a brown robe standing beside her, with a kind smile on his face.

Chu didn't think that the old man could help her in this situation, but he said anyway.

"Excuse me, is there a book called "The Modern Theory of the Four Kingdoms"?"

"Oh?"

The old man's expression was stunned, and he asked with some surprise in his eyes.

"Are you going to read this book?"

He thought that Hatsukai would have many answers, but he didn't expect Hatsukai to want to borrow this book.

No matter how you look at it, I don't look like a person who can read this kind of book at first.

"Nope. Chu shook her head as a matter of course, she rarely reads: "I just borrow books for others." ”

The old man nodded knowingly, smiled again, and raised his hand to speak.

"The Modern Treatise of the Four Kingdoms is in the seventh book of the fifth row of the fifth row of the thirty-sixth bookshelf on the fourth floor. ”

He has been in this library for decades, and it can be said that he remembers the location of every book here.

In the era of "The Modern Theory of the Four Kingdoms", few people are still willing to read this kind of book.

The old man's series of numbers made him a little confused at first, and he looked at the old man blankly and blinked.

Obviously, she didn't expect the old man to be able to give such an accurate answer, and she couldn't understand where the old man's so-called fourth layer No. 36, the fifth row, the sixteenth column, the seventh book was.

The old man looked at Chu's expression, guessed that Chu didn't understand, turned his back to his hand, and said with a smile.

"Do you need me to take you there?"

"That. When he first looked at the library, he put aside his intention to look for it, and replied, "I'm sorry for you." ”
