✿BGM：Foxtail-Grass Studio-アサガオ

-

A girl's doll, almost life-size, about 140 centimeters tall, wears a luxurious velvet dress decorated with black velvet and lace lace. For some reason, a beautiful long hair was not tied up, and it was draped over the body like a velvet turban, and naturally fell at the feet of the small leather shoes.

The girl's blue eyes scanned the books lined up on the floor. Books arranged radially around her head, ranging from ancient history to the latest technology, mechanics, spells, and alchemy; From English to French, Latin and Chinese, books are available in a variety of languages.

Her slightly lowered side, her cold, clear expression is reminiscent of delicate porcelain. The clear sapphire blue eyes of neither adults nor children are as elusive as dreams at dawn.

Amon approached curiously, reached out and pinched the puppet's perfect cheek, which was completely devoid of expression and emotion, and exclaimed.

"Huh...... It feels really good, just like a real person......"

Pinching and pinching, Ameng was suddenly stunned, and the movements of his hands stopped.

(Is it a delusion?) How do I feel the doll's eyes blinking? ）

She withdrew her hand and rubbed her eyes, looked at it again, and couldn't help but take a few steps back in horror.

It's really blinking.

On the girl's terrifyingly small face, a pair of cold eyes flashed that made people gasp, and the extremely cold blue eyes were blinking.

The puppet suddenly—no, it was the girl who spoke.

"It's not enough that stupid guy was hurt by me, and I'm planning to let someone else come here and repeat the same mistakes? New here, I'll do whatever you want, but at least don't get in my way, get out of the way. Otherwise, you'll end up like her. ”

The girl slowly shut up.

"People...... Person...... Dolls can actually talk!? Sisi ducked behind Ameng and poked her head out, pointing at the strange girl's little hand trembling slightly.

“…… It's noisy! The brown-haired girl, who had no difficulty browsing the books spread out on the floor, came back to her senses and raised her head in an instant.

What caught Ameng's eye was a book flying towards her at high speed along a parabola. Seeing that the book was about to hit her face, she hurriedly grabbed the book and sighed in shock.

(It's dangerous.) ）

"Hey, it's dangerous for you to do this!" Maggie sat on Ameng's shoulder and shouted to the girl in dissatisfaction.

Seeing that the girl had raised another book in her hand and was about to smash it, Amon shook her head helplessly, walked over to the girl and sat down.

"I'm Gina Senamon, can you tell me your name? Why would a girl be here alone? ”

The brown-haired girl raised her chin slightly: "My name is Yue Yingluo." Why you are alone here, shouldn't it be clear to you. ”

Amon was angry when she saw her arrogance peculiar to aristocrats.

(I say...... I've only met you for the first time, so how can I know this kind of thing...... ）

Seeing that Ameng was silent, Yingluo's gaze returned to the book.

She asked, flipping through the book page by page.

"What are you looking for from me?"

Without giving Ameng time to answer, Yue Yingluo continued to speak in a somewhat childish voice.

"What's the point of looking for me, it's really a guy who can't suffer enough. Or do you like to climb stairs? ”

“…… When you think about it, you know it's impossible. I didn't come to this gloomy library by climbing the stairs, and I didn't come to find someone I didn't know. ”

"Oh? Isn't it looking for me? That's fine, you're forced to clean the library. ”

"No, not forced, just accidentally breaking the school rules...... Wait, Moonlight,"

Ameng, who was getting up to leave the greenhouse, sat down again, staring at Yue Yingluo, who had buried her head in the stack of books.

"How do you know? Could it be that you're peeking? ”

"Nope."

"Why is that?"

"There's nothing why. It doesn't hurt to tell you. ”

Yue Yingluo read the book, looking lazy, completely ignoring Ameng, who was anxiously waiting for the next explanation, and continued leisurely as if she was singing.

"You're wearing a uniform with the Holy Night School crest, and the bow of the uniform hasn't been tied yet."

“…… That's really sorry. ”

"And then there's dust on the collar of your uniform, and that dust smells of moldy paper. So I'm assuming you're cleaning the library. ”

"But, you say, it was forced...... Couldn't it be that I volunteered on my own? ……”

"You didn't walk very reluctantly when you went upstairs, but you came to this greenhouse out of pure curiosity."

"Huh? Have it? ”

(Didn't I walk reluctantly when I went upstairs?) Obviously, she went upstairs as usual, and she didn't procrastinate, how could this girl hear that she was reluctant? ）

Yue Yingluo said coldly and disdainfully.

The rebuttal of what I said was also full of frustration that I don't usually have. There is no denying that there is only one reason why a human female middle school student does the above kind of thing - being late. Although you have lost your identity, you are in a state of depression because you have been punished by the teacher. Volunteers are reluctant to go to the library to clean up, so you must be violating school discipline. Moreover, the bow of the uniform should only be in the morning, and only students who get up late and have no time to check their whole body will forget to tie the bow. ”

"Uh, that, Yue Yingluo...... Can you be mindful of the wording? Frustrated...... It's really ...... to say that you have lost your identity."

Aemon hugged her knees and stared at the side of Yue Yingluo's face with a flushed face.

"You really guess...... I'm convinced of you......"

For a while, Yue Yingluo didn't answer, just lowered her head and read the book. But Amon's words seemed to finally reach her mind, and she nodded "oh" and said no more.

"By the way, Yue Yingluo, you read so many books every day, right?"

Amon said undeterred.

Yue Yingluo didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

"Are you going to read all the books in this library?"

Although it was just a joke, Yue Yingluo raised her head, and naturally pointed to the bottom through the handrail of the stairs and said, "This floor is full of forbidden books that are jerky and difficult for you humans to read...... Hey? Hina Sen, your face is not right, your eyes are about to pop out. What's wrong? ”

"Nothing...... Just scared. I'll go down and take a look. ”

Aemon walked down the stairs as lightly as she could, and she took a deep breath to soothe her speeding heartbeat. Cold sweat was already breaking out on her back.

("You Humans"?) Could it be that Yue Yingluo is really the fairy ...... of the legendary library? I just asked her so many questions, it can't really be like the sweethearts say, the soul is eaten, right?! In that case, it is better to run away quickly...... ）

"Ah...... If you seem to notice it, then this guy is not stupid...... At least not as stupid as Suzuki Bauhinia. Do you really think ......, though? Can you escape? ”

Looking at Ameng, who had already reached the next level, the corners of Yue Yingluo's mouth were slightly hooked, and her cold smile was intertwined with a low self-talk, like Manzhu Sawa in the depths of hell, blooming demonically.
