Chapter 15: The Library

Heading north along the dormitory, in a vast area shaded by greenery, Ron saw his formal place of work, which looked tall at a glance, hundreds of stone steps propped up a spherical building, and on both sides of the stone steps were very stylish wooden corridors built on the water, and the hanging branches above the corridor swayed in the breeze, and occasionally a couple of men and women could be seen walking hand in hand next to the corridor, talking and laughing, very romantic. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Ron's gaze quickly shifted to the spherical building, and he saw a number of students hurrying to the building with books or backpacks on their backs, and then disappear after a ripple.

Climbing up the stairs, the spherical building shows its whole picture, the glittering silver bracket is its entire body, and the transparent glass is on it, and the glass can clearly see many people sitting quietly in it, or looking at the book with full attention, or writing desperately with a brush, there are few people walking around, and there is no one talking to each other. He nodded at the situation, and then he stepped forward, as if he was blocked by something.

"Please show your student ID. The sudden voice startled Ron, and almost subconsciously blocked his left wrist in front of him, dripping. A burst of light enveloped Ron.

"Welcome, student Ron, please select the information and books you want to inquire, follow the instructions to enter the specified place to read, please go to the service desk to borrow, if you have any questions, please ask the management through the student card, friendly reminder, anyone who makes a loud noise in the library, and brings out the books without permission, will bear the consequences. ”

When the light cleared, Ron stumbled to the library. As far as the eye can see, the whole spherical space is full of books, the tall bookshelves fill the whole space, the tables and chairs for people to read and write are interspersed in an orderly manner, and occasionally you can see a lot of long escalators placed next to the bookshelves, surrounded by the bookshelf in the center, next to a pile of books is placed a label, on which the words "service desk" are written.

Ron walked to the front of the service desk, and in the middle of a pile of books on its right, he found a recruitment information for a librarian, on which in addition to the basic introduction, also wrote the reason for the recruitment, making Ron scan the entire space, and the corners of his clothes on his shoulders collapsed:

"To recruit a librarian, in addition to having a sense of responsibility, you also need to have a good spirit of hardship and hard work. Recently, there have been some strange things in the library, originally the whole library only needs to be cleaned properly, but the dust cleaning system is not working, and the manual cleaning of the library accumulates dust again the next morning. Therefore, the current library is a heavy cleaning task, for the cleanliness of the library, we are looking for a librarian with a probationary period of three days, and the treatment is preferential. ”

Sure enough, the director of discipline is not a person who is easy to talk to, and when he was still lamenting that the things in the mouth of the troubadour were all exaggerated and distorted the facts, after seeing this information, the whole person was tragic.

After he smirked, a girl with a duster and an apron stepped out of the shadows.

"Do you need to borrow books or do you need any help?"

"Well, me, I'm a librarian. Here's my message and the Director of Discipline has knocked out the letter of appointment. He put the message of the watch in front of her, and the apron girl looked at the boy in front of her suspiciously, the distrust and confusion in her eyes were undisguised on her face, and Ron smiled awkwardly, hoping that the other party could give her an answer after reading the message left by the director of discipline.

"Ron, that transfer student!" The apron girl waved her duster, and a lot of dust fell in front of the other party's eyes, Ron couldn't help covering her mouth and nose, as if realizing that her movements were a little bad, she smiled shyly, and with a flick of her five fingers, she caged the dust in the air aside, "Well, if you're willing to do it, let's get to work." The trial period is 3 days. ”

Ron watched the apron girl give the appointment so quickly, and became a little curious, who was this girl?

"The location of the water and the mop has been passed on to your watch, as a reminder, no magic can be used here, except for the official librarian, and the task of cleaning must be done manually. After the students leave, let's get to work. Ends before 6 o'clock. The library is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and we clean before 9 a.m., clean after 4 p.m., and finish before 6 p.m. No one is allowed to enter the library after 6 o'clock. This is the rule of the Green Shade Academy. ”

At the end of the sentence, the apron girl's voice was a little low, giving Ron goosebumps all over his body, and after silently jotting down his working hours, he left the desk and began to look through the books he needed.

The time of the Brilliant Continent is calculated in 24 hours, and the clock hanging in the room has a very attractive structure, with a circular compass marked with numbers, and a pole made of special material is erected in the middle, and the shadow of the pole does not change with the brightness and darkness of the light, but rolls on the compass by itself, so as to judge the current time.

The shadow on the clock rolled past 4 o'clock, and a female voice came from the hall:

"Dear students, the opening hours of the library have passed, please put the books back in their original places, leave the venue in an orderly manner, and do not take the books out of the library without permission. After 5 minutes, if there are still people left in the library, turn on the clean mode. ”

"Ron, this is for you. The apron girl didn't know when she came behind him and threw a seal to him, "The librarian's temporary seal, which won't be kicked out of the library, and at the same time can control some of the magic guides in the library." ”

Ron had just put away the stamps when a few guys not far away, who were still reading, screamed and were ejected. The corners of his mouth twitched, secretly thinking that this library was really unkind, the other party was obviously working so hard, but he was still swept out.

"Don't mind, there are a lot of nerds who die reading, but magicians are not scholars, they don't need to memorize, and there are always many people who are thrown out of the library before exams. The apron girl began to sweep the nearby bookshelves, "It's easier at night, just throw the books they put on the table into the storage box, the storage box will be re-put according to the title, except for the book whose title is a little defaced and you need to climb up the bookshelf by yourself, you don't need to worry about anything else." The garbage on the ground can be cleaned up with a magic dust collector. Finally, mop the ground well. ”

After learning how to clean, Ron ran up and down and began to clean, at first a little inexplicably dizzy, after being busy for a while, it got much better, the apron girl watched Ron's behavior, nodded, and sorted out some documents in front of the service desk.

I don't know how long it was, Ron wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the library he had cleaned himself, and a sense of accomplishment arose. A bottle of water was handed to him, and he thanked him, and when he saw the apron girl's also sweaty face, he laughed softly.

"With such a big library, you cleaned it by yourself before?"

"There were still a lot of people before, librarian is a very easy job, and it's easy to earn a few credits, but since the cleaning system broke down, those people have left in turn, and I'm the only one left here. "I haven't introduced myself yet, but my name is Lilisa, and I'm a second-year student." It's an elf. She straightened her bangs, allowing Ron to see the inscription she had carved on her foreheadβ€”a magic circuit in the shape of a leaf.

"Elves, aren't the troubadours all creatures with pointed ears?" Ron looked at Lilisa in front of him, and found nothing matching the troubadour's description.

"Man has always been a creature who loves fantasy. Lilisa pursed her lips, "For thousands of years, biographical novels have made your human impression of elves deeply rooted in people's hearts, and it is normal to have such prejudices. Natural selection, survival of the fittest, and the final evolution of intelligent creatures will always change to human beings. Therefore, with the exception of ignorant orcs, in non-combat situations, intelligent beings all appear as human beings. Her words couldn't help but remind Ron of the SR senior when he first entered the dormitory, indeed as she said, human posture is a common state, which made him shudder at the same time, thinking that the entire academy is actually a hodgepodge of races, thinking about it has a gagging urge, as if you are making love with the object of your heart, and suddenly the other party has a big change in form, looking at the other party's appearance, do you continue, or continue?!

Looking at Ron's performance, Lilisa naturally guessed the other party's thoughts, and without explaining anything, she greeted him and said:

"It's off. Come out. It's almost 6 o'clock. ”

"Oh!" Ron, who came to his senses, saw that the time was indeed almost 6 o'clock, hurriedly followed the other party's pace, and walked outside, "Senior sister, why can't you stay in the library after 6 o'clock in the afternoon?"

Lilisa's footsteps paused, turned her head, her expression was a little scary against the light under her chin, and she slowly spoke:

"Ron, do you know the weird talk about the campus of Greenshade Academy?"
