Time manager
Chapter 57 Forum
In the afternoon, Shi Jing and the others didn't move around much, just went fishing, watered vegetables, and chatted with Shi's father and Shi's mother.Originally, the rhythm of the library was slow, but now they seem to have experienced the life of old people in advance.Only Ai Qiu is still out of place, either holding a computer to type, or answering various calls.
Lian Ping collapsed on the recliner and watched her busy beside him, and sighed: "Why does Ai Qiu feel the same when she is on vacation or not?"
Ai Qiu said while typing: "If you have a whip behind you, you will run like me, and you won't be able to stop."
"Urgent..." Lian Ping was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, and said dejectedly, "I have it too, but I still can't run."
Ai Qiu disdainfully said: "What is there to remind you in your library?"
"Teacher Lian Ping doesn't need a whip, just throw the work to him. After all, he is a tool man." Wang Xu said while putting on a mask.
"..."
Now not only Lian Ping, but everyone else was silent.
"Teacher Wang Xu, don't say such heart-wrenching words." Lian Ping said dissatisfied.
"I've read the files of the personnel department. The reason why the curator hired you is clearly written." Wang Xu took off the cucumber slices from his face, not joking at all.
"At the beginning, I thought you came in because of Sister Tian Lu's relationship, so I checked it out, but it turned out that it was because you were a tool person." Her tone was understated, but it sounded even more contemptuous.
Shi Jing had never seen such an aggressive side of Wang Xu, nor had he seen Lian Ping so angry that he exploded.
The guy jumped up and clenched his fists, but didn't move, but blushed and couldn't speak.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Mama Shi quickly went into the house and brought out a plate of watermelon, saying: "Come here to not talk about work, eat melons and melons."
"Who is not a tool." Only Ai Qiu said something, especially deeply touched: "Your curator also said that Li is always a tool."
She remembered clearly that Li Dai was really furious at that time. He was so kind to get resources for the library, but he was teased face to face. Even if it was a joke, he couldn't help but show his true nature and jumped up.
"Oh." After hearing about Dai Li's experience, Lian Ping probably felt that Bi Mier had been compared to him—at least the curator never called him a tool man to his face, so he felt no burden at all, and collapsed again.
"Then be a tool man, it's pretty good, it means I'm still useful."
Shi Jing felt that Wang Xu was a bit strange today, and had been staring at Lian Ping intentionally or unintentionally, and what he said just now seemed to be testing something.
So on the pretext of going to the garden to pick vegetables for dinner, Shi Jing called her over and asked, "Why did Teacher Wang say that?"
"There's something wrong with Lian Ping," Wang Xu said.
Shi Jing thought that she was suspicious of Lian Ping's system again, but she said softly, "Lian Ping is sick, Teacher Shi doesn't know?"
"..." Shi Jing didn't know!
"Tian Lu told me that Lian Ping once went into the water to save people when he was in college, and was swept away by the whirlpool. He was out of breath after being rescued, but who knew that he woke up suddenly the next day. It's just that the root cause of the disease may have fallen later, and he would fall into a coma for a few days from time to time. He doesn't wake up, so when he's not energetic, you have to watch carefully. I think he doesn't seem to have any strength today, and I'm a little worried, so I stimulate him." Wang Xu said after a moment of deliberation.
Although the curator asked her to observe Lian Ping's system, what she said was true.
Shi Jing believed it.
And he was sure that the reason why Lian Ping was able to wake up was probably because he accepted the photosphere system at that time.If the ball of light disappeared... He was a little afraid to think about it.
Speaking of which, now that Lian Ping is not in good spirits, does it mean that his system power is weakening?
Under the grape shed, Lian Ping fell asleep on the recliner in a daze, and when he woke up, he was still limp as before, and he couldn't help but sadly said to the system: "Tongtong, I don't feel like I have any energy today."
The system said indifferently: "Host, you have been lazy recently! The points are not enough to redeem blue."
Lian Ping said weakly, "Why, haven't I always been commissioned?"
"The rewards for low-level tasks are different from those for high-level tasks. You, the host, have been making small fuss recently, while high-level tasks are always paddling."
"Did I take any high-level tasks?" Lian Ping sat up mentally.
"You forgot again! Help Shi Jing find the owner of the black cat."
"Oh." Lian Ping went back paralyzed again, "I don't think Teacher Shi really needs my help. I really only have to paddle when I'm by his side. And... I'm allergic to cats!"
"You didn't complain about allergies when you pet the cat." The system complained, and said earnestly: "Host, remind me, my current ability can't keep you alive for long. If you don't do some efficient tasks, I can't Upgrade in time, and we will be finished together by then."
Then he nagged: "I think you should ask Shi Jing about time management and learn how to spend time on key points instead of taking all tasks. Although my setting is that you must passively accept tasks when you encounter them, but You can... take advantage of the loopholes, understand? Usually, be more careful, avoid the entrustment of small fish and shrimp, and do high-level tasks."
"Okay, okay, I get it." Lian Ping chattered to himself, but his head exploded when he heard others chattering, and couldn't help muttering: "It's you who talk about missions all day long, I just dreamed that someone posted a mission. "
"What dream, what mission? Why don't I know." The system asked strangely.The system is bound to the spirit of the host, and a guy like Lian Ping who never defends himself can't hide his dreams from it.
"It seems to be a forum, where someone posted a task." Lian Ping tried to recall, "I saw someone looking for a hacker to attack a small world, someone looking for a pen that can draw real objects, someone looking for a bookmark that won't burn out, or something. Anyone looking for any door is a strange task."
The system listened to his list in silence, and it took a long time to recover and asked, "What's the name of that forum?"
"It seems to be called... the domain of the gods?"
"..." The system fell silent again.
"Did you take it?"
"No." Lian Ping patted his head and said, "Can I also accept the mission in my dream? I think the reward points are very high."
"can."
"Really?" Lian Ping was dubious, "But why do I feel that your tone sounds..."
"But as your task guidance system, I don't recommend you accept it." The system said coldly, "Otherwise you will die ugly."
"..." Lian Ping's expression died for a moment, and he said angrily, "Then tell me you can pick it up!"
"I want to see your host's choice."
"Next time, just tell me how to choose, don't beat around the bush." Lian Ping yawned, and asked again: "By the way, can I tell Teacher Shi about this dream?"
"Okay, if you want to hurt him, just say so." The system said bluntly.
"Of course I don't want to harm him! But... I saw someone offering a reward for a notebook, and the description seems to be similar to Teacher Shi's." Lian Ping said hesitantly.
……
When Shi Jing came back with the vegetables, he felt that Lian Ping's eyes were strange, so he couldn't help but ask, "What, did I drop something?"
Lian Ping almost shouted out "How do you know I want to say this", and said bitterly: "Not yet."
Shi Jing: "Temporarily?"
"Uh... just to remind you, you didn't lose that notebook, did you?" Lian Ping really wanted to tell him, but he was afraid that what the system said was true, so he had to shut up quickly .
"No." Shi Jing observed his timeline and light sphere, and suddenly said: "How about, Teacher Lian Ping, please do me a favor and watch it for me. If anyone finds out about it, please tell me."
Lian Ping's ball of light really brightened up.
"Shi Jing issued a guardian request, will the host accept it?" After the system mechanically reported, it hurriedly urged: "Hurry up!"
Lian Ping: "Okay, okay!"
Then he quietly asked: "Then can I tell him about the forum?"
"No." The system warned, "That forum is very dangerous. The host can only find out who posted the task, and then tell Shi Jing who it is. You must not let him access the forum by himself."
"Is it as dangerous as you said? Isn't it all right if I read the forum?" Lian Ping was very puzzled.
"Host, don't forget." The system said seriously, "You are the one who owns the system."
Lian Ping understood after thinking about it, and his face changed: "You mean, the people on that forum..."
"They are all system holders." The system sighed, "In short, the host remembers to wait and see what happens, don't register as a member, and don't disclose any information about yourself. The system exchange forum belongs to the spiritual field, and it won't be like a real online forum. To identify the IP, as long as you don't say the wrong thing, no one will recognize you in reality."
"Oh." Lian Ping wiped his cold sweat.
Even colder, the system reminded: "There are two people beside you who have questlines, so the host must not disclose any private information, including food and hobbies, when inquiring on the forum, understand?"
Lian Ping found out that Ai Qiu and Shi Ma also had systems, and he was taken aback. He couldn't help worrying: "Are there so many systems in the world? All of you... It's not aliens who are planning to invade our earth, come first Corrode the spirit."
"What are you thinking? There weren't that many." The system said helplessly, "The internal strife at the headquarters spread to this side, and the balance of the situation was broken. Some systems followed suit and changed the quest line without authorization, so not only humans are in danger, Our system itself is not secure."
Lian Ping said thoughtfully, "But Ai Qiu and Aunt Shi's system doesn't look like a dangerous system."
One is Shi Jing's mother, and the other is the female assistant of the president who seems to admire Shi Jing very much.In Lian Ping's logic, people Shi Jing trusts and people who are willing to invite to his home are not dangerous people.
So he quickly relaxed, ate the snacks made by Shima with peace of mind, and played Dou Dizhu on Ai Qiu's computer.
And Shi Jing really doesn't feel bad for Ai Qiu.When he returned the book, Ai Qiu said, "You finished it so soon?"
Shi Jing didn't think she would do him any harm if he generously lent him a book that was so important to her.
At this time, in Ai Qiu's mind, the system is also persuading: "Host, you borrow it so casually, what if you lose it?"
Ai Qiu said indifferently: "Don't worry, he is a librarian, if he picks it up and sends it back once, he can send it back a second time."
Shi Jing really reminded her: "I haven't finished reading, just read the general talk, you put it away, don't lose it again."
After all, it is a book in the library. Even if there is no such thing as a system, it will be very troublesome to lose it.
Ai Qiu listened to his words and put it away, and began to close his eyes and rest.Not long after, a webpage appeared in front of her eyes. She dipped into it and saw a new pinned post that was particularly eye-catching:
#Suspected manager haunted, pay attention around the library! ! ! #
She walked over curiously, but got a reminder that "only registered members can view it", so she had to browse other posts.
She has discovered this forum called <God’s Realm for a while. The people in the forum seem to have accepted the system tasks like her. Those who want to communicate with each other in the same city. >
For a long time, the forum was full of old posts. Recently, many new ones popped up, almost all of which were hidden objects, and a word appeared frequently: manager.
There is also a historical introduction posted by the moderator on Zhiding. The general idea is: In ancient times, the God of Creation created many tools to manage the world. Ordinary people get the tools and become the managers of the world, possessing incredible power.Collect all seven tools and decipher them, and you will become a god, omnipotent.
Ai Qiu: "..."
Is this story the Dragon Ball Otherworld version? !She doesn't know anything else, but... the result of collecting all seven dragon balls, no matter the original game or the derivative games, are all pitfalls!
So Ai Qiu immediately labeled the guy who released the introduction "Master of Fudge", and then looked at the man's vest: the right hand of God.
Hehehe, it really is a magic stick.
On the contrary, some historical grave posts are not bad, with various classifications about the system, skill introductions, how to clear tasks efficiently, how to redeem rewards without cheating, etc.
It's just that there are too few posts on strategies... Ai Qiu sighed and quit the forum, woke up, and met Wang Xu's big round glasses.
She was not used to being too close, so she said, "Teacher Wang Xu, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. Xiao Ai, your skin is good. What skin care products do you use?" Wang Xu said with a smile, but she was strange in her heart. In the glasses just now, Ai Qiu's mission line fluctuated and interfered, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
Sure enough, there is something wrong with the equipment.Wang Xu thought helplessly.
Ai Qiu casually said a few brands to deal with her, and then secretly asked her own system: "System, do you know the manager?"
The system hesitated: "Where did the host know?"
"A forum." Ai Qiu answered briefly, and then asked: "Who is the manager?"
"They are the supervisors of this world. They have always been prejudiced against the existence of the system. It is best not to provoke the host. After all, from a certain point of view, our system is considered a cheat." The system reminded cautiously.
Ai Qiu understood.The game must not be discovered by the official.
"Host, this is not a game..." the system reminded her again.
"Hmm." Ai Qiu looked at the harmonious small farmyard in front of him, the clear blue sky could be seen in the gap above the green shade, and the white clouds drifted leisurely, and said in a trance: "I just think that all this is too unreal. If you have experienced In the last days, I will also wonder if this is a game or a dream..."
"Host rest assured, after completing this mission, you can choose to stay in this world, or go to a new and better world, and you will not return to the last days." The system said distressedly. "What system do you want next? When I return to the headquarters, I will recommend you to them. Farming? Infrastructure? Harem? Or a big winner in life?"
Ai Qiu looked at Shi Jing in the distance, and murmured: "I want to be a librarian..."
system:"……"
……
Shi Jing didn't know that he was being envied by others, so he made a plan for tomorrow and agreed with a few people on the time to return to the city.
Although the little girl said that she would go to the library to look for him, he still wanted to go to the thrift store first to see if he could meet anyone. It would be best to solve things outside of work during off-duty hours.
Shi Jing's time was accurate, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. There was a heavy rain that night, and Shi's mother was woken up in the middle of the night, saying that the shed on the base was broken, and people had to be assembled to repair the shed and drain water, otherwise The investment of the whole village will be in vain.
Shi Jing and the others also went to help.
The old village head was a little hesitant at first, but the situation was urgent and there was a real shortage of people in the middle of the night, so he didn't stop Shi Jing in the end.
"Hour, can the rain be stopped alone?"
【Insufficient permissions.The master now only has single-target static skills, and cannot take the initiative to perform large-scale static. 】
Shi Jing had no choice but to give up, thinking secretly that he had to plan how to earn achievement points when he went back.He has been paying too much attention to the system recently, and has forgotten his self-cultivation.
Fortunately, there are many people and strong strength, and finally rescued in time, and the villagers were relieved.
Wearing a raincoat, Shi Jing quietly left the shed with her head down, fearing that the villagers would recognize her.Unexpectedly, when he was about to return to the city the next day, he was still discovered.
He obviously had dawdled until no one showed up, but a middle-aged man suddenly appeared.
"Isn't this a stone mirror?" the man said.
Shi Jing let out a "hmm", thinking about whether to cast a single-body still if he was scolded for a while.
The man said again: "Did you also go to the fruit and vegetable base to rescue the emergency yesterday? I saw it, but why did you walk so fast, and you disappeared in a blink of an eye."
Shi Jing recalled, the emergency rescue seemed to go smoothly last night?Nothing went wrong, it's not like he's going to blame him for the torrential rain...
"That beautiful boss is your friend."
Shi Jing couldn't figure out what the fellow was thinking, so he could only respond vaguely: "Mmm..."
Ai Qiu didn't say anything bad about him, did he?
"Thank you." The middle-aged man said suddenly.
Shi Jing: "Huh?"
"I'm the person in charge of our village base. Thanks to your help last night and the friends you brought, our base's agricultural production this year has been kept, and we don't have to worry about sales. It's a good start. Of course, it's you She has the most credit for Mom's idea." The middle-aged fellow scratched his head and said naively.
Shi Jing let go of half of his heart.
The man asked again: "Are you still so unlucky now?"
Shi Jing: "..."
He then said mysteriously: "I heard from your mother that you asked for a talisman from an expert, and your luck changed! Hey, my son has been a bit unlucky recently, and he has been bumping into walls everywhere when he is looking for a job. Where did you ask for the talisman? Can't reveal it."
Shi Jing didn't want to talk.But my mother's lie still has to be round.So he took out his pocket casually, found a piece of paper, and handed it over.
The middle-aged man left as if he had found a treasure.
Shi Jing turned around and saw that his mother had filled the trunk with the freshly picked fruits and vegetables from the garden. He didn't want to ask any questions, but looked at the soft ball of light on her body, hugged her and said: "Thank you, mom. Remember to tell me if you have anything to do."
Shi Ma froze for a moment, then smiled and said: "Of course. Your father is a boring gourd. If I don't tell my son, who else will I talk to?"
After Shi Jing left, she turned and went back to the yard, looked at the greenery all over the garden, wiped her eyes, and murmured: "0158, why do I feel that my son seems to know everything."
"He didn't say anything, so let's pretend we don't know. Come on host, Shi Jing's luck is improving, and you can see that he has made friends." The system cheered her up, and said expectantly, "Let's make persistent efforts, what will be planted next?" ?”
"That's right." Shi Ma said happily, "He never had any friends before."
……
Shi Jing didn't know if the people around him were friends, but on the way back to the city, Ai Qiu and Wang Xu had already started chatting about skin care experience and novel book list.And Lian Ping sat in the back seat with him, and soon fell into a daze, paralyzed and sound asleep, completely forgetting his image.
Until the car stopped halfway.
There seems to be a car accident ahead, but it is said that the victims are missing.The car in the accident was deformed and turned over several times. The owner of the car got down but found no one or blood. The traffic police investigated and found no trace. The injured seemed to disappear out of thin air.Can't... that car is driverless?
Although there was no blood, the wreckage of the vehicle was extremely tragic. After seeing the scene of the accident, Ai Qiu drove more seriously, and Wang Xu also wisely stopped talking.
Shi Jing was a little concerned.If he hadn't encountered the time note, he couldn't imagine that people could disappear out of thin air.But now... the person who can disappear in a dangerous situation, if not the ability to possess the light sphere, is the manager.
The tension eased when the three returned to the city safely.
Shi Jing got off the car directly at the thrift store, bid farewell to the three of them, and went to Boss Yang to ask about the little girl.
Unexpectedly, Chen Nian was also in the store. Seeing him coming, he immediately cried out with a sad face: "Mr. Shi, the cat owner does not agree with me adopting a big orange."
Shi Jing had already guessed this result.Even if the little girl agrees, the two cats are tools of the manager, and it is impossible to recognize a new owner at will.
Just as he was about to comfort him, Chen Nian said again: "Mr. Shi, come on, it's up to you! If you adopt it, I will at least have a chance to see it."
Shi Jing didn't have the nerve to say that he didn't intend to adopt, and instead told him, "Don't tell others what you saw in the library that day."
Chen Nian was sighing, but he didn't realize: "What's the matter?"
Shi Jing didn't say anything directly, and pointed to the door of the thrift store.
Chen Nian looked at it in confusion for a while, then remembered, nodded first, and then said: "Then I think it's better to tell Mr. Shi about something, it seems...someone is looking for that door."
Shi Jing: "What??"
"I've been having strange dreams a few days ago." Chen Nian said worriedly, "I always dreamed that I went to a forum, and someone would post a task in that forum, and I took it from there before. Then, yesterday I watched I see, someone posted a post about finding the door."
"What forum?!" Shi Jing asked in surprise.
"A
<On the forum of the Realm of God, that person posted a sketch of the door, I feel...it looks like the one I saw in the library. "Chen Nian said hesitantly.>
Shi Jing is strange.Qin Shi said that those readers who met the door signed a non-disclosure agreement, and it was impossible to spread news on the Internet.
Then why would anyone want to find the door?Could it be the original owner of the door?
"I see, don't tell anyone else about this." Shi Jing said solemnly, "The same is true about the door, don't reply to the posts on the forum, go to the library with me later, and sign a non-disclosure agreement. "
He asked about the situation of the forum again, and couldn't help being shocked.
That is clearly a forum where system holders gather!
"Did you enter in a dream?" Shi Jing asked strangely.He just searched the Internet, but couldn't find any relevant forums.
"Yes, last night he reminded me to register as a member. But I tried, but I couldn't register, and the verification puzzle slider was always wrong. Then I dreamed again, and I could only see the homepage, but couldn't browse the posts. , I don't know if it was blocked." Chen Nian said gloomily.
"Maybe it's because you no longer own the system, and they can't confirm your identity," Shi Jing said.
Chen Nian suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have any regrets, instead he said: "Forget it, I don't have a system anymore, so I don't want to get involved."
Shi Jing nodded, and chatted in the store for a while, before waiting for the little girl, he dragged Chen Nian to the library and found Qin Shi.
"Is he the reader who saw the door in your report?" Qin Shi pushed his glasses, looked Chen Nian up and down, "He is not an internal employee, he has to go to the curator to sign."
Chen Nian said confusedly: "Mr. Shi, didn't you say that the door is a hallucination? Why does your colleague say the same as the real thing?"
He followed Shi Jing into the curator's office in a daze, and sat down politely.
The curator asked kindly, "Did you see it a few days ago?"
Chen Nian did the math: "Two or three days ago?"
The curator filled in a date, handed over the pen and said, "Okay, sign here."
After Chen Nian finished signing, he turned to Shi Jing a little confused: "That's all right?"
Shi Jing asked the curator again: "Yes?"
For the first time, the curator showed him a very pure smile, without any hypocrisy. "Okay, Teacher Shi handled this matter very well."
Shi Jing strikes while the iron is hot: "I still have time, the curator, let's talk about another report?"
The curator quickly covered his heart and made a gesture of suffocation: "Where is my medicine? Where did it go? Ah, I can't do it..."
Shi Jing: "..."
The curator's acting skills were so proficient that Chen Nian was pulled out of the office, and he looked back worriedly, saying: "Is there really no need to call your curator for emergency?"
"No. What he got was to report allergies." Shi Jing said indifferently, telling him that he could leave.
"Is it enough to really sign?" Chen Nian really felt that the library's confidentiality measures were worrying, so he just signed and finished. What if someone backed out?
Shi Jing also didn't understand the curator's operation.However, this is not something he can solve.He can't go back in time and go back in time to prevent Chen Nian from meeting the door.
He doesn't know this skill!
Thinking of the various plans in Shi Jing's mind, he looked at Chen Nian: "Xiao Chen recently, after becoming a detective, has his work and rest become irregular?"
Chen Nian felt that his aura suddenly changed, he was inexplicably scared, and lied: "No, no..."
"I can see your dark circles!"
"..."
Shi Jing drove Chen Nian back home with another timetable, and when he went downstairs, he asked at the borrowing desk, "Has anyone come to see me?"
"No. Did Teacher Shi date someone?"
"No. Then you are busy."
Shi Jing felt strange. Boss Yang said that the little girl had come to him, why didn't his colleagues know about it?He has moderate seniority among the librarians, and he is known to all the old and young. If someone looks for him, it is impossible that no one will leave a message.
It seems that chance encounters are impossible, so we can only sit back and wait.
Shi Jing began to count when she would be on duty at the borrowing desk.Otherwise, it is better to find someone to change shifts?
There are still people coming and going in the library today, and occasionally parents come with their children.Shi Jing observed for a while, but in the end he couldn't confirm if there was anyone he was looking for among these little girls.
They had never met, and the little girl probably wouldn't recognize him.Shi Jing saw that it was about the same time, so he could only go back first, and planned to go to work tomorrow.
Not long after he left, a little girl carrying a big schoolbag came to the reading desk.She looked to be about ten years old, not tall, with big eyes. She looked around between the male and female librarians in front of her, and she resolutely chose the male librarian.
"Hi Uncle, I'll return the book." The little girl said in a childish voice.
The librarian looked at the orange cat's head protruding from the schoolbag behind her in astonishment, and gently reminded: "Little sister, pets are not allowed in the library."
"This is a doll," said the little girl.
Librarian: "I saw it blinking."
"It's just a doll." The little girl insisted, "It's electric."
The librarian fell silent.
Forget it, let's get down to business first.
However, he took the book and scanned it, and found that there was no response, and there was no information displayed on the screen.Taking a closer look, this book... has no title, not even the content, and the inside pages are blank.Looks more like a notebook?The cover is a solid color, just a barcode affixed to the spine.Look at the label style, it's not from their library.
So the librarian said: "This book is not from our library."
The little girl said nonchalantly, "Then I'll find someone else."
So the librarian watched her take back the book, walked up to another male colleague, and pushed the book over.
"Hello, return the book."
"..."
The little girl's book was still unrecognizable, she went upstairs as if nothing had happened, borrowed a book, walked out of the library, and found a van parked on the side of the road since she entered the door, pouted.
However, when she saw a couple in the distance, she quickly smiled again, trotted all the way over, and said kindly: "Auntie!"
"Did Luoluo find the book she wanted?"
"Hmm! I want to eat ice cream, can I?"
"of course."
"Great!"
……
In the van, the man in the blue overalls watched the little girl's family go away, took off his sunglasses, quickly got out of the car, and walked into the library.
"Did a little girl come to borrow books just now? She's so tall, with a pink schoolbag on her back." The man asked, describing the little girl's appearance.
"Yes..." The librarian subconsciously replied, "What can you do?"
"What book did she borrow?"
"Why are you asking this?" The librarian looked wary.
"I'm her father." The man in overalls said dryly, "Recently she always reads some messy extracurricular books, and her academic performance has dropped. I'm worried that she borrowed some unhealthy books, and I want to know more about them."
"Oh...it's really nothing." The librarian said, "It's just a book of fairy tales."
The man in overalls returned to the van, dialed the phone and said, "Boss, she borrowed a book."
"Understood, where's the cat?"
"She seems to be still looking for someone to adopt. Are we going to bring her back?"
"Don't rush."
As night fell, the man in the blue overalls accepted the new order and drove to the gate of another community.
This is a rather run-down neighborhood.It's much worse than the one with the surname Shi.The man in work clothes thought to himself, and began to slap the mosquitoes in annoyance.
He doesn't like this kind of place very much, it's old and gloomy, there are many mosquitoes, and the street lamps are old and broken.Obviously he came to stare at people, but the shadow of the building was hidden in the darkness, as if a giant with a pair of eyes was also staring at him.
I really scare myself, how can a building have eyes?The man in overalls thought to himself.
In the rental room, Lu Sheng lifted the curtain and peeked out. Seeing that the van downstairs was parked in the same place again, he hurried back.
He sat back in front of the computer, made some mental preparations, and finally summoned up the courage to make a call.
"Someone is watching me."
Shi Jing was exchanging information about the forum with Note, when he heard his call, he said, "Exactly, do you know the realm of God?"
Lu Sheng: "What?"
"Nothing." Shi Jing sighed.Lu Sheng didn't know, so it's better not to know, so as not to exacerbate his panic.
So he replied: "Who is staring at you? I let the black cat stare at him."
Lu Sheng was taken aback, and quickly said: "No, no, no need. That's fine, I can watch it myself."
After speaking, he quickly hung up the phone.
So not long after, the man in overalls who accidentally dozed off downstairs suddenly shivered.For some reason, he always felt that there were more pairs of eyes around him!
But here, Shi Jing was hung up on the phone, so he had no choice but to call the next one.
"Lian Ping, help me find a forum."
Lian Ping was just brushing the game boredly. Hearing this, he immediately regained his energy. He packed his ticket and said, "No problem! What forum?"
"The domain of the gods."
After Shi Jing finished speaking, there was silence on the other side of the phone.There was such a long silence that he almost thought that time had stood still.
But he looked at his watch, the hands were moving, no problem.
He returned his attention to the phone, only to find that Lian Ping on the other side suddenly hung up.
"..." Are you still scared?
Shi Jing put down the phone and couldn't help doubting himself.Was he too impatient and poked the paper too fast for Lian Ping to accept it?
【Does the master really believe in Lian Ping? ] the note broke the silence and asked.
"I believe it, and he didn't choose the truth. If I ask him to help lurk in the forum, he can't refuse." Shi Jing said. "You forgot, the light sphere has system tasks."
Even if the talk fell apart, he didn't think that with Lian Ping's weakened light ball ability, he could compete with Time Note.
He was thinking about making another phone call to explain to Lian Ping, when suddenly there was an eager knock on the door.
"I guess it's Lian Ping." Shi Jing quickly judged, waited for a while, did not wait to stop, and then smiled: "Look, you don't think his coming will be dangerous."
[I just trust the master. 】
Shi Jing put away the pen, closed the notebook, stood up and said, "I believe in you too. But sometimes we need to believe in other people too."
Lian Ping collapsed on the recliner and watched her busy beside him, and sighed: "Why does Ai Qiu feel the same when she is on vacation or not?"
Ai Qiu said while typing: "If you have a whip behind you, you will run like me, and you won't be able to stop."
"Urgent..." Lian Ping was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, and said dejectedly, "I have it too, but I still can't run."
Ai Qiu disdainfully said: "What is there to remind you in your library?"
"Teacher Lian Ping doesn't need a whip, just throw the work to him. After all, he is a tool man." Wang Xu said while putting on a mask.
"..."
Now not only Lian Ping, but everyone else was silent.
"Teacher Wang Xu, don't say such heart-wrenching words." Lian Ping said dissatisfied.
"I've read the files of the personnel department. The reason why the curator hired you is clearly written." Wang Xu took off the cucumber slices from his face, not joking at all.
"At the beginning, I thought you came in because of Sister Tian Lu's relationship, so I checked it out, but it turned out that it was because you were a tool person." Her tone was understated, but it sounded even more contemptuous.
Shi Jing had never seen such an aggressive side of Wang Xu, nor had he seen Lian Ping so angry that he exploded.
The guy jumped up and clenched his fists, but didn't move, but blushed and couldn't speak.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Mama Shi quickly went into the house and brought out a plate of watermelon, saying: "Come here to not talk about work, eat melons and melons."
"Who is not a tool." Only Ai Qiu said something, especially deeply touched: "Your curator also said that Li is always a tool."
She remembered clearly that Li Dai was really furious at that time. He was so kind to get resources for the library, but he was teased face to face. Even if it was a joke, he couldn't help but show his true nature and jumped up.
"Oh." After hearing about Dai Li's experience, Lian Ping probably felt that Bi Mier had been compared to him—at least the curator never called him a tool man to his face, so he felt no burden at all, and collapsed again.
"Then be a tool man, it's pretty good, it means I'm still useful."
Shi Jing felt that Wang Xu was a bit strange today, and had been staring at Lian Ping intentionally or unintentionally, and what he said just now seemed to be testing something.
So on the pretext of going to the garden to pick vegetables for dinner, Shi Jing called her over and asked, "Why did Teacher Wang say that?"
"There's something wrong with Lian Ping," Wang Xu said.
Shi Jing thought that she was suspicious of Lian Ping's system again, but she said softly, "Lian Ping is sick, Teacher Shi doesn't know?"
"..." Shi Jing didn't know!
"Tian Lu told me that Lian Ping once went into the water to save people when he was in college, and was swept away by the whirlpool. He was out of breath after being rescued, but who knew that he woke up suddenly the next day. It's just that the root cause of the disease may have fallen later, and he would fall into a coma for a few days from time to time. He doesn't wake up, so when he's not energetic, you have to watch carefully. I think he doesn't seem to have any strength today, and I'm a little worried, so I stimulate him." Wang Xu said after a moment of deliberation.
Although the curator asked her to observe Lian Ping's system, what she said was true.
Shi Jing believed it.
And he was sure that the reason why Lian Ping was able to wake up was probably because he accepted the photosphere system at that time.If the ball of light disappeared... He was a little afraid to think about it.
Speaking of which, now that Lian Ping is not in good spirits, does it mean that his system power is weakening?
Under the grape shed, Lian Ping fell asleep on the recliner in a daze, and when he woke up, he was still limp as before, and he couldn't help but sadly said to the system: "Tongtong, I don't feel like I have any energy today."
The system said indifferently: "Host, you have been lazy recently! The points are not enough to redeem blue."
Lian Ping said weakly, "Why, haven't I always been commissioned?"
"The rewards for low-level tasks are different from those for high-level tasks. You, the host, have been making small fuss recently, while high-level tasks are always paddling."
"Did I take any high-level tasks?" Lian Ping sat up mentally.
"You forgot again! Help Shi Jing find the owner of the black cat."
"Oh." Lian Ping went back paralyzed again, "I don't think Teacher Shi really needs my help. I really only have to paddle when I'm by his side. And... I'm allergic to cats!"
"You didn't complain about allergies when you pet the cat." The system complained, and said earnestly: "Host, remind me, my current ability can't keep you alive for long. If you don't do some efficient tasks, I can't Upgrade in time, and we will be finished together by then."
Then he nagged: "I think you should ask Shi Jing about time management and learn how to spend time on key points instead of taking all tasks. Although my setting is that you must passively accept tasks when you encounter them, but You can... take advantage of the loopholes, understand? Usually, be more careful, avoid the entrustment of small fish and shrimp, and do high-level tasks."
"Okay, okay, I get it." Lian Ping chattered to himself, but his head exploded when he heard others chattering, and couldn't help muttering: "It's you who talk about missions all day long, I just dreamed that someone posted a mission. "
"What dream, what mission? Why don't I know." The system asked strangely.The system is bound to the spirit of the host, and a guy like Lian Ping who never defends himself can't hide his dreams from it.
"It seems to be a forum, where someone posted a task." Lian Ping tried to recall, "I saw someone looking for a hacker to attack a small world, someone looking for a pen that can draw real objects, someone looking for a bookmark that won't burn out, or something. Anyone looking for any door is a strange task."
The system listened to his list in silence, and it took a long time to recover and asked, "What's the name of that forum?"
"It seems to be called... the domain of the gods?"
"..." The system fell silent again.
"Did you take it?"
"No." Lian Ping patted his head and said, "Can I also accept the mission in my dream? I think the reward points are very high."
"can."
"Really?" Lian Ping was dubious, "But why do I feel that your tone sounds..."
"But as your task guidance system, I don't recommend you accept it." The system said coldly, "Otherwise you will die ugly."
"..." Lian Ping's expression died for a moment, and he said angrily, "Then tell me you can pick it up!"
"I want to see your host's choice."
"Next time, just tell me how to choose, don't beat around the bush." Lian Ping yawned, and asked again: "By the way, can I tell Teacher Shi about this dream?"
"Okay, if you want to hurt him, just say so." The system said bluntly.
"Of course I don't want to harm him! But... I saw someone offering a reward for a notebook, and the description seems to be similar to Teacher Shi's." Lian Ping said hesitantly.
……
When Shi Jing came back with the vegetables, he felt that Lian Ping's eyes were strange, so he couldn't help but ask, "What, did I drop something?"
Lian Ping almost shouted out "How do you know I want to say this", and said bitterly: "Not yet."
Shi Jing: "Temporarily?"
"Uh... just to remind you, you didn't lose that notebook, did you?" Lian Ping really wanted to tell him, but he was afraid that what the system said was true, so he had to shut up quickly .
"No." Shi Jing observed his timeline and light sphere, and suddenly said: "How about, Teacher Lian Ping, please do me a favor and watch it for me. If anyone finds out about it, please tell me."
Lian Ping's ball of light really brightened up.
"Shi Jing issued a guardian request, will the host accept it?" After the system mechanically reported, it hurriedly urged: "Hurry up!"
Lian Ping: "Okay, okay!"
Then he quietly asked: "Then can I tell him about the forum?"
"No." The system warned, "That forum is very dangerous. The host can only find out who posted the task, and then tell Shi Jing who it is. You must not let him access the forum by himself."
"Is it as dangerous as you said? Isn't it all right if I read the forum?" Lian Ping was very puzzled.
"Host, don't forget." The system said seriously, "You are the one who owns the system."
Lian Ping understood after thinking about it, and his face changed: "You mean, the people on that forum..."
"They are all system holders." The system sighed, "In short, the host remembers to wait and see what happens, don't register as a member, and don't disclose any information about yourself. The system exchange forum belongs to the spiritual field, and it won't be like a real online forum. To identify the IP, as long as you don't say the wrong thing, no one will recognize you in reality."
"Oh." Lian Ping wiped his cold sweat.
Even colder, the system reminded: "There are two people beside you who have questlines, so the host must not disclose any private information, including food and hobbies, when inquiring on the forum, understand?"
Lian Ping found out that Ai Qiu and Shi Ma also had systems, and he was taken aback. He couldn't help worrying: "Are there so many systems in the world? All of you... It's not aliens who are planning to invade our earth, come first Corrode the spirit."
"What are you thinking? There weren't that many." The system said helplessly, "The internal strife at the headquarters spread to this side, and the balance of the situation was broken. Some systems followed suit and changed the quest line without authorization, so not only humans are in danger, Our system itself is not secure."
Lian Ping said thoughtfully, "But Ai Qiu and Aunt Shi's system doesn't look like a dangerous system."
One is Shi Jing's mother, and the other is the female assistant of the president who seems to admire Shi Jing very much.In Lian Ping's logic, people Shi Jing trusts and people who are willing to invite to his home are not dangerous people.
So he quickly relaxed, ate the snacks made by Shima with peace of mind, and played Dou Dizhu on Ai Qiu's computer.
And Shi Jing really doesn't feel bad for Ai Qiu.When he returned the book, Ai Qiu said, "You finished it so soon?"
Shi Jing didn't think she would do him any harm if he generously lent him a book that was so important to her.
At this time, in Ai Qiu's mind, the system is also persuading: "Host, you borrow it so casually, what if you lose it?"
Ai Qiu said indifferently: "Don't worry, he is a librarian, if he picks it up and sends it back once, he can send it back a second time."
Shi Jing really reminded her: "I haven't finished reading, just read the general talk, you put it away, don't lose it again."
After all, it is a book in the library. Even if there is no such thing as a system, it will be very troublesome to lose it.
Ai Qiu listened to his words and put it away, and began to close his eyes and rest.Not long after, a webpage appeared in front of her eyes. She dipped into it and saw a new pinned post that was particularly eye-catching:
#Suspected manager haunted, pay attention around the library! ! ! #
She walked over curiously, but got a reminder that "only registered members can view it", so she had to browse other posts.
She has discovered this forum called <God’s Realm for a while. The people in the forum seem to have accepted the system tasks like her. Those who want to communicate with each other in the same city. >
For a long time, the forum was full of old posts. Recently, many new ones popped up, almost all of which were hidden objects, and a word appeared frequently: manager.
There is also a historical introduction posted by the moderator on Zhiding. The general idea is: In ancient times, the God of Creation created many tools to manage the world. Ordinary people get the tools and become the managers of the world, possessing incredible power.Collect all seven tools and decipher them, and you will become a god, omnipotent.
Ai Qiu: "..."
Is this story the Dragon Ball Otherworld version? !She doesn't know anything else, but... the result of collecting all seven dragon balls, no matter the original game or the derivative games, are all pitfalls!
So Ai Qiu immediately labeled the guy who released the introduction "Master of Fudge", and then looked at the man's vest: the right hand of God.
Hehehe, it really is a magic stick.
On the contrary, some historical grave posts are not bad, with various classifications about the system, skill introductions, how to clear tasks efficiently, how to redeem rewards without cheating, etc.
It's just that there are too few posts on strategies... Ai Qiu sighed and quit the forum, woke up, and met Wang Xu's big round glasses.
She was not used to being too close, so she said, "Teacher Wang Xu, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing. Xiao Ai, your skin is good. What skin care products do you use?" Wang Xu said with a smile, but she was strange in her heart. In the glasses just now, Ai Qiu's mission line fluctuated and interfered, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
Sure enough, there is something wrong with the equipment.Wang Xu thought helplessly.
Ai Qiu casually said a few brands to deal with her, and then secretly asked her own system: "System, do you know the manager?"
The system hesitated: "Where did the host know?"
"A forum." Ai Qiu answered briefly, and then asked: "Who is the manager?"
"They are the supervisors of this world. They have always been prejudiced against the existence of the system. It is best not to provoke the host. After all, from a certain point of view, our system is considered a cheat." The system reminded cautiously.
Ai Qiu understood.The game must not be discovered by the official.
"Host, this is not a game..." the system reminded her again.
"Hmm." Ai Qiu looked at the harmonious small farmyard in front of him, the clear blue sky could be seen in the gap above the green shade, and the white clouds drifted leisurely, and said in a trance: "I just think that all this is too unreal. If you have experienced In the last days, I will also wonder if this is a game or a dream..."
"Host rest assured, after completing this mission, you can choose to stay in this world, or go to a new and better world, and you will not return to the last days." The system said distressedly. "What system do you want next? When I return to the headquarters, I will recommend you to them. Farming? Infrastructure? Harem? Or a big winner in life?"
Ai Qiu looked at Shi Jing in the distance, and murmured: "I want to be a librarian..."
system:"……"
……
Shi Jing didn't know that he was being envied by others, so he made a plan for tomorrow and agreed with a few people on the time to return to the city.
Although the little girl said that she would go to the library to look for him, he still wanted to go to the thrift store first to see if he could meet anyone. It would be best to solve things outside of work during off-duty hours.
Shi Jing's time was accurate, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. There was a heavy rain that night, and Shi's mother was woken up in the middle of the night, saying that the shed on the base was broken, and people had to be assembled to repair the shed and drain water, otherwise The investment of the whole village will be in vain.
Shi Jing and the others also went to help.
The old village head was a little hesitant at first, but the situation was urgent and there was a real shortage of people in the middle of the night, so he didn't stop Shi Jing in the end.
"Hour, can the rain be stopped alone?"
【Insufficient permissions.The master now only has single-target static skills, and cannot take the initiative to perform large-scale static. 】
Shi Jing had no choice but to give up, thinking secretly that he had to plan how to earn achievement points when he went back.He has been paying too much attention to the system recently, and has forgotten his self-cultivation.
Fortunately, there are many people and strong strength, and finally rescued in time, and the villagers were relieved.
Wearing a raincoat, Shi Jing quietly left the shed with her head down, fearing that the villagers would recognize her.Unexpectedly, when he was about to return to the city the next day, he was still discovered.
He obviously had dawdled until no one showed up, but a middle-aged man suddenly appeared.
"Isn't this a stone mirror?" the man said.
Shi Jing let out a "hmm", thinking about whether to cast a single-body still if he was scolded for a while.
The man said again: "Did you also go to the fruit and vegetable base to rescue the emergency yesterday? I saw it, but why did you walk so fast, and you disappeared in a blink of an eye."
Shi Jing recalled, the emergency rescue seemed to go smoothly last night?Nothing went wrong, it's not like he's going to blame him for the torrential rain...
"That beautiful boss is your friend."
Shi Jing couldn't figure out what the fellow was thinking, so he could only respond vaguely: "Mmm..."
Ai Qiu didn't say anything bad about him, did he?
"Thank you." The middle-aged man said suddenly.
Shi Jing: "Huh?"
"I'm the person in charge of our village base. Thanks to your help last night and the friends you brought, our base's agricultural production this year has been kept, and we don't have to worry about sales. It's a good start. Of course, it's you She has the most credit for Mom's idea." The middle-aged fellow scratched his head and said naively.
Shi Jing let go of half of his heart.
The man asked again: "Are you still so unlucky now?"
Shi Jing: "..."
He then said mysteriously: "I heard from your mother that you asked for a talisman from an expert, and your luck changed! Hey, my son has been a bit unlucky recently, and he has been bumping into walls everywhere when he is looking for a job. Where did you ask for the talisman? Can't reveal it."
Shi Jing didn't want to talk.But my mother's lie still has to be round.So he took out his pocket casually, found a piece of paper, and handed it over.
The middle-aged man left as if he had found a treasure.
Shi Jing turned around and saw that his mother had filled the trunk with the freshly picked fruits and vegetables from the garden. He didn't want to ask any questions, but looked at the soft ball of light on her body, hugged her and said: "Thank you, mom. Remember to tell me if you have anything to do."
Shi Ma froze for a moment, then smiled and said: "Of course. Your father is a boring gourd. If I don't tell my son, who else will I talk to?"
After Shi Jing left, she turned and went back to the yard, looked at the greenery all over the garden, wiped her eyes, and murmured: "0158, why do I feel that my son seems to know everything."
"He didn't say anything, so let's pretend we don't know. Come on host, Shi Jing's luck is improving, and you can see that he has made friends." The system cheered her up, and said expectantly, "Let's make persistent efforts, what will be planted next?" ?”
"That's right." Shi Ma said happily, "He never had any friends before."
……
Shi Jing didn't know if the people around him were friends, but on the way back to the city, Ai Qiu and Wang Xu had already started chatting about skin care experience and novel book list.And Lian Ping sat in the back seat with him, and soon fell into a daze, paralyzed and sound asleep, completely forgetting his image.
Until the car stopped halfway.
There seems to be a car accident ahead, but it is said that the victims are missing.The car in the accident was deformed and turned over several times. The owner of the car got down but found no one or blood. The traffic police investigated and found no trace. The injured seemed to disappear out of thin air.Can't... that car is driverless?
Although there was no blood, the wreckage of the vehicle was extremely tragic. After seeing the scene of the accident, Ai Qiu drove more seriously, and Wang Xu also wisely stopped talking.
Shi Jing was a little concerned.If he hadn't encountered the time note, he couldn't imagine that people could disappear out of thin air.But now... the person who can disappear in a dangerous situation, if not the ability to possess the light sphere, is the manager.
The tension eased when the three returned to the city safely.
Shi Jing got off the car directly at the thrift store, bid farewell to the three of them, and went to Boss Yang to ask about the little girl.
Unexpectedly, Chen Nian was also in the store. Seeing him coming, he immediately cried out with a sad face: "Mr. Shi, the cat owner does not agree with me adopting a big orange."
Shi Jing had already guessed this result.Even if the little girl agrees, the two cats are tools of the manager, and it is impossible to recognize a new owner at will.
Just as he was about to comfort him, Chen Nian said again: "Mr. Shi, come on, it's up to you! If you adopt it, I will at least have a chance to see it."
Shi Jing didn't have the nerve to say that he didn't intend to adopt, and instead told him, "Don't tell others what you saw in the library that day."
Chen Nian was sighing, but he didn't realize: "What's the matter?"
Shi Jing didn't say anything directly, and pointed to the door of the thrift store.
Chen Nian looked at it in confusion for a while, then remembered, nodded first, and then said: "Then I think it's better to tell Mr. Shi about something, it seems...someone is looking for that door."
Shi Jing: "What??"
"I've been having strange dreams a few days ago." Chen Nian said worriedly, "I always dreamed that I went to a forum, and someone would post a task in that forum, and I took it from there before. Then, yesterday I watched I see, someone posted a post about finding the door."
"What forum?!" Shi Jing asked in surprise.
"A
<On the forum of the Realm of God, that person posted a sketch of the door, I feel...it looks like the one I saw in the library. "Chen Nian said hesitantly.>
Shi Jing is strange.Qin Shi said that those readers who met the door signed a non-disclosure agreement, and it was impossible to spread news on the Internet.
Then why would anyone want to find the door?Could it be the original owner of the door?
"I see, don't tell anyone else about this." Shi Jing said solemnly, "The same is true about the door, don't reply to the posts on the forum, go to the library with me later, and sign a non-disclosure agreement. "
He asked about the situation of the forum again, and couldn't help being shocked.
That is clearly a forum where system holders gather!
"Did you enter in a dream?" Shi Jing asked strangely.He just searched the Internet, but couldn't find any relevant forums.
"Yes, last night he reminded me to register as a member. But I tried, but I couldn't register, and the verification puzzle slider was always wrong. Then I dreamed again, and I could only see the homepage, but couldn't browse the posts. , I don't know if it was blocked." Chen Nian said gloomily.
"Maybe it's because you no longer own the system, and they can't confirm your identity," Shi Jing said.
Chen Nian suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have any regrets, instead he said: "Forget it, I don't have a system anymore, so I don't want to get involved."
Shi Jing nodded, and chatted in the store for a while, before waiting for the little girl, he dragged Chen Nian to the library and found Qin Shi.
"Is he the reader who saw the door in your report?" Qin Shi pushed his glasses, looked Chen Nian up and down, "He is not an internal employee, he has to go to the curator to sign."
Chen Nian said confusedly: "Mr. Shi, didn't you say that the door is a hallucination? Why does your colleague say the same as the real thing?"
He followed Shi Jing into the curator's office in a daze, and sat down politely.
The curator asked kindly, "Did you see it a few days ago?"
Chen Nian did the math: "Two or three days ago?"
The curator filled in a date, handed over the pen and said, "Okay, sign here."
After Chen Nian finished signing, he turned to Shi Jing a little confused: "That's all right?"
Shi Jing asked the curator again: "Yes?"
For the first time, the curator showed him a very pure smile, without any hypocrisy. "Okay, Teacher Shi handled this matter very well."
Shi Jing strikes while the iron is hot: "I still have time, the curator, let's talk about another report?"
The curator quickly covered his heart and made a gesture of suffocation: "Where is my medicine? Where did it go? Ah, I can't do it..."
Shi Jing: "..."
The curator's acting skills were so proficient that Chen Nian was pulled out of the office, and he looked back worriedly, saying: "Is there really no need to call your curator for emergency?"
"No. What he got was to report allergies." Shi Jing said indifferently, telling him that he could leave.
"Is it enough to really sign?" Chen Nian really felt that the library's confidentiality measures were worrying, so he just signed and finished. What if someone backed out?
Shi Jing also didn't understand the curator's operation.However, this is not something he can solve.He can't go back in time and go back in time to prevent Chen Nian from meeting the door.
He doesn't know this skill!
Thinking of the various plans in Shi Jing's mind, he looked at Chen Nian: "Xiao Chen recently, after becoming a detective, has his work and rest become irregular?"
Chen Nian felt that his aura suddenly changed, he was inexplicably scared, and lied: "No, no..."
"I can see your dark circles!"
"..."
Shi Jing drove Chen Nian back home with another timetable, and when he went downstairs, he asked at the borrowing desk, "Has anyone come to see me?"
"No. Did Teacher Shi date someone?"
"No. Then you are busy."
Shi Jing felt strange. Boss Yang said that the little girl had come to him, why didn't his colleagues know about it?He has moderate seniority among the librarians, and he is known to all the old and young. If someone looks for him, it is impossible that no one will leave a message.
It seems that chance encounters are impossible, so we can only sit back and wait.
Shi Jing began to count when she would be on duty at the borrowing desk.Otherwise, it is better to find someone to change shifts?
There are still people coming and going in the library today, and occasionally parents come with their children.Shi Jing observed for a while, but in the end he couldn't confirm if there was anyone he was looking for among these little girls.
They had never met, and the little girl probably wouldn't recognize him.Shi Jing saw that it was about the same time, so he could only go back first, and planned to go to work tomorrow.
Not long after he left, a little girl carrying a big schoolbag came to the reading desk.She looked to be about ten years old, not tall, with big eyes. She looked around between the male and female librarians in front of her, and she resolutely chose the male librarian.
"Hi Uncle, I'll return the book." The little girl said in a childish voice.
The librarian looked at the orange cat's head protruding from the schoolbag behind her in astonishment, and gently reminded: "Little sister, pets are not allowed in the library."
"This is a doll," said the little girl.
Librarian: "I saw it blinking."
"It's just a doll." The little girl insisted, "It's electric."
The librarian fell silent.
Forget it, let's get down to business first.
However, he took the book and scanned it, and found that there was no response, and there was no information displayed on the screen.Taking a closer look, this book... has no title, not even the content, and the inside pages are blank.Looks more like a notebook?The cover is a solid color, just a barcode affixed to the spine.Look at the label style, it's not from their library.
So the librarian said: "This book is not from our library."
The little girl said nonchalantly, "Then I'll find someone else."
So the librarian watched her take back the book, walked up to another male colleague, and pushed the book over.
"Hello, return the book."
"..."
The little girl's book was still unrecognizable, she went upstairs as if nothing had happened, borrowed a book, walked out of the library, and found a van parked on the side of the road since she entered the door, pouted.
However, when she saw a couple in the distance, she quickly smiled again, trotted all the way over, and said kindly: "Auntie!"
"Did Luoluo find the book she wanted?"
"Hmm! I want to eat ice cream, can I?"
"of course."
"Great!"
……
In the van, the man in the blue overalls watched the little girl's family go away, took off his sunglasses, quickly got out of the car, and walked into the library.
"Did a little girl come to borrow books just now? She's so tall, with a pink schoolbag on her back." The man asked, describing the little girl's appearance.
"Yes..." The librarian subconsciously replied, "What can you do?"
"What book did she borrow?"
"Why are you asking this?" The librarian looked wary.
"I'm her father." The man in overalls said dryly, "Recently she always reads some messy extracurricular books, and her academic performance has dropped. I'm worried that she borrowed some unhealthy books, and I want to know more about them."
"Oh...it's really nothing." The librarian said, "It's just a book of fairy tales."
The man in overalls returned to the van, dialed the phone and said, "Boss, she borrowed a book."
"Understood, where's the cat?"
"She seems to be still looking for someone to adopt. Are we going to bring her back?"
"Don't rush."
As night fell, the man in the blue overalls accepted the new order and drove to the gate of another community.
This is a rather run-down neighborhood.It's much worse than the one with the surname Shi.The man in work clothes thought to himself, and began to slap the mosquitoes in annoyance.
He doesn't like this kind of place very much, it's old and gloomy, there are many mosquitoes, and the street lamps are old and broken.Obviously he came to stare at people, but the shadow of the building was hidden in the darkness, as if a giant with a pair of eyes was also staring at him.
I really scare myself, how can a building have eyes?The man in overalls thought to himself.
In the rental room, Lu Sheng lifted the curtain and peeked out. Seeing that the van downstairs was parked in the same place again, he hurried back.
He sat back in front of the computer, made some mental preparations, and finally summoned up the courage to make a call.
"Someone is watching me."
Shi Jing was exchanging information about the forum with Note, when he heard his call, he said, "Exactly, do you know the realm of God?"
Lu Sheng: "What?"
"Nothing." Shi Jing sighed.Lu Sheng didn't know, so it's better not to know, so as not to exacerbate his panic.
So he replied: "Who is staring at you? I let the black cat stare at him."
Lu Sheng was taken aback, and quickly said: "No, no, no need. That's fine, I can watch it myself."
After speaking, he quickly hung up the phone.
So not long after, the man in overalls who accidentally dozed off downstairs suddenly shivered.For some reason, he always felt that there were more pairs of eyes around him!
But here, Shi Jing was hung up on the phone, so he had no choice but to call the next one.
"Lian Ping, help me find a forum."
Lian Ping was just brushing the game boredly. Hearing this, he immediately regained his energy. He packed his ticket and said, "No problem! What forum?"
"The domain of the gods."
After Shi Jing finished speaking, there was silence on the other side of the phone.There was such a long silence that he almost thought that time had stood still.
But he looked at his watch, the hands were moving, no problem.
He returned his attention to the phone, only to find that Lian Ping on the other side suddenly hung up.
"..." Are you still scared?
Shi Jing put down the phone and couldn't help doubting himself.Was he too impatient and poked the paper too fast for Lian Ping to accept it?
【Does the master really believe in Lian Ping? ] the note broke the silence and asked.
"I believe it, and he didn't choose the truth. If I ask him to help lurk in the forum, he can't refuse." Shi Jing said. "You forgot, the light sphere has system tasks."
Even if the talk fell apart, he didn't think that with Lian Ping's weakened light ball ability, he could compete with Time Note.
He was thinking about making another phone call to explain to Lian Ping, when suddenly there was an eager knock on the door.
"I guess it's Lian Ping." Shi Jing quickly judged, waited for a while, did not wait to stop, and then smiled: "Look, you don't think his coming will be dangerous."
[I just trust the master. 】
Shi Jing put away the pen, closed the notebook, stood up and said, "I believe in you too. But sometimes we need to believe in other people too."
