Reis's performance made Lu Li realize that something was wrong.
He lowered his head and thought, first ruling out the door's behavior, and then ruling out the possibility of an illusion.
And since it's not my own trouble...
Lu Li roughly recounted his experience in the bookshelf.
After hearing the words, Reis took a deep breath and suddenly pulled off the alarm device under the counter.
Buzz——
An unbearable high-pitched cry suddenly echoed in the sky above the real library.
Lu Li, who was closest to the source of the sound, was the first to bear the brunt, and his sudden frown showed the pain he was feeling at this moment.
Bang——
The wailing noise was suddenly mixed with a loud bang. A secret door integrated into the wall suddenly opened, followed by another loud noise, and another secret door opened.
The secret doors on the wall opened one by one amidst the sound of crying.
Reis stood up and shouted loudly: "Weird invasion, everyone leaves the library through the exit immediately!"
Everyone in the hall looked around in surprise because of the sudden cry and howl, putting down their books and running towards the exits.
Leith looked at Lu Li, his eyes that had lost their sharpness due to time behind his glasses did not know when they would become sharp again: "There are no book ghosts here! The real libraries affiliated to the three major organizations absolutely prohibit the appearance of weird things. Thank you very much for the information you provided young man
Man, this is a serious matter, get out of here right now!"
"What about you?" Lu Li asked.
"Noise can temporarily restrain weird actions, so leave at this time."
Reis replied, pulling the second mechanism under the counter.
A dark hole suddenly appeared under his feet. Reis jumped into the hole decisively, and the entrance disappeared.
In an instant, only Lu Li was left in the entire library.
And howl.
and "Book Ghosts."
Lu Li turned around and walked towards the only exit that was still open. Coincidentally, that was where he left in the morning.
His pace was not fast, and when something strange was hiding in the dark, this normal walking speed made people anxious to push him forward.
Lu Li was thinking about the "book ghost".
He felt no malice or aura from the other party, nor did he feel any intention to harm himself from the other party.
When he walked to the open wooden door under the giant door and stood in front of it, Lu Li suddenly felt something and looked back.
Between the seventh bookshelf and the eighth bookshelf, an illusory figure in a long skirt stood there, almost fading away, with the same distorted face as before, inducing fear and disgust in people's hearts.
She didn't seem to be bothered by the noise. She raised her arms and waved slowly to Lu Li, as if saying goodbye.
"Thanks."
A soft voice that was almost inaudible, hidden in the noise, reached his ears.
Lu Li's pupils suddenly shrank, he stared at her silently for a few seconds, nodded, turned around and walked out of the library.
Bang!
The secret door automatically closed behind him, blocking out the piercing noise like the wail of a banshee in the library.
…
Elena is a service worker, or to put it more bluntly...she is a girl.
There is nothing shameful about this, there are many pretty women from lower class backgrounds in Belfast who have become such a profession.
They are usually forced by gangs, or they don't want to work all day just to earn money for kerosene and brown bread.
The same goes for Elena, but she thinks she is different from them, for example...higher than them.
At least a month ago, Elena was still wandering around the taverns in the Rum District, but after those two incidents happened in the tavern, especially when her stupid sister was...she didn't dare to go to the bar anymore.
, but like those old and lustful old women, hiding in front of the rented houses in the alleys, recruiting those smelly and lustful men.
Although Elena heard that the murderer and his men had died tragically not long ago, she still did not leave here out of fear. One thing to say, except that these customers are a little smelly, a little poor, and love to bargain, there is nothing else
Disadvantages. At least they won't beat people up like drunken guests in the pub, and there are no gangsters to collect protection money.
Speaking of which, that woman and her sister were really pitiful. One was thrown into the sea and drowned alive by those people, and the other had her face cut open and hung on a lamppost...
Elena, with her shoulders hunched and leaning in front of the cabin door, was bored and thinking that the men coming and going in front of her couldn't make her talk about soliciting.
She thinks she is smarter and can tell which men are penniless and which men are simply here to take advantage. She will not stick to men like those old women who are brainless and not young.
, was taken advantage of and couldn't get a single shilling.
At this moment, a slender figure suddenly hit the depths of her eyes, and Elena's messy thoughts suddenly paused.
The strange black hair and black eyes carry an irresistible sense of mystery, and the outstanding appearance makes the figure look like a black gem emerging from the rubble.
Elena shook her head suddenly and found that several little bitches were already staring at that figure with bright eyes. She felt anxious, raised her skirt and ran towards him.
Because she was closer, Elena was the first to hug his arm. She looked proudly at the women, raised her head and asked, "Hey handsome man, do you want to have some fun with your sister?"
Although this man did not slow down, he did not dodge or throw away himself. Elena realized that she had a chance!
Just as she was about to speak, she noticed that the guy's pace had quickened a bit. She had to step on high heels that were difficult to walk fast and hold the man's arm to follow reluctantly.
"Don't, don't walk so fast...my feet hurt so much——"
Elena staggered and trotted to follow the man. She wanted to break free, but found that her arm was caught by the man's arm——
Finally, after jogging for dozens of seconds, the man who had become a bastard in Elena's heart stopped.
This is already the edge of the alley, and you can see the streets with people coming and going outside.
The man let go of Elena, looked at her calmly and said politely: "I'm fine, thank you."
The panting Elena's complaint turned into shock in an instant: "What's wrong with you!?"
"Get out of trouble."
As the man spoke, he reached out and took out a stack of shillings from his arms, took out a 10 shilling denomination, thought about it, took it back, replaced it with 5 shillings and handed it to Elena.
"goodbye."
He turned towards the street and disappeared around the corner.
"Cheapskate, bah!"
Elena spat at his back, stamped her feet angrily, and with another ouch, she limped back to the front of the hut, dragging her somewhat crooked ankle.
Ignoring the sarcasm of those hateful ugly women, Elena was so tired that she planned to take a short break. She got back into the dark wooden house and closed the door.
The noise was blocked out, Elena exhaled and relaxed. She turned around and suddenly saw an illusory figure wearing a long skirt with her back to her
Elena was stunned and subconsciously summoned the identity of the figure behind her.
