Chapter 260 The Book of Mysteries

"Do you know what this reminds me of?" Kidd and Busujima Saeko left the haunted house together. Looking at the fog that was much thicker, he took out two masks and handed one to Busujima Saeko and said.

"where?"

"London used to be a foggy city. At that time, London was just like here. It was full of heavy fog. What was even worse there than here was that the air smelled of sulfur." ​​Kidd complained.

Fog City...London...that era must have been the 20th century. It seems that the timeline of his original world is relatively early, but it may just be a city with the same name.

Busujima Saeko thought to herself while putting on the mask.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the location of the library. The only library in this town was right in the middle of the haunted house and the castle. The fog floating in the air here was a little more serious than in other places. Even if you look carefully,

You can directly see floating objects in the air.

The library has a total of three floors. The upper two floors are all covered with opaque glass. Even Kidd can't see through it. The bottom floor is even more exaggerated. It has no windows at all.

Pedestrians passing by all used long scarves to cover the lower half of their faces. The only thing exposed was a pair of cold eyes. There was no emotion in them at all. It was as if everyone was holding the words "Shut me up."

The idea of ​​“bullshit” is the same as in survival.

Kidd and Saeko Busujima followed the crowd silently, trying to ensure that their behavior patterns were similar to those of these people and not making themselves too conspicuous.

There is no queue at the entrance of the library, because it seems that no pass is required to enter and exit here. The entrance is simply separated to separate the entrance and exit.

After the two looked at each other, Kidd silently speeded up his pace a little, while Busujima Saeko slowed down a little, keeping a distance of about five meters between the two.

Drop~

A sound like a prompt sounded when Kidd passed through the gate. All the citizens who heard the sound raised their heads and looked at Kidd.

Busujima Saeko's palms were sweating nervously. She and Kidd separated in the hope that they would at least have someone to take care of them if something happened, so that they wouldn't be blamed for everything. The situation now seems to be very bad.

Kidd patted the white clothes on his body and walked in naturally, as if he wasn't the one who caused the beep. As a result, the people here still accepted this, and when Kidd entered, they also lowered their heads.

Busujima Saeko breathed a sigh of relief and entered the library in the same manner. As the only person who caused the notification sound, the distance between the two was maintained very well, ensuring that the other person was within his line of sight while still looking

It's not like I know someone.

The library on the first floor is very large, but the bookshelves are basically empty. The seats on both sides of the bookshelves are already full of people, and everyone is holding a book and looking at it intently.

It is precisely because of this that although there are many people in the entire library, there is really no sound at all, and the silence is a bit scary.

In this extremely quiet environment, Kidd could clearly hear his own heartbeat, and even caught a little bit of the sound of blood flowing.

Looking around, Kidd didn't find the stairs to the library, but comparing the height of the building seen outside, there was at least one floor here.

With no way to go to the second floor for the time being, the two began to scan the bookshelves one by one. There were really few books on the bookshelves, so their efficiency was quite high.

But what they didn't realize was that every time they glanced at a bookshelf, the readers behind them put down the books in their hands and silently stared at the backs of the two people.

It wasn't until the two of them scanned the bookshelf to the middle that the people next to them looked away.

Busujima Saeko carefully picked up a book on the bookshelf in front of her, opened the catalog and looked at it. After realizing that it was not a biography, she put it back, and so on.

Suddenly, Kid lightly knocked on the bookshelf with a book. After a slight collision, he put the book a little closer to Busujima Saeko.

Busujima Saeko calmly put down the book in her hand, then stretched out her hand and touched the book that Kidd found.

As soon as he opened the catalog, Busujima Saeko read two pages before he saw a bunch of familiar terms, such as strange houses and bloodthirsty swords. It seemed that they were lucky this time and found what they needed soon after arriving.

.

Close the pages, and there are four big characters written on the gold-gilded leather cover of this book, Book of Mysteries!

At this time, Busujima Saeko tried to open her personal space and wanted to take the book in. However, this was a bit whimsical. There was a very strong repulsive force between the book and the entrance to the personal space, as if the book itself resisted approaching.

I have no choice but to lend this book out through formal channels.

'I'm going to try it first to see if I can lend it out. You can help me pay attention to the situation here and remind me if anything is wrong.'

'No problem, go ahead.'

The two communicated with their eyes and brief gestures.

After the exchange, Busujima Saeko began to act. First, she took a book and looked at both sides of the bookshelf. She looked like she was distressed because she didn't have a place. Then she walked towards the door, pretending to find a place but actually she wanted to go directly from there.

Go out the door.

There's nothing I can do about it. This library is the weirdest one Busujima Saeko has ever seen. There's no security check or ticket needed to get in. There's even a service desk. Busushima Saeko has never seen it before. It seems like everything

It all depends on consciousness.

"Ma'am... books in the library are not allowed to be borrowed." A hoarse voice reached Busujima Saeko's ears.

Busujima Saeko turned around and saw a hooded, extremely thin man sitting in the front looking at him.

"I know, I'm just looking for a place." After Busujima Saeko finished speaking, he turned around and walked back. After he was far away from the exit, the man lowered his head again.

"Look at that person, there may be accidents if you force a breakthrough. Do you have any other options?" Busujima Saeko put the book on the shelf, tapped her fingers gently on the shelf, and used Morse code to match her eyes with Kidd

Talking.

Kidd nodded, 'Just leave it to me. Let's go out first. There is a problem here.'

After typing the Morse code, Kidd placed the books on the bookshelf, and then took Busujima Saeko to the door. This time, no one stopped him, but the man at the door opened his eyes when Kidd left.

Keep looking at him.
