"Director, long time no see!"
At a bar, Eli meets Severo Mesa, the current director of the library.
"It's really been a long time!" Severo filled a large glass of rum, drank it, and the liquor left directly down his beard, and then said.
After meeting ten years ago, the two became inexplicably good friends after an accident, occasionally drinking together to communicate his progress in finding a wizard.
"Where did you go this time?" Eli looked at the curator. Compared with ten years ago, he was also much older. His face looked a little haggard at this time, but his eyes were still bright.
As before, he would travel to various countries every once in a while, looking for traces of wizards, but so far he still found nothing.
"I went to the Kingdom of Home this time. I heard that there is a very mysterious area there, and people often go missing for no reason. As a result, I only found one that was filled with fog all the year round, and there was only a magical beast in it." Severo shook his head. ,A bit disappointed.
He is obviously much older than I was ten years ago, but the desire to find a wizard in his heart is stronger, burning his aging body like a flame.
"No, but it's normal, no one knows where they are?" Eli said regretfully. He really hoped that the curator could help him find the wizard camp, but unfortunately there was no one.
"Curator, I'm curious, why are you so obsessed with wizards, isn't it bad now?" Eli asked.
"You don't understand!" The curator shook his head, looked at Eli and said:
"I think you are a good person to communicate with, but you don't seem to understand me that well. For me, I have been looking for it for 20 years, and it is already a kind of obsession that I cannot give up. "
That's it!
Eli nodded, still a little confused.
"Okay, where does the curator plan to go next, further afield?" Eli asked again.
"No, it took me four years to go out this time, and I may not be able to come back if I go further." The curator shook his head, "This time I plan to leave the empire and go to the historical Salin Mehta. I'm going to look for the places Tring has been to, what he may have left behind may be more reliable!"
"Well, come on!" Eli encouraged.
It may be that no one ever talked to him about this, so Severo Mesa told Eli everything he knew, including the name of the first emperor, and the possibility that he was a wizard, and the king was forcibly used Witchcraft devours death and more!
This intrigued Eli, a lot of which he didn't know.
After all, Severo Mesa has been at the top of the empire for decades, and the information collected is not comparable to Eli.
Eli heard it with gusto, and Severo Mesa took him as a confidant.
"Well, yes, I will act in the empire next. This may be my last hope. Where are these wizards?" Saying the point, Severo was put on the table. , the rum flew straight out.
On the other hand, Eli pursed his lips.
"Indeed, maybe wizards don't exist at all!" Eli nodded "in agreement."
"No, they definitely exist, but they may not be nearby." Severo shook his head, denying Eli's guess.
"All right."
"And then I'm going to get rid of the position of librarian and concentrate on doing this." Suddenly, Severo exploded a bomb.
"What? Are you going to step down?" Eli's eyes widened.
"Yes, I've decided, I'm 60, I really don't have much time, and I haven't contributed much to the library over the years, I think it's time to give up my position, you don't need to persuade me Me." Severo Mesa said firmly.
Severo said so, what else could Eli say.
I just sighed, after all, it's hard to find a curator who doesn't care about anything.
I hope that the next curator will not be too troublesome, but maybe the teacher can become the curator, but it is unlikely. After all, Bachelor Lemon is already 68 years old, and he is not too young.
"Well, Byrne VII is different from his father. In fact, he has certain opinions on the independence of the library. If I leave on my own initiative, he may move. You can remind your teacher!" Severo added.
"Okay." Eli nodded.
This is bad news. After all, if the library becomes the king's vassal, if nothing else, at least Eli will be very upset. After all, he has been working here for 18 years, and he has certain feelings.
"Well, that's all, I should leave." After drinking, Severo and Eli said goodbye.
"Goodbye curator, I wish you success this time."
"Goodbye, I will succeed!" Severo strode out of the room, his eyes firm.
Wizard, he will surely find them.
Severo left, Eli had a few drinks, and turned to leave.
Outside the door, here is a noisy bar, a large number of men and women dance on the dance floor, if you see it right, go directly to the room behind the bar.
It would certainly not be allowed elsewhere, but this bar is on Liuying Street.
That's right, this is where the two became friends. Nine years ago, after Eli came out of here, he met Severo, who also just came out, and the two gradually became acquainted with each other.
"Mr. Eli, you have to go!" Before Eli could walk out the door, a brightly dressed woman greeted She is the nightingale here, the woman who manages the place.
"Yeah." Eli nodded.
In the past ten years, the girls here have changed a few times, and he knows many nightingales here.
As for why they would take the initiative to greet Eli, the reason is very simple. If you spend more than a few jintars here every year, they will treat you the same way.
"Then go slowly!" The woman smiled and sent Eli out.
It was already afternoon when we got out of here.
Eli glanced at the sun, turned and headed back home.
It's a bit late to go to the library at this time, so let's take a day off from work.
…
the next day.
It was raining, but I still didn't go to work.
Day three.
Eli goes to the library.
As soon as I walked to the door of the library, I heard the guards chatting.
"Did you know? Curator Severo voluntarily resigned, and a deputy director also left. Coincidentally, a child of a noble family was directly airborne to become the deputy director. You said that this is the king who wants to take over the book. Hall?" One of the guards asked worriedly.
"Who knows?" Another guard shook his head, suddenly seeing Eli from the corner of his eye.
"Hello, Mr. Eli!" The two guards immediately stopped talking and said respectfully.
As the students of the deputy director, Eli and the others are very familiar.
"Well, don't gossip!" Eli nodded and walked into the house, but the guard's words were circling in his mind.
The nobles airborne the deputy curator, and so fast, this is most likely the work of the king.
It's only been one day, can't you stand it?
Eli shook his head, ready to talk to the teacher.
