A librarian wearing black and white identification cards walks over with his roommate, with whom he exchanged a secret code. So the question is, can the roommate still be trusted?
Out of caution, Cheng Zhu did not immediately contact Mary, but instead started sending her messages in front of her.
"Are you still conscious? Have you heard the library's announcement? There are no stars in the sky. Bring the librarian with you, or I'll call the police."
After sending this message, Cheng Zhu immediately received a reply: "???"
As for Mary in front of her, she maintained a heartbroken expression throughout, as if betrayed by a faithless man, seemingly unfazed by how outrageous her actions were, making no other move. So, if the person replying to her message was the real Mary, then what kind of strange creature was this "Mary" brought by the librarian with the black and white ID?
This... isn't written in the library rules either?
Cheng Zhu felt a headache coming on; this scene was completely unexpected. According to the rules of the Slot Library, Cheng Zhu thought she had already filled in most of the possibilities, but she didn't expect there to be an "unexpected surprise."
The first four rules of the library were not much different from those of a normal library, but things started to get strange from the fifth rule onwards.
5. All librarians in this library wear green uniforms and color identification badges that match their appearance. All librarian badges are color; there are no black-and-white badges. If you encounter a librarian with a black-and-white badge, please do not attempt to communicate with them.
This is exactly the situation Cheng Zhu is currently facing.
However, I never expected that I could get a "buy one get one free" deal, which included a dangerous, high-quality fake roommate.
As originally anticipated, aside from the librarian's problem, Cheng Zhu thought he would only encounter nonsensical scenes and a suddenly appearing archive, so it didn't seem very dangerous.
However, to her utter surprise, the world of strange rules presented her with a special situation.
Cheng Zhu kept his mouth shut, looked at the two people who he didn't know were human, and after a brief thought, decided to trust the librarian and walked around them towards the front desk.
"Huh? Christine, where are you going?"
Seeing that Cheng Zhu was about to escape, "Mary" behind her immediately reached out her hand in her direction. At the same time, the librarian with the black and white ID card also tried to block Cheng Zhu's movements with his body.
Cheng Zhu didn't look back at "Mary," but kept his eyes fixed on the librarian blocking his way.
"Your friend is calling you, aren't you going to turn around and look at her? Don't be so cold..." Before the librarian could finish speaking, Cheng Zhu made his move, grabbing his arm and giving the librarian an over-the-shoulder throw.
boom!
The librarian, who was slammed to the ground, was filled with disbelief. He never expected that this seemingly quiet girl would act so decisively.
After clearing the obstacle, Cheng Zhu didn't waste any more words. He stepped over the man's body and left the spot in a few strides, heading towards the library's front desk. After confirming that the other party was still the normal-colored Herman, he pointed in the direction he had come from and said, "There's a librarian with black and white ID cards over there, and he's brought a strange person who claims to be my roommate, but when I sent my roommate a message, she didn't receive it at all."
Herman glanced over Cheng Zhu's back, then suddenly pulled up the surveillance footage from earlier.
The surveillance footage showed that there was no one in front of Cheng Zhu.
Her expression was serious and tense, as if she had seen something extremely dangerous. Then she suddenly moved, and after a brief silence, she suddenly ran to the library's front desk.
It's clear from the complete video recording that no librarian or "Mary" ever appeared in front of Cheng Zhu; it was all as if it were her hallucination. However, Herman didn't dismiss Cheng Zhu's claims but instead inquired earnestly about the details: "You mean that fake librarian was with your friend?"
"Yes, I received her message at the library, so I believed she was coming. I never expected something like this to happen." Cheng Zhu tried her best to make her expression and words sound excited, but her deep voice proved that she hadn't forgotten the library rules.
3. Please keep quiet inside the library. Do not make loud noises or engage in any conversations with other students.
This is why Cheng Zhu felt there was something wrong with "Mary" from the very beginning.
Of course, Cheng Zhu also considered the possibility that Mary might not know the library rules, so he gave her enough leeway and did not leave decisively at the beginning. Instead, he chose to send Mary a message first to see her reaction before making a judgment.
Sure enough, the other party was not the real Mary.
Considering the rule prohibits students from communicating with librarians who have black and white ID cards, Cheng Zhu suspected that communicating with this derivative character "Mary" might also cause trouble, so he decisively went to Herman at the front desk.
"That's good."
Hermann nodded, and without doing anything, the library's visuals began to play:
"Special Notice: A new rule has been added to the library rules."
"Special Notice: A new rule has been added to the library rules."
"Special Notice: A new rule has been added to the library rules."
The broadcast was repeated three times, attracting enough student attention before the previous rules were repeated, along with the eighth rule:
8. If a librarian with a black-and-white ID photo approaches you with your friend, please verify their identity without speaking to them. If they are not your friend, try to distance yourself from them and seek help from other librarians with color ID photos.
