Chapter 42: The strange behavior of the patriarch
With a quick flip through, the books on the bookshelf were read one by one. In just over an hour, Mi Xiaoan has already read more than ten books, and the progress of the Power of the Moon mission has soared to 335.
At this moment, the system's light curtain suddenly flashed frequently. Mi Xiaoan understood and immediately put the book he was reading back on the bookshelf, picked up the one he had read before and pretended to read it.
"Ann, I've read a few books." There were footsteps at the door, and Madeleine walked in.
"Oh, including yesterday's half, there are already two books. This is the third book." Mi Xiaoan turned his head and raised the book in his hand to answer.
"Don't look so anxiously." Madeline said with concern: "You are still young, what if you hurt your eyes?"
"It's okay, grandma, I'll pay attention." Mi Xiaoan smiled and said nonchalantly. Then she turned around and continued reading, pretending to be serious.
When Madeline saw this, she said no more and just looked at Mi Xiaoan quietly from behind.
Feeling the unexplained gaze, Mi Xiaoan was a little nervous, fearing that what he had said earlier aroused the suspicion of the patriarch's grandma. Fortunately, it only took a moment before Madeleine gently turned her gaze to another bookshelf.
She moved lightly, rummaged on the bookshelf a few times, pulled out a few books, put them in her hands and read them for a while, then turned to look at Mi Xiaoan, as if she was afraid that she would see them.
About two minutes later, Madeline picked out enough books, held them in her arms, and glanced at Mi Xiaoan again. Then he walked out quietly without saying anything.
Hearing Madeleine's footsteps receding, Mi Xiaoan glanced back and asked, "System, what book did Grandma Patriarch take just now? Have you seen it?"
"I saw it." The system replied: "They are some craft books. They include the elf gardening and elf brewing you read the day before yesterday."
"Oh" Mi Xiaoan nodded. I glanced outside again and saw Madeleine's mysterious look. I was a little confused: Could it be that what I said earlier worked, but why was she so sneaky?
Although he was very curious in his heart, Mi Xiaoan still turned around and continued to flip through the book. After all, you can't go over and ask Madeleine anymore. Looking at her like that, it's obvious that she wants to do something secret. It would be rude to go directly and ask. Thinking like this, Mi Xiaoan stopped moving for the time being and lowered his head to do his own thing seriously.
Next, it's business as usual. Madeleine would still occasionally come in to look for books, but with systematic reminders, Mi Xiaoan would immediately pretend to be a good baby. After Madeleine went out, she revealed her true colors and began to turn around like crazy again.
"Tip: Invalid information. Current task progress: 504."
"Hi~ Nothing again." With a system prompt, Mi Xiaoan drooped his eyelids, put the book in his hand back on the bookshelf, and sighed softly.
It is now about two o'clock in the afternoon, and so far, she has read more than fifty books, which is about one-third of the entire bookshelf. The mission progress of the Power of the Moon has also reached half.
However, after reading more than fifty books, Mi Xiaoan can clearly feel that the probability of information overlap is increasing. The information that can be collected in many books is not even 05.
Not only that, but there are also seven or eight books, all of which are filled with invalid information. I really can’t imagine what I would do if I flipped through dozens of books and all the information overlapped.
After twisting his sore neck, Mi Xiaoan stood up and walked out the door. She was hungry and wanted to eat something.
In the shade under the tree, Madeleine was still flipping through the book carefully, writing something on the paper next to her from time to time. Mi Xiaoan went to the elf tree to get some fruits, then turned around, looked at Madeline, thought for a while, and walked over quietly.
"Grandma, the patriarch." Mi Xiaoan called out softly and said, "You haven't come here after eating, so please have one."
She said, reaching out and handing over a piece of fruit.
"Ah, An," Madeline was looking attentively. When she heard Mi Xiaoan's voice, she was a little startled. She covered the paper with writing on the table with her arm covertly, and said with a chuckle: "I'm not very hungry yet. You put it here first."
"Okay" Mi Xiaoan responded. He put the fruit in his hand on the table, thought about it, took another one from his arms and put it on it, and said, "Grandma, please be busy first, don't forget to eat. I'll continue to read."
As she spoke, she turned around and walked towards the cabin.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. Take a break and watch again." Madeleine ordered from behind.
"Yeah, I know." Mi Xiaoan responded casually, waved his hand without looking back, and got into the wooden house.
As soon as he returned to the room, Mi Xiaoan pressed it against the wall, looked outside the window, and then looked back.
"Hey system." She called softly and asked, "Did you see what the patriarch grandma wrote just now?"
"I saw it" the system replied: "Wait a moment."
When Mi Xiaoan was reading, Madeline would come in every once in a while, chat with her, and then go out with a few books.
Mi Xiaoan lay by the door and read secretly. She took these books and flipped them outside a few times before closing them. Occasionally, I would write down some words on the paper next to them, but I didn’t know what they meant.
Did what I said earlier have any effect?
She was really curious, and her heart was scratching like a cat's claws. Therefore, when she was walking to Madeleine just now, she asked the system to read what Madeleine had written.
The system's light curtain flickered, and a piece of paper quickly appeared inside. Mi Xiaoan quickly looked up.
"Elf Gardening Elf Martial Arts Elf" she whispered the words on the paper, her eyes suddenly became strange: "Hey, why are they all book titles?"
Listed on this paper are some book titles. Mi Xiaoan has also read some of them. Mi Xiaoan was a little confused as to why Madeline was writing these things.
Alas, I thought it was related to what I said before. At worst, it should be something interesting. Unexpectedly, it was some book titles. I really didn't understand it and was a little disappointed.
She thought for a while, but couldn't think of any special meaning to this thing, so she had no choice but to let the system put away the light curtain, then lowered her head and continued reading.
Time passes, the sun sets in the west
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Mi Xiaoan stood up tremblingly and put the last book back on the shelf. Now looking at the three bookshelves in the room, she was no longer as excited as she was at the beginning, but instead a little scared.
Alas, she would never have imagined that flipping through books would be so tiring. There were more than a hundred books, and her hands became weak just by flipping through them. She almost struggled to finish flipping through the last few dozen books.
