Traveling Frog: Burning Fruit at the Start

After sending Nico Robin away, Liu Xia was still a little confused.

Unexpectedly, the traveling frog’s friend visiting him would turn out to be someone who has been around the world.

If it goes to a few more worlds, will there be more visitors?

This will only depend on what happens next.

At this time, Liu Xia needed to solve a problem immediately.

How to explain to the old man in front of him, who smelled of alcohol and had angry eyes, where the book he took had gone.

"Boy, where did you take my book?"

Just now, after Liu Xia chose to give the world history in his hand to Nico Robin, the old man who was sleeping soundly at the front desk flashed in front of him as if he had been awakened.

Looking at this drunken old man with a normal aura, Liu Xia felt horrified in her heart.

Because, he felt a more terrifying aura from the old man than the leader of Dawn.

Although he didn't leak anything, Liu Xia still keenly captured it with his system and his domineering power.

Faced with such a master, Liu Xia naturally did not dare to neglect, and quickly clasped his fists with both hands and saluted the old man.

"I'm sorry, senior, I accidentally damaged the book just now."

"It was indeed an unintentional mistake. Do you think I can make up for it?"

Seeing Liu Xia's respectful attitude, the old man was stunned.

You know, he has been looking after the library all year round, and among the students who come and go, basically few of them will say anything nice to him, an 'ordinary person'.

Liu Xia's answer really surprised him.

"You damaged the books, either you pay 100 intermediate spiritual stones, or you clean the library."

When the old man gave this condition, he thought more that Liu Xia would choose to give him money to finish the job.

But Liu Xia didn't follow his ideas and replied directly. "I choose to clean the library."

"Well, young people are just honest, and 100 intermediate spiritual stones are not many..."

The old man suddenly stopped talking to himself and asked a question with a surprised look on his face.

"You...you said...cleaning the library?"

Liu Xia ignored the old man's eyes that almost fell out of his head and nodded silently.

This old man looks like a hidden BOSS at first glance. Many novels describe the adventures the protagonist encounters, and don’t they all begin with the encounter with the hidden BOSS?

I can be considered a seasoned internet writer, so I am quite familiar with this kind of plot.

"Uh...then...then go get it now!"

"The tools are over there."

As he spoke, the old man pointed to a corner not far away.

Then, he walked back to the front desk and continued to fall asleep.

After taking the tools, Liu Xia did not disturb the old man anymore and started his cleaning journey on his own.

Liu Xia swept through the bookshelves one by one. He carefully cleaned each row of books to make them spotless.

In the process, he also discovered many interesting books.

For example, "Postpartum Care of the Fierce Beast", "The Story I Have to Tell with the Fierce Beast"...

The names of these books were very attractive. After Liu Xia flipped through a few pages, he realized that he had been deceived.

"Everyone is a clickbait, and if you don't look at them, they are not Chinese."

After flipping through a few books, Liu Xia couldn't help but complain.

Because there are too many books in the library.

It wasn't until sunset that Liu Xia had cleaned up many half of the books.

"Boy, I have to get off work. Come back tomorrow!"

At this time, the old man was completely sober. The rosy face just now has returned to its original state.

Liu Xia heard the sound, turned around and stretched hard, "I haven't cleaned for a long time, I'm really tired."

The old man glared at him angrily, and then kicked him out of the library.

"Remember, come back tomorrow!"

boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man immediately closed the door, turned around and walked in.

Liu Xia smiled helplessly and thought to himself.

This old man really has a personality.

The next day.

Liu Xia arrived at the library door at half past eight. After waiting for half an hour, the library door slowly opened.

The old man walked out of the door and was startled when he saw Liu Xia already standing at the door.

"Why are you so early?"

Liu Xia smiled lightly, "Because there is still a lot of work to be done, so I want to start early."

"Then come in!"

The old man turned around and went in, then ignored Liu Xia.

With yesterday's experience, Liu Xia skillfully picked up the tools and started the unfinished work yesterday.

It's three poles high in the sun and it's noon.

The old man's irritable voice interrupted Liu Xia's work.

"time to eat!"

Unexpectedly, this old man would ask him to eat. Liu Xia was very happy. It seemed that his wave of favor was effective.

There were five or six plates of dishes on a small square table in the library. The mouth-watering aroma made Liu Xia swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Old man, your food is pretty good!"

Liu Xia picked up a mouthful of vegetables, put it into his mouth and chewed it, a look of satisfaction suddenly appeared on his face.

"Old man, my craftsmanship is pretty good!"

Seeing Liu Xia's intoxicated look, the old man felt proud.

One old and one young, just one chopstick and one chopstick, and all the dishes were finished in a short time.

Liu Xia, who was satisfied with her meal, sat back on the chair and rubbed her belly happily.

"I haven't had such delicious food in a long time. Old man, you are so awesome!"

"I'm not bragging. When it comes to eating, no one in the school can beat me!" The old man looked proud.

After the meal, the relationship between the two instantly accelerated and became much closer.

At sunset, Liu Xia finally finished cleaning all the books.

Seeing the old man preparing to drive people away, he hurriedly spoke out.

"Old man, I ate your meal at noon today. How about I cook you a meal in the evening too."

"Oh? You can also cook?"

The old man deliberately looked Liu Xia up and down with disbelief.

In his opinion, an awakened person like Liu Xia would spend all his time practicing. How could he be good at cooking?

Liu Xia ignored his disbelief and asked him directly where the kitchen was.

Realizing that Liu Xia was indeed not joking, the old man pointed in a direction, "The kitchen is over there."

Then, I heard a clanking sound coming from the kitchen, and then a scent wafted out of the kitchen.

The old man couldn't help but sniff it hard, it smelled so good!

Just by the smell, the old man could be sure that Liu Xia was really good at cooking.

Soon, Liu Xia brought four dishes and one soup out of the kitchen.

"Time is limited, so I won't bother with big dishes. Old man, just eat something simple."

Looking at the fragrant dishes in front of him, the old man made an unsatisfying sound in his throat.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat, and put it in his mouth.

After chewing twice, his expression was suddenly startled.

"Yum! So delicious!"

After saying that, regardless of the image, he stretched his chopsticks towards the other three plates.

Liu Xia looked at him eating happily, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
