Chapter 191 The undercurrent of missing my breath (26)
The meal was eaten in silence.
Lu Lishuang was enjoying the meal.
After lunch, Lu Jian returned to the dormitory, hung her school uniform jacket on the hook on the side of the closet, and then sat on the bed.
A pop-up window appeared on the smart brain, saying that she had unread messages.
Lu Jian was very familiar with that avatar, it was Mingying.
Mingying: I went to see the Little Mermaid yesterday afternoon.
The message was a few minutes ago.
Jianjian: [blink.jpg]
Mingying: The little mermaid just ignores me!
Mingying: [A fist swinging randomly.jpg]
Mingying: The little mermaid ignored me, and then I told him that he had something to say, and then he paid attention to me.
Lu Jian waited for her to continue, but Ming Ying kept her in suspense.
Mingying: Guess what he said?
Jianjian: Maybe you will be angry with me?
Mingying laughed twice on the other end of the phone, but didn't dare to raise her voice too loudly, after all, it was during work hours.
Mingying: I miss you so much.
Seeing this, the girl's fingers paused, her eyelashes trembled like a butterfly flapping its wings, and her pupils contracted for a moment.
Mingying: That’s what he said.
Jianjian: Yeah.
She got it.
Lu Jian turned off the smart computer, picked up the badge that Li Yu gave her, and stared at it for a few seconds.
Finally decided to go to sleep first.
-
When I woke up from a nap, it was exactly two o'clock. The afternoon classes were not tight and they didn't start until three-thirty.
Lu Jian packed up her things, said goodbye to her roommate, and followed the signposts in the college all the way to the library.
The library has seven floors, and the door opened automatically in front of her. The administrator at the counter was a bionic robot.
The robot greeted her good afternoon, and Lu Jian handed over the badge.
The robot smiled and scanned it, then returned it, "Elevator No. 1 is open for you, please enter."
The elevator door opened in a semicircle, and Lu Jian stepped in, selecting the seventh floor.
The feeling of weightlessness came, but it only lasted for four or five seconds and then stopped.
The elevator stopped steadily on the seventh floor.
Each floor of the library is in a circular shape. Looking down from the seventh floor while holding the handrail, one can see that there are quite a few students studying on each floor.
The higher you go, the fewer people there are. By the seventh floor, there is no one left.
At the elevator entrance, Lu Jian saw a touch-screen machine about one meter high.
The holographic interface pops up.
--What can I help you?
"I want to find books about the ocean." She replied calmly to the machine, while her eyes scanned the books closest to her.
——In row Z-6, row 21. I wish you a pleasant reading.
Each bookshelf is numbered, so it was not difficult for Lu Jian to find bookshelf No. 6 in row Z-21.
Ning Qi said that the answer to the task would be here.
Lu Jian started from the first book on the far left, took it down, and started flipping through it.
She didn't read it in great detail, but she was able to scan the general content at a moderate pace.
After seeing the seventh book, the first row is almost over.
##
The slanting shadow from the skylight turned half a circle, and when she reacted, she found that the sky outside had darkened.
Lu Jian's face was blank for a while.
Oh my god, it's over!
Skipped class on the first day of school!
She turned on her smart brain and found a lot of voice calls from her male tutor.
Instructor: Lu Jian!
Instructor: Class!!
Instructor: Classmate? ?
Instructor: Are you okay?
Instructor: If you have nothing to say, just say something.
Tutor: Student, have you been to the library?
Instructor: Although there is not much valuable knowledge in the first class, you need to ask for leave in advance if you do not want to attend the class.
Instructor: Remember to message me back.
The tutor never sent her any message afterwards.
Lu Jian replied with a message saying “I am indeed in the library” and then expressed his apologies.
After listening to her, the tutor didn't say anything and told her about the library's access control.
The library will close at nine o'clock in the evening, so let her remember to come out and not be locked in.
After reading it, Lu Jian turned off the smart brain.
The time is now around six in the afternoon.
"I missed dinner time." She murmured, "I'll buy a midnight snack tonight."
She flipped through the pages of the book in her hand, reading many previous descriptions of the ocean and marine life.
She found nothing.
Putting the book back, she reached for the next one.
The next book was just halfway taken out when suddenly a photo fell out of it.
Lu Jian pulled the book out completely, and did not forget to bend down and pick up the photos on the ground.
The back of the photo was facing up, and there were two flamboyant Chinese characters written on the back with a carbon pen.
——Sea Spirit.
As her hand turned the photo over, a blurry picture invaded her pupils.
The photo showed a blurry figure, half of the body was naked above the water, and the long hair was so blurred that the color could not be seen.
From the angle, it looks like a candid photo.
Behind him was a waning moon and a large area of nebulae covering the sky.
The bridge of her nose was high, and the deep red color of her lips could be vaguely seen. The hair on her forehead covered her eyes, and it seemed as if every strand of hair was glowing.
The sea sparkled, reflecting him and the moon in a breathtakingly beautiful way.
Lu Jian discovered that there was no date on the photo, so she looked at it over and over again and realized that it was a mermaid.
It's very simple, just see the gills.
But why Hai Ling?
She placed the photo on the table and opened the book.
The name of this book is "Legends Buried Under the Sea".
What is written in the book is different from any book I have seen before, and it is more like the beginning of a novel.
As we all know, novels can be summed up in two words: nonsense.
So my first reaction when I read this book was also a sense of fantasy.
——Do you know Hai Ling?
——Sea spirits have human bodies and fish tails. They have looks that no one in the world can rival. Their voices can interfere with magnetic fields, and their songs are melodious and can bewitch people, not inferior to sirens.
——Sea spirits are conceived directly by the ocean, not by any living organisms, but they love to choose their own mothers, live there, and then grow by absorbing nutrients from the mothers.
——They will mark their partners and use their unique marks to obtain their partners' location and mood.
——Sea spirits are not mermaids. They have stronger adaptability. They have a long lifespan, but it only takes them a hundred years to reach adulthood.
—Did you first intuitively recognize the Sea Spirit?
——But you still know very little.
Before this, there had never been any mention of "sea spirits".
It is stored in a corner of the library, inconspicuous at all.
She read the book carefully and turned to the last page. The content on the page made her press the cover with more force.
Ning Qi sat on her shoulders and also read the end of the book.
——When the ocean perishes, the sea spirits walking on land will represent the ocean.
——If you want to redeem him...
—Let him return to the ocean.
