C8 The Whole Net's Black for Smiling Depression

"Do you see the bookshelf behind you? You must find five books within ten minutes. The names of the books are lined up side by side. You must have a homophone [I like you so much]. If you find it wrong, you have to start over. If you find it wrong, you have to start over again. " The old man explained the mission to them in detail word by word.

"Remember, all of you only have ten minutes!"

Jing Mo and Bai Zi looked at the huge library and felt a bit of pain in their heads.

To find five books in such a huge library was like finding a needle in a haystack.

Bai Zi took a look at the distressed Jing Mo and turned to the old man. "Grandpa, can we discuss before starting the mission?"

The old man looked at the handsome boy and nodded in agreement. It was not a difficult task to begin with.

Bai Zi turned to look at Jing Mo. He subconsciously reached out his hand to hold Jing Mo and pulled him to a place farther away from the old man.

"What's wrong?" Jing Mo looked at him in confusion.

Bai Zi met Jing Mo's eyes and quickly let go of his hand. His eyelashes trembled shyly and said, "Brother Jing, isn't there a book in the library? Let's go to the front desk and borrow it from the receptionist."

Only then did Jing Mo remember this problem. He rarely came to the bookstore, so he didn't remember.

"I'll get some books from there later. You can go and borrow some books. We can talk over the phone." Jing Mo suggested. It would be a waste of time if both of them went down.

Bai Zi thought about it for a while and felt it was right, but...

"Brother Jing, I am looking for books on the second floor." Finding books was a big job. He did not want to give all of them to Brother Jing. He did not forget that Brother Jing did not look very good this morning.

Jing Mo smiled and shook his head helplessly. He held Jing Mo's shoulder and pushed him to the old man. He did not respond to the old man's words, but said to the old man.

"Grandpa, we are ready. You can start the countdown."

The old man took out the timer and glanced at them. "Start!" As he spoke, he pressed the timer.

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zi rushed down the stairs. His speed was so fast that only an afterimage was left.

Jing Mo, on the other hand, was not in a hurry. Instead, he called Bai Zi at the first possible moment. The two of them had just discussed it, and Bai Zi picked up the phone at the first possible moment.

At this time, Jing Mo arrived at the first bookshelf. Bai Zi was also very fast there. Plus, his face looked very likable and he talked softly. He borrowed a book with a few words, but he could not leave the front desk.

As for Bai Zi, he could not go upstairs. Jing Mo did not have any objections.

"Found it! The fourth bookshelf in the second row, the library number is..."

The young man's voice did not sound soft at this moment. Instead, it was clear and powerful. Jing Mo followed the direction he pointed to and came to the bookshelf. He successfully got the first book.

After opening a good book, the following process of searching for books went very smoothly, and during the process of searching for books, Jing Mo didn't dare to be distracted at all. Thus, when he carried the five books and walked in front of the old man, He was also a little unsure if he had surpassed the time limit.

Compared to the beads of sweat that seeped out from Jing Mo's forehead, Bai Zi was still alright, but his face was extremely red.

Jing Mo put down the book and turned to look at him. "What's wrong? Is it hot down there?" Otherwise, why was this child's face so red?

Bai Zi did not dare to meet his gaze. He turned his head to look at the book and explained in a low voice. "Hmm... It's hot down there..."

Although Jing Mo was puzzled, he did not think too much about it. Instead, he looked at the old man. It was time to worry about whether the time was over or not.
