When they walked into the office, Ryan spotted Professor Ken standing by his desk, fiddling with the wooden mantis on the table.
"Hello, sir," Ryan said, walking ahead. The others also called out greetings before heading to their separate desks.
"Hello," Professor Ken looked up with a smile. "I brought some of the papers you wanted. These are just the ones I've found for now." He pointed to the stack of papers now sitting on his table. "I still need to look through my artic to find the rest. If I don't have them, I'll ask a few friends. They should turn up."
Ryan excitedly started looking through them. They were titles written during the age of typewriters, and there weren't many digitized copies of them, or not that he could find. He had looked through multiple libraries and archives, both offline and online, but only found references or abstracts. He eventually gave up and went to ask Professor Ken, who promised to help him.
