Before Ye Lan left, Angela asked him, "What do you plan to do next?"
"Mmm, first I'll go give Mrs. Angelica's husband the good news, then maybe think of a way to open an office? Basically, just slowly make my way towards the Library."
Ye Lan thought for a moment and continued, "If anything urgent happens, just pull me back with an invitation like today."
"I understand. Well then, until next time..."
Angela nodded at the 20% transparent Ye Lan. By the time she looked at him again, he had vanished before her eyes as if erased by an eraser, taking Luna with him.
Now, only Angela and Mrs. Angelica were left in the Library, looking at each other in silence.
After a moment of silence, Angela suddenly spoke to Mrs. Angelica. "The Library won't be opening for a few more days. you can slowly familiarize yourself with the environment and your work."
"As for your child... she was supposed to be born in a month. But the power of the Library's treatment has changed that time. I imagine you will be giving birth to her in a little while."
"Eh?! You said in a little while..."
Before Angelica could finish her question, a pain in her lower abdomen cut her off. Although it was her first time giving birth, she could still feel the signs of her child's imminent arrival from the continuous contractions.
In this intense pain, Angelica subconsciously lay down on the spot. She looked at Angela, who seemed to know nothing about human reproduction, and asked for her help. "Angela, you have to help me..."
"How? You must guide me yourself. I am completely ignorant of this," Angela got up from behind the librarian's desk and squatted down beside Angelica.
"First, help me find a bed..."
The moment Angelica finished speaking, her body was already lying on a bed. In this Library made of the "Light of Possibility," as long as there were books with relevant content, the things in the books could be materialized.
Although Angela was clueless about this subject, in the vast Library, finding a book with memories of this was quite easy. Coupled with the precautions Angelica herself had learned from the hospital, a smooth delivery was not difficult at all.
...
...
"To think we'd be returned to the spot where we signed the invitation. That's a little different from the part of the plot I know."
Ye Lan looked at his surroundings, which were still a pile of ruins. But unlike before they signed the invitation, he and Luna could no longer hear the disturbing piano music.
"The piano music has stopped. It seems the Pianist has been dealt with."
Ye Lan took Luna's hand and looked in the direction where the Pianist had been. The twisted pianist, who had grown almost as tall as a building, had now lost its head, and its arms were also gone.
Luna tilted her head and looked at Ye Lan. "Wow, did Uncle Roland do that?"
"Although he himself doesn't have the title of a Color Fixer, when he's using Angelica's equipment, he has the power of one. Let's go, we'll try our luck at his house."
The two retrieved their luggage from the alley entrance, then wound their way through the rubble of the collapsed buildings and walked back to Roland and Angelica's house.
At this time, a room on the second floor of the detached house was still lit. It seemed that Roland, having searched for Angelica in vain, had returned home.
He knocked on the door. After a long while, they heard slow footsteps coming from the second floor towards the front door. Just from the sound of the footsteps, Ye Lan and Luna could feel Roland's current grief and despair.
It seemed that although he hadn't seen Angelica's body with his own eyes, he probably still thought she had died because of the Pianist. But that was fine. Ye Lan was here now to deliver the good news that Mrs. Angelica was safe.
However, when the door opened, the Roland before them instantly put on an angry face. The man, with red-rimmed eyes and reeking of alcohol, shouted at him furiously:
"Damn you, you liar! If it weren't for your commission, Olivier wouldn't have asked me to go to that damn Backstreet 25, and Angelica... Angelica wouldn't have died because of it!"
"Wait, wait..."
But before Ye Lan could say the more important things, Roland interrupted him. "Are you still trying to deceive me with your glib tongue? Did you think I didn't know? The news of L Wing's fall is already out!"
"You damn lying beast, get out! Get out!!!"
The door was slammed shut in front of Ye Lan and Luna, and Roland's desperate and angry face was hidden by the door, no longer visible.
At this point, how could Ye Lan not understand? It must have been the Violet Tear who had played him. She had pretended to be him, issued a commission to the Hana Association in the name of a high-ranking employee of L Corp's main branch, and used her ability to watch the possibilities of different timelines to ensure that the commission would definitely be given to Olivier.
Then, while Olivier was requesting Roland's help, she came to District 9 to assassinate Angelica. If not for him, a transmigrator not present in other timelines, protecting her, Angelica's body would have been thrown into the Distorted Pianist's flesh-and-blood piano and turned into parts.
And when Roland returned, the Violet Tear's machinations were not even over. The news of L Wing's fall from the Head was conveniently learned by Roland at just the right time, completely thwarting his attempt to tell Roland about Angelica's situation.
"I was really played by that terrifying old woman..."
Ye Lan sighed and pulled Luna away from District 9. He wasn't in a hurry. After all, Angelica was now in the Library, which was practically Angela's personal E.G.O. Even the Violet Tear couldn't confirm what was happening inside before entering.
As long as she still wanted to carry out the plan from the original story, Roland would definitely be thrown into the Library by the Violet Tear. And at that time... the one receiving him wouldn't be Angela, but his wife!
"So what do we do now?" Luna asked Ye Lan a timely and appropriate question.
"Of course, we follow the original plan. First, find a way to open a Fixer office, then keep an eye on Roland before he enters the Library, so he doesn't cause too much carnage."
"Eh, that sounds so troublesome..."
Luna sighed, mimicking Ye Lan, and pulled her small suitcase along as she followed him towards the exit of District 9.
