Everyone knows that yesterday, due to a tiger-like creature infiltrating the Jianghai City Prison, a large number of star beasts were released, causing significant unrest and resulting in many casualties and property losses for the citizens of Jianghai City.

Because of the shortage of staff in some positions, the library has to transfer a batch of employees, and the list is on the big screen.

But don't worry, the positions I've chosen for you are all very good, better than the library, not worse.

As for the management areas with missing personnel, others will take over.

Additionally, we will install a batch of surveillance cameras outside the library, and I will assign some administrators to be responsible for them.

Ye Xiao glanced at the list on the big screen, which mainly included the second and third floors, possibly because these floors were more relaxed.

But his name was not on the list, which was quite fortunate.

Although he can still borrow books from the library when he goes to other positions, it's not as convenient as being a library administrator, where he can read as many books as he wants and even read during work hours.

After the morning meeting, Manager Yang Zhengyi began to arrange the personnel transfer.

He divided the staff into several groups, sending those who should go to other positions to their respective positions and those who should return to their own positions back to their positions.

The administrators on the second and third floors who did not leave would temporarily manage more areas of their colleagues who were transferred, until new people are assigned to fill the gaps.

Ye Xiao was also assigned an additional area.

This was a good thing for Ye Xiao.

Because he could now read books in the assigned area during work hours.

Just as he was about to leave, Manager Yang called him back:

"Ye Xiao, wait a moment."

Ye Xiao stopped and turned to look at Manager Yang.

"Is there something?"

"Before you go to work, Gu Hai didn't come this morning, and his phone is off, so I can't contact him. I'm worried he might have encountered something yesterday. You have the best relationship with him, so go find him."

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I understand."

He walked out of the library, where the continent and buildings that had been destroyed were almost completely repaired, making the city look brand new.

It's probably because martial artists and star beasts are more likely to damage the city, so the building materials technology in this world is quite advanced, with various quick-drying materials that are both useful and cheap.

Several colleagues had already started installing the surveillance cameras, possibly because the librarian wanted to investigate who the super expert was.

Unfortunately, when a grandmaster uses their power, it disrupts the surrounding magnetic field, affecting any electronic equipment. Even if you install the best surveillance, what good would it do?

"Gu Hai went to get a student ID yesterday but ran away halfway. He most likely went to find a woman.

This guy, even if he doesn't die under the claws of a star beast, he will eventually die on a woman's belly."

Just as he walked out of the library, Ye Xiao's phone rang.

Seeing the familiar number, his face darkened.

"Hello, Brother Lu."

"Xiao Ye, your son has been caught again, and this time it's even worse. Come over as soon as possible."

"I understand."

Ye Xiao sighed slightly and went to the Jiangcheng Guard Team again.

...

"Sir, I'm almost sixty-six, and he still takes advantage of me. How can I live? I won't have the face to see my wife. You must do something for me."

...

The guard team's hall was as noisy as usual, with all sorts of bizarre incidents happening frequently.

Ye Xiao found Gu Hai at Old Lu's post. This time, he looked relatively decent, with just a lipstick mark on his collar and a palm print on his face, but his clothes were still in good condition.

Ye Xiao glared at him angrily, and Gu Hai lowered his head, smiling sheepishly.

Following the old routine, Ye Xiao gave Old Lu another stack of red paper.

"Brother Lu, thank you for your trouble."

Old Lu frowned.

"Xiao Ye, you can't keep doing this. Once or twice, I can do you a favor, but if it happens too often, I can't help you."

Ye Xiao nodded.

"Alright, let's take him and go. Don't do it again next time."

The two thanked him and left the guard team, heading back to the library.

Gu Hai hurriedly apologized.

"Old Ye, I really didn't expect that during the star beast riot, the guard team would still have people to catch this."

Ye Xiao said angrily:

"Usually, you don't miss any chance to go. You go, and you always get caught! I'm telling you, this is the last time. If you get caught again, don't come to me. I can't afford to lose face."

"Hehehe, don't worry, I have experience now. I won't get caught next time.

But yesterday, it wasn't entirely my fault. I was waiting for someone near the university, and I got tired of standing, so I leaned against a Volkswagen and put a bottle of green tea I just bought on the hood. Suddenly, a pretty girl came over and asked if I wanted to play.

Such a good opportunity, how could I let it go?"

Ye Xiao ignored him and, after returning to the library, he calmed down and immediately went to the third floor B area to start reading.

After the star beast riot, he gained a deeper understanding of the dangers of this world. He couldn't be too laid-back and needed to become as strong as possible.

He immediately began to study the heart method.

The heart method and the cultivation method are the same, both involving the circulation of the method or heart method in the body's meridians to attract spiritual energy, continuously refining the body and the soul to enhance one's cultivation.

However, the cultivation method mainly focuses on enhancing attack release, while the heart method quickly repairs the spiritual energy consumed during battles.

Choosing a heart method would allow him to quickly replenish the spiritual energy consumed by his ultimate moves.

After becoming a grandmaster, his reading speed had increased significantly.

Originally, in two hours, he could read at most twenty to thirty cultivation methods, but now he could read nearly two hundred cultivation methods.

Out of the two hundred heart methods, Ye Xiao selected two origin heart methods, adding to the three he already had, giving him a total of five origin heart methods.

But his divine soul golden book did not light up, indicating that it was not yet time to fuse them.

However, Ye Xiao was not in a hurry. With the addition of three basic origin heart methods, his speed of absorbing and replenishing spiritual energy had slightly increased.

Moreover, he found three origin heart methods in less than two hundred books this morning. At this rate, he estimated that he would gather the required origin heart methods for fusion and upgrade in no more than two days.

Feeling satisfied.

Duang~!

The clock rang again, signaling it was time for lunch.

Just as Ye Xiao closed his book and looked up, he saw Gu Hai staring at him intently from a distance.

Seeing that Ye Xiao had noticed him, Gu Hai walked over and said in a low voice:

"Old Lu, you're really deep. I didn't expect this from you!"

This made Ye Xiao's heart skip a beat. Could it be that his fast reading speed had been exposed?
