On the campus in the early morning, sunlight filtered through the tall tree tops, casting golden streams onto the ground, creating a colorful picture. After the turmoil of a night raid, the Academy of Esoterics appeared to have returned to its usual calm on the surface, but a faint sense of fear could be seen in everyone's eyes.
Lin Mengmeng walked into the library alone. Her steps were light and hesitant, as if each step was struggling with inner anxiety and unease. The quiet and scholarly atmosphere of the library provided her with a temporary refuge, allowing her to escape momentarily from the pressures of reality.
Her gaze wandered aimlessly among the bookshelves, like a little deer searching for a way out. She was not only seeking knowledge in the books, but also a kind of spiritual solace, an answer that would help her understand this chaotic world. Since the last night raid suffered by the academy, her inner longing to understand the true nature of that mysterious organization had become even more urgent.
As Lin Mengmeng flipped through the books aimlessly, an old book lay quietly in the corner of the bookshelf, as if waiting for someone's discovery. The cover of the book was marked by the passage of time, with faded golden patterns on the deep brown cover, exuding a mysterious and ancient aura. Lin Mengmeng was drawn to the book, reaching out her hand to lightly touch the spine, feeling the weight of its history.
She carefully opened the book, and the pages made a soft rustling sound, as if narrating the secrets of the past. Lin Mengmeng's eyes gradually immersed themselves in the pages, where she discovered many mysterious stories about the Esoteric, as well as various information related to the secretive organization.
As Lin Mengmeng continued reading, she became increasingly intrigued by a figure named Zhou Xiongwu. The name was unfamiliar to her, but the book provided an unusually detailed description of him. Zhou Xiongwu, a prominent figure in the Esoteric world, seemed to have intricate connections with the mysterious organization. The book depicted him as enigmatic, with elusive whereabouts, but every appearance of his always caused a great stir.
Lin Mengmeng couldn't help but feel a hint of doubt in her heart: Is this Zhou Xiongwu a friend or a foe? What is his connection to the academy's nighttime attack? Her fingertips lightly slid across the yellowed pages of the book, and with each turn, her brow furrowed deeper. She felt as if she were getting closer to a major secret, but with it came more confusion and unease.
Lin Mengmeng bit her lip, filled with struggle and contradiction. Once she unveiled this mysterious veil, it could lead to even more dangerous things. But at the same time, as a student of the Academy of Esoterics, how could she turn a blind eye to these matters?
Just as Lin Mengmeng was lost in thought, the library door suddenly swung open, and a gust of wind accompanied by the laughter of several students shattered the tranquility of the library. Lin Mengmeng hastily closed her book and held it tightly to her chest. A hint of fear flashed in her eyes, as if she was afraid of being caught doing something. She quickly retreated to a corner of the library, seeking a secluded place to settle herself and the mysterious book.
Hidden in the shadows of the bookshelves, Lin Mengmeng struggled to calm her rapid breathing. She observed the newly arrived students, who seemed not to have noticed her. In this Academy of Esoterics, Lin Mengmeng always tried to make herself inconspicuous, like an invisible person. Her heartbeat gradually calmed, but the book in her hand remained tightly gripped, as if it were her only support.
She murmured softly, "Zhou Xiongwu, who are you really? What is your relationship with that organization?"
Just as Lin Mengmeng was lost in her thoughts, a librarian walked over and asked softly, "Do you need any help, student?"
Lin Mengmeng was startled by the sudden voice and quickly shook her head, "No, no need, thank you." Her voice was so small that it was almost inaudible, and then she lowered her head, trying to avoid the other person's gaze.
The administrator glanced at her, showing a hint of concern, but ultimately left. Lin Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief. She knew she needed to find the answers quickly and find a safe place to carefully study this book.
She quickly left the library, her mind filled with various speculations about Zhou Xiongwu and the mysterious organization. On this sunny morning, Lin Mengmeng's heart was shrouded in a faint shadow.
Lin Mengmeng hurriedly found Jiang Hanting and told him about this discovery. Jiang Hanting took the book, his brows furrowed, and a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes: "Zhou Xiongwu, we have never heard of this person before. It seems we need to conduct a more in-depth investigation on him."
Lin Mengmeng nodded, her voice tinged with a hint of unease: "Can we really find the connection between him and this organization? It all seems very complicated."
Jiang Hanting took a deep breath, his attitude resolute: "No matter how complicated, we cannot give up. Only by finding the truth can we thoroughly put an end to all of this."
Lin Mengmeng looked at Jiang Hanting with admiration and trust in her eyes. She knew that under Jiang Hanting's leadership, they would find a solution to the problem. She nodded slightly, filled with determination in her heart: "I will do everything I can to help you, Senior Jiang."
Jiang Hanting flipped through the books, his face occasionally showing a look of concentration and contemplation. His fingers lightly glided over the yellowed pages, as if searching for a crucial clue.
"This Zhou Xiongwu, his whereabouts have always been very mysterious, never appearing in public," Jiang Hanting said, his tone carrying a hint of calmness. "But according to the records in this book, he seems to be involved in several Esoteric events. These events all point to one possibility - he may be the mastermind behind this organization."
Lin Mengmeng nervously bites her lower lip: "So you're saying that we may be facing a very dangerous enemy right now."
Jiang Hanting closes the book, stands up, and his gaze is firm: "Indeed. But no matter how powerful the opponent is, we cannot back down. We must protect the academy and everyone here."
His words revealed an unquestionable determination, which made Lin Mengmeng feel a little relieved. Even in the face of the unknown and danger, with Jiang Hanting there, she believed they could find a way to solve the problem.
Lin Mengmeng whispered, "How should we start? There's too little information about Zhou Xiongwu."
Jiang Hanting thought for a moment and then said, "First, we need to confirm Zhou Xiongwu's identity and background. Then, we can track his movements through his past activities. Perhaps we can find some clues from his previous actions."
Lin Mengmeng nodded in agreement, "Let's start now. Maybe the library has other information that can help us."
The two began a thorough search in the library, flipping through book after book on esoteric history and events. Lin Mengmeng's gaze was focused as she carefully turned each page, afraid of missing any detail.
Jiang Hanting, on the other hand, remained calm and rational, occasionally jotting down important information. His eyes revealed determination and wisdom.
"Here is a description about Zhou Xiongwu who appeared in a large-scale Esoteric event a few years ago," said Lin Mengmeng, pointing to a passage of text.
Jiang Hanting leaned over to look, a thoughtful expression on his face. "This event seems to be directly related to him. Perhaps we can start from here."
Lin Mengmeng looked nervous: "But it's been so many years, how do we find his whereabouts?"
Jiang Hanting looked at her, his tone firm: "We can start by investigating the victims and witnesses of this incident, maybe we can find some clues. In addition, we can also inquire with some senior professors at the college to see if they know more information."
Lin Mengmeng nodded, "Okay, I understand. We must find him as soon as possible."
Although her face showed determination, there was a hint of unease in her eyes. Jiang Hanting noticed her worry and gently said to her, "Don't worry. We will definitely find the answer."
Lin Mengmeng looked at Jiang Hanting and felt the confidence and support he gave her. She took a deep breath, refocused, and continued her research work.
As time passed, they gradually gathered more information about Zhou Xiongwu. Each discovery was like a small clue unraveling the mystery, slowly piecing together a more complete picture.
Night falls again, and the library of the Academy of Esoterics is still brightly lit. Lin Mengmeng and Jiang Hanting are still there, buried in piles of books, their figures appearing particularly focused in the dim light.
"Look here, this passage mentions that Zhou Xiongwu once appeared in a very secretive Esoteric research project," Lin Mengmeng points to a passage on the page, her voice carrying a hint of surprise.
Jiang Hanting gazed at the text, a hint of contemplation crossing his face: "This research project... we need to find more information about it. This may be the key to unveiling Zhou Xiongwu's mystery."
Lin Mengmeng nodded in agreement, her face showing a determined expression: "We should act quickly. This research project may be related to the academy, and we can search for clues in the academy's archives."
"We'll start tomorrow," Jiang Hanting responded decisively.
Lin Mengmeng rubbed her eyes wearily, feeling a bit tired. She glanced at Jiang Hanting, who was still focused on reading, and couldn't help but smile slightly. "You're really hardworking, Senior Jiang."
Jiang Hanting lifted his head and glanced at her, his face showing seriousness: "In this matter, we cannot have the slightest slack. And, with you here, I feel more motivated."
Lin Mengmeng's face blushed, she lowered her head and responded softly: "Me too, with Senior Jiang here, I don't feel so scared."
They smiled at each other, and their trust and understanding of each other were strengthened in this moment.
As the night grew late, the lights in the library gradually dimmed, leaving the two of them in the dimness.
