As Torako spotted the book she wanted to grab, she stopped in place. It was a little bit higher than she expected. She tiptoed to reach the book, and turned to walk away. Then a shelf creaked, and snapped.

Nothing fell down though, and she started to walk away.

Then, from a very top shelf, a book halfway out of its perch fell down front cover first. Torako managed to catch On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured before the hardcover resounded with her face with a dull bumpf.

"Oh. That's cool." Madoka vaguely recalled something about a Nippon Decimal System or a Dewey Decimal System.

"Well I'm probably never going to read any of them. Can you put them back into the system?" Madoka shrugged. They might have been good books, but they simply had a miasmic aura of old about them that Madoka wasn't sure that he was able to stomach. Among them was a translated, annotated copy of Plato's Republic and something with a cover faded to the point where it was simply a field of faded brown fibres.

"I mean they technically still belong to the school."

Best Influence.
The librarian started when he heard the shelves creak, but relaxed when he didn't hear the crash of books on the floor.

"I'll get to them at the end of the day. It's kind of time consuming to enter everything in," Conan said.

He leaned back in his chair, and rolled his right shoulder. One would think that an immunity to physical damage would prevent muscle cramps, but it didn't.

"Do you need help finding anything?" the librarian asked Madoka.

The book fell to the floor with a loud thump, and Torako was left with the lettering embedded into her forehead. She quickly placed the book back onto a random shelf, and picked the book she wanted off the floor, after dropping it from the Darwin to the head. She started on her way back, placing her book on the counter.

"Found it!"

"Nice catch," Madoka spoke with a good-natured grin. He scratched his chin thoughtfully and ended up shrugging at Conan. The boy chuckled. "I don't know if you'd have it, but I was looking for Almost Transparent Blue. It doesn't seem like a book that'd be in here. I guess. It's just one of those days where it'd be nice to wander around. I guess."

He appended that last bit on needlessly. Madoka felt like he couldn't quite put his thoughts into words. "Just sort of... a need to move. Or something. Speaking of, how did you get all the way to Nagashima, sensei?"
