It had the same stone shelves and the same one-color books, all the same and identical. Adam was puzzled by the similarity, he wanted to ask again, but now he's infatuated with not doing it and in his young mind his whims were absolute rules.

Adam finally managed to understand the bookshelves a little more. The young man felt as if a great burst of eurekas exploded in his head and a great idea emerged from his young mind: 'The bookshelves are not strict, they are capricious'.

But the pain in Adam's hands snapped him out of his trance, his hands were burning, and some blisters had formed on his palms. Luckily, he knew about the magic of the cave's healing water and was willing to try it to extinguish the pain in his hands. According to the bear, he couldn't put the glue on Adam's hands because he wouldn't be able to tell when his skin would be damaged if they fell asleep.

The bear ran to one of the corners of the bench, after a while he returned to Adam and said:

—You have to do the transaction with the bank shelf and the booklet. Come on, follow me!

Adam followed the bear, dragging the suitcase to one of the corners of the bench, walking awkwardly and cursing the booklets in his heart for not grabbing a closer book to take out on this bench's shelf.

Upon arrival, he found 5 booklets: they seemed to be all white sheep, except one that was smaller than the rest and was black. Without Adam being able to introduce himself, the bear said:

—Let's make the transition, you 5 will help a bookcase during the promotion war of the 4 middle floors in exchange for the suitcase.

Find this and other great novels on the author's preferred platform. Support original creators!

Adam looked at the 5 sheep with all the love in the world, if these booklets were to reject the transition, he believed that he would completely lose his mind and become one of the lunatics who walked these floors.

The black sheep spoke for the group, her voice was quite tender, he gave happiness just hearing her speak and asked:

—Is there really 10 in the suitcase?

—Yes, surprisingly, don't ask any more questions—answered the bear with his hoarse voice—Two for each of you. Do you want them or not?

—Yeeeeees!—The four white sheep shouted in a very tender way.

Adam felt happier, after everything that happened today, at least seeing the cute little booklets talk was a relief to his heart so suffered from it.

—Stop idiots, first we check the contents of the suitcase—Said the black sheep stopping the scream of the other four—What are you waiting for, open it, boy

Adam didn't know what was inside. The bear wouldn't let him open it, so he was very curious to find out that he had been carrying it for so long. But it seemed that these 5 booklets were desperate to get what was inside, so it must be important to them.

Adam put both hands on the suitcase latches:

*Click* The suitcase opened. A horrible smell permeated the air. At a glance, Adam noticed the blood staining the entire lining of the suitcase. Inside the suitcase, 10 mini-humans could be seen stuck next to each other.

Immediately, the black sheep was heard saying:

—Deal, 10 intact, we won the lottery, girls!

—A pleasure—said the bear, very happy to win 10 mushrooms.

Adam was grinning from ear to ear, he had finally gotten not one, but 5 booklets.

The boy did not understand very well why these mini creatures were worth so much, for him, they were a bit disgusting and smelled rotten, but he was glad that these creatures were so valuable for the booklets.
