Co-Research with Chief Librarian ~Part Fourteen~/Story

## Introduction

 I've been waiting. This time around, I'd like you to sort out book returns. 待っていたぞ｡今回の仕事は本の返却作業を頼みたい

 In other words, it's just organization work. 要するに配架作業というやつだな

 As the season progresses, more people have been coming to use the library.
As they say, fall is the best season for reading. 秋も深まってきたので図書館の利用者が増えている
いわゆる読書の秋というやつだ

 That's some nonsense.
The contents are the same no matter what season, nyo? なにが読書の秋だ
いつ読んでも本の内容にかわりはニャイだろ

 Ah well, so long as people read, the reason doesn't matter.
We're now having several book returns piling up that need sorting out.
It's some tedious work, but I'll leave it to you. まあ､どの様な理由であれ読書をするのはいいことだ
返却された本が整理されずかなり溜まっている
骨が折れる仕事だろうがよろしく頼むぞ

## Everyone's Autumn

 So many! How could they let them pile up this much? 多い!　それにしたってなんでこんなに整理されてないんだよ

 Aka, less talking and more working.
You're better at this kind of work than me. アカ､口を動かさず体を動かしてください
こういう仕事は僕よりも得意でしょう

 "Just reorganize these book returns" they said, but I didn't know it was this much!
Ahh, I'm hungry. だって､返却された本を元に戻すだけっていったって量がこれじゃあな
ああー､腹減った

 Hahaha, rather than reading season, it's eating season for Aka here. ははは､アカは読書の秋より食欲の秋だな

 Whatever the season, moving these many books would make me hungry either way.
Let's hurry and finish this up so we can go eat. こんだけ体を動かしたら秋じゃなくても腹が減るよ
早く終わらせて飯にしようぜ

 I want to finish quickly and check out this new pair of glasses I just bought too. 僕だって早く終わらせて､新しく買った眼鏡の確認をしたいのに

 Did you buy more again...? Those glasses you buy tend to be very, uh, *original*. また買ったのか｡アオの買う眼鏡はなんというか独創的なものが多いからな

 I would prefer 'artistic'. Autumn is the season for enjoying art and all. 芸術的と言ってください｡そう考えると僕の秋は芸術の秋ですね

 Then, what do you like to do for the season, Chief? 館長は秋といえばなんの秋だ？

 Autumn, huh...I'm a sports man myself.
It's a good time for outdoors activities. 秋か……俺にとってはスポーツの秋だな
この時期に外で素振りをすると気持ちがいいぞ

 You do it every day, though, not just autumn.
Hmm...let's quit the chit-chat and finish up the work.
The day will pass us by before we know it. 館長のそれは秋関係なく毎日しているじゃないですか
はあ……無駄話は止めて早く作業に取り掛かりましょう
このままでは日が暮れてしまいますよ

## Cat's Autumn

 Is your work going well? 作業は順調か？

\*appears\*

 Oh! Speaking of, we were just talking about this.
What do you like to do in the autumn season, Cat? お!　ネコに聞きたいことがあるんだ
ネコは秋といえば何を思い浮かべる？

 ...I was wondering what you were about to ask, and it's just nonsense. ……なにを聞いてくるかと思えば馬鹿馬鹿しい

 Haha, well, just humor him. まあ､そう言わずに答えるぐらいいいだろ

 You can just say the first thing that comes to mind. それとも思いつかないだけとか

 I just generally go by my own pace no meowtter the season.
...That said, I usually feel more sleepy around this time of year. 吾輩はいつの時期であってもかわりはしニャイ｡吾輩のペースで生きるのみだ
……とはいえこの時期はいつもより眠くなる気がする

 So it's just sleeping season for you, Cat. じゃあ､ネコの秋は睡眠の秋ということだな

 If I have to say so, yes. 強いて言えばそうなるな

 Though, isn't he always sleeping anyway? でも､ネコっていつでも寝てるイメージがあるけどな

 What a rude fellow.
Unlike you guys, I actually do my work properly. Now quit your chit-chatting and get back to work. 失礼なやつだな
お前たちと違ってちゃんと仕事をしている｡喋ってニャイでちゃんと仕事をしろ

## Early Afternoon in the Autumn

 Ah, I'm wiped out. つ、疲れた

 Seriously. 右に同じく疲れました

 You guys seriously have no physical strength. この程度で疲れるなんて、お前達は体力がないな

 You just have too much, Chief.
The Librarian looks tired too. 館長の体力がありすぎるだけだ
司書も疲れた顔をしているぞ

 Hmm... let's take a break, then.
I had the dining hall make some snacks.
They should be done around now, so Aka, Ao, would you mind fetching them? フム……みんな疲れているようだし休憩にするか
食堂にお菓子を作ってもらうよう頼んでおいた
今頃出来上がっているだろうから、アカ、アオ、取りに行ってくれないか

 Sure thing! I'm off! やった！ いってくる！

\*leaves\*

 ...Aka only puts in effort when it's time to eat. ……アカは本当に食べることに関しては行動力がありますね

\*leaves\*

 I have snacks for you too, Cat. You like this one right? ネコには猫用のお菓子を用意したぞ。これ好きだったろ

 Hm, nyot too bad. ふん、悪くはニャイな

\*returns\*

 I'm back! ただいま！

\*returns\*

 Why are you running... なぜ走るんですか……

 Well, they said eat while it's hot!
Today's snack are baked apples.
Let's dig in while they're still warm. だって、冷めないうちに食べてって言ってたし
ほら、今日のおやつは焼きりんごだぞ
熱い内に早く食ベようぜ

 Settle down, kids.
Good work today. Rest is also an essential part of work. Have some snacks and take a short break.
Though, after this break, we still have a little more to push through. やれやれ少し落ち着いたらどうだ
さて、君もお疲れさん。休憩も仕事の一環だ。しっかりおやつを食べて休んでくれ
ただ、休んだ後でもうひと頑張りしてもらうぞ
