Reborn as a Supervisor

When Roland woke up, he found that the sky had fallen and his original job was gone.

A "blue-haired tomboy" appeared out of nowhere and not only completed her original job, but also helped Angela with her work.

From every aspect, he is a perfect substitute for himself, perfectly replacing Roland's position in the library.

Now even the heartless Roland was panicked. He couldn't just throw away the "iron rice bowl" he had worked so hard to find.

So he made a decision that went against his ancestors: he wanted to involution!

He used to work 4 hours a day, but now he doubled it to 8 hours. He didn't believe that he could not beat the blue-haired boy who had just joined the library.

As expected, Roland was no match for the experienced book hunter who had worked diligently in the library for many years.

This situation did not last for a few days, because Chen Fan quickly called Roland for a talk.

"Roland, you are also a veteran of the library. You should understand some things even if I don't tell you."

“We only have so much work in the library, the staff are already very motivated, and the jobs are in short supply.”

"I won't say anything if you slack off during work hours, but at least your performance is up to standard with the help of your employees."

"But the recent situation..."

Chen Fan paused for a few seconds, picked up the cup on the table, took a sip of water and continued.

"You should also know that your ability is not as good as that of the book hunter. You should understand that those who are more capable should do more work even if I don't tell you."

"But...I..."

Roland wanted to fight for himself, but when he saw Chen Fan's determined eyes, he closed his mouth again and couldn't say a word.

"I called you here today to discuss this matter...Come in."

Chen Fan greeted her, and the Book Hunter pushed the door open and stood in front of the two of them. She had been waiting at the door without knowing when.

"This is Roland, your senior. Do I need to introduce him to you?"

The book hunter nodded and said that she was of course very familiar with the famous closer, Mr. Darksilence.

"so what have you thought of?"

Chen Fan was not only asking Roland, he was also asking the book hunter.

"Boss, I..."

"Boss, I want to improve so badly!"

Roland's eyes gradually dimmed, and his head, which had been unable to lift up, lowered a few points. The book hunter was like a college student who had just joined the company, with his eyes full of enthusiasm.

"Roland, your juniors think highly of you. How about taking over the job?"

"I understand...just let her come."

"Well then, Book Hunter, you will take over all of Roland's work from now on. Keep up the good work!"

After completing the appointment, the book hunter left the supervisor's office on the grounds of being busy with work, leaving enough space for Roland and Chen Fan.

"What do you want to say?"

Chen Fan knew without even looking that Roland had something to say, but he just hadn't thought it through yet.

"Director, I have worked so hard for the library for so long. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard, right? My work has been taken away by her, so I..."

"You can retire now."

Chen Fan calmly gave the answer that Roland least wanted to hear: he was unemployed.

"I know what you want to say. The library will not forget you."

"Thank you for your efforts, then..."

Roland left the supervisor's office in a distraught state, looking like a lost dog.

After Roland left, the book hunter somehow came back and saw Roland when she came over.

"Manager, Roland..."

"Nothing, he's retired."

"You fired him?"

"What are you talking about? He is retired. Do you understand?"

The book hunter thought for a while before he understood what Chen Fan meant. Roland was not abandoned, but he could lie down and rest assured.

"But...does he know what retirement means?"

"..."

Chen Fan remained silent, he was thinking.

Is there any difference between "retirement" and "dismissal" in this city? In the Lobotomy Corporation, there is no difference.

"Forget it. He's just sitting around doing nothing anyway. It's no different from before."

Chen Fan felt that with Roland's heartless personality, he would be able to adjust himself even if he didn't remind him, so he simply didn't tell him about it.

……

The first thing Roland did after his "retirement" was to go find "Green Algae Head" for a drink. He wanted to find a place to have a good drink.

As a result, "Green Algae Head" fell from the art floor of the library to the technology floor due to being drunk, and is now lying in bed.

Since he couldn't find someone to get drunk with, he had to find someone to talk to about his troubles, and Cheese was a good candidate.

As a result, when he arrived at the social level, he found that Book Hunter and Cheese were chatting happily. As an outsider, he could not join in at all, so he had to leave in shame.

Roland returned to his room. Angelica asked him why he didn't go to work today. He would be punished if he was caught by Chen Fan.

Roland was silent for a long time, and then was pulled out of bed by Angelica and thrown outside.

"Look at what you have become now. Just sleep at the door tonight and reflect on yourself!"

(Feeling sorry for Roland for half a second)

Roland got up from the ground. No one knew what he was thinking. He just kept walking and walking until he could not walk anymore.

He looked up and found that he had arrived at the place where the Seed of Light was launched. From here he could overlook the scenery outside the library, which was quite suitable for skydiving.

Roland had never learned skydiving, nor had he ever done it, but he felt that he could... Just then, he fell into memories.

At some point an old man came to his side. He was leaning on a cane and looked like a well-educated gentleman.

"At this point... is this your choice?"

"Let go of everything in the past."

"Stay in this world and become an empty shell."

Ain probably couldn't understand it either. Carmen felt sorry for Roland, so she kicked herself down and asked herself to help Roland.

Obviously Carmen could have gone up by herself, at most she could have asked Roland to "twist" a little, but what did it mean that she kicked herself down... Anyway, he was now forced to do the job.

"Shouldn't the matter be resolved? Where did you come from?"

Roland looked at the guy in front of him. He seemed to have seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't tell where.

"I'm just an old man who doesn't matter."

"Just wanted to give you a little reminder."

"Do you really think you can cut off this cause and effect?"

“Even if the light spreads successfully, countless people will continue to climb up regardless of the cost.”

"Just by touching the feathers of the wing, you think you can break the laws of the city."

"Until the numerous crimes I committed eventually backfired, everything I held tightly in my hands melted into ashes, and my body and mind decayed along with it..."

“Just like us now.”

……

There was no rebellion by the assistant librarians, because there was no chance of rebellion.

However, the author's mod pool is deeper than you think... Next is "Roland's Redemption", the final liberation battle of the general layer!
