In Xin Ye's Apartment

"Nicol Dao!", Xin Ye says and thinks something.
"Yes. What should we do? Should we find him?", Li Hua asks.
"Finding him! But it's not easy.", Xin Ye says.
Li Hua nods her head. Xin Ye finished her meal. Li Hua waits for her to finish so they can discuss after getting free.
Li Hua gets a notification on her phone. She checks it.
[At Sunday we will go to the remaining libraries.] - Yi Chen messages to Li Hua.
[Okay.] - Li Hua replies.
"Are you free at Sunday! I mean you will not go anywhere right.", Li Hua asks.
"No. I'm free.", Xin Ye replies.
"We will search in remaining libraries. And then I have decided that we will find my grandfather's old friend Nicol Dao.", Li Hua says.
"Fine. I'm ready.", Xin Ye replies.
Li Hua gets up and she hugs her friend. Then she leaves the apartment.
Xin Ye folds her arms and thinks. She will try her best to find Chronofang because she believes in it. But still she is a bit confused that what if she won't be able to find it. All her hard work will go waste.

InLibrary
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Li Hua, Xin Ye, Yi Chen and Mu Yang are in a library. It's seventh library in which they are searching the book.
Xin Ye gets tired and she leans on a bookshelf.
"What happened? You are tired.", Mu Yang says.
"Yes. Are we going to find it or not?", Xin Ye asks.
"Of course!", Mu Yang replies and shows something to her.
Xin Ye comes near Mu Yang and looks at the book which is in his hand. The cover is plain and it's not like she saw in her dream. It's looking very normal book.
"Are you sure?", Xin Ye asks.
"I am sure! You can change my name of it will turn fake. And it's the only book which we find in this oldest library.", Mu Yang says confidently.
"Who wrote it?", Xin Ye asks.
"There is no name of the writer.", Mu Yang replies.
"It's very strange that there is no name of the writer in it.", Xin Ye says.
"Guys! Talk slowly.", Li Hua says while coming there.
Yi Chen comes there too. He is holding Li Hua's purse but he is proud that he is helping her girlfriend. They all sit in a bench.
"Guys! Nicol Dao who is a Taiwanese person stole my grandfather's book. They both were friends but he betrayed my father. He can have the clue. How about we find him?", Li Hua asks.
"Does your grandfather know where he is?", Mu Yang asks.
"No! He doesn't have any idea. My grandfather only told me few things which I have told to you.", Li Hua says.
They all discuss slowly for a moment. When they realize that they shouldn't discuss there then they get up from their seat. They hide the book and take it out from the library.

Xin Ye opens the door and everyone comes inside the building. She locks the door and they come into the hall.
Mu Yang keeps the book on the table. He starts reading it. Yi Chen looks at the book and reads it. The book is full of puzzles. Everything is written in a codes form which is very difficult to be solved.
"How we are going to solve it? It needs an expert.", Li Hua says.
"I can do it. Keep patience.", Yi Chen says.
Yi Chen grabs the book and tries to solve the puzzles. It's puzzle related to the place of Chronofang. If they can solve it then they will reach to its correct place.
Yi Chen narrows his eyes and all his concentration goes to the book. He doesn't even blink his eyes. Everyone looks at him with a hope.
For half an hour Yi Chen reads and gets only few solutions but still no one is connected. He gives up and takes a step aside to give chance to others.
"I am done with it...", Yi Chen says ans holds his forehead.
Li Hua holds the book and she also tries to solve it. She has more patience. She sits politely with all the concentration on it. After reading few pages it gets easy for her to solve few things. She notes them down on a notebook.
But the next pages gets more difficult. Li Hua starts messing her own hairs with her fingers while reading the book. She leans back and pushes the book in the middle of the table.
"I can't do it.", Li Hua says finally giving up in that book.
"I will try.", Xin Ye says with a confidence. She stretches her fingers and reads the book from the first page.
Xin Ye looks at the drawings which are drawn in it and then she tries to solve every step of the location.
Xin Ye gets tired after sometime. Her head aches and she also gives up.
"Only an expert can do it.", Xin Ye says. She holds a waterbottle and drinks water.
Mu Yang takes a notebook on front of himself and reads the book. Also he writes down all the details in it.
"Wow!", Yi Chen says and wraps one arm around Mu Yang's shoulder.
Mu Yang still focuses on the book and he solved the puzzle in two hours. Also he tells the details to his friends and the meaning of every puzzle. In the last page something is written there.
"Reverse the wheel of time. Fangs that devour souls, open the gate of fate! We have to say this when we will go near the Chronofang.", Mu Yang says.
"Bro! You are genius. It seems like you have read that book earlier!", Yi Chen says.
"If I would have read it earlier then why I would hide it from you.", Mu Yang says and grins.
"Right. Thanks.", Xin Ye says.
"So what about tomorrow. We will go tomorrow to the Chongqing!", Mu Yang says.
"But it was in the south right!", Xin Ye says.
"I don't know guys. Whatever my grandfather told me I told you... Now you decide where to go.", Li Hua says.
Li Hua thinks about her office because she can't take leave too early. Yi Chen has to see his restaurant for a few days.
"What happened? Why you all the quiet? Don't you want to go tomorrow?", Mu Yang asks.
"I just got a job that's why I can't take leave. I need to be give my best presentation in front of my boss.", Li Hua says.
"I have important work at my restaurant so tomorrow is impossible. But we can go the next Sunday.", Yi Chen says.
