    It was a regular Tuesday morning for the couple, John and Lisa. They were enjoying their breakfast when they heard a knock on the door. Lisa went to open the door while John followed curiously.

    Standing at the door was a middle-aged woman. She introduced herself as Martha, the new librarian. John and Lisa were confused as their apartment was now a library.

    Martha began to arrange books on the shelves. The couple, still in shock, watched in disbelief as their living room was transformed into a public library.

    John, in a panic, ran outside to find their landlord. He stopped every passerby, asking about the sudden transformation of their apartment.

    A group of men, who seemed to be neighbors, approached John. They calmly tried to reason with him, but John was too frantic to listen.

    The men eventually subdued John and brought him back to the apartment. Inside, Lisa was in a state of shock, unable to comprehend the situation.

    Lisa tried to intervene as they brought John inside but was held back. The couple was now detained in their own home, which was now a library.

    As they sat in their home-turned-library, the couple realized something was off about their neighbors. They seemed to have tactical experience, as if they were not ordinary people.

    John and Lisa decided to investigate. They began to examine the books, looking for clues. The books were all decades old, some even centuries.

    Among the books, they found a hidden compartment. Inside was a leather-bound book with no title. Intrigued, they began to read it.
