Chapter 349: Chaos (Part II)
The feet on the land of the Empire, the crowded crowd in front of the airport, and the loud noise reassured Kasia and Dyar a lot. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Booked a ticket to Manoma three days later, Dyar didn't understand it. Kasia just smiled and didn't respond positively.
"It's free for three days, and you can just walk around. The air here is different from Brino, and it no longer smells of gunsmoke. The laws of the empire are definitely binding, and you can get used to it first. Hurriedly dropping this sentence, Kasia left the place and time of the meeting, and left Dya alone. Remembering something important, he got into a limousine and went elsewhere in the city.
Dyer watched the limousine move away, then turned and disappeared into the silhouette of the building, standing still not knowing how to express her feelings. Such an attitude will be directly removed from your own team. She thought helplessly, looking around, there are diamond-shaped high-rise buildings on the left, occupying a vast area, in front of the square, erecting a steel frame, and pulling up colorful advertising blessings - goods discounts, clothes half price.
Without hesitation, she walked over.
Kasia was not familiar with the city, so he bought a cheap travel guide book at the airport, and the color pages were mixed and matched with untidy content, and various attractions and places worth going to were marked, and the emphasis was bold and black, but at a glance, he knew that he had collected money to list the things, and he had no reference value.
"Please come here to the nearest large library, preferably the national one. Kasia told the driver where he was, and exhaled as he watched the moving scenery outside.
The driver nodded "um", the control was precise in place, and the speed was quickly raised. The city began to be reflected in Kasia's head through her eyes, but nothing was recorded. By the time the limousine came to a stop on the side of the road, next to the imposing library, Kasia had not yet felt the fluidity of time.
The buildings that belonged to the empire were well funded. While the district managers are misappropriating funds for their own personal use, they do not forget to do what they should do. Kasia felt that this was also their self-awareness. In the pyramid structure of the empire, there are too many people in the unified class, and many positions are not irreplaceable in the huge population base and assembly line production model. They are afraid, because they are absolutely replaceable, and if there is a little mistake, the Empire's way of dealing with it is not to repair it, but to replace it directly, because the reserves are sufficient.
Coupled with the aristocratic binding class deep into the core of the empire, those who managed to climb up from the bottom through various means were even more careless and cautious in doing things. This psychology can hold up a corrupt empire, and this kind of psychology accounts for a large part of the credit.
Walking in with emotion, the silence inside is completely in line with the standards of a library. But it's not that all the people inside are quiet, it's that there aren't many people inside at all. There are few in the eye, like a dinner plate licked by a dog, shiny.
To the right of the door is a row of tables and chairs for reading, neatly arranged as if they had been cemented with glue, and cleaned cleanly without obvious dust.
The front desk is on the left, with a long row, which can accommodate many people at the same time. When I first designed it, I probably had a hunch that as a national library, there would be a lot of people coming and going. But the actual results did not meet the original intention of the designers.
There are several pens neatly placed on the service desk, and next to them is a pile of books.
"Illustrated Book of Paleontology", "History of Biological Evolution", "From Fossils to Ores", 、、、、etc. At the back of the book is a buried head, hair tied in a single ponytail, and a rubber band of rainbow colors. It can be seen that the exposed tender back of the neck, a few strands of hair are not tied properly, and they fall on it.
Looking at the clothes on the body, it should be the staff here. But I don't know why, she's the only one here, holding a book and looking at it, completely immersed in the dense small words on it.
After thinking about it for a while, Kasia knocked on the counter anyway.
The head paused for a moment, then lifted itself and looked at Kasia mechanically. Not a very beautiful face, with glasses, very cheap kind. This is the result of a comparison between the pair of glasses that Kasia and Jeterine usually wear.
"How are you 、、、?" I don't know why the girl's tone is a question sentence. There really aren't many people coming here.
"Hello. Kasia replied, drawing a pen in his hand, "Go in and find some information, can you borrow the differential machine here? Kasia explained.
"Yes, yes. "The girl doesn't look big, she's still in school, maybe about the same age as herself. She explained to Kasia, pointing to the side, "Right there, if you need to find a book, just check the index." If you have any questions, you can also ask me directly. ”
Kasia nodded in thanks and walked over, silent. The girl buried her head again, her eyes only in the fonts, oblivious to the details. Just remembering something, she suddenly turned her head to look over, and saw Kasia walking step by step towards the query difference machine, as if to make sure that there was indeed a living person in this deserted library.
Of course, I felt the girl's undisguised gaze. Kasia didn't bother, walked over to the difference machine, where there was a typewriter-style keyboard for typing text, and then followed the reading and writing method to type in the name of the place she was going to query. The first knight king Grote once told him the name of the place, where the second generation of holy swords was buried.
In the military school, the information there can be called up and viewed by people with a heart. After failing to find the exact location through books and maps, Kasia decided to go to the libraries of other cities at the convenience of the mission to find the geographical location whose original name had been submerged due to history.
Relying only on the repository of the differential machine and the calculation carry mechanism, the storage capacity is also an average person who can only read less than one ten-thousandth of the amount in his life. With the convenient search method, it is very easy to search for what you want in the repository. The cost is nothing more than the time spent waiting for the calculation to be processed.
After ten or so seconds, something appeared in front of me. It was a panel, something like a sandbox. Relying on the magnetic force generated by the electric current and the colored fine iron powder, combined with the calculation of the difference machine, the result is converted into an easy-to-understand image to be displayed to the searcher.
The font on it is red, followed by a sigh - no relevant information retrieved!
Kasia's body visibly shook, surprise and confusion on his face. This is not the result that should be. I tried to enter the same place name a second time, then pressed the OK button and waited for more than ten seconds of processing time. The iron powder on the panel was pushed down, and the second search result was quickly displayed, still in bright red font.
No information retrieved!
