Bulwark of Light

Chapter 40 The Lost Book

In the library, there was silence.

Large rows of bookshelves, piled up in a sea of blazing sunlight.

There is a thick copy of “Logical Research on the Constants of Electron Physics” on the table. Halfway through, a monocle stands on the page, and the chain presses the page and acts as a bookmark.

The seat on the original seat was draped in a grey blazer.

The owner of the coat stands in front of the huge bookshelf, basking in the quiet sunlight.

The deep sea links the whole world and data sharing.

In the current paper book reading room, there is no who will come.

Cui Zhongcheng took the two books that were linked together on the shelf.

He was startled.

After taking the book, a pair of sly eyes with a hint of laughter appeared in the vacant position of the bookshelf.

“It is said that there are 1.5 million books in the library of Dateng Public School. If you read one book a day, it will take you four thousand years to read it. But it only takes three seconds to enter the deep sea into the library.” Bookshelf On the other side, the old man’s voice was extremely low, as if he was talking to himself, “It’s ironic. Humans have worked so hard to develop a culture for thousands of years, and it only takes a few seconds for machines to digest everything.”

Having said this, he raised his head and asked with a smile: “There is no one who has come to a place like the library. In order to maintain order and give human beings the last respect, AI is only responsible for inputting, not guiding… …In this kind of place, it shouldn’t be simple to find a book you want, right?”

“Mister Zhou, you probably don’t read books very often.”

Cui Zhongchengqing Lightly said: “Each book is divided into categories, you just need to follow the map to find a book. It’s very easy to find a book.”

“Oh oh oh…that’s it. I really don’t read books often.”

Zhou Jiren apologetically laughed, “But in this era, the deep sea is enough, except for diehards who are greedy for the afterglow of the old era, who would come to such a place to read paper books, you say… Mr. Cui?”

Cui Zhongcheng glanced at his watch.

He asked calmly: “You came to me for something?”

“There is no major event…” Mister Shu sincerely said with a smile: “Gu Shen’s review At the beginning, my entourage has nothing to do and nowhere to go, so I just wanted to take a stroll in the Academy… It’s a coincidence that I met you here.”

The two said to each other The names are respected.

are referred to as “you”.

“This is my alma mater. I haven’t been back for a long time, so I just came back to have a look.” Cui Zhongcheng said softly: “A long time ago, it was quiet here…but it’s not the same as it is now.”

“That must have been twenty years ago, right? At that time, the deep sea was not linked to Five Continents, and there was no such developed technology…” Mister Shu made no secret of his irony, said with a slight smile: “We are getting stronger and stronger, which is a good thing. Just talking about the development of Eastern Continent in recent years…Mr. Zhao has contributed greatly. He has made Dadu a city as full of brilliance as Nagano. “

Cui Zhongzhong frowned.

“To be honest, I didn’t expect that he would agree to issue an amnesty order for a little-known teenager.” Mister Shu said softly with a smile: “I originally wanted to get out of this matter. It’s okay if he doesn’t agree, when the time comes I’ll go and ask a big man in Nagano.”

“Isn’t it a good thing that someone agrees?” Cui Zhongcheng sighed and said, “Go to Nagano to ask for help. How embarrassing, the thirst can’t be quenched from far away, and it’s another matter if you can ask for it.”

“What face does someone of my age care about?”

Zhou Ji The person’s smile little by little disappeared, he stared at the other party and said: “Since I agree to the amnesty, why should I send such a review team… This is the person I want to save even if I don’t even want to face, ugly words. In the front, no matter what the final review result is, I have to keep Gu Shen comprehensive.”

Cui Zhongcheng rubbed his fingers on the pages of the book.

“You still don’t understand?”

He looked at the old man and said seriously, “It’s because I saw your position…Old Zhao did it so decisively. Decide, issue an amnesty order, and dispatch an audit team…”

“The last person you were so determined to take away was Nan Jin from the metropolitan area, right? Compared with her, Gu Shen is just a A poor child with no father or mother, and a mediocre background.” Mr. Cui whispered: “Old Zhao believes in your vision, so immediately gave the amnesty order, and he also wanted to take a look. Who the hell is this child named Gu Shen, who sent this review team.”

He showed a humble and gentle smile when he said this.

“I think…you should be able to understand Old Zhao’s intentions?”

“Everyone in the parliament now has a headache over the dispute over the decree of awakening. At this point, everyone seems to be unable to accept the price of their own failure… This tug-of-war is about to decide the result.”

“At this time, the slightest deviation may cause huge consequences. Distortion.” Cui Zhongcheng stretched out two fingers and rubbed slowly, “A butterfly far away in Western Continent, with a flash of wings, may cause a storm in Dadu.”

“Maybe this butterfly Not in Western Continent, but in Central Plains, North Fortress…” Mr. Cui paused and said solemnly: “But in any case, most of them can’t stand a bigger storm.”

Zhou Jiren’s expression Seriously, there is nothing more to say.

He just stared silently at Cui Zhongcheng who was opposite the bookshelf. The sun shone through, and the noon glow should have been reflected on his body, but for some reason, it seemed to be covered with a faint shadow.

“By the way…”

“The proposal to issue an amnesty order and dispatch a review team… I made the proposal.” Cui Zhongcheng said softly: “Old Zhao immediately agreed. So this time it’s me who came to Dateng.”

He stared at Zhou Jiren.

“…I have nothing to say.”

The old man was still serious, and said calmly: “There is no Mr. Cui, there are others, as long as there are Amnesty, there will be a review team, I still understand the truth.”

Cui Zhongcheng nodded.

He no longer paid attention to Zhou Jiren, but walked in the direction of where he came, holding the book each minding their own business, the sun had shifted to an angle, and the original seat was no longer covered by rays of light. Shrouded, but immersed in a slightly darker shade.

Two steps.

“One more thing…”

Mister Shu spoke again, stopping Cui Zhongcheng.

“en?”

He was frowned, and his face was slightly sideways, and he couldn’t see his face clearly through the book.

“It’s about the small talk.”

Mister Shu’s voice was soft and slow, “What you said is really a simple and efficient way, but there are The book…is seriously damaged, or because the title is missing and so on, it has not been entered into the library by AI. Such a book…is there a way to find it?”

“…”

p>

Cui Zhongcheng was silent for a long time, seemingly lost in thought.

“It’s just luck.”

Mr. Cui said softly: “You have to believe that as long as the book is still there, it will be found one day.”

This chapter is an interesting one.

It may not take that long to wait until the end of “Barrier of Light”. When the world view is almost spread out, after reading this chapter for the second time, everyone will find different fun.
