Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 253 Sudden Voice
I don't know if it is to make it more difficult for the "readers", the books in Kisaragi's library are not stored in different categories.

After Louye saw that several books such as "A Dream of Red Mansions", "Guide to Rural Disease Prevention", and "Advanced Mathematics" were arranged in a mess, his idea of ​​searching by category was naturally aborted. up.

Although there is no division according to the type of books, the library has arranged all the bookshelves according to the 26 English letters. The hiding place of several people is exactly in the middle of the No. 27 and No. 28 bookshelves in the W area.

At the beginning, few people were not fully aware of the concept of "millions of books" mentioned in the rules - because when the number reached a certain level, the meaning began to blur, which made it difficult for people to have an intuitive impression .

What really forced them to realize what kind of situation they were in was that after they searched the No. 27 bookshelf, Louye asked inadvertently: "...how many bookshelves are there in District W?"

It's normal for the teenager to have this question, because it took the three of them more than an hour to read through Bookshelf No. 27—thanks to the greatly accelerated reaction speed of the Evolutionary—roughly estimated that there are at least 27 bookshelves on Bookshelf No. 1500. This book, and the rest of the bookshelves looked pretty much the same.

The answer is posted on the "Reader's Guide" on the side of the bookshelf.

After quickly reading the "Reader's Guide", the faces of several people turned pale.

"Under each letter, there are a hundred bookshelves...? Got it wrong?" Lou Qin's expression was the ugliest, and she murmured to herself: "There are 26 letters in total, that is, 2600 bookshelves. Based on 1500 books per shelf... there are close to 400 million books in this library?"

After speaking, she couldn't help but raise her voice slightly, sounding a little sharp.

This is a simple math problem.Even if they don't sleep, it will take 2600 hours to look through all the bookshelves at the speed of retrieving one bookshelf in an hour.

That is 108 days.

Even if the survival numbers of all the people in the library are added together, I am afraid there is no 108...

"No, no, there must be other strategies for this library," Lou Ye stammered, "Finding books one by one is the most stupid way, let's study and see if there are other methods. A way to successfully complete the task.”

With a pale face, Lou Qin paused for a moment before saying, "...to grab?"

The problem is, they don't even know where the other teams are, let alone if they've found the book.

Lou Ye obviously didn't think about it carefully, he was a little dumb when he heard the words, and lowered his head to think desperately.

Now they still have too little information - Lin Sanjiu looked up at Siri not far away.If I could go over and ask her a few questions, it might help my group clear up a lot of confusion.But without thinking about it, the other four teams who don't know where they are at the moment must be focusing their attention on where the librarian is.

The central hall is square, with Siri's office on one side, and a multimedia office area and rows of desks in the middle.On the other side of this open area, there are six-letter bookshelves from "U" to "Z"—a total of 6 bookshelves and 90 books, occupying half of the space in the central hall.

And the four corners of this square hall are the stairs leading to the four branches of the east, west, north and south respectively—since the second floor of the hall part has been emptied, so as long as you go up to the second floor in the branch and look up, you can Get a clear view of the central hall.

It's just that this "seeing" is also limited: because the bookshelves in the central hall are astonishingly high, and the gaps between rows of bookshelves are very small, only one person can pass through; if you stand on the second floor and look down , the situation between the bookshelves was immersed in darkness, and nothing could be seen clearly.

But as long as you walk out from the bookshelf area, you will be seen by several other teams.

Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but feel a little regretful—just now when he was a newcomer, he didn't have time to observe the terrain, and after listening to the rules of borrowing books in his head, a few people got into the bookshelf section of the central hall without thinking carefully. It's very difficult.

Whether it is to find Siri or to find the other four teams, it means that one's own side must first be exposed to the eyes of the four teams of enemies.

For this problem, the few people have no other way at present, so they can only sigh, and continue to check the No. 28 bookshelf in a somewhat dejected way—but the nervousness just now has long since turned into helplessness. "Do as much as you can".

After searching two bookshelves in a row, the night of Kisaragi Station World came again.

Just an hour after the light came in through the glass windows, the entire library was soaked in thick darkness—the tall bookshelves covered most of the faint skylight, not only in the central hall, but because there were no windows in the four branch libraries, Even more so, he fell into a darkness that made people almost suspect that he was blind.

"Don't turn on the lights here at night...?" Lou Qin was also startled by this black method, and asked in a slightly trembling voice. "It's so dark, who dares to use something that illuminates... won't it immediately become a target of public criticism?"

Fortunately, Kisaragi Library didn't let this situation last long.

About a few minutes later, the sound of "cracking" incandescent lamp tubes had just entered the ears, and patches of light were already lit up in front of my eyes almost at the same time-although it was not as bright as day, at least I could see things around me clearly.

The eyes of the Lou brothers and sisters fell on the bookshelf in front of them again, and a bitter look appeared on their faces.

"Alas," Lou Qin Fupi glanced at the books beside her, and patted the bookshelf with her hand: "No. 29 is definitely not there either. Don't read it, the chances are too low."

When she looked up, she found Lin Sanjiu standing there in a daze in front of her, not reading a book, just motionless.The muscles, viscera, fat, and even the blood vessels of her upper body have all grown at this time, and Lou Qin was really shocked when she met her face suddenly.

"Do you also think it's too silly to search one by one?" Lou Qin felt as if she understood what she meant, and sighed. "No way, that's all we can do right now."

To the surprise of the Lou brothers and sisters, the muscular body opened its jaw, and then, a sound came out of her mouth.

——I don't know when, Lin Sanjiu's vocal cords have been shaped.

"No," her voice was cold and smooth, and even when she was reporting bad news, it made people feel that she had a sense of stability like a powerful force.

"Get ready," Lin Sanjiu said lightly, but the sense of urgency that was on the verge of breaking out was still faintly revealed: "...someone is coming."
