I don’t know if it is to make it more difficult for “readers”, but the books in Kisaragi Library are not stored in categories.
After seeing several books such as "The Lost Dream of Red Mansions", "Rural Disease Prevention Guide" and "Advanced Mathematics" in Lou Ye, all arranged in a mess, his idea of searching by category naturally failed.
.
Although there are no divisions according to the type of books, all the bookshelves in the library are numbered according to the 26 English letters - the hiding place of several people is right between the 27th and 28th bookshelf in the W area.
At the beginning, several people were not fully aware of the concept of "millions of books" mentioned in the rules - because when the number reaches a certain level, the meaning begins to become blurred, making it difficult for people to have an intuitive impression.
.
What really forced them to realize what kind of situation they were in was when Lou Ye accidentally asked after they searched bookshelf No. 27: "...how many bookshelves are there in area W?"
It is normal for the teenager to have this question, because it took the three of them more than an hour to read bookshelf No. 27. This was thanks to the evolution's greatly accelerated reaction speed. It is roughly estimated that there are at least 1,500 people on bookshelf No. 27.
book, and the other bookshelves look similar.
The answer is posted in the "Reader's Guide" on the side of the bookshelf.
After quickly reading the "Reader's Guide", several people's faces turned pale.
"Under each letter, there are a hundred bookshelves...? Are you mistaken?" Lou Qin had the ugliest look on her face. She murmured to herself: "There are 26 letters in total, that is, 2,600 bookshelves.
Calculated based on 1,500 books per shelf...there are close to four million books in this library?"
After talking about it, her voice couldn't help but rise slightly, sounding a bit sharp.
This is a simple math problem. Even if they don't sleep, at the speed of searching one bookshelf in one hour, it will take 2,600 hours to browse all the bookshelves.
That is 108 days.
Even if the survival numbers of everyone in the library were added together, I'm afraid there would be less than 108...
"No, no, there must be other ways to conquer this library," Lou Ye stuttered. "Looking for books one by one in the bookshelves is the stupidest way. Let's do some research and see if there are any other ways.
A way to successfully complete the task.”
Lou Qin had a pale face, paused, and then said: "...Robbing?"
The problem is, they don't even know where the other teams are, let alone whether they have found the book.
Lou Ye obviously didn't think carefully. Hearing the words, he became speechless and lowered his head to think hard.
The information they have now is still too little - Lin Sanjiu raised his head and glanced at Private Day not far away. If he could go over and ask her a few questions, he might be able to help his group clarify a lot of confusion. But there is no need to think about it.
I know that the other four teams, whose current locations are unknown, must be focusing their attention on the location of the librarian.
The central hall is square and square, with private offices on one side and a multimedia office area and rows of desks in the middle. On the other side of this open area are the six letters from "u" to "z"
There are a total of 600 bookshelves with 900,000 books, occupying half of the central hall.
The four corners of this square hall are the stairs leading to the four branch libraries in the east, west, south and north respectively. Since the second floor of the hall is hollowed out, you only need to go up to the second floor in the branch library and take a look.
Have a clear view of the central hall.
But this "seeing" is also limited: because the bookshelves in the central hall are incredibly high, and the gaps between the rows of bookshelves are very small, only one person can pass through; therefore, if you stand on the second floor and look down,
If so, the situation between the bookshelves would be immersed in darkness and nothing could be seen clearly.
But as soon as you walk out of the bookshelf area, you will be surrounded by several other teams.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but feel a little regretful - she had just arrived and had no time to observe the terrain. After listening to the rules for borrowing books, a few people got into the bookshelf section of the central hall without thinking about it. Now they wanted to go out again, but things changed.
It's very difficult.
Whether you are looking for Private Day or the other four teams, it means that you will be exposed to the eyes of the four enemy teams first.
Regarding this problem, several people currently have no other solution, so they can only sigh and continue to check the bookshelf No. 28 with some dejection - but the nervous energy just now turned into helplessness long ago.
"Just try your best."
After searching two bookshelves in succession, night fell once again in the world of Kisaragi Station.
Just one hour after the light came in from the glass window, the entire library was immersed in thick darkness - the tall bookshelves blocked most of the weak skylight. Not only the central hall, but also the four branches had no windows.
He even fell into a darkness that made people almost suspect that he was blind.
"Don't we turn on the lights at night...?" Lou Qin was also shocked by this kind of black magic, and asked angrily with a slightly trembling voice. "It's so dark, who dares to use anything that lights up...
Won’t he become the target of public criticism soon?”
Fortunately, Kisaragi Library did not let this situation last long.
About a few minutes later, as soon as the "pop" sound of the incandescent lamp reached my ears, patches of light 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 the things around me clearly.
The Lou brothers and sisters' eyes fell on the bookshelf in front of them again, and they couldn't help but have a grimace on their faces.
"Alas," Lou Qin Fupi glanced at the books beside him and patted the bookshelf with his hand: "There must be no one on the 29th, so there's no need to look at it. The chance is too low."
When she looked up, she found Lin Sanjiu standing blankly in front of her, not reading a book, just motionless. The muscles, internal organs, fat, and even blood vessels in her upper body were all fully grown at this time.
, the sudden look at her face really shocked Lou Qin.
"Don't you also think it's silly to search for each book one by one?" Lou Qin felt that he understood what she meant and sighed. "There is no other way. This is all we can do at the moment."
What shocked the Lou brothers and sisters was that Ji opened her jaw, and then, a sound came out of her mouth.
——I don’t know when Lin Sanjiu’s vocal cords were shaped.
"No," her voice was cold and gentle. Even when she was reporting bad news, it made people feel that she had a sense of stability like a powerful force. The Lou brothers and sisters were so surprised that they couldn't help but feel a touch of dependence.
.
"Be prepared," Lin Sanjiu said lightly, but the imminent sense of urgency still faintly emerged: "...someone is coming." r1152
