Chapter 65 New clues in the room
For the memory collectors involved in the level scene of Dolphin Bookstore, time is very tight.
Five minutes to automatically activate and collect clues is obviously not enough.
"No, there's not enough time at all!" Ma Ling was sweating anxiously at this time. After entering the room, he kept looking for possible clues, checking the book catalogue, and found out what seemed to be something. The problem books are recorded, and you even need to find them and look through them.
Also check the details of the room.
But at the end of the day, he was still like a headless chicken, and he knew very well that five minutes was not enough.
Seeing that more than half the time had passed, he ran back as fast as he could with a few books in his arms.
"Luo Xi, I found some things, including digital books. By the way, there is something in that room that was not in our first room before. It is a reduced version of an architectural model, a song-like object. Model of the theater."
Ma Ling placed the things on the table and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“Thank you for your hard work!”
Luo Xi glanced at the books and models on the table.
Then, his eyes locked on the model. He picked it up and took a look. The model was about the size of a shoe box. The raw material was wood. It should have been made into parts of different sizes and then assembled together. .
It is a very interesting and exquisite architectural model.
It looked like it was indeed an opera house. Luo Xi turned the model over at this time and found a letter name engraved on the bottom.
（ErnRubik）
"It should be the maker of this model, but it's not in English and I don't recognize it!" Ma Ling said.
Luo Xi immediately said: "This is Hungarian, meaning Erno Rubik. He was born in Hungary on July 13, 1944. He is a Hungarian inventor, sculptor, and architect. Home."
"Architect? In other words, this is His work seems to have nothing to do with the level scene."
"He also has another identity, he is the inventor of the Rubik's Cube."
"This person invented the Rubik's Cube. "?" Ma Ling was stunned. He really didn't know that this was a blind spot in his knowledge.
But he soon realized a problem, why did Luo Xi know?
So far, Luo Xi has shown a very broad range of knowledge, especially knowledge that ordinary people are unlikely to know, and he actually knows it well.
"Rubik's Cube, Rubik's Cube, wait a minute, wait a minute." Ma Ling suddenly thought of something at this time. He slapped his forehead, and his whole body was like a cat with its tail stepped on, and he became excited instantly. , and it is the kind of excitement that is uncontrollable.
"Haha, Luo Xi, I know, the Rubik's Cube is a Rubik's Cube. I know how to achieve condition one and pass the level."
Ma Ling was so excited that he lost control of his expression.
The movement here obviously attracted Qian Lejin and the four of them who were exploring in another room, and they all came back at this time.
Ma Ling had already found a pen and paper and started drawing quickly on it. His fingers were trembling because he was so excited.
"Ma Ling, what did you just say? Do you know how to pass the level?" Qian Lejin asked at this time.
"Yes, that's right, I know." Ma Ling didn't even raise his head, his whole person was in a state of excitement.
“Say it quickly!”
"Think about it, what's the first condition for completing customs clearance in the contract?" Ma Ling raised his hand and his eyes widened.
"It seems like entering room 23, yes, this is it."
"So, why is it room 23?"
"I, how did I know? "Qian Lejin shook his head.
"Ha, that means that there are at least 23 rooms here, but in fact, there should be 27, because the structure here is like a Rubik's cube. Think about it, when you enter the room, There are three room doors behind the woman named Okra, right?”
"Yes, that's right." Liu Hao nodded, he remembered this detail.
“Actually, what we saw was only part of the bookstore, and the room we are in, don’t you think it’s too square?”
“That’s true, it’s a completely cube room. It’s really rare.”
“So, if you think of the room as a square of a Rubik’s Cube, then everything makes sense. What we just said. What is entered is only one of the three squares side by side on the bottom side of the Rubik's Cube. The blue team enters the other one. If all the rooms of the Rubik's Cube are numbered, there will be numbers 1 to 27. Then, as long as we find this In the Rubik's Cube structure, the topmost room in the middle is Room 23. "
At this time, Ma Ling held up the picture he drew.
Above is a split Rubik's cube diagram. Although it is very sloppy, it can be understood at a glance.
The other party even made a mark on it.
For example, he marked a corner block under the Rubik's Cube as the red team's initial room, and another corner block on the same side as the blue team's initial room. In a three-by-three-by-three structure, the final The square in the middle of the upper level is labeled 23.
"As long as you count from the bottom, no matter which side you start from, No. 23 will be the square in the middle above. Now, do you understand?" Ma Ling was very excited.
Because this is the conclusion he deduced based on various clues.
If he can pass the level, he will undoubtedly be the biggest contributor. This is a very strong sense of achievement. According to the scientific results of some research institutions, the sense of accomplishment ranks second among all the feelings of satisfaction. Bit.
In short, it’s great!
No one said a word. Those with slow brains were still thinking about the ins and outs of this matter, while those with better brains already showed expressions of surprise and joy.
"Damn, Ma Ling, it's really yours. I think what you said makes sense. It turns out that this is how Room 23 came to be." Liu Hao obviously also wanted to understand the principle behind this. He said that based on what is currently known, Ma Ling's inference is very likely to be true.
"That is to say, from the beginning, this level scene has given some important hints, such as three side-by-side, almost identical rooms, as well as the rare interior of the cubic room, numbered Room 23, and the words The architectural model of the inventor of the Rubik's Cube is so good, it's not something that ordinary people can deduce." Qian Lejin was also speechless.
"So, if you meet the conditions and clear the level, you will be rewarded with card number 077. Because it is difficult, the reward will be so high." Ma Ling was extremely proud.
It was as if he had understood the rules of this game and could pass it immediately.
At this time, Ma Ling looked at Luo Xi.
He knew that Luo Xi was very powerful, so at this time he wanted to get Luo Xi's 'affirmation', but he found that Luo Xi did not show any expression of surprise or excitement.
From the beginning, the other person's expression was the same.
Bland, sometimes even, there is an inexplicable coldness that makes people feel shuddering.
This kind of temperament is indeed rare.
This kind of person is either an absolute introvert and mediocre with mental illness, or he is an absolute genius. Ma Ling himself is a top student. He has been among the best in elementary school, junior high school, high school and university.
He is a 'genius' in the eyes of others. Even without any special effort, he can crush other peers who work harder than him in terms of study ability and grades.
While in college, Ma Ling participated in an "Elite Club" organization, whose members were all geniuses with IQs far exceeding those of ordinary people.
In their eyes, ordinary people are actually like existences like cats and dogs. It is an absolute crushing of intelligence, a kind of biological resistance when higher creatures face lower creatures. A sense of superiority.
So Ma Ling is essentially a proud person.
In his eyes, Luo Xi is undoubtedly a powerful veteran, but Ma Ling believes that fools and mediocre people cannot survive for too long in the days of imprisonment, so Luo Xi must be a person of the same quality as him. level existence.
For example, in the first round of survival time, the evil ghost's temptation strategy was a bit extreme, but from the perspective of results, it was undoubtedly successful.
Because he cracked the opponent's plan.
Ma Ling has carefully analyzed that during the day of confinement, it is impossible to escape by relying on personal strength alone. It is necessary to gather the real elites among the Memories people, especially those who are reflected in intelligence. It is only possible to breed elites.
"Luo Xi must also need a partner and ally with the same intelligence as him. I am his best choice, because I am the only human being at the same level as him." At this moment, Ma Ling's eyes With strong confidence.
"Have you found the wheel in other rooms?" Luo Xi asked at this time.
"Winning wheels? Well, there are, so I guess there should be them in every room," Ma Ling said.
"Can it rotate?"
"No, it feels very heavy. Either the rotation is not strong enough, or there is a mechanism inside, and some kind of locking device needs to be opened before it can rotate."
"You go to the other two rooms, Take a photo of the book catalog." Luo Xi looked at the time: "Hurry up, the second round of survival time is about to start."
"Ah, okay, okay!" Ma Ling and Qian Lejin responded. Come over and hurried over to take pictures, but Ma Ling was obviously a little angry.
"He didn't seem to listen to my analysis just now. Why? Did he think my analysis was wrong, or did he simply look down on me?" Ma Ling frowned, with anger in his eyes.
And the more I think about this kind of thing, the angrier I get.
"What you said is wrong, we can discuss it. What does it mean to ignore people? What's so great about you? Why should you look down on people."
Ma Ling had a gloomy face, originally feeling sorry for Luo Xina. The little bit of goodwill was gone.
A proud and conceited person hates people who are inferior to him the most and actually look down on him.
“Don’t he know that this kind of behavior is stupid? Therefore, he is not a wise man, but an ordinary person who is pretending!”
Ma Ling took the photo and returned to the initial room almost at the same time as Qian Lejin.
Luo Xi took their mobile phones and looked at them respectively.
“So that’s it!”
At this moment, the five-minute rest and exploration time began to count down.
Three
Two
One
The second round of survival time begins!
