Gamers Are Fierce - Chapter 1102

[Chapter 101 My Love (6)]

  Li Ang picked up the wooden box. The

  wooden box itself was slightly larger than a palm. It was square, and the surface was coated with a layer of brown paint.

  On six sides, there were some colored lights like kindergarten teachers sticking to the children’s foreheads. Xing,

  at the bottom of the box, there is a note on it, written in slightly scribbled English:

  [We were born, grew up, and went to school in the same place, but we never knew each other’s name and existence until fate made us meet each other. I made this box as a testimony to our first encounter, hopefully before it’s too late. S]

  ”Huh?”

  Li Ang frowned, checking this small note over and over under the light.

  This note undoubtedly exists as a whole with the wooden box.

  ”From the tone of the description, this should be a gift made by someone to his or her lover.

  The S at the back may be some kind of code, or the name of the person who made the gift.

  Samuel? Stephen? Stone? Sandy?

  If it is the male owner of the house and it is given to the female owner, then it means that they are fellow villagers in the same place.

  But what does the last sentence ‘hope everything is too late’ mean? I

  was caught cheating and wanted a divorce? Li Ang muttered to

  himself, and turned his eyes to the wooden box. The six sides of the box were tightly assembled, but by scratching the edges with his fingernails, the splicing marks could still be touched.

  Li Ang picked up the wooden box, weighed it in his hand, and turned it over. He felt that the weight was wrong.

  The inside of the square box was hollow,

  and the center of gravity of the box did not have the weight of a surface at the very center. Several pieces of noodles are heavier.

  ”Hidden things? Diamond rings? Earrings? Necklaces? Jewelry? It can’t be a divorce agreement, right?”

  Li Ang squinted his eyes and pondered, put down the box, and glanced at the garage.

  The Chevrolet SUV does not have a car key, and the garage door also has a system marked “Cannot pass”, which means that even if Li Ang pried the car, he can’t drive through the garage door and forcibly break the game.

  Li Ang left the garage and walked back to the living room while holding the box for research.

  The wooden doll was still covered in the ceramic pot where the flowers were planted, and there was no sign of movement.

  If the tattoo that suddenly appeared on the arm hadn’t lied, the doll should have 16 minutes to wake up from the seal.

  Carrying the wooden box and the flashlight, Li Ang came to the stairs leading to the second floor in the living room. There was

  a silver-white steel gate in the middle of

  the stairs. Part of it was a whole piece of heavy steel, which was supposed to be the door handle, but it was replaced by an LCD screen,

  which was printed with a pattern of black handprint outlines, which looked like it was going to be scanned for fingerprints.

  Li Ang stood in front of the gate, and through the upper part of the iron pipe structure similar to the gate of the prison gate, he could see a small part of the stairs behind the gate.

  However, the iron pipe fences are so densely placed that they are so indestructible that even a child’s arm cannot pass through them.

  Li Ang reluctantly put the photo frame behind the fence, and through the mirror of the photo frame, he could see that behind the gate, there was also an LCD panel for fingerprint scanning, which

  meant that the gate could pass in both directions.

  ”So what is this family doing, Mr. and Mrs. Smith? Install such an exaggerated security door at home.”

  Li Ang complained, “The fingerprint panel is dark and dull, and there is no response when you tap the corner, it looks like there is no electricity. damaged or damaged.

  There is no problem using this gate as an explosion-proof shield, and there are no signs of damage, so it should not be broken.

  Considering the cumbersome nature of the gate itself and its difficult disassembly, it is likely that the external power supply is used instead of the internal battery power supply,

  eh?

  He looked up at the ceiling and found that between the ceiling and the wall, there was a slender wire wrapped in white insulating rubber, extending from the crack in the wall and leading to the top of the iron gate, which should be the power cable for the metal gate .

  However, the middle of the wire seems to have been deliberately damaged, and a large section is missing out of thin air, which is more than three meters.

  ”The wire is damaged? Deliberately not letting me go upstairs? ”

  Li Ang frowned: “The goal of the mission is to find a way to the second floor, which means that I can find a long enough wire?”

  After thinking for a moment, he brought a chair from the dining room, put it on the stairs, stepped

  on the chair, and pryed the broken wires at both ends from the ceiling. The

  broken wire was relatively thin, and the white insulating rubber was printed with 12V Words.

  The earliest voltage standard in the United States is 100V, which originated from Edison’s personal hobby. The electric light he developed can work well at this voltage. Later, in order to save losses, it was changed to 110V, and later, for the convenience of calculation, he continued to improve on this basis. It turned into a standard voltage of 120V.   The

  fingerprint unlocking gate was obviously not taken from the standard household power supply system, but installed by the owner of the house himself .

Other wire materials.

  He noticed just now that there are still many electrical appliances in the room, such as TV sets and electric lights. It should be possible to cut off the wires, strip them and modify them.

  However, when he used the insulating scissors in the kitchen, he went to When I cut the wire, I found that it couldn’t be cut.

  After cutting for a long time, the insulation layer on the surface of the wire still does not break.

  ”Is the American technology tree in this world climbing crooked? How much do you hate civilians who build wires privately?!”

  Li Ang complained, but he was not too excited. This is obviously the script for this time. The low-level settings for the task.

  You can’t pull the wire yourself, so how about using water to conduct electricity?

  Li Ang stood there and jumped, without the urge to urinate at all. There was no water coming out of the sink in the kitchen after turning on the faucet.

  ”Is this road blocked too?”

  Li Ang sighed, turned away without hesitation, and walked to the right side of the living room, which was the only door in the room that he didn’t know the purpose of.

  This door has no doorknob or keyhole, just a circular groove with a ring of iron that can be retracted on the edge of the groove, which looks like it is going to put something in.

  There are still 10 minutes before the puppet wakes up from the seal.

  Li Ang calmly calculated the remaining time and looked down at the wooden box in his hand.

  According to the conventions of decryption games,

  when all the items that can be collected in the level are collected, or you are still stuck in the level, the

  solution to the problem must be in the collected items.

  ”Could it be that there is a long enough wire in the box?”

  Li Ang pondered, carefully piercing the gap on the surface of the box with a meat cleaver, turning the blade sideways, trying to pry the box open.

  However, before he could exert his strength, there was a clear and slight cracking sound of glass from the box, as if a container was cracking.

  Li Ang hurriedly stopped the power in his hand,

  Some classic secret boxes have the setting of [self-destruction when they encounter brute force cracking]. For example, in “The Da Vinci Code”, there is a papyrus with a secret written in it, and a piece of vinegar with vinegar. If someone forcibly opens the fragile glass bottle

  without knowing the password, it will destroy the glass bottle inside, causing the vinegar in the bottle to spill out and melt the papyrus next to it, ensuring that the secret will not be leaked.

  If this wooden box is also designed in the same way, then it cannot be forcibly destroyed.

  ”Hidden the secret box?”

  Li Ang took a deep breath, calmed down his irritability, and looked at the box carefully.

  There is nothing strange about the box itself. There are some decorative star patterns on the six surfaces, and the patterns on each surface are different.

  Li Ang took the box close and far, squinting and staring. No numbers, words, or patterns can be seen from the star pattern.

  ”Is it possible that the six sides want me to throw the box on the ground like a dice?”

  Li Ang pondered. In theory, it is possible that if the wooden box is made of tenon-and-mortise structure, there are a few hidden inside that can Dodge plugs that move in their respective planes, then indeed it can be achieved.

  Rotate the box back and forth, and let the thin wooden stick-shaped dark bolts move along the chute on their respective planes.

  Since the dark bolts on different planes will be stuck in the corners,

  when the box rotates in the specified order , so that when the last bolt is returned, one side of the box can be opened, so that the contents hidden in the box can be taken out.

  Brush pull brush pull.

  Li Ang picked up the box and shook it gently, listening carefully, there was no sound of the dark bolt hitting the wooden block.

  If it’s not a dark bolt, what would it be?

  Li Ang placed the box on the ground, rotated all sides back and forth, and kept pushing and pulling the surface of the wooden box with his palms, but nothing gained.

  Time passed bit by bit, Li Ang gently pressed the wooden box, and his fingers scratched the decorative star stickers on the surface of the box unconsciously.

  ”Wait, these stickers”

  Li Ang’s eyes lit up, he took the wooden box, hurried to the floor-to-ceiling window in the side hall, pulled the palm of his hand, and opened the floor-to-ceiling window.

  The bright stars from the outside shined in through the glass, and

  Li Ang lifted the wooden box to compare with the stars in the sky.

  ”Oh, these star stickers on the box correspond to the star map in the sky.”

  Li Ang rotated the wooden box and said softly: “The four surrounding faces are Ursa Major, Libra, Pisces South, and Aries.

  The top and bottom are The two sides are Cygnus and Pisces.

  These star patterns are large and small, indicating the magnitude of the stars themselves.”

  Li Ang ran back and forth in the side hall and the living room, matching all the star patterns on the five sides. The poop on the upper bottom is not visible, but it should be far away from the constellation Cygnus.

  ”However, it’s a bit strange.”

  Li Ang frowned and said to himself: “At this moment, the general directions of these constellations in the sky do correspond to the positions on the wooden box.

  The star map I observed is almost realistic. What the world can see in California at night. The

  question is, how did the maker of the box do it so accurately?

  If you change the time and season, then the star map on the box will not correspond to the real world. The star sticker

  on the surface of the box is very strong and not easy to tear off. In

  this way,

  there is only one possibility that the maker of the box wants to give the box to the own lover.”

  I have to say that this idea is indeed very romantic. I opened the box in the presence of the stars, and took out a love token such as a ring or rose from it,

  but knowing this, it didn’t help Li Ang’s decryption much.

  ”Knowing that the design of the box is correct, what method should I use to open it?”

  Li Ang pondered, and once again took out the note that was pasted under the box before,

  [We were born in the same place

  but never knew each other

  until Destiny made us meet

  I made this box as a testimony to our first encounter, I hope it’s still too late. S]

  ”The star map on this box roughly matches the nebula pattern in the sky in the real world,”

  Li Ang pondered: “No matter where the maker of the box made this box, he definitely wants to open it at this moment.

  There may also be a requirement to open the box at a specific location, such as where the box maker and his lover first met. Could it be possible that

  there is a GPS device inside the box?

  No, not likely.

  Even if a GPS device is installed, I can’t even get out of the house now, and it’s impossible to explore outside.

  And if the location is in the house, I’ve walked through every corner of the house just now, and I can open early.

  Excluding these possibilities, there are still What’s next?”

  He was immersed in the idea of solving the problem, and the possibilities kept popping up in his mind, and then they were overturned and rejected by reason and logic.

  ”Wait, S? Could it be?”

  Li Ang placed the box on the ground as if realizing something, with the side of the Cygnus Nebula up and the side of the Pisces down.

  Hold the side of the box with your left hand and rotate it gently, while

  your right hand presses and pushes the front of the box.

  click.

  Finally, when the box turned to a certain angle, the wooden block on the upper side with the Cygnus pattern was pushed away, revealing the structure inside.

  On the back of the lid on the front of the box, there is a fragile square glass bottle with some gravel in it.

  A compass is pasted on the bottom of the box below the glass bottle.

  Li Ang gently took out the glass bottle and compass inside, and looked at the outline of the circular compass, which just matched the circular groove on the surface of the wooden door of the room on the right side of the living room.

  He already understood how the box works.

  The S written at the end of the note is not the name of the person, but the south of the compass.

  The bottom of the box is pasted with a compass.

  First, the box needs to be placed in the correct posture of “cygnus up, poop down”,

  and then continue to rotate the box.

  Since the compass in the box will continue to point in the north and south directions,

  when the pointer rotates to a certain angle, it will trigger the magnetic mechanism associated with the compass at the bottom of the box, causing the single hidden bolt hidden at the bottom of the box to move away. This allows the box to be opened.

  And because the secret bolt was stuck by the magnetic mechanism, and there was only one, so even if Li Ang shook the box before, he did not hear the obvious sound of the secret bolt.
