Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

On the table in the bottom cabin was a display screen that Chen Yan hadn't seen yesterday. A quarter of the display screen had problems, and purple liquid filled it.

"The inner screen is leaking, but it can still be used for a day or two for the time being."

Jack Baldo's tone was restrained excitement, he was obviously very interested in the things he found.

The line extending from the back of the display is connected to a simple host on the side. The host doesn't even have a case, it's just a mainboard that has obviously been overhauled, and the necessary parts for normal operation are plugged in, such as power supply, mechanical hard disk, and memory sticks. , a processor, and a noisy cooling fan that no longer spins at a constant speed-this thing was obviously pieced together by the two from a pile of electronic waste.

"The model of this CPU is Y-1142, which is the second-generation chip produced in the New Industrial Zone of Yanan City. It is a miracle to find this thing!"

George Lebster was also a little excited, which was obviously something he couldn't ask for before.

Chen Yan said thoughtfully:

“Y代表亚楠市，1代表1代，14代表14纳米，2代表第一代的第2个型号？”

George Lebster obviously did not expect Chen Yan to know this naming method, he was not surprised, but nodded and said:
"Yes, the new industrial zone now only has a public chip manufacturer invested by Yanan City, so the CPU model starts with Yanan City."

"I heard that other companies are also working on chips, and even some companies - companies from the imperial capital, have produced a 10-nanometer process chip with a perfect physical structure, and the calculation speed is much faster than the 14-nanometer process chip, but due to The reason for the immature production and processing technology of monocrystalline silicon materials is that 10-nanometer chips cannot be mass-produced, and the island chain can only use 14-nanometer chips produced in Yanan City."

Chen Yan touched his chin:

"But even 14nm chips can't be mass-produced."

Jack Baldo took up the conversation:
"Yes, the output is quite small, so it can only be supplied to airports and island chain logistics centers for the time being."

He said with emotion:

"I really didn't expect to encounter this... Although this kind of thing is produced in Yanan City, it basically cannot be circulated in Yanan City, because even if it is broken or defective, once it is sold by the airport Discarded internally, it will soon enter the hands of relevant people, because all the big shots in the market want this thing-this is a short-selling item, and it is in short supply, and its computing efficiency is not comparable to that of previous computers. .”

Chen Yan said:

"You mean the computer that Nuomi Guo used to?"

Jack Baldo nodded:
"Previous computers could only process simple files and perform simple web searches, and their calculation speed was extremely poor-the first generation CPU only had 2300 transistors, which were not enough to form complex gate circuits for program calculations."

"But now, this Y-1142 has integrated 30 billion transistors - it is enough to do everything we imagined!"

Chen Yan didn't understand this, so he couldn't tell how exciting this matter was from his words.

But he still felt the excitement, because the synaesthesia made him feel the unreserved mood of Jack Baldo.

Jake Baldo explained while navigating the leaky display with an ugly, broken and greasy mouse, opening folders on the crude UI - folders opened very slowly because According to him, the mechanical hard drive they found was broken, and even if it had been repaired with a machine, it could not reach the normal speed.

Then, a bunch of video files appeared in front of him.

Jack Baldo clicked on one of them, and when the video was full-screen, a hot-eyed picture appeared in front of Chen Yan.

A hoarse scream came from the rotten speaker next to the display screen, and there was obvious excitement and joy in the scream. It was the cry of a woman.

The woman's cry was mixed with another woman's curse, but the curse was not intense, it sounded more like...

Chen Yan couldn't describe it.

"I didn't see anything strange..."

Jake Baldo remains excited:

"It's not the critical moment yet."

He dragged the progress bar with the mouse, and the screen on the liquid leaking screen moved forward rapidly until it was frozen after everything was over——

After everything was over, the camera turned, and a huge floor-to-ceiling window appeared on the screen.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is an excellent overlooking view of Days Island. From this perspective, Chen Yan can even see his own berth in area A of the wharf—at this moment, it is not his ship that is docked at the berth. This video is obviously his. It was taken before coming to Days Island.

The camera turned again, and the girl with black hair and a good figure had already put on her clothes, and there were several blue letters printed on the chest of the clothes:
DLLC·JCF
"DLLC should mean Dyes Island Logistics Center (Deatheland Logistics center)...but what does this JCF mean?"

Chen Yan spelled out the phrase, and Jack Baldo replied:

"Joint combat forces, joint combat forces—this woman is from the army. We found her information on the Internet. Her name is Mokesh Ivanova. She is a Slav from Suka Britain. She was a former member of Days Island. One of the deputy commanders of the defense guards, she killed half of the natives on the island."

The camera changed again, and the angle of view was aimed at another woman lying on the bed.

The woman's appearance was very similar to that of Asians, except for her darker and redder skin, she was no different from normal Asians.

The woman was obviously much younger than Marsana, and looked at Mokesh Ivanova with interested eyes, as if she still had more to say.

Jack Baldo hit the space bar on his keyboard, pausing the video on the scene of the woman looking at Mokosh Ivanova with that playful expression.

"This woman is an aborigine of Days Island, the group that naturalized the empire, and the only surviving indigenous people on the island. They look just like you... well, how should I put it, but I am online I searched, but I didn’t find any knowledge about them and you—although they look the same as you, and may have the same ancestors going back countless generations, but in the long crustal changes and human migrations, you have long been different. a nation."

Chen Yan touched his chin, but did not speak.

Jack Baldo pointed to the woman whose body was mostly buried in the quilt, and continued:

"This woman's name is Yahamimi Dobenacha, which translates to Birth in the Back Moon Crazy Woman."

Chen Yan looked at him with surprised eyes.

Jack Baldo said helplessly:

"That's how the names of the aboriginal people on Days Island are. They have no names and no surnames, and they only use the major events and main characteristics of their life experiences as their code names."

Chen Yan nodded with difficulty, reluctantly accepting this statement.

Jack Baldo pressed the space bar to continue playing the video.

Mokesh looked at her with those beautiful pale white eyes, and his gloomy tone did not match the beautiful scene in front of him:

"There is no next time."

The latter pouted.

According to Chen Yan's aesthetic standards, even among Asians, Dobe Nacha can be regarded as the prettier kind. Her beauty is wild, like some kind of little wild cat that makes people scratch their heads.

Mokesh looked even more gloomy:

"In two days... don't stay in the mechanical hive."

The latter's expression finally changed:

"Are they going to make a move?"

Mokesh's slender eyelashes drooped down, and at the same time he buttoned the last button of his dark blue combat uniform.

"Not against you."

The girl jumped up from the bed, buried her head in her chest, and made a buzzing sound.

"I'm different from them. No matter what you do, I will forgive you."

Mokesh pushed her away indifferently.

"you do not know any think."

The girl stood there with her head bowed for a moment, then suddenly said:

"It's also these two days, you don't want to be with others."

Mokesh, who was already dressed and armed, looked up at her in surprise.

The two looked at each other, then looked away tacitly.

Chen Yan tapped the space bar:

"I'm sure the two of them were talking about the massacre that happened in the mechanical hive the day before yesterday - the mutual massacre between the forces [Resistance Faction] that represented the original existence of Days Island, and the officials of the airborne Days Island Logistics Center [Advent Faction] .”

Jack Baldo asked:
"What result?"

Chen Yan simply replied:

"More than half of the guests invited to the celebration banquet for the establishment of the logistics center died, and the residents of a certain area in the mechanical hive were purged—that was probably the hiding place of some important members of the [Resistance Faction]."

George Lebster said from the side at this time:
"We happened to find out an organization called [Gunpowder Shop]. They used to be the largest arms seller on Days Island and one of the strongest gangs. They ran most of the unscrupulous businesses. The Island Pioneering Group, which is also the current Days Island Logistics Center, has a close relationship, but now it has quit inexplicably, and almost no information can be found on the Internet."

Chen Yan confirmed:
"The people in [Gunpowder Store] are almost dead. Even if there are survivors, they must have gone to hide to avoid the limelight."

Although he didn't know where Chen Yan got the news, his firm tone was enough to convince the two people in front of him.

Jack Baldo turned the conversation back to the video.

"According to the public information of the Days Island Logistics Center, this woman is now the number three person in the center and is in charge of the overall security of the island. The armed worker bees you see in the mechanical hive are all under her control...

I heard that she will run for election next month. According to her connections, it is almost certain that she will be elected to the council. In the future, she will definitely have a place in the decision-making layer of the logistics center. "

Chen Yan was thinking while listening.

Jack Baldo and George Lebster only watched what happened in the video for fun, but in Chen Yan's view, this video had extraordinary value.

She is an important figure in the election next month, and this video will have a very bad influence on her, enough to ruin her election.

Chen Yan doesn't mind doing such a thing, but he won't do it, because it's completely unnecessary, and he has almost no interaction with this woman.

He thought to himself that the only possibility for him to meet Mokesh Ivanova was Klein—if this woman was Klein's political enemy or partner, once Klein asked Chen Yan for help, Chen Yan would With some opportunities.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan shook his head lightly to get these distracting thoughts out of his mind.

Klein's current situation is too bad. Whether he can see the sun tomorrow is one thing. Once Klein loses control, Chen Yan will find a way to escape.

Chen Yan turned his attention back to the broken computer screen.

Jack Baldo points to the video in the folder:
"It's almost full of such unspeakable things, almost every district of the mechanical hive.

I really don't know who took these videos, obviously someone hid cameras in every corner of the mechanical hive. "

He complained:

"It's unbelievable that the hard disk storing such secret information has become a waste product! How could such a thing happen? But it just happened!"

Chen Yan said:

"Where's the memory?"

Jack Baldo pointed to a certain interface on the side of the mainboard, and saw a black thumb-sized USB flash drive plugged into it. The black shell of the USB flash drive was obviously added later, because the black shell could barely cover it. Live inside the circuit board.

Chen Yan stretched out his hand and touched the USB flash drive.

The synaesthesia that appeared in front of my eyes just stayed in "pitch black".

I don't know how long time passed in the darkness, and finally there was light——

George Lebster's shrimp head appeared in front of Chen Yan.

This is the scene when they just opened the package in the bilge, and it is also the only scene related to this USB drive.

Chen Yan silently withdrew from the synesthesia state.

"When you saw this USB drive just now, it was also broken?"

George Lebster replied:

"Yes, the outer shell of this USB flash drive is almost completely destroyed, only a dirty chip is left. We didn't think to fix this thing. It's really a pile of electronic waste. There are not many hardware storage devices, so we just want to repair it, who knows that it can be used after cleaning the dust."

Chen Yan vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this thing, but he didn't know where the problem was, so he said:
"Can this computer transfer files to the phone?"

Jack Baldo says:
"No problem at all, we fixed a wireless signal processor."

Chen Yan uploaded 53 videos, large and small, to his mobile phone. At the same time, he also learned about the repair progress of this batch of e-waste from Jack Baldo:
"Simpler problems, such as water burning capacitors, electrostatic breakdown of circuit boards, and internal and external screen failures, have all been repaired."

"Some things that can't be repaired are problems with the chip. This batch accounts for about one-fifth of all the equipment, which is quite a lot. The chip cannot be repaired, so these equipment can only be disassembled and used as parts. "

"The remaining ones that have not been repaired are relatively large-scale equipment with complex internal structures or involve some missing parts, such as camera lenses and the like."

"If you look at the number alone, before the sun goes down today, we can repair two-thirds of the total."

This number has far exceeded Chen Yan's expectations.

Under such a harsh working environment, and with such poor support of equipment and parts, Chen Yan originally thought that it would be a great success if he could repair half of it, but he did not expect to be able to repair two thirds of it.
