Chapter 272 Dinosaur Rampage (1) - Internet Cafe
The key word in the mission, "Find and destroy the experimental base for breeding dinosaurs," is "find," indicating that finding this place will not be easy.
With only 10 days left, she had to hurry, so she put the money into her personal storage space.
Although her space is small, the things she has stored so far are also relatively small in size.
You can crumple up the money; most of it can be stuffed in. The portion that can't be stuffed in is kept in your pocket for later spending.
This city is called White Night City.
Ning Shu first looked for a bookstore, and luckily, there was one nearby. She went in and bought a city map and a pen.
I also went to the supermarket and bought a backpack to put the map in, as well as some water and compressed biscuits.
She bought enough water to fill six ink bottles and then had it carried to the supermarket's break room.
She first went to the tea room to empty all the ink from the ink bottle, cleaned it, and then poured all the water she had bought into the bottle.
After filling the bottle, there was still a little less than half a bottle of water left. She put the remaining water in her backpack and put all the ink bottles in her storage space.
She had food, drinks, and a map; now she needed to find a place to go online.
Ning Shu felt that the fact that the system never provided a mobile phone with internet access was really inconvenient.
She only has 3,000 yuan, which is not enough to buy a mobile phone. If she buys a mobile phone, she will also need to buy a SIM card.
Instead of spending so much money buying so many things, it's more practical to go to an internet cafe to surf the internet.
Internet cafes are easy to find, much easier than bookstores. She sat down at the computer and started watching videos.
In this era, news spreads faster than short videos, so she specifically watches short videos.
The people next to her who were playing games online were surprised to see her scrolling through short videos.
Are there still people who come to internet cafes these days just to watch short videos?
Isn't this something you can do with just a mobile phone?
Ning Shu was unaware of what the people around her were thinking; otherwise, she would have casually remarked: "Everyone knows you can watch short videos if you have a phone, the key is that she has to have one!"
She refreshed for two hours but still couldn't find it, and wondered if the dinosaur hadn't appeared yet.
No, it's probably because the big data didn't let her see it.
She typed the keywords "dinosaur" into her computer and a bunch of results came up.
She skipped over the movie footage and finally found a video related to the city's name and dinosaurs.
really!
Big data never disappoints.
Ning Shu clicked on it and saw that the video showed a shopping mall.
The dinosaurs came from who-knows-where, and they bite anyone they see. If they kill someone, they show off.
The person filming the video was probably on a high floor above the dinosaur, and the shooting angle was from top to bottom.
The other person must have been terrified because the video was shaking so badly.
Soon, a second and third dinosaur appeared in the mall, both of them being smaller velociraptors.
This dragon is fast and ferocious, biting anyone it sees.
The person filming was probably worried about being chased by a dinosaur, so they turned the camera away, and then it started shaking a lot, and then the footage disappeared.
She checked the video's posting time; it was 1 hour and 5 minutes ago, so the dinosaurs must have appeared even earlier.
Ning Shu glanced at the video's caption: "Prehistoric dinosaurs have appeared in Victoria Square and are killing people in sight."
She immediately started searching for "Victoria Square" on an online map, and the results appeared quickly.
She took out the map she had bought, spread it out, and compared it with the shape of the map online, quickly locating the corresponding position.
Ning Shu used a pen to circle the corresponding locations on the map and also noted the time when the dinosaurs appeared.
Although she thought the time was inaccurate, it should be close to the time when the dinosaurs left the experimental base.
This also indicates where they first appeared, suggesting that an experimental base was likely hidden nearby.
She continued watching videos.
The people next to Ning Shu were even more puzzled by her behavior. Why did she have to record something while watching a video?
Could it be some big shot who came to the internet cafe to study?
What about him playing games next to him? Is it really necessary to be so overbearing?
Why do they have to do it in an internet cafe? Are they trying to kill us all?
Ning Shu was scrolling through videos without knowing anything, and soon, more and more of them were about dinosaur sightings.
Unlike the terrified expressions on people's faces in the video, Ning Shu was very happy at this moment.
She wrote furiously, noting down every piece of information about location and time revealed in each video.
But she soon stopped laughing, because she realized that these locations were all quite far apart and made no sense.
If they are all concentrated in one area, then she can narrow down her search area.
But now they are scattered all over the city, so what difference does it make if she turns the whole city upside down!
She continued watching videos, thinking that if she kept watching, the more places she recorded, the more obvious a clustering effect would appear on the map.
To put it another way, imagine a place where many dinosaurs roam, while other places only have a few scattered ones.
So, places with a lot of dinosaurs might be where the experimental base is located.
Other scattered dinosaurs may have escaped from this place.
And so, she spent almost the entire day in the internet cafe.
By evening, she couldn't stay up any longer and found a small hotel next to the internet cafe to stay in.
The rooms in this small hotel were very cheap, just over 100 yuan, so Ning Shu checked in right away.
The receptionist added, "Please be careful, guest. I heard that dinosaurs have appeared in the city, and the government is dealing with it. I don't know if it will affect us."
Ning Shu asked, "Didn't the news report mention the outcome of the investigation?"
The receptionist shook her head: "No, it was just an announcement that everyone should stay home as much as possible."
But there are quite a lot of tourists in this city, and they also need accommodation.
The boss couldn't bear to miss this opportunity to make money, so we're still working.
Ning Shu sympathized with her: "You've had a hard time."
Receptionist: "Oh, I didn't hear that accommodation was in short supply tonight, so you can stay at such a cheap price. But it might not be so good tomorrow night."
Ning Shu's heart skipped a beat. Did this mean they were going to raise prices?
But she might not be here tomorrow, and besides, she's here to do a mission.
If she could clear the game by simply hiding, she would definitely just hide here.
Players have a tough life.
The accommodation at this price point certainly wouldn't be very good. After finishing her meal, she put on her glasses and glanced at the main street.
The glasses didn't provide any information related to dinosaurs, so she felt safe and quickly took a shower before lying down to sleep.
Of course, I wore my usual clothes, since it's not always safe at night.
If a dinosaur were to attack in the middle of the night, she couldn't just run around in her pajamas, could she?
Ning Shu had a dream in which she found the experimental base, but the base was very large, and she only had a stick in her hand.
Her mission is to destroy the base.
But looking at the stick in her hand, she fell silent.
Is she going to take a stick and destroy the base?
