Chapter 248 Federation
The clean streets are deserted.
There were not many pedestrians on the road, their faces were indifferent and their steps were hurrying.
Fang Lu came to a convenience store, and the things sold in the store were very unfamiliar with Fang Lu. Of course, he didn't have to care about these things, because these things could not be loaded into the warehouse, so it was naturally impossible to take them out of this small world.
"Get what you want to buy and get it yourself." The owner, a middle-aged uncle, sat on the counter and said lazily, as he was passing the time with something like a tablet.
"Can I ask you something?" Fang Lu said. Of course he was not here to buy things, in fact he didn't have the money from this city either.
The shop owner ignored Fang Lu, staring at the tablet without knowing what he was looking at.
"If you help, I can give the money." Fang Lu said without hesitation.
"How much?" The owner was interested and asked.
"How much do you want?" Fang Lu didn't even know what the currency in this city looked like, so she could only ask back.
"Fifty Points Star Coins." The store owner offered the price.
"Yes." Fang Lu said with a smile: "But the premise is that you have to be able to answer my questions."
"What do you want to ask?" the owner thought for a while and said.
"Do you know Dr. Xiong?" Fang Lu asked.
"Dr. Xiong?" The owner's face immediately became cold, "You came from another place, right? What's the point of asking for a dead person? Go quickly, don't disturb me in business."
Fang Lu was driven out of the convenience store, and he raised his eyebrows slightly. Is Dr. Xiong dead?
Does the system ask them to find a dead person?
This is not impossible, after all, the system does not say that Dr. Xiong is still alive.
But even if you die, you have to find Dr. Xiong's body.
Fang Lu asked three people in this city again, but when these people heard the three words "Dr. Xiong", their attitude became very bad and they were unwilling to say another word.
"It seems that Dr. Xiong is very unpopular in this city."
"I don't know what he did, but he would offend so many people."
Fang Lu walked on the street and thought silently, but he suddenly stopped because he saw an explorer, which would not be difficult for the explorer to recognize. After all, with system assistance, those who cannot see the name or display 97:xxx can only be explorers.
The female explorer also saw Fang Lu.
The two of them just looked at each other and went their separate ways.
There are 9999 explorers in this small world. It is meaningless to simply kill one or two explorers. It is still necessary to find the clues given by the system.
Fang Lu glanced at the exploration progress table again and found that there were only 9,812 explorers left.
Those who have decreased either die or give up leaving this small world.
The system once said that you can give up leaving this lost city at any time.
Of course, there are still few people willing to give up. Even if there are no dice like Fang Lu, seeing so many people exploring this small world, fools can guess that the rewards of this small world are very rich.
But the competition is also very large.
Fang Lu left the street and walked into a leisurely place that should be a park, but there were few people in such a place. He saw an old man walking slowly by the pond in the park.
Fang Lu walked up and tried to talk to the old man. The old man had a pretty good attitude at first, but when he heard Fang Lu mention Dr. Xiong, his face rose and wanted to turn around and leave.
But Fang Lu took out a piece of gold and shook it in front of the old man, "If you are willing to say it, this is yours."
Every small world is different. Some people in small worlds may not necessarily want gold, but Fang Lu just tried to ask that in the Lost City, gold is still a hard currency.
The old man couldn't move his steps anymore. He put away the gold bars and said with a complicated expression: "You are from other places, are you here? It's been so long, what do you think of him?"
"Just want to know something." Fang Lu said: "Is it true that they said he was dead?"
"Can this be fake?" the old man said unhappily: "He has been dead for nearly thirty years."
"How did you die?" Fang Lu asked.
The old man looked up at the obscene sky, and walked towards the stone chair next to him, "Why don't you even know this? He made a big mistake and was caught and executed."
"Not many people should have seen it when they were executed, right?" Fang Lu asked: "Can he not actually die yet?"
The old man looked sarcastic, "This is absolutely impossible. At that time, the adults in the whole city wanted him to die, especially the consul Dick hated him to the core. The death penalty would not be imposed. If it weren't for him, the consul Dick would have been able to go further and enter the power center of the federal government and become a member of parliament because he was all ruined."
That being said, the person who lives may be very small... Fang Lu thought for a while and said, "What is the reason for the execution of the death penalty?"
"You really don't know anything." The old man said helplessly: "He is just a liar who tells everyone. He cheats everyone, even the Federal Academy of Sciences dares to cheat, but the fake is always fake, and in the end he is exposed, and it is considered light to sentence him to death."
Fang Lu had no choice but to say a lot of things, but he was still confused, so he could only patiently ask carefully.
Dr. Xiong was born in this city and the world highly valued knowledge and investment in education is at all costs.
This is true in every city, and the Lost City is no exception when it is not called the Lost City.
From the moment a child is born and receives education, everything is free, and the cost of education is borne by the official. Of course, in order to save costs and to select excellent talents for more efficiency, the IQ test will be conducted after the child is admitted to school for three years.
From then on, everyone's life has a watershed. Those with high IQs enter high-intelligence classes, and those with low IQs enter ordinary classes. Ordinary classes are also commonly known as low-intelligence classes.
The educational resources obtained by high-level and ordinary classes are different, and the things they learn are also completely different.
Of course everyone here is already accustomed to this system, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this.
The high-level intelligent class has been tilted into educational resources, and the students in the class are originally smart. They study hard in order to become scientists, and secondly, they must become elite talents in society.
Scientists... are the most respected profession in the world, and the Federal Academy of Sciences is the supreme agency of the federal society. Everything in society revolves around scientists.
The allocation of national resources is measured by how many scientists a city has taught and how much contribution it has made.
Fang Lu's opinion is strange to this system that is mainly scientists, but this is not the focus of his attention. He is more concerned about Dr. Xiong.
