Chapter 40 The Lost Scroll

In the library, there was utter silence.

The rows upon rows of bookshelves, bathed in the interplay of sunlight, constructed a dazzling sea.

On the table lay a thick tome titled "Study of the Logic of Constants in Electronic Physics," half-flipped open, with a monocle standing on its pages, its chain pressed down on them, serving as a bookmark.

The chair that had been in its usual spot was draped with a gray suit jacket.

The owner of the jacket stood in front of the huge bookshelves, bathed in the tranquil sunlight.

Deep Sea had connected the entire world, enabling data sharing.

Now, hardly anyone visited the reading room for physical books anymore.

Cui Zhongcheng removed two connected books from the shelf.

He paused for a moment.

After removing the books, the gap in the bookshelf revealed a pair of cunning eyes hinting a smirk.
