Crow's Paradise

A huge airship, larger than the main building of the airport, was parked quietly in the center.

One guard after another is patrolling the airport.

In this scene, Yao Yan looked at it from a distance.

As the copper-colored metal gear connecting rod rotates, as steam spurts out from the top, the propeller also rotates rapidly, causing the airship floating in the sky to change its direction.

It was at this time that the guard came over and asked him to turn his eyes away and walk away in the other direction.

He didn't get too close, and Yao Yan didn't panic.

And just as he turned to leave, suddenly, a voice sounded in the sky:

Wuwuwu——

Yao Yan looked up and saw an alarm buzzing in the southwest sky.

It was an airship, and the sirens came from it.

However, the sound of the alarm means that

"Let me see, who committed the crime?"

"Snake? Bird? Or dog?"

After turning his head and looking at the airport again, he quickly moved towards the direction where the siren came from.

When, when, when

The sound of the bell tower came from far away. Yao Yan raised his head and looked at the building in front of him.

In my mind, the common sense of this world emerged.

There are four seasons in this world.

Wind season, long night season, rainy season, long day season.

There is no such thing as spring, summer, autumn and winter.

In this world, there is only a temperature difference between day and night.

Moreover, there seems to be no energy such as oil in this world, and even coal is very rare.

However, it is precisely for this reason that Yao Yan felt that the history of this world could not be seen.

The development of economy and culture is a process. If there is nothing, some things will not develop, but will go to another route.

Just like a car.

With the sound of a siren, a vehicle with a familiar shape approached him and passed by him.

If you think about it carefully and list the vehicle shapes from various eras in history, you can easily find that vehicles are gradually becoming streamlined and flat in order to adapt to fast speeds and to reduce wind resistance.

This can also be explained by the changes in streamlined contours from trains to high-speed rail subways.

However, the world does not have the opportunity to develop fast cars.

His eyes were fixed on the streamlined vehicle passing by him at a speed of less than 40 kilometers per hour.

Also, motivation.

The energy system of this world is a sunstone system that absorbs light to generate heat and can then use steam to drive mechanical parts.

Cars in previous lives were closely related to trains.

The shape of early automobiles also had some train shapes, but they were closer to bicycles, or three-wheeled bicycles.

Before continued simplification, the engine was even rear-mounted.

Due to various reasons, cars developed into the flat, streamlined boxes that he had during his lifetime.

But now, why did the world develop vehicles of this form?

He didn't even see the light-concentrating structure on the vehicle.

With the characteristics of sunstone, when the power is basically constant, in order to use it efficiently, the development direction is often large-scale, with sunstones spread all over the machine, and developed through the crude method of stacking.

Even if the method to increase efficiency is to focus light, to increase the light that the sun stone can illuminate.

In this case, it is appropriate to have a light-condensing structure with a convex lens as the core above the engine.

However, no.

It feels like someone has simply replaced the power components with a product that was developed for a reason in the previous life and applied it in this world.

If this world is originally like this and has always developed like this, then Yao Yan can only say that people in this world are idiots.

Although this kind of thing has been seen a lot, it is also very common in science fiction works.

There is a reason why humans develop a structure like limbs and trunk + neck and head. There is also a reason why there are five fingers rather than more or fewer fingers.

However, many alien-related works will rigidly set aliens to be highly consistent with humans, or even exactly the same.

This kind of thing is presupposed as common sense that even oneself is not aware of.

And this is a rumor.

This kind of thing would also happen to Yao Yan. He could only say that he should try not to do it, but whether he did it or not, he didn't know when it would happen.

And at this moment, a voice sounded beside him:

"Sir, do you need a newspaper?"

Yao Yan turned his head and saw a boy of twelve or thirteen years old with brown hair, who was holding a stack of newspapers and smiling at him.

"Give me one."

Yao Yan took out a coin from his pocket and handed it to the young man.

"Thank you so much."

The young man smiled and took the coin, then handed a newspaper to Yao Yan.

After Yao Yan took a look at the newspaper, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"Sir, what's wrong with you? It's the wrong version. It can be replaced immediately."

The boy selling newspapers who had not yet left asked quickly.

"Not really."

Yao Yan, of course, had no intention of expressing his thoughts on the local strangeness of newspaper shapes and characters, as well as coin shapes, but asked:

"Do you know what happened over there?"

He pointed a few hundred meters away, below where the airship was hovering.

"It looks like a robbery."

The boy selling the newspaper breathed a sigh of relief knowing that it was not the newspaper that had a problem, and then responded:

"Half an hour ago, two people broke into the jewelry store and robbed it."

"robbery?"

Isn't it theft?

Upon hearing the news, Yao Yan glanced at the newspaper in his hand and shook his head.

It seems that they are not thieves corresponding to the snakes, birds, and dogs that dismembered the sun god in mythology, so there is no need to look at it.

No, it's better to take a look.

While thinking, he walked towards the jewelry store.

The boy selling newspapers next to him took one look at his actions, then turned and left, shouting and selling newspapers as he walked towards the others.

When Yao Yan came to the door of the jewelry store, he was immediately stopped by the policeman in copper-yellow uniform:

"Sir, stop, please stay away from the crime scene."

Although he said polite words, his tone was not polite at all, and the look in his eyes could even be regarded as expulsion.

"Yes yes yes~"

In line with the character of the original owner, Yao Yan gave a perfunctory tone, turned around and retreated frivolously, then walked into the crowd and observed the interior of the jewelry store with the crowd watching the excitement.

In the field of vision, there were a total of seven people, six of whom were investigating in the jewelry store.

Yao Yan is also trying to see if there are any special marks inside the jewelry store.

And soon, he got something.

The jewelry scattered on the ground vaguely formed long traces——

snake.

It seemed like it wasn't some rough robbery.

So, were there any "snake" among the two captured robbers?
