Chapter 153 Number Seven
Dr. Zhang pulled his arm back, returned to the wooden door, and looked at the numbers... "Uh... can this really be a sentence?"
Liu Yi nodded with certainty, "Of course, the "question mark" is there, it's obviously a question to ask us two."
"But, there is not even a Chinese character or even a letter..."
Liu Yi said again: "If there is no, there is no... Isn't language just a bunch of meaningless strokes created to record communication?"
Dr. Zhang was stunned for a moment. He thought about this kind of problem when he was young, such as the origin of the world and the end of the universe. However, as he grew older, these vague ideas had long been completely ignored.
But I think that's true. Words are composed of strokes or letters, and then more phrases are used to form sentences. Their original meaninglessness is the "information" contained in them. For example, there is a circle on the ground. In the eyes of those who love mathematics, it may represent the number "0". In the eyes of writers, it is the letter "O". In the eyes of painters, it may represent the "start of an art painting". In the eyes of those who are studying Taoism, it may represent the "return of heaven, earth and all things", but in fact, it may just be a pit that a monkey farts out.
Think about it more according to this route, perhaps sound, color, number, and other things are meaningless, they are just "symbols" created by humans for convenience, and the so-called mathematics, physics, and science are probably just various "imaginations" defined by humans for their ignorance.

“Uh~”
Suddenly, Dr. Zhang was stunned for a moment. For some reason, a sentence from the other party made him think of so many strange things. He quickly shook his head and threw these unrealistic ideas out of his mind.
The most urgent task now is to quickly figure out the numbers in front of you...
So let's get back to the point. As I said just now, if the number in front of me does not represent a number, then what does it represent? There are too many possibilities, such as strokes, letters, pinyin, and even "key sorting on the piano", which is to use notes such as "Do, Rui, Mi" to play a tone with the piano, and then the lyrics are corresponding to the syllables... Uh... But this method of solving puzzles is too weird. It is probably possible to put it in a music school. If it is in a mental hospital, who can think of it, and there is also a "Moss code". No one in a thousand people can do that.
So Dr. Zhang thought for a while and found that under so many possibilities, he could hardly find any clue. So he turned his gaze to Liu Yi on the side again and asked, "Hey~ Have you come up with anything..."
Liu Yi was putting his finger into his nostrils and digging. At the same time, he also replied: "Well... at the beginning I thought of the order of letters. The beginning of "12" represents "L", but the subsequent "324" cannot be translated. Then I thought about the syllables again~ but the numbers here have been ranked up to 9~ so there is no chance... Finally, I thought about the number of strokes of the man... Uh... With 324 strokes, how could it be Chinese characters? I guess a talisman can draw dozens of evil-proof talismans... So... the only thing I can understand now is the last question mark..."
Dr. Zhang nodded. In fact, when the other party just proposed that "number" represents "a sentence", he thought of these things. Of course, those inferences were not valid... In addition, he also tried the 3-by-3 arrangement method of the nine-grid grid, but except for some crooked line segments, he got nothing, and there was also the usual technique in spy war movies. There was a book, and each number corresponded to "which page", "which line" and "which word" connected together to make a complete paragraph. However, at this moment, there was not even a book beside the two, so where could they compare...
Sudden
"No..."
Dr. Zhang muttered in a low voice as if he had thought of something, and looked up at Liu Yi opposite him... At this moment, the other party finally dug out a piece of booze from his nose, and there was a long snot behind it, and it was rolling into small balls in circles on his fingertips. After that... don't panic, he didn't eat, and then he just bounced his two fingers, not knowing where it went. "I won't be able to memorize a whole book in my mind..." Dr. Zhang thought.
After that, he quickly confirmed his thoughts with the other party.
The result...the response was
"You have watched too many movies. Is the kind you are talking about "super memory"? It's "nervous vision", and I'm a "psychotic"! Do you understand "psychotic"?"
The other party waved his arms unhappily and shouted, as if he had been inexplicably insulted.
...Okay, it seems that this idea is not true. There is no way. Dr. Zhang had to rub his eyes, helplessly clear all the guesses in his mind just now, and start over.
......
He looked at the board again, and the number was still there quietly.
“12▍324▍5667▍72▍4868▍6▍5298?”
First... he first put the symbol "?" out of the question, because "?" in general should represent questions, and the question mark should be left by the writer of this number, otherwise, Liu Yi and Dr. Zhang would have no entry point at all.
Next, there are partitions between each number, which is easy to understand. These intervals are used to divide the information represented between numbers.
For example, 1 and 2 at the beginning of the number are connected together, representing a "information". This information is independent, and the three numbers 2, 3, and 4 at the end are connected together, which is another information. It is like the number "2" represents a "丨" and the number "3" represents a shorter "-", the number "4" represents a longer "-", then 23 is a "ten" character, and 234 represents a "earth". Almost all languages in the world are established in accordance with this method.
Of course, this is just an analogy. Numbers do not necessarily represent strokes, but may also represent letters or the like.
"letter?"
At this time...Doctor Zhang must have thought of something again. He stared at a position in the middle of the row of numbers very seriously.
Between the two vertical lines of the partition, there is a very special number
