With 6 bumps and blank spaces, this gives you 64 variations. It is more than enough to represent 26 English letters. The remaining symbols can be used to represent numbers and symbols.

In a sense, Braille, a way of recording information, is even better than any other written symbol invented by mankind so far in terms of the uniformity of characters, simplicity and learning.

Elan closed her eyes and frowned, tilting her head slightly, trying to fumble her way through the bumpy book.

"'No, you... Already··· There's no going back... Cheshire Cats··· Laughing... Right... Alice said... You've been... Jaya··· There's no going back. ’”

It may seem dense and disorganized, but if you touch it with your fingertips with a calm mind, there is a different world.

Completely different from visual information, without the complicated process of translating optical signals into words, and then translating them with memory, reading books through the sense of touch is like words directly entering one's consciousness.

As a person with normal vision, it has to be said that it is an extremely wonderful experience to be able to experience this kind of winding path, clearing the fog and suddenly opening up, and suddenly revealing a new world in front of you.

Nanali followed Ilan's hand and found the line of writing he had just fumbled with, her fingertips brushing lightly.

"Brother Yilan, not a word is wrong!" The girl said in surprise.

"Where, where, I probably won't be able to change a copy, I've read "Alice in Wonderland", so there are a lot of words I guess." Ilan scratched his head and said honestly.

"It's amazing to be able to do this in just one morning. My brother too, I learned it in a few days. It was just me, and after studying for months at the time, I was still stumbling to read. ”

As she spoke, Nanali looked dissatisfied with herself.

"No, it's not your fault, it's supposed to be the imperial brother who squeezed out the intelligence points that belonged to you at one time in the womb." Bai Mao said solemnly. "It's like my mother saved her brain capacity and left it to me."

"Is that so?"

"Hmm. This is equivalent exchange, material is immortal, and IQ is eternal. Every time there is one more genius in the world, there will definitely be a stupid person. ”

"Ah, do you think I'm stupid?" The girl protested.

"No, that's secondary, the point is that I'm a genius." Ilan rubbed Nanali's head and said earnestly. "Listen, is there a sound of little walnuts colliding in the skull? Kerakara, right? ”

The girl laughed loudly and struggled desperately. White Fur decisively used the cross choke and continued to ravage the other party. This trick was the old lady's usual skill when she was violent to him back then, and Bai Mao inherited it well.

No, this kid's strength is so weak that there is no pleasure at all. If the body of white hair is 100, Lelouch is about 5, and Nanali is about 0.5.

monsters are infinite.

didn't toss for a few seconds, and Shake S let go stupidly.

Torturing Karen should be a lot more fun, right?

Saki Shiko stood aside and didn't say anything, but her eyes were full of kindness when she looked at the brother and sister.

The young master was haunted during this time, and he was not often away from home, and Miss Nanali had difficulty moving, so it was inevitable that she would be lonely at home alone. And although this white-haired young master also has strange whereabouts, he makes up for the blank time that Lu Xiu is not there.

Nanali is very sensible, but this kind of "sensible" is also a product of helplessness, and the bad environment of survival makes her temperamental.

Compared to the appearance of a little adult, she now looks like a fourteen-year-old girl.

laughed without any scruples, quarreled with his brother, and made trouble. For her, happiness is as simple as that.

"But why does Brother Ilan want to learn Braille?" Panting slightly, Nanali finally regained her reserve.

"Well, it's always good to learn more." Ilan shrugged. "Who knows if it'll be used in the future?"

"I definitely won't need it."

"There is no such thing as a certainty."

Bai Mao has a certain obsessive-compulsive disorder for learning, due to his childhood experience.

The education of the emperor's children was mainly based on various tutors, supplemented by mothers.

What the? Father? You're kidding, right?

But the youkai, due to her animal-like instincts, is very disgusted by strangers touching her cubs.

For the fourth time, when she sent one of Ilan's tutors to the emergency room, the doctor regretfully announced, "I can't save it, it's cold early, it looks like it was blown up, but there is no gunpowder left, it's amazing." After that, the other teachers finally had a nervous breakdown. Weeping blood for the emperor to play the book, and ask the saint for mercy, we really can't teach this prince.

Or if you just kill me, it's only a matter of time before I can leave a whole corpse behind.

But it's also easy to understand, the youkai was sold to a foreign country alone, she doesn't know English, she can't communicate with others, she is afraid of these blonde and blue-eyed foreign devils, so she is fiercely wary of anyone, even hostile.

Therefore, before the age of nine, Bai Mao, due to the influence of his mother, was an out-and-out illiterate.

Except for the most basic Chinese, numbers, and addition and subtraction, my eyes are black and I don't understand anything. I can speak English, but I don't fold my writing.

Yilan now knows Qiē was self-taught during his years under house arrest.

Learn English with the guò Chinese-English dictionary first, and then read the books in the library with guò English.

Literature, Art, Foreign Languages, Philosophy, Law, Religion, History, Politics, Military, Psychology, Biography, Architecture, Medicine, Mechanics, Economics.

He has the time, and he has the brains to do it.

He was convinced that he needed this knowledge.

At that time, he just wanted to take the fool home.

But... Still a step too late······

"Brother Elan?"

Nanali noticed that Ilan hadn't said anything for a long time, and reached out and shook his arm.

"Huh? Ahh It's okay. ”

Ilan came back to her senses and looked at the girl in the wheelchair, lost again.

What does the royal brother think?

If it was just for revenge, and wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the ruined empire and the emperor's dead body, then Bai Mao decisively raised his hands and feet in favor, and prepared the finest champagne and waited for the time to open the bottle and clink glasses.

I hated that country, I hated that man, I wanted to destroy them, I couldn't breathe in this world with them, so I did it.

It's that simple, there are not so many excuses, and this is the logic of human behavior. But······

Create a wonderful world for Nanali?

Is that a reason?

Isn't Nanali here?

You can see it, you can touch it, it's not a memory, it's not a dream, she is here and now, she doesn't need to pursue it, it's by her side, and she won't go anywhere······

Sitting in a wheelchair, waiting for my brother to come home in the evening, and talking to her.

Simple couldn't be simpler.

Ilan sighed and touched Nanali's head, but the girl protested.

"It's not a walnut!"

"Grapes?"

"Watermelon!"

"Raisins?"

"Watermelon!"

"How's the melon seeds?"

"Why is it getting smaller?!"

"What about oranges?"

"Hmmm······" Nanali frowned, wondering if there was enough space in her skull for a single fruit.

Seeing Nanali's appearance of drilling the horns, Ilan suddenly envied Lelouch.

Brother Huang, your fool is waiting for you to come home.

Alive······

Sighing, Ilan picked up the book again, closed her eyes, and continued to stumble and fumble.

"'No.' Alice... Angry··· Said. In the eye sockets... Filled... Tears... The Mad Hatter... Yes... He's coming to pick me up... Definitely... Pick me up ·······"

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Looking at the table full of applications to join the group, Lelouch pinched the bridge of his nose painfully and forced himself to cheer up.

This is still the cover letter that Diethardt has screened first, and 95% of it has been stuck. But there's still too much left, if there is anyone who can help······

That kid said he wanted to take a vacation, but he really took a vacation. After returning from the liberation front, he very consciously postponed his vacation by one day without any discount. In order to ensure that his vacation was sufficient and fulfilling, the second combat force of the Black Knights, ———— Red Moon Kalian, was also forced to take a leave of absence on the grounds of "ensuring a good mental state".

People don't really want to take a vacation at all!

In other words, this kid is now refreshed and teasing Karen, and I'm going to be here, buried in endless work······

After a short break of five minutes, Lelouch sighed and pressed the pass button on the table.

"Next."

With that, he put on his helmet again and picked up a resume from the table.

The door was entered by a man in his forties with a nervous look. Finally seeing the legendary ZERO, he swallowed his saliva, habitually put his hands behind his back, and puffed out his chest.

"Hikaru Ogami?" Lelouch was right on the photo and his face.

"Yes!"

"Soldiers?"

"Yes! Before the war, he served in the 4th Ship Squadron in Yokosuka Port, with the rank of major. ”

"Hmm." Lelouch nodded, he was still quite satisfied.

After Diethardt's primary, most of the people who can stay are capable people. The soldier should also be real, this kind of posture and tone cannot be disguised.

"Do you have combat experience?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head unwillingly.

Full of confidence, he came to see ZERO with enthusiasm, but he didn't want the other party's first question to block him speechless.

"No······ But I served in the Navy for eleven years! I..."

"Why..." Lelouch interrupted him. "Why is there no combat experience? Even if Japan pursues peace, it should be at least once, shouldn't it? ”

Lelouch actually knew the answer, and he asked this just to make the other party completely abandon the past.

“··· We··· No, Prime Minister Xuanwu Shumu, he ordered us, surrender... Surrender without a ······"

The man's eyes were full of humiliation.

"What about yourself? What do you think? ”

"I want to fight!" The man replied categorically. "I want to resist to the end, even if I know I'm going to lose. To be able to die under the enemy's guns is happier than the current appearance of no one or a ghost! As long as it's for Japan, I'm willing..."

"Mr. Ogami."

Lelouch sighed.

"Do you still think so?"

"Yes!"

"Then you can go back, the Black Knights don't need you."

"Mr. ZERO! Why?! The man stepped forward and asked loudly. Don't you need military personnel? ”

"Yes, I do not like soldiers, to be precise, 'Japanese soldiers'." Lelouch put his hands in front of him and said unhurriedly. "Our revolution is not aimed at defeat, for the glory of death, at the 'guns of the enemy'. We do this with only one purpose ———— win. The Black Knights need warriors who are not afraid of death, but they never need cannon fodder who are deliberately looking for death. Mr. Ogami, if you want to make amends for your unsuccessful suicide seven years ago, this is not the place you should be. The Black Knights don't welcome kamikazes, they don't need Banzai Chargers, and we don't have jade crushing here. If you still have this kind of thought and refuse to let go, I think you might as well make a bomb at home and rush into the Doge's palace with it. ”

The man's face suddenly turned red, and he wanted to refute but was speechless.

"Mr. Ogami, do you want to watch Japan die in glory, or do you want to see it reborn in the ashes?"

The man's whole body shook when he heard this, and his heaving chest gradually calmed down.

“······ You're right... SORRY FOR WASTING YOUR TIME, MR. ZERO. The man bowed, turned around and walked away without saying a word.

"There's one more question."

Lelouch stopped him again.

"Sue me, who are you, is the land under your feet Japan, or is it ·····"

The man's hand rested on the doorknob, did not move, and his head drooped.

"I just... A certain ELEVEN. Here... It's the 11th district. Ogami whispered, painfully accepting the fact.

"Would you like to start all over again? To reclaim your name, for this land, for tomorrow. Abandon the past qiē, glory and shame, as a new person, start over. ”

"Yes."

"Well, you're in luck." Lelouch said with satisfaction.

Ogami hurriedly turned around and looked at ZERO in surprise.

"You mean, I..."

"No, you're not yet a member of the Black Knights, and you're not qualified yet. But I'm going to put together a rookie training camp where you can go back and rebuild, and you'll get a chance to go back to the battlefield and prove that you're not a piece of waste. After that, yes, you can be one of us, and you can proudly tell others that you are a warrior. What do you think? ”

"Yes!" The tail didn't say anything more, and it was another standard bow. "Where am I going to report?"

"Go out and turn right, there's a man named Fan Yao waiting for you there."

Lelouch raised his hand to see off the guest.

After the other party went out, he picked up another resume.

Caterina S. D. Bell, a native of Britannia.

Twenty-nine years old, linguist, Catholic, pacifist, convinced of the equality of all living beings and opposed racism. She used to be the translator of a certain marquis in her own country, but she was dismissed for a mistake in her speech, offended her employer, and her resume was hacked, and no one dared to hire her again, and she was helplessly exiled to the 11th district.

Fluent in six languages, he is familiar with the customs and cultures of different parts of the world, as well as the differences in values between different ethnic groups.

Hmmm... At her age, this is no easy feat. She should be able to use her skills in the future.

They are all very good people. If it weren't for his own rebellion and recruiting wise men from all over the world, Lu Luxiu really didn't know that there were so many talented people in the world.

The qualifications and knowledge of these people are actually a hundred times better than the active members of the Black Knights. The so-called reinvention is nothing more than a process of destroying their past and reshaping their ideology by forceful means.

After the baptism of war, these real elites will gradually replace the militia in the organization, and the Black Knights will become a real elite after the blood. The order is static, the killing is decisive, an iron-blooded army loyal to ZERO, a group of fanatical believers willing to give their lives for the so-called "ideal".

At the same time, it can also be used to isolate them from the organization, further observe their abilities, and weed out some people who are not in the right mind or lack of potential before moving in.

Right.

Needless to say, Ilan will also "handle" them.

Just like usual.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"Aoba, Tanaka, Fujiwara ... Well. ”

Yilan walked on the road of the concession, crossed out three names with a marker, and snorted with satisfaction.

Fan had just reported to him in a panic that the three poor fellows had "fallen into an ambush in Britannia" at the place where they received supplies from Kyoto, and had died honorably.

But the good old people didn't know that there was no "Kyoto aid" waiting to be received today, and the truck they drove out had already been manipulated by the second master.

The Black Knights have fewer and fewer two-five boys, and they are getting more and more efficient, which is indeed a good thing. However······ But the source of joy for the white hair is drying up.

But this is also something that can't be helped, who told himself to do a business with his head pinned to his waist?

Elan pulled out his phone and glanced at the map. There were less than five hundred meters left ———— Staffield's house, where he was headed. Looking up, I saw a row of iron fences in the distance, and the white manor behind it.

That's right, even on holidays, the stalker still hasn't forgotten his Miss Kalen. Bai Mao came to visit with a fearless spirit, and by the way, he met his uncle and aunt or something.

In other words, this house is marked on the map, and the Stafield family should be a character, right? Earl?

This is a little difficult to do, with his current identity as a grass citizen, it is really difficult to enter the door of Lao Taishan's house and flirt with the earl's daughter······

No matter, if it doesn't work, just flip the balcony. Well, that seems a little more emotional.

Kalian must be very moved, Elan thought so, nodded with satisfaction, and once again affirmed her IQ.

In the spirit of both work and entertainment, Bai Mao conscientiously turned the page backwards of the small notebook, preparing to arrange the death of the next unlucky egg before meeting the girl.

"Huh?"

Ilan looked at the name for a moment, and his footsteps involuntarily stopped.

"Ahh That's a ······ What should come will come······"

Ilan sighed and drew a circle around Shinichiro Tamaki's name, indicating that the brother was waiting to be dealt with.

"Later... No one calls me 'the second master' anymore······" Ilan was suddenly a little lonely.

Put away the unlucky little notebook, put your hands back in your pockets, and slowly walked forward.
