Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology
Chapter 10 - Going To The Old Library"You can only go old school. You can't find the modern one. Ok?"
Emma nodded.
"Let go to the library." Amanda brought out her old model android phone and perform some action. This type of phone could only be found in the underdog's hand. No one in a normal family will use this type of phone. The world had long moved past android. The world was currently in the era of the Elementor.
Shortly, a rough almost broken self-driven car arrived. The car was also was outdated and never use. It had long been depreciated. But the bottom feeder of the society depends on it for their daily transport. Seeing the almost broken car. Emma had a bittersweet taste in his mouth. He had never used this type of car before. He usually looked down on those using these cars. 'How much will it take them to use a nice Elementor car? Why are they so stingy to themself?' That was his thought previously. But, now, he knew better.
They entered the almost broken car without uttering a word. Shortly, after traveling for ten minutes. The car stopped in front of an old circular building with few lights stands not far away from it. They alighted from the car and entered the library. Behind the counter, sat an old age woman with a lot of wrinkles on her face. The old woman was reading an old journal with a dim light on her table.
"Hello," Amanda said in a low voice.
The old woman raised her head when she heard Amanda's voice. "Hello, how may I help you"
"We'll like to borrow a couple of books for some time. Is it possible? Ma." Amanda said in a respectful tone. Emma stood still beside her without uttering a word.
"Oh, it's been a long time since I saw a young couple in the library. "The old woman looked surprised.
"Ma. …."
Amanda was interrupted before she completed her word.
"I don't care. I have received no visitors in the past few months. So. I'll make an exception. All the books you borrow from the library today will be free."
"Thank you… Where will I scan my bracelet."
"Oh, you don't need to bother about that. The machine had long been spoil. No one comes to this place again. So I don't bother repairing it. The books are only gathering dust on the shelf. Go, pick whatever books you like. Just return them when you're through with them." The old woman waved her hand, sending them away.
Quickly, both Emma and Amanda went to the bookshelf. Emma did not waste time. He picked all the books related to the subject needed. Emma picked from basic to advanced topics surprising Amanda. Though there were already many new editions for those books Emma picked, the difficultly of those topics should not be underestimated
[Choose thing related to mechanical engineer and programing language]
Emma nodded. Going from basic to advance. He moved from high school to college. Amanda was just following Emma like a robot. Her eyeball almost popped out from their socket. 'Is it going to sell this book?' Amanda shook her head. 'Impossible. He isn't foolish to do something like that. Could he?' She couldn't understand what Emma was doing. She thought Emma was here to pick a book or two. Now, she realized how wrong she was. She was totally wrong. After an hour, Emma had ransacked all the book related to things he needed. He parked everything together. The books were tall as a small mountain.
"Are you sure you are going to need all these books? There some book in there that would take you years for you to understand a bit of what they mean." Amanda persuaded.
Emma shook his head. "Don't worry. I know what am doing. Most of these books are meant for reference." He lied.
Amanda breathes a sigh of relief. 'It's good he's just using them for referencing.' "Ok"
Amanda assisted Emma in parking the book inside the cartons.
"Goodbye Ma. Thanks for the books." Amanda said with some difficulty.
The old woman raised her head and looked at the two couples with two big cartons in their hands. However, she did not talk. She ignored them and went back to read her journal.
Back at Emma's dilapidated house. Emma looked at Amanda with gratitude. "Thank you for today's help."
"Don't mention. All the book is free. So there isn't need for any pleasantries."
Emma smile and nodded. They chatted for some few minutes before Amanda left. The place had crept her out. She would have long gone. She doesn't want to appear rude to Emma. 'How could he leave in this fucking creeping place?' She thought. 'I guess the gang that was after him was not just a small gang.'
"Why don't you find a better place to live. This place is too dangerous." Amanda asked. Her toned filled with concern.
"I will." Emma looked at her straight in the eyes. "Thank you for your concern." Seeing that she couldn't change Emma's mind. She left the dilapidated building.
After Amanda left. Emma looked at all the cartons in dazed. 'How would I get it to the sanctuary?' He thought deeply.
[Start carrying. It would be an exercise for your useless fat body.]
Emma wanted to refute, but the word stuck in his throat. If he did not carry the load.. Who would help him? He shook his and carried the carton one after the other.
