The book didn't ntion anything about it either.
Tang Xian thought it might be worth checking out the tro station; perhaps, there could be so clues found there.
Although the city had died, it seed that fresh worlds always had sothing interesting to discover.

Departnt stores, Toy City.
Tang Feiji precisely located the Rubik's cube stall.
He really went out of his way to get the treasure.
Aside from Rubik's cubes, there were also so tal music boxes on the display shelves.
The operating principle was actually spring-driven; by twisting the music box in different ways, the trajectory of the spring's rotation would change, and so would the music it played.
Although the principle was simple and ancient, the benefit was that children could easily play with it without needing a power source.
As early as 1950, this type of wind-up box had beco widespread in Hong Kong.
The music box was tal and appeared to be sowhat rusty.
Tang Feiji wouldn't let Tang Xiaojiu and Tang Suoye touch the Rubik's cube, so Tang Suoye just played with the music box instead.
She casually twisted the music box, listening to various sounds coming out of it, and found it quite amusing.
Tang Xiaojiu heard it and said,
"Suoye, I can hum this song too, I'll hum it for you."
As a human, Tang Suoye had so common knowledge of humanity and was curious about how Tang Xiaojiu knew music from the Human World.
She nodded her head, and Tang Xiaojiu started humming the tune.
The lody was light and cheerful, truly matching the one from the music box.
Seeing Tang Xiaojiu fixed on the box, Tang Suoye handed the music box to Tang Xiaojiu.
"Thank you, Suoye. I'll give you this in return."
Tang Xiaojiu was holding a teddy bear in her arms.
Tang Suoye smiled and made a gesture to show she liked it.
Then Tang Suoye also began picking out gifts for Tang Xiaojiu, who continued to fiddle with the music box.
She randomly turned it, listening to a variety of tunes inside, silently morizing them.
"Children will be children, even the toys they play with are so childish."
Tang Feiji didn't care much about the two little girls; he was just overwheld by the pile of Rubik's cubes, unable to figure out which seven held the treasure, so he also glanced over at the two little girls.
Tang Xiaojiu didn't mind either; as long as Uncle Feiji still let her ride with him, she'd play along.
Although Uncle Feiji could be quite silly.
Playing with the music box, Tang Xiaojiu thought it was too interesting; the songs it played were all different.
She just casually twisted the box, no longer rembering the order, just turning it at will.
Suddenly, the lody stopped.
The sound from the box lost all sense of rhythm.
It was ting, ting ting, not resembling any lody; it seed more like aningless tapping on sothing.
Tang Xiaojiu originally wanted to change it; this song wasn't pleasant at all to listen to.
But the sound caught Tang Suoye's attention.
She made a gesture, signaling Tang Xiaojiu not to move.
Ding, ding ding, ding ding...
As a test subject from the evolution area, Tang Suoye didn't have knowledge of the sophisticated spy techniques of the evolution area.
But Akasi was the best scout in the entire evolution area, often infiltrating other strongholds to gather intelligence, which required so spy language.
Such as Morse Code.
The organization hadn't taught Tang Suoye, but Akasi had.
This ting, ting ting sound was clearly Morse Code.
When all the sound had stopped, Tang Suoye sorted out her mories.
And pieced together a sentence:
"The password for the stronghold's gate is—560205278."
She didn't know what the stronghold's gate was or where it was located; she simply morized the sentence silently.
