Jiang Hui quickly searched for the youth board on the optical computer.
Fortunately, the communication software in this interstellar world is similar to that on the blue planet. Things like the youth section are also relatively commonly used sections, and the methods can be found with a simple search.
However, because she was not very proficient in operating tools like optical computers and the functional modules were relatively complicated, Jiang Hui spent a long time before successfully switching the adult version of the optical computer to the youth version.
After switching to the youth version of the interface, the entire screen becomes simpler and no longer as dazzling as before. It is neatly divided into several categories, such as recommendations, learning, entertainment, professional, etc. There are also special modules such as mecha and potions that are only available in StarCraft, which looks quite novel.
Jiang Hui naturally chose the Getting Started Guide area first, which, as the name suggests, is a guide for beginners, teaching teenagers who have just received the optical computer how to use it correctly.
Because the information in the interstellar age is so developed, young people are inevitably exposed to all aspects of social knowledge at an early age. It is normal to have your own optical computer at an early age. However, sometimes it also means a lack of autonomy, which can easily lead to a wrong path.
Of course, the interstellar government still has relevant effective measures in this regard to prevent young people from being delayed in their studies and life due to early exposure to optical computers. Generally speaking, the earliest age allowed for young people to have optical computers is around eight years old, that is, after entering elementary school.
Then, in order to prevent children from being exposed to various negative information too early, some information screening will also be done in the special section they use, which is the so-called youth section. Without special application from parents, teenagers cannot cross this boundary and enter the adult version.
The original body was only about 15 years old, so it should only be possible to use the youth section. However, her situation was rather special. After she turned 14, her parents died, and she was adopted by her family, and she had no specific guardian. She was a semi-independent minor as defined by the Executive Government.
These teenagers usually have no parents to teach them, and they have no one to rely on. If their access to the optical computer is restricted, and their access to knowledge is restricted, then no one will teach them. Therefore, most families or political regions will apply to open the adult section for them, that is, the full access to the optical computer.
Therefore, what Jiang Hui saw at the beginning was the normal section for adults, with no restrictions on information communication and functions, and the same confidentiality rights as adults.
Unless they are certain special people required for governance or she allows it herself, no one can access her computer records at will.
This time, she spent half a day watching. This time, nothing else bothered her, and Jiang Hui had a thorough understanding of many things in this world. Combined with the remaining memories of his original body, he also had a general understanding of the situation in this interstellar era.
After reading for an afternoon, Jiang Hui's biggest feeling about this place is that this is truly an era of extreme information transparency, and individuals have basically no secrets in front of the state apparatus.
Of course, the Empire will not expose personal confidential information at will, and has also formulated a series of laws and regulations to strictly protect the privacy and information security of every citizen.
Jiang Hui also learned that this world is also a very martial era, with frequent wars against foreign races, a highly developed military and political system, and a very high status for soldiers in the country. Countless young people are willing to devote their lives to the empire and sacrifice their lives to defend the empire's border security.
However, most of these turbulent events occurred in border areas or certain high-risk battlefields, and ordinary people were not greatly affected.
The resident galaxy where he lives now and the inner galaxy where he lived in the past are relatively safe and stable, and the areas are strictly controlled and managed by the capital star.
If nothing unexpected happens, she will probably be able to live a relatively stable life.
So her previous thought of whether to engage in ancient Chinese language research might actually be a good idea. Because she has a foundation, she might be able to learn it well.
Alas, she was thinking too far ahead. Anyway, for the time being, she was not worried about such things... Jiang Hui felt that she seemed to have forgotten something very important, but she couldn't remember it for some reason, so she had to give up.
Before she knew it, it was already night. It turned out that she needed something to do to make time go by. If she stayed in the space she dreamed of today, she would probably go crazy in just a few days.
After Jiang Hui had dinner, she simply washed up and returned to her room. However, according to her habit, it was not yet time to go to bed.
She didn't want to waste her time on emptying her brain, so she casually took out a leather-bound book from the drawer and planned to read it before going to bed.
… She said that the book looked strangely familiar.
It was something in the original owner's memory. She hadn't fully digested it yet, so she didn't react immediately. But after turning a few pages and seeing the contents clearly, Jiang Hui vaguely recalled some fragmented memories, which gradually became clearer.
In the interstellar age, the flow of information has reached a level that can no longer be described as explosively developed. The entire society has long passed the physical age and entered a highly electronic age.
Things like books are basically treated as data and sold in electronic form. Very few booksellers use traditional printing methods to print physical books for sale.
After all, these raw materials and craftsmanship are ancient, the cost is much higher, and they are not easy to carry. They are usually expensive products purchased by people with academic research needs.
Jiang Hui's parents are both grassroots soldiers and are not involved in academic research, so there are naturally no such things in their home, but this book is the only exception.
When Jiang's father joined the army, it was a time of war and the entire interstellar situation was unstable, so he was specially transferred to the border to serve as a defense force for a long time.
He was young at that time and didn't understand many things, so he was a little confused when he went to the battlefield. Fortunately, there was a senior who led him through a very difficult period, so he was able to survive the melee.
Later, Jiang's father recorded what he saw and heard during this period in a book, and added some more to it sporadically, so it really became a documentary.
Although he didn't have time to add content later, Jiang's father still carried this book with him for the rest of his life. After he died, the book was collected by his comrades, inspected by the army, and sent back to the Jiang family, and then it came into Jiang Hui's hands.
When Jiang Hui got the book, some long-lost related memories involuntarily came to his mind. Finally, he couldn't help but touch the leather book that had been touched countless times by its two generations of owners, and felt a little emotional.
She opened it.
