Chapter 46 I also saw
It is cipher text.
Obviously, when two people are in trouble, they will use this confidential method to pass information, and the other party will check it out if something is wrong.
Looking at the two pieces of paper, Lynch and Natalie could imagine that after Ms. Maya finished writing the encrypted document, she suddenly broke down and wrote her plea for help in ordinary words. But he regained his composure later, nailed the document under the table, collected all the information related to the Best Tunnel, and left the newspaper office.
“This happened after May 11th.” Lynch said with certainty. “No one in the newspaper mentioned that Maya had a rancid smell. In other words, she sneaked in again and stayed. While downloading the information, she also took away all the documents related to the Best Tunnel. On the 13th, she asked Martha to send a photo, and her whereabouts are unknown after that. "
"Why did she take away this information? She wanted to keep it secret. ”
"No, absolutely not. The paper is not very light. If you want to keep it secret, it is safer to throw it into the steam engine room and burn it on fire instead of risking taking it away. So I feel that maybe other people are looking for those things too."< br>
"If she doesn't want people to find her, she can still burn her." Officer Natalie asked in confusion.
"Well, so I don't want others to get it, and I can't burn it..." Lin Qi lightly smacked his palm, "I understand, she must be threatening the other party. Hiss, she is probably hiding it on her own initiative. , those information are used to save lives, what the hell happened.”
There was no answer. The two of them stared at the two documents on the desk and fell into silence for a while.
Everything that happened, the whereabouts of Maya, the cause of Downey's death, the secrets behind the Best Tunnel, and the weird mysteries that caused her disappearance and Downey's death, are probably hidden in these two cipher texts inside.
But I just can’t read it.
It was really infuriating. The police officer punched the note lightly, bit her lip and said: "I have come across encrypted documents before, and I don't understand them at all. It's too complicated. I would rather fight head-on."< br>
"Actually, I don't understand either, but I heard that ciphertext is generally divided into four categories. Most of these numbers and letters are encrypted with ciphertext." Of course Lynch was referring to what he heard from the Internet in his previous life, "Find If you know the encryption rules of the codebook, you can read the contents. "But I'm afraid only the two of them know what the codebook is."
Lin Qi squinted his eyes, looked around the office, and said slowly: "Let's simulate this note. Normally, of course, I can write a message in advance and then put it here, but if there is an emergency where I need to leave a message for help, situation, I was not sure where I would be before. I couldn't count on having the secret book at hand. The only certainty was that I had to be in the office when I left the message, so keeping a secret book in the office would ensure that I could Good luck with the message."
"But can't you carry the secret book with you?" The police officer frowned, "I have encountered it once before, and the cultists carry the secret book with them."
"The two of them are not special agents of the secret police department, nor are they cultists who dare not see the light. The two of them are just journalists. It is already an exaggeration to agree on a password to communicate. If you make another secret book and carry it with you, then You need to doubt their identity and occupation.”
"It makes sense, so the secret book is probably in this room. In order to facilitate the other party to check it on the spot, the secret book should not be taken away."
Officer Natalie also followed Lynch's example and patrolled The room immediately showed a wry smile. The mess here was really terrible: "Without other clues, it's impossible to guess which one is the code book."
Lin Qi frowned and walked slowly in the office. Pacing, he rehearsed in his mind how Maya left a message for Donnie.
When Officer Natalie saw it, she immediately shut her mouth consciously and followed Lynch with her sword in hand without saying a word.
The two walked around the office several times. Lynch stopped by the bookcase several times and flipped through the books and papers inside. Finally, he shook his head and left again, but just turned around and took two steps. His eyes lit up and he quickly turned back.
Officer Natalie subconsciously held her breath and looked expectantly.
"What a coincidence. Haha, it would be impossible to guess it on other occasions, but it's not necessarily the case now." Lynch pointed to her nose, "Since the rancid smell is so easy to contaminate, even the chair she sat on will be contaminated. Yes, did she get it when she compared it with the code book? "
"His, yes" To the mountain of paper.
They were all messy newspapers and documents. I smelled them briefly, but there was no obvious rancid smell. A few of them did have a little stain on them, but the smell was very light, and they were probably just touched a few times while looking for tunnel information.
The next step is the bookcase.
As soon as they opened the bookcase door, they felt happy.
It smelled bad, and it was noticeable. There is no need to touch the books in the bookcase when cleaning documents. The smell of putrid smell here already shows that Lynch has found the right idea.
So he turned into an olfactory animal again. The scene of the two of them lying next to the bookcase and sniffing was so beautiful. Lynch felt that it was lucky that no one was around to see it, otherwise he would be embarrassed and would have to wear the clothes again. It can be relieved by returning to my hometown.
However, the shame was still rewarded, and the two of them actually found the two most smelly books from the cabinet.
The Geography of the Rhine City and the History of the Fifth Age of Rand, two thick volumes.
“It’s actually possible to find it.” The police officer looked at Lynch with complicated eyes, a bit of surprise and admiration. She bit her lip and whispered, “How did you think of it? ”
"I'm a detective."
Lynch shrugged and opened the geography.
144B10F78V3C……
It would be much easier to find the code book. The level of encryption in this world is still far behind that of my hometown, at least it won't be too outrageous.
Numbers? Maybe corresponding to the page number.
Letters? Convert to a number, perhaps corresponding to the number of rows.
Another number, which word is this?
Then there are letters again, but each letter is closer to the front and converted into a smaller number. Is it the position of the letters in the word?
People’s passwords are made up of words. You are not too lazy to just look for letters to spell them out.
While muttering, Lin Qi searched for it. However, after searching a few, he realized something was wrong and couldn't spell the words at all.
I switched to the second book and checked it again using the same method, but what I got was still just a bunch of meaningless letters.
Lin Qi frowned. Did he break the password incorrectly, or did he find the wrong secret book? If this idea is wrong, it will be troublesome.
Full of expectations, his heart began to become uneasy, allowing Lynch to fully experience the feeling of worrying about gains and losses. He forced himself to calm down and cracked it again.
Nothing has changed, it still doesn’t form a word.
“Don’t worry.” The police officer comforted her softly, “If it’s neither of these two books, we’ll look for it again, maybe there’s something missing.”
"Wait, two books?"
Lin Qi suddenly realized the problem. It should have been more urgent at the time, and Maya shouldn't have had time to read other books. So why are there flavors in both books?
“I understand, you should use both books.”
Lynch took a deep breath, opened the two books together, and tried a few more times, until an idea flashed. He arranged the pages of the two books one by one, and then used the same method to crack the letters one by one. One is written on paper.
There are five paragraphs in total, all very short. The first paragraph made Lynch’s scalp numb.
"Everyone who sees it will die, that damn monster, damn it, I saw it too."
I saw a friend who hated little Martha. I think about a ten-year-old child whose father died early and his mother was doting on him, and he grew up in a slum. If his outlook on life is distorted to this extent, it’s not bad at all.
And if you are obedient and sensible from the beginning, then why write anything else? It is only when you start to offend others that you develop the fun later.
