Chapter 3: Sisterhood and Childly Infatuation [Act 6] (9)
The newsstand was run by a middle-aged man who had already made a fortune, with short pale blonde hair slightly white. Seeing that Xu Pingjun hurriedly took out the Imperial Mark, he showed a chuckle, and his voice was faintly complaining: "Miss H [165], if you don't come again, I will close." With that, he handed over the set of delicately framed paintings.
Not Rank! After Ping Jun carefully looked at the man's appearance and compared it with the personal photos of Ran Ke in his memory, a trace of regret suddenly appeared in his heart, but he still paid an amount higher than the price of the book, and replied lightly: "Please Mr. thank the child for me, it must be very difficult to go to the 'Ran Ke Office'." Then Huo Ran turned around and hurried away with the book [166]
I almost forgot that since the boy had been stealing on the street for a long time, he must have been in contact with the owner of the newsstand, so the boss must have been one of Rank's informants. And if the informant does not secretly disseminate information but openly responds to others, will not his identity and traces be exposed?
It wasn't until he rode in the carriage again and returned to the Charité Hospital safely that Ping Jun breathed a sigh of relief and carefully opened the album. Unexpectedly, no matter how much she turned the pages and examined them carefully, she could not find any information from the book, let alone a familiar piece of paper or cipher, except for some scenes circled by a pen in the book.
"Could it be that this guy can't fool me!?" Pingjun scolded in a low voice and slammed the book slammed, just eager to tear up the comic book that he bought at a high price immediately. Oh, and she remembered something, and hurriedly turned the pages again, and kept brushing the framed pictures—
In the first picture, the teacher's hat is circled;
In the second picture, the woman who is circled is sitting at a table waiting for a meal;
After that, all that was encircled was the scene where the father and son went out, and the black grid on the chess board where the father and son were playing......
After thinking for a moment, Ping Jun slapped his thigh suddenly, and was so happy that he almost wanted to shout!
It turned out that Ran Ke had revealed the recent situation of Liu and Cen - "hat" means the radical "宀" on the side of the Chinese character, and it happened to spell the Chinese character "An" with the woman; Those cartoon scenes of father and son going out actually hint that the two of them are about to be released, and as for the black grid on the chess board, he refers to the "j" of spades.
As a result, these identified fragments are clearly connected into one sentence: (The two) are safe, about to be released, Black J.
"What a cunning old thing, it's just as slippery as a loach and can't catch it......" Ping Jun tightened his eyes on the "Father and Son" album, looking at the increasingly rich twilight, and smiled with admiration and helplessness. However, as the carriage drew closer to the Charité Hospital, she remembered Professor Collinis, and felt faintly uneasy, so she secretly begged her friend to heed her blink and not show her feet.

"What do you mean...... Be your medical assistant? As Xu Pingjun expected, when she tried to contact Ran Ke and learn about the situation of Liu and Cen, Lan Yuwei, who was still recuperating in bed, sat up slightly straighter when she saw Professor Collinis bowing her head slightly, and asked curiously, "Miss Xu roughly conveyed your words after I woke up." Could it be that this is also Conrad's religion...... Recommendation from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Munich? ”
