On the afternoon of August 18, in the guerrilla branch of Kaslai, Tracy, a temporary receptionist, held this strange letter in his hand and did not know what to do with it. She took it and looked left and right, and even took a few glances at the light bulb, which seemed to have only one postcard inside.

She used the letter as a fan, and after a few sharp blows, she tried to tear the letter open, when suddenly, she saw a savior, an elderly guerrilla who happened to return. She hurriedly shouted, "Senior Resus, let's see what to do with this strange letter." ”

"Oh, what's so strange?" Resuss, who had been a guerrilla for many years, walked towards the reception desk, put down his things for the time being, and took the letter and read it.

"The address of the letter is written here, but it is not written to anyone, maybe it is just an ordinary thank you letter, take it apart and take a look." With that, Resus opened the letter, a card

Fell out.

"Well, a big fish jumped out of the water. What does that mean. There are also words on the back. As he spoke, Resus turned the back of the postcard upside down, and on the back were three lines written:

At the top of the first line is written: "The weather is clear, and the white birds are flying." ”

The second line reads: "I would like to give you a box of oriental sweets." ”

The third line reads: Yesterday, after going to the Bodhisattva Hall in the south to worship his favorite Success, I sent this postcard to express my pious feelings.

Tracy's eyes widened: "What does this mean, it is to send candy, where is the candy?" ”

Retheus read the contents of the letter and said solemnly, "We should find Cassius at once, where is he?" ”

Two hours later, Cassius hurried back from outside, and after reading the handwriting on the envelope and the contents of the postcard, he anxiously asked, "Where is the candy box?" ”

Tracy stared at her with wide eyes and said, "I only received letters, not candy, did I make the postman greedy for ink?" ”

Cassius thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back." "Hurried out the door.

The meaning of the postcard was clear to Cassius. Duchamp made it clear that he wanted to come to Calvard to catch a big fish. And now, the big fish have surfaced.

The second sentence, most likely, was that the candy box, that is, the secret letter, had been mailed to his residence, which Cassius remembered had asked Duchamp if it was reliable.

Well, the real message should be in the candy box.

He hurried back to the apartment and asked the caretaker that there was indeed a package in the mail from Angorian today. He got the small package and couldn't help but smile when he looked at the words "Received by Estelle" written on it. For the sake of the Republic of Calvard, he had not been home for more than two months.

He walked back to his room and opened the package, which contained a box of shoddy smoked dried fish, made in Angorian. Ignoring the dried fish, he reached for the bottom of the box and pulled out a piece of paper.

The content of the paper was written in secret language, although he and Duchamp had not agreed on secret language before, but this letter was basically only he could understand the true meaning:

"Angler's Diary

In May, a rare carp was caught in the middle of the river with a soft hook, and yesterday, on the south side of the river, the same fish was caught with an iron hook, and although the origin is different, the species is exactly the same.

But if you compare the two fish carefully, there is still a difference in habits, and the one is lured by using bait, which is soft and weak. This one is standing in the fish pond, like a soil overlord.

The day before yesterday, when a sparrow was gathering at the top of a tree, one of them accidentally approached the fish pond, and the fish caught it with its own bait.

In order to better understand the habits and origin of this fish, night fishing is a compulsory course for anglers, and before fishing hard, go to the south to taste the Bodhisattva's favorite cuisine. ”

Cassius rushed to the guerrilla association with the package, and said to Tracy: "Immediately ask the branch guerrillas to suspend their work and return to the branch to stand by." Then he said to Resuss, "I am going to go to the Templar at once, and tell Tracy not to say anything about this postcard, and to ask if the Angorian branch has any notable events lately." ”

There are two large churches in Kasrai, one in the northern part of the city, known as the Great Church of Dawn. The other is in the south of the city and is called the Sacred Heart Basilica. Cassius hurried to the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, he went to a side door, said some code, and after a while the side door opened.

"Hey, Cassius, why did it come so suddenly?" In the stone chamber on the side of the sanctuary, a blonde nun greeted her.

"Sister Catherine, I have temporary new information here, this stronghold is influencing the general election, and there is a good chance that there will be an election result that you and I do not want to see."

"What kind of information is it? Is it accurate? Another monk named Marven asked.

"It's S's intelligence, judging by the tone, it seems that he has been in Angoriwen for a long time, and worryingly, he seems to be single-handedly investigating that mysterious stronghold."

"S's information!" The nun's eyes lit up, she pretended to be dissatisfied, pouted and said, "Cassius, you are always so pretending to be mysterious, as an ally, can't S's information be shown to us?" ”

Cassius weighed it, and in order to get support, he took out the postcards and paper.

Sister Catherine glanced at the words on the back of the postcard and said, "It's a code word again." The first sentence seems easy to guess, Mr. Bright from the Kingdom of Liber, well. He raised his eyebrows, proud of his cleverness, and had an expression waiting for praise on his face.

Cassius smiled: "That's right, anyone can see the first sentence, but what about the second sentence?" ”

"Mail a copy of Oriental candy for Mr. Cassius to take note of."

"Very well, what about the third sentence?"

"Go to the Bodhisattva Hall in the south to worship his favorite Success? It's definitely a code word, not a literal thing. ”

Cassius nodded, and said, "This is a hint that he is going to a place that is about to go, it should be a fairly famous place in the south of Angoreven, and perhaps the place he suspects, we only need to go to the local area to find out a little inquire." ”

"And a piece of paper." Catherine read the secret letter carefully, and commented, "The handwriting is very sloppy, and it seems to have been written in a hurry. You can guess a little bit about the contents, but I'm afraid only you know the true meaning. ”

Cassius nodded and said, "This letter was mailed directly to my residence from Angliati, and the time of sending it was the afternoon before yesterday. As for the contents of the letter, the meaning is clear. ”

In May, he took matters into his own hands and received information from a politician about the stronghold of Angorivin. The soft hook refers to the fact that he used some kind of inducement to obtain this information. And yesterday in the letter, that is, three days ago, he found ironclad evidence that a big man of the same identity in Angoruiwen was involved in this matter. Considering the status of the former, this one must be a member of parliament in the Angorean region. ”

"Congressman? It turned out to be such a high status, what do the next two sentences mean? ”

"It means that this councilor is an official member of the Mystic Order, and he used some kind of trickery to pull an important person who participated in the election into the water just three days ago, and that kind of bait is probably 'paradise'."
