Crack the password

(October 3) countdown to the 88th day

Mizuki Town in early autumn is a bit cooler than City C.

This ancient town, which has been pressed by time on pause, is quiet and peaceful, like an old man who does not care about the world, living in a corner 15 kilometers west of City C, watching the townspeople who go back and forth on the bluestone streets with joy or sadness.

On this afternoon, a young woman appeared on the streets of the town, a pair of white flats stepping briskly on the bluestone slab, not hurrying, letting the autumn sun hit her pink-like face after the rain.

If the town has any memory, it will remember that more than 10 days ago, there was a woman with a similar face to her, who also walked on the streets of the town like this.

The current woman is Yao Xiaoyi.

She succeeds in cracking the clues left by her sister with a tragic death pose. Yao Xiaofei jumped into the Wansheng Building in City C and made a weird pose in the air. Yao Xiaoyi carefully checked this posture, and through the slow camera, she found that her sister was unscrewing the cap of the mineral water bottle. This discovery helped her successfully crack the death code left by her sister.

At the moment when Yao Xiaofei's body was about to touch the ground, her hands spread out into a straight line, and her right hand firmly held a mineral water bottle, the cap of the bottle had been opened, and water flowed out of the bottle; Her legs were spread at an angle of about 45 degrees, and a belt that was noticeably too long dragged behind her.

Yao Xiaoyi looked at her sister's strange posture lying on the ground countless times, and understood that this deliberate body language was what her sister wanted to tell her. Is the mineral water bottle with the lid unscrewed related to water or the bottle? After noticing the action of screwing the cap, Yao Xiaoyi confirmed that it was related to water, otherwise the action of screwing the cap would be redundant. The outstretched arms and separated legs should be a "big" word on the surface, but considering the obviously long belt, what if the belt is also considered a part of the body? Yao Xiaoyi suddenly realized that this is a "wood" word. A wooden word, a water word, so is it water and wood, or wood and water, or a combination of water and wood, such as the word "Mu", such as the word Jie? Does this anagram represent a person, a place, or a building or something?

Yao Xiaoyi repeated repeatedly, and suddenly thought of a place called Shuimu Town, and remembered that her sister had said that a college friend had invited her to Shuimu Town for a vacation, and asked her to take care of a wooden building in the town. Yao Xiaoyi suspects that it is this Shuimu Town that hides the secrets left by her sister.

It is not difficult to find out where the wooden building is, and along this bluestone road, it will end there.

Standing at the gate of the wooden building, Yao Xiaoyi glanced at the wooden building, which was as old as the ancient town. As soon as he pushed open the courtyard door, two empty wine bottles fell behind the door and shattered on the ground. Walk through the weedy corridor between the gate connecting the courtyard and the gate on the first floor, and with a slight push, the gate on the first floor opens.

Quite different from the old looking exterior, the interior of the room is completely decorated, and all kinds of modern homes are ready, but it is covered with thick dust due to lack of care. On the front of the main hall on the first floor, there is an oil painting, which is Leonardo da Vinci's famous "Mona Lisa", which is huge in size and occupies more than half of the wall.

Yao Xiaoyi was immediately attracted by this huge oil painting. She stood in front of the oil painting, silently watching the Mona Lisa's smile, as if trying to find the answer she wanted through the eyes of the person in the painting, which hid countless secrets. What she didn't know was that just over 10 days ago, her sister had been standing here, and she had been like her, silently staring at the mysterious person in the painting.

Yao Xiaoyi glanced at the kitchen on the left side of the main hall and the bathroom on the right, from the built-in escalator in the main hall to the corridor on the second floor, first checked the two bedrooms on the left side of the corridor, and then came to the right and entered a master bedroom. This bedroom is larger than the two on the left, with a bathroom and a small sauna steam room separated by wooden panels. On the wall to the right of the bedroom, there is a secret door.

Push open the secret door, and there is the study. When I stepped into the study, I immediately recognized the makeup bag that my sister left on the desk. She guessed correctly, her sister was going to guide her to Mizuki Town and find this wooden building.

She sat on a chair that matched the desk, stroking the makeup bag left by her sister, wanting to cry without tears, guessing that it was here that her sister finished putting on the last makeup in her life, left Shuimu Town, and climbed to the top of the Wansheng Building in City C.

What happened to her sister that made her make the decision to die bravely? What do you want to tell yourself when you lead yourself here?

Yao Xiaoyi looked at the study again.

The wall facing the bedroom door in the study is full of bookshelves, and only a small movable door is embedded in the center of the bookshelf, which connects to the balcony outside. The upper edge of the bookshelf is only twenty or thirty centimeters from the roof. The bookshelves are divided into five or six tiers at equal distances, and they are filled with books in different categories. In the middle of the study is a desk with a desktop computer. In the corner of the wall of the study, a wooden hanger was erected.

If my sister wanted to leave something in this wooden building, the study should be the best place, but Yao Xiaoyi didn't find anything unusual. Yao Xiaoyi took out a note, on which was a string of numbers she had written down, which her sister had left in her palm in a hurry, and the handwriting was very sloppy, and it was obviously not complete.

Yao Xiaoyi has made a variety of permutations and combinations of this set of numbers, but has not been able to find the pattern. Now she is even more convinced that this string of numbers has an important connection with this wooden building, and even with this study. She read the numbers out loud word by word, "2-8-2-9-3-1-3-5-6-3-5-7-3-8", but she still couldn't find the mystery.

She shook her head helplessly, pushed open the movable door connecting the study to the balcony, and came to the balcony. A set of wooden chairs sat in the corner of the balcony, dusty, and a deep finger scratch left on the tabletop. This scratch was obviously left not long ago, could it be that my sister left it?

Yao Xiaoyi thought that since her sister had something to say to herself, why didn't she leave the words in a place that she could see at a glance in the wooden building, such as on the desk, but took the trouble to leave a digital codeword?
