Chapter 710: Cracking the Code
"Uncle, it's nothing, let's take a look."
After the old man asked, he heard Bai Yi purse his lips and replied to the old man with a smile.
"Oh."
The old man nodded lightly and sat back in the chaise longue.
"Then you can look at it casually, and if you need anything, just call me."
Bai Yi also smiled and nodded to the old man, and then slowly walked to the edge of the bookshelf on the side.
At this time, I followed Bai Yi closely every step of the way, and when I saw her walk away, I also followed to the bookshelf.
"I said, girl, what are we doing here? I still want to hurry up and see how I can go into the Xinhua bookstore to find clues. ”
To tell you the truth, although we have figured out what the "No. 35 Minsheng Road" is. And there are also thrilling successes to get out.
But the most important thing is that we couldn't enter the Xinhua bookstore to find clues about the earth dog, and I didn't know why I followed Bai Yi into this dilapidated little bookstore at this time.
"Although this place also sells books, it doesn't match the Xinhua bookstore we are going to at all!"
I reached out and took out a copy of "Postpartum Care for Sows" from the bookshelf, flipped through it randomly, and whispered to Bai Yi again
Bai Yi's eyes had been searching the bookshelf for a long time, and after hearing me say this, she turned her gaze to me.
"What about the note?"
Bai Yi asked in a whisper, and I didn't pause, I reached out from the pocket of my underwear and took out the small plastic bag containing tin foil.
"What do you see below?"
Bai Yi pointed to the bottom of the tin foil and whispered to me again.
"Isn't that just a bunch of numbers?"
Under the tin foil are indeed the numbers carved by sharp objects, and after careful identification, it can be seen that these numbers are divided into four lines and four groups, which are.
118-1080-1143-2645-11 "What do you think these numbers will represent?" ”
After Bai Yi asked in a low voice again, I immediately grinned and bit my lip hard, not that I was stupid, but I was left to study for a long time, and I couldn't figure out what the permutations and combinations of these numbers meant.
Seeing that I was still confused and full of incomprehension, Bai Yi shook his head lightly and continued.
"Before, I wasn't sure, but after knowing that No. 35 Minsheng Road was Xinhua Bookstore, I was quite sure of my judgment."
I raised my eyebrows when I heard this, and when Bai Yi saw this, he didn't wait for me to ask again, and then spoke again.
"The combination of these numbers left by the earth dog, of course, is a set of passwords, and this kind of password is not special, I have been in contact with and deciphered many similar codes, of course, if you want to decipher this kind of code, you must have a corresponding reference, the 35th Minsheng Road left by the earth dog is a reference for deciphering this code."
I was even more puzzled.
"Isn't that a bookstore? Can a bookstore be used as a reference for deciphering codes? ”
"What's the most in the bookstore?"
Bai Yi stared at me with blazing eyes, and asked in a low voice again.
"Of course it's a book!"
I replied without thinking too much.
"That's right."
Bai Yi nodded lightly in affirmation.
"The most in the bookstore is indeed books, so the reference for cracking this code is the book, and these numbers are likely to correspond to the corresponding number of pages, lines, and numbers on a specific book.
"Fuck that's what happened, why didn't I think of it?"
After listening to Bai Yi's explanation, I suddenly nodded in response.
However, after staring at the numbers on the tin foil in my hand for a long time, my brow furrowed again.
According to what Bai Yi just said, if these words correspond to a specific number of pages and rows on a certain book, then we only need to find out the book, and there is really no need to go into the Xinhua Bookstore at No. 35 Minsheng Road to find it.
It's just that in this vast sea of books, how can we know which one is the book that can decipher those numbers into words?
Moreover, as I just said, if you want to find the words corresponding to the numbers in the book, you must be satisfied with the number of pages, the number of lines, and the number of numbers in the book.
But the text on this tin foil only has two sets of numbers per line, which is not right
The confusion on my face, Bai Yi saw it very clearly.
"The earth dog left the clues in the Xinhua bookstore, and it will definitely not let us search for a needle in a haystack, and the books and classics in a bookstore must be at least tens of thousands, and it is simply impossible to find a needle from it, so the clues left by the earth dog should be easy to think of."
When Bai Yi said this, a faint clue suddenly appeared in my mind.
I blinked my eyes quickly, my head racing, trying to grasp the thoughts that had just flashed through my mind and make them clear.
"Xinhua bookstore has at least tens of thousands of people in every place in the country, if you want to mention the books in this Xinhua bookstore, what will be the first book that comes to mind?"
I wrinkled my eyebrows in thought, and after a moment, my brow furrowed, and my eyes widened.
"I can't fuck that one, right?"
I asked Bai Yi in disbelief.
Bai Yi didn't say anything, just the corners of his mouth twitched, and he pulled out a thick little book from the bookshelf and handed it to me.
This is a very common reference book.
"Xinhua Dictionary" "Xinhua Dictionary" Everyone who has gone to school knows the Tao, and I am certainly not unfamiliar with the use of "Xinhua Dictionary".
Without thinking much about it, I immediately compared the sets of numbers on the tin foil and began to flip through the "Xinhua Dictionary".
After a quick flip to confirm, I finally found the corresponding words in the dictionary for those strings of numbers.
It's just that after finding these words, the expression on my face became even more strange, as if I didn't believe in the authenticity of these words that I had made sure.
The four strings of numbers correspond to the four characters in the "Xinhua Dictionary", and these four characters are arranged in the order of the numbers on the paper.
118-10 two 80-1 big 143-2 645-11 sub "two big poles? ”
I stared at the balls of my eyes for a long time before I opened my mouth and muttered four words.
Two big poles
The most deciphered thing on the tin foil note left by the earth dog turned out to be the name of the two poles!
This playmate in my hometown when I was a child turned out to be related to the earth dog again!
What the fuck is going on?
