Chapter 171: Thinking at home

The communication with Nicole ended with the end of lunch.

After leaving the investigator girl's hut, Ronald stood on the street and straightened his coat.

The location where Nicole lives is just an ordinary residential street.

Therefore, during this time period in the afternoon, we see more women and children on the streets. Slightly older boys and adults are basically not near home at this time.

Ronald looked back subconsciously.

Nicole's house full of plants is placed in such a calm and everyday street, but there is no clue about it from the outside.

It can only be said that over a long period of time, each mysterious school has accumulated its own hidden methods.

at least......

The fence at Nicole's house is built strong and strong, and there are gray thorns entangled on it.

Ordinary thieves who pursue efficiency will not spend their time on this.

And if someone really breaks in accidentally.

Ronald thought those gorgeous plants in Nicole's garden might also have some effect.

"call--"

With a sigh of relief, Ronald turned and walked out of the street.

He learned a lot from his exchange with Nicole today.

Although substantial progress has been made, unfortunately it is far from solving all the mysteries.

Perhaps the biggest gain today is the help promised by Nicole.

As an elite investigator in Burrenwich, Nicole came to the exact same conclusion as Ronald after receiving the information from the warden.

Unless evidence is found, the Bureau of Investigation will never rush to investigate a politician.

As an agency that exercises violence, the Bureau of Investigation has very strict restrictions on the control of force.

As long as it's not a situation where the alienation of the world is urgent.

Like high-level people involved in politics, they will never conduct random investigations.

Not to mention the warden guy.

There is also the powerful dual identity of being a politician and the controller of the original code.

Walked slowly towards the apartment.

Ronald is still thinking about the information he gained today.

For the sake of safety, he did not tell Nicole immediately about his cooperation with Swift today. Instead, he planned to wait until he came back from the suburbs at the end of this week and then introduce the two of them the next time they met.

There is a four-day buffer, which is safer for either Nicole or Swift.

It was a leisurely ride back to the pension.

After entering the door, Mrs. Hudson was unusually not at home at this time.

"..."

"I went to buy groceries..."

After walking around the kitchen and taking a look, Ronald walked back upstairs with peace of mind.

After locking the doors and windows, Ronald lifted the table and took out the notepad he used to prop up the table legs, and then dug out the previous coded letter from the notepad.

Still laying it flat on the table, he stared at the note and began to think.

First of all, make sure that this note is the same as the original one, and the small corner of the page that I cut off is exactly the same.

At the same time, the password on the letter paper has been decrypted, and the content page has been completely cracked.

So, what is its significance as an invitation letter?

According to Nicole, the coded letters from her and Mr. Yakin were accidentally received at locations different from the banquet venue.

This first rules out the possibility of Mistletoe Manor as the destination of the invitation.

Holding up the note and turning around, Ronald came to the window and looked at the page in the sunshine.

Except for clean paper and neat black fonts, there is absolutely nothing superfluous.

This force's approach couldn't be to use invisible ink and write a layer of content, right?

Dip iodine solution?

Soaked?

Set it on fire?

...

Just when Ronald was thinking about how to deal with this innocent piece of paper, his door was knocked from outside.

Bang bang bang——

"Ronald, are you at home?"

What came from outside was the landlady's voice.

Ronald stuffed the coded letter into his pocket and walked over to open the door for Mrs. Hudson.

Opening the door, it was indeed the other person standing outside.

So, Ronald nodded politely and asked:

"Ms. Hudson, hello?"

Smiling at Ronald, Mrs. Hudson immediately said:

"I just bought some new vegetables and meat at the market. Is there anything you want to eat?"

"You can make what you want to eat first tonight."

Ronald was stunned and hesitated for a few seconds before answering:

"If possible, I would like to eat something light and refreshing."

"After all, I just had a big meal with my friends at noon."

Mrs. Hudson smiled and nodded:

"sure."

The landlady turned to go downstairs, but before going down the stairs, she turned back to Ronald and said:

"Mr. Ronald, let me remind you."

"Miss Patricia had a habit before. She didn't like food containing alcohol very much."

"well--?"

Hearing this reminder, Ronald was stunned.

He didn't come back to his senses until the landlady's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

After standing at the door for a few breaths, Ronald shook his head and returned to the house with a smile on his face.

I have to say that he really likes this landlady.

Although Patricia has been away for some time, Mrs. Hudson still cheers for herself in this way.

After closing the door, Ronald sat back at the desk.

It was completely understandable that Patricia didn't like alcohol.

Although they are an aristocratic family, the Niklaus family is also a famous family school on the mysterious side.

With such precise and swift swordsmanship, it is only natural that you should pay attention to such things.

Just like at the dinner party I appeared before.

Apart from the uniformly dressed investigators, Patricia was the only woman wearing boots.

Not the kind of high heels that help enhance your charm.

As expected, there is only the mysterious side of things...

"Um!"

At this moment, Ronald was about to take out the coded letter in his pocket and prepare to verify its nature according to the plan just now.

But the moment my fingertips touched the paper.

A flash of lightning flashed in his mind.

——Ronald suddenly realized the possibility in the coded letter.

The mysterious side is the nature of the mysterious side!

The other party was able to put coded letters into his, Nicole's, and Yakin's pockets with great powers.

At the same time, there are also original-level destiny interference protection methods.

——Normally speaking.

When such an organization issues an invitation letter, it must use mysterious means. How can ordinary people be qualified to catch their eyes?

But what happened was that what they sent was an ordinary piece of paper with no mysterious qualities.

Deciphering the contents of the code also relies solely on the human mind.

——Then let’s put it into the other person’s perspective.

'My mystical side ability is already extremely powerful, so the only requirement now is that the selected candidates need to have rich knowledge and excellent logical thinking!'

Most of the veteran mystical masters are devoted to the research of mystical knowledge.

But young people who grow up in this new era can have advanced concepts that are different from the occult logic of the past.

——Then the conclusion comes out.

This is an organization that is hidden in mystery but needs new people with excellent thinking skills.

In this way, the other party will never use invisible ink to hide their purpose.

Use logical thinking to think and start from the essence of password letters.

This is the real key to the solution!
