The letters he marked were: ni, bs, ag, fo, etc. When he marked them out, everyone opened their mouths, because some pairs of letters did appear several times.
However, that seems to be it, and no one can figure out what is going on.
Everyone looked at Mr. Herbert, waiting for his further explanation.
Mr. Herbert smiled and suddenly said: "Has anyone counted these letters? Are they odd or even? Mr. Xiao, have you counted them?"
Xiao Ancheng smiled bitterly and said: "I did count it. I copied it faster. Seeing that others hadn't finished copying, I counted it first and it was an even number. However, I really don't see the meaning of this."
Mr. Herbert said loudly: "Mr. Xiao, this is of great significance! The second question I ask is, are the pairs of letters you marked before or after them an odd number or an even number?"
Xiao Ancheng was surprised, he didn't expect this problem!
But he had keen eyesight and quickly counted the letters before the first pair of letters he marked, and said: "Sir, they are all even numbers. Sir, I can also see that there are even numbers between the two sets of letters I marked.
The letters are also even numbers."
Mr. Herbert clapped his hands vigorously, "Good! Very good! Very good! If you can see these two points, it is a success!"

Military Commission, Department of the Executive Director of Military Justice.
Along with Gong Binsheng and Chen Zifeng, there were also Qiao Yanfang, Leng Yue and Han Jindong who went to the Executive Directorate of Military Justice.
Chen Zifeng feels that no matter what the situation is, it is best to let them all hear it, which may be more effective! These people are thieves! If you want to gain anything, you must let the thieves hear the most complete situation! Report it later.
, there may be omissions!
When he arrived at the Military Commission, Chen Zifeng suddenly thought that the general manager's headquarters was on the fourth floor and Commander Zhai's manufacturing department was on the third floor. Why not pay a visit to Commander Zhai first.
He said to Gong Binsheng: "Sir, I want to see Chief Zhai first."
Gong Binsheng looked back at him and asked, "Why?"
Chen Zifeng said with a smile: "This is just a favor. It's good to be a favor. I don't mean anything else."
Gong Binsheng nodded to him, "Okay, I'll go up first. You can come up as soon as possible."

When Chen Zifeng knocked on Chief Zhai's door and saw Chief Zhai's extremely alert eyes, he suddenly realized that there might be something going on! And it was something he didn't expect!
Zhai Zhenchuan let them into the office, and when he closed the door, he glanced outside.
Chen Zifeng lowered his voice subconsciously, "Sir, what's going on here...?"
Zhai Zhenchuan pulled him to the window. It seemed that this was the safest place.
His action made Qiao Yanfang and others alert.
Zhai Zhenchuan also lowered his voice and said: "Captain Chen, it's not that I have a problem! It's that you may have a problem!"
Chen Zifeng's eyes were wandering around, looking back and forth on his face, "Sir, if you have anything to say, please just say it!"
"I guess you are here to investigate Chu Dongping's case! Isn't that right?"
"Exactly! What's wrong!"
"Chu Dongping was a love murder case! He killed Zhao Shifu's only daughter!"
"Exactly!"
"Do you know who Chu Dongping is?"
"Director of the Secretariat of the Military Commission, with the rank of colonel!"
"You know who is behind him!"
"who is it!"
"Zhang Qun! The Secretary-General of the Secretariat Office of the Military Commission. Chu Dongping is the Director of the First Division of the Secretariat Office! Do you understand?"
"Sir, you mean that this case may involve Secretary-General Zhang!"
"It doesn't involve him! Whether Chu Dongping falls in love or kills his lover, what does it have to do with Secretary-General Zhang!"
"Yes, you are right, it shouldn't matter!"
"But someone just wants to implicate Chu Dongping's case on Secretary-General Zhang!"
"Sir, you mean that someone is taking advantage of this case!"
"Yes! Captain Chen, think about it again. The clear target is aimed at Secretary-General Zhang! Who is the secret target pointed at?"
Chen Zifeng was not very clear about the situation in the officialdom. But Chief Zhai said so, there must be something wrong with it! He subconsciously turned his eyes to Leng Yue and stared at her.
Leng Yue stared at Chen Zifeng, but said quietly: "Sir Zhai, I understand what you mean, that is, someone is secretly targeting the Chairman!"
Zhai Zhenchuan pointed to her in affirmation. He turned back and patted Chen Zifeng on the shoulder, "Brother, I can't tell you more about the situation! But you must be careful not to be taken advantage of!"
Only then did Chen Zifeng realize that a seemingly simple murder case might have a larger political purpose behind it! Only then did he understand why Chief Gong handed this case over to him!
At this time, his eyes were wide open and he didn't know what to say!

Hongya Cave, inside the church.
A weird smile appeared on Mr. Herbert's face, staring at Xiao Ancheng, "Mr. Xiao, say it, even if you don't know what to say, say it! Say your intuition! Sometimes, intuition may be more accurate!"
Xiao Ancheng looked at him dumbfounded, then looked back at the classmates in the training class.
The classmates also looked at him with wide eyes, as if expecting him to say some warning words.
Someone shouted to him: "Old Xiao, just say it! Say it intuitively!"
Xiao Ancheng looked at the letters on the white paper again and said without confidence: "Sir, could the letters I marked be the Japanese encryption method?"
Mr. Herbert said: "It must be some kind of encryption! Tell me your next idea!"
Xiao Ancheng said reluctantly: "Could it be that these two letters cover up a...a...Japanese pseudonym?"
Mr. Herbert shouted: "Okay! You are absolutely right! Please go back to your seat."
Xiao Ancheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled reluctantly at Liu Li next to him, and then returned to his seat and sat down.

Military Commission, Department of the Executive Director of Military Justice.
This is a small conference room in the Executive Directorate of Military Justice. It is quite neat and clean. There is tea on the table.
Four senior military officers were sitting at the table. They were Gu Zhenglun, deputy director of the Military Law Enforcement Directorate of the Central Military Commission, Liu Xueqi, leader of the Sixth Regiment of the Central Military Police, and Tang Yi, director of the Chongqing Police Department.
And the one who just came in is Gong Binsheng, director of the Investigation Division of Chongqing Garrison Headquarters.
He sat down at the table and said, "Chen Zifeng stopped by to visit a senior officer. They will be there in a moment, please wait a moment."
At this time, Director Tang of the police station said: "Brother Bin Sheng, I have encountered a problem recently. Can your investigation office help us solve it together?"
Gong Binsheng said: "Brother Tang, what kind of case is it?"
Director Tang said: "Damn, it's strange. Recently, a thief appeared in Chongqing. He committed crimes continuously, robbed several houses, and made a lot of money! Moreover, the technique was clever, and he only stole cash. It was really like picking something out of a bag! He was sure
He’s a habitual thief! But damn, the people below me have been scouting for a long time, but they couldn’t catch this guy! Brother Hamao, can you help me?”
Gong Binsheng did not take this kind of theft case to heart and said: "There are only a few famous theft gangs in Chongqing, the Hugua in Qixinggang, the Dragon Crossing the River in Xiaoshizi, and the King of Rags in Shangqing Temple. If you check them one by one, you can still find them."
Is it possible that we can’t find out?”
Director Tang smiled and said: "Director Gong, there is another gang you didn't mention."
Gong Binsheng smiled and said: "I know, there is another one, Ge Er from Xiapian Street, right? However, Ge Er has been busy at the dock recently. I heard that they start working before dawn and stay busy until midnight.
Yeah! There is a lot of money to be made on the dock, will they delay their serious business just for a small amount of money?"
Director Tang said: "What you said is true. However, the habitual thief I mentioned has stolen from five houses in a row in the past ten days, and the stolen money amounted to more than 8,000 yuan! This amount is not small!"
Gong Binsheng was shocked! More than 8,000 yuan is not a small amount! This is more than ten times more than earning in a month on the dock! This situation is a bit serious!
He was about to ask again when he saw a captain push open the door of the conference room and let Chen Zifeng and several other officers in. The captain directed them to sit down at the table and then left.
Chen Zifeng and others were sitting at the table with their shoulders straight, looking at the senior officers.
Several officers also looked at them and did not speak for a while.

Hongya Cave, inside the church.
Herbert smiled and looked at everyone. He didn't say anything for a while, and the classroom was very quiet.
He said gently: "Mr. Xiao is very smart. In fact, you are all very smart! What Xiao Ancheng said is exactly the situation you discussed. I saw the classmate pushing him, which means that classmate also recognized his statement."
He continued: "What Mr. Xiao just said can give us at least two insights. First, we can think about it. There are only twenty-six English letters, but there are seventy-one Japanese kana. It is impossible to use one
English letters replace a pseudonym. So, according to Mr. Xiao’s guess, will two English letters replace a pseudonym? Is this guess true? Let’s all take a guess.”
The students all looked at him dumbfounded.
Only then did they understand why Mr. Herbert kept asking if these letters were even numbers. The meaning of even numbers turned out to be here!
Mr. Herbert stretched out his second finger, "Second inspiration, Mr. Xiao just highlighted some letter pairs that will appear repeatedly. Among them, ag and fo, one is repeated three times and the other is repeated four times. Why?
What I want to ask you is, what text should be repeated three or four times in this not-so-long telegram?"
The church was very quiet, everyone was thinking seriously about this problem.
Mr. Herbert pointed to Xiao Ancheng and said, "Mr. Xiao, please answer this question, please."
Xiao Ancheng stood up, but didn't know how to answer.
Mr. Herbert looked at him quietly, waiting for him without any urgency.
Liu Li next to her had a smile on her face and was watching him, as if she knew what he would say!
