Chapter 352 Code Words
Fang Duobing took out the chess manual set up by Xing Ziru that the guard had given him earlier, and compared it with E Yue's Collection of Forget-Worries and Pure Joy. He quickly found the chess manual set up by Xing Ziru in the Collection of Forget-Worries and Pure Joy.
"The Four Fairies of Chengdu, just as I suspected." Li Lianhua compared the two paintings and quickly discovered the differences.
What do you mean?
"Look, the annotations on the right page of each chessboard diagram in this collection are exactly nineteen rows and nineteen columns, which are exactly the same as the horizontal and vertical lines on the chessboard."
Wu You and Zhan Yunfei also went over to take a closer look. Such a small difference—if Li Lianhua hadn't pointed it out, who would have noticed it?
"You mean, the position of each character corresponds to an intersection on the chessboard?"
Li Lianhua nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, each move on the chessboard represents a corresponding character."
At this moment, Li Lianhua has a lot of Detective Conan vibes. Wu You applauded Li Lianhua in his heart, but Hua Hua is still the most handsome.
"The Four Fairies of Chengdu that Xing Ziru set up does indeed have two more moves than the normal chess manual." Zhan Yunfei picked it up to check, and it was indeed different.
Fang Duobing flipped to the other three games for comparison and found that he had indeed scored more in each game.
"The same applies to the other three games; basically, there are two or three more moves in each game."
"So, the words corresponding to these moves are the messages Xing Ziru wants to send out. Fang Duobing, take a look at what words these two moves correspond to?"
Wu You put the chess score back on the table. This thing is completely incomprehensible to those who don't understand it.
Fang Duobing immediately took the "Collection of Forget-Worries and Pure Joy" and began translating it.
“Xing Ziru’s Shangqing Diagram has an extra white piece in the seventh row and third column, which corresponds to the character ‘新’ (new) above. There is also an extra black piece, which corresponds to ‘郎’ (bride), meaning groom.”
Unexpectedly, the clues were indeed hidden here. Fang Duobing quickly deciphered the hidden codes in the other chess scores.
"The groom, Tianbing, and Miku Youyi, are plotting something else."
"It seems this is indeed the intelligence that Xing Ziru and E Yue were secretly exchanging."
"Another secret vault, that must be the one my mother showed me. As for the groom, could it be that the lost Rama Heavenly Soldier is in Wei Qingchou's hands?"
"I thought E'yue was hiding in the bridal chamber because she knew Wei Qingchou had information about Tianbing. I didn't expect that she knew Wei Qingchou knew Tianbing's whereabouts."
"Now that Xing Ziru has disappeared, could it be that he knows Wei Qingchou's whereabouts?"
"That's possible. When he heard about the incident at the villa, he probably already guessed that E'yue had met with an accident."
"If we can find out how Wei Qingchou left the bridal chamber, we can follow the clues to find out where he went."
Having exhausted all leads, the group then traveled to the new house to investigate how Wei Qingchou had managed to slip away right under Zhan Yunfei's nose.
Li Lianhua wandered around the room for a while, then called over the maids who had been the first to enter the bridal chamber that day and asked them questions.
"Miss Li'er, it's always been you few who serve outside, so who discovered the trouble inside today?"
“We came in together.” Li’er and the other maids exchanged glances. “This morning, according to the custom, the eight of us maids, who are the wedding attendants, are to bring the wedding basins to help the bride and groom with their grooming.”
"The hall master said we didn't need to come too early, so the rest of us came together after 9 am."
