1597 She Might Have to Return to Rao City
“But what if—”
The man with the gruff voice interrupted, “Stop bleeping and carry out your mission. The plane is one minute and twenty seconds from crashing. Get ready. We’re going to jump.”
“Yeah.”
Qiao Nian heard the sound of static again. After that, she didn’t hear anything else.
She was propping up her chin, ready to pull out the black box and listen to it again.
Just then, at the last minute.
She heard a clear stream of Morse code.
Qiao Nian paused and narrowed her eyes. She immediately found a pen and paper to write down what she had heard.
The water-based pen wrote a series of letter codes on white paper.
The black box finished broadcasting the last second of seeds.
Qiao Nian had just finished writing down the last letter. Then, she picked up the paper.
The letters of the Morse cipher required a specific decryption equation.
Unfortunately, she was good at playing with these numerical equations.
Especially about the arrangement of numbers, letters.
Qiao Nian knew it by heart.
She didn’t need to go online to find out what the Morse code represented. She finished reading it and had already translated it.
—”I put the stuff in the library in Rao City’s Luohe County, cabinet 2203, password 0806.”
She was almost certain that her mother had left the code behind after Qiao Nian read the string of Morse codes.
The two people from before were quite stupid. From their voices, it was obvious that they were not very intelligent.
They would never know such a difficult Morse code, let alone think of a way to leave a message in Morse code.
Luohe County Library, Cabinet 2203?
Qiao Nian pondered for a moment before turning off the playback device. Then, she took out the black box and placed it back into her shoulder bag.
Then, she picked up her phone and scrolled through the recording she’d made, saving it.
Next, Qiao Nian threw the paper she had used to record the Morse code into the trash can. Then, she zipped up her shoulder bag, picked up her phone, and left the storage room.
Outside.
The old butler had already made tea. He brought it out and placed it on the coffee table in the living room.
Seeing her come out, Bo Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked gently, “How is Miss Qiao? Is that equipment working?”
Qiao Nian walked over, her voice clear and hoarse. “It works.”
“It’s good that it can be used.” Bo Zheng’s eyes relaxed and waved at her. He invited her gently, “Your tea is ready. Stay for lunch. Is there anything you want to eat? I’ll get the butler to buy it.”
When he said that, the old butler of the Bo family raised his head and revealed that painful and complicated expression again. He was speechless.
It was a good thing that the Young Master could find someone he liked, but… this age was really a little… he still felt that it was not appropriate.
But he dared not say so.
Qiao Nian noticed the butler’s complicated and conflicted reaction. With one hand in her pocket, she declined politely. “No, my friend is still waiting for me outside.”
She paused, looked up again, and said politely, “Captain Bo, let me treat you to a meal sometime.”
“Your friend?” Bo Zheng was stunned. He reacted and smiled. “I think it’s your boyfriend? Is Young Master Ye outside?”
Qiao Nian didn’t say anything. Frustrated, she tugged at her cap and coughed. “Ah. Um.”
Bo Zheng had already seen through her. Seeing that she admitted it readily and didn’t beat around the bush with him, he smiled and let her go. “Alright, you go ahead. However, we’ve agreed that this will be even. You helped me investigate Eagle Eye last time. I haven’t thanked you for what happened in Shuangjiang City. Luo Ming and I will treat you to a meal when you have time another day.”
