The red moon returns

Chapter 285 From Nolin
It turns out that there are wild places in this world too.

Although this sounds stupid, it is indeed what Lynch feels.

Not only after time travel, even the original owner of the body has almost never left the Rhine. The farthest place he has gone to is in the archeology internship course of intermediate education, where he followed his classmates to inspect the ancient Quaternary architectural ruins on the outskirts of the city.

It feels similar to the spring outing to the ancient royal gardens in my hometown primary school.

So this was his first time out of town.

Leaving the Rhine from the northern suburbs, there is a large stretch of rolling hills and barley fields, rolling as far as the eye can see. Continuing to the north, there is the famous Carlos Mountains. The northeast is the Best Mountain, and the northwest is the main chain of the Carlos Mountains that stretches for thousands of kilometers.

A long motorcade was driving along the winding country paths between the rolling hills of Kallos.

The rural experience was indeed very new to Lynch. If it weren't for maintaining the image of a swollen girl, he might have started jumping up and down. But now, forced by the situation, he could only look around reservedly.

Different from the heavy and solemn carriages in the city, the fleets are caravans that are convenient for traveling in the wild. The carriages are spacious and suitable for carrying people and cargo.

At least seven people from the outside group could all squeeze into one car.

The marquee has actually been removed, and the field of view is even wider. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, there are endless green fields all around. From time to time, farmers returning home late pass by in their cars on the roadside, taking off their hats to the convoy. Villages further away Smoke curled up from the kitchen stove, and the sound of cocks crowing and dogs barking came up leisurely.

In the carriage behind were more than thirty strong laborers and a large amount of supplies. They were all workers of the Nolin-Rhine Railway Project. Yes, they were all paid for by the project budget. This made Lynch rich to the mayor. A deeper understanding of the reasons.

It felt like the beginning of a journey. The energetic Carl Jones, wearing a round-brimmed hat and sturdy overalls, stood at the front of the carriage and sang a song against the sunset. Lynch thought the song was pretty good, but the tune was unfamiliar. , does not seem to have spread in the Rhine, it may be pop music from Nolin.

Dr. Jenna was not far from his side, holding her chin and watching this man's courtship-like performance, with a meaningful smile on his lips and humming intermittently in his nose. A black notebook was spread out on her lap, and she wrote a few words in it from time to time by the setting sun and the lantern.

Lynch was sitting next to Dr. Jenna. During these two days together, although he remained reserved and mysterious at all times, he got along quite harmoniously with the six of them, especially Dr. Jenna. Perhaps it was because they were both ladies and not familiar with each other. Like Judy, who is confused and crazy, Dr. Jenna is quite friendly to Lynch. From time to time, she will chat with Lynch and say some bad things about her teammates, especially the big-nosed Jack Adams. Especially since the two of them were right next to each other during the trip, chatting was even more convenient.

On the other side of Lynch, Judy huddled in the corner without saying a word, her eyes as dull as a doll. It was hard to imagine that there was another will sleeping in her heart. On a row of benches opposite, cautious Rooney and the bearded Jack Adams each held a tin jug and drank from time to time, while the liar Salin remained taciturn, huddled in the back of the car playing a deck of cards without any intention of chatting.

For a moment, the evening breeze blew in the face, the fragrance filled the nostrils, and the atmosphere was actually quite harmonious and pleasant. It didn't look like a dangerous secret mission at all, nor did it look like a group of team members with their own ulterior motives.

No, like.

Dr. Jenna beside her let out a soft sigh, then lowered her head and looked at the black notepad on her lap intently. The soft voice did not attract the attention of others in the singing, but Lin Qi heard it and glanced subconsciously.

However, Dr. Jenna's angle was very clever, which just prevented Lynch from seeing clearly the contents of the notebook. He could only vaguely feel that there seemed to be a few more lines on it, but it was impossible to see clearly unless he stretched his neck to look.

【Rick's carbon paper】

A strange thing that can communicate instantly with distant places.

Is there any news about the forces behind her?

However, Lynch immediately noticed that Dr. Jenna stared at the text with a rather confused look on her face, and then quickly wrote a few words on it seemingly unintentionally. Soon after, her eyebrows slightly knit together, she hesitated for a moment, and then took out the A piece of paper on which a string of text was copied.

"Everyone, it will take at least two hours anyway. We have nothing to do, so why not solve a puzzle."

Dr. Jenna held up the note she just copied:
"This is a set of codes that I accidentally encountered before, but I have never been able to crack it. Why don't you all help me think about it while I'm on the way."

It's so fake, if I hadn't seen the whole thing just now, I would have believed it.

Lynch was a little confused about this, but after a little analysis, it should be a message from the forces behind her, asking her to make the note public. She obviously didn't understand the other party's purpose, but she still did it.

What kind of secret code was it? The secret signal was given as soon as the team set off. This was because they were afraid that their own people would not be exposed.

If this were in a spy drama, you would definitely not be able to survive the theme song.

Who is this code meant for? I want to see which fool is so unlucky. Damn it, woman, you can't copy six copies and give one to each person. Do you have to copy only one copy to satisfy people's appetite?

However, even though he was repeatedly whipped by curiosity, Lynch could only maintain his character. He just glanced at the note beside him and watched it being taken by the lively Carl Jones.

"What is this?" Karl scratched his head through his hat, "It's impossible to crack this kind of code normally."

"Let me take a look." Rooney, the most professional ancient book broker, took the note, glanced at it and shook his head, "Yes, this thing is impossible to crack without a code book. Doctor, you won't make such a low-level mistake."

As he spoke, he continued to pass the note on.

"No, it definitely can be decrypted without a code book, but I haven't found a method yet." Dr. Jenna looked serious, not showing that she didn't know what was going on. She motioned to the men to copy it by themselves, and She copied two more copies and handed them to Lynch before he strangled her in his mind.

Let me see what this is...

???

The moment he saw the note, Lin Qi felt his scalp numb.

This set of passwords looks very familiar, and it is probably the password used to communicate secretly between Maya and Downey.

Of course, Maya couldn't be involved, but Officer Natalie knew about it when the crack was cracked, so the two of them were using this method to pass the message to me?
So the unlucky fool who couldn't survive the theme song was actually me?

No, no, no, that's not important. What's important is what happened?
Lin Qi's mind was spinning rapidly, and he gradually simulated possible scenarios.

In other words, they were working hard outside, but beyond the distance, the concentric conch could not be used, so through some channels, they established contact with the people behind Dr. Jenna, temporarily thought to be the Archaeological Association. And they think that the Archaeological Association is more reliable, so they use their channels to convey information to me in this way?
In other words, Dr. Jenna is trustworthy?
Lynch turned his eyes to the doctor, thinking about finding an opportunity to communicate with her in depth, but as soon as the idea came to him, he immediately shuddered all over.

No, she is the most unreliable.

If she is reliable, she will never use this troublesome method to deliver the message. Even if she has to use a secret code, she can just leave it to me directly. Now, it is obvious that my identity has not been revealed to Dr. Jenna, which means that no one there believes that Jenna is absolutely reliable, so I can't completely trust her.

But what is written on it? What message is Natalie trying to deliver? I didn’t bring those two books with me. Even if I knew the information was from them, I couldn’t interpret it without others discovering it.

How to do.

"It looks like a secret code." Lin Qi was thinking about it in his mind. The silent Salin finally spoke. He took the note and took a look at it, then put it aside casually, "I don't think there is a secret key comparison." , it’s meaningless to crack.”

Jack stroked his beard and looked at Judy beside Lynch thoughtfully: "Judy, you have the best memory and have a lot of secret key books in your head. Do you have any ideas?"

Judy shook her head blankly, which disappointed the others. They each took the notes and studied them. Lynch also imitated their behavior to avoid showing anything special, but he began to think in his heart.

Do you want to trust her more?
After all, I have a connection with the Blazing Lady, and she knows my true identity, so she may be able to make further contact.

After hesitating for a moment, Lynch made up his mind, bumped Judy lightly with his arm, and whispered in the smallest voice: "I want to see her."

The lady behind him didn't respond at all, she just squeezed towards him again, with half of her body pressed against his back, and even her hands pressed up. The next moment, a fire flashed in front of Lynch's eyes, and he appeared in the flame-filled space again.

A contact hidden in the cracks of time, a contact that will not be seen by outsiders.

The real Judy's voice rang out over the flames: "I can't last long, say it as soon as possible, is this your message?"

"Yes." Lynch gritted his teeth and decided to place his bet, no longer hiding it, "Can you help me decipher the geography of the Rhine City and the history of Rand in the Fifth Age?"

"Which edition?"

"Huh?" Lin Qi was confused, and I didn't know either.

"Forget it, I'll try every version. Anyway, there are only six versions in total, so it won't take too much effort."

The understatement of the answer made Lynch's eyes almost pop out. Girl, you were born in Versailles.

However, Judy was obviously not bragging, as the flames jumped and rolled, and then Judy's voice sounded again.

"Be careful."

"Some of them, at least one, are from..."

"Nolin, William."

This sentence made Lynch feel cold. He realized that he had guessed correctly. What he wanted to do was to find the mole, not to find out who had ulterior motives, but to find out who was really on William's side besides Salin. He must dominate the entire ceremony and is the biggest enemy of this trip.

The spirit suddenly retreated from the body, and everything was normal for the other five people outside.

Who is it?
