Chapter 22 [Thinking]
"There is something in the box, and the riddle is the answer."
This unclear sentence is all the clues in the letter.
It is simple to understand literally: what Lan Silin said is "next letter" is placed in a box. As long as you find that box and get that "thing", the puzzle will be solved.
But if you think about it carefully, there are still many suspicious places.
The first question is: What does "stuff" mean?
Although Lan Silin has already stated that she is looking for the "next letter", there is a high probability that this so-called "letter" is not a letter wrapped in paper in the traditional sense, because the first "letter" Lan Silin gave him through Fang Chang was not of this type.
It was just a casually torn off, the last page of a fairy tale book.
Thinking of this, Li Weiyin's eyes lit up.
"The riddle is the answer". This sentence is ambiguous and cannot determine its true meaning, but when applied to the current situation, it seems to be able to explain some situations.
The puzzle can refer to the sentence "thing is in the box" or the "first letter", which is the paper itself.
Li Weiyin didn't believe that Lan Silin teared off the last page of "The Tin Man" and left it to herself because she did it casually because she didn't have draft paper on her hand.
Because he asked the girl to bring this book to her. And he clearly saw that before Lan Silin could touch the book, the girl handed it over to the instructor next to her.
This means two possibilities.
One way is that Lan Silin was prepared for a long time and tore off the last page of the book before entering Kanglong Academy and carried it with her so that she could hand it to herself as the "first letter" at the right time.
As for the second type... Lan Silin took back the book through unknown means and tore off this page.
After careful thinking, Li Weiyin quickly ruled out the first possibility. Because every student would be imprisoned for seven days before entering Kanglong Academy, Lan Silin was not surprised.
Before being locked in the confinement room, every student will undergo an extremely inhuman body search. The girl is even forced to take off her bra in order to prevent the students from bringing any personal belongings into the boring room.
Kanglong Academy is afraid of placing responsibility. If the student has any personal belongings on his body, he may use it as a self-killer.
In other words, it is impossible for students to own any personal belongings when they come out of the boredom room.
After eliminating this possibility, the answer is already very obvious.
Lan Silin did succeed in getting the book back, and no one knew about his method.
Li Weiyin's thinking fell into a dead end again.
The canteen bell rang and lunch time was over. He suddenly came to his senses, covered the lunch box lid, got up and left, and joined the broken abortion of people leaving the canteen.
He felt inexplicably irritated.
I actually thought about so many things about that puzzle inadvertently.
He didn't care about this at all. He didn't care about his life in the academy or his future. At best, his investigation of Lan Silin could only be considered a kind of self-protection curiosity.
But Lan Silin seemed to have insight into this.
He used his curiosity about him to set up this puzzle. He almost got involved in it and thought carefully about the answers to the puzzle, but ignored why he thought about the puzzle.
Why should he solve Lan Silin's puzzle?
He doesn't need anyone to save him.
He could leave Kanglong by himself. But he had nowhere to go...or rather, it was the same wherever he went - that's all.
The way Lan Silin sets up a puzzle is like treating him as a random toy, just like a child covering an ant with a glass upside down, observing its escape with interest...
This made Li Weiyin feel disgusted.
He put the lunch box under his armpit, took out the wrinkled piece of paper, spread it out and pinched the corners, intending to tear it to pieces.
After tearing a little, his movements paused again, and he kneaded it into a ball in a depressed manner and stuffed it back into his pocket.
The activities of the class breaking the zero in the afternoon were still boring, and it was nothing more than mechanical physical training, which made the students exhausted half-death. Especially after Lan Silin left, many instructors seemed to have been freed from the constraints, and they were even more severe when they were trained. The pain and crying on the playground were endless.
Li Weiyin was punished to run fifty laps, or 20 kilometers. He ran on the playground without saying a word. In order to transfer the pain of his lungs that was almost indulgent to breathe, his brain began to mechanically adjust his body functions, and he thought about it by the way:
Your own stride, the speed of travel per second, how much does it take to complete a lap, and then multiply it by fifty...
Three exhale and one inhaler, three exhale and one inhaler...
The girl on the other end fell down and walked towards her instructor whose surname was Liu. The instructor liked to drag the girl's hair away. Li Weiyin remembered that he had mild pedophiles.
There are instructors smoking in the distance. Kanglong Academy is not allowed to smoke, even if it is an instructor. But only colleagues and students are smoking, and the students dare not report him.
What was Lan Silin's method to get back the book "Tin Man"?
With his understanding of Kanglong Academy - Li Weiyin's knowledge of the academy is much more important than any student, because he is an Asperger's disease and has a strong desire to control information - no one knows where the confiscated personal belongings are stored and who will keep them.
If Lan Silin wants to find that book, then he must first find the place where the book is stored.
It might be a security room, a storage room, an office, or even a principal's office.
Place things in boxes - judging by the rigorousness of the care of Kanglong Academy, the so-called "box" must be locked.
Because most of the students' personal belongings include mobile phones. If the box storing private belongings is not locked, once the student stolen the phone, he can inform his family.
The first step is to find the box; the second step is to find the person who is in charge of the box. The person must have the key. The third step is to find a way to steal the key and open the box...
Lee Weiyin frowned and overturned his guess.
Starting from the third step, a problem occurred.
He put himself in Lan Silin's situation. As a student of Kanglong Academy, he could not easily steal the keys of the box. He took a step back and said that even if he stole it, he would not be able to enter the place where confiscated items were stored.
Since it wasn't a steal, how did he do it?
No, Lan Silin stole the book. This is a certain fact. He must use this to retort to find the clues that he has ignored...
There was a scream in front of me, and another unconscious classmate was awakened by a bucket in the stands.
Li Weiyin suddenly came to his senses and panted.
——I actually started to think about the puzzle that Lan Silin left for me again without realizing it.
He was even unconscious of it as if he was crazy.
Li Weiyin continued to run, but his bipolar mood in his heart was like a tide. He hated the feeling that he seemed to be playing with in his palms.
"Find the next letter and find your heart."
These two sentences are in an imperative tone.
Li Weiyin sneered from the bottom of his heart.
If you are really playing around with his puzzles, it would be better to tear off the note right now.
