Chapter 226 Interpretation (Part 1)
After reading the document Liu Lu sent, Wei Hongsi said to her, "Well done. Let me review the contents of the book again, and we can discuss it tonight."
Liu Lu said, "I feel that there seems to be some other information hidden in this book. I want to read it again carefully, and maybe I can discover something."
"There's hidden information?" Wei Hongsi asked, somewhat surprised. "Could you describe what it is?"
As a frequent reader, he considered himself to have a relatively strong ability to understand words. He had read "The Story of Time" quite carefully at the time, and after Han Tao's death, he read it again. Apart from the prophetic description of the car accident, he did not see anything else unusual.
Liu Lu was able to count the manner and number of deaths described in the book because of a different reading strategy. When reading a novel normally, no one would intentionally try to remember these details, just as no one would count how many characters appear or how many meals the protagonist ate.
But Liu Lu's ability to detect hidden information in the book was unbelievable to Wei Hongsi, since she had only read it once. Could it be that the two of them were reading different books?
Liu Lu said, "The author seems to have used encrypted text in some paragraphs."
Wei Hongsi was stunned.
This was something he hadn't expected at all; it touched on a blind spot in his knowledge. He probably wouldn't have noticed this kind of problem even after reading it a hundred times. Liu Lu clearly possessed professional knowledge in this area, which is why she was able to detect the anomaly during speed reading. It was definitely the right person to give her this book.
Seeing that Wei Hongsi did not respond, Liu Lu got up and walked over to ask, "Mr. Wei, are you familiar with the author of this book?"
Wei Hongsi said, "I have some understanding of it."
Liu Lu then asked, "Do you think he has that ability?"
Wei Hongsi pondered for a moment and then said, "I think that's possible."
Based on current clues, it is very likely that "The Story of Time" was written by Zhang Shuqiu's mother through her.
Although Wei Hongsi was unsure whether Zhang Shuqiu's mother possessed this ability, he believed she certainly could, and even Zhang Shuqiu herself might possess it.
Taking the members of the Light Guide Society as a reference, Mu Jie, Zhou Huai, and Chen Xuemin possess strong counter-surveillance awareness and abilities. They have not received any special training in this area; their abilities all come from memory transfer.
The organization that Uncle Zhang belongs to also has the same methods; they can certainly instill knowledge about encrypted text information in their members.
Liu Lu asked, "Can I try this direction?"
Wei Hongsi nodded and said, "Of course! Actually, you're quite confident, right?"
Liu Lu smiled and nodded: "Although my judgment comes from intuition, most of the time, my intuition is quite accurate."
Wei Hongsi said with a smile: "So-called intuition is the ability to obtain answers or judgments directly without obvious logical reasoning. It is essentially experience trained to the extreme."
As the two were talking, a knock came at the door, and Liu Lu quickly returned to her seat.
Wei Hongsi looked through the transparent glass under the door and recognized Lu Jiaqi outside. He said, "Please come in!"
Lu Jiaqi pushed open the door and entered, first smiling and nodding at Liu Lu, who was sitting by the door. Liu Lu smiled back. Earlier, Li Xuan had taken Liu Lu out, allowing her to meet most of the people in the CDD project team.
Lu Jiaqi walked up to Wei Hongsi and said, "Mr. Wei, your clothes have arrived. Would you like to try them on?"
Wei Hongsi said, "No need. I'll just take it back to my dorm. We can talk about it tomorrow if there are any problems."
Lu Jiaqi nodded and said, "Okay." She paused for a moment, then asked with a smile, "You think changing clothes is too much trouble, right?"
Wei Hongsi said, "Yes, I'm especially not used to changing clothes outside. Before, when I bought clothes, I basically wouldn't try them on; I'd just measure them and see if they fit."
Lu Jiaqi smiled and didn't say anything more.
Wei Hongsi usually wears loose-fitting casual clothes, and since his physique is quite standard, slightly inferior clothing doesn't really matter. However, when choosing formal attire, he can't be so careless.
There was another knock at the door. Wei Hongsi turned around and saw Xia Shiyu. He glanced at the time; it was already past six. He said, "Let's go to the restaurant for dinner. It'll be a good opportunity for Liu Lu to get acquainted with the place."
Upon hearing this, Liu Lu locked the computer screen, picked up the backpack on the table, and put it on her back.
After leaving the office, Lu Jiaqi called Li Xuan and they went downstairs to the company cafeteria for lunch.
Wei Hongsi and Lu Jiaqi chatted about work-related matters, while Li Xuan and Xia Shiyu introduced Liu Lu to some basic information about their project department.
Liu Lu acted like a newcomer to the company, asking all the questions that new employees should ask, and she always got to the point.
In fact, Xia Shiyu and Liu Lu had met before, but like Wei Hongsi, they couldn't remember each other in the dimly lit alley, making it difficult for Xia Shiyu to connect Liu Lu with the girl with the gun that night.
The group arrived at the restaurant, got their food, and sat down to eat together.
Wei Hongsi took a few bites, then stopped eating and listened for a while when he heard the music playing in the restaurant was Shen Qing's new song "The Brave".
Upon seeing this, Lu Jiaqi said, "It's Shen Qing's new song. I saw you recommended it on your WeChat Moments. You must have already heard it, right?"
Wei Hongsi nodded and said, "I've listened to it several times."
Lu Jiaqi couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Is this how you support your friend?"
Wei Hongsi said, "Not entirely. This song is very good and deserves to be recommended. What do you think?"
Lu Jiaqi said, "It does sound good on close listening. However, this song has just been released, and its reputation isn't very good yet. It will take time for fans to accept it."
Wei Hongsi said, "Some people haven't understood yet, and some are just making trouble."
Li Xuan chimed in, "Yeah, that's right, a lot of people are just making things up."
Lu Jiaqi smiled and nodded.
She remembered that on the way to the GG film set at the amusement park, Shen Qing's songs were playing, and Wei Hongsi had fallen asleep listening to them. Now that the two of them had spent more time together, Wei Hongsi's feelings about music had changed, or perhaps he was just interested in Shen Qing's songs.
The restaurant will play Shen Qing's new song, which may also be related to Wei Hongsi. After all, General Manager Wu from the Comprehensive Support Center can see it on his WeChat Moments, and it's possible that he might forward it.
After finishing their meal, the group returned to the main building.
Xia Shiyu was a little surprised to see Liu Lu also come back to work overtime. He said to her, "I saw you carrying a bag and thought you were going home after dinner."
Liu Lu said with a smile, "I'm used to carrying a bag wherever I go. There are some things in it that I might need at any time."
Li Xuan said to Xia Shiyu, "Don't be too curious about the bags girls carry."
Xia Shiyu smiled awkwardly and patted her mouth twice.
Lu Jiaqi asked, "Has Xia never had a girlfriend before?"
Xia Shiyu said, "There wasn't enough time."
Wei Hongsi guessed that Liu Lu's backpack contained something special. However, it wasn't particularly strange for a girl to carry a small bag.
