You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 468 Kindness Towards Orphans

Something was written on the paper, “It is easy to hide things in corners one frequently neglects.” On the other side of the paper was a string of numbers. Spurred by her curiosity and boredom, she decided to figure it out.

She eyed the bookshelves. Each book had been assigned a numeric code. Following the numbers on the paper, she searched for the corresponding book code. Next, she looked for the specified page number and word, which was coincidentally another number. She combined all these numbers, which made up the string of numbers “258614.”

What do these numbers mean? Could they be the PIN to an ATM card? What about that mysterious message on the paper? What is it trying to hide?

Her gaze swept across the room. The layout of the room was very simple— bookshelves, books, desks, and desk drawers. She opened the drawers, which were empty.

Nothing seemed to be amiss with the table lamp or tea set as well.

She looked at the bookshelves. She took out the books according to the order of the numbers—the second, the fifth, the eighth, the sixth, the first, and the fourth. Still, nothing happened.

She placed the books back on the shelf, suddenly noticing that the bookshelf at the end seemed out of place. The coding system was applied like the rest, but the books were haphazardly arranged. For example, humanities and calculator usage manuals had been grouped. And yet, a similar usage manual was grouped with the world classics.

Since she had nothing better to do, she decided to rearrange the books. She removed everything on the first shelf, and she saw a panel with the number one displayed in the center.

A light bulb went off in her head. Acting on her hunch, she removed all the books from the bookshelf. There was a nine-grid panel before her, with the numbers one through nine written on each grid. She pressed the panel following the numbers “258614.”
