Emerald can’t claim to be an expert cryptographer, but he finds decoding the book quite a quick process, taking him little over an hour.
 
It’s a simple cipher, it simply replaces a letter of the zebra alphabet with another letter, and then transposes them forward in the zebra alphabet about five places.
 
It was especially simple when he figured out Dejen’s name, and then used it to cross check other names and places on the list.
 
“Oh hey, neat.” Ruby says, when Emerald announces it’s completion to her and holds it to her face, “so does that mean we can go arresting people now?”
 
Emerald ponders this thoughtfully, and then seeing Bunsen appear from the backroom and walk up to the people speaking around the pot gets an idea.
 
Taking the book and the notes he scrawled down on a piece of parchment, he rushes over to Bunsen and shows the zebra his work.
 
“My goodness Emerald. You’ve already done this much? I must admit myself to be quite~~” Bunsen says, stopping suddenly. His eyes are staring at an entry, and he goes back and forth between Emerald’s translation and the proper ledger.
 
Hearing his sudden pause, some of his associates join him, as well as Nishan. A sudden muttering whisper breaks out among them.
 
Bunsen turns the book back to Emerald and pointing to a name that reads “Adesola” and says, “Are you sure about this one?”
 
Emerald was sure, but having Bunsen point out something makes him hesitate a little. He nods his head, and the whispering continues.
 
“Hmm… This is unfortunate…” Bunsen says, “Adesola is, well, quite a powerful politician in these parts. This will require some finesse. Thank you, Emerald. You have been a great help.”
