This is part 6 of Strange Interpretation by Jean Lúcio from Brazil.
To understand this thread, it is necessary to read my previous threads.

I will now continue the explanation of my theory about R's letter to Lemony. I believe the true sender of this letter is the real R. I would not say that believing this is essential to understanding the rest of my theory. However, I spent a lot of time thinking about it, and I feel the need to present the succinct result of my concentrated thoughts.
I believe that the real "R" purposely missed the color of the car in the staging and the position of the car. I believe she used a kind of Duress code. In the minutes of the VFD meeting partially printed in chapter 3 of the UA, there is a record of a speech of R, which is spelled out. "Someone migth, for example, forget crucial information regarding the exact location of the automobiles we use to store necessary files and convey messages." The person who underlined this passage, wrote the following at the edge of the page: "an interesting idea ..." I believe R thought this was an interesting idea to use as Duress code. After all, she knew the Snicket family would be sure that R would never forget the location and color of the car. In the letter found on page 83 of the UA, R states that he would never forget the location of the secret Jeep. Now notice what Lemony first thought of when reading the letter as described in her personal notes:
"The Jeep outside the Orion Observatory was of course not navy blue but black, and parked in the northwest corner, not the southwest." She would never forget this The real R was tested on this information every month for more than seven years. IS SHE TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING? "
In addition, in the letter's contents, there is evidence that R used secret codes based on books. All the books that are quoted in the letter are among those cited in chapter 10 of the UA: Charlotte's Web, Green Mansions, Ivan Lachrymose: Lake Explorer. In chapter 10, the excerpt from Carlotte's Web makes reference to crickets that sing: "Summer is over and gone", Over and gone, over and gone. Summer is dying, dying. "Among the books cited in chapter 10 of the AU, there is a book called "Mamba du Mau: A Snake that will never kill me." In this book, the author (Uncle Monty using an anagram as a pseudonym) explains that Mamba du Mal and garden crickets can be trained to alert people. If crickets or Mamba du Mau say, "Summer is" for instance, they are communcating a coded version of the phrase "Enemie are nerby. "
If they say the phrase "Over and gone" they actually mean "probably in disguise" and the word "dying" as a code for "Beware of arson".
So when R talked about crickets in the winter, it's likely she was sending the message to Lemony: "Enemie are nerby, probably in disguise." Beware of arson. This knowledge about codes using books is not widespread on the side of Lemony's enemies. Most of them do not like to read. That's why secret codes using books are so safe.
The other book cited by R is Ivan Lachrymose: Lake Explorer. This is a book that was written solely to keep secret documents between pages 302 and 303, also according to chapter 10 of the UA. Thus, in saying that this book was lost, R is claiming that she lost important documents in the fire of her house. All sides of Shism know the secret of this book, so I can not use it here as an argument to defend the authenticity of the letter of R. However, I am in the process of understanding the secret code hidden in Green Mansions. I have not yet reached a final conclusion, but I know that this is one of the books cited in Chapter 10 of the AU. At the moment, I think the way to decode this code is similar to the Verse Fluctuation Declaration. The difference is that the coded words are omitted. In chapter 10 of the UA, there is an excerpt with some words omitted from Green Mansions.
It is written thus:
"It is a cause of great regret to me that this task has taken so much longer to time than I had expected for its completion ... A darkened chamber, the existence of which had never been suspected in that familiar house ... the only thing that would have to do with it would be that it would have to be the same as that of the serpent. untold chapter in a man's life for imagination to work on. "
To find out what was written in the gaps, I went to the original work. There I found the following text in the first gap:
"It is now many months-over a year, in fact-since I wrote to Georgetown announcing my intention of publishing, IN A VERY FEW MONTHS, the whole truth about Mr. Abel. , and I had hoped that the discussion in the newspapers would have ceased, at all events, until the appearance of the promised book.It was not so at this distance from Guiana I was not aware of how much conjectural matter was being printed week by week in the local press, some of which must have been painful reading to Mr. Abel's friends "
I found this passage so significant! If you replaced the name Mr Abel by Mr Snicket, that whole section would make sense in the subject of the letter. But this is just a hypothesis.
Anyway, I want to finish this text, showing that there are evidences that the letter of R was actually written by R.
The information described in the letter regarding the Masked Ball is very similar to the other information we have about what happened on the Masked Ball. Lemony does not deny that he left several disguises in the hands of R. And most important, R wrote: "Your typewriter is gone, and the bright blue accordion, with I belive you told me your third favorite."
The author of the letter knew about the blue accordion, and that this was Lemony's third favorite. This is very personal information, and hardly an impostor would know that. Lemony does not say something like, "I believe this letter comes from an impostor because I did not leave any disguise at her house." He also does not say, "I believe this letter comes from an impostor because my third favorite accordion was not that blue." So, everything leads me to believe that the R letter is authentic.
Although I have not completely convinced you of this, at least you must believe the following: if by chance this letter comes from an imposter, this impostor forced R to pass specific information to him or her. This impostor knows what happened on the Masked Ball, and by writing about what happened in the Masked Ball, the impostor is not lying. Lemony at no time denies the events described in the letter. And what I need for my theory is just the proof that these events really happened.
And for you to know this, it will help you understand what I think about when that Masked Ball happened in which Lemony was captured using a bullfighter costume. I will speak about this in the next text.
