Complications

The secret communication system was designed to be totally innocent sounding and fitting any circumstance, but at the price of being rather complicated.


Any note dropped into his letterbox, seemingly from a neighbour, had to he cross-referenced with what the weather was meant to be the day after, the score in any games played by half a dozen sporting teams, seasons, and a dozen other factors.


But the only one they overlooked was an actual neighbour writing an actual note about his car, that would translate to immediately abort the mission.


Because honestly, who writes notes to neighbours these days?
