alphabet_list = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzab"
numbers = "123456789"

decrypted_string = ""

for i in encrypted_string:
if i not in alphabet_list:
i = i
decrypted_string += i
else:
first_a_loc = alphabet_list.find(i)
second_a_loc = first_a_loc + 2
decrypted_string += alphabet_list[second_a_loc]

print decrypted_string
