2007 Peru MO (ONEM), 3

We say that a natural number of at least two digits $E$ is [i]special [/i] if each time two adjacent digits of $E$ are added, a divisor of $E$ is obtained. For example, $2124$ is special, since the numbers $2 + 1$, $1 + 2$ and $2 + 4$ are all divisors of $2124$. Find the largest value of $n$ for which there exist $n$ consecutive natural numbers such that they are all special.
