Chapter 31 Lock picking is a technical job
"What's the problem? It's a good thing that can contribute, but others don't even have a chance to do it."
Wang Xiaohu got on the military vehicle with a smile. Because it was early, not many people saw him. Of course, Yan Bugui in the front yard was an exception. He got up early and saw this situation, which made him more certain that he did not stand on the wrong side yesterday. In the future, he would have more say in the courtyard. If he could become powerful, who would want to be his grandson?
The place we were heading to was not far away, and we only got there in half an hour. It took us fifteen minutes to check before we could come in.
"Comrade Wang Xiaohu, don't mind it. This is how it is in these places. You have to understand." Luo Chengwu explained because he was afraid that Wang Xiaohu would misunderstand.
"I know, this is normal." Wang Xiaohu looked around and saw that this was a research institute and the security was very strict.
……
After walking for ten minutes, the two came to a very remote house. There were many people inside. Some were knocking on the boxes gently, some were listening to the boxes, and one was picking the lock.
As soon as Wang Xiaohu heard it, he knew that the lock was broken and he would never be able to open it no matter how hard he tried.
The box is not small, it looks to be about 1 cubic meter in size, it is hard to imagine what is inside.
"Is there a bomb inside?" Wang Xiaohu asked softly.
"I don't know, probably not." Luo Chengwu replied threateningly.
"That means there is none. Even if there is, they can't get in here." Wang Xiaohu analyzed, "But there must be a small destructive device."
"Smart, it is said that the inner shell of the box is filled with gas and gasoline, and violent opening is enough to destroy the things inside. But don't worry, it is estimated that it will not cause harm to people." Luo Chengwu was very serious this time, it seemed that this time it was real.
"This must be Comrade Wang Xiaohu, come and take a look at this box. I heard from Chengwu that you are very capable and can unlock it in a flash." An old man walked out and said.
"This is Mr. Liu," Luo Chengwu introduced.
"Hello, Mr. Liu. I'm sorry to embarrass you with my little skills." Wang Xiaohu said awkwardly. This lock-picking technique sounded like a thief's skill, which was not very bright.
“Every profession has its specializations. As long as you use it in the right way, any skill can shine.”
……
After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Xiaohu squatted down and studied the lock of the box. In fact, he already knew how to open it when he came in, but he had to put on a good show. If so many people couldn't open the box, and you opened it in a few seconds, wouldn't that ruin their jobs?
Ten minutes later, Wang Xiaohu frowned and said, "This lock is very complicated. The most important thing is that the buckle inside has been damaged. It seems that they are just trying to play a trick on us."
If Wang Xiaohu hadn't signed in to learn the lock-picking technique, the box would not have been opened with current technology.
"Then can you open it?" Old Liu asked nervously. He knew all of this and was furious when he found out about the situation, but there was nothing he could do. He wanted to open it and take a look because the expert left a note in the box when he left, saying that there was something they wanted inside.
"Sure, get me a piece of magnet." Wang Xiaohu nodded. It would be enough to waste another half an hour. It wouldn't work if it took too long.
"I'll get it!" Luo Chengwu turned around and trotted out. It seemed that he was a man with a background and was very familiar with this place.
Ten minutes later, when the magnet was brought over, Wang Xiaohu began to pretend to unlock the door.
Click~ The buckle inside the box was put back, and Wang Xiaohu took a wire and passed it through the hole, saying as he operated:
"Mr. Liu, Brother Luo, this box will take at least half an hour, or even an hour. Why don't you go and do your own work?"
Wang Xiaohu used wire to poke around in the box, and found it was empty. There might not be the so-called information, but it didn't matter because he had it.
"Okay, then I'll go and get some work done and come back in a quarter of an hour." Mr. Liu said. He was really busy.
"Then I'll stay here with you." Luo Chengwu said after thinking for a while.
Time passed minute by minute, and the room was very quiet. Everyone else had been sent out. The only sounds were Wang Xiaohu unlocking the door and Luo Chengwu standing at attention.
"Brother Luo, do you want to go to the bathroom?"
"How do you know?" Luo Chengwu was so scared that he raised his leg and stood on one foot.
"I guessed. I saw your calves were shaking. You go first. I'll be here for a while."
"Then... I'll be gone for a minute." Luo Chengwu thought about it and realized that there were people around, so he thought there shouldn't be any safety hazards.
Five seconds after Luo Chengwu walked out, Wang Xiaohu opened the box. It was not completely open, just enough for him to put his fingers in. With a thought, about 130 pieces of information in the space warehouse appeared on his fingers and then fell into the box.
Wang Xiaohu hesitated for a while, and Luo Chengwu came back. Seeing that the box had been opened, he was overjoyed.
"I'll go inform Mr. Liu!"
"Wait, it's not fully opened yet. There are two locks on both sides. Come over here and help lift the lid." Wang Xiaohu deliberately asked Luo Chengwu for help. Sure enough, when he lifted it, he found that it could only be opened about two centimeters.
After another quarter of an hour of operation, the box was finally opened. Wang Xiaohu turned around immediately and said, "I won't look at it. These things must be confidential."
Luo Chengwu saw a lot of confusing information in front of him, and he immediately smiled and said, "Fortunately, you turned quickly, otherwise you would have to live there for the next few years."
After a while, Mr. Liu came over with two experts wearing glasses to check it out.
The two experts spent an hour just reading one document, and finally said: "There is no problem at the moment. It is exactly the technical information we need. If everything is correct, we can produce the missile two years earlier."
"Really?" Mr. Liu asked excitedly.
"Really? But we only verified these three lines of information. We took a quick look at the rest and found no major problems. It seems that the experts from the Mao Bear think that we definitely can't afford to open this box!"
"That's great. Our work has not been in vain this time. The credit must go to Comrade Wang Xiaohu. I will report it to you immediately to commend him!" Old Liu came to Wang Xiaohu, who was squatting in the corner, and kept patting him on the shoulder.
"These are all things I should do." Wang Xiaohu said while rubbing his hands. Instead of verbal praise, can you please give me some practical advice?
After hinting for a long time, when Wang Xiaohu left the research institute, he was very frustrated and felt that all his work was in vain.
After the two men left, Mr. Liu actually called his superiors immediately to explain the situation. He was rewarded for his meritorious service. After thinking about it, the superiors immediately called the top leaders of the Ministry of Metallurgy, and finally contacted the steel rolling mill.
……
I got in Luo Chengwu's car and arrived at the gate of the steel rolling mill. When I was about to get off the car, Luo Chengwu took out a bag from the back.
"This is what Mr. Liu asked me to give you. Consider it your reward this time. I'm sure you'll like it."
"Oh? Something I definitely like? Is it money?" Wang Xiaohu opened it curiously, and suddenly a pig's head popped out.
"Ah? Pig's head~"
"What? Do you dislike it? If you do, just give it back to me." Luo Chengwu reached out to take it.
Wang Xiaohu refused and dodged, saying, "Pig head is still meat, right? It's better than nothing."
Then I saw a small bag next to it. When I opened it, there was a stack of food coupons and meat coupons. These were good things, but I couldn't buy food even with the food coupons.
"I'll be leaving this afternoon. They really need the information. We'll see you later."
"Are you in such a hurry?" Wang Xiaohu was reluctant to leave. He had a good chat with this person.
"The information is urgently needed over there, so I won't delay."
"Bon voyage then."
After getting off the car, I carried the pig's head and walked towards the steel mill. The weather was so hot that the meat would easily go bad. Fortunately, the pork had been salted and the food stamps and other things had been put into the space. The pig's head was not easy to collect since so many people saw it.
As soon as he arrived at the Security Department, Section Chief Zhu came over and pulled Wang Xiaohu out: "Hurry up, a big boss wants to see you, be smart, maybe you can get a promotion!"
"Big boss? Why does he want to see me? You asked me to put my pig head down." Wang Xiaohu shouted.
"Wow, what a big pig's head! Let me get it for you. Go quickly to Director Yang's office on the second floor." Section Chief Zhu took the pig's head very smoothly.
Seeing how skilled he was, Wang Xiaohu warned him, "I'm telling you, Old Zhu, although your last name is Zhu, you and Zhutou have different last names, so don't even think about taking advantage of me, Zhutou!"
"Don't worry, you don't believe in my character yet."
"Brother Xiaohu, just go with peace of mind. I'm here." Zhao Lijun appeared at some point.
"And us!" Jin Cancan appeared with a group of people from the security department. Wang Xiaohu secretly cried out that it was bad and that the pig's head might not be saved.
They are all hungry wolves in the jungle. Their eyes turn green when they see flesh. It's terrifying.
