Chapter 213 Secret
The workman found the spot and used a small wrench to knock on the wall in a square area of one foot. After a while, visible wrinkles appeared on the intact wall. The workman used a screwdriver to pry it open and removed a partition. Inside the wall, there was a miniature safe.
Zhang Nianzu and the others looked at each other and couldn't help but stand in awe.
The man in work clothes observed the safe for a while. In addition to the number keys, there was also a flat area in the lower right corner. The man in work clothes said with certainty: "It has double insurance of password and fingerprint. The level is not low." He took out a stethoscope from his bag, put the two legs into his ears , placed the stethoscope on the safe and listened carefully.
Ah San said sincerely, "What a master! He is really different from those thieves who sneak in and pick locks." Then he asked, "How did you determine that the safe was on this wall?"
The man in overalls ignored him, fiddling with his stethoscope with his eyes slightly closed.
Ah San couldn't help but walk up to him and asked curiously, "What did you hear?"
The man in overalls glared at him and said, "I just heard you talking!"
Zhang Nianzu said: "Can you open it?" This was the first time he saw a scene in a movie played out in real life, and he also wanted to know if this trick would work. Why would the safe surrender when it encounters a stethoscope? Has the iron box ever had a heart attack?
The man in overalls put down his stethoscope, rubbed his hands and said, "It's not easy. I didn't expect this family to have such a state-of-the-art thing. I always thought that no one would use this type of safe. Even if it was filled with gold, it wouldn't hold much."
Li Changgui whispered in Zhang Nianzu's ear: "The thing that Du Heng attaches so much importance to must be extraordinary."
Zhang Nianzu nodded and rubbed the surface of the safe with a finger.
The man in overalls yelled, "Don't move. If you press the wrong button, the alarm will be sounded."
Zhang Nianzu was looking for its weak point, but the smaller the object, the more delicate it is. In addition to the keyboard area, there is also a fingerprint area within reach. In order to prevent accidental alarm, Zhang Nianzu did not dare to use force. He said to Li Changgui: "It would be easy if we could take it apart completely."
The man in overalls said disdainfully, "If you can take it down, even a fool would know to take it away first. They dare to leave such a small thing here because they are relying on you not being able to take it away. Otherwise, unless you bring an electric drill, not to mention the police, even the neighbors will come to complain to you."
"Let me try!" Ah San picked up a Chinese chair.
The work clothes man angrily asked, "What are you doing? You expect to break open a safe worth hundreds of thousands of dollars with a chair?"
Ah San ignored his words. He looked up and down for a while, then suddenly stepped on the seat and grabbed the back of the chair with both hands to pull it down. In this way, the chair became a high stool. Ah San propped the four legs of the stool against the wall so that the stool covered the safe, and said to Li Changgui, "Uncle San, help me hold it up."
Li Changgui took the bench as he was told. Ah San retreated to the door and then rushed towards the bench and hit it with his shoulder.
Seeing this, the man in work clothes was anxious and angry, and tried to stop Asan with both hands. Zhang Nianzu grabbed him by the back of the collar and pulled him back. There was a muffled sound from the other side of the wall, and Zhang Nianzu let him go. The man in work clothes turned around and found that the wall had been suddenly hit hard, and the part of the wall where the safe was installed had collapsed a little. His face changed drastically.
Ah San retreated and launched a second attack. This time the man in overalls wanted to hide outside the house.
After several collisions, the wall did not fall down, but it was cracked in an arc. The safe was loose and no longer integrated with the wall.
Li Changgui broke off a stool leg and poked it against the wall, muttering in admiration: "It seems that Ah San is not stupid after all." As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers to grab a corner of the safe, and with both arms he exerted force to lift it out steadily.
The man in overalls was stunned and said in horror: "You...you..."
Zhang Nianzu took the safe and said to him, "Let's make a deal. I'll open it now. The valuables inside will be yours, and the rest will be mine."
"How... do you open it..." The man in work clothes was halfway through his words when he realized that the three people in front of him could not be judged by common sense, so he nodded .
Zhang Nianzu placed it on the table, and his right index finger swept around it, occasionally landing on a certain point, until these points circled the safe. Zhang Nianzu nodded to Li Changgui and Asan, and the two men each grabbed half of the safe and exerted force together.
With a "crack", the pure steel safe split in half like a paper shell, and a USB flash drive fell out of it. Everyone who was waiting eagerly had their own thoughts at this moment. A USB flash drive was not a valuable thing, but only God knew what was inside it. Zhang Nianzu said to the man in work clothes, "You don't need this thing, right?"
The man in overalls slapped his head in annoyance: "I should have just gone and searched through the boxes instead of learning how to be a high-tech thief!"
Li Changgui said: "It's not too late for you to turn over now."
"Yeah, that's right." The workwear man knew his shame and then showed courage. He quickly opened the drawer and took out a lot of US dollars and RMB. He smiled and put them in his bag while saying to Zhang Nianzu and the others, "Shall I give you some?"
Zhang Nianzu glanced at the time and said, "The police are coming soon. We need to withdraw."
The workwear man took out all the money from the drawer, held onto his backpack and said, "I'll quit while I'm ahead. This is fate. We'll meet again in the arena."
When Zhang Nianzu and the others walked to the door, the man in work clothes couldn't help but greet them, "Brother."
Zhang Nianzu turned around, and the man in work clothes hesitated and said, "If there are really important secrets in the USB drive, it should be handed over to the country..."
Zhang Nianzu smiled, walked out the door and sighed: "He is still a patriotic thief."
…
Not long after the three of them left Du Heng's residence, they saw more than a dozen police cars whizzing past them.
In the repair shop, the USB flash drive and the laptop were placed on the table. Three people sat in a triangle around the table. No one spoke, just staring at the USB flash drive quietly.
Ah San couldn't hold back his anger and said, "Brother Nianzu... aren't we going to watch it?"
"Look." Zhang Nianzu pondered, "I'm just a little scared."
Ah San asked, "What are you afraid of?"
Zhang Nianzu said: "No matter what secrets are in it, I can accept it, but what if there is nothing? Or..."
Ah San asked, "Du Heng went to so much trouble to put an empty USB drive in the wall?"
Li Changgui asked, "Nianzu, are you afraid that something about your father may happen here?"
Zhang Nianzu said at a loss: "I can't really say." Finally, he put his hand on the USB drive and made up his mind, "Look! Even if there are only a few old songs of Anita Mui in it, we can still feel nostalgic."
