Gu Chen also noticed that Ding Liang spoke a little vaguely and seemed mysterious.
What does it mean that a suspicious location is found but it is difficult to investigate?
There seems to be some inconsistency.
Without thinking too much, Gu Chen said directly: "Take me to see it."
"Okay, you come with me."
Ding Liang didn't have time to think too much and took Gu Chen and others directly to the exhibition hall.
When everyone came to a back passage, the rows of lockers immediately made everyone's eyes light up.
The entire passage is filled with various lockers, which is dazzling to see.
Gu Chen turned around and asked Ding Liang: "What are these?"
"The administrator said they are lockers for staff. Sometimes when the exhibition hall needs to receive a large number of tour groups, these lockers are also used as temporary lockers for tourists."
"So many?" Lu Weiwei looked at the densely packed lockers in front of her and suddenly became confused: "How many are there in total?"
"Preliminary estimate, there are more than 800, right?" Ding Liang said.
"More than 800?" Officer Wang frowned when he heard this.
I thought it was possible to hide cultural relics here, but just opening the more than 800 lockers one by one would be a big project.
But it couldn’t be done without opening it. There was no way to find the cultural relics without opening them. Officer Wang still had to bite the bullet and reluctantly said, “Well, let’s all work hard and check these lockers together.”
Glancing at Ding Liang, Officer Wang said again: "Xiao Ding, please bring the key."
"Key?" When Ding Liang heard this, he immediately said with a bitter look: "If I had the key, I would do it myself, and I wouldn't bother you to do it. But the key is that I don't have the key."
"You don't have a key?" Officer Wang was stunned, and couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart, so he said again: "Isn't it normal that you don't have a key? Ask the administrator to get the key."
"He doesn't have the key either." Ding Liang also shook his head, feeling a little helpless.
Officer Wang was stunned at this. He thought to himself: What is going on? In an exhibition hall, even the administrator does not have a locker key? Isn’t this an international joke?
Thinking that Ding Liang might be joking, Officer Wang tentatively said: "Well, Ding Liang, call the administrator over now."
"Okay, wait here for a moment." Ding Liang nodded and trotted away.
Not long after, he walked over quickly with the exhibition hall administrator, the one who helped Gu Chen get the surveillance camera earlier.
"People brought it." Ding Liang said.
The administrator also nodded to Gu Chen: "Officer Gu."
"Where is the key to this locker?" Gu Chen asked him directly.
The administrator said with a bitter look: "I only have one key."
"What?" Lu Weiwei thought her ears heard it wrong.
You know, just looking at the more than 800 lockers, they are also high-end in appearance. It can be seen that the locker merchants have done a lot of promotion to the exhibition hall leaders.
But for this kind of locker, basically one key opens one lock. The administrator said that he only has one, which means he can only open one locker. This is a bit funny.
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, the administrator took out his own set of keys, found a small key, opened locker No. 23, and took out an umbrella.
"This is my own storage box. Each of our employees working in the exhibition hall has his own storage box, and each person is only assigned one key."
"The storage boxes numbered from 1 to 100 are for the exclusive use of our internal employees. All the storage boxes numbered 100 and above are available to tourists. I do not have these keys."
"Then who has it?" Yuan Shasha asked him.
The administrator said: "Our deputy director, he has the keys, but the keys are kept at his home, and he is still on a business trip and will not be back until tonight."
"What about your exhibition tomorrow? How can visitors store items without keys? If these storage boxes cannot provide services to visitors, then do you buy them as decorations?"
Gu Chen also expressed his thoughts.
It feels like these lockers are relatively new and appear to be newly ordered materials for the exhibition hall.
The administrator said with some embarrassment: "Our lockers were installed just before the National Day, and they are just waiting to be used tomorrow."
"But the venue has reserved 100 numbers for our internal employees to use, and I only received one key."
"But tonight when our deputy director comes back from a business trip, he will bring the remaining keys from home. Visitors who buy tickets tomorrow can get a locker key with their tickets for temporary storage."
"But if you want to open all the storage boxes, you can only wait until our deputy director comes home in the evening."
"We still have to wait until night?" Doesn't it feel like this is delaying time?
Especially now that Zhang Qi's whereabouts are unknown, and the cultural relics are also missing.
The longer the delay, the greater the potential for changes.
After all, the mole Lu Junhao and his accomplice Zhang Wei were both caught. If Zhang Qi suddenly changes, there may be many uncertain factors.
Therefore, Lu Weiwei felt that she couldn't afford to wait, so she asked again: "Is there anyone else at his home? Let's go to his home to get the key."
"No." The administrator shook his head and said, "The deputy director is on a business trip, and his family is busy during the National Day holiday, so he just went on a trip and there may be no one at home for a while."
Afraid that the police would wait too impatiently, the administrator comforted him and said, "How about I call the leader and ask him to come back as soon as possible?"
"That's the only way." Gu Chen currently has no other option but to agree with the administrator's opinion.
So the administrator took out his cell phone and started calling the deputy director.
After a while of communication, the administrator's complexion did not improve. His brows were furrowed and he spoke with an anxious tone the whole time.
Gu Chen could tell from the administrator's facial expression that there didn't seem to be any good results.
After hanging up the phone, the administrator said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, comrade police, the deputy director is taking the high-speed train to Jiangnan City at 8pm. It's hard to buy tickets now. I will return to my home in Jiangnan City and come to the exhibition hall after 9pm."
Already."
"So late?" After hearing what the administrator said, Lu Weiwei, who had been a little envious before, suddenly shrank like a deflated ball."
"If you return to the exhibition hall so late, you have to open these storage boxes one by one. Wouldn't it be busy until midnight?"
Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei suddenly said with a bitter face: "It seems that most of today is just waiting."
"Is there no other way?" Yuan Shasha asked again.
"No." The administrator still shook his head.
"For example...pry open these lockers?" Lu Weiwei had a sudden thought.
The administrator immediately stopped him and said, "You can't do it. You can't do it. These lockers have just been purchased and you want to pry them all open? Whose loss is this?"
"Sister Lu, I'm joking with you." Seeing that the administrator was extremely nervous, Gu Chen also smiled and said, "Just think about it, how long does it take to pry open one locker? How long does it take to pry open more than 800 lockers?
How long will it take? If we have this time, it’s better to wait.”
"That's right." Seeing that Gu Chen was a sensible person, the manager finally let go of his worries and said a little apologetically: "I'm really sorry, why don't you go to other places first and then look for it?"
"Okay." Gu Chen agreed with this statement.
At present, it is somewhat difficult to find Zhang Qi, but it seems not difficult to find cultural relics.
It is unlikely that the cultural relics will be taken away from the exhibition hall, so as long as you search carefully, it is still possible to find clues, it just takes time.
But from the current point of view, there is a high possibility that the cultural relics are hidden in storage boxes.
After all, I learned from Zhang Wei that he and Zhang Qi were both habitual thieves.
For a professional thief, picking the locks of several lockers is no problem.
But it is indeed difficult for me to pry open more than 800 lockers.
Even if you have the keys, opening more than 800 lockers one by one is still a big project.
Seeing that everyone started to search separately, Gu Chen still stood in front of the honeycomb lockers and began to check the lockers from left to right.
Since they are newly purchased materials for the exhibition hall, the paint smell of the lockers is still a bit strong.
When Gu Chen walked all the way to the far right, he suddenly found a small mark written in pencil on the outside of the locker on the far right.
Ordinary people may not be able to see clearly, but Gu Chen has a master's level of observation, and such subtle clues cannot escape his eyes.
"What is this?" Gu Chen leaned forward slightly and looked carefully at a series of marks on the outside.
The mark was marked as X 396 = 824, which was an addition formula. Gu Chen quickly calculated in his mind that
At this time, Lu Weiwei, after searching the surrounding area, didn't find much, so she walked back to Gu Chen.
But he saw Gu Chen bowing his body, staring at the outer box on the right side of the locker, thinking for a while.
Out of curiosity, Lu Weiwei also poked her head in and said, "Junior Brother Gu, what are you doing?"
"I'm looking at this formula." Gu Chen said.
"Formula?" Lu Weiwei was stunned, and followed Gu Chen's eyes as she glanced in front of her, with a puzzled look on her face: "Where is the formula here?"
"Here." Gu Chen knocked twice on the outer locker.
Lu Weiwei suddenly narrowed her eyes and bowed even more.
After a moment, Lu Weiwei was also in disbelief and said: "I wonder, Junior Brother Gu, you can actually find such a small formula written in pencil? Your eyes are really amazing."
"Who would leave a formula here?" Gu Chen crossed his arms and looked thoughtful.
Lu Weiwei smiled lightly and said, "Maybe it's a mark made by the locker installer for assembly, right?"
"That's not right." Gu Chen shook his head, pointed to the outer formula and said, "Senior Sister Lu, take a closer look at this formula."
"Look carefully?" Lu Weiwei was confused, but she didn't know what Gu Chen meant. So she bowed again, looked at the formula on the outside, and casually read out: "X 396 = 824? Isn't this just an addition formula? X is equal to
……equal……"
Lu Weiwei was not as good at mental arithmetic as Gu Chen. It took her a few seconds to read out the answer: "X is equal to 428."
When she saw that Gu Chen was unmoved and just stared at her, Lu Weiwei's eyes were stunned, and she thought about it for a few seconds, as if she suddenly realized it.
"Could it be that...this formula was left behind by Zhang Qi?"
Gu Chen nodded silently: "That's very likely. After all, if you think about it, even if the locker installer temporarily wrote the calculation formula, why should there be an 'X'? Is it necessary? And this formula is correct for
It doesn’t seem like half a dime to install a locker, right?”
"That's right." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei felt even more fishy.
He was muttering something in his mouth, so he added: "Then X is equal to 428. Could it be that Zhang Qi made the mark himself but didn't want others to know the meaning, so he assumed it was X?"
"If that's the case, would he have hidden the cultural relics in locker No. 428?"
Thinking about it this way, there seems to be nothing wrong. Lu Weiwei suddenly looked at Gu Chen and asked, "Junior Brother Gu, what do you think?"
"It's very possible." Gu Chen nodded silently and said, "Call that Zhang Wei over quickly. This guy is a habitual thief. I think it shouldn't be a problem to pick the lock of a locker."
"Yes, just look for him." Lu Weiwei suddenly felt that this guard seemed to have some effect at this moment.
So Lu Weiwei asked Gu Chen to wait here while she ran all the way to find Zhang Wei.
Not long after, Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong, together with Police Officer Wang, Yuan Shasha, Lu Weiwei and the exhibition hall administrator, brought Zhang Wei to Gu Chen.
"Junior Brother Gu, we have already arrived." Lu Weiwei pushed Zhang Wei forward.
Zhang Wei was also confused at this moment. He didn't know what had happened to him. He looked at Gu Chen with a puzzled look.
Gu Chen took out the key, opened the rose gold handcuffs on Zhang Wei's hands, pointed at locker No. 428 and said, "Can you open this locker?"
"You mean... no key?" Zhang Wei seemed to understand what Gu Chen meant.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But before Gu Chen could speak, Lu Weiwei said angrily: "We are looking for you if you have a key? Let you open it without a key."
"Uh..." Zhang Wei began to hesitate after hearing this.
Lu Weiwei felt that this guy was causing trouble again, so she reminded: "I want to ask you, can I open it?"
"It's okay." Zhang Wei raised his head and said to Gu Chen: "But Officer Gu, you have to find me a piece of wire."
Gu Chen glanced at the exhibition manager next to him and asked him: "Can you bring me some wire?"
"This... there seems to be a warehouse. Why don't you wait here and I'll go look for it right away?" the administrator said.
Gu Chen nodded slightly: "Then I'll trouble you."
The administrator said "You're welcome" and ran quickly to the end of the aisle.
About three or four minutes later, the administrator returned directly to Gu Chen with a long wire.
"This is the only one, do you think it's okay?" The administrator handed the wire to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen glanced at Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei nodded immediately: "Let's make do with it, everyone, give in."
After taking over the wire and pushing the crowd away, Zhang Wei began to twist the wire.
Soon, he put his ear against the locker, used the twisted wire in his hand to reach into the keyhole, and stirred.
In less than 20 seconds, a "click" sound was heard in the locker, and the originally locked locker collapsed.
"Opened?" Looking at the magical operation in front of her, Lu Weiwei finally knew why this guy was in jail.
With this kind of technology, picking locks is like playing house, and everyone will have some strange ideas.
Before Zhang Wei could complain in front of him, Gu Chen directly pushed him away, then opened the locker and looked down.
At this moment, a delicate porcelain pot is placed in it.
Gu Chen quickly put on his white gloves, gently took out the porcelain pot from the locker, and showed it in front of everyone.
"This..." The administrator was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief: "Is this a lost cultural relic?"
"Xiao Yuan, go and find the security manager Zou Wenqing." Gu Chen also wanted to know whether this was a lost cultural relic.
Yuan Shasha agreed immediately and left quickly.
Not long after, Zou Wenqing, led by Yuan Shasha, trotted over.
"Have you found any cultural relics?" Zou Wenqing asked Gu Chen excitedly.
Gu Chen casually showed the porcelain pot in his hand in front of him: "Is this it?"
"Yes, this porcelain pot is indeed one of the 10 lost cultural relics." Zou Wenqing was very excited when he saw the lost cultural relics recovered.
So he asked Gu Chen again: "What about the other cultural relics? Where are the other lost cultural relics?"
Seeing that Gu Chen suddenly didn't speak, locker No. 428 behind Gu Chen was open.
So Zou Wenqing directly bent down and searched the lockers.
But the locker was empty, there was nothing.
Zou Wenqing was a little confused and asked: "Did Officer Gu find this cultural relic from the locker?"
"That's right." Gu Chen nodded and admitted.
"Shouldn't it be right?" Zou Wenqing suddenly felt a little confused and quickly asked: "But why is there only this one porcelain pot? Where are the other nine cultural relics?"
"Maybe it's still hidden in these lockers?" Lu Weiwei guessed.
Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, Zou Wenqing breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pleaded: "Officer Gu, since you can find one cultural relic, please help me find other cultural relics. After all, there are 10 cultural relics missing.
It’s not good to be missing 9 pieces.”
"Whether you can find the key depends on how to open the lock." Officer Wang also spoke for Gu Chen: "You must know that we also cracked the calculation formula left on the locker by the thief, and then calculated the number '428'."
"That's why Zhang Wei was asked to use his best skills to pry open the lock of the locker. If you want to find other items, you have to rely on Zhang Wei."
"No, please don't." Upon hearing that Officer Wang wanted to use him as a tool, Zhang Wei refused on the spot: "If you ask me to pry into one or two lockers, I can barely agree. After all, the one I just pried into was
The difficulty level of the locker is not very high.”
Glancing at the densely packed honeycomb lockers in front of him, Zhang Wei immediately cried out: "But there are more than 800 of them here. If you ask me to pry over 800 of them, you might as well let me die."
"Pfft." Lu Weiwei couldn't help laughing after hearing Zhang Wei's words.
Also, although this guy is usually a habitual thief, he probably has done a lot of lock picking.
Allowing him to pry open more than 800 lockers at one time is a bit overwhelming and unrealistic.
After thinking about it, I realized that Zhang Qi was so cunning that he only put one cultural relic in a locker.
Lu Weiwei wanted to curse on the spot, but she did not do that. Instead, she directly discussed it with Gu Chen: "Junior brother Gu, you said that Zhang Qi is really cunning. He only left himself a locker number with a formula."
Answer."
"The other nine cultural relics must also be hidden in these more than 800 lockers. It is really difficult to find out."
"There must be a pattern." Gu Chen thought for a moment, but still felt that something was wrong.
