43: Picking the lock on the police station? Wait, what’s inside?Up ahead, Officer Chen urged Lin Pei on.

”Can you open it yet? Do you need to get into a stance or something?”

”Weren’t you opening them quite smoothly back at the villa?”

”I think you’re just feeling guilty...”

”Beep!”

Before Officer Chen could finish, Lin Pei had already reached out and opened the door to the Evidence Section.

He wanted to say that the reason he opened them so smoothly at the villa was because they were searching a criminal’s home.

Picking a lock at the police station gave him a bit of a psychological burden.

Beside him, Officer Chen was stunned for a moment.

Wait, he really can open it?

Steadying his nerves, he led Lin Pei into the Evidence Section.

Everyone immediately crowded around the door to watch.

”Lin Pei already picked the lock, so what are they going in there for?”

”I don’t know. Officer Chen’s train of thought is unusual; ordinary people really can’t understand it sometimes.”

Inside the room, Officer Chen walked up to a small safe.

”Lin Pei, open it.”

Another one?

Lin Pei marveled at Officer Chen’s persistence and rigor.

True, opening one lock could be a fluke, or a lucky guess of the password.

Opening a few more would prove he was truly capable.

But could he really open a safe belonging to the police station?

Officer Chen caught his hesitant expression, and a smile unconsciously tugged at the corner of his mouth.

”What? Can’t open it?”

”Or do you need tools...”

”Beep!”

Lin Pei reached out and instantly opened that safe as well.

Officer Chen stood frozen on the spot.

He opened it again?!

He could hardly believe his eyes.

After a long while, Officer Chen pointed to a safe in the corner.

”Open that one too.”

Everyone looked toward the corner.

The material of that safe looked extraordinary.

When it was first recovered, the people from the Technical Section had tinkered with it for a long time.

They couldn’t figure out the password, and electric drills couldn’t cut through it.

As a result, the team never knew what was inside, and the case had remained unresolved.

Compared to the safes in the thief’s house, its security level was even higher.

The people at the door squeezed right in.

”I say, Officer Chen, are you using Lin Pei as free labor for lockpicking?”

”But to be honest, this one is indeed hard to open. It’s been sitting in the station for half a month.”

”Lin Pei, if you can open this one too, it’ll be like you’ve performed a great service for the team.”

As a good citizen with a sense of honor and responsibility—who had once been awarded the ’Three-Good Primary Student’ title—Lin Pei’s blood boiled at the mention of performing a service.

He reached out, and with a ’beep,’ he opened that safe too.

Due to his excitement, his speed was even faster than when he opened the other locks.

As the notification sound for the successful opening of the safe rang out, the crowd burst into praise.

”Whoa, he really opened it? Lin Pei, you’re amazing!”

”I thought this safe would never be opened again.”

”I believe it now. No matter the door or the lock, Lin Pei can open it just by reaching out.”

”How exactly does he open them? I still haven’t seen it clearly.”

”At this speed, even if you saw it clearly, you wouldn’t be able to learn it.”

Not only was the evidence room buzzing, but the livestream chat was even livelier.

”Now you know, right? Lin Pei is definitely not in cahoots with those thieves.”

”Ah... Teacher Lin Pei can not only open ordinary door locks, but he also opened the lock to my heart...”

”To the thirsty girl upstairs, forget it. Lin Pei is mine.”

”...Lin Pei is indeed not with them, but with this technique, would you believe it if he said he’s never done anything shady?”

”I don’t quite believe it. With this guy, if he wanted to steal something, wouldn’t it be a matter of minutes? With this skill, why be an actor and suffer through filming?”

”Don’t say that. He might just be a good person who happens to have a talent in this area.”

”You guys didn’t see it, but it’s not just lockpicking. Before, when he was with the Film Crew, he filmed a scene of stealing a painting on location, and it was incredibly smooth.”

”I saw that livestream too. That technique feels like something you couldn’t master without decades of practice.”

”...”

In front of the safe, Officer Chen finally accepted the fact.

That is, Lin Pei really could open all sorts of locks with his bare hands.

And he did it very casually.

After a long pause, he uttered three words that startled Lin Pei.

He said, ”Lin Pei, teach me.”

”...”

This was indeed a bit difficult for Lin Pei.

The system seemed to have upgraded his hands; he probably couldn’t teach anyone else.

Officer Chen seemed to interpret his look.

”You think my hands aren’t good enough? Or my brain?”

Lin Pei gave a sheepish smile.

It looked like both were probably not up to par.

The surrounding Police Officers were stunned for a long time.

”Officer Chen’s logic jumps too much, doesn’t it? He was just suspecting the guy, and now he’s asking him to teach him?”

”Maybe he wants to be able to rely on himself to open the safes the team seizes in the future?”

Officer Chen looked at his own hands, his expression gloomy.

”No, I have to try and learn.”

”Those thieves actually said that it’s impossible for the police to open their locks.”

”Why can’t the police do it?”

”If the police can’t, but others can?”

”Hah, preposterous!”

Everyone suddenly understood.

The expressions of those thieves when they said those words immediately appeared before their eyes.

They dared to look down on the police?

Preposterous!

How could they allow themselves to be belittled by a group of thieves?

In their shared indignation, everyone looked at Lin Pei in unison.

”Lin Pei, I want to learn too.”

”Me too! Take a look at my brain and hands, can I be taught?”

”Hey, I still haven’t learned that Flying Dagger technique from last time.”

The Female Reporter also raised her hand.

”I’ll learn too.”

The livestream camera shook for a moment because of her movement.

”Ouch, that shake... I thought I had a concussion.”

”I don’t understand, how did the plot evolve into this?”

”Maybe these officers have all been conquered by Brother Lin’s charm.”

Lin Pei was dumbfounded.

If he said he couldn’t teach any of them, would these officers think he was looking down on them too?

At that moment, someone suddenly cried out.

”Look inside the safe, what is this?”

Hearing this, everyone looked forward.

After Lin Pei opened the safe, it had only opened a crack.

Through that gap, one could vaguely see white objects inside, seemingly filling the safe to the brim.

Officer Chen’s eyes widened as he fully opened the safe door.

*Hiss.*

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

Is this... Drugs?

And so much of it?!

When the Female Reporter stepped forward to film, she realized the livestream was still on.

Startled, she felt she had been far too careless.

She immediately clicked to end the livestream with a ’snap.’

Soon, everyone called Xu Feng over.

Xu Feng had a lot of experience in handling cases and had dealt with many drug trafficking cases.

Having had many dealings with Narcotics Police, he naturally knew some of the tricks of the trade.

He took out a small bag of the stuff, took a pinch, and rubbed it between his fingers.

He then brought it to his nose and sniffed, his expression instantly becoming even more solemn.

”It’s Drugs.”

Everyone’s faces looked grim.

They thought it was a simple case of debauchery, but they didn’t expect drug trafficking to be involved.

And the perpetrator of that case had already been released after his detention period ended.

Before long, Xu Feng held a brief meeting with two teams of Criminal Police Officers.

Afterward, several police squads assembled and set out to arrest the criminal.

As it turned out... they encountered the trio of thieves in the courtyard, just as they were about to flee.
