Chapter 3333: Sudden Changes (74)
“Why… why are you here?”
Yun Shishi was still in shock.
Little Yichen playfully stuck out his tongue and said, “Of course, I’m here to rescue Mommy! Mommy, don’t be afraid; I’ll get you out of here right away.”
“Little Yichen…”
She looked at him as emotions welled up within her.
What she had just witnessed scared the living daylights out of her. Even though she had realized Mu Yichen’s formidable skills, guns and spears were blind. If he suffered even the slightest injury, she would have fallen apart!
The cage was secured by a lock. After studying it for a long ti, Mu Yichen decided to try and pry it open.
Even though the lock could be released with a gun, any carelessness, would result in Mommy being hurt.
After pondering for a long ti, he suddenly removed his watch and broke it apart, removing the hand on the watch face. He bent the thin, needle-like object with his fingers, inserted it into the lock, and turned it.
This was different from the locks he had picked during his training with the troops. It was still a little difficult to pry open this lock!
After all, the locks of different eras were different. With the new generation locks, so of the techniques used to pick locks in the past were no longer applicable to the current technology!
After studying it at length, the boy lowered his head and pressed his ear against the lock to listen carefully to the movent of the chanical structure inside.
Generally speaking, the internal structure of a lock is highly complex. The better the lock, the more detailed the internal structure.
The keyhole component, the lock cylinder, the unlocking chanism, the groove, the push plate, the levers… There are dozens of components. If one is not very familiar with locks, one will not be able to decipher it.
However, no matter what kind of lock, there is always a way to pry it open.
Because there is no technology in this world that could create a perfect lock.
The most perfect lock-picking tool has to be the boorang needle. However, he did not carry such a thing with him. The watch’s pointer was limited in length and rigidity. Therefore, he had to be careful and listen to the movents inside with bated breath, relying on the sound to make a judgnt.
Yun Shishi kept quiet and looked at him nervously.
Mu Yichen suddenly stood up and ran his hand through his hair in frustration.
“Is it impossible to release it?”
Mu Yichen shook his head. Afraid that she would be nervous and worried, he quickly consoled her, “I just don’t have a suitable tool. I’m still missing sothing.”
“What are you missing?”
Mu Yichen turned around and took a look at the few corpses lying in puddles of blood. With the thought of giving it a try, he searched their bodies one by one, but other than pistols and magazines, there seed to be nothing else that was particularly useful.
Until he felt a box of gum on the last person.
He opened it and sniffed it to make sure that there it was nothing out of the ordinary. He tossed one into his mouth and chewed till it was like a ball of mush. Then he returned to the cage, spat out the gum, and slowly stuffed it into the lock.
Yun Shishi watched dumbfounded. She did not know what kind of technique he was using, but she did not dare to make a sound for fear of disturbing his train of thought.
It was Mu Yichen’s sudden idea to use the chewing gum to unlock the door.
When he found the box of gum, he imdiately recalled that it was possible to use chewing gum to pry open locks.
Having studied the structure of the lock carefully, he knew that this was a simple lock, so he could try using gum!
However, he did not have much confidence. He had only seen others attempt such a lock-picking thod, but he had never done it himself!
Nevertheless, he had to try.
