It's better to work overtime generously. Anyway, I haven't done much overtime in the past.
Seeing that there was no movement in the corridor, Tatsuya Kadono certainly did not think that everything would be fine, so he turned around and continued writing. About half an hour later, when I had almost finished writing, I heard footsteps outside the corridor, and then stopped at my door, followed by a knock on the door.
Kadono Tatsuya stood up, came to the door, and opened the door. Just look at two guards standing outside with guns on their backs. The two guards immediately stood at attention when they saw Tatsuya Kadono. One of them said: "It turns out that you are working overtime. We happened to see the lights on in your office when we were patrolling, so we knocked on the door to take a look and disturbed you." After saying that, he and his companions bowed to him at the same time.
"Ah, it doesn't matter." Tatsuya Kadono smiled and said, "I know this is your responsibility, and I understand it very well. I was rushing to finish the manuscript, and some ideas and inspiration came to me, so I wanted to finish it in one go."
"Hi." The guard said, "Then we won't disturb you."
"Okay. You guys get busy." After finishing speaking, Kadono Tatsuya nodded to the guard, closed the door and immediately lay on the side, listening to the guard's footsteps walking further and further away. Then Tatsuya Kadono quickly returned to his desk, opened the small cabinet below, took out the spy camera and handed in the papers. He put one of the papers inside. Then he put the others in his pocket. Then, he took the execution plan he had written, opened the door and took another look, but there was no one there. Then he came directly to the door of Toshiyuki Kigata's office.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk." Tatsuya Kadono knocked on the door gently while looking at both sides. This is done just in case. After knocking on the door again, Tatsuya Kadono was almost certain that no one was inside. So, I took out two crochet hooks. This move was also taught to him by Wei Min. He was not very skilled at it either, but the principle was already clear. He tinkered for a full minute before unlocking the door. But that's fine. For a minute, there was no response to my knock on the door, so now I was even more sure that there was no one inside.
But he didn't dare to be careless. These days, besides opening safes, he also taught him some other knowledge. One of them is to be careful with secret notes. After Tatsuya Kadono opened the lock, he immediately checked the cracks in the door up and down, left and right. He also specially brought a lighter. Although he also had a flashlight, he was afraid that the light would be too bright. If he really encountered a patrolman, he might not be able to see him, but he might feel something when he turns a corner. The presence of a light source.
After lighting the lighter and looking around, Tatsuya Kadono was not careless. Speaking of doing this for the first time, he was even more cautious. So after pushing the door open a little, he checked around again. In this way, every time he pushed a little away, he checked around it. It took about five minutes until the door was fully opened.
These five minutes are the most dangerous. Once someone comes, for example, if he hears footsteps, he needs to return to his office immediately. No one can see him, otherwise, he will be exposed as a mole.
Fortunately, he had deliberately waited for a wave of guard patrols before, giving him plenty of time. After opening the door, he also used a lighter on the ground near the door, but found nothing wrong. Then he walked in. Then he immediately closed the door and stopped to breathe for a while, which relieved the tension.
I looked at the situation inside the house. Blocking it with his hand, he lit the lighter again, squatting half-crouched, and taking a step forward every time a little bit of the ground was illuminated, and finally walked behind Toshiyuki Kigada's desk. This is a safe built into the wall.
He unbuttoned his coat, revealing the medical stethoscope he wore inside, and then first used a lighter to shine through the four cracks in the safe door. Then he put away the lighter, looked at his watch, and then at the current rotary combination lock, remembering it in his mind. Then, he placed the sound receiving end of the stethoscope on the right side of the safe, about ten centimeters away from the door crack.
This is the core position of the mechanical movement inside the 069D-type safe. Then Tatsuya Kadono closed his eyes and began to slowly turn the knob. He turned very slowly. After all, he was not yet proficient. He had to first determine the consistency of the knob based on the feel and hearing.
To put it clearly, only one position of the knob is correct, and the other positions are wrong. Then he has to look at all the wrong positions and the consistency during rotation. Only by identifying these consistencies and remembering them can you find the correct location for one of them. This requires careful discrimination through touch and hearing.
In fact, this method is basically impossible in later generations. Because the craft quality of later generations has been very, very high, although the mechanical principles are similar, due to the advancement of technology and materials, it is impossible to find inconsistent "feelings" just by using human hands and hearing. It is very smooth and very soundproof. The smoothness itself means low friction. If the friction is small, the sound will be smaller. In addition, the material is also very soundproof, and it is impossible for sensitive ears to feel it in this way.
But this era is different, and the materials are not yet good enough. Although it is also very small, with a stethoscope, you can indeed pick up some sounds of internal mechanical movements. It's just that if ordinary people don't understand this thing, even if you can hear it, you still feel the same and can't tell the difference.
But Kadono Tatsu was different. Weimin had already told him the principles and tricks of magic. He couldn't do other magic, but he had no problem doing this single magic. Patiently, he turned the combination lock bit by bit. After a full circle, he basically confirmed the consistency of the feeling.
Then he reset the combination lock and started turning it again. This time it was different. The first time was to look for consistency, this time it was to find one of the inconsistent "feelings" after determining the consistency, which requires a lot of patience. If the psychological quality is not up to par, in this environment, it is very easy to run out of patience.
But Tatsuya Kadono knew that he had one night. Just avoid the patrol time. But he didn't turn on the light in this room either. But to be on the safe side, he'd better return to his office the next time the guards patrol, just to be prepared.
Finally, when Tatsuya Kadono twisted it to one of the positions, he felt a slight inconsistency...
