Due to the limited light of Chen Runze's flashlight, it did not illuminate three meters away, and the road ahead fell into darkness again. It seemed that in the middle of the night, they could not see the road farther. Chen Runze lowered his head and found that there were many footprints on the ground of the passage, so he leaned down to inspect these footprints.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan also squatted down. Without waiting for Chen Runze to speak, Zhang Nan said: "Judging from these scattered footprints, the enemy must have been in a hurry when he fled. ”

Chen Runze felt that Zhang Nan's analysis was very reasonable, and he nodded in approval. Then, he added: "Looking at the number of these footprints, there are not many people who have escaped, and there are about a dozen people." ，”

Hearing Chen Runze's inference, Zhang Nan immediately counted them and found that the number of people was similar to what Chen Runze guessed. So she followed: "In general, there are only so many people. However, their footprints are shallow, and it seems that no one is carrying heavy weapons, so we should not be overly concerned. ”

"Well, that's true, but we can't let this only clue be cut off and keep chasing." Chen Runze said resolutely, and after speaking, he got up abruptly and strode forward. And Zhang Nan quickly took small steps and followed him. The size of a man's footsteps is not the same as a woman's, so Zhang Nan had to fight to catch up. However, due to several consecutive battles, Zhang Nan's physical fitness has improved a lot, unlike before, before he began to gasp for breath before he took two steps.

After they walked about ten steps, Chen Runze found that the front had reached the end, but what made Chen Runze feel strange was that the end of this passage was not a wall, but an iron door, and this iron gate was locked.

Zhang Nan also noticed something strange, she immediately ran a few steps and came to Chen Runze. She asked, "What's the matter, don't go forward?" ”

Chen Runze dodged his body, shone at the door with a tactical flashlight, and said to Zhang Nan: "Nan Nan, take a look." ”

Zhang Nan looked at it and immediately said: "It's okay now, it's the end of the road, how to go." But there was an iron door at the end, which was very strange. So saying, she went to check the lock to see if it could be opened.

As soon as Zhang Nan's hand touched the lock, he said in surprise: "Chen Runze, you go forward and take a look, this lock cylinder is still new!" ”

Hearing Zhang Nan say this, Chen Runze was even more puzzled, "New"? Chen Runze walked over, held up the lock with his hand, measured it repeatedly, and said, "It's really new." I thought it was an old lock. ”

"That's what I thought, too. On the surface, it is indeed a rusty old lock, but as soon as you look at the cylinder, you understand. Zhang Nan carefully analyzed, but he didn't expect that there were still people who used locks like this, and they didn't know what their real purpose was.

Chen Runze also found that all this was starting to get confusing. If this group of people escaped, how could they lock the outside from the inside? This logic doesn't make any sense. So the more Chen Runze thought about it, the more confused he became, he really didn't know if the enemy was a trap or something.

But now Chen Runze's purpose is very clear, he wants to open this lock, go inside, and find out.

So Chen Runze said in an inquiring tone: "Zhang Nan, how can we open this lock?" ”

"It's simple, I have a way." Zhang Nan said without thinking, and after speaking, she opened the safety of the pistol and aimed the muzzle at the lock cylinder.

Just as she was about to pull the trigger, Chen Runze grabbed her hand and stopped: "Slow, don't shoot!" If you do this, the movement will be too loud, and if there are enemies hiding around, it will alarm them. There's no cover here, aren't we all targets? ”

After Chen Runze's reminder, she realized that she was a little reckless, it turned out that she was thinking about how to open the lock quickly, and she didn't think about so many follow-up matters at all. It seems that a single mode of thinking really doesn't work, if there is really any accident, the two of them have nowhere to escape. Chen Runze can make a move at a critical moment every time, and it seems that the things in his head are really not comparable to ordinary people. He always looks at one move and thinks about three moves, which is exactly the same as a chess master.

Zhang Nan withdrew his pistol in a daze, and asked modestly, "Do you have any better way?" Did you still come here to ask me? ”

There is no irony in Zhang Nan's questioning, just a rhetorical expression. She wanted to see how Chen Runze opened this lock.

Chen Runze smiled and said: "I said that just now, just to give you a chance to exercise, since you can't do it, then I'll come." For me, unlocking is trivial, and it's completely effortless. ”

When Zhang Nan heard him say this, he felt like he was bragging, if he said something else, Zhang Nan absolutely believed it, and this unlocking was completely a technical job, and it couldn't be done unless he was a skilled craftsman. Besides, Zhang Nan had never seen him open the lock with his own eyes, so Zhang Nan said with a suspicious look: "You are talking big, you have the ability, now you can open it and show me, I will convince you." ”

"If you don't believe it, then I'll show you a look, I promise it will stun you." Chen Runze said confidently, and as he spoke, he took out his pistol.

Seeing him like this, didn't Zhang Nan come exactly according to the method he just did? So she said: "You, don't let me shoot, you want to shoot to unlock, it's really ....."

Zhang Nan said halfway, so he didn't go on, and let Chen Runze make up for the rest.

"Don't be in a hurry. My approach is different from yours! Chen Runze said with great confidence. With that, he removed the pistol's *, then pulled out the spring inside with his fingers and straightened it into a wire.

Chen Runze pinched the wire with his index finger and thumb, shook it in front of the stunned Zhang Nan, and then said, "Look at it, the lock will be opened soon." With that, he slowly fed the wire into the lock cylinder at the bottom, waited for the wire to touch the right position, and then twisted it slightly, and with a "bang", the lock popped open at once.

Chen Runze's series of unlocking operations almost blinded Zhang Nan's kryptonite eyes, and she opened her mouth wide in shock, unable to speak. It's a whimsical idea, and God is manipulating. This kind of thought, even if you kill yourself, is unimaginable, Zhang Nan thought in his heart. This Chen Runze is really not ordinarily simple, what Zhang Nan wants to know more now is, what else will he have? Isn't it three hundred and sixty lines, and I'm proficient in everything.
