Chapter 21 This guy's name is the same as Su Rui's brother

As soon as the special meeting ended, Li Anmin found Wang Li, explained his purpose, and patted Wang Li on the shoulder: "Xiao Wang, I'll leave the matter to you. I'll give you two hours."

"what?"

"Only two hours?"

Wang Li almost cried after hearing this.

"Captain Li, there are at least 800 registered locksmiths over the years, if not 1,000. These are the ones who have opened locksmith companies. There are also some who don't have locksmith companies but have the skills. If you add it up, there must be a few thousand. Even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't finish them all in a day!"

It takes time to make a phone call. You have to confirm the information and tell the other party some of the issues that may be involved in the unlocking. After saying all this, if the other party is unwilling, you have to persuade them a little more, right?

After all this, a phone call would take at least three minutes.

After an hour, there were only about 20 to 30 people at most.

This is still relatively efficient. If the efficiency is poor, there may only be about ten in an hour.

Considering the time wasted when someone doesn't answer the phone, how many effective calls can be made in an hour?
Li Anmin slapped Wang Li in anger and said, "Don't you know how to recruit people from other departments? At this moment, the gold robbery is the most important task in the bureau. Other departments have to make way for it. Director Xing also said this at the special meeting just now."

"You should have said so earlier!"

Hearing this, Wang Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I'll go find someone right away."

Wang Li took on the task and printed out the information of the locksmiths who had been registered over the years in the system. He also transferred a dozen people from other places, with each person responsible for fifty or sixty people.

In this way, two hours is enough.

……

Wang Li took a list of about fifty-three people, sat in front of the phone, and called each one in order.

"Hello, is this Master Zhou?"

"you are?"

"I'm Officer Wang Li from the Beijiang Public Security Bureau. I heard that you're pretty good at picking locks. We're facing a problem right now. We don't remember the password to the safe, and we can't crack it by brute force. I was wondering if you could help us if you have the time?"

"sure!"

Working for the policeman would not only win his favor, but he would also get a hefty commission. As soon as Master Zhou heard this, he agreed without hesitation.

However, when Wang Li said that there was a bomb installed in the safe, Master Zhou's face suddenly changed, and he stammered, "That... Officer Wang, my lock picking skills are only half-baked, and I may not be able to help you."

"That's it, I'm done!"

"Master Zhou, wait a minute!"

"Master Zhou, hello, Master Zhou?"

Hearing the rapid beeping sound in his ears, Wang Li felt helpless.

What number is this?

Wang Li couldn't remember clearly, but as long as the call could be connected, the locksmiths would readily agree to the request at first. But when they heard that there was a bomb installed in the safe and that there was a risk to life, they would refuse faster than anyone else.

"Wang Li, which one are you?" someone suddenly asked.

"The seventh one."

"Aren't you coming?"

"Who's coming?"

"We pay a lot of commission, nearly ten thousand per trip, and we also buy insurance and other things."

"Who isn't afraid of death?"

"I've already beaten more than a dozen people. As soon as you heard there was a bomb, you were killed without even being given a chance to speak. No amount of money is more important than your life!"

"Besides, the commission we give may seem high, but after all, it involves bombs, so it's still a bit low."

"No way, it's just this little money."

"Brother Wang, why don't you go talk to Captain Li and ask him to increase the commission? Otherwise, no one will be willing to come."

Wang Li spread his hands and said, "If it could be raised, it would have been raised long ago. Why would I have to say that? The bureau only has so much funding each year. This money has to be separated from other expenses. Otherwise, it would only be a few thousand yuan."

“Who would be willing to do this for a few thousand dollars?”

"Let's give it a try first. Maybe someone is willing to do it."

Everyone had no choice but to continue making phone calls.

After an hour, Wang Li looked up and asked, "Is there any master willing to come?"

"without!"

"Not one."

Wang Li didn't ask any more questions. Looking at the twenty or so people left on the list, he no longer had any hope in his heart.

So many people in front of us were unwilling to do so, but the ones later on were willing to do so?

However, we have been fighting for so long, we can't give up now.

So Wang Li continued to contact the locksmiths in order.

"Hey! Master Wu, please don't hang up."

"No, Officer Wang, please find someone else for this job. I have parents and children to take care of. I won't do it even if you pay me more!"

"Master Wu, please listen to me first. The bomb is very small and it is protected by a safe. At most you will get hurt, but it shouldn't be fatal."

"You should find someone else!"

"unless……"

"Unless what?"

"Unless you can wear an explosion-proof suit, but Officer Wang, your hands won't be as flexible after you put on an explosion-proof suit, and we have to listen to the sound when we open the lock. If you don't have protection above your head, it's useless no matter how much you wear underneath."

At this point, Master Wu directly rejected Wang Li: "Officer Wang, that's it, I'm hanging up, please try with someone else."

Wang Li felt helpless.

More than forty people were beaten.

Seeing that there were less than ten people left, Wang Li wanted to give up.

At this time, Li Anmin came over, patted Wang Li on the shoulder and said, "Wang Li, how is it? Is there a locksmith willing to come and help us?"

Wang Li's face was full of bitterness: "I've asked almost six or seven hundred people, but no one is willing to help. There are a few who really want to help, but when they heard about the bomb, they backed off. This really needs a recruited locksmith to do it. Others won't do it at all."

"Captain Li, I'm telling the truth, please don't be angry."

"You speak."

Wang Li paused and said, "The commission we gave this time is really too little. After all, it is related to bombs and may endanger lives. It is normal for ordinary locksmiths to be unwilling to take this kind of work. How about you talk to Director Xing and increase the commission?"

"Increase commission?"

Li Anmin shook his head: "This has nothing to do with the commission. Most people would not agree to this job if they knew there was a bomb. Even if you raise the commission to 100,000, believe it or not, no one would be willing to take this job."

"It's because you need to listen to open the lock. If you listen, you can't have any protection above your head. If the bomb explodes, the probability of death is too high."

Wang Li looked hesitant.

"Just say whatever you want to say!"

"Don't be so fussy like a woman."

Wang Li gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't we stop making the next calls? Instead of putting our hopes on the registered locksmiths, we might as well ask the higher-ups for a few more people. We don't have that kind of people, so maybe the higher-ups don't have them either?"

"Didn't the province catch a few thieves who stole from bank vaults a few years ago? They can even open bank vaults, so this kind of safe shouldn't be a piece of cake for them?"

Li Anmin thought for a moment and said, "I'll report this to Director Xing. You can try to fight over here as well."

Although he no longer had any hope, Li Anmin was unwilling to give up just like that.

"Fine!"

Wang Li had no choice but to sit down and continue to contact the locksmiths in order.

Soon, it was the last person’s turn. Repeated rejections made Wang Li a little desperate. He lowered his head and looked at the last person on the list.

Next to him, a police officer who was about the same age as Wang Li also called the last person: "Is this Master Su?"

"Master Su?" Su Rui was a little confused when he received the call. When did he become a master?
Su Rui was in no hurry to admit it. There were many scam calls these days. "Who are you?"

"Oh, let me introduce myself. I'm Officer Li from the Beijiang Public Security Bureau."

"Hello, Officer Li!" Although he didn't know why the people from Beijiang Public Security Bureau called him, Su Rui still greeted them politely.

"Officer Li, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Oh, that's right."

"I saw in the background that Master Su has registered with the police station because he can open locks. We just happen to have something we would like to ask you for help."

Su Rui was shocked. He had just gone to register in the morning, and the Beijiang Public Security Bureau called him in the afternoon?
And he even asked me to do him a favor. Could it be that there was a burglary?

Thinking of this, Su Rui quickly asked: "Officer Li, what's the matter?"

"that is……"

Officer Li didn't hold out much hope, but since Su Rui had asked, he still patiently explained, "We are facing a problem right now. We can't open a safe without the password, and opening it violently will damage the contents. I wonder if you can help with this?"

"Of course, it's not free, there's a commission."

"Open the safe?"

Su Rui has been itching to open the door these days, and has no interest in ordinary door locks. When he heard that he was asked to help open the safe, he immediately agreed: "Sure, sure, when, Officer Li, please tell me the time and place, but I'm not a locksmith, and I don't have any tools on hand. You may need to provide the tools."

Officer Li immediately said: "The tools are fine. We will definitely prepare them. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"This safe that we want you to open, Master Su, is a little special..."

Officer Li hesitated, then gritted his teeth and said, "There is a bomb installed inside. Don't try the password easily. If you enter the wrong password, there may be an explosion."

Well……

Hearing this, Su Rui suddenly thought of something.

Why is it that the safe that Officer Li mentioned is similar to what he guessed when he interrogated Yuan Cheng before?
Could this really be the safe where Yuan Cheng and his team hid the gold and diamonds?

Su Rui was not sure, so he asked in a deep voice: "May I ask, is the safe that Officer Li mentioned the safe that contained the gold and diamonds from the gold robbery three years ago?"

Officer Li's eyes almost popped out of his head.

What the hell?

Do all the locksmiths out there know about this?
Officer Li was extremely surprised.

The arrest of the culprits in the gold robbery did not cause any stir in society. Even some media did not receive any information about it. As for the safe containing the gold and diamonds, no one knew about it.

At this point, Officer Li began to suspect that someone inside had leaked the news.

"Master Su knows about this?"

Officer Li didn't ask any more questions. No matter who spread the news, it was not his place to ask.

"I've heard of some."

Su Rui didn't give much explanation.

"Then you..."

"If it involves that case, then I accept it. Send me the time and place later and I will rush over." Su Rui agreed directly.

Officer Li was prepared for Su Rui to refuse, but he didn't expect Su Rui to agree. For a moment, he even doubted whether he had heard it wrong.

"Master Su, are you... agreeing to this?" Officer Li asked in disbelief.

"Ah."

"Really agreed?"

"How could I joke with Officer Li about this kind of thing?"

Officer Li took a breath and said with gratitude: "Thank you, Master Su, you have helped me a lot. I will send you the time and place right away, but there is one thing I still need to make clear to you."

"Officer Li, please speak."

"This time the unlocking is a little special and may endanger your life. Also, after I send you the location, you cannot forward it to anyone else, nor can you disclose this mission to anyone else."

"I agreed."

"Thank you so much."

"It's okay, you're welcome."

After hanging up the phone with Su Rui, Officer Li couldn't help but clench his fists with tears in his eyes.

It was not easy. After making calls for the whole afternoon, he had completely given up. He didn't even plan to make the last call because no one would come anyway.

If it were him, he wouldn't be willing to do that either.

But now that he is a policeman, he has the responsibility to protect the safety of citizens.

There are some things that he can't choose not to do just because he wants to.

It’s like, when encountering danger outside, ordinary people can run away for their own safety, but they are different. Not only can they not run away, but they have to go even if they know they will die.

Because that's our job as a police officer.

The same is true for lock picking. Even if the recruited lock pickers are non-staff, they have to help when encountering difficulties. Of course, there are also some staff lock pickers, but there are not many of them.

After all, lock picking jobs don't come around often.

If you were an ordinary person, knowing the danger, you could just refuse directly.

Officer Li could understand that, too.

No one is not afraid of death.

Only those who fear death are human beings.

But he never expected that even so, there would be someone willing to help.

To say I wasn't moved would be a lie.

After making the last call, Wang Li, who looked disappointed, suddenly heard Officer Li beside him excitedly thanking the other person. He asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Li Yu? Why are you so excited?"

"Even if they don't want to, there's no need to get so excited, right? It would be bad if it gets out and affects the reputation of our Beijiang Branch."

"Why are your eyes still red?"

Wang Li frowned: "What did the other party say that was unpleasant?"

"But... well, don't feel bad. After all, it's normal for people to be excited when you tell them about this kind of thing. It would be a problem if they didn't curse. You are at heart." Wang Li patted the other person's shoulder and comforted him.

"I don't care."

Li Yu said unhappily, "The other party agreed. I was just about to send him the time and place."

"???"

Wang Li thought he had heard it wrong.

"You... said he agreed?"

Li Yu nodded heavily, extremely excited: "For the last one, I had given up, but I didn't expect him to agree. I was shocked."

"Who?"

"Are you so brave?"

Wang Li asked curiously.

Li Yu pointed to the list in his hand and said the last name: "Hey, this is Master Su Rui."

"Su Rui?"

This name was so familiar that Wang Li quickly took the list and took a look. When he saw the familiar name, his eyes suddenly widened like bells.
