Chapter 27 Section five

When Gryphon came home in the evening, Falcon was upstairs in his room playing computer games.Hearing Master's voice, he came downstairs and shouted respectfully: "Master, you are back." "Hmm." Gryphon is a short, lean old man, and the furrowed wrinkles on his face record his experience and vicissitudes.At this moment, with a flushed face, he sat on the sofa and said to Falcon, "Come here, I'll tell you something." Compared with the old one, the young one is a big boy with delicate features, white and beautiful.Seeing Master's expression, he knew that there was another "big deal", and immediately sat next to Master.

Gryphon looked at his apprentice, his expression hinted that what he was going to say next was very important. "I was in the park this morning and heard something from an old man who kept birds." Falcon listened intently. Griffin continued: "I heard that a month ago, something happened at the home of the president of the Xialan Consortium - his six-year-old young master was accidentally locked in a safe while playing. As a result, the child suffocated to death It's inside." Speaking of this, Griffin stopped talking as if deliberately whetting his appetite, as if he wanted to see if the apprentice could guess what happened next.

Falcon's imagination is obviously not rich enough to complete the follow-up.After a few seconds of pause, he asked, "And then?" "The president was too sad and couldn't bear to take his son's body out of the safe, so he ordered someone to contact a cemetery and buried the safe together with the child's body." Falcon frowned, a little confused: "Can't bear to take it out? Master... what do you mean? Can't the safe be opened?" "Yes. The child may have changed the password randomly while playing, and then hid in. As a result, no one knew what the password was - he just suffocated to death inside."

"Is it an electronic combination lock?" "Yes." The griffin looked into the falcon's eyes. Falcon opened his mouth and nodded slightly, as if realizing the relationship between this matter and himself.He rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then asked, "Then there should be other things in the safe besides the child's body?" "Of course." Speaking of this, Gryphon's eyes lit up, "It is said that there are gems worth more than 100 million yuan!" Falcon took a deep breath: "100 million? That's so much! Then the CEO never used any method to open the safe?"

"I thought about it. They found a cutting factory and originally planned to cut the safe, but they gave up the idea considering that the child would be brutally dismembered. The safe was used as a coffin, and the jewelry was buried with it. Just buried like this In the cemetery." Falcon opened his mouth wide, as if he was dumbfounded.After a while, he asked, "Master, is this reliable?" Griffin glared at him: "Of course it's reliable. Do you doubt my ability to judge?" Falcon scratched his head: "Don't dare...just, how did you judge the authenticity of this matter?

Gryphon said: "The bird friend told me that this incident was told by his friend—an old worker in the cutting factory. And that old worker experienced this incident himself." Having said that, Gryphon stood up, with his hands behind his back, and while pacing the house, he said: "Besides, in order to verify whether this matter is true, I have already gone to investigate this afternoon." "Did you go to the cutting factory to ask the old worker for verification?" The Lion-headed Eagle laughed loudly: "You, after all, you are still young - if you do this, then if you track it down later, won't it - you will find me right away?"

Falcon blushed: "Then... Master, what do you mean by investigation?" Gryphon stopped and looked at him: "I guess, if someone in this kind of rich family dies, he will definitely choose the largest and best cemetery in the city. So I went to Shuanglong Cemetery in the afternoon - of course, I I bought a bouquet of flowers, pretending to mourn my relatives. I observed carefully there all afternoon, and found that there was indeed a clue.” Falcon opened his eyes wide, looking interested. Gryphon went on to say: "I found out that there is an old man who looks at the cemetery. Every hour, he will go around the cemetery in the northwest. His regularity is very strong, almost like a clock. Time will turn around. And in the whole cemetery, he doesn't care about other places at all, he only pays attention to the one in the northwest—think about it, why is that?"

Falcon understood: "The young master's tomb is buried in the northwest. And obviously, someone paid for the old man to visit the tomb—the purpose is to prevent the tomb from being stolen." "Yes!" Gryphon stretched out a finger, "But they overlooked one point. The more strict precautions they take, the more suspicious they will be. The behavior of the old man watching the tomb is tantamount to telling us that the tomb exact location!" "Master, do you already know which tomb it is?" Falcon asked happily. Gryphon smiled slyly: "Of course, I took a closer look at the tombs in the northwest when the old man wasn't on tour. I found that within that range, there was only one tomb that was special— —I'm almost sure that's where the 'Safe Coffin' is!"

"What's so special about that tomb?" Gryphon's eyes flickered: "There is a very new tombstone. There is no name of the deceased or family members on it. There is only a eulogy engraved on it, and it looks like it was written for a child. If it's not here, where else?" Falcon said in admiration: "Master, you are so powerful! In just one day, you have figured out the bottom line." Gryphon smiled with a bit of complacency. Falcon thought of something again at this time, and asked: "Master, last time I heard you say that you want to do something big in the end, and then stop doing it from now on. So, this tomb robbery is your finale." work?"

Griffon raised an eyebrow and said, "Boy, don't be so ignorant. What kind of tomb robbery is this? It's not an ancient imperial tomb. It can only be regarded as treasure robbery." Falcon said with some confusion: "Master, then I don't understand. If your goal is only the gems in the safe in the cemetery, we can choose a jewelry store to start, and the harvest will not be less than this trip, right? " Lion Head laughed a few times and said, "You don't understand that." Falcon said respectfully, "Master please teach me." Gryphon stopped laughing and said solemnly: "People in every industry have their own pursuits. Your master has never seen or experienced anything in this industry? What is an ordinary jewelry store? But from Stealing the safe from the cemetery and taking out the treasure inside is a new thing. I will stop doing it in the future, and it will be an anecdote to tell my disciples and grandchildren about it. It can be considered as a rich and colorful career for me as a thief."

Falcon nodded repeatedly. "I'll also tell you that every line has its own rules." Gryphon continued to teach his disciples, "Take what we plan to do as an example. The tomb watcher is actually a dry old man with no equipment. What a powerful weapon. Not to mention the two of us, even me alone, it is easy to overthrow him. But boy, remember, we are thieves, not robbers, we can only steal, not rob. If we are If you find out, you knock people unconscious and kill them. What kind of skill is that? That's something only third-rate people can do. Your master, I have been stealing all my life, and I haven't been caught once, let alone attacked anyone. The last one Tickets, you can’t lose them at the end of the festival. Kid, do you understand?” "Understood." Falcon nodded, and complimented without losing the opportunity: "Master's stealing is no longer purely for money, it is a kind of self-realization, which is admirable." Unexpectedly, Griffin dismissed Falcon's flattery, and sighed: "Don't say it so nicely. A thief is a thief, and he always does dirty things. It's not a professor, a scholar, or self-realization. It's just a good job. Be pretty. I'll be able to boast about it in the future." Falcon's brains turned quickly, and he immediately said: "In short, Master attaches great importance to this last transaction, that's right." Gryphon nodded and said, "That's a bit of a point. Then let's discuss the detailed plan now." Falcon said, "Master must have already figured out a plan." Gryphon smiled slightly: "You are clever. Then I will say it directly. This time the treasure robbery is very challenging. I calculated it, from removing the tombstone, digging out the safe, and taking out the jewelry—— —The total time should be controlled within half an hour.” "Half an hour? Master, didn't you say that the old man who watched the tomb only visited every hour? We should have an hour." Gryphon shook his head and said: "That was when nothing happened, he came out every hour, but I observed carefully this afternoon, where the old man who watched the tomb lived, he could see the cemetery in the northwest from the window .Even if we are acting in the dark, it is difficult to ensure that we will not be seen by him. Besides, in the middle of the night, everything is silent. If he hears movement, that's a bad thing." Falcon felt the difficulty of this matter and asked, "What should I do then?" Griffon said: "I thought of a way. Let's buy a small tape recorder, record some random sounds, and put this tape recorder in the southeast direction, which is the opposite direction from where we work, and a little farther away from the old man." Son. When the tape recorder sounds, the old man will definitely be attracted by the sound, arouse his vigilance and go out to watch. In this way, on the one hand, he can be lured away; The sound of the tomb. We just need to put the tape recorder in a hidden place, and it will take at least ten minutes for the old man to find it. Then, it will take him another ten minutes to walk back—in this case, It can buy us nearly half an hour." "Tune the tiger away from the mountain. Wonderful, Master!" "Do you think this plan is feasible?" Gryphon asked cautiously. Falcon thought about it seriously: "Is the tombstone so easily removed?" "No problem. I saw—they probably used ordinary marble tombstones in order not to attract attention, and they were placed directly above the tomb. The two of us can move it together." "Then it was digging the grave with the shovel and digging out the safe." "Yes, if you hurry up, twenty minutes is enough." The Gryphon stared into the falcon's eyes, and it's up to you for the next step. " Falcon nodded slightly.He knew it was his job to open the electronic safe. "How about it, can it be finished within half an hour?" Gryphon asked again. Falcon thought carefully for a while, and said to his master, "If there are no accidents, there should be no problem." "Then it's settled." Gryphon made a decision, "We'll make preparations tomorrow and act the night after tomorrow."
