I Have Countless Ability Cards

Chapter 165 Small Office

In the afternoon, a residential address in Ximo Village.

The village head pointed to a dilapidated small house and said to Gu Fan.

"That is Sanmao's home, but the door has been locked for the past two years."

At this time, besides Gu Fan, Bai Ziyue, Li Wei and Huya were standing next to the village chief.

Gu Fan just casually glanced at the dilapidated small house, and his attention was attracted by a telephone pole next to the house.

On the utility poles, the wiring is intricate and twists and turns, and there are traces of various poor-quality repairs, which may cause a short circuit at any time.

The village head also noticed Gu Fan's gaze, and said with a little shame.

"Our village is relatively backward, and this kind of electric pole is also a helpless move."

Gu Fan glanced at the village chief and said.

"How do you calculate the electricity consumption in your household?"

The village chief answered quickly.

"Each house has a meter to calculate the electricity consumption every month."

Then, as if thinking of something, the village chief added.

"I count the electricity consumption every month. Sanmao's electricity meter has not been read for two years. His house should be really unoccupied in the past two years."

Gu Fan looked at the village chief in surprise.

It seems that the village chief has lived for decades, and his ability to observe words and emotions and think independently is quite strong, at least much better than a certain virus research expert.

The main purpose of Gu Fan looking at the utility pole is to know the electricity consumption of Sanmao's house.

Unexpectedly, before Gu Fan asked, the village chief answered by himself.

However, Sanmao's household electricity has been zero in the past two years, which does not completely mean that no one lives there.

Thinking of this, Gu Fan said respectfully to the village chief.

"Thank you, village chief, there may be danger here, so you should go back first."

Hearing Gu Fan's words, the village chief's expression changed, apparently startled by what Gu Fan said would be dangerous.

But immediately, he regained his senses.

"Okay, but..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Fan already knew what he meant.

"Don't worry, if I really find him at Sanmao's house, I won't hurt him."

Hearing Gu Fan's assurance, the village chief hesitated for a moment before slowly leaving.

Seeing the village chief leave, Gu Fan looked at Li Wei and Huya and said seriously.

"I don't know if he is hiding at home now, but just to be on the safe side, Xiaobai and I will enter the house later, and the two of you will stay outside. If you see anyone other than me and Xiaobai coming out, fire a shot to scare them." Hit him, don't hurt him."

"Yes!" Huya responded quickly after hearing the words.

Li Wei, on the other hand, looked disdainful.

"Don't pretend to be serious, just pretend."

Faced with Li Wei's ridicule, Gu Fan didn't bother to respond, and directly brought Bai Ziyue to the door of the house.

As the principal and the village head said, the door of Sanmao's house was closed, the locks on the door were badly embroidered, and the surrounding area was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Apparently, the gate had not been touched for a long time.

Bai Ziyue glanced at Gu Fan.

"Brother Fan, let's break the lock and go straight in?"

Gu Fan shook his head.

"No, if Sanmao is not at home now, when he comes back and finds that the lock has been smashed, he will definitely be vigilant."

As he spoke, Gu Fan waved at Bai Ziyue, motioning to follow.

Then, look around the house.

Soon, Gu Fan found a window on the side of the house.

That was the only way to enter the house other than the gate.

Because this direction is backlit, the light is particularly poor. Looking into the house through the window, only some shadows can be seen vaguely.

At this time, Gu Fan was close to the window and observed carefully.

The glass of the window is intact, locked from the inside, and there is a lot of dust attached to the surface.

At this time, Li Wei also came up.

"Let me just say you're putting on an act. There are only two entrances to the whole house, the gate and this window. The gate is locked and covered with dust. It must have been left untouched for a long time. And this window, also from It's locked inside and can't be opened from the outside."

"No one has ever been here, let alone lived here."

"Maybe your guess is wrong at all. Sanmao may really have left to work as he said. The reason for this incident is someone else."

Li Wei said so much, but Gu Fan didn't pay attention to him at all, and was still watching the window carefully.

Seeing this scene, Li Wei stomped her feet twice with an angry look on her face.

"I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"

"Oh, what are you doing? You pervert, it's disgusting!"

The reason why Li Wei exclaimed suddenly was that at this moment, Gu Fan checked the window for a long time, and suddenly moved to a corner of the window frame and smelled it.

Then, as if it wasn't enough, he stuck out his tongue and licked the window frame.

At this time, even Bai Ziyue became suspicious.

"Brother Fan, what's the matter?"

Gu Fan clicked his mouth twice, as if he was really tasting the window frame.

"A fishy smell! A very special fishy smell, definitely not from the window frame itself."

After saying this, Gu Fan suddenly thought of something, and quickly lowered his head, looking for it on the ground.

After a while, Gu Fan picked up a thin wire from the ground and folded it into the shape of a hook.

Afterwards, Gu Fan took a hook made of wire and stretched it in through the gap in the window frame.

However, towards the inside, he ticked several times in a row.

Seeing this scene, of course Li Wei didn't understand at all, she just thought that Gu Fan was crazy.

To be precise, when Gu Fan licked the window frame, she was thinking about whether to stay away from abnormal humans like Gu Fan.

But at this moment, Gu Fan's face beamed with joy.

"found it."

As he said that, the hook Gu Fan made just now hooked a small iron ball tied with a thin thread from behind the wall.

Gu Fan turned the iron wire in a hurry, so that the iron wire and the thin thread were completely entangled.

Then, slowly push hard.

With Gu Fan's force, the originally locked handle inside the window turned slowly.

With a bang, the window opened!

Seeing this scene, except for Gu Fan, everyone else was stunned.

At this time, Gu Fan had already opened the window and poked his head in.

After seeing everything clearly, Gu Fan made a slightly surprised "tsk tsk" sound.

Obviously, he appreciates everything in front of him.

"This Sanmao is not bad. He was able to think of designing such a small mechanism."

"Small office?" At this time, Bai Ziyue still didn't understand.

Gu Fan nodded, and opened the window completely, allowing Bai Ziyue to see the whole mechanism.

In fact, the key to locking the window lies on the handle.

At this time, two very thin fishing lines were wrapped around the handle.

One goes down, and a larger iron ball hangs below it. Gravity will make the whole handle automatically turn down and lock automatically.

The other one went upwards, using two pulleys to let the fishing line go from the inside of the window frame to the back of the wall, and then fixed a small iron ball.

As long as you look from the outside, no matter what angle you look at, you can't see the mechanisms installed inside.

Just pull hard on the fishing line behind the wall, and use the pulley to transmit the force, so that the handle can be turned to open the window.

The principle is very simple. When Bai Ziyue saw the whole device, he understood it instantly.

When Li Wei saw this scene, she still said arrogantly.

"Even if you found this mechanism, what does it represent?"

At this time, Gu Fan looked at Li Wei's expression as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Then tell me, what does this represent?"
