Chapter 4 [Pandora's Treasure Box]

Someone is here at this time?
He made an immediate decision!
Chen Dong immediately put back the removed electrical socket.

He quickly walked into the bathroom and turned on the faucet, pressed his head down to wet his hair, then wiped his hair with a towel and walked towards the door.

"Who?"

He opened the door while wiping his hair that was still dripping with water, and saw a man in an electrician's uniform outside who said, "Hello, excuse me, recently several residents said that the water bill is too high and the water meter is not accurate. , can I go in and have a look?"

"Oh, the one who reads the water meter, right?" Chen Dong replied with a smile, "Come in!"

The employee of the water company walked in with a smile, glanced around, and then asked as usual: "Is your water bill okay?"

"I don't know. I live alone and I don't pay attention to the water bill." Chen Dong replied honestly.

The employee of the water company took out a notepad from his work bag very familiarly, went into the bathroom to find the water meter without hesitation, then squatted down and began to record some data.

Chen Dong looked at all this with a smile on his face, and found out the hair dryer by himself.

He also deliberately plugged it into the socket that he had just dismantled to dry his hair.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous is also the safest.

Who would have guessed that this socket being used was hiding a secret?

About 2 minutes or so.

The employee of the water company came over politely and said, "Then you pay attention to this month's water bill, and if you have any questions, you can call us for consultation."

"Okay, then I won't give it away!" Chen Dong blew his head with the hair dryer and watched the other party leave.

It took less than 5 minutes from the other party entering the room to leaving, and the whole process seemed flawless.

But Chen Dong frowned forcefully.

He can be sure that the guy who came to the door just now has a problem, even if the other party's acting is very realistic and there are not many flaws.

When the other party was talking to him, his eyes were not aiming randomly.

But the problem was exposed when reading the water meter.

When there was water seepage on the top of the kitchen last year, Chen Dong went to take a look at the residents upstairs, only to find out that the toilet upstairs was leaking.

He discovered at that time that his home had been renovated before, and he had renovated the balcony, kitchen, and bathroom.

After the renovation, the water meter that should be on the balcony has been moved to the inside of the bathroom.

It is estimated that space and aesthetics were taken into consideration when decorating at that time.

This means that the location of the water meter in your home is different from that upstairs and downstairs.

But the other party did not go to the balcony to find the water meter, but walked into his bathroom to read the water meter without any mistakes.

What does this mean?
This shows that the other party has long been aware of the location of the water meter.

It was hard for him to believe that what happened today was a coincidence.

On the contrary, he thought someone was monitoring him behind the scenes.

Deliberately stealing your own medicine is just the first step!
And because they closed the windows and drew the curtains, those people could only enter the house pretending to be checking the water meter.

This person did not look around after entering the house, not to avoid showing flaws.

It is because the other party is not concerned about the things in the room at all, but himself.

I'm afraid I want to know how I will be after I stop the medicine.

Chen Dong's face darkened, he looked at the rustling branches outside the curtains, and a certain feeling in his heart became clearer.

It seems that the storm is coming.

To find out what is hidden behind, the first thing is to unlock all the codes in the house.

It took him half an hour to finally decipher the secret on the electric socket, which is also a set of pointing codes.

And the location corresponding to the code actually happened to be the tile behind the water meter in the bathroom.

His eyes seemed to see through everything, seeing directly through the tile what was behind it.

Behind the tiles, hidden mysteries!
He had no way of knowing what was behind it, maybe it was a string of codes, or maybe it was a box?
Chen Dong was more cautious this time.

He turned on the TV to the Yinyue station, and waited for more than ten minutes before deciding to do it.

He didn't know whether the person who read the water meter left or not, but he couldn't live in fear forever, he had to figure out the truth behind all this.

So Chen Dong took a flat-head screwdriver, aimed at a tile, and used a thicker book as a "hammer" to knock it down.

With a plop, the tiles were pried open.

The inside is hollow, and there are roughly four bricks left, and a red and black sandalwood box is placed inside.

Chen Dong held his breath. The sound he made just now was not loud, and it was blocked by the music outside. No one should know what he was doing inside.

He took out the box and took a deep breath.

This box has a sense of history, it seems to have been put in more than ten years ago, and there are spider silks around it.

A small combination lock was hung on the outside of the box, and many memories emerged in his mind, those dusty childhood memories flooded out.

There was a sudden sharp pain in his head, which made him almost unable to stand still.

He remembered that he had seen this box before.

At that time, my parents seemed to have had a fight because of this, and I was hiding in the room shivering, just in time to see this scene.

Looking at this box, he felt a little fear unconsciously. This box was like a Pandora's box.

There must be something important in the box.

Tick ​​tock.

The bathroom was eerily quiet, as if the outside sounds were blocked out.

Chen Dong knew that he had no other choice, he had to open this Pandora's box and uncover the dusty history.

At this moment, he began to suspect that there were other stories hidden behind the death of his parents in a car accident.

Low-risk depression is hereditary.

Even if no one has mentioned to him that one of his parents has this disease, but being able to design this series of codes is enough to prove that one of his father or mother may also have this disease.

Chen Dong took a deep breath, he had never thought about one thing so seriously, that is, what is the password of this box!
Who is this box for?
Who is that series of codes for?

If it is reserved for yourself, then only you must know the password.

Three numbers, only you know?
Chen Dong's brain was spinning fast. If the design method of the previous cipher code was followed, then the aids for cracking must be near this box.

He fixed his eyes on the water meter, and squatted down to look for the answer.

Sure enough, there is a serial number on this water meter. This serial number is a mix of Chinese and English numbers. If all the English is removed, then there are only three Arabic numbers left.

Chen Dong took a deep breath, his hands trembling uncontrollably, and finally selected the three numbers.

Click!
His pupils tightened slightly, and they were actually untied, exactly as he thought.

Unraveling this kind of code suddenly seems difficult.

Because if someone comes and steals the box, that person may never be able to untie it for the rest of his life.

Because that person never thought that the password was actually in the water meter next to him.

Although it is only a combination of three numbers, he infers that there must be a limit to errors, and it is impossible to try endlessly.

These three numbers are not related in any way.

Unless that person's observation ability is extremely subtle, or a low-risk depression patient like myself is very sensitive to the surrounding environment.

Thinking of this, Chen Dong vaguely understood that these code designs were all intentional.

The more sensitive people are, the easier it is to unravel.

In other words, this is a code designed specifically for people with low-risk depression.

Chen Dong swallowed, and slowly opened the lid of the box, only to see a yellowed diary lying inside, and a key next to it.

His eyes were fixed on the diary, choked as if he was suffocated.

Because he knows that the answers to many things are in it.
