I am a super cop

The ancient camphor tree is well preserved and surrounded by iron guardrails, but the bottom of the camphor tree is covered with various weeds.

The white-haired old man walked around the camphor tree three times clockwise, then returned to the front of the camphor tree, bowed three times to the camphor tree, and muttered something similar to a mantra in his mouth.

Everyone was confused when they saw this, and they didn't know what the old man meant by this operation.

But it can be seen that the old man is performing a ceremony on the camphor tree to show his respect for the camphor tree.

After some manipulation, the old man finally came to Gu Chen.

"How?" Gu Chen asked.

"That's enough." The white-haired old man sighed softly, as if the operation just now made him appear extremely cautious.

Lu Weiwei took a step forward and asked, "Uncle, what are you doing?"

"Harmful." Turning to glance at Lu Weiwei, the white-haired old man waved his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said slowly:
"This old camphor tree has been on our land for hundreds of years. I buried things here just to get the blessing of the old camphor tree."

With a sigh, the white-haired old man walked to the guardrail and prepared to browse the guardrail.

Officer Wang wanted to go up and give him a hand, but the white-haired old man took the first step. His movements were so light that Officer Wang was shocked and said in his heart, "Fuck!"

"Do you need tools?" Gu Chen took out the mechanical baton he carried with him and prepared to hand it to the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man didn’t say much?He took Gu Chen's baton and started searching directly:
"Since the old man buried the things, he can still accurately capture the location."

After pausing with the mechanical baton, the white-haired man said: "This is it."

"I'm here to help." Lu Weiwei crossed the guardrail and came directly to the old man.

Then Gu Chen, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha also gathered around them.

After a while, a black package appeared in front of the uncle.

"Is this it?" Gu Chen asked.

"Well, I used moisture-proof materials." After saying this, the uncle moved the package out and began to dismantle it on site.

After a while, everyone quickly discovered an exquisite wooden box.

What surprised everyone even more was that this wooden box was very similar to the wooden box placed on the second floor of the store.

Lu Weiwei asked curiously: "Uncle, what are you doing? Two identical wooden boxes?"

"Because there are two wooden boxes at home." The uncle's answer left Lu Weiwei speechless for a moment.

"Ok."

After patting the dust on the wooden box, Lu Weiwei, wearing white gloves, slowly opened the wooden box.

When everyone saw the eagle totem button in the wooden box, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Officer Wang quickly took it in his hand, looked at it carefully, and muttered: "Not to mention, this button is much more delicate than the previous ones."

"Although those buttons before were exquisite, if they were placed here, compared with this button, they would be completely different."

"Isn't it?" Yuan Shasha took the button from Officer Wang, glanced at it casually, handed the button to Gu Chen aside and said:
"Senior Brother Gu, look at this button. Does it need to be disassembled?"

"Take it to the technical department of the city bureau to handle it," Gu Chen said.

"Okay." Yuan Shasha nodded silently, quickly took out the transparent evidence bag from her body, and fastened the buttons of the eagle totem.

Afterwards, everyone climbed over the guardrail, boarded the vehicle, and sent the white-haired old man home first.

After that, everyone drove directly to the Technical Section of the Municipal Bureau.

When he arrived at the testing room of the technical department as soon as possible, Gao Chuanfeng had already received a call in advance and was standing at the door waiting for a long time.

Seeing Gu Chen walking quickly, Gao Chuanfeng greeted him with a smile: "Gu Chen, I heard you got a good thing?"

"Look at this." Gu Chen took out the transparent evidence collection bag and showed it in front of Gao Chuanfeng.

Gao Chuanfeng was stunned and looked confused: "That good thing you told me about? Is this it?"

"Well, what else?" Gu Chen asked back.

"Harmful!" Gao Chuanfeng said in disappointment as he took the transparent evidence collection bag from Gu Chen's hand:

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had too much expectations. What is this? A work of art?"

"Take a closer look." Gu Chen said.

Gao Chuanfeng continued to put the transparent evidence collection bag in front of him, thinking about it and said: "This thing seems to be quite exquisite."

"There will be a surprise when you open it," Lu Weiwei said.

"Okay, this requires a vivid anatomy lesson." After finishing his words, Gao Chuanfeng directly placed the button of the eagle totem on the examination table.

Then, a bag containing tools was unfolded, and various small and sophisticated tools were unfolded side by side.

Gu Chen and others quickly gathered around.

Gao Chuanfeng also rubbed his hands and started to put on white gloves, but he was stunned on the spot.

"What's going on? Take action." Officer Wang said.

"No, what's the difference between this and repairing a clock?" Gao Chuanfeng turned around and asked.

"Don't worry about this. Repairing a clock is similar to this. Just dismantle it and you're done." Officer Wang continued to urge.

"Okay, just be a watchmaker for once." Gao Chuanfeng rolled up his sleeves and said involuntarily:
"But, I can't find a place to start."

"Here." Before Gao Chuanfeng could finish speaking, Gu Chen pointed out an area in advance:
"This place is the starting point for this eagle totem button."

"How do you know?" Gao Chuanfeng was stunned and turned to look at Gu Chen.

"I have seen the drawings left by the person involved, and there are various disassembly screenshots in them." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and showed the photos of the drawings he had written in the draft of his notebook in Nie Ping's study.

With the reference in mind, Gao Chuanfeng suddenly had an epiphany and directly used a steel lead to press hard against the entrance.

In an instant, a precise part popped out.

Gao Chuanfeng's eyes lit up, he quickly took a pair of tweezers and pulled out the part instantly.

Afterwards, Gao Chuanfeng placed the parts on a white cardboard.

10 minutes passed.

15 minutes passed.

Half an hour passed.

……

As Gao Chuanfeng dismantled more and more structures, the sweat on Gao Chuanfeng's forehead began to leak out.

Putting a piece of gear structure on the whiteboard, Gao Chuanfeng took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh:

"This thing is really not something that ordinary people can play with."

Turning to look at Gu Chen, and then at the various parts placed on the white board and the numbers under the parts, Gao Chuanfeng asked:
"Gu Chen, by the way, what's the secret behind this button?"

"It's not clear yet, let's wait until you dismantle all the parts." Gu Chen reminded.

"Okay." Gao Chuanfeng sighed heavily and continued: "The last two parts are done."

When the parts fell, Gao Chuanfeng stood up slowly like a robot, then moved his neck and consciously walked aside to rest.

At this moment, various parts are already placed on the entire whiteboard.

Lu Weiwei picked up a magnifying glass, put it in front of her eyes and made a few gestures, then looked at Gu Chen beside her.

Gu Chen smiled slightly: "Senior Sister Lu, it's not good to use this, so let's use this."

"So big?" Lu Weiwei was stunned, quickly got the same magnifying glass as Gu Chen, and began to observe the parts.

But soon, Lu Weiwei made a shocking discovery: "Junior Brother Gu, look quickly."

"I saw it." Lu Weiwei was startled on one side, while Gu Chen calmly replied on the other side:

"Look at the number symbols."

"Weird." Lu Weiwei squinted her eyes and looked up at Gu Chen. "What did you see?" Gu Chen continued to ask while observing.

"Why are they all numbers? Each component has one or two numbers. What does this mean?"

"Maybe it's some kind of password?" Officer Wang, who couldn't bear the loneliness, also took a magnifying glass and put it in front of him to observe:
But after watching it for a few seconds, Officer Wang put down the magnifying glass, waved his hand and said, "This thing is really hard to see, it makes me dazzled."

"Senior Brother Wang, are you presbyopic?" Yuan Shasha grinned and took Officer Wang's magnifying glass.

Gu Chen reminded: "Senior Sister Lu, according to the part number, write all the corresponding numbers after the part number."

"Understood." With a sigh, Lu Weiwei began to pick up the parts in her hand and used a magnifying glass to observe the inner wall structure.

Not long after, Lu Weiwei wrote the number 32 behind the part numbered 7.

"There are a total of 72 large and small parts here. Please be careful not to get the serial numbers wrong. We are dismantling them in the order of the deconstruction drawings left by Nie Ping." Gu Chen said.

"Understood." After hearing Gu Chen's words, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha echoed in unison.

Afterwards, everyone began to fill in the corresponding numbers.

A number of numerical codes were quickly formed.

Like some small parts, the number is an odd number.

For slightly larger parts, it may be an even number.

Not long after, Officer Wang began to take out a notebook and began to record numerical symbols, while muttering:
"22 87 05 36..."

As the numbers increased, Officer Wang raised his head and looked at Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, are you recording the numbers according to the numbers?"

"That's right." Gu Chen turned his head and glanced at Officer Wang, and said slowly:

"Record according to the number, because when Nie Ping disassembled these parts, they were recorded with numbers."

"Got it." Taking a deep breath, Officer Wang continued writing the record.

When he was finished, Officer Wang handed the recording pen to Gu Chen and reminded him, "These numbers look like passwords?"

"Maybe it's some kind of password? Who knows?" Looking at the digital records on the notebook, Gu Chen looked at the disassembled parts again.

"What secret is hidden in this? What makes Nie Ping so frightened? What does he know? Also, what do these numbers engraved on the inner walls of the parts mean?"

Frowning, Gu Chen looked at the people around him.

Lu Weiwei immediately understood what Gu Chen meant and said quickly: "Junior Brother Gu, I feel that this blueprint may not have been thought up by Nie Ping himself based on the disassembly method."

"Sister Lu, what you mean is that this drawing has been referenced for a long time?" Gu Chen said.

"Yeah." Lu Weiwei nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and quickly added:

"First of all, it is difficult to understand the structure so clearly. Moreover, there is a sequence issue involved."

"Which piece to remove first? Which piece to remove next? Just like He Junchao, he didn't know where to start from the beginning."

"If you dismantle the wrong piece, it will look useless when the subsequent parts are disassembled."

After a pause, Lu Weiwei also sighed helplessly: "I really don't know what the guy who designed this kind of art was thinking in his head?"

"Perverted." Officer Wang added, also jokingly: "To be able to design such a perverted thing, I think this person must be an inventive genius."

"It's just that it's a bit of a waste of talent to use it on art. I feel that I should be able to design watches. It feels like they are in the same line."

"Come from the same origin?" After hearing what Officer Wang said, Gu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that before?"

"You...what are you thinking of?" Seeing Gu Chen's surprise, Officer Wang was also very curious.

Gu Chen quickly turned to look at everyone and explained:
"That is, the person who designed this eagle totem button may also be a clock designer, because many of the internal structures are really similar to clocks."

"Especially the sophistication of the structural components, which looks very extraordinary. If this inventor were to design clocks, I guess he would be a pretty good expert."

"Watch designer changed his career to make art? Haha, it's interesting?" While listening to the discussion of Gu Chen's team, He Junchao slumped on the seat beside him, crossed his legs and complained:
"Disassembling this kind of thing is more troublesome than dissecting a corpse. If you encounter this kind of thing again next time, you must use chicken legs to lay the foundation."

After a pause, He Junchao continued: "Of course, the two chicken legs this time are also indispensable."

"You are indispensable." Seeing that He Junchao was settling accounts openly again, Gu Chen glanced at Yuan Shasha beside him and reminded him: "Little Yuan."

"Ah?" Yuan Shasha was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and said quickly: "Oh oh oh, yes, I will order chicken drumsticks for Dr. Gao right away."

"Ahem, this makes sense." Seeing that his goal was achieved, Gao Chuanfeng felt happy.

It seems that apart from chicken legs, I have no higher pursuit of food.

On the other side, Gu Chen had already begun to think about the connection based on the arrangement of these numbers.

But after all, it is still difficult to guess the meaning.

"Junior Brother Gu, have a drink of water." On one side, Gu Chen was still thinking hard. On the other side, Lu Weiwei had already brought a cup of brewed tea and handed it to Gu Chen.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Lu." Taking the tea from Lu Weiwei, Gu Chen took a sip and then said:

"perhaps……"

"Maybe what?" Before Gu Chen could say anything, Lu Weiwei quickly asked with wide eyes.

"Forget it, maybe I don't know anything." Gu Chen shook his head helplessly while thinking.

"Okay, think about it slowly, there's no rush." ​​Lu Weiwei also knew that this kind of thing couldn't be rushed.

What everyone has now is Nie Ping's real relic, and the difference between the relic and those imitations lies in the structure of the inner wall of the relic and the hidden numbers.

But these simple figures alone are difficult to relate to the actual situation.

Gu Chen sighed quietly and continued: "There must be something missing here?"

"You mean...the things related to these numbers?" Lu Weiwei said.

"Yes." Gu Chen shook his right index finger and said involuntarily:

"Looking at the numbers alone, this is a simple combination of numbers, without much novelty."

"However, these numbers may represent some kind of password, but this kind of password requires some corresponding reference objects."

"But..." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Yuan Shasha quickly stepped forward and asked:

"But, Senior Brother Gu, all we have access to is Nie Ping's relic. Apart from this, there are no other objects. Where can we find reference objects?"

"No rush." ​​Gu Chen waved his hands and walked back and forth in front of everyone. He also crossed his arms and said thoughtfully:
"What if this relic made Nie Ping notice something? It seems that he realized that he might be involved in some kind of incident. Then, if we follow this clue and look for it, we should be able to gain something."

Looking up at everyone, Gu Chen continued:
"I remember that this relic of Nie Ping was bought in a trendy store in Shanghai."

"To be precise, Nie Ping and his ex-girlfriend Hu Shirley took a fancy to it together. Finally, Hu Shirley bought it for Nie Ping."

"What if the button of the eagle totem was not an independent existence from the beginning?"

"Uh..." Listening to Gu Chen's calm analysis, Lu Weiwei was stunned, but she quickly came to her senses:

"I understand, Junior Brother Gu, what you mean is that this thing is not an independent existence. If one is here with Nie Ping, then the other must be with Hu Shirley, right?"

"That's right." Seeing that Lu Weiwei had guessed what she meant, Gu Chen quickly said:

"Hu Shirley, why are you so motivated to come to Jiangnan City? Maybe she holds the items corresponding to the password in her hands."

"And the button of the eagle totem may not have been an independent existence from the beginning. Hu Shirley must also be a key part of it."

"Xueli Hu is still in Jiangnan City." Officer Wang shook his finger and said involuntarily:
"But, she is leaving at night. We can't let her go. What do we need to know from her?"

"Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong." After hearing what Officer Wang said, Lu Weiwei also twirled her fingers and said involuntarily:
"Fortunately, Junior Brother Gu has the foresight to arrange for Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong in advance to closely monitor Hu Shirley's whereabouts."

"Hu Xueli should still be under our control now."

"Bring Hu Shirley back." Gu Chen turned around and looked at everyone, and also hurriedly walked up the first few steps:
"Bring Hu Xueli back now, she should have many secrets there."

"I'll call Ding Liang right now." Upon hearing this, Lu Weiwei quickly took out her cell phone and started to contact him.

Not long after, Lu Weiwei hung up the phone, turned to look at everyone and said:
"Don't worry, Hu Shirley has everything under control. Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong are already preparing to take her back to Furong Branch. So do we have to go back quickly now?"

"Go back." Gu Chen snapped his fingers and said eloquently:
"If Hu Shirley can be told this time that there are other things on her end that can match these numbers, then maybe we can know the secret that Nie Ping hides."
