He had just married a policewoman when he was diagnosed with criminal genius.

Ding Jianguo and the vice president stood there, watching Lao Zhou being escorted out by two police officers.

The deputy bank manager stared at him, his lips moved, but the voice seemed to be squeezed out from his throat: "What did you say?"

Old Zhou looked up, his face ashen: "Bank manager, our bank's vault... was broken into by that drill criminal."

The vice president's tone became distorted.

"How is that possible?"

"It's true." Old Zhou's voice trembled. "I saw it with my own eyes."

The vice president took a deep breath, his voice becoming a little more steadier, but still very strained: "Take me to see him."

Ding Jianguo followed behind them, walking quickly.

The corridor was dark. Emergency lights shone on the walls on both sides, casting a dim yellow light.

The sound of three people's footsteps echoed in the corridor, hurried and chaotic, like three people running away.

Walk to the end of the corridor and turn the last corner.

The three people stopped at the same time.

The vault door lay quietly on the ground.

The 2.8-ton steel door lay flat on the concrete ground like a giant corpse.

Broken concrete chunks still clung to the edges of the door, and broken anchor bolts and twisted metal fragments were scattered on the ground.

The doorway was open.

Cold air wafted out of the dark doorway in waves.

The safe door of the ICBC bank vault was thus left wide open in front of them.

The vice president stood at the door, seemingly rooted to the spot.

His mouth was open, and he couldn't close it.

His gaze moved from the door panel to the door frame, from the door frame to the gap in the wall, from the gap to the broken anchor bolt, and then from the anchor bolt back to the door panel.

He was like a malfunctioning machine, his gaze shifting back and forth between all the broken parts, unable to utter a single word.

Ding Jianguo stood at the entrance of the vault, his mind somewhat dazed.

Where did Lu Chen go?

How did Lu Chen manage to open the door to ICBC's C-level insured vault?

The intensity of this exercise is way too damn high!

He originally intended for Lu Chen to come to the rehearsal as a mere formality.

He thought that even if Lu Chen was very powerful, he would only cause them a little trouble.

But the result presented to them now is clearly not like that.

Ding Jianguo stared at the door lying on the ground, unsure of what to say.

This is a Class C vault door, made of 12mm steel plate, 300mm filler layer, 12 anchor bolts, and a time lock imported from the United States.

He had seen truly organized and premeditated robbers, and he had seen all sorts of bank robberies, but he had never seen anyone manage to do it in such a short time.

There was no cutting equipment, no blasting devices, and no teamwork.

They just removed the door like that.

He single-handedly pried open that door.

The sound of the ground shaking just now must have been from when the vault door collapsed.

The question is, how did Lu Chen manage to do that?

Ding Jianguo and the vice president stood side by side, remaining silent for a long time.

Then they all turned their heads at the same time, their eyes fixed on Lao Zhou.

Old Zhou just said he saw it with his own eyes.

"Tell me, how did he open the vault door?" Ding Jianguo asked hurriedly.

"I saw..."

Even Lao Zhou couldn't understand some of Lu Chen's actions.

Therefore, I could only give Ding Jianguo and the others a general overview.

But even this seemed incredible to the two of them.

The two exchanged a glance.

"You're saying that Lu Chen didn't choose to unlock the door, but instead opened the door frame of the vault first?"

"They opened our vault using only some chemical reagents and common tools like screwdrivers and jacks."

Old Zhou nodded.

After hearing this, the bank's vice president was completely stunned.

The door to their prized vault was opened in such an outrageous way.

The vault door itself was fine; the perpetrators broke into the door frame.

And it opened very easily.

In an instant, the vice president broke out in a cold sweat.

If this were a genuine robbery, their bank would be completely ruined.

Fortunately, this was just a drill.

There is still a chance to remedy the situation.

Moreover, he had to thank this "criminal" for helping their bank discover this hidden vulnerability.

At the same time, he no longer felt that the joint police-bank exercise was a pointless activity.

The reason I previously thought it was useless was...

That's because the 'thugs' who came to us were all too incompetent.

This fosters a mindset among them that criminals are easy to deal with.

Now we've encountered this lone robber who opened the bank vault door and seemingly escaped successfully.

The deputy bank manager only then realized that their bank had so many loopholes.

He has made up his mind to wait until this matter is over.

We must pay close attention to the details of security.

……

Ding Jianguo had a different idea from the vice president.

He originally thought he already thought highly of Lu Chen.

But now he realizes that perhaps he underestimated Lu Chen.

I thought Lu Chen could unlock the police handcuffs.

That was already his limit.

I never expected that the other party could even open the door to a bank vault.

This was only the result after giving Lu Chen a week to prepare.

If Lu Chen were given more time, could he also figure out how to unlock the gate to the national treasury?

I asked you to practice being a robber, and you actually opened the bank vault door for me.

At this point, even Ding Jianguo had to admit that Lu Chen's salary as a senior consultant was truly worthwhile.

I paid the money.

Lu Chen is really going all out for you!

How should this matter be resolved now?

Although it was in accordance with the requirements of the exercise.

Lu Chen's actions were not wrong.

But the result was that Lu Chen dismantled the door of the ICBC vault.

He was genuinely having a headache.

Lu Chen, who was a robber in the exercise, is currently missing.

If Lu Chen escapes, then this exercise will have failed.

They might be the first police officers to have a criminal escape during a drill.

Lu Chen really knows how to cause him trouble.

When he was in love, he truly loved Lu Chen.

But when he hates, he truly hates!

Ding Jianguo looked at the vice president with some embarrassment.

"Vice President Li, the vault door..."

It seemed they knew what Ding Jianguo was going to say.

Vice President Li quickly interrupted, "Director Ding, there's no need to say anything more."

"I don't blame you for damaging the doors to our bank vault."

The vice president paused for a moment and continued, "On the contrary, I should thank the 'criminal' who broke into our vault."

"After all, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have known that there was such a big loophole in the vault door of our ICBC bank."

"It's much better to find out under these circumstances than after the actual vault has been robbed."

"Therefore, we will bear the cost of repairing the vault door ourselves."

Ding Jianguo was taken aback.

I didn't expect him to think of this, which saves me the trouble of explaining.

Ding Jianguo grinned: "Fortunately, this is just a drill, and the bank won't lose anything."

At this moment, Old Zhou said weakly, "Bank manager, it seems that the 'criminal' took something from the vault when he left."
