Chapter 208 - Chapter 208: Chapter 168: Just Come Back to the Police Station with Me and Confess Everything! (5000 Words Mega Chapter) (2/2)
He looked down at the handheld stone cutting machine in his hands, his gaze somewhat vacant, recalling that he had always used this machine to cut open stone gates.
Back then he thought holding a cutting machine was very cool.
But now, seeing Lin Chuan effortlessly open the stone gate with just his fingers, he suddenly felt that he had been rather foolish in the past.
This ‘Double Finger Probe’ was quite cool!
For a moment, he developed a strong interest in the technique Lin Chuan had used.
Double Finger Probe was much cooler than a stone cutting machine.
He thought back further.
On the surface, Lin Chuan had looked up at the mountain range, sniffed the soil, and then, pointing towards the ground, declared there was an ancient tomb below with such ease.
“That’s some slick show-off!” Old Lu suddenly felt envious.
Which man could resist the urge to show off effortlessly?
“Expert Lu, won’t you come in and take a look?”
In front of the stone gate, Lin Chuan looked at Old Lu, who was still in a daze, and asked.
“Look, look, coming right up.” Old Lu immediately put the stone cutting machine aside and then raised his right hand to carefully examine his own index and middle fingers.
Passing through the stone gate.
Old Lu glanced at the two small holes on the stone gate and wanted to reach in to feel around.
Clatter.
Lin Chuan grabbed his arm in a flash and asked, “Expert Lu, do you have a death wish?”
“Hasn’t the mechanism been already broken?” Old Lu asked in dazed confusion.
“We’ve only opened the door; the mechanisms inside are still active. You could accidentally trigger one.” Lin Chuan’s face darkened, thinking, what kind of expert is this?
Are tomb chamber mechanisms something one can just touch carelessly?
Or is he an ‘expert’ in theory only?
Old Lu snapped to his senses and grinned, “Brother Lin is right, absolutely right.”
“I’m going in,” Lin Chuan said.
“Brother Lin, just a moment,” Old Lu called out to Lin Chuan.
“What is it?” Lin Chuan turned around and asked.
“Could you teach me that ‘Double Finger Probe’? I want to learn it too,” Old Lu said earnestly and sincerely.
“Let me see your hands,” Lin Chuan said.
“Both hands?”
“Correct.”
Old Lu complied, raising both his hands in front of Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan looked at the archaeologist’s palms and fingers, then stretched out his own right hand to compare his index and middle fingers with Old Lu’s.
Obviously, Lin Chuan’s index and middle fingers were longer than Old Lu’s by a bit.
Lin Chuan shook his head and pointed at the handheld stone cutting machine, “Yours are too short, you’re better off sticking to the cutting machine.”
“Oh.”
Old Lu looked a bit embarrassed, decided to give up for now and went back to pick up the stone cutting machine, thinking it might be useful after all.
