A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"Does anyone have a hair pin?" Emily turned to ask the girl in the room.

Katherine did not know what she wanted to do, but she removed a water drill hairpin from her hair and handed it to Emily without hesitation.

Emily shook her head and said,"Not this, I need a black U hairpin."

The hairpin Emily was looking for was one of the most commonly used hairpins. Soon, another girl handed her several pins. "You... What on earth do you want to do?" she asked.

"Thank you," replied Emily. She took the hairpin and answered,"I want to try and see if I can open that lock."

All of a sudden, the eyes of every girl lit up with a glimmer of hope. They had never thought of it before. They only whined and grumbled, instead of thinking of a way to escape. 'What if we succeeded?' everyone was thrilled by the very idea.

They really wanted to escape. After all, nobody wanted to end up as some rich old man's plaything...

Penny who had teased Emily just now, looked at Emily's attempt to open the lock with a hairpin, and said, in a disdainful tone,"Hmph, do you think you are Macgyver? If these locks could be opened so easily..."

Before she had time to finish, she heard a "click". To her surprise, it was the clicking sound of the lock opening in Emily's palm.

Penny was at a loss for words.

The rest of girls in the warehouse followed suit.

After the dead silence, a cheer of joy burst out in the warehouse,"She's opened it!" Emily really unlocked it!

For a few seconds, Emily was in a daze. In truth, she didn't expect to the open the lock so easily.

Coincidentally, Jacob was the one who had taught her how to unlock padlocks with a hairpin just to kill time and boredom. Little did she think that it would come into great use one day.
