"Chieftain, these are the three types of handcuffs I made according to your requirements. They have the same structure and look nearly identical. The only differences are their thickness and the thickness of the Iron Chain. The heaviest weighs exactly one jin, the middle one weighs eight liang, and the lightest weighs six and a half liang. There's no difference in any other aspect. I'm just not sure about their durability, so I'll leave the final decision to you, Chieftain."
In Luo Chong's study, Ishida placed the three newly forged handcuff samples on Luo Chong's desk and asked him to inspect them and decide on the final design.
"Hmm, they look pretty good. The iron rings turn quite smoothly, too. Come on, let's go outside and find someone to test them first." Luo Chong picked up the three pairs of handcuffs with satisfaction and brought Ishida out into the courtyard.
"Three men, come here." Once they reached the courtyard, Luo Chong immediately called out to the guards stationed at the entrance.

"Huh?!" The guards wore blank expressions, completely unable to understand what Luo Chong meant.
"What are you 'huh'-ing about? Stretch out both your hands. Hurry!"
"Oh."

With a rasping clatter of gears grinding together, one of the guards immediately found one wrist enclosed in a Handcuff. Before he could react, the same thing snapped around his other wrist as well.
"Ah, this..."
