Koohii Story 1 Even if you lock up your GOLD, a DETERMINED thief will get it in the end.
Koohii Story 2 The best stories for this kanji tend to have a thief in them, which always makes me confuse them with the kanji for burglar (357). So, let´s try this one: My girlfriend wears a metal chastity belt with a lock but I am determined to open it! I must get inside!
