I can't find system pin for my locked macbook

I locked my Macbook, I can't find an option now to unlock it

I never had to use/set a passcode to lock it with Find My Mac

I signed in to icloud.com/find on my PC. Selected that device in the Devices menu.

But there no UNLOCK option.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.14

You are supposed to enter the passcode you used to lock it in the first place.

As you will find in this article, you will only be able to look up this passcode for a limited time. After that, you will need to visit your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider to get it unlocked. In either case, you will need to provide the service representative with a copy of your proof of purchase.
