Chapter 961 Secret Passage



"How is it? Did you find anything?"

Lin Han asked after seeing Xiaoxiang and Qin Xiangcao walking in from outside.

He just asked the two of them to go out and take a look around the warehouse, and come back to tell him if they found anything.

"No!"

"I don't have any here either."

Both of them shook their heads and sighed helplessly.

"So it really disappeared out of thin air?"

Qin Xiangcao looked around and at the ceiling and asked curiously.

To be honest, she didn't believe that such a weird thing would happen, but the facts were right in front of her, and it was difficult for her not to believe it!

After all, she couldn't find any reason to explain this situation. Just like those staff members, she could only explain it by disappearing out of thin air.

"We can rule out the possibility of employees committing crimes internally or stealing from their employees. After all, there are hundreds of security guards and staff responsible for supervision and entry and exit. This can only be done if all of them are bribed. But this is almost impossible."

Lin Han continued.

"So it is..."

"I don't think so!"

Before Qin Xiangcao could finish her words, Lin Han interrupted her.

"The security guards were waiting outside the warehouse, and after the staff had brought things in or taken them out for competitions, they had to wait until the competition was over before bringing things in again. So during the competition, there was no one guarding this room."

"But the exits are guarded. Even if you want to sneak in, you can't do it!"

Qin Xiangcao took a look at the person outside the door and asked in confusion.

"Unless they have another unknown entrance! They can steal those things without anyone noticing."

"An unknown entrance? Where is it? Is there any mechanism or secret passage nearby?" Xiaoxiang looked around in surprise and searched carefully.

"Yes! But the activation mechanism is not in this room, but in that passage. So no matter how hard we try here, we can't find it and can't open it."

Lin Han brought a bottle of water and walked to a corner. Before that, there was a lot of water on the ground and in other places as well.

It was obvious that this was not the first time Lin Han had done this here.

He just opened the bottle cap and poured all of Lin Han's water onto the ground. In just a moment, the water disappeared in some places.

No, it didn't disappear, it seeped into the soil, but the penetration speed was several times faster than other places, so it was as if it was absorbed by the earth or disappeared.

"It looks a bit like a drain! Is there a secret passage underneath?"

Xiaoxiang saw the problem at a glance and guessed that something was wrong.

Lin Han nodded slightly, "Yes! There is a secret passage underneath, so others can come in from here without anyone noticing, steal things, and leave silently. And the other party only needs to bribe one person to cover this place with soil again."

"So that means if we go out through this secret passage, we can follow the clues and find out who stole it?"

Qin Xiangcao held her chin and thought.

"It's a bit difficult. After all, no one would place the exit of the passage in their own home for others to investigate. It is probably leading to some deserted place, or a rented place, but at least it is a clue."

As soon as Lin Han finished speaking, someone came in with a shovel and a hoe. They began digging above the secret passage according to Lin Han's orders.

Sure enough, their tools soon hit something, making a sound of metal clashing.

This means there is metal underneath!

And they immediately dug up all the pornographic pictures above. Indeed, there was a secret door underneath, made of iron, but it could only be opened from the bottom.

But if it is a violent method, you can also do it from above, just like breaking into the door violently.

Those people used shovels to pry the gap hard, and soon the iron door was pried open.

As soon as they opened it, dust filled the air. When the dust settled, they could all see what was going on underneath.

It was a secret passage that could accommodate two people, and it was easy to use it to move those antiques and treasures.

Lin Han lay on the ground, stuck his head in, took a look inside the secret passage, and said:

"It seems that this secret passage is very long, and judging from the degree of decay of the wood reinforced around it, it must have been prepared for many years."

"Why is it such a coincidence? Why did they do it at this time? There have never been any accidents in the World Treasure Appraisal Competition before."

Qin Xiangcao was very puzzled. How could it be such a coincidence that something went wrong during this World Treasure Appraisal Competition?

“It’s not such a coincidence, but this is the first World Treasure Appraisal Competition. This passage cannot be built overnight.

When the World Treasure Appraisal Competition was held before, that person knew that this place was profitable, so he carefully planned this theft. "

Lin Han said.

According to what the other party said, if the things were not stolen in this World Treasure Appraising Competition, then it would be in the next one. In any case, there will always be a World Treasure Appraising Competition that will be affected.

"Now let's go and see where this secret passage leads to!"

After Lin Han finished speaking, he jumped directly into the passage. Xiaoxiang and Qin Xiangcao hesitated for a while and then jumped in as well.

After all, just as Lin Han said, if the prisoner was smart, he would have left long ago and would not have stayed in the passage or at the exit waiting for them.

So although this place is narrow and stuffy, making people worry and afraid, safety can be guaranteed.

Lin Han asked the staff to wait for his call and meet them directly at the exit. Then he took Qin Xiangcao and Xiaoxiang with him, and the three of them went forward together.

Walking through the passage with his head down, Lin Han saw a lot of shoe prints. Even the newest ones had many groups, and they were of different sizes, which meant that quite a few people came.

However, this was also within Lin Han's expectations. After all, there were a lot of things used in the competition. If one or two people only used the competition time to commit the crime, they would not be able to empty the entire warehouse.

After only five or six minutes of walking, Lin Han and his companions reached the exit. There was no way forward, but there was a wooden board above their heads that they could push open from the inside.

Lin Han pushed hard, but it bounced back immediately.

"There's something pressing against it. I guess the other party must have restored the bed or table when they left. Please help."

Lin Han gave Xiaoxiang and Qin Xiangcao a look, and they understood why Lin Han brought them together, which was for this situation.

The three of them placed their hands on the board and pushed together.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise from above, the sound of something falling to the ground, and they took the opportunity to open the entrance, but it still raised a cloud of dust.

The three of them covered their mouths and noses and crawled out of the passage.

Lin Han checked around and found that this was a room. Judging from the monotonous furnishings, it should be a rental house or something like that.
