Chapter 170: Uncovering the Secret of the Old Hospital 33
Under the dim light, Li Yuming held the key and stared nervously at the old lock. His heart was beating so hard that it seemed like it was about to burst out of his chest.
"Are you sure this is the correct key?" Zhang Cuifen beside Li Yuming asked nervously.
Li Yuming nodded. The key in his hand was the only clue his father had left. He had said that this old hospital was hiding a huge secret. Now, they were about to uncover it.
Zhang Cuifen took a breath, as if to encourage herself, and then said, "Then let's open it."
Li Yuming inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it. With a "click", the lock opened.
In front of them was an old wooden door covered with thick dust. Li Yuming pushed the door open and was greeted by a musty smell.
They entered a dimly lit room. The furnishings were old, yet they could see how luxurious it once was. Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen walked cautiously to the center of the room, where there was a huge desk.
Li Yuming walked forward and opened the desk drawer. His hands were shaking, and he didn't know what he would find.
In addition to some old documents, there was also an exquisite box in the drawer. Li Yuming opened the box and found a string of Buddhist beads and a cloth bag inside.
He took out the Buddhist beads and opened the cloth bag, revealing a map and a letter.
Li Yuming opened the letter. The handwriting on the letter was very familiar to him. It was his father's handwriting. The letter described in detail the history of the old hospital and how he discovered this secret.
There was a place marked on the map, an abandoned mine. Li Yuming knew that was where they were going next.
They left the old hospital and drove to the mine. On the way, Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen were both wondering what the secret was.
When they arrived at the mine, it was already dark. They entered the mine carefully with flashlights in hand.
The mine was filled with darkness and dampness, and Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen could hear the sound of dripping water and echoes echoing in the distance.
Following the instructions on the map, they walked through narrow passages one after another, and finally arrived in front of a huge cave.
The cave was full of darkness, but Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen could clearly see a huge box in the center of the cave.
They opened the box, which was full of gold coins and some ancient documents.
Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen were stunned. They knew they had discovered the secret. This old hospital had once been a Nazi laboratory, and their father was the only one who knew the location of this laboratory.
They took the gold coins and documents away and put the box back to its original place. They knew that this secret could not be made public, otherwise it would cause unrest in the country.
They left the mine and returned to the old hospital. Li Yuming put the map and letter back to their original places, and then they left the old hospital.
They knew that they had uncovered a huge secret, but they also knew that this secret would remain buried forever.
They left the old hospital and returned to their lives. Li Yuming and Zhang Cuifen both knew that their lives had changed forever and they would keep this secret forever.
And the old hospital still stands there, as if telling the story of the past.
