Chapter 1588: Secret Room

“This should be the place.” Jiang Yue pointed at the wooden board.

Xue Yan nodded. He also felt that there should be something under this wooden board.

This wooden board could only be discovered when the shelf was moved away. Moving the shelf would make a noise. The shelf was adjacent to this wall, so the next door could hear it.

Since it was confirmed that it was under this piece of wood, then this piece of wood had to be moved. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan casually lifted it and moved it to the side.

Then, about ten centimeters inside, an iron plate was revealed. The iron plate had a lock on it. Only by opening the lock could the iron plate be pushed in.

“It should be one of these three keys.” As Jiang Yue spoke, she pressed the size of the lock and tried one of the two big keys first. If it didn’t open, she tried the other big key and it opened with a click.

He took off the lock and pushed the metal plate inside. Then, he pushed it down and saw a wooden ladder leading down somewhere. There was a secret room below and he could go down through this wooden ladder.

Whether it was opening the lock or the iron plate, all of them would make a noise. If the sound was not heard when the antique shelf and the wooden plate were removed, then the sound could be heard when the lock and the iron plate were opened. It was equivalent to having double insurance.

Knowing that Fan Jianxi was this cunning, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not surprised.

It was very dark below, so Xue Yan took a lamp in his hand. “I’ll go down first. There might be some kind of trap down there.” He couldn’t let Jiang Yue walk in front.

After saying that, Xue Yan took his first step. He went down step by step. On the bottom wall of the stairs, there was an oil lamp that could be lit. Xue Yan lit it up.

It was even brighter below.

It was quite an open space, and behind that, there was another iron door. This iron door was taller than a person’s, and there was a lock on it.

With the key, there was no need for them to break it open. Xue Yan naturally didn’t care about the lock. Instead, he raised his head and said to Jiang Yue, who was still standing at the wooden door, ” You can come down now.”

Only then did Jiang Yue come down.

Xue Yan stretched out both hands. If he could help Jiang Yue down, he would.

Jiang Yue did not say anything. She did not need his help at all. Even if she replied, it would be useless. Xue Yan would still want to take care of her. It was like this before she was pregnant, let alone now that she was pregnant.

The key was in Jiang Yue’s hand. Seeing that the lock was quite big, it should be the other big key. Jiang Yue used the other big key to open it.

Sure enough, with a click, the lock was unlocked.

Seeing that Jiang Yue had taken off the lock, Xue Yan pushed open this iron door that was even taller than him.

It was dark inside. However, the iron door was opened, and the light from outside the iron door spilled in, illuminating the scene inside. One could see that there were bookshelves inside, and there were things piled on the bookshelves. Among them, some things looked like documents. As for what exactly they were, it was impossible to see clearly. Therefore, Xue Yan went in first and lit the lights inside to check for traps.

There was a square table with a chair inside and on it a lamp.

Because it was lit, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could also see this secret room.

This secret room was about 20 to 30 square meters. Other than a table, a stool, and a lamp in the middle, there were bookshelves placed on the four walls.
