"Xiao Ran, I just checked. A lot of big things happened in 1705."

"In that year, Kangxi made his fifth southern tour, and King Joseph I of Hungary began to rule the Habsburg Dynasty."

"The later Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I was born that year"

"In the same year, Britain promulgated the Bill of Rights and invented the Newkmann air steam engine."

The man wandering outside said excitedly.

This guy moved very quickly and found out a lot of things in a blink of an eye.

Hearing this, Xiao Ran shook his head helplessly.

"Please! This is the United States. It was a British colony in 1705."

"Obviously, the numbers engraved here can only be related to the United Kingdom, or to the North American colonies at that time."

"As for Kangxi's Southern Tour and Leopold I, etc., it's obviously impossible to defeat them with eight poles."

"If you want to investigate, you should investigate what happened in the United Kingdom and the North American colonies, and you should connect several safety figures together and analyze them."

After saying that, he squatted down again and began to check the situation on the third step.

At the same time, there are many experts and scholars on the ground, as well as tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms.

Everyone racked their brains to think about the connection between these safety numbers.

After Xiao Ran's reminder, everyone added a prefix to these safety numbers, either 16 or 17, and then verified them one by one with the major events that occurred in the corresponding historical period.

Since everyone has a mobile phone, it is very convenient to check.

As long as you enter the corresponding year, you can instantly find out what major events happened in the corresponding historical period.

If we connect and analyze what happened in several years, we may be able to find the answer.

While Xiao Ran was observing the situation on the third step, people kept saying their guesses, and they were all extremely enthusiastic.

While he was talking, Xiao Ran had already reported the three numbers on the third step.

"Just like the previous two steps, the third step also has three numbers engraved on it."

"They are 40, 27, and 02 respectively. These three numbers seem to have nothing to do with each other."

"As before, everyone adds prefixes to these numbers and analyzes them in conjunction with the previously discovered chronological numbers."

As he spoke, he took the towel and gently wiped off the dust and moss on the steps.

Then he pretended to observe carefully, and then nodded slightly.

"The safety number on this step is 02, and there are deadly traps hidden under the other two stone slabs."

"If you combine the number 02 with the previous safety numbers and analyze them, you may find the secrets hidden behind these numbers."

"To add a little more fun, I can wait for everyone to find out the most likely answer before I step on the third step."

"To save time, I can only give you five minutes. I hope you can unlock this secret."

After hearing this, everyone suddenly became more excited.

Professor Baker and others who were staying on the ground all had their eyes shining.

Subsequently, everyone began to inquire and discuss, trying to decipher the secrets hidden behind these security numbers.

Xiao Ran stood on the third step, observing the situation in the corridor.

Behind him, Marvin and Cooper had reached the corner and stopped there.

When they came down, they also arranged wires and lighting fixtures in the corridor.

As the bright lights came on, the corridor suddenly became brighter. The darkness that had shrouded the corridor for more than two hundred years was completely dispelled in an instant!

In the following time, fans in the live broadcast room and experts and scholars on the ground gave some guessed answers one after another.

However, these answers are far-fetched and contradictory in many places.

To put it simply, the answer they guessed cannot reasonably connect the several safety numbers that have been discovered, and the explanation is far-fetched.

After thinking about it, Xiao Ran rejected these answers one by one.

At this moment, Elaine's voice suddenly came from the earphones, saying expectantly:

"Honey, I just connected these security numbers and analyzed them, and found something."

"But I think the historical period limit you gave is too narrow. Shouldn't it be expanded and pushed forward a century or two, for example, to the 16th century?"

"After expanding the historical period, I found that these safety numbers had some connections with Shakespeare, which created some associations."

"Could they be chronicles of Shakespeare's works? They are just artificially disrupted and scattered on the steps of this corridor."

"I studied drama creation and am very familiar with Shakespeare's works. I know the year they were written."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.

Then, he said excitedly:

"That seems to be the case, dear!"

"Tell me what you found. Maybe your guess is correct."

After the words fell, Elaine immediately began to introduce her guess.

"Let's talk about the first safe number discovered, 03, which should be 1603."

"In 1603, Shakespeare wrote Othello"

"The second safe number is 98, and in 1598, Shakespeare wrote Much Ado About Nothing and Henry V"

"The subsequent third safe number is 89, in 1589, when Shakespeare wrote his first work, The Comedy of Errors"

"The next fourth safe number is 05. In 1605, Shakespeare wrote the famous play, "King Lear""

"The number 02 on the third step corresponds to 1602, the year Shakespeare wrote "Weddings""

Just as Elaine was recounting her family treasures and speaking out her guesses, everyone who heard these words were dumbfounded.

Immediately afterwards, everyone's eyes flashed with surprise and shock.

Elaine's performance shocked many people present.

Even Xiao Ran was amazed by her performance.

After Elaine finished speaking, he immediately nodded excitedly and said:

"My dear, your guess is very reasonable. It is probably the secret hidden behind this series of security numbers."

"If this is the case, it is enough to show that the person who designed and built this underground building was most likely a former British aristocrat."

"More importantly, he is a fan of Shakespeare, so he uses the chronicle of Shakespeare's works as a security code for this corridor."

"In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, most British nobles were fans of Shakespeare and regarded him as their idol!"

Following Xiao Ran's words, the ground and several live broadcast rooms were filled with excitement.

"I'll go! Is it true? You actually used the chronicles of Shakespeare's works as a password. Who could have guessed this?"

"And the person who set the password also messed up the years and arranged them randomly. This is too difficult!"

Courageous said in amazement.

"Elaine is studying drama creation. If it were anyone else, they would never have thought of this!"

"If this conjecture is correct, this corridor alone can become a historical and cultural heritage in the United States."

Maomao, who couldn't sleep, continued.

Professor Baker and others at the scene looked at Elaine in shock.

After thinking for a moment, they all nodded in unison.

"Sean, I think Elaine is right. Only Shakespeare can perfectly connect these safety numbers!"

"Shakespeare is the greatest literary figure in British history and has countless admirers in Britain."

"It is entirely possible that the chronicle of his works could be used as a security code!"

Adrian said excitedly.

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ran's voice came again.

"I will continue to test whether Elaine's guess is correct. I believe I will find the answer soon!"

"If this is the case, it would be great."

“This safe password alone is also a password with great cultural connotations.”

Upon hearing this, Professor Baker and the others nodded, obviously feeling the same way.

The deputy mayor of Boston, who was also present, had his eyes shining with excitement.

He knew very well that if this conjecture was true, this underground tunnel with great cultural connotations would definitely become another famous scenery in Boston.

Especially for those literature lovers who love Shakespeare, this place will definitely become a check-in destination!

After a few more discussions, Xiao Ran picked up the heavy police shield and gently smashed it on the stone slab with 02 engraved on the third step.

In fact, as he said, there are no traps under the stone slab, it is very safe!

After confirming this, Xiao Ran immediately stepped out and went down to the third step.

Without any pause, he immediately began to explore the fourth step, as well as the walls and vaults on both sides.

On the fourth step, there are also three numbers.

They are 94, 35, and 62 respectively, and there is no apparent connection between them.

The first time she saw these three numbers, Elaine said excitedly:

"Honey, the safe number for this step is 94."

"In 1594, Shakespeare wrote his famous play, Romeo and Juliet"

"The other two numbers have nothing to do with Shakespeare."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but chuckle.

"My dear, let me check the condition of this step first and verify whether your guess is correct."

As he spoke, he gently wiped off the dust and moss clinging to the steps with a towel, and pretended to examine them carefully.

After a moment, he suddenly smiled and nodded and said:

"Your guess is correct, dear, 94 is indeed a safe number for this level."

"From this point of view, we should have found the safe password to pass through this corridor."

"This security code is the Chronicle of Shakespeare's works, only scrambled!"

Before she finished speaking, Elaine jumped three feet high in excitement and started cheering.

"Great! Honey, my guess was right!"

Others at the scene, as well as tens of thousands of fans in the live broadcast room, were also excited, and many people were cheering and celebrating.

At the same time, everyone was envious and jealous.

Not a family, don't enter the same door!

No wonder Xiao Ran and Yi Lian can get together. These two guys are rare geniuses and freaks, so they are attracted to each other!
