After a while, Matthew and the others had discovered the basic situation of the underground secret room.
The depth of this underground secret room is about three meters, and the internal height is two and a half meters. Ordinary people can fully stand in it.
The secret room covers an area of about 20 square meters, roughly equivalent to an ordinary bedroom, and has two pillars inside.
What exactly is hidden inside is currently unknown.
The entrance to the secret passage is located under the museum shelf with a large number of Japanese antique porcelain.
For the sake of protecting antique porcelain, the Tokyo police who searched here before did not remove the Japanese porcelain and move the museum shelf, so the entrance to the secret passage was not found.
The Tokyo police did not move anything in the vault, they just put a few seals on it.
Even if they remove the museum shelf, they may not be able to find the entrance to the secret passage.
After determining the location of the entrance to the secret passage, Xiao Ran immediately issued the order.
"Guys, let's work together to remove all the porcelain from the museum shelves and move them outside the vault. We will sort through them one by one and pack them into boxes later!"
"Be careful when moving. Some of these Japanese antique porcelain are valuable. Don't break them!"
"After moving these Japanese porcelains, let's move this museum shelf and see how to enter the underground secret room."
Before he finished speaking, Matthew and the others responded in unison:
"Okay, Sean, we'll be careful!"
After saying that, these guys took action and began to move the Japanese porcelain on the museum shelves.
Chantani Mami and the others, whose eyes were red with regret, adjusted their emotions slightly and joined in.
Xu Lin and Wang Jue also wanted to help, but Xiao Ran refused.
They have no experience in handling antique art, especially fragile porcelain, so if you ask them to help, they will probably become more and more helpful!
Faced with this result, the two beauties could only pout, then stand aside and watch.
Soon, all the Japanese porcelain on the museum shelves was moved out without any incident!
Xiao Ran stepped forward to check the museum shelf, then asked Matthew to get a hand-held electric saw and started violently dismantling it.
To him, this Japanese-style museum shelf has no value, and he won’t feel any distress when it is dismantled, and it won’t get in the way!
With the piercing noise of the electric saw, the museum shelf was quickly cut into sections and then all moved out of the vault!
The ground under the museum shelf then appeared in front of everyone.
After Matthew and the others finished cleaning the ground, Xiao Ran immediately stepped forward and began to check the situation on the ground and walls.
In a moment, he discovered the clues and said excitedly:
"The detection results are correct. The entrance to this underground secret room is under this steel plate."
"If you look carefully, you will find that there is a hair-thin gap at the seams around this steel plate, which is difficult to find!"
"At first glance, these gaps look like welds, with irregular directions. In fact, they are not. This is a deliberate illusion to confuse people's eyes."
As he spoke, he pointed to a square steel plate on the ground and the gaps around the steel plate.
Under his guidance, Qian Guzhenmei and the others quickly discovered the problem and nodded.
"Yes, although these gaps are irregular, they are connected together. It is obviously intentional."
"It's just that they are very hidden and extremely difficult to be discovered!"
Xiao Ran nodded and continued to introduce the situation.
"According to my observation, there are no traps around this secret door."
"Actually, this is inside the vault. It's very safe. There's no need to set up traps!"
"It's not difficult to open this secret door. You just need to press down on the steel plate, and the stuck bamboo shoots below will pop open."
"Then push this steel plate out of the ground, and you can reach out and lift it!"
That being said, he didn't immediately try to open the steel trapdoor.
Qian Guzhenmei and the others knelt down, looked at the steel plate for a moment, and then nodded in unison.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran adopted the same strategy as before.
Let everyone in the vault exit and stay outside to wait for the results for safety!
He himself was holding a heavy police shield, preparing to open the entrance to the secret passage alone.
In a blink of an eye, everything was ready.
Xiao Ran pretended to carefully observe the situation at the entrance to the secret passage and its surroundings, then picked up a heavy police shield and blocked it in front of him.
Then, he stepped directly on the steel plate and stepped down hard.
"Click!"
There was a sudden crisp sound under the steel plate, which sounded like the sound of a stuck bamboo shoot popping open.
At the same time, Xiao Ran quickly raised his right foot.
The next moment, one end of the seemingly thick and unusually heavy steel plate suddenly pried upward, tilting up by about five centimeters.
Other than that, nothing happened at the scene, and no traps were triggered!
Seeing this scene, everyone was very excited, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed a lot.
After making sure it was safe, Xiao Ran squatted down and looked at the raised steel plate.
On the edge of the raised side of the steel plate, there are two very hidden grooves, each of which can fit four fingers!
Obviously, this is to make it easier to lift the steel plate.
Xiao Ran observed for a moment, then put the heavy police shield aside, then reached into the two grooves and began to use force to lift the steel plate upwards.
Without much effort, he had lifted the steel plate.
What then appeared in front of him was a square hole with a length and width of seventy centimeters each.
Inside the cave entrance is a set of steel mechanical transmission devices with bamboo shoots and other things on them, which are used to control the switch of the secret passage entrance.
In the middle of the cave entrance, there is a secret passage sixty centimeters long and sixty centimeters wide, leading straight down to the depths of the underground.
The secret passage is surrounded by reinforced concrete, which is very solid. Ladders are nailed to the walls and lighting fixtures are arranged!
Standing at the entrance of the secret passage, you can see the situation at the bottom of the secret passage at a glance.
Looking from above, you can see a door, and behind the door is the underground secret room.
As for what happened in the secret room, it is currently unknown.
Xiao Ran checked the situation in the secret passage, then smiled and said:
"Everyone can come in. There is no danger in this underground secret passage."
Before he finished speaking, Qian Guzhenmei and the others hurriedly walked in, followed by David, Matthew and the others.
In a matter of three or two steps, everyone had arrived at the entrance of the secret passage, and they all looked down.
Immediately afterwards, there was an exclamation of exclamation from the scene.
"Wow! Who would have thought that there is actually a secret passage leading deep underground? It's incredible!"
"I don't know what treasure is hidden in the secret room at the end of the secret passage, but it must be very precious and valuable!"
"It can be seen that the Tokyo branch of the Kobe Yamaguchi-gumi spent a lot of money and a lot of time in building this secret underground tunnel!"
Everyone was amazed and talking excitedly.
At the same time, Qian Guzhenmei and the others were also full of dissatisfaction and regret.
But they can't change anything and can only accept this painful reality.
After observing for a moment, Zenitani Mami suddenly said:
"Mr. Sean, if there are no traps in this secret passage, can we go down and explore it now?"
"Everyone wants to know what secrets are hidden deep in this secret underground passage?"
Following his words, everyone looked at Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran nodded slightly and gave a positive answer.
"According to my visual inspection, there are indeed no traps in this underground secret passage, and there is no need to set up traps. You can enter it with confidence!"
"However, to enter this underground secret passage to explore, some preparations need to be made, such as necessary safety measures and so on!"
"Don't worry, everyone, we will start preparations now, and we will soon be able to enter the secret passage and start exploring!"
Before he finished speaking, Hasegawa suddenly interrupted.
"Mr. Sean, can you also let us enter this underground secret room to see what's going on inside?"
Xiao Ran looked at this guy and nodded.
"Of course it's no problem, Director Hasegawa, but we have to wait until we find out the situation and make sure it's safe!"
"Because the secret passage is relatively narrow and the space inside the secret is limited, there cannot be too many people going down at one time, no more than four people at most!"
"This underground chamber may contain the biggest secret of the Kobe Yamaguchi-gumi Tokyo branch. Everyone must be careful!"
Hearing this, several Japanese people suddenly beamed with joy.
"Great, Mr. Sean, we accept your arrangement!"
Xiao Ran nodded and picked up the walkie-talkie.
The next moment, he said through the intercom:
"Anthony, are the guys from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Division gone?"
As soon as the words fell, Anthony's voice came from the intercom.
"Copy that, Sean, those guys have finished collecting evidence, packed up all the guns and ammunition they just found, and are getting ready to leave immediately!"
Xiao Ran nodded and immediately issued the order.
"Okay, after those Tokyo police leave, you immediately seal off the Yamamoto antique store!"
"For the next time, no one is allowed to enter this antique store without my permission!"
"Tell the guys outside to be vigilant and protect the convoy, especially the two bulletproof SUVs containing antique artworks."
"Understood, Sean, I will notify all the guys to be on guard!"
Anthony responded immediately.
After a few more instructions, Xiao Ran ended the call.
Then, he looked at Matthew and the others.
"Matthew, you start setting up security measures to ensure the safety of people entering the secret passage."
"When tying the safety rope, be sure to avoid these antique artworks in the vault to avoid accidents!"
"In addition, we must prepare protective equipment, lighting and other equipment."
Before he finished speaking, Matthew and the others nodded in response:
"No problem, Sean, leave these things to us and we'll get them done soon!"
After that, these guys got busy.
Seeing this scene for the first time, Qian Guzhenmei and the others were all amazed by it.
Xu Lin and Wang Jue, who were both at the scene, were even more excited.
If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Ran prohibited them from filming with their mobile phones for the sake of confidentiality, they would have taken out their mobile phones and started a live broadcast here!
Three to five minutes later, Anthony gave the news.
The police officers from the Criminal Division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department have left the Yamamoto Antique Shop with a large number of guns and ammunition that they found earlier!
After a few more minutes, Matthew and the others also set up security measures.
Xiao Ran checked it carefully and made sure there was no problem, then gave instructions for the next step.
"Guys, you can enter the secret passage to explore!"
"Matthew, tie up your safety rope and enter the secret passage first. You must obey the instructions."
"I will use the video you took to direct you to take action!"
At this time, Matthew couldn't wait.
"That's great! Don't worry, Sean, I will never make my own decisions. I will definitely listen to your command!"
With that said, the guy took the safety rope and lock and got busy.
