"Um... Miss An, we’ve already searched this secret room." Wang Song, the head of the City A Police Station, couldn’t help but remind An Yiqing as he watched her feeling around the walls of the secret room. He sighed internally, thinking that An Yiqing was just being stubborn. They had searched this secret room more than twenty tis, and if there was sothing here, they would have found it by now.
Despite his dissatisfaction, Wang Song kept it to himself, showing a posture of letting Miss An do as she pleased.
An Yiqing did not reply. She glanced indifferently at Wang Song and turned her head back to the secret room.
"This house is a standard layout, with each floor approximately three ters in height. Internally, the height should be between two and a half to two point eight ters. When I ca in earlier, I roughly asured it, and the height of this study should be about two point seven ters. This secret room, judging by the yellowing of the walls by Da Bai, looks to be several decades old. According to the information, this house was built twenty years ago, which ans that when Yu Guocai was renovating this house, this secret room was likely dug out at that ti. I’ve investigated so circumstances of when this villa area was built, and it was constructed entirely according to national standard dinsions and materials. Therefore, logically, the height of this secret room should be the sa as the study. But why is the ceiling of the secret room lower than the study?"
Everyone was confused by An Yiqing’s string of figures, except for Gu Yelin, whose face darkened as he strode into the secret room.
He looked up at the ceiling, then stepped out to look at the ceiling of the study.
Indeed, the ceiling of the secret room was much lower than that of the study!
This house was built twenty years ago, and back then, workers wouldn’t cut corners. Whether it was a warehouse or an attic, they were all built to standard heights. The normal floor height is about three ters, but the height of this secret room is really too low!
No wonder he always felt there was sothing off about this room.
At this point, not only did Gu Yelin realize it, but everyone else also ca to understand. They all crowded at the secret room’s door, looking back and forth at the ceiling.
"Miss An, according to your theory, is there sothing special about this ceiling?" Wang Song was still a bit skeptical. Maybe when Yu Guocai dug out the secret room, he just wanted to dig a smaller one? What Miss An is saying seems a bit far-fetched.
There was no way An Yiqing didn’t know what Wang Song was thinking. She glanced at him and said indifferently, "Whether there’s sothing special or not, we’ll know once we dig it open."
Upon hearing this, Tan Yulin imdiately rolled up his sleeves and waved his hand.
"Guys, let’s get to work!"
Following An Yiqing’s instructions, Tan Yulin and his team began dismantling the ceiling with special tools. The others stood outside the secret room, perplexed by the unconditional obedience of Hong Ci’s people. They were also half-convinced about An Yiqing’s hypothesis.
An Yiqing observed their expressions clearly, her red lips slightly curving into a playful smile. Yu Guocai was famous for being stingy, refusing to give even a penny. Even with his family, he was exacting, let alone with construction workers.
Digging three ters is still digging, and digging two ters is still digging. For soone stingy like Yu Guocai, he naturally wanted to save on three ters.
So, even without a Clairvoyant Eye, An Yiqing deduced that there was a problem with this ceiling!
Sure enough, half an hour later, Tan Yulin and his team found a hidden compartnt in the ceiling they had broken open!
"There should be sothing inside, search carefully," An Yiqing said calmly, then turned and sat down on a sofa in the study. Her expression, which revealed nothing of her emotions, made the already stunned mbers of the City A Police Station feel even more baffled.
When Tan Yulin pulled a black box out of the hidden compartnt, everyone was dumbfounded.
There really was a hidden compartnt! There really was an issue with the ceiling!
In shock, they looked at the black box, then at An Yiqing in disbelief, their gazes completely changed!
Gu Yelin took the black box, and upon opening it, a dark shadow passed over his black eyes.
Inside the box was a notebook, on which were so sketches resembling maps.
"This should be the map of the Tea Province Cultivation Base."
An Yiqing silently walked to Gu Yelin’s side, glanced at the notebook, and said softly.
Gu Yelin’s gaze turned cold as he looked at An Yiqing. "Reason?"
"Such a large structural frawork, it could either be a factory or a laboratory. The Yu Family doesn’t have any factory business, so it must be a cultivation base."
