Just when Ye Chen had just put away the shady box, the landline phone on his desk suddenly rang.
The two looked at each other.
Niu Ergou nodded and signaled Ye Chen to pick up the phone.
Although I don't know who the caller is, if I continue to let the phone ring, it may cause other unnecessary troubles.
Ye Chen turned to look at the landline phone on the desk and swallowed lightly.
Then he picked up the receiver and put it to his ear.
Before Ye Chen could speak, a rather impatient voice came from the receiver.
"too slow!"
"Do you know you are wasting my time like this?!"
"Anyway, hurry up and hide your things. These are important commodities. If you dare to lose them..."
The other party's words were full of threats.
"You don't need to explain anything more or call me back. I won't use this number again!"
"Anyway, that's it!"
After that, before Ye Chen could say a word, the other party hung up the phone to take care of himself.
Ye Chen held the microphone and looked confused.
What is the product?
Are you referring to the black wooden box? Or the weapons and guns used to kill everyone in the Black Panther Gang?
If it is the latter, then it can explain why a Yan family is able to acquire so many heavy firepower weapons.
This batch of arms did not belong to the Yan family from the beginning.
The Yan family is just a middleman used to avoid people's attention.
But since the Yan family is not the owner of this batch of arms, who was the original buyer of this batch of arms?
Ye Chen shook his head gently.
I don't understand. It would be nice if the person just now could reveal more clues.
He looked at the black bag hanging at his waist, which contained the black wooden box found on Yan Dou's desk.
If this thing is one of many commodities, why is this thing the only one that has to be placed in the most conspicuous place?
Moreover, Gu Liancheng had already said that there were many warheads at the burned underground casino.
They are all fired from different guns. It can be inferred that the arms held by the Yan family are enough to arm a reinforced company!
It is impossible to hide such a large number of weapons in this small room.
There is only one answer!
There is definitely a hidden compartment in this room that Yan Dou uses to hide things!
But the question is, how to open the secret compartment and what is the key...
Ye Chen pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.
Niu Ergou saw Ye Chen standing there and didn't understand, and suddenly became anxious.
He shouted to Ye Chen in a low voice.
"Hey! Ye Chen! What are you doing?! Didn't I tell you to find something quickly!"
"Can you hurry up and leave after looking for us?!"
"Don't forget, Da Zhuang is still being chased in the rain!"
"Ye Chen..."
"Ye Chen!"
However, facing Niu Ergou's shouts, Ye Chen didn't hear them at all.
At this moment, he is trying his best to bring himself into Yan Dou.
Logically speaking, if this black wooden box is genuine, its value is much higher than the batch of arms he hid.
But why did he take such a big risk to put the black wooden box on the desk?
Are you afraid that you will forget?!
What is the relationship between the black wooden box and this batch of arms?
Normally, no one else except Yan Dou should be able to enter this study.
Of course, except Yan Bei.
Since Yan Bei had his men attack the Black Panther Gang with arms without Yan Dou's knowledge, it means that Yan Dou did not carry the key to the secret grid with him.
Moreover, the key to the hidden compartment should be very obvious, and someone who knows the inside story should be able to find it at once.
For those who don't know, they probably won't be able to find the secret key even if they turn the study upside down.
Know the inside story...the inside story...
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in my mind.
Ye Chen raised his head suddenly, and then took out the black wooden box from the bag again.
If you don't know what this black wooden box is, I'm afraid you will just regard it as an ordinary ornament on Yan Dou's desk.
But precisely because Ye Chen knew what the black wooden box was, he focused on this thing from the beginning.
"Uncle Ergou! Look for any large oil paintings or vases in this room!"
Ye Chen looked at Niu Ergou and ordered.
"what?"
"You're addicted to stealing, aren't you?"
"Not only do you want the black wooden box, but you also want other people's collections?!"
Niu Ergou looked at Ye Chen with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"Don't worry about this and help me look for it!"
Ye Chen also knew that time was running out now, and it would not be too late to explain it to Niu Ergou after he found something.
"Weird..."
Niu Ergou looked at Ye Chen, his face full of confusion, but he still followed Ye Chen's words, turned around and started searching in the room.
Unfortunately, the two of them searched the whole room, but there was no place where they could hide the secret compartment.
"How come there isn't one?!"
Ye Chen frowned slightly.
Logically speaking, although the location of the hidden compartment would not be easily discovered.
But the difficulty should be the key itself.
"Although I am a wealthy person, I don't necessarily have to hang oil paintings in my study, right?"
Niu Ergou still seemed to think that Ye Chen wanted to take this opportunity to make more money from Yan Dou.
"Give up, there is nothing valuable in this room anymore."
"If you insist on saying it..."
Niu Ergou shined the flashlight at Ye Chen's feet.
"It means that the carpet you are stepping on is a high-end product and can be bought at a good price..."
"carpet?!"
Ye Chen raised his head and looked at Niu Ergou.
That’s right! Why does the hidden grid have to be on the wall?!
Judging from the scale of the ordnance, a better hiding place would be under the floor!
Ye Chen rushed forward and suddenly hugged Niu Ergou, saying happily.
"That's right! Why didn't I think of that!"
"Uncle Ergou! You are really a genius!"
After saying that, Ye Chen turned around, grabbed the carpet and lifted it up.
Sure enough, there was a square gap in the floor under the carpet that was blocked by a white foam padding.
After taking out the filling, a gap as big as the black wooden box in Ye Chen's hand appeared in front of Ye Chen and the other two.
There are subtle textures at the bottom of the notch and the remaining four sides.
I'm afraid this is the "keyhole" specially set up for the black wooden box by Yan Dou to hide the secret compartment.
"This...this is..."
When Niu Ergou saw the gap under Ye Chen clearly, he was also a little surprised.
A smile appeared on Ye Chen's lips, and then he gently pressed the black wooden box in his hand into the gap in the floor.
