Because the sky was getting darker at this time, the light in the warehouse was not very good.
After the three members of the commando team entered the warehouse, one of them ran to the main switch box of the warehouse's power supply, opened the box door, and closed the switch knife.
Then, the other two team members turned on the light switches in the warehouse hall and the adjacent corridor one by one. With the light shining on them, the warehouse was as bright as day.
Gan Qun didn't seem to be interested in the second floor of the warehouse. He focused on inspecting the locations where goods were stacked on the first floor and some rooms where critical supplies were placed.
These parts were inspected during the previous round of inspections of the warehouse by the commando team and the second echelon.
Therefore, the members of the commando team gave a simple and clear briefing to their captain at every position.
When entering a room with a lot of wood piled up, Gan Qun suddenly became interested in a part of the room as the lights were turned on.
It was a large chopping board, about three meters long, one and a half meters wide, and ten centimeters thick. It was placed on the ground.
Other wood materials are placed on thick and heavy-duty shelves, and some are placed directly against the wall.
Only this chopping board was placed on the ground in the corner. Its size was neither the largest nor the smallest, but it was placed directly on the ground, which made it look a bit awkward.
Gan Qun walked over, knelt down, stretched out his hand and rubbed the chopping board a few times. He noticed that the chopping board was very clean, as if it had been wiped frequently, and there was no dust on the chopping board.
This is different from other wood in the room. Even the boards placed on the shelves have accumulated some dust. No one has cleaned them, but let them collect dust.
In fact, this is a normal situation.
This wood is just a raw material, not a finished piece of furniture, so why does it need to be wiped every day to prevent it from getting dusty?
Whenever an unreasonable phenomenon occurs in a place, it can be unquestionably certain that there must be a problem in that place.
Gan Qun turned his head and looked at the side of the chopping board again, having some concerns in his mind.
So, he stood up, bent down and slowly walked around the chopping board on the ground, carefully looking at the side of the chopping board.
Finally, he stopped in front of the chopping board, facing the wall.
The three commandos who followed him gradually gathered around, looking at their captain with some confusion.
Gan Qun looked at their confused expressions and said with a smile: "Do you think my behavior is strange?"
The team members nodded one after another and did not deny their doubts in front of the captain.
Gan Qun pointed out to them: "Look at the sides of both ends of this chopping board, and then look at the side of the chopping board where I am standing, you should know what is going on."
The three team members hurriedly bent down to look at the side of the chopping board. After observing for a while, they all stood opposite Gan Qun so that they could talk to the captain.
One of the team members said on behalf of the three of them: "Captain, there are irregular bulges or dents on the three sides of this chopping board. It will always look like this unless it is cut or trimmed.
There’s nothing special about appearance, right?”
"Have you not noticed that there are several dents or bulges on this side of the facade that are not dusty at all? They are extremely clean?"
Ganquan asked.
When the three team members heard this, they couldn't help but look at the side of the chopping board. It was indeed as the captain said.
The same team member answered Gan Qun's question, "Captain, if you didn't explain it specifically, my subordinates really didn't notice this detail.
There are a few places on the side of this chopping board that are too clean, as if someone has often reached out and rubbed and touched them.
Not only were there no dust in those places, they even seemed a little shiny because people touched them frequently, which made them look very strange."
Gan Qun smiled slightly and motioned to them: "Then look at the side elevation of the chopping board in front of your feet. What's the situation like?"
The three people immediately squatted down to look at the side elevation of the chopping board in front of them. They saw that a lot of dust had accumulated on it, which was in sharp contrast to the clean and tidy surface of the chopping board. The same was true of the other three side elevations.
The difference is that no one has touched it anywhere.
Looking at their expressions, Gan Qun knew what they were thinking, so he said: "No one has touched the side of the chopping board in front of you, which means that that side is used to fix the chopping board. You can understand what I mean.
What do you mean?"
All three people shook their heads in unison, obviously not understanding what Gan Qun meant.
Gan Qun did not speak, but pointed to the entrance of the room and asked, "Where is that place?"
The team members all looked in the direction of Gan Qun's finger. They saw that there was only a door and nothing else.
Another team member's mind was spinning a little quickly, and he said: "Captain, that's the entrance to this room, and there's a door. Do you mean to say that the chopping board under our feet is the entrance to the secret passage?"
Where's the door'?"
When he said this, the two team members around him quickly lowered their heads and looked at the chopping board "placed" on the ground. They couldn't help but look more and more like each other, and they couldn't help but nod their heads.
Gan Qun saw them looking at the chopping board on the ground and said: "This inconspicuous chopping board is not placed on the shelf or standing next to the wall, but it is placed alone on the ground, which makes people feel...
strangeness.
The other wooden boards stacked in this room are all covered with dust, but the chopping board in front of us is as bright as new and spotless.
Why is this so?
I think that's because if the dust on the chopping board is not removed, the fingerprints of the person who moved or moved the chopping board will be left, revealing the location of the entrance to the secret passage.
Therefore, people who dig secret tunnels or use secret tunnels must cover up.
At the same time, this can also prove the fact from the side, that is, people must often come to use this chopping board on weekdays, so it is what it is today.
If you take a closer look, the floor of this entire room is very clean. People can walk on it without leaving any traces. It is obvious that someone comes to clean this room from time to time.
For a room where only wooden boards are placed, such careful tidying must be because people often come and go in this room.
If the ground is not cleaned in time, footprints will be left, thus revealing the whereabouts of people.
After my analysis, you should know what’s going on, right?”
The team members nodded, understanding why the captain paid so much attention to this room and attached so much importance to this chopping board.
When Gan Qun saw this, he smiled and said: "Now that you know what's going on, why are you still standing there stupidly? Come on, help me, let's work together to open this 'door to the secret passage'."
As he spoke, he naturally took a step back and waited for his team members to arrive.
