Chapter 287 Night Visit by a Man_1

"Quit the chatter; just bring out the safe."

"Got it!"

Mr. Zhao, smiling, carried out the safe. Its weight made him continuously chant to himself to stay energized.

With such commotion, Xu Dayuan quickly entered. Seeing the dismantled bookshelf, along with the safe in Mr. Zhao's hands, Xu Dayuan's eyes shone with excitement—a discovery meant progress.

"Found it inside the bookshelf?"

"Yeah, during the construction of the house, the safe was embedded into the wall. However, the safe requires both a combination and a key. On the handle and the combination lock, we found bloodstains, which we'll need to test to determine if they belong to the deceased.

Someone with the key, who knows the combination, and is aware of the safe's location would know about it. According to the village chief just now, this house was built in '83, and the construction workers also knew where the safe was located.
