This tunnel has been quiet for 200 years.

But this night, the creatures who live here have a fateful fate.

If the fat mouse had a mind, it would probably feel that it was terribly frightened.

Just when it was about to "chick" and pass by the man's smooth leather shoe, the leather shoe suddenly moved, and then, at a speed that it couldn't react... stepped on its tail.

Big Mouse: "Squeak!"

Sherlock knelt down and said in a soft tone:

"You've obviously seen her."

The big mouse desperately scratched the ground with its short legs: "Squeak."

Sherlock ignored the faint protest:

"The beard is your measuring stick, and your beard on the left is obviously asymmetrical to the beard on the right... She plucked your beard?"

Big Mouse: "Squeak."

"You don't have to try to answer me, it's futile because your cerebral cortex lacks language areas."

Sherlock loosened his foot nonchalantly.

The tunnel is covered with a shallow layer of groundwater. Judging from the degree of soaking on the mouse's legs, it can't run in the water for more than a minute.

A mouse needs to run a distance of 1 minute, how fast can a person go?

It doesn't matter how fast you go.

Ludwig walked into the dark corridor behind the big disc, and pulled on the inner bolt, the gears turned with a click, and the big disc was disguised as a tight fit again.

——It is a good habit to lock the door casually.

She said she didn't do it on purpose, would anyone believe her?Locking the door is one of the few things that must be done when living with Sherlock.

Even though her lock never worked, Sherlock would only dress her for three seconds before picking it, regardless of whether she had slept naked or not.

But if it is not locked, she may only have one second to get dressed.

The bright beam of the flashlight illuminated the inner walls of the tunnel, and Ludwig's eyes widened.

The scene in front of him was beyond the scope of a qualified sewer, and Ludwig almost thought he had walked into a pyramid.

But this is no pyramid.

Most of the tomb passages of the pyramids are sloped, probably in ancient times to facilitate the transportation of funerary objects and building materials. However, in this tunnel, the straight steps lead to deeper underground, so deep that even the light of a flashlight cannot reach it.

... What about the agreement to enter the Louvre within two steps?

Has Sophie Marceau been in such a deep place in "The Phantom of the Louvre"?Lord of the plot, this is absolutely OOC!

There are exquisite murals carved on both sides of the tunnel, and Ludwig put the flashlight on the first pattern.

It was a sea and a small island.

Ludwig resolutely moved the flashlight to the next mural—she is a science student, and she didn’t even know that Jilin is the capital of Changchun, so she could barely recognize it as the Mediterranean Sea. pass.

The second Ludwig recognized. It was a map of Italy.

The third one is Egypt, next to the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the sculpture of the Sphinx is too representative.

The fourth is a group of people standing together, the fifth is a book on a throne, the sixth is another map, and the seventh is... the Arc de Triomphe?

Mediterranean, Italy, Egypt, Arc de Triomphe?

She knows what it is.

This is the memorabilia of Napoleon's life.

He was born on the island of Corsica in the Mediterranean Sea, not far from Egypt. He fought countless battles throughout his life. The total number of battles, large and small, was more than that of Caesar. The first place he fought was Italy, which was half of his mother country. One is Egypt.

Then the fourth picture should be the Brumaire coup, in which Napoleon established the Consulate.The fifth one is that he promulgated the "Napoleonic Code", and the seventh one is that he built the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

Napoleon did have a deep connection with Mediterranean civilization. Not to mention that he got his oracle from Egypt. When Ludwig heard the "Code of Napoleon", the first thing that came to mind was the "Code of Hammurabi".

Napoleon was a collector. The traces of his looting extended from the ancient East to the hinterland of Europe. The Louvre Museum had 40 pieces in its collection, only a few of which belonged to France itself, but only [-] pieces were returned by those countries in the end.

This is unusual.

Sherlock's words still ring in his ears.

"Compared to this, I believe they built a tunnel or a secret room to hide those treasures that are so precious that they cannot see the light of day... If they can't find them, they won't be able to take them away."

The Holmes are always right.

and so……

She searched for the memory and the code left by her father, but what she found was the secret room built by the French Emperor Napoleon under the Louvre?

The setting of this series of codes and the choice of Tibetan places are enough to prove that Ludwig's family is a good student of history.

——but kneeling down and begging for mercy over science students, okay?

……

Ludwig walked down the stairs. Along the way, she saw the gorgeous life of the most extravagant emperor in history—Napoleon’s extravagant world is obvious to all. The toothbrushes used by people are all carved in pure gold. Single-handedly promoted the development of modern luxury trade.

She walked for a full 3 minutes before reaching the end.

At the end is a carved stone door.

The strange thing is that there are thick copper pipes buried on both sides of the stone gate, extending to the gap above and below the stone gate, and covering the gap tightly.

What's even more strange is that there are two exquisitely engraved crowns carved on the stone gate... two crowns?

The first was his classic laurel crown, which was worn by Napoleon when he was crowned, and the second was a triangular diamond, which she didn't recognize at the moment.

Napoleon was the only ruler of France after the establishment of the Republic. Where did the two crowns come from?Could it be that he was reluctant to part with both tops, so he had to engrave them?

Ludwig's flashlight shone on the mottled mural, and he suddenly discovered that there was an opening behind the second crown.

Although only slightly inconspicuous, it is so much smaller than the actual crown opening that it is almost invisible.

But it is also enough to prove that this crown is the crown of Empress Josephine. Back then, Napoleon asked the designer to design a crown for Josephine. The poor designer violated Napoleon if he did not design it, and violated the law if he designed it.

In desperation, he tactfully designed Josephine's crown to be open.

Now such two crowns are actually... juxtaposed?

This is absolutely true love.

The keyhole was right in front of her eyes, but she didn't dare to act rashly—because she walked all the way, it was so smooth.

There are countless organs buried in the tombs of ancient Egypt. Napoleon was fascinated by the culture of ancient Egypt. How could it be so easy for people to enter the treasure chamber he built?

Ludwig put his nose close to the seam at the bottom of the copper pipe... The copper pipe is either used to pass gas or liquid, or to hold things. Such a weird pipe cannot be just a decoration.

She couldn't smell the contents, but at the seams some always leaked when the workmen installed the pipes.

There are only some very faint traces on the ground, and after 100 years, their original color and smell can still be vaguely distinguished.

This is--

Nitrogen.Glycerin.Oil...Liquid.Body bomb?

Hey, please don't be so sophisticated, Mr. Plot, please?Liquid bombs were invented around the time of Napoleon's death. They are more sensitive than solid explosives, and ordinary frictional heat can easily detonate them.

In other words, if she opened the lock in the wrong way, or with too much force, she might detonate the explosives in these four huge pipes, blowing herself to pieces?

The key was inserted into the lock, turned to the left, but did not turn.

So she turned again to the right and turned.

She stopped there.

Ludwig was a little nervous, 90.00% of what Sherlock relied on in doing things was meticulous observation and reasoning, and [-]% was intuition.

And 90.00% of what she relies on is intuition.

Of course, one percent of Sherlock's 90.00% of her is more than enough.

She had a strong feeling right now—something else, there must be something else she was missing.

Ludwig held the key and locked his eyes on the stone door.

Josephine's crown, why is the opening so small?Why can the emperor's crown and queen's crown be juxtaposed?Why is the emperor's crown on the right and the queen's crown on the left?

No matter how much the emperor loves his queen, no queen is really allowed to be side by side with any king.

Not to mention, Napoleon himself was a dictator, a dictator who would have been crowned emperor even in the era of the republic.

and so--

Ludwig held the key and turned left again.

This time it turned.

With the drive of the gear, the door lock opened with a "click".

— She was right.

The juxtaposed crowns and the deliberately weakened openings symbolize symmetry, and the order of the left and right crowns symbolizes royal power, so the order is from left to right, and she needs to turn twice.

The door opened quietly.

Ludwig walked to the door, and again smoothly... closed the door.

Therefore, good habits also depend on the occasion.

What unfolded in front of Ludwig was a zigzag underground corridor like a nine-curved corridor, which was also not high.

There are also furry, densely packed little creatures hanging upside down on the wall.

bat.

shit.

The plot gentleman is really a master.

The top of the ten-meter-long tunnel is full of these little bats... This also shows that this secret room has other exits, because the arch she entered before was completely sealed.

A foul smell surged in the air, and the avatars of vampires were stirred by the light from Ludwig's flashlight.

Ludwig immediately covered the flashlight, leaving only a faint light between his fingers.

It seems that she doesn't have to worry about what to do if the cup is stuck here and there is no food.

If she could eat a bat.

The nutritional value of mice is so high, and the meat is also delicate, the taste of bats should not be much worse, right?

On the main road in the middle of the corridor, four huge pipes started from the arch behind her and extended all the way down to an invisible end.

That is to say, if someone opens the door forcibly, not only will not

With such a large basement, it is impossible for people in the Louvre on the ground to be unaware.

The only explanation is that in order to protect the things buried here, the builders and the previous curators of the Louvre kept silent.

French booty, proof that Napoleon's armies plundered it.

These things were placed in the glass cabinets on both sides of the aisle, full of necklaces, jewelry, jade, and artworks that she didn't recognize.

The underground temperature is just right for preserving antiques, and the most advanced anti-oxidation technology at that time is obviously used in the glass cabinet.

Ludwig walked lightly through the dense bat ceiling and approached one of the glass cabinets. With the help of the weak light, she used a stone to push away the thick bat guano on the glass cabinet.

Then he took a deep breath.

It was a white arm.

She is too familiar with the pattern of the broken arm, and the goddess is also one of the research topics of Professor Ludwig.

——That was the arm that the broken-armed goddess Venus lost in the process of being robbed.

Ludwig walked quickly through the tunnel, feeling bad all over.

She actually saw the unsolved mystery that humans have been looking for for centuries, and begged Napoleon not to be so scary!

And on the other side, just 1 minute after Ludwig opened the stone door.

Sherlock destroyed the inner mechanism of the iron gate, easily pushed open the large round turntable, bent slightly, and did not stop at all for the exquisite murals around him.

This tunnel is only suitable for small people under 1.7 meters to pass through, and France has the ability to build a secret room under the Louvre, and only the short Pepin and Napoleon are under 1.7 meters in height.

Coupled with the strong Egyptian style here, it is easy to deduce that this is the vestibule of Napoleon's Chamber.

——boring.

Therefore, he didn't need to look at those murals, which were probably memorabilia of Napoleon's life and nothing new.

The answer came to him when his eyes swept over the stone at the door.

——boring.

He stepped down the steps in three steps at a time, his coat raised behind him.

He didn't have time to look at those murals either.

Because his little girlfriend was single-handedly missing.

Behind the stone gate, the bats were all asleep. Ludwig covered his nose with his sleeve, and passed through the bat group that was nearly ten meters away without any risk.

After the swarm of bats, turn around a corner and you will find a small square.

Three roads connected the square, and it seemed that this was the deepest part of the secret room, because the roads connecting the square were all sloping upwards.

There are two coffins in the middle of the circular square, both in the style of ancient Egypt. The painted terracotta figurines clasped their hands on their chests, with black and white eyes, looking dully ahead.

Huge chains bind the ancient Egyptian coffin in the shape of terracotta figurines, extending to the wide dome.

On the dome is an upside-down mushroom-shaped sculpture, where one end of the chain is tied.

But these are not the main ones.

The most important thing is that in the center of the circular square, next to the two coffins, under the huge sky, there is a slender man standing.

The man was wearing a white tight-sleeved shirt and a black vest. When he heard the noise, he turned his head slightly.

Ludwig did not see his face.

Because he was holding a mask...not a mummy's black mask, but a clown mask.

"You came later than I thought, so I had to wait in the anxiety of longing."

The young man put down his mask, bent his knees, and performed an authentic British greeting.

"And after all this waiting, you're finally here."

He raised his head, his gray-blue eyes were full of tenderness, and smiled slightly at her:

"My...Juliet."

separated by a wall.

Standing in front of the arched stone door, Sherlock's eyes finally sank completely.

She locked the door again.

again.

It seems that he needs to have a good discussion with her about locking the door.

The intentionally narrowed opening on the crown is obviously for the purpose of seeking symmetry, indicating that the interior of the door lock is a gear-shaped structure, and there are traces of nitroglycerin underground... nitroglycerin?

Sherlock pursed his lips.

From the color, we can tell that this cannot be something left over 100 years ago, which means that there are people here who maintain it regularly, at least recently.

—The facts out there don't take him time to think about, boring.

His eyes were fixed on the lock,

The lock is a gear structure, and the key is in the possession of his girlfriend who ran away from home, because he never thought that she would choose to leave him and fight alone.

Fucking alone.

He only has a needle in his hand, and the liquid bomb is too sensitive, and it will explode if you don't pay attention.If a needle were to be used to open the lock... he was only 80.00% sure.

80.00%.

High?

No, this is too low.

People are such fragile animals, whether it's her or him.

If there was any chance of him losing her...

Then, don't say 20.00%, one percent is a range he can't bear.

Those in power are most afraid of death, so this secret room must not have only one exit.

There must be other ways.

Sherlock was silent for a second in front of the stone door.

In this second, the conversation between them flashed through his mind in a flash.

- "Beyond that, he was rebellious and maverick - his library included almost every religion in the world, except God, the one who prevailed by far."

——"Egyptian cigarettes are very irritating, which means that your father is not a small smoker, but this ashtray has not been used at all."

——"Because he likes this ashtray. He has always collected rather than used the cherished things."

……

God, Catholicism, the beginning of the world.

Another entrance to the secret room was found by him.

Sherlock turned and ran out, the windbreaker billowing behind him, scraping against the rough walls.

That's right, he's running now.

He wants to go faster, and faster.

Otherwise she will die inside.

The fact that dynamite was invented at a similar time to Napoleon's death was intended to confuse the viewer, but in reality, dynamite was not invented until after Napoleon's death.

It is impossible for her to remember the time so accurately, so she will not suspect that someone replaced the liquid in the pipe in advance, just to make it more difficult for them to pass the level.

And the purpose of making explosives is only one

--explode.
