If we let the Four Major Famous Detectives get involved and investigate this case, given the abilities of detectives in The United States of America, he would know right away that we have moved 4,500 tons of gold. It's important to remember that this guy is a die-hard adversary of the government and is full of hostility towards us. Although he has a 100% case closure rate, he always confronts government departments. Once he gets involved, he will certainly be the first to blow the whistle on the US Government for misappropriating gold and the loss of the remaining gold, and then he would solve the case.”

The representative of the US Government was a graceful young wife. She tapped on the table with her finger and said, “For the national interest of The United States of America, the Four Major Famous Detectives absolutely cannot get involved in this matter. Otherwise, as soon as our loss of gold becomes known, the entire world will demand gold from us, and then our country will be completely passive.”

A gaunt man who seemed to be sleeping suddenly interjected, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is a Domestic matter, and normally the CIA has no right to inquire. However, our people also participated in the on-site investigation of this case, and they have discovered a problem.”

The graceful young wife immediately asked, “What problem?”

The CIA representative said, “In the Underground Gold Vault, someone had stepped on and killed a rat. As everyone knows, once the doors of the Underground Gold Vault are shut, the interior is vacuumed into a Vacuum state. Therefore, besides the entry and exit doors, there should be absolutely no passageway connecting to the outside; furthermore, because of the Vacuum state, it is impossible for any living creatures to survive. So, where did that rat come from?”

Everyone was taken aback, as they had unconsciously overlooked the rat while analyzing the issue. However, it now seemed that the presence of the rat was indeed very suspicious. Thus, everyone's attention shifted onto the CIA representative, eager to hear his further explanation.

The CIA representative continued, “Due to the existence of this rat, I assert that the Underground Gold Vault is no longer in a state of complete physical isolation from the outside world. Therefore, I investigated the Underground Pipeline Network situation near the Underground Gold Vault and found an abandoned Mine cave right next to our vault. However, this Mine cave had been sealed, and there was a six meters thick hard rock layer between it and the vault.”

The group immediately searched through the pile of data and found the blueprints for the Underground Gold Vault, where indeed they saw an abandoned Mine cave next to the vault.

Continuing, the CIA representative said, “I suspect there is an unknown passage between this Mine cave and the Underground Gold Vault, and the person who stole the gold must have entered the vault through there and stolen the gold. That rat could have come into the vault following this passage.”

Everyone looked at the massive walls and the smooth ground of the Underground Gold Vault with a sense of doubt and suspicion in their eyes.

The CIA representative mentioned, “My people have already started using an Excavator to dig out that sealed Mine cave, and I believe we will soon know the specifics.”

After hearing what the CIA representative had to say, everyone began to understand a bit about the means used in this major gold heist. It was incredible. The question was, who had the patience to enter this way? The key was that even if they now knew the possible method of the perpetrator, they still couldn't find any obvious traces here.

Representing the New York Federal Reserve Bank, a one-eyed man glanced at the time, then turned to look at someone operating a computer and asked, “Professor Eddie, do we have any reaction from the position locators in our gold right now?”

On hearing the one-eyed man's words, a few people nearby were puzzled. Eddie, seeing this, immediately explained, “Our New York Federal Reserve Bank has built this fail-safe Underground Gold Vault to prevent theft of gold…

But before Eddie could finish speaking, he was cut off by the representative from the United States military, “Please explain, if this place is really impregnable, then where did the gold stored here go?”

Eddie was left speechless by the retort, and after a while, he said, “We also considered the possibility of the gold being stolen, so when melting the gold into Gold Bricks, we secretly added Position locators to some of the bricks. If the gold is still inside the vault, then the Position locators inside wouldn't be activated. But once the gold is taken out through illegal channels, 24 hours after leaving the Underground Gold Vault, the Position locators inside the bricks would automatically activate and send back the location of the gold bricks to us. We would then use the Satellite System to locate those gold bricks and use that location to recover them.”

On hearing that these gold bricks had such a hidden ace up their sleeve, several anxious people in the room breathed a sigh of relief. The FBI representative said, “Since there are Position locators inside the gold bricks, then we just have to wait for the locators to send us the information. However, we need to prepare in advance, and as soon as we determine the gold bricks' location, we must immediately set out to retrieve them.”
