Jin is browsing through books on a bookshelf when he notices a peculiar book. It seems out of place, almost hidden.


Jin (Intrigued): "Hmm, what's this?"


He pulls the book out and examines it closely. It's a very old book, with intricate gold lettering on the cover.


Jin (Whispering): "This is interesting."


As he tries to open the book, he notices a small, hidden latch on the back cover.


Jin (Excited): "What's this?"


He carefully pries the latch (like a small pocket) open and a secret compartment reveals itself.


Jin (Gasping): "Wow."


Inside the compartment is a small, ornate key.


Jin (Intrigued): "What could this be for?"


Placing the book at its previous place, he looks around the library, his eyes scanning the shelves and the walls. He notices a hidden panel behind a large bookcase.


Jin (Whispering): "I wonder... "


He moves the bookcase aside and reveals a hidden safe in the wall.


Jin (Heart pounding): "...What this is?"


He carefully inserts the key into the lock and turns it. With a satisfying click, the safe opens. A thick book was visible. He pulls out a thick, leather-bound book and flips through the pages slowly.


Jin (astonished): "These... These seems like family photos and old financial records."


He tosses the book aside and continues to look inside the safe. He notices another hidden compartment inside the safe. With a excited yet curious look, he reaches for it and pulls it open.


Inside the compartment, he finds a stack of documents and a small, ornate box. He carefully removes the documents and starts to read them. His eyes widen as he takes in the shocking revelations.
