These brothers made the purchase of a lifetime. It was a large piece of land on the outskirts of town. They were planning to build their own home there.
But they did not expect this shed to still be present on the grounds. They opened it. And inside they found a hidden secret that revealed the identity of the former owner.
Brothers Henry and Tom were on their way to their purchased piece of land. It was a thrilling drive. And both brothers couldn’t wait to see what their investment had bought them.
They got the place for basically nothing at an online auction, so maybe it was a bust. But still, excitement was high. They arrived at the gate and took the first steps on their new property.
It was a rough terrain and Tom could immediately see that it needed a lot of work. But then they saw something they didn’t expect. In the middle, a structure was still standing, a building they did not see on the map they received after the purchase.
It was an old, rusty shed. It had seen better days, but it piqued their interest. Henry walked around the worn-down building while Tom yanked at the two large doors in the front.
Do you see another way in? Because the main doors seem to be locked tightly, Tom asked his brother. Henry walked around the corner to reunite with his brother. The shed had a heavy chain lock connecting the two doors together…
But Henry knew just how to solve this problem. Henry looked at the ground beneath his feet and quickly saw the tool to their solution. He picked up a steel pipe that was laying in some rubble and shoved it between the lock’s chains.
After a couple of tries, they heard the sweet sound of a chain bursting. The air inside was musky and it was too dark to see anything properly, so Henry and Tom used their flashlights to look around. Because in the right corner of the worn-down building there were multiple large boxes, some with hanging locks, just like the shed had, but smaller.
The two brothers were fascinated. They felt like they were on some storage-hunter TV show. The boxes were old, but the details on them were intricate.
It made them look way too important to just be tossed out to rot in a shed, and their insides proved it. They were filled with documents, a complex-looking blueprint, and pictures of a man and his family. These must have been the original owners.
The blueprint was filled with perfectly straight lines, drawing so detailed and precise that they must have taken months to create. But there was one detail that was free-flowing. It was the signature of the maker, the initials read RS, and they were encased in an upside-down triangle.
Something about it seemed familiar to Henry. This shed and these plans quickly became more important than the land they bought. The two brothers stepped into their car and drove to the first place they could think of.
The local library was the first stop on their road to discovery. The two brothers split up tasks and searched for hours, but unfortunately to no prevail. There was no trace of this mysterious RS.
They had to try something else. Tom told Henry that they needed outside help. Maybe someone in this town knew more about RS and the land they had bought…
