“That’s pretty bad,” said Lottie. “What’s the good news?”

“I’ve got a ham sandwich in my pocket, so we won’t starve to death.”

Lottie groaned. This was just perfect.

“Why don’t you have a key?” moaned Uncle Bert. “I thought you could get into anywhere in the museum?”

Reg pointed to the door. There was no keyhole. Instead there was small metal panel in place of it.

“When they built this room originally it was to store an ancient and extremely valuable jewellery exhibit. So they wanted it to be extra secure. They fitted it with a combination lock on the outside to keep out any unwanted intruders. But maybe if I unscrewed this panel...”

Reg pulled out a screwdriver from his pocket and began to take the screws off the small metal panel on the door. In a few minutes he had removed it and Lottie squeezed past Uncle Bert to take a look. Behind the panel was a grid with a series of numbers printed inside small squares. In three of the squares were brass dials, which Lottie found could be moved to display any number.
