Secker's Smuggling Cabinets Locked Storage Unit

A reinforced metal filing cabinet bolted to the luggage area floor, its surface cold to the touch despite the oppressive heat of the confined space. The lock mechanism glows faintly under the Doctor's sonic screwdriver's beam before disengaging with a quiet electronic whine. Inside rests a small container sealed with black biohazard markings, its contents shifting slightly when disturbed. Two other unlocked cabinets nearby show signs of hasty forced entry—drawers ajar, papers scattered—suggesting Secker scrambled to secure evidence before fleeing.

Before: Locked and hidden beneath luggage, untouched except by Secker moments before
After: Forcefully opened, drawer ajar, revealing evidence of prior tampering and the now-removed container
