Behind a bookshelf was a passage that lead down to a Secret Store (also described as a "secret store room" in the notes, but "Secret Store" in the glory notes). A hidden lever in the store room opend a passage behind a chair. The chair lead down to the Star of the Orient. After Indy saves Suzie Tan at the Fireworks Factory, she takes him back to the store to find the Jade Sphere. They discover that the place has been ransacked.
 * The store does not specifically appear in the PSP version. Archie Tan's office is visited briefly at the beginning of the game, although it is unclear if this is the office at his business or a home office.
 * In the DS version the store is called Tan's Exotic Imports by Loo Sing. It's sign calls it "Archie's". Indy follows a lead that Suzy Tan is hiding there from the Tong. When he gets there he finds Tong gangsters trying to break into Archie's office on the second floor. After Indy beats the thugs, Suzy comes out to greet Indy, and tells him to find the secret basement. Indy uses an Chinese Lantern Projector in the office that project's images of Chinese zodiac symbols. The symbols correspond to certain zodiak panels on his wall, that when pushed in the correct order open a hidden safe in his wall, where the key to the basement is hidden. Indy uses the disk key to open a passage in the store that leads down to the basement, a Cipher of Meribah that Kingston had hidden. After finding the information about the Star of the Orient and the hidden passage in Lao Che's Lounge he heads back to Tan's office and opens the door to the roof.
