Picking up Leaks in live broadcast: There are Treasures Everywhere in my Eyes - Chapter 574
Chapter 576
Gardner Museum, Xiao Ran and David are looking at those materials provided by Gardner Museum.
In fact, in the past two hours, they have read a lot of relevant materials.
The materials that have been seen are all placed on the left side of the conference table, and have long been stacked into a hill.
Through these materials, Xiao Ran has a deeper understanding of this century robbery that occurred 30 years ago, and also knows some little-known insiders.
While speaking, Xiao Ran read a copy of a police investigation document, and then fell into deep thought.
A moment later, he suddenly put the document on the table, pointed to a photo on the document and said:
“Peggy, this former museum security guard, Richard. Abbas, where is it now?
“Didn’t the police suspect that this guy had something to do with the robbery of the century, and why was there no follow-up to his investigation?”
Peggy looked at the document and explained
, “That’s right, Sean, of the two guards on duty at the museum, Richard. Abbas’s suspicion is even greater
” “After some investigation, the FBI Art Crime Unit believes that he may be the inside of two armed robbers
” “It was he who opened the staff entrance to two robbers disguised as police officers, which led to the looting of the museum
” “After being identified as a suspect, the FBI immediately interrogated, and nothing was asked and no evidence was found
” “A few years later, The police have been closely monitoring Richard’s every move, trying to find evidence, but in vain
” “Three years after the robbery, Richard resigned from the museum, then changed several jobs
, and then lost his job” “Later, the guy became a poisonous insect, and within a few years he was addicted to death, and the investigation against him could only be terminated
” “After Richard lost his job, even if he was poor, he did not take out those top works of art to sell, The living conditions are extremely bad
” “From this, the police judged that those top works of art were not in his hands, and he was not an accomplice of the robbers, so they dispelled their suspicions about him”
Hearing this explanation, Xiao Ran first pondered for a moment, and then nodded.
“In that sense, Richard. Abbas’s suspicion is indeed not great
” “When those poisonous insects are addicted, even his wife and children can sell them for money, and then go to buy drugs
” “In this case, since he did not take out those top artworks, it is enough to show that those top artworks are not in his hands”
That being said, Xiao Ran glanced at Richard. Abbas used to live and memorized that address.
He then flipped back a few more pages, then pointed to another photo and asked,
“What about James Balger?” The Boston underground world in the eighties and nineties, but the world of this once the most wanted criminal in the United States
” “Someone did such a big vote on his territory, so big that it shocked the world, the case was worth up to half a billion dollars, he wouldn’t know anything, right?”
Peggy looked at Balger’s picture and then introduced the situation.
“When investigating this robbery of the century, the first suspect of the FBI art crime team was ‘white-haired’
Balger” “In the eighties and nineties of the last century, the Winter Mountain Gang controlled by Balger, through secret cooperation with the FBI, did control the underground world of Boston
” “After the robbery, the police immediately looked for Balger to investigate the situation, but did not find any reliable evidence, so they could only let him go”
Then Balger also looked around for the two robbers pretending to be policemen, ready to come to a black and black, so as to make a big profit, but unfortunately
he did not find it” “Later, Balger’s collusion with senior FBI agents and many crimes were exposed, and this guy fled Boston until he was arrested 17 years later in 2011
” “After Balger was caught, the FBI Art Crime Unit reopened its investigation of him and went to prison several times to interrogate him, but Balger did not provide any valuable clues”
“In 2018, Balger was stabbed to death in prison, and the investigation against him can only be terminated, and no one knows if the two robbers are his subordinates”
Xiao Ran nodded, and after writing down some information about the Dongshan Gang and Balger, he closed the folder and put it aside.
Next, he picked up another document and continued to look at it.
After a few glances, he pointed to a photo on the document and asked,
“This is named Myers. Connor’s rocker, where does he live now?
“Why would a rock musician be involved in such a heist of the century and be the object of suspicion?”
When the words fell, Peggy gave an explanation.
“This guy is a rocker and a habitual art robber
” “As early as 1975, he was detained for robbing art, and this was only caught by
the police” “The art robbery that the police did not catch, God knows how much this guy did, in the field of art theft, this guy has some fame
” “The investigation against Myers has been continuing, but the FBI art crime team has never been able to find any evidence, can only watch this guy get away with
it” “Seven years after the robbery, that is, in 1997, there were rumors that Miles was going to return
the 13 top works of art to our museum” “The origin of this rumor is unknown, Miles also denied it, and he did not send the 13 top works of art back”
“After that, in 1998, the guy left Boston, moved to New York, and later moved to Philadelphia, Life is not bad”
Listening to this introduction, Xiao Ran and they all chuckled.
“This guy is a little interesting, I didn’t expect to be an art thief
” “If I have the opportunity, I would like to meet this guy”
Xiao Ran said with a smile and a nod.
Next, he continued to flip through the documents and ask about some of the other suspects.
Peggy is very familiar with the situation of these suspects, like several family treasures.
This shows how much he wants to recover the 13 top works of art that were looted as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, more than an hour passed.
Xiao Ran finally read all the information, even if it was just to watch the flowers.
Then, Xiao Ran fell into thought.
Began to weigh the difficulty of solving the case and whether to cooperate with the Gardner Museum.
In the process, he walked aside with David and discussed a few words in a low voice.
Of course, this is just a show, just to make everything seem a little more reasonable.
Three or five minutes later, Xiao Ran made a decision.
He looked at Peggy and the others on the other side, and then said with a smile: “Peggy
, I decided to cooperate with your museum to try to solve this 30-year-old robbery of the century and recover the looted
top artworks” “This thing is very interesting and challenging, I am willing to try it, as long as those top artworks are still alive, I may be able to find them
” “As for the terms of cooperation, just like I said before, I want half of these 13 top works of art, and I want your cooperation,…… Before
the words fell, Peggy and they stood up in unison, as if electrocuted.
However, their reactions have varied.
The informed Peggy and the two deputy curators were full of surprise.
The other two museum high-ranking officials were in pain.
Obviously, Xiao Ran’s lion opened his mouth and startled them.
“Okay, Sean, we can agree to your conditions and cooperate with
you” “As long as you can retrieve those 13 top artworks, we are willing to give half as a reward”
Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately smiled and nodded.
“Since you can accept my conditions, it’s better, let’s talk about the specific terms of
the agreement” Before the words fell, David had already taken out the agreement that had been drawn up and handed it to Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran left one copy and casually handed the other copies to Peggy and them.
……
In the blink of an eye, it was around nine o’clock in the evening.
After dinner and resting for a while, Xiao Ran called David and Sam to the study to discuss the next treasure hunt.
When David and they sat down, Xiao Ran immediately entered the topic.
“Sam, tomorrow you will find a way to get two ordinary cars, I am ready to go to the territory of the Dongshan Gang to explore alone
” “The more ordinary these two cars, the better, it is best to be the kind of old car that the car thief can’t raise any interest in seeing it, but the performance must be good, and it must be replaced with snow tires”
Before the words fell, David had lost his voice and exclaimed.
“Ah! Are you going to the territory of the Dongshan Gang to explore alone? Isn’t that too risky?
“You know, everyone knows you in Boston now, everyone knows
you” “It is estimated that when you first enter the territory of the Winter Mountain Gang, you will be recognized, and then targeted by those scum of the Winter Mountain Gang”
Like David, Sam was also a little stunned.
Xiao Ran smiled softly, and whispered
neatly: “That’s right, I’m going to go to the territory of the Winter Mountain Gang alone, in my opinion, Balger sent people to loot those top works of art is the most likely
” “Although Balger has long died, his family and mansion are still there, all in Boston’s South City, that is, the territory of the Winter Mountain Gang
” “As for safety, you don’t have to worry, I will disguise myself, and now it’s winter again, People are dressed very thickly, wrapped tightly, no one can recognize
me” “Besides, I didn’t go to the territory of the Dongshan Gang empty-handed, even if those scum of the Dongshan Gang wanted to move me, it depended on whether they had any skills”
Hearing this, David was suddenly silent.
He thought he knew Xiao Ran’s strength very well.
If he went prepared, the scum of the Dongshan Gang really did not pose much threat.
At this moment, Sam suddenly interjected and said:
“Sean, the Winter Hill Gang is the ruler of the Boston underground world, and they are very strong!” Not to be underestimated!
“Or I’ll take a few guys with you, it’s safer!”
Xiao Ran looked at him, then shook his head and rejected the proposal.
“It’s better for me to go alone, there are too many people, but it’s eye-piercing, and it’s inconvenient to move!”
“You can take two groups of guys, find a place to stay outside the territory of the Dongshan Gang, and prepare to pick me up”
Of course you can’t take you, buddy has more important things to do tomorrow.
Going to the territory of the Dongshan Gang to check the situation is just a pretense, how can you show the stuffing!
