Picking up Leaks in live broadcast: There are Treasures Everywhere in my Eyes - Chapter 592
Chapter 594
It wasn’t until the evening that they left the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Xiao Ran did not reach a cooperation agreement with the Philadelphia Museum of Art to track down the art stolen from their museum.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art executives needed to meet to discuss whether to cooperate with him.
During the visit, Xiao Ran found an opportunity to open his own cooperation conditions.
He gave the Philadelphia Museum of Art two options, either.
The first option, like Gardner’s, is that if he recovers the stolen artworks at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, he will demand half of the artworks as payment.
The second cooperation condition is that the Philadelphia Museum of Art exchanges this half of the artwork for the collection of Chinese antique artworks as a cooperative reward!
Not surprisingly, Timothy and they were all taken aback by this cooperation condition, and they couldn’t stop sighing at Xiao Ran’s greed.
However, they did not close the door to cooperation, only said that they would have a meeting to discuss it.
The simple reason is that it is better to recover half of the stolen art than to get nothing back!
When they walked out of the museum, it was already late afternoon, and the sky was getting dark.
There are many more journalists waiting at the entrance of the museum waiting for interviews than a few hours ago.
In addition to many media reporters, there were many guys watching the excitement at the scene, and there were some guys with bad intentions.
Seeing Xiao Ran and them coming out of the museum, the scene immediately set off a commotion.
In particular, many media reporters rushed to ask questions aloud, lest they miss any major news.
Just like at noon, Xiao Ran still used the excuse of visiting Philadelphia to prevaricate these media reporters.
As for whether these journalists believe it or not, he doesn’t care at all!
Believe it or not!
After briefly answering a few questions, Xiao Ran took Elaine and them, under the protection of Sam and others, and left the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
This time he left by car, not on foot!
Now that many people know the news of his coming to Philadelphia, naturally be careful!
In the blink of an eye, the group had returned to the hotel.
As soon as he entered the suite, Xiao Ran immediately called Marven over and said to this guy:
“Marven, you arrange a few guys to secretly target Miles. Connor and McCann, these two guys, don’t let them find out
” “The news of my coming to Philadelphia, these two guys must already know, maybe there will be suspicions, or even escape Philadelphia, we have to guard against it!”
“Before in Boston, I went to the Gardner Museum several times, and there are many people who know about this, and these two guys may be able to get some
news” “They have lived in Boston for a long time, there must be many friends and relatives there, and there are many channels to get news” ”
Even the employees of the Gardner Museum, as well as the FBI and CIA, have the possibility of leaking secrets and leaking about our cooperation with the Gardner Museum”
Before the words fell, Marven immediately nodded and replied
: “Understand, Sean, leave this matter to us, those two guys will definitely not escape our field of vision
” “In order to grasp their whereabouts, we have set our eyes on those two guys, installed some monitoring and tracking equipment, and kept an eye
on those two guys” Xiao Ran nodded, and then said:
“You are staring at those two guys at the same time, Also be careful with those guys from the Philadelphia police and FBI
” “Those guys would definitely be mixed in if they knew the real purpose of our visit to Philadelphia
” “If nothing else, just the $10 million bounty from the Gardner Museum is enough to drive those guys crazy!”
“Especially those bastards from the FBI Art Crime Unit are estimated to have come to Philadelphia, and may be hiding in the dark to watch us!”
“I don’t want to work hard for someone else’s wedding dress in vain!”
After a few more words, Xiao Ran ended the conversation and let Marven leave.
The truth was exactly as he expected!
In another hotel not far from the Four Seasons Hotel, a few old friends of the FBI’s art crime team are discussing how to cut off their beards halfway!
“Boss, there’s the latest news
from the Philadelphia Museum of Art” “After that guy Sean left, Timothy immediately called a meeting of all the museum executives to discuss the cooperation with that guy Sean” ”
At the meeting, Timothy told the rest of the high-level that the guy Sean said that Philadelphia is likely to hide two art thieves!”
“It is likely that these two art thieves ransacked the Gardner Museum 30 years ago and stole those 13 top works of art!”
“The thefts that took place at the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1998 and 2005 could have been done by these two art thieves!”
“Sean’s guy offered very harsh terms of cooperation, the same as the Gardner Museum, he wanted half of the stolen art,”
said an FBI agent in his early thirties, holding a cellphone, which apparently had just been received.
Before the words fell, several other guys in the room had already exclaimed.
“That’s right! Sean this guy really came for those top artworks in the Gardner Museum, and I don’t know what this guy found?
“This bastard is still as greedy as ever, and even tried to eat half of the stolen art, without putting the high bounty in his eyes!”
“We must not let this bastard succeed, he can’t see a $10 million reward, but that money is a windfall for us!”
After a burst of exclamations, several members of the FBI’s art crime team all looked at the team leader.
Without exception, each of them is full of greed and ready to move!
“Boss, should we take some measures to monitor and monitor Sean’s bastard and his subordinates
” “As long as we can monitor the names of those two art thieves, we can take the lead and secretly arrest
those two guys” “Once those two guys fall into our hands, I believe there is nothing that can’t be dug up!”
Another agent said with bright eyes, he couldn’t wait.
The team leader shook his head slightly.
“Monitoring that guy Shaun and his subordinates is simply unrealistic, those guys are too vigilant, and they are all masters!”
“Just keep an eye on Sean’s cunning bastard, and when they do it, we can forcibly intervene
” “Don’t forget, we are the FBI Art Crime Unit, and we have the right to interrogate all art crimes that occur in the United States!”
“As long as the intervention is timely, then we can get what we want,…… Hearing
this, these FBI agents at the scene were immediately more excited.
At this time, they seem to have seen a huge reward of tens of millions of dollars falling from the sky and smashing down their heads.
Next, the guys continue to discuss various courses of action, trying to cut off the beard halfway!
Meanwhile, in a villa in suburban Philadelphia.
Two white men in their fifties and sixties were worriedly discussing what had happened today.
Xiao Ran brought people from Boston to Philadelphia, which put a lot of pressure on these two guys and made them sit down!
Such a situation has never happened in the 30-year investigation by Boston police and the FBI art crime team!
The reason why they behave this way is simple!
The image of Xiao Ran’s miracle creator is too deeply rooted in people’s hearts!
……
In the blink of an eye, it’s a new day.
At about ten o’clock in the morning, Xiao Ran and they left the hotel and prepared to go out for a tour.
Like yesterday, they are still walking today, not by car.
Of course, several bulletproof SUVs are always following them, ready to pick them up and leave quickly.
After coming out of the hotel, Xiao Ran quickly looked around, and then led Elaine and them to the Swan Memorial Fountain.
Some media reporters guarding the entrance of the hotel immediately followed, ready to catch breaking news.
Now all journalists in the United States know that as long as they follow Xiao Ran, they will not worry about no heavy news.
While laughing, Xiao Ran had passed through the Swan Memorial Fountain and entered the street located on the northwest side of the fountain.
At this moment, Sam suddenly came over and whispered:
“Sean, as you expected, those guys from the FBI Art Crime Unit followed
” “Two of the guys are fifty meters away, pretending to be tourists to follow us”
Hearing the report, Xiao Ran couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Obviously, the Philadelphia Museum of Art leaked the news, so it attracted these old friends
” “Since they like to follow, let them follow!”
With that, he glanced back and nodded lightly at the two FBI agents pretending to be tourists.
Looking at the two FBI agents again, they were directly stunned in place, their faces full of embarrassment!
Only when Xiao Ran turned his head did they react.
“Fak! Sean’s bastard’s men found us, and it was too fucking fast!
“The boss is right, Sean, this bastard and his subordinates are all masters!”
“The identity and appearance of each of us, these bastards are estimated to be very clear, which is why they can find us so quickly!”
While the two FBI agents were whispering, Xiao Ran had arrived at the door of an antique store and then stopped.
This is a medium-sized antique shop, antique and has a bit of character.
In front of the antique shop, there is a woodcut statue of an Indian chief, which is vividly made!
In the windows on both sides of the antique shop, there are several landscape oil paintings on one side and several sculptures on the other, with different artistic styles.
After standing still, Xiao Ran first glanced at the door of this antique shop, and then pushed the door and walked in.
At this time, the antique shop owner also heard the noise outside and was walking towards the door.
Two clerks are busy, wiping down display cases and coffee tables.
Seeing Xiao Ran coming in, the antique shop owner and the two clerks were immediately stunned, and seemed to be a little unable to believe their eyes!
At this moment, Xiao Ran greeted with a smile.
“Good morning, gentlemen, I see that your antique shop is open, so come in and take a look
” “Didn’t bother you, or should I come back later?”
Before the words fell, the antique shop owner was already busy saying:
“Good morning, Mr. Sean, welcome to my antique shop, I am Jones
” “I am deeply honored to have you come to my antique shop!”
Saying that, the antique shop owner stepped forward and touched his elbow with Xiao Ran.
At this time, the antique shop owner had a very mixed feeling, both excited and worried.
What made him excited was the presence of such a top collector and super rich as Xiao Ran, which may bring a lot of income to this small shop!
In this special situation, he needs such an income too much to allow the small shop to survive.
What worries him is that he is afraid that Xiao Ran will pick up a big leak here and rob himself fiercely!
I don’t know how many times this has happened before!
Those antique shopkeepers who were picked up by Xiao Ran were all in pain, and they all became the object of everyone’s sympathy!
After a few pleasantries, Xiao Ran began to look at the situation of this antique shop.
