After dealing with many media reporters, Ye Tian and the others left the Florence Police Station in a car and went straight to the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
Behind and behind their convoy, there were three police cars with flashing lights, responsible for opening the road and protecting them to avoid another accident that would ruin Florence, the capital of art.
There are several police officers with live ammunition sitting in each police car. They are all on high alert as if they are facing a powerful enemy.
Of course, those media reporters who were worried about the chaos in the world also drove up to follow. Everyone was extremely excited, and even looked forward to another fierce fight with bad intentions.
As soon as the motorcade left the Florence Police Station, Ye Tian immediately said through the invisible earphone:
“Cole, find a restaurant near the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. It’s lunch time. Let’s go have lunch first, and then visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore”
“Got it, Steven”
Cole’s voice came from the earphones and responded.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian took out his mobile phone and called Kenny in New York.
The call was connected instantly, and Kenny’s voice came over immediately.
“Steven, have you left the Florence Police Department?”
“We have left the police station and are on the way to the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers. Tell us about what I asked you to investigate. Have you learned anything?”
“Okay, Steven, based on the names of the two Gypsy gunmen you provided, we have found out the Gypsy gang to which those two scumbags belong, as well as several major strongholds of that gang.
Through the names and mobile phone numbers of those two scumbags, we followed the clues and successfully found the mobile phone numbers, names and addresses of the boss of the Gypsy gang and all other members.
We monitored the cell phone of the Gypsy gang boss and learned through monitoring that the Florence police had launched an operation and raided several strongholds of the gang, but found nothing.
The Gypsy gang had received the news a long time ago and they all hid in a secret hiding place. The location was unknown to the Florence police and was not too far from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
Later, I will send you all the information about that gypsy gangster, so that you can follow the map and send those scumbags to hell, or use the help of the police to get rid of those scumbags.
The same goes for the Casamonica family’s peripheral legion. They were also raided by the Florence police. Several places were raided, but the mafia scum were not caught.
By monitoring the mobile phone signals of those mafia scumbags, we learned that those guys had sent a request for help to the family in Rome and reported in detail the latest situation here.
But whether Rome will send people to Florence to support this peripheral legion is temporarily unknown. The mobile phone number in Rome cannot be monitored, and it has obviously been modified for anti-monitoring.
The remaining scumbags from Florence’s outer legion are all hiding at this time. We are determining their locations one by one based on their mobile phone numbers and have already discovered something.
It won’t be long before we can find all those scumbags and locate them one by one. By then, the life and death of those mafia scumbags will depend on your thoughts.”
“Well done, Kenny, continue to monitor those mafia scum and that gypsy gangster, keep an eye on those scum’s every move, and notify me immediately if you find anything”
Ye Tian sneered and whispered, with fierce murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
After chatting for a few more words, Ye Tian hung up the phone and ended the call.
Ten minutes later, the motorcade drove near the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers and stopped in front of an Italian restaurant.
At this time, the area around the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers was deserted. There were not many pedestrians or tourists at all, and it looked very deserted.
At a glance, what everyone saw the most was the Florence police officers patrolling with live ammunition. Each of them was on high alert, watching the surrounding situation vigilantly.
Besides the police, the majority of people on the street were media reporters. These guys were all extremely excited, holding up cameras and video cameras in their hands and filming non-stop.
After the convoy came to a stop and the scene was safe, Ye Tian took Betty out of the car and walked into the Italian restaurant under the protection of Cole and the others.
Following them, Anderson and Taylor also walked into the Italian restaurant, preparing to have lunch.
By the time the group of them walked out of the Italian restaurant, it was already past two-thirty in the afternoon.
After leaving the restaurant, Ye Tian and the others chose to walk instead of taking a car. They laughed and chatted as they walked towards the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers, looking like other tourists.
However, in the eyes of everyone else on the street, especially the heavily armed Florence police, their group can be said to be the most dangerous and cruel tourists who have ever seen them!
At this time, light rain was still falling, and the weather became cooler.
There were still few pedestrians and tourists in the square in front of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the surrounding area. Police and reporters from major news media were everywhere.
These media reporters have already learned that Ye Tian and the others will come here to visit, so they came here to wait and see, maybe they can get some breaking news.
Those media reporters who followed Ye Tian and others from the police station took advantage of their lunch break to take a seat at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers, waiting for Ye Tian and others to arrive!
Walking to the edge of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers and seeing the deserted scene in the square in front of the cathedral, Ye Tian immediately joked:
“Guys, it seems that we are going to enjoy a VIP treatment. This afternoon, the Cathedral of Our Lady of Santa Maria del Fiore, the fourth largest cathedral in the world, will be opened exclusively for us. This opportunity is so precious!”
As they spoke, the group of them walked onto the square in front of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, then stopped, raised their heads and began to admire this landmark building in Florence and the most beautiful church in the world.
In this world, there are many solemn and majestic churches, such as Cologne Cathedral in Germany, St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, Milan Cathedral in Milan, etc.
However, a church as stunningly beautiful and charming as the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is unique. It is the only one in the world.
This beautiful church, veneered with white, red and green granite, fully and unparalleledly interprets the classicism, elegance and freedom advocated by the Renaissance!
And this is why it is called the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flowers.
The original site of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is the Church of Sant Reparata built in the fourth century.
In 1296, Cosimo di Giovanni de’ Medici funded the construction of a new church. It took 175 years to finally complete it and named it the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
The architect who designed and presided over the construction of this famous church was Brunelleschi, who was known as a talented architect. He imitated the Pantheon in Rome and designed and built the dome of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
This is a perfect combination of classical art and science. When it first came out, it caused a huge sensation, and even the Pope at the time was amazed and called it ‘like a myth’.
To this day, the huge dome of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is still a great miracle in the history of architecture, breathtaking and even jaw-dropping!
Even the great Michelangelo, after imitating it and designing St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, lamented with regret that ‘it can be built bigger than it, but it cannot be more beautiful than it’.
The most incredible thing is that Brunelleschi completed the design without drawing a sketch or writing down a set of calculation data, as if the entire dome had been built in his mind.
As the designer of this great building, Brunelleschi was buried here after his death, and his tomb is under the church.
In the square in front of the church, his statue points to the magnificent dome of the church, as if he is introducing his masterpiece to the world with great pride.
The interior of the dome of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is the dome painting “The Last Judgment” painted by Vasari, and the mural “Monument to Giovanni Agutto” is on the wall of the hall.
In addition, the church also has “Dante and the Divine Comedy” painted to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Dante’s birth, and other reliefs abound.
Climb the 463 steps on the north side of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore to reach the top of the church’s dome, where you can overlook the beautiful street view of the entire old town of Florence.
At this time, Ye Tian and the others were standing in the square in front of the church, admiring this extremely beautiful and famous church. Everyone was fascinated.
