“Good morning, guys”
After saying hello to the two Raytheon security guards at the door, Ye Tian and the others opened the door and walked into the banquet hall on the second floor of the hotel.
At this time, the banquet hall was extremely noisy and crowded.
There are dozens of uniformed, tough-looking FBI agents here, as well as many museum directors, famous collectors, art brokers, and representatives of major art insurance companies from all over the world.
A four-member team sent by the Historical Heritage Protection Advisory Committee of the Ministry of Interior also arrived here.
Coupled with the employees of his own company and several security personnel from Raytheon Company, more than a hundred people had gathered in the banquet hall.
After entering the door and standing still, Ye Tian first glanced at the scene, and then walked to the front of the hall with David and the others.
Within two steps forward, many people saw them and greeted them one after another!
“Good morning, Steven, you finally showed up, start taking action quickly, we can’t wait to get back those stolen antiques as soon as possible! We are looking forward to it!”
“Good morning, Mr. Reyes, please be patient! If nothing else happens, you will get your wish soon and see the two top works of art stolen from your museum!”
Ye Tian said hello with a smile, giving the old Spanish man reassurance!
“Good morning, Steven, when will we start taking action? We can’t wait a moment!”
“Good morning, Mr. René, the time is not yet certain, and it depends on the specific situation. But don’t worry, the warehouse where stolen antiques and artworks are hidden is always under surveillance and will never disappear out of thin air!”
Ye Tian nodded to everyone and walked forward quickly.
In addition to many museum owners, famous collectors and others paying attention to him, many FBI agents on the scene were also following him, but their eyes were not very friendly.
“What information does this **** Steven have? Even our FBI has to cooperate with his actions. I am really unwilling to be led by this bastard!”
“I don’t know, those guys from Washington are very strict and didn’t reveal anything, but what that **** Steven said when he greeted others seems to have something to do with stolen antiques and art!”
These FBI Boston agents who were talking in low voices were all randomly selected and did not know the purpose of this operation. They were naturally confused and full of doubts at this time!
This was specifically requested by Ye Tian, and the actions must be kept strictly confidential.
This is also the reason why we chose to deploy our operations here instead of in the FBI building!
After all, this is Boston, the home base of Thompson’s gang, so you can’t be too cautious.
Soon, Ye Tian and the others walked to the front of the banquet hall.
After greeting everyone, Ye Tian went to Joey from the FBI Art Crime Group and asked:
“Why don’t you see Lucas? He is the director of the FBI’s Boston branch. He is indispensable for this operation. The location of the operation is very sensitive and he needs to coordinate the relationship!”
“Lucas is currently staying with several FBI bomb disposal experts. The special vehicles of the bomb disposal team are not suitable to appear here. It will cause panic among the people.
He also needs to coordinate with the Boston police and ask the police to cooperate in the operation, so he did not come here. Once the operation starts, he will definitely lead people to the scene as soon as possible, and there will be no delay! “
Joy explained the reason, which was reasonable.
“I see, this arrangement is not bad, just don’t miss anything!”
Ye Tian responded without paying too much attention to this matter.
He is not worried about whether Lucas will leak the secret. Only when Thompson enters the underground palace will he reveal the final answer and start the arrest operation!
At that time, even if Lucas wanted to tip off, Thompson had no cell phone signal, so he had no chance of receiving the warning message, so he had no choice but to get caught!
After chatting for a while, Joey took Ye Tian a few steps to the side and introduced an old white man in his fifties to him.
“Steven, this is Judge William, from the Boston Superior Court. Before the official action, he will sign four search warrants live here!”
“Good morning, Mr. Judge, I am Steven, nice to meet you!”
Ye Tian shook hands with the other party and introduced himself.
“Good morning, Steven, it’s nice to meet you too, but did you go too far today? Do you need to be so cautious?”
William said hello, and then asked in confusion.
Obviously, Joseph and Joey concealed some information when they invited the judge to come, otherwise he would not have had this question!
“It seems Joey and the others haven’t told you that this case involves not only a large number of stolen top antiques and art, but also a lot of arms, including a lot of powerful C4 explosives!
Faced with these terrifying things, I think you can never be too cautious, right? In addition, the status of the person involved in the case is very special and his influence cannot be underestimated, so I am so cautious! “
Ye Tian explained the situation. There is no need to hide this person at this time!
“Ah! There are actually a large number of C4 explosives! It’s simply terrifying!”
Judge William’s expression changed drastically and he immediately exclaimed.
Several other people nearby also exclaimed in low voices, obviously frightened.
Hearing their voices, everyone in the banquet hall looked over. Many people’s eyes were full of curiosity, and they didn’t understand why they were exclaimed!
“Gentlemen, please control your emotions, this information will remain confidential for the time being!”
Ye Tian lowered his voice and said so as not to cause more commotion.
These people quickly controlled their emotions, but their expressions were extremely solemn, and their eyes were still filled with fear, which they couldn’t hide at all!
In the following time, people kept coming and entering the banquet hall.
By around nine o’clock, all relevant museum directors, famous collectors, art brokers, and representatives of major art insurance companies have arrived here.
Everyone has gathered and the show can begin at any time!
During this period, Ye Tian went back to the presidential suite upstairs, said goodbye to Betty, and asked her to stay in the hotel and take care of the logistics.
Then we went to the temporary intelligence center to learn about the latest monitoring situation, arrange follow-up work, and be ready to go at any time.
Mattis and the others are the same, they are all ready and ready to go.
Later, when the operation officially begins, they will set off directly from the banquet hall without going back upstairs, which saves a lot of trouble.
At nine-thirty in the morning, everyone walked into the banquet hall again.
Under the leadership of Jason, the rest of the company’s employees have arrived here.
Each of them put on the prepared white work clothes, which were uniformly printed with the words and logo of the Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company. They were neat and uniform and looked quite impressive.
As Ye Tian requested, everyone’s clothes are equipped with walkie-talkies and micro cameras, but they are not turned on yet and will be put into use soon!
In addition, each of them basically has a metal trolley suitcase, some big or small!
Contained in these boxes are various tools and equipment, such as dust-proof gloves, professional painting tubes, tools for disassembling picture frames, portable safes, etc., which will be used later!
At the beginning of the operation, these company employees will not go to the Old North Church immediately, but will stay here.
They will not set off until they capture or kill the old guy Thompson, disarm the deadly trap in the corridor, remove all weapons and explosives from the underground palace, and confirm that it is completely safe.
Entering the banquet hall, Ye Tian first greeted the several museum directors and collectors who had just arrived, and then went to the area where the company’s employees were.
Seeing them coming, many company employees immediately gathered around and asked:
“Steven, can you tell us the goal of this treasure hunt now? Everyone is so curious!”
“This scene is too exaggerated! Boss, there are so many FBI agents involved in the operation. What kind of treasure is it? It is worth such a big fight!”
Everyone was asking questions, and everyone was curious and very excited!
“Yes! It’s time to reveal the answer, so that everyone will not continue to be tortured by curiosity, but the matter is more complicated and it is difficult to explain it in one or two sentences!
Please wait patiently. It only takes two or three minutes. Either I or someone from the FBI will explain everything to you on the stage in front.”
Ye Tian said with a smile, temporarily calming the curious guys.
After chatting with everyone in the company for a while, Ye Tian and David turned around and walked towards several other people not far away.
The identities of these people are quite special. They are neither FBI agents nor people in the field of antique art collection, nor are they employees of the Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company!
They are a special reporting team from NBC TV station, invited by Ye Tian to report on this treasure hunt!
This special reporting team has a total of seven people, carrying a lot of equipment, including cameras, microphones, lighting equipment, etc. The equipment is being set up at this time, very quickly and very professionally!
The NBC television headquarters is also located in Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, within easy reach of Ye Tian’s company.
The day before leaving New York, Ye Tian directly approached the relevant person in charge of NBC TV station and prepared to sell the TV broadcast rights of the treasure hunt to NBC TV station.
He knows better than anyone what level of sensation this treasure hunt will cause. It will definitely be a tsunami level! The United States and even the whole world will be shocked by it! no doubt!
Because of this, the television broadcast rights of this treasure hunt have become extremely valuable and attractive, and there is almost no problem in selling them for a sky-high price.
Although selling TV broadcast rights will definitely make a fortune, it is nothing compared to the stolen top antiques, and is not even worth the value of a famous painting.
But no matter how small the ants are, they are still meat, so of course we cannot give up easily!
Ye Tian’s asking price naturally followed his usual ruthless style. He unceremoniously offered a sky-high price!
$20 million!
