Time passed quickly and four days had passed in a blink of an eye.
The clean-up of the underground palace of the Old North Church has been completed and all the stolen top antique artworks hidden there have been transferred to the banquet hall of the Battery Wharf Hotel.
That batch of antique firearms from the War of Independence, military uniforms and various metal fittings, antique cavalry swords and officers' swords, etc., were cleaned out and transferred to the hotel one after another.
As for other things of no value, they were thrown to the FBI and the Boston police, whatever they would do.
After these antique artworks arrived at the banquet hall, Ye Tian immediately arranged for them to be arranged, turning the banquet hall into a top-level museum exhibition hall.
Next, the FBI field investigation team entered the banquet hall and began the follow-up investigation and evidence collection.
As before, the Brave and Fearless Exploration Company's employees followed up simultaneously, supervised the work of the FBI field investigation team and filmed and recorded the entire process of investigation and evidence collection.
The investigation and evidence collection work was very smooth and fast. It took a little more than two days to complete the work and then the FBI on-site investigation team evacuated from there!
After that, this exhibition hall welcomed real visitors.
The first batch of visitors who lingered in this exhibition hall were museum curators, famous collectors, art brokers and senior figures from major art insurance companies from all over the world.
There are also some professionals in the field of antique art collection from Boston and several nearby cities, especially museum curators and well-known collectors!
These people come here to appreciate the charm of the top antique artworks and feel the madness of this largest art crime syndicate in the history of the United States, which has been hidden for 20 or 30 years in Boston!
Without exception, when they saw these top antique artworks displayed in the banquet hall, they were all stunned and exclaimed!
After the shock, each of them was fascinated in this exhibition hall and admired and walked among the top antique works of art, lingering and forgetting to sleep and eat!
While admiring these top antique artworks and feeling the extraordinary artistic charm, everyone is extremely envious of Ye Tian, their eyes are red and they want to replace him immediately!
This is a very small exhibition. Except for those related to this case, visitors are professionals in the field of antique art collection.
The exhibition caused a huge sensation in the circle, but the citizens of Boston didn't know the details. They only knew that the FBI had carried out a big operation near the Old North Church and nothing else!
With the transfer of these top antique artworks to the hotel, the Battery Wharf Hotel immediately became the most secure place in Bosto and with also the most police force, almost impervious like water!
The streets outside the hotel, the waters of Boston Bay facing the hotel and the sky above the hotel are mainly guarded by the Boston Police and the National Guard.
Entering the interior of the hotel, FBI agents in uniforms with live ammunition can be seen everywhere, all very vigilant and maintaining a high level of alert.
On the second floor, guarding outside the banquet hall were armed security personnel from Raytheon Security Company.
In addition to the ten people previously hired, Ye Tian transferred ten more security personnel from New York to guard the banquet hall in turn.
These guys are all special warfare elites from the battlefield, all of them are powerful enough to deal with any situation!
Under their guard, the security check for entering and exiting the banquet hall is extremely strict. No one wants to get in here, let alone steal any antique works of art.
The interior of the banquet hall is guarded by Matisse and the FBI art crime team agents. They also take turns on duty and supervise each other! There are no loopholes and no opportunities.
In addition to the security personnel inside and outside the exhibition hall, Ye Tian also put a lot of effort into high-tech security and he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to monitor every centimeter in the banquet hall.
Matisse and the others have arranged countless pinhole surveillance cameras in the banquet hall. Almost every antique artwork has a corresponding surveillance camera and there are no dead spots for surveillance!
And these antique works of art are connected to the top sensors, any movement, Ye Tian and Matisse will receive an alert and react quickly!
In addition, for safety's sake, Ye Tian swiped a big pen and threw out a cheque to wrap up all the North Building where the banquet hall of the Battery Wharf Hotel was located!
The guests who stayed in the North Building before were either invited to the South Building or went to other nearby hotels. Every guest left with a smile.
There was no other reason. Ye Tian gave a rather generous compensation. Naturally, these people had no opinion!
Later, a large number of guests moved in here in the North Building.
They are those museum curators and famous collectors, art brokers and representatives of major art insurance companies from all over the world.
Without exception, the expenses of these people living here are all calculated on Ye Tian's account.
After this operation, Ye Tian naturally paid a large amount of US dollars, but compared with the huge wealth he obtained, this amount of effort is not worth mentioning!
For Ye Tians practice of throwing money away, the Battery Wharf Hotel naturally raised their hands in favor and Anthony's heart hanging in his throat finally fell back into his stomach!
The exhibition in the Battery Wharf Hotel's Banquet Hall continued, but Ye Tian came to the FBI Boston branch to deal with some matters related to this case.
With him came David and Anderson, as well as Matisse and Walker.
At this time, they are in the FBI Boston branch meeting room, listening to Joey's briefing on the progress of the case.
"According to Andrew's account, we have captured a few more guys in Boston, New York and Philadelphia, either in charge of transportation or in charge of selling the stolen goods!
Without exception, these guys are all middlemen, just like Donald and the others, they are in contact with the boss by phone and they don't know the existence of Thompson and Andrew. They are all idiots!
In addition, there are two art brokers, whose work is similar to that of Tillerson. They are responsible for finding charity auctions suitable for selling stolen goods and then sending the disguised antique artworks for auction, etc."
"Hey! These guys have done business in New York. Why didn't I meet them before? If they did, I might have caught their fox tails long ago!"
Ye Tian joked and said, his expression was very relaxed.
"It's not too late to find out now! After catching these guys, most of the stolen top antique artworks that flowed out of their hands can be recovered smoothly and there is not much loss!"
Joseph went on to say, the old guy had a smug look on his face and his smile was brighter than a flower.
This shocking case was successfully solved and it has caused a huge sensation in the FBI system. Joseph naturally became the most beautiful assistant director of the entire FBI during this time.
As a result, his professional resume has been enriched! This is political capital! This is extremely important to him who is ambitious!
Joey is the same and the limelight is no different for a while! Quite a bit of the FBI star of tomorrow!
This is just the beginning and the moment this terrifying case is officially announced to the outside world will be their true pinnacle of life so far!
By then, countless praises will surely flood them, drowning them completely; the media's enthusiasm and frantic pursuit are also indispensable! It can definitely make them the most dazzling star in an instant.
That kind of feeling, thinking about it, makes people happy and crazy!
"Joseph is right. Through the confessions of these guys and the diary that records the records of the stolen goods, we are confident that most of the stolen antique artworks that have been sold can be recovered.
Is that diary hidden by you? Steven, we have been looking for two days! After using countless methods, we searched every centimeter of the wall and the ground of the secret path and only then did we find the hidden grid!
I don't think Thompson would hide the diary in that secret compartment. He didn't even know the existence of that secret compartment. How it looks like this was done by you? Am I right?"
Joey looked at Ye Tian and said, with a meaningful smile on his face and a bit of pride in his eyes.
Hearing this, Ye Tian suddenly felt bitter in his heart.
This bunch of FBI bastards, too much money!
Isn't it just a diary? Why for mobilizing dozens of hundreds of people to investigate in the secret path? And also use so many detection equipment?
If he knew this, he should burn the diary and see what they can do. It's a mistake!
Ye Tian murmured to himself, but what he said was something else.
"How is it possible! Joey, I don't think Thompson would transfer the diary, let alone to a secret grid. If I knew, I would tell you already! Why would I bother so much?"
He is not a foolish! Believe him to blame! He are a bastard who can't afford to be unprofitable, how could it be cheaper for their FBI?
Joey rolled his eyes directly and then returned to the subject.
"Don't talk about it! Let's talk about the case! Analyzing data from Andrew's shipping agency, Thompson's office and home, we have identified several art theft gangs.
Some of these art theft gangs are in the United States, some are in Europe and there is one in South America. They are all highly skilled and old thieves and many of them are well-known art thieves.
Many of them work on orders and earn commissions. The goal of each theft is very clear. From this, it can be seen that they probably don't know the existence of Thompson and Andrew.
We have notified the police department of the country where these art thieves are located and asked them to assist in the investigation and start the arrest work. I believe it will not be long before there will be good news..."
In the next time, Joey continued to report the progress of the case, and Ye Tian also talked about the affairs in the banquet hall of the Battery Wharf Hotel.
By the end of this meeting, it was already past three in the afternoon.
When bidding farewell to Joseph and the others and walking out of the meeting room to the elevator, Ye Tian said in a low voice and excitedly to the people around him:
"Guys, we can start harvesting wealth. Go back and slaughter those museum curators and famous collectors. Of course, we can't let go of those art insurance companies!"
"Hahaha, great! I finally waited for this moment!"
David laughed and said, extremely excited.
The other guys are the same, everyone is smiling very brightly.
At this moment, Ye Tian suddenly saw a few people walking towards him from the elevator. Among them, an elderly white woman and a young man were staring at him, their eyes full of anger and hatred!
