at dusk.

Xiao Ran just returned to the Plaza Hotel and still flew back by helicopter.

The medium-sized helicopter that sent him back was parked on the apron on the roof of the Plaza Hotel and did not fly away.

He has rented this medium-sized helicopter in case of emergency.

After being interviewed by the police, Sam and the others also returned to the hotel.

In today's fire incident, because they were acting in self-defense and had clear video evidence, they were able to escape easily without causing any trouble.

As for the valuable set of violins, after completing the appraisal and evaluation, Xiao Ran entrusted them to Bonhams Auction House for public auction.

After completing the relevant handover procedures, Xiao Ran was completely freed from this fetter and no longer had to be distracted by these treasures.

What follows is a series of restoration and conservation work, as well as previews and auctions.

It was all handled by Bonhams, and he just had to wait to collect the money.

Even if that set of violins is stolen or robbed, or some other accident occurs, such as being damaged during the repair process, etc.

The two art insurance companies that jointly underwrite the art will make high compensation.

In this case, Xiao Ran's interests were protected to the greatest extent and he would not suffer any losses.

Xiao Ran returned to the Plaza Hotel and brought back several portable safes.

He took people to fly to Goldman Sachs Bank again and took these safes out of the bank's vault.

The things contained in these safes are naturally valuable treasures.

As soon as he entered the presidential suite, he was surrounded by Elaine and the others.

Seeing that he was safe and unharmed, the three beauties breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a lot.

Then, Elaine asked with lingering fear:

"Dear, who are the robbers who ambushed you at the intersection of 23rd Street and Fifth Avenue today?"

"We saw the firefight on TV. Those guys were too crazy. Fortunately, they didn't succeed."

Xiao Ran looked at Elian, then smiled and said:

"I don't know who those guys are. The New York police are investigating the identities of those guys. I believe there will be results soon."

"Although those guys were crazy, they didn't take any advantage. Instead, they suffered heavy losses. We didn't lose much either..."

Next, he briefly introduced the situation.

Following his introduction, the three beauties all exclaimed in surprise and fear.

After he finished introducing the situation, Swifty and Fang Yufei were about to ask questions, but were interrupted by Xiao Ran.

He asked David and the others to take the portable safes they had brought back to the study, and then went back to their respective rooms.

Afterwards, he went straight into the bathroom and washed and disinfected.

After doing this, he returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa.

As soon as she sat down, Swift couldn't wait to say:

"Tell us more about what happened today. It's like an action movie. It's so exciting."

"When the Black Lives Matter movement parade passed downstairs, we stood at the window and watched. The scene was so spectacular, and the parade could not be seen to the end."

"And the scene was very chaotic. Fifth Avenue was destroyed by those guys. We saw with our own eyes that the LV store downstairs was looted."

"I didn't expect that your experience would be more thrilling. We were all shocked when we saw those tragic live scenes."

Xiao Ran looked at the super actress, then at Yi Lian and Fang Yufei, who were also curious, and then told the story vividly.

Next, he introduced what happened today from beginning to end to satisfy the curiosity of these three beauties.

During this process, there were constant exclamations in the living room.

The three beauties all exclaimed in surprise, their eyes so wide that they almost popped out.

While shocked, they also felt waves of fear, but they were also excited.

Their emotions fluctuated with Xiao Ran's introduction.

In the blink of an eye, it was already around eight o'clock in the evening.

After dinner, Xiao Ran called Sam and David to the study and started asking about the situation.

"Sam, have you found out who those guys who attacked the convoy on 23rd Street today are?"

"Are those guys related to Wilson and the others? Or someone else? I'm very curious about the identities of those guys."

"We Chinese are very particular about coming and going. After finding out their identities, I will give those guys a look."

Xiao Ran said coldly, with murderous intent in his words.

When he first discovered those guys on Fifth Avenue today, he turned on X-ray and turned around to take a quick look at those guys.

However, those guys were very cautious. They only had some fake documents on them and could not see any real identity information.

Even the cars they drove seemed to be stolen, and the relevant documents on the cars did not match the drivers.

Even so, Xiao Ran still discovered a lot of things.

He could tell right away from the looks and tattoos of those guys.

Those guys are basically Italian guys, most likely members of a mafia family.

Then there are those vehicles, which originally had New Jersey license plates.

Before taking action, those guys took off the license plate.

The only one or two original owner's papers in the car also indicate that they came from New Jersey across the river.

Although Xiao Ran failed to grasp the identity information of the robbers immediately, with the relevant videos taken, it was not difficult to find out the identities of those guys.

You know, almost all mafia members are registered with the police and have numerous criminal records.

With a little effort and money, you can get the answers you want from the police.

And that's exactly what happened.

Sam nodded and immediately began to introduce.

"We found out, Sean, that the group of robbers who tried to rob the convoy were members of a Mafia family in New Jersey, all from across the river."

"We have obtained the identities of those guys from the police. It is basically certain that those guys have nothing to do with Wilson and the others."

"It was mainly the Irish gangsters in Hell's Kitchen who worked with Wilson's crooks, not the Mafia in New York or New Jersey..."

With that said, Sam sent the information he had just collected to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran immediately took the Ipad and checked the information while listening to Sam's introduction.

In a short while, Sam had finished introducing the situation of this mafia family, including the situation of today's robbers.

Xiao Ran pondered for a moment, and then said in surprise:

"The reason why the Mafia family in New Jersey is targeting me is probably not just for that priceless set of violins!"

"Could this be related to the incident in San Francisco? You know, the various mafia families in the United States are very closely connected."

"The Pelos family is inextricably linked to the Baltimore Mafia, and Baltimore and New Jersey are very close."

"Don't even think about it. The Alejandro family in Baltimore must be related to the Mafia family in New Jersey."

Upon hearing this, both David and Sam's eyes suddenly lit up.

After thinking for a moment, David nodded immediately.

"It's really possible, Sean. You have video evidence of that scumbag Ryan, and the Pelos family may secretly deal with you."

"Because of the existence of those video evidences, the Pelos family cannot deal with you personally, otherwise they may get burned."

"However, you are currently in New York, and they are using the East Coast Mafia families to deal with you, but they can avoid suspicion."

"The Pelos family is famous for their greed. If they are really the masterminds behind the scenes, they must also be eyeing those priceless treasures."

Xiao Ran nodded, then sneered and said:

"Since this possibility exists, we must take precautions to avoid being plotted against!"

"David, send a message to the Pelos family lawyer you met last time and tell him tactfully."

"If I have a problem, some sensitive videos will appear in major news media in the United States and Europe."

"I believe they know very well what consequences and impact this will have, and let them make their own decisions."

"Okay, Sean, I'll pass the message on."

David nodded in response, but there was a bit of worry in his eyes.

Then, Xiao Ran looked at Sam again:

"Sam, tell me about today's firefight. Have you found those mafia scum who escaped?"

"One more thing, in order to prevent those scum from coming back for revenge, from now on, everyone must always be on high alert."

Sam nodded in response and then continued to introduce the situation.

"Since we were well prepared and were all riding in bulletproof SUVs, there were no major losses. Only two guys were slightly injured."

"The injuries of the two guys have been treated. There are no major problems. They don't even need to go to the hospital."

"As for those mafia scum, six were killed on the spot, three were seriously injured, and they all fell into the hands of the police."

"The police probably won't be able to find out anything from the mouths of those mafia scumbags. This is the consistent style of the mafia."

"There were four people who fled in the car. Those guys fled into Little Italy in lower Manhattan and then disappeared."

"Don't even think about it. Those guys must be hidden by some New York Mafia family. It's not easy to find them."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but sneered a few times.

"If possible, I really want to take a walk in Manhattan's Little Italy. Maybe I can find those scum."

"It's a pity that my current goal is too big. No matter where I go, there will be people sent by the FBI to follow me."

As he said that, he raised his finger and pointed out the window.

David and Sam understood instantly and both laughed.

At this time, downstairs of the Plaza Hotel, there were not only FBI agents watching, but also a group of detectives from the New York Police Department's Major Crime Division.

Inside the Plaza Hotel, FBI agents had already entered the hotel's control room and were closely watching the movements of the presidential suite.

In this case, unless Xiao Ran grew wings and flew out, it would be difficult to escape the eyes of those guys.
