In the church.
Xiao Ran has finished arranging things and is discussing the upcoming exploration operation with Professor Baker and others.
At this moment, Sam, who was guarding the door of the church, suddenly said through the intercom:
"Sean, Professor Samuel from Harvard University and others came over and asked to enter the church and participate in the subsequent exploration operations."
"There are also several professors from MIT and Tufts. These guys are very determined. They are not allowed to enter the church and will just stand outside and waste it."
Upon hearing the report, Xiao Ran suddenly laughed.
Professor Baker and the others also smiled, but their expressions were helpless.
"When did these guys become scoundrels? They are a disgrace to Harvard and MIT."
Professor Julian said angrily.
Xiao Ran nodded, and then said jokingly:
"Obviously, Samuel and the others have received the news and know that we have made a major discovery."
"Someone in the joint exploration team must be tipping them off, so they are so well-informed."
As he spoke, he looked towards where the Yale University exploration team gathered, and his eyes finally landed on a doctoral student.
He just glanced at the guy and didn't point out what the other person did.
No need to ask, that guy is the mole who keeps secretly passing messages to Professor Samuel and the others.
Xiao Ran also knew the reason why that guy did this.
That guy will soon graduate with a Ph.D., and he wants to teach at the Harvard School of History, so that’s why he submitted his certificate of admission to Harvard!
Although he knew this, Xiao Ran had no intention of finding out the mole.
For him, having Harvard and MIT constantly causing chaos is not necessarily a bad thing!
In this case, it will put a certain amount of pressure on Yale University, making them afraid to play any tricks.
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Professor Baker's and others' expressions immediately changed, and their expressions were a little embarrassed.
They also realize that there is a mole, and that it is among the Yale University exploration team.
However, they don't know who the mole is.
This made them feel very depressed and itchy their teeth with hatred.
At this moment, Xiao Ran changed the subject.
"Gentlemen, I suggest that Professor Samuel come in and let them understand some of the situation, but they cannot enter the underground cracks to explore."
"In this way, the interests of Yale University are protected, and the temperature outside is very low. Professor Samuel and the others must not be frozen into ice sculptures while standing outside."
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter and everyone laughed.
When the laughter subsided, Professor Baker and others looked at each other, and then nodded in unison.
"Okay, Sean, let those shameless guys come in!"
"We are friends after all, we can't just watch them freeze to death outside!"
Following Professor Baker's words, the scene burst into laughter again.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ran picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Sam, let Professor Samuel and the others come in. As for others, they cannot enter this Gothic church. This exploration operation needs to be kept secret."
"Notify everyone to be vigilant. Now that the news has spread, it will definitely attract a lot of attention, and there must be some people with ulterior motives among them."
"In addition, the weather outside is very bad and the visibility is very poor, so we need to be extra careful and alert to prevent being plotted."
"Understood, Sean, we will be careful."
Sam responded and immediately ended the call.
After a while, under his leadership, Professor Samuel and others entered the Gothic church.
Due to the heavy snowfall, these guys were somewhat embarrassed.
However, each of their eyes shined with expectation.
While they were talking, Professor Samuel and the others were approaching.
Before they could stand firm, these guys said in unison:
"Sean, Baker, I heard that you discovered a very secret crack deep underground in this church. Please tell me about the situation. This is simply unbelievable!"
"This is the center of Boston. Who would have thought that there is an unknown underground crack here, which is related to the safety of the entire city."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, about to respond.
Professor Baker, who was standing aside, said angrily:
"Don't say it so high-sounding. Shouldn't you guys explain first who revealed this news to you?"
"You guys are so unreasonable. You actually planted spies in the joint exploration team. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Upon hearing this, Professor Samuel and others were stunned for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, the faces of several Harvard history professors turned red, somewhat embarrassed.
However, this kind of planting of spies must not be acknowledged!
That would be too derogatory and would harm the reputation of Harvard University.
"There's no such thing as a spy! Baker, stop being so suspicious."
"We heard other people talking about it, so we found out about it."
Professor Samuel denied it.
The flickering look in his eyes was enough to show that he was telling lies with his eyes open!
Before he finished speaking, Professor Baker was ready to refute the other party.
Xiao Ran stepped forward in time to smooth things over and began to introduce this major discovery.
"Okay, gentlemen, we don't have to worry about this matter anymore. We should pay more attention to this important discovery at the moment."
"Samuel, Julian, here's the thing, this discovery comes from a set of mysterious numbers that disappeared in 1859..."
Next, Xiao Ran briefly introduced how he discovered the underground crack under his feet.
He first introduced the findings in Faneuil Hall, including the set of mysterious numbers and the three-dimensional model.
Then he talked about the exploration in this small church.
During the introduction, he called Haipeng over and demonstrated how to use a three-dimensional model and the trajectory of the sun to determine where the treasure is buried.
Not surprisingly, Professor Samuel and the others were completely dumbfounded, and they were all dumbfounded.
At the same time, they kept exclaiming excitedly, as if they had discovered a new world.
After Xiao Ran finished the introduction, Professor Samuel and the others were stunned for a moment, and then said with emotion:
"Sean, you are so amazing. You can even discover such a secret. I can't believe it!"
"It seems that you are indeed God's favored one. If there is a chance in the future, I hope we can cooperate once more."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"Of course that's the best. I believe there will be opportunities for us to cooperate..."
While talking, Jack suddenly came over.
"Sean, the city government has responded and sent a large number of police officers to maintain order and ensure the smooth progress of this joint exploration operation."
"One more thing, the city government will organize a geological survey team to survey the underground cracks to see if there is any danger..."
Jack briefly introduced the situation.
After listening to the introduction, Xiao Ran thought for a moment, then nodded and said:
"No problem, we will cooperate with the geological survey team of the Boston City Government to explore the condition of this underground fissure."
Afterwards, he discussed a few words with Jack, and then began to discuss with Professor Samuel and others.
He clearly told Professor Samuel and others that they could stay at the scene, but they could not interfere with the actions of the joint exploration team.
If they want to participate in this joint exploration operation, they must obtain permission from the Yale University exploration team, otherwise they can only stay aside and watch.
How could Professor Baker and the others agree to allow these old rivals who had been fighting for their entire lives to participate in the follow-up exploration operations? Each of their heads was shaking like a rattle!
Faced with such a result, Professor Samuel and the others could only accept it.
While they were discussing these things, some members of the joint exploration team had been busy.
In a short time, they had set up two combined winches at the site and set up safety measures.
In addition, various auxiliary exploration equipment are also being continuously transported into this small church.
Outside the church, they also cleared an open space to store the excavated garbage and so on.
The actions outside the church were all seen by many onlookers and media reporters, and caused a wave of commotion.
In a matter of moments, the news that the joint exploration team had made a major discovery here had appeared on the Internet, reached the ears of countless people, and attracted countless attention.
While they were busy, the exploration team members and security team members who had gone out to order food drove back to the front of the church one after another.
They brought back cups of steaming coffee, pizza, steak, etc.
Next, everyone in the joint exploration team began to have lunch in the church.
Although this lunch was simple, everyone ate it with gusto.
In the blink of an eye, it was already around one o'clock in the afternoon.
Everyone has finished their lunch and is tidying up.
A large number of police officers sent by the Boston city government to support the Gothic church have been surrounded to avoid any accidents.
Seeing that everything was ready, Xiao Ran entered the live broadcast room and started the live broadcast.
Since I have already made a preview before, I briefly introduced the situation in the fan WeChat group.
Those night owl fans in China who are waiting to watch the live broadcast basically understand the situation.
As soon as Xiao Ran opened the live broadcast room, those guys rushed in impatiently.
In the blink of an eye, several live broadcast rooms were covered by barrages flying in the sky, like goose feathers and heavy snow outside.
Those who had voice permission rushed to start speaking.
"Xiao Ran, why are you always making surprise attacks lately? Do you want everyone to have a good sleep?"
"It looks like you'll have to stay up all night again tonight. Shouldn't you make up for it by giving your buddy a Kangxi Five-Colored Flower God's Cup?"
Beixinqiao Daniel Wu said jokingly.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately rolled his eyes angrily.
"I'm giving you a Kangxi Five-Colored Flower God's Cup. Do you want to eat it? Are you still awake and dreaming?"
Following his words, laughter suddenly erupted in the live broadcast room.
Immediately afterwards, he was not afraid of anything and said:
"Xiao Ran, I just read the introduction you posted in the WeChat group. Is there a colonial treasure you are looking for hidden in this underground crack?"
"Can you tell everyone what's in this colonial treasure? You must know some of the inside information about the treasure, but you just won't tell me."
Before he finished speaking, other fans also echoed.
"That's it, Xiao Ran, please tell me about the treasure!"
"When will you start exploring? Everyone is waiting to witness the miracle."
Hearing these words, Xiao Ran just smiled softly and did not respond immediately.
He took a high-definition camera and photographed the interior of the Gothic church, and finally pointed the camera at the cleared excavation site.
Then, he began to introduce the situation.
"Don't worry, everyone, we will start excavation operations soon, and then enter the mysterious underground crack to explore."
"It's hard to say whether the colonial treasures we are looking for on this trip are in this underground fissure. We will only know after exploring."
"But I can tell you one thing. This colonial treasure is most likely the countless antique artifacts and gold and silver treasures robbed by the British army from the North American Indians..."
Before he finished speaking, several live broadcast rooms exploded.
"What? The British guys robbed the gold, silver, treasures and antiques of the North American Indians. It seems like today is really an eye-opener!"
"Did I hear you correctly? Xiao Ran, did you use the word countless to describe it?"
"According to what you say, wouldn't the value of this colonial treasure be amazing?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"Yes, you heard it right,..."
While he was communicating with the fans in the live broadcast room, everyone at the scene looked at him.
Except for Fang Yufei and Haipeng, everyone else didn't understand Chinese, so naturally they couldn't understand what he was saying.
If they could understand it, they would probably have exploded by now.
Fang Yufei and the others, who could understand, froze on the spot with their mouths open.
