Xiao Ran looked at the FBI assistant director, then smiled and said:
"Director Frank, I will answer your question later and I will give you a convincing reason."
"Before that, let me introduce the situation first so that everyone can have a preliminary understanding of this multi-party cooperation."
"Neither you nor the Philadelphia police know much about this matter."
As he spoke, he nodded to several senior officials of the Philadelphia Police Department.
"That's right, let's introduce the situation first. We really want to know more about this matter."
"Since this incident happened in Philadelphia, as law enforcement officers in Philadelphia, we have this right and must maintain law and order in Philadelphia."
The Philadelphia Police Chief was very cooperative and nodded quickly in response.
The other top police officials also nodded in agreement.
At this time, they wanted to kick the FBI guys out of the conference room and cooperate with Xiao Ran alone to enjoy the amazing benefits.
Looking at those guys from the FBI, they are all gritting their teeth, but there is nothing they can do.
They saw very clearly that one of the reasons why Xiao Ran brought the Philadelphia police in was to check and balance the FBI and have one more choice!
If he chooses to cooperate only with the Philadelphia police, that's not impossible.
In that case, it is another way of cooperation.
He was able to escape smoothly afterwards and let the Philadelphia police and the FBI wrangle.
Several FBI representatives quickly looked at each other, quickly reached a consensus, and then nodded in unison.
"Okay, Mr. Sean, please introduce this matter. We also want to know the relevant situation."
Xiao Ran nodded and immediately began to introduce the situation.
"When we were exploring treasures in Boston, I took time to visit the Gardner Museum. During this period, I talked to Peggy about the robbery of the century that happened 30 years ago..."
Next, he briefly introduced some matters regarding the cooperation agreement reached with the Gardner Museum and the investigation in Boston.
Then he talked about leading a team to Philadelphia to conduct an investigation and reach a cooperation agreement with the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
During the introduction of the situation, Peggy and Timothy both confirmed and explained the situation.
The FBI Art Crime Team actually knew all these things, so they didn’t raise any objections and just listened!
Soon, Xiao Ran came to the key content.
“After careful investigation and on-site visits, combined with my professional knowledge and vision”
"We have identified two art thieves who looted the Gardner Museum 30 years ago and determined that they were most likely responsible for the two art thefts at the Philadelphia Museum of Art."
“Not only that, but many of the art thefts that have occurred in the United States and around the world in the past few decades were probably planned and implemented behind the scenes by these two art thieves!”
"According to my judgment, these two guys are probably the biggest art thieves in the world in recent decades, and they are also the most hidden and successful!"
"After confirming this, I called everyone here to prepare for cooperation and jointly uncover these two art thieves!..."
Before he finished speaking, the scene was completely fried.
"What? The biggest art thief in the world in recent decades, did I hear that right?"
"There are actually two top art thieves hiding in Philadelphia. Is it true?"
Representatives from the FBI and Philadelphia police, as well as Peggy and Timothy, all jumped up from their chairs as if they were electrocuted!
Their performances were all different, but all wonderful.
Peggy and Timothy's eyes were full of shock and disbelief, and their eyes were so wide that they almost flew out of their sockets!
The guys from the FBI and Philadelphia police were equally dumbfounded!
At the same time, their eyes quickly turned red, full of excitement and greed, which looked quite scary!
These guys knew very well that if Xiao Ran was right.
Once this shocking case is solved, it will definitely cause a huge sensation and bring very amazing benefits!
Regardless of political achievements or money, you will get it at your fingertips!
The reaction of everyone at the scene was completely as expected by Xiao Ran.
He chuckled softly and then looked at several FBI representatives.
"Director Frank, now I can give you a reason. It may not sound good to you, but it is the truth!"
"Thirty years have passed since the robbery of the century that occurred at the Gardner Museum, and you still have not been able to find the two art thieves who robbed the museum!"
"But it only took us less than a month to identify these two art thieves and determine that they are related to many art thefts."
"The arrest of these two top art thieves will surely shock the world, and it will be a win-win result for all of us!"
"In my opinion, the reasons for this cooperation are sufficient and convincing enough!"
Before he finished speaking, the faces of everyone in the FBI had changed. They all turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Not to mention how embarrassed they were!
While embarrassed, each of them was gnashing their teeth with hatred, their eyes were spitting fire, and they wished they could rush over and tear Xiao Ran to pieces.
Don't slap people in the face when you hit them, don't expose their shortcomings when you scold them!
You hateful bastard, you don't give me any face, you only expose our shortcomings, you are so damn hateful!
"Pfft!"
Someone at the scene finally couldn't help it and burst out laughing.
It was like a floodgate turned on and everyone else started laughing too.
Peggy and Timothy, the guys from the Philadelphia police, and David and Sam all couldn't help laughing!
In order to save the face of the FBI guys, they immediately lowered their heads as soon as they laughed.
But the laughter couldn't be stopped, everyone was shaking their shoulders with laughter!
Looking at the FBI guys, their expressions were even more embarrassing, and they almost dug a villa out of the ground with their toes!
After a while, the laughter stopped.
Immediately afterwards, Director Frank gritted his back molars and said:
"Mr. Sean, if things are as you say, this is indeed a reason for cooperation."
"But why should the FBI Art Crime Unit cooperate with you? Investigating art crimes is our job responsibility."
"As long as we carefully investigate your whereabouts after coming to Philadelphia, we should be able to find the two art thieves hiding in Philadelphia and capture those two guys!"
"In that case, why should we cooperate with your company and let your company lead this joint operation?"
Hearing this, Peggy and Timothy, as well as the Philadelphia police representatives, all had a look of contempt in their eyes!
But they also understand that what Frank said is absolutely right!
If they were put in the position of the FBI, they might do the same thing!
Who wants to share such a big good thing with others? What's more, you have to give out the fattest piece of fat!
Looking at Xiao Ran again, he chuckled leisurely.
"You are right, Director Frank. As long as you follow our whereabouts, I believe you will find the two top art thieves soon!"
"But the greater possibility is that you will alert the snake. It is no exaggeration. These two guys are one of the most cautious and cunning thieves I have ever seen."
"Once you alert them and allow these two guys to escape smoothly, you will never find them again in this life!"
"ah!"
There was an exclamation of exclamation at the scene, and representatives from the other three parties were all stunned.
Especially those guys from the FBI, their faces became much more solemn and uglier!
Xiao Ran glanced at these guys and then continued his performance.
"More importantly, even if you target these two art thieves and catch them successfully, you will still need sufficient evidence to convict them."
"I'm very sure that even if you catch these two art thieves, you won't be able to find any evidence. You will have to let them go after 24 hours."
"Next, these two guys will disappear from the world as soon as possible, and no one can find them again!"
"Only our company knows how to find evidence to convict these two art thieves, no one else knows."
"This is the reason why I invite you all to come here to discuss cooperation. Is this reason sufficient?"
After the words fell, the scene suddenly became quiet.
The FBI guys were all silent, lost in thought, their faces extremely ugly!
After a while, the head of the FBI Art Crime Team suddenly said:
"Sean, this is what you found when you went out alone that night, right? That's why you dare to say that."
Xiao Ran looked at this old friend with a smile, but did not give any response.
The next moment, the Philadelphia Police Commissioner interjected.
"Sean, if we, the Philadelphia police, cooperate with you, we can jointly arrest these two top art thieves."
"Where do the huge benefits that you said before come from for our Philadelphia police?"
Following his words, everyone looked at Xiao Ran.
Especially those from the FBI and Philadelphia police, everyone has greed shining in their eyes.
Xiao Ran looked at these guys and then gave the answer!
"It's very simple. These two top art thieves have at least tens of millions of dollars in rewards on their backs."
“In the past few decades, they have sold a large number of antique works of art, and their overall value is simply immeasurable!”
"You can be sure that these two guys are billionaires with a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, or even more than a billion dollars. They have a lot of money!"
"Wow! What kind of two guys are these? It's too exaggerated!"
There were exclamations in the conference room one after another.
While exclaiming, the eyes of the guys from the FBI and the Philadelphia Police became even redder!
After a pause, Xiao Ran continued:
"Their criminal proceeds may be stored in an international offshore financial center, such as Switzerland or Luxembourg."
"As long as these two art thieves are caught, all the proceeds of crime can be confiscated. I believe it will not be difficult for the FBI and Philadelphia police!"
"You can take the relevant documents and their criminal evidence and directly demand banks in certain offshore financial centers to hand over their illegal gains!"
"Not only that, you can also follow the trend and recover the antiques and art that have been sold by them, and find the buyers who collected the stolen goods."
"You should be clear about how to deal with the buyers who collect stolen goods next, as well as everyone in this chain."
"We can also dig out the numerous art theft and sales gangs scattered around the world and confiscate the illegal gains of those gangs. That is a bigger business!"
"I don't want any of the high rewards and criminal proceeds mentioned above. This huge wealth can be shared or handled by the FBI and Philadelphia police!"
"hiss!"
There was a gasp of air from the scene, and everyone was startled.
Sean, this bastard, is just like the legend. Even if he has no plans, he is also extremely ruthless and ruthless, killing everyone!
While they were terrified, the guys from the FBI and the Philadelphia Police were almost crazy with excitement!
In Xiao Ran's words, they saw countless green dollars and a huge golden mountain, waving to them!
The next moment, the Philadelphia Police Chief jumped up and said categorically:
"Mr. Sean, I have decided that the Philadelphia police can cooperate with your company and fully support this joint operation!"
"We accept all the conditions for cooperation you put forward, and we will do our best to protect your safety and interests."
Before Xiao Ran could respond, several other senior officials of the Philadelphia Police also stood up and gave the same answer!
The eyes of these guys are so red that they are almost bleeding, and they are full of madness!
Several FBI agents sitting next to them also stared with blood-red eyes, full of anxiety, fearing that the Philadelphia police would take advantage of them!
The performance of the top brass at the FBI was not much better!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran understood immediately.
In the face of huge interests that are enough to drive people crazy, neither the FBI nor the Philadelphia police are vulnerable!
He glanced at everyone present and said with a proud smile:
"Director Scott, I haven't finished speaking yet. Let's talk about cooperation after I finish speaking."
"I want to make a statement here. In this joint operation, I demand the right to dispose of all antique artworks."
"The ownership of some of the stolen antique artworks that are ownerless belongs to me, and I want to own half of the rights of the rest of the stolen antique artworks."
"Those antique artworks sold by two art thieves will also be handed over to our company for processing after they are recovered."
"Unowned antique artworks belong to me, and the remaining antique artworks will be disposed of according to the situation..."
With Xiao Ran's words, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more heated, even a little crazy!
