About twenty minutes later, Sam's voice suddenly came from the intercom.
"Sean, all action teams are in place and ready to launch arrest operations at any time."
After hearing the announcement, Xiao Ran immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"Copy that, Sam, wait for my order before taking action, pay attention to safety"
“When we walk into McCann’s gallery, it’s hands-on time”
"After receiving the order, all teams took action immediately"
"Especially that guy Miles, we must control him immediately and not let him make any moves."
"One more thing, don't touch anything at the target locations. Just control the scene and wait until I get there before starting the search."
As soon as the words fell, Sam responded immediately.
"Understood, Sean, I will notify each action team and launch operations according to the established plan."
After ending the call, Xiao Ran immediately turned to look at the people around him.
At this time, Peggy, Timothy, Scott, Frank and others were standing around him.
To facilitate movement, Frank, Scott and others all wore black coats, covering their FBI uniforms and police uniforms.
Many FBI agents and police detectives who followed Xiao Ran also made some disguises to cover up their actions!
Under their black coats, they are all fully armed and can reveal their identities at any time and start arresting them.
As for Marvin and the others, they acted in their true colors and did not need to disguise themselves at all.
Xiao Ran glanced at everyone present, then smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, let's go to that guy McCann's gallery and see how many stolen top-level works of art are hidden in that gallery."
"Director Frank, Director Scott, after we enter the gallery and take control of McCann, immediately ask your people to seal off the block where the gallery is located."
"Okay, Sean, our people are ready and can come at any time."
Frank and the others nodded in agreement, their eyes shining with excitement.
For them, this may be a day of making a fortune, can they not be happy?
After a few words of warning, Xiao Ran took these guys into the car and officially started the operation.
Immediately afterwards, the bulletproof motorcade drove straight into the street where McCann Gallery is located.
At this time, the street was filled with plainclothes police and FBI agents, secretly controlling every intersection and keeping an eye on all pedestrians and vehicles on the street.
The atmosphere on the street has also changed, becoming a bit tense, but it is not particularly obvious and ordinary passers-by cannot detect it at all.
The arrival of Xiao Ran and the others immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Many people here know this bulletproof convoy and know who is in it.
"Fake! That greedy bastard Sean is here again, probably to raid antiques and art!"
"Who says it's not the case? Every time this bastard comes, some galleries and antique shops are looted. I wonder which unlucky guy's turn it will be this time?"
While people were talking about it, they didn't find anything wrong.
In the blink of an eye, the motorcade was approaching McCann's gallery.
As the motorcade arrived, some people immediately came out from several cafes and restaurants on both sides of the street, as well as from two cars parked on the roadside.
As soon as these guys appeared, they nodded slightly towards the convoy, and then walked towards the entrance of McCann's gallery from all directions.
While talking, the motorcade had arrived at the entrance of the gallery and stopped end to end.
Marvin and the others immediately got out of the car and spread their guard.
After confirming that the scene was safe, Xiao Ran took David and the others out of the car and walked straight into the gallery.
Timothy, Peggy, and Frank who followed did not follow, but stayed in the car, waiting for the signal to enter the gallery!
Their identities are too sensitive. Once they appear, they will definitely shock that guy McCann, and it may cause some accidents!
In order to ensure that this operation was foolproof, they did not get out of the car immediately.
Following Xiao Ran, in addition to Marvin and David, there were also several agents from the FBI Art Crime Unit, as well as the leader of the Philadelphia Police Major Crime Unit and his subordinates.
Just as Xiao Ran and the others got off the bus, the electronic communication signals in the neighborhood where the gallery was located were instantly cut off, completely cutting off contact with the outside world.
In other locations where operations and arrests took place, the same plot was played out, with little difference!
Under the leadership of Sam, the second operation team rushed directly into Miles's music store and launched an arrest operation!
In the residential area on the other side of the Schuylkill River, the fifth and sixth operation teams rang the doorbells of two villas one after another.
In several other places, all the arresting officers also launched operations at the same time.
In the gallery.
When Xiao Ran and the others walked into the gallery, McCann greeted them at the door with a smile on their faces.
Seeing a few unfamiliar faces suddenly appearing around Xiao Ran, this guy couldn't help but froze for a moment, and the smile on his face froze!
Before he could react, Xiao Ran said with a smile:
"Good afternoon, McCann, I'm here again in your gallery."
"I'd like to introduce you to some new friends from the FBI Art Crime Unit and the Philadelphia Police Department's Major Crimes Unit."
Before he finished speaking, several FBI agents and detectives from the Major Crime Squad quickly stepped forward, quickly surrounded McCann, and controlled the guy.
Several other FBI agents and homicide detectives in plainclothes rushed towards the gallery employees who were stunned and quickly controlled those guys.
There were also some FBI and police agents who quickly rushed to the stairs, went to the second floor and basement of the gallery, and controlled those places and people.
Marvin and the others who were following Xiao Ran didn't make any move, they just maintained a high alert state.
Looking at that guy McCann, his face instantly turned pale, his eyes were full of fear, and he seemed a little unbelievable.
He originally wanted to run away, but before he could turn around, he was surrounded by several agents, so he had to give up this unrealistic idea!
More than 30 years later, he is no longer the young man who ransacked the Gardner Museum with Miles, but an old man in his early sixties.
Decades of pampered life have also worn away the courage and courage he once had.
How can he escape from this dragnet-like arrest now?
The next moment, the head of the FBI Art Crime Team took off his coat, revealing his FBI uniform.
The guy immediately stepped forward, took out the search warrant and started reading it.
"Mr. McCann Wilson, you are suspected of robbing the Gardner Museum in Boston in 1990 and the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1998 and 2005."
"It is subject to a joint investigation by the FBI Art Crime Unit and the Philadelphia Police. This is a search warrant signed by the prosecutor. You can assert your rights..."
While the head of the FBI Art Crime Team read out the search warrant, McCann gritted his teeth and stared at Xiao Ran, his eyes blood red, full of anger and hatred!
As soon as the search warrant was read out, the guy gritted his molars and said:
"Sean, I don't understand why you would join forces with the FBI Art Crime Unit and the Philadelphia Police to target me?"
"What I don't understand even more is why a super rich man like you would become a lackey of the FBI and the police?"
Xiao Ran looked at this guy, then smiled and said:
"I want to explain one thing, McCann. I have a cooperative relationship with the FBI Art Crime Unit and the Philadelphia Police. The FBI is not qualified to let me work for them!"
"As for why I want to mess with you, I believe you also understand the principle of 'the common man is not guilty, but the one who carries the treasure is guilty'!"
"What's more, you are a top art thief who has been in the world for decades. I believe you have been mentally prepared for such an ending."
After finishing speaking, he turned to Marvin and said:
"We can let Frank and Peggy in. The scene is safe and all suspects are under control."
"Let Frank and the others mobilize their manpower to control this neighborhood!"
"Got it, Sean"
Marvin nodded in response and immediately turned around and walked out the door.
At this moment, a frustrated McCann spoke up again:
"Sean, can I make a few calls? To the family and the lawyer?"
"This is my right, and no one has the right to take it away, including you!"
Xiao Ran looked at this guy, nodded with a smile and said:
"Of course there is no problem, McCann, but not now. The electronic communication signals in this neighborhood have been completely cut off by the FBI!"
"Only when the communication signal is restored can you call your family, your lawyer, and that guy Miles."
"Actually, you don't have to think about informing that guy Miles. At this moment, he should also be arrested!"
Upon hearing this, McCann's face suddenly became bloodless, as white as paper!
This guy's eyes were filled with despair for an instant, his legs softened, and he almost collapsed on the ground.
Fortunately, the two FBI agents controlling him reacted quickly enough and quickly reached out to hold him!
Not only that, several detectives quickly searched his body to avoid hiding any weapons.
At this moment, Sam's voice suddenly came from the earphones.
"Sean, we've got that Miles guy, but someone's injured."
"It was a guy from the FBI who was shot and wounded by Miles."
"That guy Miles was also shot twice, but fortunately it wasn't serious!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran took out the walkie-talkie directly from his coat pocket and turned on the speaker.
Immediately afterwards, he said through the intercom:
"Copy that, Sam, hand that Miles guy over to the FBI and the Philadelphia police, they are the law enforcers."
"Just control the scene and don't allow anyone to touch anything to avoid accidents!"
"Got it, Sean"
Sam responded, ending the call.
Immediately afterwards, several other arrest teams reported the situation one after another.
Not surprisingly, they all completed their tasks successfully and controlled the relevant people and places without any problems!
Listening to the news coming from the walkie-talkie, the despair in McCann's eyes became more and more intense, his eyes were blood red, and blood was almost flowing out!
This guy knew very well that he and Miles had been living happily for more than thirty years, and today they finally fell into trouble!
But he never imagined that he would fall into the hands of Xiao Ran, who was completely unrelated to him!
What made him even more confused was why he and Miles fell into trouble?
What exactly went wrong and exposed the flaw? This is simply impossible!
Just as this guy was racking his brains to guess, Frank and Peggy had already walked into the gallery and walked straight this way!
The first time he saw these guys, McCann's face turned pale!
He recognizes all these guys, and he knows more clearly what the appearance of these guys means!
On the street outside the gallery, a shrill siren suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of police cars, heavily armed police and FBI agents flooded into the street and quickly sealed off the neighborhood and controlled it!
