After chatting for a while, Xiao Ran looked at the wall to the right of the iron gate.
In front of that wall stood a cabinet about 60 centimeters wide and one meter high.
There is a tempered glass door outside the cabinet, and some tools and electronic equipment are placed inside.
Some of the electronic devices are in working order and the indicator lights are flashing.
On the wall above the cabinet, there is a realistic landscape oil painting hanging.
No need to ask, that's another piece of stolen art.
Xiao Ran glanced at the situation over there, then smiled and said:
"Have you seen the cabinet inside the iron door? That should be the control center of this underground space."
"The equipment that controls the infrared alarm devices, as well as various sensing equipment and constant temperature and humidity systems should be in there."
"As long as the corresponding electronic equipment is turned off, the danger will be eliminated, and everyone can enter this underground space."
Hearing this, Frank and the others on the ground suddenly lit up with excitement.
The next moment, Timothy said impatiently:
"Sean, please turn off those infrared alarm devices quickly. Everyone wants to go down and take a look."
"The antique art hidden in this underground shelter is so amazing, it's a huge treasure."
Before he finished speaking, Peggy and the others also echoed.
Xiao Ran smiled softly, then nodded and said:
"Gentlemen, don't worry, I want to take a look at the situation in that cabinet first."
“I can’t turn some of those electronic devices off until I’ve determined their functionality.”
As he said that, he looked at the ground at his feet and started to explore it pretending to be serious.
In fact, apart from the two Vulcan cannons, Miles did not set any other traps in this hall.
After making sure that the ground was safe, Xiao Ran walked towards the cabinet inside the door.
In a few steps, he had arrived in front of the cabinet and checked the door.
There is no mechanism or lock on the cabinet door.
Xiao Ran immediately opened the cabinet door and looked inside the cabinet.
As seen before, there are a lot of electronic equipment here, as well as some remote controls and other equipment and tools.
Some of the electronic devices are in working order and the indicator lights are flashing.
Other electronic devices are turned off.
The remote control placed in the cabinet is mainly the remote control for the constant temperature and humidity system equipment.
In a moment, Xiao Ran had quickly scanned these things.
Then, he said to Nick and others outside the door:
"Nick, I'm going to turn off the infrared alarm device now."
"After closing, check to see if the infrared rays in the corridor are still there."
Before he finished speaking, Nick had already responded.
"Copy that, Sean."
The next moment, Xiao Ran directly turned off the control equipment of several infrared alarms.
Within a moment, Nick responded.
"Sean, the infrared alarm in the corridor has been turned off."
After hearing the announcement, Xiao Ran immediately continued:
"Okay, Nick, go to the entrance of the corridor, pick up Frank and Peggy, and check the other infrared alarms by the way."
"The rest of the people can enter this shelter. After entering, please don't touch anything here casually."
With that said, he walked to the inside of the iron door and pushed the iron door completely open.
Immediately afterwards, Marvin and the head of the FBI Art Crime Team and others entered the underground shelter one after another.
Xiao Ran's backpack placed outside the door was also brought in by Marvin.
Without exception, these guys were extremely excited and their eyes were shining.
When they saw the situation in this underground shelter, they were all shocked and froze on the spot, dumbfounded.
Nick walked back along the corridor to meet Peggy and the others.
Xiao Ran looked at Ma Wen and the others who were stunned, and then said through the intercom:
"Gentlemen, the space in this underground shelter is limited. Too many people cannot come down at one time, otherwise it will be too crowded."
"Frank, Peggy, Scott, Timothy, and one more lawyer, you can come down first, and the rest will come later."
Before he finished speaking, Frank and the guys couldn't wait to respond.
"Okay, Sean, we're coming down."
The other appraisal experts and others who couldn't come down immediately all sighed.
In the shelter, Marvin and the others woke up.
The next moment, there was an exclamation of exclamation from the scene.
"Oh my God! This is like an underground treasure house, it's incredible!"
"It's hard to imagine how many antiques and art pieces those two guys Miles and McCann stole to fill such a treasure trove?"
While exclaiming, these guys were also looking at the antique artworks displayed in this hall.
Two experts from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Gardner Museum quickly identified some of the stolen antiques.
"That is Van Gogh's painting, "Country Church". It was stolen in the Netherlands eight years ago. Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of Miles and the others."
"The abstract bronze sculpture on the wall comes from the Pennsylvania State University Museum and is the work of the master sculptor Pevsner."
Seeing that they instantly recognized several pieces of stolen antique art, Xiao Ran couldn't help but look at them and nodded.
Then, he smiled and said:
"Guys, there are no traps in this small hall. You can stay here and enjoy these stolen antiques and artworks."
"But it's best not to touch them to avoid leaving fingerprints or any accidents. The evidence collection work has not been completed yet."
"You can only go there after I have finished exploring other places in this underground shelter and made sure it is safe."
Naturally, no one objected to his words.
"No problem, Sean, we follow the rules and know what to do."
"There is no doubt that the discovery of this underground treasure house will definitely cause a huge sensation."
The head of the FBI Art Crime Unit nodded.
At this time, this guy was so excited that he almost flew up.
In his eyes, behind most of the stolen antiques and artworks here is a large amount of money.
The money includes high bounties, as well as money looted from corresponding art thieves and gangsters.
Next, everyone began to appreciate the many antique artworks displayed here.
It is not yet known what is going on in the other rooms of the shelter.
Xiao Ran was not in a hurry to check the other rooms, but just looked towards the corridor.
In a moment, Nick's voice came from the intercom.
"Sean, Frank and Timothy are all down. I'll take them over right now."
"Okay, I'll wait for them here"
Xiao Ran responded.
At this moment, Elaine's voice suddenly came from the intercom.
"My dear, Pierre and the others are here. I'll go out to pick them up."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately said through the intercom:
"Okay, dear, tell Pierre that they can only enter two people in each museum."
"After entering the music store, let them stay in the basement and watch the live video with you."
"Sam, take someone to accompany Elaine to pick up Pierre and the others, and verify everyone's identity."
As soon as the words fell, Elaine and Sam responded immediately.
At the same time, Frank and Peggy have also entered this underground shelter.
At this time, these guys' faces were full of shock, and their eyes were almost exhausted.
When they entered the shelter and saw the situation in the hall, they were stunned.
Their eyes were so wide that they almost popped out.
"Oh my God! This place is simply a treasure house of art. It's so shocking!"
Peggy murmured to herself, her old face flushed with excitement.
The eyes of these two guys, Frank and Scott, instantly turned red, full of greed.
Seeing the exaggerated looks of these guys, Xiao Ran couldn't help but chuckle.
"Gentlemen, you can now appreciate these stolen antique works of art."
"I'm going to check the situation in the corridor and several other rooms. After making sure it's safe, everyone can come back."
Following his words, Frank and the others immediately woke up.
Immediately afterwards, these guys let out a series of exclamations.
"Oh my God! These two guys, Miles and McCann, are so crazy. They actually hide so many top-notch antiques here."
"What did I see? Dali, Van Gogh, Vlaminck, Cellini, Pollock, they are all top-notch works of art, and each one is worth a lot of money."
Xiao Ran smiled softly and then continued:
"That's right, the stolen antiques and artworks hidden here are all of top quality."
"Given the way Miles and McCann act, if they are not top-notch antiques and works of art, they probably won't be interested in them either."
Upon hearing this, Peggy immediately nodded with deep sympathy.
"Yes, these two guys have really high vision."
"As early as 30 years ago, when they looted our museum, they set the tone of stealing antique art."
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter and everyone laughed.
After chatting for a few more words, Xiao Ran walked towards the corridor, preparing to check the situation in other rooms.
Timothy walked towards the Pollock painting and was busy checking whether the painting was damaged.
As for Frank and Peggy, they spread out and admired the many antique works of art displayed in this hall.
The door of the piano store.
Elaine and the others who came out to greet them had already joined Pierre and others who had just arrived.
After meeting and greeting, Elaine immediately told the French guys about Xiao Ran's request.
For these requests, Pierre and the others could only nod and accept.
Next, they each elected two representatives and followed Elaine and the others to the music store.
The remaining French guys could only stand outside the cordon and look at the music store curiously.
As soon as they stood still, they began to inquire about the news from other onlookers around them.
It was heard that they were from the Louvre Museum, the Musée d'Orsay, and the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, respectively, and there was an immediate commotion at the scene.
The media reporters, especially those from the media, immediately swarmed up and began interviewing them, asking them why they came to Philadelphia.
In the piano store.
While walking, Pierre asked curiously:
"Where's that guy Sean? Did he find something good again?"
Elaine smiled and nodded, then explained:
"Sean is in a shelter deep underground that was transformed into an underground treasure trove by two art thieves."
"In that underground treasure house, there are many stolen antiques and artworks hidden, and each piece is of top quality and valuable."
"What has been discovered so far include paintings by Dali and Van Gogh, as well as works by Pollock and Vlaminck, sculptures by Cellini, etc...."
Before he finished speaking, several French guys were shocked and exclaimed.
"Oh my god! Did I hear you correctly? There are so many top-notch antiques hidden deep underground in this music store?"
"Oh God! What kind of art thieves are these? How many top-quality antiques have they looted?"
While they were talking, the group of them entered the basement entertainment area.
As soon as I entered here, Elaine had not yet introduced everyone present.
Pierre and the others saw the live broadcast on the big-screen TV and were instantly stunned.
"Wow! That's really Cellini's Virgin Mary statue, and Van Gogh's "Country Church""
Van Gogh's "Spring Garden"
