The street in front of the apartment building was completely in chaos.
One to two hundred masked thugs appeared out of nowhere and were approaching the apartment building door from the left and right.
These guys are all young, looking to be in their teens or 20s. They come in all skin colors, and nearly half are of African descent and North African Arab descent.
Most of them were wearing black hoodies and black masks, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, and they were shouting menacingly.
"Let that bastard Sean hand over the treasure and get out of Paris. The treasures in Paris only belong to Parisians!"
"Hand over the King's coat of arms and Queen Marie's treasure map, robbers are not welcome in Paris"
While shouting loudly, these masked thugs also kept waving their arms, wildly provoking the police on the periphery, and trying to break through the police cordon.
Some of them even held weapons such as sticks in their hands, or picked up rocks from the ground and threw them at the police.
There were also a few guys holding fireworks and releasing them at the Paris police who were maintaining order.
Under the pressure of these guys, the Paris policemen guarding the cordon could only retreat step by step while holding up their police shields.
Some police officers even showed a bit of gloating expression on their faces.
Obviously, these police officers were not angry at Xiao Ran for taking away such an amazing treasure, and had no intention of trying their best to maintain order at the scene.
Some of them even wished that these masked thugs would burst into this Baroque-style apartment building and loot all the Robespierre treasures!
Not only them, many of the guys who gathered at the door of the apartment building to watch the excitement also had the same idea.
As French people, they have long been accustomed to scenes like today!
They just stepped aside and laughed and watched the excitement. Some guys even had their eyes shining and were eager to try.
When the masked thugs broke through police lines and stormed into the apartment building, these guys were ready to fish in troubled waters.
Follow those masked thugs and rush into the apartment building, take the opportunity to loot, maybe you can grab one or two priceless treasures, then you can make a lot of money!
The media reporters who were guarding in front of the apartment building turned their cameras to take pictures of the menacing masked thugs!
Only many historians and experts and scholars from all walks of life realized the seriousness of the problem, and they were all very anxious!
They know very well that if these masked thugs with ulterior motives are allowed to rush into the apartment building, huge irreparable losses will be caused!
Those newly discovered important historical documents that can rewrite the history of France may be burned and completely destroyed!
Although anxious, these historians and experts and scholars were powerless to change the situation at hand.
At this moment, someone suddenly said loudly at the door of the apartment building:
"All officers on the scene, listen, if you can stop these masked thugs from storming into this apartment building, you will each receive a $50,000 reward."
"If you cannot stop these thugs, there will be no reward at all. If you are unfortunately injured, our company will give you a certain amount of pension."
"One more thing, you are not alone. A large number of police will arrive soon to support you. You can think about it yourself."
Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately shocked and looked towards the door of the apartment building.
The one standing at the door and shouting was none other than Anthony.
At this time, all the security personnel, including him, had drawn their assault rifles and were guarding the door of the apartment building as if facing a formidable enemy.
Looking at the Paris policemen at the scene, they were all stunned for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, excitement flashed in the eyes of these guys, and they were all excited.
Just by guarding this apartment building, you can get a reward of fifty thousand dollars. Is there such a good thing in the world?
That’s fifty thousand dollars! It’s higher than my annual salary. It’s such an easy windfall, and no one would be fooled to ask for it!
The next moment, the senior police officer leading the team suddenly shouted:
"Guys, this is DeSantis, please guard the cordons on both sides of the apartment building and don't let those thugs rush over."
"The historical documents found in this apartment building are French history and are extremely important. We have a responsibility to protect them."
These words were high-sounding, but everyone understood what he meant.
The Paris police officers responsible for maintaining order at the scene were naturally no exception.
"Copy that, boss"
Many police officers responded loudly, all of them excited.
The next moment, these guys raised their batons and banged them on the shields several times.
Then they all stepped forward, looking at the masked thugs with eager eyes, ready to fight at any time.
In the blink of an eye, these Paris policemen had stabilized their position and slowly pushed towards the masked thugs.
Seeing this scene, everyone in front of the apartment building was stunned, their eyes full of astonishment.
The few guys who were hiding in the crowd and stirring up trouble secretly stamped their feet and cursed in annoyance.
"Fake! These damn police were bribed with only fifty thousand dollars. What a bunch of idiots!"
"The treasure that that bastard Sean has in his hands is worth more than a billion dollars!"
While whispering curses, these guys were ready to cause trouble and instigate people around them to storm the apartment building.
This way, we can have a central flower and bypass those stupid police officers on the periphery.
At this moment, a cold warning sound suddenly came from behind them.
"Man, you better be honest, or I'll send you to hell!"
Upon hearing this, the guys who were trying to cause trouble immediately froze and did not dare to move.
They still don't understand this situation.
Sean, that cunning bastard, had already planted many hidden stakes in the crowd, secretly targeting himself and others.
If he dared to instigate a crowd to storm the apartment building, he would be killed immediately by the security personnel hiding in the crowd.
Those security personnel are private bodyguards, not police, and they will not have any concerns about taking action!
If you understand this, how dare these guys move again?
In the blink of an eye, those menacing masked thugs were suppressed by the police on both sides and could not move any further!
Although those guys are numerous in number, they are just a ragtag group of people fighting against the five scum!
Faced with a large number of well-trained police officers who were bent on making an extra $50,000, they couldn't take any advantage at all!
Coupled with the limited width of the street, it is not that difficult for the police to defend.
After several close encounters, the unlucky ones were all masked thugs, and they were all beaten until they screamed!
It didn't take long for the masked thugs to be forced back dozens of meters by numerous police officers and out of the confines of the apartment building.
Apartment upstairs.
Xiao Ran and David stood at the third-floor window, looking disdainfully at the scene on the street below.
Through the high-definition camera, countless people on the live broadcast side also saw the battle scene downstairs, and they were all speechless.
Tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms were watching the excitement while discussing enthusiastically.
"Holy shit! The security in Paris is so bad. This is not Paris, it's just Syria."
"In broad daylight, there were actually one or two hundred masked thugs rushing onto the streets and trying to openly rob. Who would dare to go to Paris in the future?"
The monster said with emotion.
"Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man! Xiao Ran, this is a great trick, otherwise you will really be in big trouble today!"
The broken puppet continued.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran smiled softly and did not respond.
Behind him, Elaine, Fang Yufei, and many company employees were all ready to evacuate at any time.
The treasures found in the apartment building were packed and ready to be taken away.
Carlin, Henry, and Cornell were not in the apartment at this time.
They went downstairs and tried to calm things down.
The moment they walked out of the apartment building, Xiao Ran withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Elaine and the others and many company employees.
He glanced at everyone, then smiled and said loudly:
"Don't be nervous, just be prepared to evacuate. Wait and see how the situation changes and be ready to evacuate at any time."
"I have made evacuation arrangements a long time ago, and I will definitely be able to take everyone out of this apartment building safely..."
While he was talking, a huge engine roar suddenly came from the sky outside.
Immediately afterwards, two medium-sized helicopters roared from the sky and flew directly towards the apartment building.
The next moment, there were bursts of shrill sirens outside.
A large number of police cars were speeding in from all directions, targeting the apartment building as well.
Hearing these movements outside, everyone let out a sigh of relief and finally felt relieved.
