Chapter 519: Nowhere to Run

Fifteen minutes later, Ye Tian walked out of the reception room, followed by Benjamin.

"Jack, I will tell Pastor Thompson what you said as soon as possible, I believe he will nod and help you repair the painting!"

"That's great! Thank you, Benjamin and thank Pastor Thompson for me. If he can restore the oil painting, in addition to the remuneration I should pay, I will donate a sum of money to the Old North Church to show my gratitude!"

Ye Tian said gratefully, behaving very generously.

Anyway, it's a bad check. What does it matter if he offer more?

While chatting, the two of them walked towards the entrance of the building, very harmonious, like an old friend they hadn't seen for many years.

Originally, Ye Tian wanted to see the situation in the building, such as Thompson's bedroom upstairs, the private studio in the basement, etc., to see how many secrets are hidden here.

But Benjamin stayed with him all the time. For the sake of safety, he had to give up the idea of ​​seeing through immediately, so he could only go out and talk about it later.

Now is the most critical moment. To avoid any mistakes, it doesn't matter if he progress slowly, but he must not arouse Thompson's alertness. If that happen he will lose everything!

While they were talking, the two walked out the door.

After saying goodbye to each other, Benjamin returned to the building and Ye Tian walked to the side.

The first time he walked out of the small building, he looked up and saw Matisse and Pique dangling near the south gate of the church.

The two of them were still dressed as tourists, looking up to admire this famous church, but they kept looking at this small building.

When Ye Tian saw them, they also saw Ye Tian. The sights of the two sides were instantly separated, neither greeted each other nor showed any suspiciousness.

When Benjamin disappeared into the building and he walked to the side of the small building, Ye Tian whispered excitedly:

"Guys, there is a major discovery. Thompson has a private studio in the basement of this small building. It used to be his bedroom. Later, it was converted into a private studio. It is very private and no outsiders are allowed to enter!

Since he came to the Old North Church, the basement has been used by him. It has been 30 years and has never changed its owner. According to my estimation, this studio is most likely a warehouse where stolen artworks are hidden.

In addition, he also has a bedroom on the second floor, which is also very worthy of investigation. If nothing else, we should have made major discoveries in these two rooms and success is here!"

When he said these words, Ye Tian's mood and tone were very excited.

However, his expression was very calm, showing no abnormality at all, no different from other tourists around.

"Awesome! We are going to make a fortune!"

There was a burst of cheers in the earphones and everyone was very excited.

Cheers, of course, come from Matisse and the others, as well as Kenny's guys.

After a brief celebration, Matisse's voice came immediately.

"Steven, what should we do next? Go straight to face the enemie or go roundabout? We follow your instructions!"

"Let me think about it. It is definitely not possible to go straight to face the enemie. It is not appropriate to alarm Pastor Thompson at this stage. All our actions must be carried out in secret!

Only after we get enough evidence, negotiate conditions with the FBI art crime team and many museums and collectors and reach an agreement, can we go straight to combat the enemie!"

Ye Tian explained a few words and then began to ponder.

There was silence in the headset, everyone was waiting for him to make a decision and everyone was full of expectations.

After half a minute, Ye Tian's voice came out.

"Everyone listen to my arrangements, Cole, Charlie, you guard the front door of the church, Matisse, Pique, you stare at the back door, if Thompson comes out, you must stare at him, never let him out of sight.

Kenny, Byrne, you pack it up and drive to the Old North Church in the commercial car with your equipment. Remember! Put on the prepared Boston license plates, pay attention to your hidden tracks and don't bring the FBI idiots over!

We must find out if there is surveillance in this building. I didn't see surveillance on the first floor just now, but I guess that the bedroom on the second floor of Thompson and the studio in the basement are equipped with pinhole cameras in all likelihood.

This is a master who is careful in thinking and does everything right! We must take all possibilities into consideration and we must not act rashly. If he finds anything wrong, we may lose all our efforts!

If there is no monitoring in the building, then everything will be fine! If there is a hidden surveillance camera, then we must find a way to fool the surveillance camera and put the Beetle drone in to obtain first-hand video evidence.

In addition, I am going to go in in person at night to investigate the situation in the building to see if there are any stolen top art works. This requires careful preparation, we cannot to be sloppy!"

"Received, let's get started!"

Everyone responded in unison and every voice was very excited and motivated!

Afterwards, Matisse said with some worry:

"Steven, isn't it a bit too risky for you to sneak into the building alone at night? Should I go alone, or I should go in with you?"

Ye Tian didn't think about it at all and immediately rejected the proposal with a smile.

"Don't worry, as long as we fool the surveillance cameras, there will be no danger here. No one can pose a real threat to me. I still have this confidence.

Besides, this matter must be done by me. If there are stolen antique artworks in the two rooms, I can tell if are reals and evaluate at a glance. You may not have this ability!

You just need to be outside, don't even think about accompany me in. A only person is easier to get in and get out. If there is one more person, it will increase the chance of exposure! No good!"

When saying these words, Ye Tian's tone was full of confidence and extremely firm.

Of course, he can't take Matisse and the others to explore the small building at night. Tonight, he must use the perspective ability frequently. Bringing Matisse and the others will only get in the way.

"Okay! Now that you have made a decision, let it be yours."

Matisse responded in a low voice, slightly disappointed.

Any idea? Who let himself run into an omnipotent boss! Even if he want to show his skills and perform well, there is no chance!

"Everyone, start acting, pay attention to communication, cover and coordinate with each other, I will go to see the situation of this small building, maybe I will find something!"

Ye Tian smiled and said in a low voice and then walked to the side of the small building.

At this time, he resumed his identity as a tourist and began to admire this ancient building.

There are no surveillance cameras in the church courtyard, so he can safely observe through perspective.

Even if there is a surveillance camera, he is not afraid, Ye Tian's behavior at this time is not much different from other tourists, but he seems to pay more attention to the building!

The exploration first started from the first room on the east side of the first floor at the north end of the small building.

Although Thompson's bedroom was on the second floor and his private studio was in the basement, Ye Tian didn't plan to let go of every corner in this building. He was going to explore all the rooms.

This is an apartment building with a corridor in the middle and rooms on both sides. The upstairs, downstairs and basement all add up to about 20 or 30 rooms.

Only by investigating these rooms and thoroughly grasping the situation in each room they can be foolproof and avoid unpredictable situations.

Perspective is on!

In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian's line of sight has penetrated the wall, seeing everything in the target room under his eyes, without missing anything!

This is the guard duty room. The area is not large. There is a white guard in his sixties who is sitting on the sofa watching TV, smiling very brightly!

There are a few antiques in the room, those old furniture, but they are not worth much at all. They have no other merits except for being strong and there is no artwork, which seems worthless!

However, there are things that Ye Tian cares about here.

Security watch! There are schedules for the changing of guards and patrols and the changing of guards is undoubtedly the best time to sneak into the small building.

Soon, Ye Tian saw the security duty schedule on the table at the door of the room and quickly memorize the relevant time points marked on it.

After that, his gaze immediately shifted and he looked at the basement below the guard's room.

This is a reference room with a large number of documents stacked in wooden boxes and carefully preserved. Obviously, it is very important!

Moreover, these materials are quite old, many of which are documents from the eighteenth century, shining red in Ye Tian's eyes.

It is a pity that most of the things recorded in these materials are related to the church and are of little value!

Of course, this varies from person to person.

For Ye Tian, ​​these things are really not of much value and they are not as good as the outer box!

But for the Old North Church, this is a priceless treasure, the most powerful evidence of the long history of this church!

Except for these documents, there are no other antique artworks in the room and there are no secrets or secret rooms on the ground and walls and nothing is obtained!

In just a few seconds, Ye Tian finished the investigation and moved his eyes away from the basement.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the room upstairs from the guard's room.

This is a suite with two inside and outside rooms, with an area of ​​about fifty or sixty square meters, with a bathroom, one inside is a bedroom and prayer area and outside is a living room.

The furnishings in the room are simple and plain, there is no luxury to enjoy, religious articles and books, as well as related clothing can be seen everywhere.

Obviously, this is the room of a certain priest in the Old North Church.

There are no hidden secrets, no antique artworks and no walls or secret rooms. he can skip it!

After just a few glances, Ye Tian knew the room well.

Next, he quickly explored several rooms on the east side of the small building and still found nothing, nor did he see Thompson.

Soon, one-third of the rooms in the small building had been explored, and there were still no surprises.

When Ye Tian looked at a suite on the second floor again, a dazzling orange light flashed out immediately, which was extremely beautiful! His eyes were a little dizzy!

But that's not all. On the other wall, there is a red light that is equally eye-catching and it is shining in his eyes at the same time, full of temptation and fascinating!

A top art piece of more than 400 years of history! A masterpiece from a hundred years ago!

Ecstasy came to his heart instantly! He finally found it!

Dear Pastor Thompson, you have nowhere to escape!
