Chapter 1222: Unexpected discovery
On the fourth floor of an apartment building in the depths of the small street, the tactical team led by Ye Tian leaned against the corridor wall, kept the battle formation, and stopped by the door of an old apartment.
As soon as everyone stood firm, Ye Tian immediately pointed at the mottled old door full of graffiti in front of him, and said in a low voice:
"Evan, your life is coming, open the door of this apartment, pay attention to safety! We will cover you!"
"Okay, Steven, we will pay attention to safety!"
Evan nodded in response, and then walked up with another New York police officer and started calling the door.
Walker, holding a police shield, immediately took a step forward, preparing to provide cover for Evan and the others.
The others, including Ye Tian, lightly put their fingers on the trigger of the assault rifle, the muzzle was directed at the ground, and they were all on high alert, ready to go into battle at any time!
This is already the third apartment building they searched. It is about 100 meters away from the south entrance of Xiaojie. It has five floors and about 30 apartments. It is an old red brick building with a history of over a hundred years!
Like the other two apartment buildings searched before, this apartment building looks good on the outside and has a sense of history, but inside it is quite dilapidated, like a slum!
However, these have nothing to do with Ye Tian and the others. They just want to find the two Chicago scumbags as soon as possible, and then send the two scumbags to hell!
As for whether the people in these apartment buildings are living in dire straits, they don't care at all!
"Bang Bang Bang"
Evan knocked on the anti-theft iron door a few times, then hid beside the door and shouted:
"We are the New York police, please open the door for inspection"
After a short pause, a slightly nervous male voice came from the apartment.
"New York Police? How do I know if you are true or not? Please show your credentials"
"Okay, sir, we are from the Manhattan Police Department, here are my credentials"
With that said, Evan took out his ID and showed it in front of the peephole of the security door.
After confirming that it was correct, the 50-year-old white man in the apartment just opened the door, and then stood on the side of the door, with a slightly worried look in his eyes.
As soon as the anti-theft door was opened, Ye Tian and the others kept the battle formation, walked into this old apartment quickly in a row, and began to search the rooms.
As the supervisor, Evan and two other New York police officers stayed at the door and did not participate in the search. Evan stood inside the door, and the other two guys stood in the corridor outside the door, staring at the situation in the corridor.
After calming his mind for a while, the white homeowner immediately asked curiously:
"Mr. Officer, are you searching for those two Chicago idiots? I saw the wanted warrants for those two guys on TV. I also received a notice from the police just now. Let us stay at home and lock the door!"
"Yes, we are indeed searching for the two scumbags. They are hiding nearby, maybe in your apartment building!"
Evan nodded slightly and said, giving an affirmative answer.
While the two were talking, Ye Tian and the others had searched the two bedrooms and kitchen, and all returned to the living room.
The two Chicago scumbags are not here, they can leave.
After returning to the living room and standing still, Ye Tian was about to speak, but his eyes seemed to be drawn inadvertently by an oil painting hanging in the living room.
"Huh! There is actually a landscape oil painting here, which looks pretty good and has a bit of flavor"
With that said, Ye Tian took two steps forward and began to admire this landscape oil painting hanging on the wall of the living room.
This is a realistic landscape oil painting, about 1.5 meters wide and about 1.2 meters high. The size is relatively large, and the frame is American country style!
The content of the screen is a river scene. On the nearby river bank, there are several women and children wearing parasols and long skirts. Several people are playing on the grass on the river bank.
The middle scene is a big river with rippling blue waves, winding from a distance, the river is shimmering and clear, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the tall trees on both sides.
On the river in the distance, a white stone bridge flies on both sides of the bridge, on which stands a woman in a red dress, also holding a parasol, looking towards this side.
The distant view of the oil painting is a lush forest, and at the end of the forest are rolling mountains. In the middle of the forest, you can vaguely see several red roofs.
The brushstrokes of the entire oil painting are quite delicate, the painting method is flexible and natural, it is a typical realism style, and it is also vaguely romantic and full of poetry and pictures!
It is a pity that due to improper preservation of this oil painting, the oil on the painting is slightly dry, and there are even cracks in some places. There are also some cracks on the rustic wooden frame.
In Ye Tian's eyes, this landscape oil painting radiated a dazzling red light, so beautiful!
From the intensity of the red light emitted by the oil painting, he can accurately determine that this is an oil painting from the early 1960s.
In addition, the surface of this landscape oil painting is surrounded by seventeen or eight layers of fascinating halo, revealing its artistic value, as well as its high market value!
Undoubtedly, this is a landscape oil painting by a famous 19th century artist with extraordinary artistic value.
While admiring this landscape oil painting intently, Ye Tian also secretly turned on perspective and looked through the landscape oil again. ..
Before entering the apartment for a search, he saw the landscape oil painting through perspective and also saw the situation in the apartment.
He had known for a long time that the two Chicago scumbags were not in this apartment, but in order to get a closer look at the landscape painting, he still asked Evan to open the door.
Under the perspective, all the details and all the secrets of this landscape oil painting are clearly presented in Ye Tian's eyes, without any omission!
In a blink of an eye, he saw this beautiful landscape oil painting transparently, and he confirmed that it was a work by that famous artist!
Afterwards, he withdrew his sight and ended the perspective.
"Good evening, gentleman, take the liberty to interrupt, introduce myself, I’m Steven, nice to meet you"
Ye Tian turned to look at the white homeowner in his fifties, introduced himself with a smile, and proactively extended his right hand, behaving very friendly.
"Good evening, Steven. My name is Robert. I am the owner of this apartment. I am also very happy to meet you. To be honest, you are the first super rich person I can shake hands with. I am honored!"
Robert shook hands with Ye Tian strongly and introduced himself, but he was also curious.
Why did this cruel, fierce and famous guy in front of me shake hands and get to know myself? Is it because of that landscape oil painting?
After a few polite greetings, Ye Tian went straight to the subject and asked with a smile:
"Robert, I would like to ask, where did this landscape oil painting come from? How much do you know about this oil painting? To tell you, I like this landscape oil painting very much and I intend to include it in my bag~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Because of the special circumstances today, we have to hunt down those two Chicago scumbags. There is no time to waste, so I won’t go around. To tell you the truth, this is a very good artwork!
If you intend to sell, I will give you a pretty good price, enough for you to move out of Hell's Kitchen and live in another place. I'm sure your new life will be very pleasant!
If you don't want to sell it, it doesn't matter. I am very honored to see this landscape oil painting with my own eyes today, and I dare not ask for too much. What do you think? "
Hearing what Ye Tian said, Robert was immediately silly, and was stunned in place, his eyes full of incredible and crazy!
The eyes of the rest of the scene were full of envy, and they kept looking at Robert with a dull face and the landscape painting in the living room.
No one at the scene had doubts about Ye Tian's remarks.
Since Steven said that the landscape oil painting is a very good work of art, he can't be wrong. When did he look at it? Never heard of it!
