Treasure Hunt all over the World

Silva quickly finished the phone call and went upstairs to pack his things.

In the living room, Russell was on the phone to report to Wilson.

Matisse was using his mobile phone to check the nearby road conditions and formulate the most reasonable evacuation route. Peake was still guarding the courtyard to prevent someone from sneaking into the house on No. 5 Road.

It seemed that Ye Tian was the only one who was idle. He stood in the center of the living room, looking around and admiring the decoration in the living room and this Spanish-style house.

In fact, this is just an appearance, and it is completely for others to see.

At this time, he was secretly examining every corner of the house to see if there were other valuable treasures and top-level antique works of art.

It turned out to be quite disappointing, except for the top piece of art hidden in the ceiling, there were no surprises to be found!

There are a few oil paintings hanging in the study and bedroom on the second floor, but they are all abstract works by an unknown Latin American painter, and they are not worth much at all!

There is not a single valuable antique, except for the building itself, which cannot be taken away!

The most valuable is a set of emerald jewellery, which belongs to Silva's wife, but it is only worth ten to twenty thousand dollars. Ye Tian doesn't like it at all!

Besides, this set of jewelry has been put into the backpack by Silva, ready to take it away.

In less than ten seconds, Ye Tian had a thorough perspective of the house, not missing a single corner.

Then he ended the perspective, retracted his gaze, and waited for Silva to go downstairs.

Next, find a way to take down the top artwork hidden in the ceiling.

Waiting for Silva to take it out from the ceiling is the time to strike.

The so-called start here is not to kill Silva and take the top artwork for himself, but to buy it at a price far below the market price.

For the Silva family, after fleeing Colombia, what they need most is a lot of money!

Only with a lot of money would they be able to fly to Europe or somewhere else and start a whole new life in a new city incognito.

And what Ye Tian lacked the most was dollars! And very generous!

He was very sure that the check waving in his hand would dazzle Silva's eyes and make him willingly transfer that top oil painting!

As for Silva not taking away this top-level artwork for the time being, and coming back to pick it up later, this possibility does not exist at all, so don't even think about it!

Two or three minutes later, Silva returned to the living room with a backpack on his back, looking very excited and a bit worried.

Seeing him coming down, Ye Tian immediately smiled and asked:

"Have you brought all the things? If there is nothing missing, then you can go. We have six people in total. You go in the middle, don't worry, we will ensure your safety! Let your family reunite as soon as possible!"

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to pick up the painting tube on the coffee table, and made a gesture to leave.

Russell and Mattis were also ready to evacuate, and notified other people who responded outside.

At this moment, Silva suddenly said:

"Wait a minute, there's still something missing"

Waiting for this is the sentence! Sure enough, it is still here!

Ye Tian laughed secretly, pretending to be surprised and asked:

"Is there anything else? It's best to hurry up. Once your wife and children are taken away, the bastards outside will probably stop hesitating. They may do it immediately, and it will be difficult to get out at that time!"

"Okay, it won't take long"

Silva nodded in response, and ran to the restaurant.

In a blink of an eye, he rushed into the dining room, and when he reappeared, he quickly ran towards the living room with a sharp chef's knife in his hand.

Seeing this scene, Russell and Matisse were a little dumbfounded, not understanding what Silva was going to do! What's wrong with it?

Ye Tian also showed a look of surprise, but he was very clear about the purpose of Silva holding the chef's knife.

Silva quickly rushed to a corner of the living room, stretched out his hand and pulled a cabinet about 1.5 meters high to the corner, and quickly stood on top of the cabinet.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his head and inserted the sharp tip of the chef's knife close to the wall into the ceiling, and then followed the angle between the ceiling and the wall, and cut a slit more than two meters long in the ceiling from left to right.

"What is Silva doing? Is there something hidden in the ceiling?"

Russell asked in surprise, curiosity and excitement flashed in his eyes.

"It seems to be the case, otherwise he wouldn't have done this, the hiding is perfect!"

Mattis continued, equally curious.

When cutting to a length of about two meters along the corner of the wall, Silva stopped, then pulled out the chef's knife from the ceiling and threw it on the sofa next to him.

The next moment, the ceiling suddenly fell downwards, opening a hole more than two meters long, which also brought out a cloud of dust.

After the dust dispersed, everyone could see the material of the ceiling clearly.

That is not plaster or wood boards, but a ceiling made of cardboard two or three centimeters thick. The camouflage is so clever that no flaws can be seen at all!

Obviously, this is a mechanism specially designed by Silva to hide things.

What treasure is hidden there? So deliberate here, Russell and Matisse looked at the ceiling curiously, eyes full of anticipation.

The answer will be revealed soon!

Silva held the white cardboard with both hands and pulled it down hard, making the crack bigger.

There was another cloud of dust in the room, and it seemed that this beautiful Spanish-style house looked dilapidated in an instant!

Before the dust fell, Silva impatiently stretched his right hand into the crack, and carefully pulled out a thin thing wrapped in waterproof paper, about 160*120 in size.

Although I didn't see what was wrapped in waterproof paper, everyone had already guessed the answer.

It must be a painting, and it is a valuable painting, otherwise there is no need to be so cautious!

Perhaps this is the goal of the Colombian gang! Russell and Mattis thought of this instantly.

"boom!"

Silva jumped down and walked towards the cabinet containing the painting tube, preparing to put the painting in his hand into the painting tube.

Obviously, he didn't intend to show the painting to the other three people in the room.

God knows if those three guys will become covetous after seeing it, and plot against themselves! Still be careful!

However, this is beyond his control.

In this room, he is the one who has the least right to speak.

"Silva, if I'm not mistaken, it should be an oil painting, right? Can I see it? To be honest, I'm very interested. What kind of painting makes you so cautious? It should be a top art work, right? "

Ye Tian smiled, but his tone of voice was very firm, beyond doubt.

And his eyes were fixed on the things in Silva's hands, and his eyes were extremely hot!

As soon as the words fell, Silva stopped in his tracks immediately, and his face began to change drastically, becoming very ugly, livid, with cold sweat protruding from his forehead.

These bastards are finally motivated by money, and are ready to kill and steal! This is also a bunch of damn robbers, no one is good!

Silva didn't show the painting in his hand, but turned around and stared at Ye Tian and the others with hatred, his eyes were full of despair and anger!

Seeing this performance, Ye Tian didn't know what he was thinking.

"Silva, you don't have to be afraid, let alone worry that we will trick you, I can swear that there will never be any dirty tricks of murder and robbery here!

I don’t allow others to do this either, it’s not my style of doing things, and it’s not in line with my principles of life, please don’t worry, we will definitely send your family out of Colombia safely”

With that said, Ye Tian stepped up to Silva's side, patted his shoulder lightly, and gave him a bright smile.

The anger and despair in Silva's eyes quickly disappeared, and his face returned to normal.

But Russell, who was standing next to him, had a look of disappointment in his eyes!

"Thank you, Jack, I'm really scared!"

While thanking, Silva's eye sockets were a little moist, but he still didn't shed tears after all, he is a man after all, not so fragile!

"I understand very well, this is human nature! Anyone who is stared at by a group of murderous gangsters every day will become a frightened bird, it is not surprising at all!

As an expert in the identification of antique works of art, when I see top-level works of art, especially such carefully hidden works of art, I must be very itchy and want to see them.

I hope you can also understand my thoughts, let me appreciate this work of art, and see if it is the work of that famous artist, how much is it worth!

If it is indeed a top art piece, maybe I will have it in my pocket, or recommend some suitable buyers to you. I know quite a few top collectors! "

Ye Tian released the temptation little by little, and approached the target little by little.

At this point, does Silva have any other options? absolutely not!

"Well, Jack, you can enjoy the painting, but I want you to keep your word!"

Silva said anxiously, his eyes still full of worry.

"Don't worry, Silva, the last thing you want will never happen!"

Ye Tian said with a light smile, very confident.

"Okay, I'll show you this oil painting, and one more thing, if you really like this oil painting, the price is right, and I have no objection to selling it"

"That's great! I'll appreciate and authenticate the painting first! I'll talk about other things later!"

With that said, Ye Tian and Silva walked to the side of the coffee table, quickly cleaned up the things on it, and freed up the table.

Afterwards, Silva carefully placed the painting in his hand on the coffee table, and began to disassemble several layers of waterproof paper wrapped outside.

At this moment, two voices suddenly came from the invisible earphone.

"Russell, we picked up Silva's wife and are rushing to the airport. The two gangsters who were following us have already found out. They are following us right now, and we will solve it soon!"

"It's the same with us. Silva's son and daughter are in the car. We compared the photos when we picked them up. We didn't make a mistake. We are on our way to the airport, and there are people following us."

After listening to the briefing, Russell immediately issued an order.

"Attention the pick-up guy, try to get rid of those following bastards, if you really can't get rid of them, then kill them, don't take those bastards to the airport! That will expose us.

The rest of the guys should be more vigilant. If it is as expected, the gangsters at the door will attack soon. Once they open fire, please don't hesitate to kill them directly. "

"clear!"

There was a booming response from the earphones, and every sound was murderous.

While Russell was arranging his actions, Ye Tian smiled and said to Silva:

"Dude, I have good news for you. Your wife and children have been picked up and are on their way to the airport. I believe you will see them in a short time!"

"Wonderful! Jack, thank you"

Silva cheered, his excited hands trembling a little.

Ye Tian smiled lightly and nodded at him, then said to Mathis next to him:

"You guard the gate of this house. It only takes two minutes for me to appraise the painting, and then we can evacuate!"

As he said that, he secretly winked at Russell, telling Mathis to be more careful.

Matisse immediately understood and nodded slightly.

Immediately afterwards, he reached out and took out the G36C assault rifle from his backpack, pushed the bullets into the chamber, and was ready to fire.

On the coffee table in front of the sofa, Silva took off the last layer of waterproof paper, and displayed the oil painting wrapped inside before Ye Tian's eyes.

The moment Ye Tian saw this oil painting, he pretended to be surprised and exclaimed.

“My God! Fantastic Mannerist oil painting, so rare! What a huge surprise!”

Just as he exclaimed, there was a piercing gunshot from the earphones.

"Bang bang bang"

This is the sound of pistol shooting, and the battle first started on the road in downtown Cartagena!
