On the fourth night, the special forces soldiers brought along the "big gift" they had "meticulously" prepared for Cyril and began their final plan: to blow up Cyril's auction house. Ye Chien was in charge of sniping and creating chaos while the rest of their comrades cooperated with each other to leave the scene.
As the last of the sunset gradually faded and night quietly fell, Xia Jinyuan led his comrades from the hotel's underground parking lot and drove a commercial vehicle straight to the auction house.
The area around the auction house in the suburbs was very quiet. It was not as noisy as the city, but there were armed guards patrolling the area. The illegal auction would start at nine o 'clock that night. Every time the auction started, the security around the area would be tight to prevent anyone from causing trouble.
When Will arrived at the village, he had been paying attention to the surroundings. When he saw that the security was very tight, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. However, he was with Noah and couldn't immediately tell Xia Jinyuan. He could only pray that the mercenaries he hired would be able to find out in advance and not be discovered by Cyril's men before they even started to enter.
When he looked at Noah, his expression was so cold that Will couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
In order to make Noah take the bait and let Cyril temporarily believe that he had surrendered, he gave all four famous paintings that he had bought from a certain underground market in Noah's country to Cyril.
The four famous paintings came from the Gardner Museum. In 1990, thieves disguised as police officers stole thirteen famous paintings from the museum, including one of the thirty-six works of a seventeenth-century painting master. Until now, no one had discovered the theft, so no one knew that he had bought four of the thirteen paintings.
This time around, he handed them all to Cyril. Cyril was someone who knew what was good for him. When he saw the four famous paintings, the greed in his eyes was like that of a hyena that had been starved for a very long time. After receiving the four paintings, he spread the news the next day, which led to today's auction.
He had spent a lot of money back then. Six years had passed, and the black market value of the four paintings had increased by thirty-six times. With Cyril's greed, he would only sell them at an even higher price to those crazy collectors who were also very rich.
Tonight, Cyril only took out two famous paintings. For the other two paintings, he would need to renegotiate the price according to the craziness of the collectors in tonight's auction.
The greedy and shrewd Cyril attached great importance to this auction. With his whiskers, he could already see piles of money in front of him.
When Noah found out that four of the thirteen paintings stolen from their country in 1990 were in Cyril's hands, and that two of them would be auctioned off tonight, he felt as if he was soaked in cold water in the middle of winter. There was no way for him to improve his mood.
The car slowly entered the village. Noah asked Will again with a gloomy expression, "Are you sure it's in his hands? Are you sure? "
"I'm very sure. You can personally confirm if my information is accurate. Only two of them will be auctioned tonight, and Cyril still needs to keep the other two for the next auction. You have enough time to confirm whether or not it's true. "
Will spoke in a relaxed manner. He was very willing to use four famous paintings to resolve all the troubles of his family!
He spoke in a relaxed manner, but Noah didn't feel relaxed at all. Upon hearing this, his gloomy expression instantly turned into anger. He suppressed his voice and roared, "You don't know anything! The thirteen famous paintings were stolen for fifteen years. We have always been searching for them, but there was no news about them!
"Now, we finally have news about them, but you are telling me that there are two famous paintings being auctioned off tonight! Once they are bought by those vampire-like collectors, who knows where they would go again! "
