Chapter 602: Another Secret Room (Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Monthly Tickets)
"Boss, we've searched all over the cemetery, and we haven't found the shadow of Steven's bastard, it's really weird, can't that bastard fly?"
"The south entrance of Hall Street and the north gate of the old North Church have been blocked by the FBI, and I don't see Steven's bastard, he shouldn't have gone there!"
Several bodyguards reported one after another, but there was no good news.
"Keep looking, I'm sure that Steven's bastard is hiding in this cemetery, at least a hundred meters from Hall Street to the north gate of the old North Church, even if he can fly, he can't fly there so quickly!
Judging from the actions of Steven and the FBI with such fanfare, those art thieves are 100% related to the Old North Church, we have worked so hard for so long and paid such a big price, we must not return empty-handed!
This place is very close to the Old North Church, and since Steven's bastard disappeared here, it means that there is probably a hidden secret passage here, and as long as we find the secret passage, we may be able to make a fortune!"
Cook cursed angrily, and immediately ordered his men to continue their search.
This guy's eyes are already blood-red, as if he has just eaten a dead child!
He knew very well in his heart that this was his last chance, and if he missed it, this trip to Boston would be in vain, not only did he not reap any benefits, but he paid a lot of price and caused a commotion!
"Okay, boss"
Several bodyguards responded with a bang and began a futile search again.
At the same time that these guys were bumping around in the cemetery like headless flies, Ye Tianzheng was walking in the hidden secret passage below the cemetery.
At this moment, he had already taken out the G36C in his backpack, slung it cross-body, loaded the bullet, and as long as he opened the safe, he could fire at any time and suppress all opponents.
The same goes for the two M9s under the armpits, the bullets are loaded and can be pulled out and fired at any time.
And both M9s have a muffler twisted in their muzzles, and with his perspective ability, they will be extremely powerful in the dark, even more lethal than the G36C assault rifle!
In this secret passage, the old Thompson guy did not set a trap, only installed some sensor-type emergency lights, one at a distance of about twenty meters.
When this secret passage was first built, the builders set up several deadly traps, which were very secret and difficult to prevent!
But after nearly three hundred years, the mechanisms that control these traps have long since become completely rusted and impossible to function!
The lethal weapons in the trap, like the Kentucky spear in the tunnel before, no longer had any power, they were all scrapped!
The mechanism under the sarcophagus of the tomb is still functioning thanks to the old fellow Thompson, and it is his careful maintenance and maintenance that the mechanism has been able to come back to life!
It is a secret passage that slopes downward, and like the outside terrain, it follows the slope of the hill and leads to the palace beneath the Rivera Gardens.
There are a few bends in the secret passage, and each bend is a place where traps are set, very subtle and very vicious!
At these bends, in addition to the long-abandoned traps, there are several secret chambers, which were once used to store troops or food, but are now empty.
Like the secret passage under the Old North Church, this secret passage is also made of granite and red brick, which is very strong, and it is taller and more spacious.
With Ye Tian's height, there is no need to bow his head and bend down when he walks in it, there is still a lot of space above his head.
The secret passage was very quiet, only his breathing and footsteps alone could hardly be heard!
Under the illumination of the sensor emergency lights and headlamps, the situation in the first few meters of the secret passage is very clear, and it seems that there is no danger, and you can move forward with confidence.
But just in case, every twenty meters he traveled, Ye Tian would stop, open the perspective, and probe the situation within twenty-two meters in front of him, the ground of the passage, the walls on both sides, and the dome, all of which would not be missed!
This is especially true at the bend, and he will only pass with confidence if he is sure that it is completely safe.
There are no pinhole cameras here, and God knows if that old Thompson guy has done anything in the past few days!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had sneaked fifty or sixty meters alone along the secret passage, and he had already left the scope of the Old North Church cemetery, and was in the depths of the underground of Hall Street.
It's another turn ahead!
Ye Tian stopped, turned on the perspective again, and probed the situation on the road ahead.
When you look through the wall around the corner, you can see the situation on the other side clearly in an instant, and nothing is missed!
Everything is as seen last time, there are no cameras, no electronic sensors, no deadly traps, it's very safe!
Ye Tian retracted his gaze, ended the perspective, took a direct step around the corner, and continued to walk forward!
With his appearance, the emergency lights five or six meters in front of him immediately turned on, and the situation in this secret passage was immediately clearly presented in his eyes.
After walking forward for more than ten meters along the secret passage, Ye Tian suddenly stopped and turned to look at the wall on the right.
What appeared in front of him at this moment was a niche embedded in the wall, in which was placed a bronze sculpture of a human head, about thirty centimeters high.
Like the one you see on the spiral staircase, this is also a sculpture by Christopher Wren, the builder of the Old North Church, carved in 1723!
But unlike the previous sculpture, the one in front of me is not just a sculpture, but also a small mechanism.
"Thompson, I'm sorry, from now on, that list of antique art sales will belong to buddy!"
Ye Tian chuckled and whispered, then stretched out his hands to hold the bronze statue in the alcove, and slowly rotated it in a clockwise direction.
"Click"
The sound of the machine turning suddenly sounded.
The sound was not loud, but in this secluded and unusually secret passage, it was extremely clear!
Luckily, the old Thompson guy was still in the same warehouse where the stolen antique art was hidden, so it was impossible to hear it!
If he was in the secret room where the weapons and ammunition were stored, maybe he could really hear it, then it would be a big problem!
When the bronze sculpture in the alcove was rotated to six o'clock, the sound of the machine turning suddenly stopped, and the secret passage was quiet again.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian let go of the bronze sculpture, reached out and pressed the wall next to the alcove, and pushed it hard.
The next moment, the seemingly ordinary wall in front of me suddenly began to open inward, and a straight crack appeared.
Ye Tian continued to exert force with both hands, and the crack became bigger and bigger.
A few seconds later, an arch about one meter eight high that could only allow one person to pass through had appeared in front of Ye Tian's eyes.
Needless to say, this is another cleverly designed secret room!
At the same time that Ye Tian opened the door, the emergency lights in the secret room had already turned on, illuminating the situation inside.
Without a moment's pause, Ye Tian immediately lowered his head and walked into this secret room.
The internal space of the secret room is not large, about four or five square meters, about two meters high, and there are not many things inside, only two metal trolley boxes and a small safe.
As for what was in these boxes, Ye Tian had already explored it clearly when he came in last time.
The metal trolley case against the door contained two G36C assault rifles, identical to the one he had.
This German-made assault rifle is extremely accurate, short in size, lightweight, and powerful in fire, making it ideal for urban street fighting.
Obviously, Thompson fully considered the narrow and closed environment in the secret passage, so he specially purchased two G36Cs here in case of emergency!
In addition to the two assault rifles, the trolley case contained eight loaded magazines, as well as two USP pistols and several magazines, also from the German company HK.
In another metal trolley case next to it, there is a Kevlar body armor and a black backpack that you can pick up and go at any time.
In addition to a few changes of clothes and a baseball cap, this backpack also contains eight small gray-green pineapples and a powerful M67 time-lapse grenade!
In the small safe next to the trolley case, there are several passports, as well as 50,000 US dollars and 30,000 euros of old bills, and a diary that records the sale of stolen goods for more than 20 years!
The photos on those passports are naturally all Thompson's old guys.
The names on the passports are different, and the nationalities are very different, there are Brazil, Liechtenstein, Australia, South Africa, etc.!
Thompson, the old guy, knows the meaning of this idiom better than anyone else!
I'm afraid that from the day he started committing the crime, this old guy was ready to slip away at any time, no matter how big or small, and he was very thoughtful!
"It's a pity, Thompson, you don't have a chance to slip away, you have to go to hell today to report, only then can you sleep soundly in the future!"
Ye Tian chuckled lightly and walked towards the small safe.
Fingerprints and passwords are required to open the safe, are these two things still a problem for Ye Tian?
When he visited the Old North Church at night before, he had already mastered it completely!
In the blink of an eye, this seemingly sturdy safe was quickly opened by Ye Tian, and the contents of the safe were presented with it, and they were all you wanted!
However, he didn't touch anything else, only took out the diary that recorded the sale of stolen goods and stuffed it into his backpack, which was the most valuable treasure!
Then he turned and left the chamber, not even looking at the two metal trolley cases.
The door closes again, the emergency lights go out, and the chamber is plunged back into darkness as if nothing had happened.
The statue in the niche was restored to its original position and wiped off its traces.
After doing this, Ye Tianfang continued to move forward, and not far ahead was the underground of the Old North Church!
After walking a few steps, Matisse's voice suddenly came through the headphones.
"Steven, the Old North Church and Paul Rivera's Gardens are empty of visitors, as are the clergy, and several nearby apartment buildings are almost cleared!
Judge William and Joseph communicated with the head of the Old North Church, explained the situation, and informed the city government, and Lucas arrived at the scene with the bomb disposal team!
The time is ripe for the arrest, and we're ready to rush into the apartment building to capture that old Thompson guy, and the rest of the group will be arrested at the same time!
As soon as we show up in the basement and second-floor hallways of the apartment building, the old Thompson guy will probably be alerted immediately, so you have to be careful, and you must be safe!"
"Let's do it, don't worry, no one can threaten me, not even Thompson's old gang!"
Ye Tian chuckled and whispered, very confident.
Immediately afterwards, he said through the intercom:
"Kenny, Bourne, don't show Thompson any more video, give him real-time surveillance footage, let him know what's going on outside!"
"Got it, Steven, watch me, the show is on!"
Kenny's voice came through the headphones, and he was extremely excited!
