Chapter 1835: Prepare to die
In countries around the world, art theft and security system loopholes are no longer news, especially in recent years, more and more famous painting shareholders have set new highs, almost becoming the most expensive item on the planet. However, many museums have failed to upgrade security measures in time, resulting in art theft becoming one of the most profitable criminal groups in the world.
It is estimated that more than 50,000 art thefts occur every year around the world, and the smuggling and trafficking of stolen paintings and sculptures has become a $6 billion worth of, attracting the involvement of many criminal groups.
What makes people speechless is that almost most museums still believe that ‘Da’anism’ seems to naively believe that they are not destined to be a crime.
Of course, for many non-profit museums that do not charge tickets, security systems are really expensive. The security team that has always been fully equipped may have eaten half of the museum's operating budget, which does not include expensive high-tech mobile detectors and idea keys.
The dilemma that makes the museum even more helpless is that on the one hand, the museum hopes to create a better environment for the public to appreciate famous works of art. On the other hand, it is convenient for the public to watch and also facilitates the thief to start. There is no way. If the museum protects the artworks layer by layer and keeps the visits away, it will definitely cause public dissatisfaction.
The Kyoto National Museum, hidden by green pines and surrounded by green spaces, is better regarded as a cultural theme park with the function of a collection. There is a long assortment path between each collection. The open field is filled with sunlight. Visitors can take advantage of the elegant parasols prepared by the museum at will. Surrounding the central green space is a complete circle of wooden chairs for people to take a nap, which is often occupied by tourists and locals walking in the garden for a long time.
After the team, the handsome Italian guy Camora put on makeup with great skill, he completely lost his true face. He walked through the quiet alleyway and looked at the Kyoto National Museum in front of him, and once again felt like he was traveling from the bustling and bustling international metropolis to the small town of the Middle Ages.
The main building is a small courtyard, and the main hall is just a two-story building. It is not so grand, but it still has aura.
The Kyoto National Museum can be called the Asian Cultural Relics Museum. To put it bluntly, the cultural relics and treasures of various countries plundered by the foot basin during the wars of various Asian countries during World War II. The entire museum has about 100,000 pieces, of which the Celestial Empire is at least 10,000. To be honest, he has been here for the third time. Through understanding history, he really despised the people of the foot basin. He always denies the war of aggression but ignores these cultural evidence. This contradictory and despicable nation has become the most civilized country in today's society.
What a joke!
Stephanie, not to mention a little guilty about the goal he was preparing to take action, instead he was doing justice, allowing these treasures that were robbed by robbers to escape from their despicable claws.
There was no security check or long queues. Stephanie raised her lips, smiled slightly, glanced at Harris, who was sitting on a bench not far away, and did not stop, walked directly into the museum and headed straight to the second floor.
The second floor can be said to be the Celestial Dynasty special hall, with a total of five exhibition rooms, four of which are Celestial Archaeology, and the remaining one is Celestial painting and calligraphy. It displays tens of thousands of Celestial Dynasty cultural relics, a large number of Zhou Dynasty bronzes, Song and Yuan Dynasty calligraphy, etc., and countless treasures are available.
Stephanie slowly walked to the dark red Tang Dynasty sea inkstone pattern bronze mirror listed as a "national treasure" by her foot basin. Her eyes narrowed slightly and she carefully appreciated it. This bronze mirror ranked first in the list of treasures sent by the mysterious man. Moreover, most of the treasures that must be obtained on the list are almost all of the cultural relics of the Celestial Dynasty. They had thought that the mysterious man might be a Celestial Dynasty man.
However, as soon as this idea appeared, they immediately felt ridiculous and ruled out this possibility. After all, they really don’t think that there are people in the Celestial Empire who have such great energy. From all the signs, the people hiding behind the scenes are more like some old Western families that are uncommon. Only they are so greedy, with such a wide range of power and use any means.
There was no noise and no urging of the crowds and no managers urging them. Stephanie wandered around in the garden and watched these "national treasures" snatched by foot basins, celadon wheel flower bowls, plum blossom sky eye cups, pink plum tree pattern plates, Longquan kiln porcelain bowls in the Southern Song Dynasty, flower and bird pattern carved lacquer plates in the Yuan Dynasty, dragon pattern lacquer plates in the Yuan Dynasty, and bronze ware of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
The thirteen-poster for the Yuan Dynasty Zhao Meng's 13-poster for Lanting, the pictures of Li's family in the Song Dynasty, the pictures of Li Di's hibiscus in the Southern Song Dynasty, the pictures of Li Di's red lotus in the Southern Song Dynasty, the pictures of Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the pictures of Liang Kai's "Snow Scenery and Landscape Pictures" of Liang Kai of the Southern Song Dynasty, which gave Stephanie a headache. It was not that it was difficult to get it, but that he was really worried that he would hurt these already fragile treasures at that time.
Especially one of them is an unparalleled single item, Jianyang Yaobian Tianmu Tea Bowl in the Song Dynasty. Looking at this bowl, Stephanie couldn't help but let out a slight breath of turbid air. He knew that if the crime was successful this time, it would inevitably cause a violent shock to the whole world.
Retracting his gaze, glanced at the location of the surveillance camera and the two extremely leisurely security guards who were chatting, Stephanie sighed in his heart, "If you have not succeeded in your security level, we should really die!"
Walking out of the museum, Stephanie saw Harris, who was still sitting on a bench and drinking with a bottle of drink. He walked towards the stairs and nodded to his place, then walked through the square and sat on the side of the road, waiting in the car.
"How about it?"
"Their staff are very lazy and lack responsibility." Stephanie turned to look at the museum outside the car window and said lightly.
"Haha, that's simple. No matter how advanced the security system is, as long as people don't do it, everything is garbage. Haha, we can immediately enjoy the Brazilian sunshine, the beach, and the beauty." Camora, a handsome Italian guy as the driver, smiled happily.
You should know that there are no tricks in museum security and technical prevention. Technical prevention is basically fixed routines, such as anti-intrusion alarm systems, patrol systems, access control systems, video surveillance systems, etc., which are all programs designed by technology companies one by one. The investment is not small, but I really cannot guarantee that there will be no accidents. This is because no matter how advanced the "technical defense equipment" is always "controlled by others."
On the line of defense of museum security protection, advanced security equipment and strict systems are not enough. The lack of responsibility of the staff is the biggest security loophole. Because only when security personnel who master and operate technical defense equipment according to regulations encounter flying thieves who do not play according to common sense, the prevention results can be imagined.
"Haha, if we didn't have these people's assists, how could we succeed easily!" Stephanie shook her head and laughed, but she quickly frowned and said: "It's okay to say that the porcelain is not big, but the key is that the calligraphy and paintings are long and too fragile."
"There is no way. We only have 15 minutes to take out the things and pack them up. Even if there is any damage, I think the other party can understand it." Camora didn't care whether the cultural relics would be damaged. What he cared about was whether they could easily escape after completing the task. Everyone knew that once they started to act this time, it would cause a sensation in the world. The foot basin would definitely look for them like crazy, so they would run away as soon as they completed the task. Leaving would turn into national martial law, and the foot basin at various ports might even be closed.
As for those cultural relics, they are not their own things, so please don’t worry about them!
"Hey, oil painting is more convenient. The paper they use is too thin." Stephanie sighed with a headache. There is no way, and there is only God's blessing.
As night fell, the members of the scattered courier team gathered again, having dinner and discussing, and before tomorrow night, they had to perfect the entire plan to be impeccable.
"Otave, have you got the stuff?"
"By the way, I almost forgot." Ottaff, who had just sat down and started to feast, put down his knife and fork, picked up a schoolbag from under his feet, placed it in the middle of the dining table, unzipped the zipper, and took out five pistols with silencers and a few boxes of bullets from it. "I've checked it, no problem."
Looking at the pistol on the table, Stephanie and the other three looked at each other and sighed helplessly. You must know that the foot basin control guns are very harsh. Almost no one can use guns. Even the legal society of the foot basin is not used. The pistols are completely banned in the foot basin. Of course, everything is not absolute. If you want to buy them, you will definitely find them. However, the five pistols placed in front of them are only requested yesterday. This efficiency has to make several people speechless. The other party is so powerful!
"Damn it, since they are so powerful, even if they go to the open to grab it, they can succeed. Why bother us?" Harris cursed again with gritted teeth.
"Okay, please stop complaining. Your mentality is easy to have problems. If you leak the news, I believe they will not give up." Camora, a handsome Italian guy, glanced at the complaining young American while eating pasta.
Looking at Harris who was blushed with a red face, Stephanie coughed lightly and said, "Okay, things are already like this. Everything else is nonsense. We successfully completed the task, then left here, went our separate ways, and enjoyed life with money. Everyone just pretended that nothing had happened. We just traveled in the foot basin for a few days. Harris, is the jammer ready?"
"Everything is ready, I have no problem here." Harris looked a little more comfortable with Stephanie's words, and nodded and replied.
"Okay, let's deduce tomorrow's action again."
Chapter completed!
