Chapter 1670: Blatant Provocation
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Tian and the others walked out of the Florentine police station unscathed.
From the time they entered the police station to cooperate with the investigation until they left, the time and speed were so short and fast that all the media reporters waiting at the door of the police station were so surprised that they could hardly believe their eyes.
They were accompanied by two prominent local Florentine lawyers, as well as the head of the U.S. Embassy's office in Florence and his assistants.
Of course, there are also several senior officers of the Florentine police, all with faces sinking like water, not to mention how ugly their expressions are!
Because of the presence of many media reporters, Leonardo and the Florentine cardinal did not come out together, but quietly left through the back door, and no one noticed!
At this time, at the entrance of the police station, in addition to news reporters from major media, there were many heavily armed and highly alert policemen, all of whom looked nervous, staring at the scene and the surrounding situation.
Obviously, the Florentine police were afraid that the Casa Monica family and the gypsy gangsters would retaliate and provoke another war, so they made this arrangement, just in case.
Although the security measures at the entrance of the police station are very tight, Ye Tian is not at ease, or he does not trust the Italian police at all, who knows if there are mafia scum in the police force in Florence.
What Ye Tian trusted was everything he saw with his own eyes, as well as his subordinates.
When he was about to walk out of the gate of the police station, he secretly turned on the perspective, and his eyes penetrated the bulletproof glass and walls of the doorway, and completely swept the situation in the door and the situation in the buildings opposite.
Aside from the heavily armed, high-security policemen and his own security guards, he didn't notice any other guys with guns, and there were no ambushes in the buildings opposite.
As for whether there are mafia members among the heavily armed policemen, whether there are guys who have been bribed by the Casa Monica family, it is unknown for the time being, and it is not obvious from their appearance and tattoos.
Even if there are mafia members in the police, or guys who have been bought by the mafia, Ye Tian is not worried, he has his own strategy to deal with it.
Just as they walked out of the police station gate, Cole's voice suddenly came through the invisible headphones.
"Steven, there are our guys mixed in the crowd at the door, staring at the surroundings, there are no ambushed gunmen in the buildings opposite, don't worry.
Following your instructions, the three snipers are ambushing in a few buildings in the distance, and have locked down the heavily armed police officers at the entrance of the police station, and everything is under control!"
"Okay, Cole, well done"
Ye Tian replied in a low voice, and then ended the call.
Then, with a big smile on his face, he took Betty and walked down the stairs at the entrance of the police station with the others, and greeted the surging media reporters.
Another show is about to begin, and it's a battle without gunpowder.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others had already walked down the steps and came to the media reporters who were stopped by the police outside the cordon.
Before they could gain a foothold, some media reporters couldn't wait to start asking questions loudly.
"Good afternoon, Steven, I'm a reporter for Italian television, why did you leave the Florence police station so quickly after the fierce shootout that caused a sensation all over the world?
Even if you're defending yourself and you're just cooperating with the Florentine police investigation, is that too fast? Is there any reason for that? Can you explain it to us?"
Obviously, this media reporter has a little bad intentions, or he doesn't have a good impression of the Florentine police at all, and he actually took eye medicine in public.
Hearing these words, the faces of several high-ranking Florentine police officers turned green, and the roots of their teeth itched with hatred, but they were helpless.
Ye Tian looked at the media reporter who asked the question, and then said with a smile:
"Yes, we are indeed here to cooperate with the Florentine police in their investigation, which is our responsibility, and we can also give the truth to this firefight, so that rumors will not fly.
The simple reason why we were able to complete the investigation and leave the police station so quickly was that each of us had pinhole cameras on us to film the entire process of the firefight.
The video footage captured by those pinhole cameras is enough to prove that we are the victims and the attacked, and the reason why we fired back was completely out of legitimate defense.
When we were investigated by the police, we handed over the video materials to the police, and with those indisputable evidence, it naturally didn't take much time to investigate.
Later, you can go online and see that my personal lawyer has already uploaded those videos online, and the reason why I did this is to let everyone know the truth."
"Hissββ!"
All the media reporters at the scene gasped and were secretly frightened.
Sure enough, just like the legend, Steven is extremely thoughtful, extremely thoughtful, and completely impeccable!
It sounds like you bastards are victims and legitimate defense, but the real victims are probably the fools who were killed by you bastards!
It's a deliberate murder, and you murderous bastards are ready and ready to wait for the dead fools to run into each other.
Not only did the media reporters think so, but also several senior Florentine police officials.
But when you think about it, they can't resort to words, because the facts are right in front of them, and everyone can see them, and there is no way to refute them.
After secretly sighing to himself, another media reporter asked loudly:
"Good afternoon, Steven, I'm a reporter for the Italian newspaper La Repubblica, can you tell us why this exchange of gunfire happened, how it happened, and the identities of the gunmen?
Now in Florence and in the whole of Italy, there are all kinds of rumors, some say that those gunmen are members of the mafia, some say that they are gypsies, and some say that they are your enemies."
Ye Tian looked at the female reporter who asked the question, glanced at the crowd at the scene again, and then said with a smile:
"I can tell you very clearly that the gunmen came from the largest mafia family in Italy, the Casa Monica family, and a gypsy gangster in Florence,......"
Before the words fell, the scene had been completely fried.
"Oh my God, those gunmen are from the Casa Monica family, did I hear me right?"
"I'll go! Steven this guy is really crazy, he just came to Italy, and he actually went against the biggest mafia family in Italy, and killed several people on the other side in one fell swoop, now there is a good show to watch!"
Just when many media reporters were discussing, the faces of those high-ranking Florentine police officers were as black as the bottom of a pot, not to mention how ugly they were!
At this time, they couldn't wait to rush up and block Ye Tian's mouth, and then beat him up, so as to vent the evil qi that had accumulated in their hearts!
When the voice at the scene fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately continued:
"The cause of this crossfire stems from the classical oil painting I found yesterday in Piazzale Michelangelo, by the master Botticelli, worth 80 million euros.
We got back to the hotel last night and ran into the Casa Monica family in the lobby who tried to snatch that top art piece from me and make a fortune!
But it's a pity that before that, I had already sold the painting to the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, and when I heard the result, those scum actually started to think about the 80 million euros again.
How could I agree to such a ridiculous request? The 80 million euros are my private wealth, and there is no doubt that even if the king of heaven comes, I don't want to take a penny.
The leader of the scum was named Tony, and in the course of the negotiations, he made it clear that he was from the Casa Monica family in Rome, and after the conversation broke up, he led the people out of the hotel.
Today, when we walked to Calchaioli Road and were about to visit the Cathedral of Our Lady of Flority, those scum actually launched an attack on the street, which caused this fierce firefight.
Later, I learned from the police that it was not only the scum of the Casa Monica family who were involved in the attack, but also two gunmen from the Gypsy gang, who were apparently in a group.
Italy is a beautiful country, especially Florence, which exudes endless charm and is simply fascinating, but the scum of the Casa Monica family tarnishes this beauty"
Hearing his words, the faces of all the Italians at the scene couldn't help but turn red, and they were a little embarrassed.
At the same time, they were secretly frightened and even very excited.
Steven, this bastard is really bold! This is a clear attempt to create public opinion and force the Italian government and police to come forward to deal with the Casa Monica family and give an explanation to the public!
These bastards must also be ready, planning to fight the Casa Monica family to the end, fight to the death, it's really ruthless!
After a pause, another media reporter asked loudly:
"Steven, what are you going to do next, do you leave Florence and return to the United States, or do you continue to travel in Florence and Italy?"
Ye Tian looked at the reporter who asked the question, and then said with a smile:
"As I said earlier, Italy is a beautiful country and I love the scenery, the historical buildings, and the antique art.
We will continue our tour around Italy, and here I can tell you that we will visit the Basilica of Santa Maria del Fiore later.
After our trip to Florence, we will visit other cities in Italy, including Rome, the home of the Casa Monica family."
"What? You're going to Rome, you can't be crazy, right?"
"Isn't this a blatant provocation, how can the Casa Monica family, which has always been rampant and domineering, swallow this breath, it's crazy!"
The scene was directly boiling, and incredible exclamations sounded wildly.
Looking at the high-level members of the Florence police, everyone's faces are black and purple, and it is difficult to see the extreme, as if they have died of their own father!
