On the fourth floor of an apartment building deep in the side street, the tactical team led by Ye Tian leaned against the corridor wall, maintained a battle formation, and stopped at the door of a dilapidated apartment.

As soon as everyone stood firm, Ye Tian immediately stretched out his hand and pointed to the mottled and old door covered with graffiti in front of him, and said in a low voice:

"Evan, you're alive, open the door to this apartment, stay safe!

"Okay, Steven, we'll be safe!"

Evan nodded in response, and then walked up with another New York police officer and began calling the door.

Walker, armed with a police shield, immediately stepped forward, ready to provide cover for Evan and them.

The others, including Ye Tian, were lightly on the trigger of the assault rifle, and the muzzle of the gun was on the ground, all on high alert, ready to fight at any time!

This is already the third apartment building they searched, about 100 meters away from the south exit of the small street, with a total of five floors and about 30 apartments, it is an old red brick building with a history of hundreds of years!

Like the other two apartment buildings searched before, this one looks decent on the outside and has a sense of history, but on the inside it is quite shabby, like a slum!

However, none of this has anything to do with Ye Tian and them, they just want to find those two Chicago scum as soon as possible, and then send those two scum to hell!

As for whether the people in these apartment buildings are living in dire straits, they don't care at all!

"Bang Bang Bang"

Evan first knocked on the burglar door a few times, and then hid on the side of the door and shouted:

"We are New York cops, please open the door and be checked"

After a moment's pause, a slightly nervous male voice came from the apartment.

"New York cops? How do I know if you're real or fake? Please show me your ID."

"Okay, sir, we're from the Manhattan Police Department, here's my ID"

As he spoke, Evan took out his ID and showed it in front of the security door cat.

After confirming that it was correct, the white man in his fifties in the apartment opened the door and stood on the side of the door, his eyes slightly worried.

As soon as the security door opened, Ye Tian and the others maintained a battle formation, lined up in a row and walked quickly into this old apartment, and began to search each room.

As the overseer, Evan and two other New York police officers remained at the door and did not participate in the search, Evan stood inside the door and the other two guys stood in the hallway outside the door, staring at the situation in the hallway.

After settling his mind a little, the white homeowner immediately asked curiously:

"Mr. Officer, you're looking for those two Chicago idiots, right? I saw the wanted warrants for those two guys on TV, and I just got a police notice to stay at home and lock the door!"

"That's right, we're really looking for those two scumbags, they're hiding nearby, maybe in your apartment building!"

Evan nodded slightly, giving an affirmative answer.

While the two were talking, Ye Tian and the others had searched the two bedrooms and the kitchen, and all returned to the living room.

Those two Chicago scum aren't here and can leave.

After returning to the living room and standing still, Ye Tian was about to speak, but his eyes seemed to be unintentionally attracted by an oil painting hanging in the living room.

"Hey, there's a landscape oil painting here, it looks pretty good, it's a bit of a taste."

As he spoke, Ye Tian took two steps forward and began to admire the landscape oil painting hanging on the wall of the living room.

This is a realistic landscape oil painting, about one meter five wide, almost one meter two high, relatively large in size, and the frame is in the American country style!

The picture shows a riverscape with several women and children wearing parasols and long skirts on the nearby riverbank, and several people are playing on the grass on the riverbank.

In the middle of the scene, a large river with rippling blue waves meanders from a distance, the water is sparkling and crystal clear, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the tall trees on both sides.

In the distance, on the banks of a white stone bridge, a woman in a long red dress, also with a parasol, stood on the river.

The oil painting shows a lush forest at the end of the forest, with rolling mountains at the end, and in the middle of the forest, a few red roofs can be faintly seen.

The brushstrokes of the whole oil painting are quite delicate, the painting method is smart and natural, it is a typical realist style, which is vaguely revealing a bit of romantic atmosphere, full of poetic feelings!

Unfortunately, due to the improper preservation of this oil painting, the oil paint of the picture is slightly dry, and there are even cracks in some places, and there are also some cracks on the rustic-style wooden frame.

In Ye Tian's eyes, this landscape oil painting radiates a dazzling red light, which is extremely beautiful!

Judging from the intensity of the red glow emitted by the painting, he could accurately determine that it was an oil painting from the early sixties of the nineteenth century.

In addition, the surface of this landscape oil painting is also entwined with seventeen or eighteen layers of charming halos, revealing its artistic value and high market value!

Needless to say, this is a landscape oil painting by a famous 19th-century artist, and it is of great artistic value.

While contemplating this landscape oil painting, Ye Tian also secretly turned on the perspective and looked at the landscape oil painting again.

Before entering the apartment and searching it, he saw the landscape through perspective and the situation in the apartment.

He had known that the two Chicago scum weren't in the apartment, but he asked Evan to open the door in order to get a closer look at the landscape.

Under the perspective, all the details and secrets of this landscape oil painting are clearly presented in Ye Tian's eyes, and nothing is missing!

In the blink of an eye, this beautiful landscape oil painting was seen through by him, and it was determined that it was the work of that famous artist!

Then he withdrew his gaze and ended the perspective.

"Good evening, sir, take the liberty of interrupting, introduce yourself, I'm Steven, nice to meet you"

Ye Tian turned to look at the white homeowner in his fifties, introduced himself with a smile, and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, showing a very friendly attitude.

"Good evening, Steven, my name is Robert, I am the owner of this apartment, I am also very happy to meet you, to be honest, you are the first super rich person I can shake hands with, I am honored!"

Robert shook Ye Tian's hand vigorously, and also introduced himself, and at the same time was a little curious.

Why did this ruthless and famous guy in front of him shake hands with him and get acquainted with him? Is it because of that landscape oil painting?

After a few polite greetings, Ye Tian went straight to the point and asked with a smile:

"Robert, I would like to ask, where did this landscape oil painting come from? What do you know about this oil painting? To tell you the truth, I like this landscape oil painting very much, and I want to take it into my pocket.

Because of the special situation today, we still have to hunt down those two Chicago scumbags, and we don't have time to waste, so I won't beat around the bush, and to tell you the truth, this is a very good work of art!

If you're interested in selling, I'll give you a pretty good price for you to move out of Hell's Kitchen and live somewhere else, and I'm sure your new life will be very pleasant!

If you don't want to sell it, that's okay, I'm very honored to see this landscape oil painting with my own eyes today, and I don't dare to ask for too much, what do you think?"

Hearing Ye Tian's words, Robert was directly stupid, and froze in place in a daze, his eyes full of incredulity and madness!

The eyes of the rest of the people at the scene were full of envy, and they kept looking at Robert, who looked sluggish, and kept looking at the landscape oil painting in the living room.

For Ye Tian's words, no one at the scene had any doubts.

Since Steven said that the landscape painting was a very good work of art, he couldn't be wrong, when did he look at it?
