Chapter 367: Looting
One of the characteristics of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, which is what distinguishes him from other museums, is that he basically does not have a storage room, because he is big enough, and everything is displayed as exhibits, so it seems that he has a lot of things.
In fact, those old museums have more things, such as the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum, the British Museum, etc., there are a lot of things, but the exhibition area is fixed, so many times, their treasures can only be stacked in the storage room.
The anti-theft door is an electronic fingerprint lock, but this is an electronic door for employees, and there are a lot of people who can open this door, after all, it receives tens of thousands of tourists every day, and it is not that others can't come here, as long as they are employees here, they can open this door.
Muyang and Kyle have been here for the past few days, and it is not without gains, Kyle collected the fingerprints of three employees, and made a fingerprint set and handed it to Muyang, Muyang took out the fingerprints prepared in advance and put them on his fingers, and then pressed them on the scanner.
"Click, click."
The indicator light on the security door flashed twice and then turned on automatically.
Mu Yang dodged in, and then quietly closed the door. At this time, the lights in the exhibition hall are dim, only the lights in the corridor are on, and there are basically only a few lights on in the other exhibition halls, and many places are dark.
This area is the Egyptian art area, Muyang melted his body into the darkness, unfolded his light work and slided, and quickly moved towards the Chinese art area. Muyang has his own plans, of course he has to target Chinese antiques first, it doesn't matter if he sells them for money or not, but he doesn't want these things to stay here.
Suddenly, there was footsteps ahead. The sound of leather shoes hitting the ground in this silent and empty museum. It looks so clear.
Muyang dodged to the shadow area behind a display case and held his breath. The footsteps are gradual. Without stopping, keep going.
Muyang didn't stay, waited for the security guard to be a little farther away, quickly went to the Chinese art area, and finally found it, Muyang lay outside the display case and glanced inside at the long scroll, then took out the laser cutter and began to cut it on the side of the display case.
Yan Liben's "Emperor Diagram of the Past Dynasties" of the Tang Dynasty is 5.31 meters long. With a width of 51 cm, it is a long scroll with the images of thirteen emperors painted on it, which is a rare work of art.
The laser in Muyang's hand has a small circular hole in the side, as long as his hand can reach in, no matter how big he is, Muyang can also get his hand, this is the beauty of having space.
The laser cutter is very easy to use, a minute and a half. Mu Yang opened a round hole, Mu Yang reached in, and the ancient painting disappeared without a trace.
Success, the next goal.
That's it. Muyang began his own search in the Chinese art exhibition hall, and Song Huizong's paintings were collected. Zhang Hong's painting. Also collected, Zheng Banqiao's painting. We must not let go of the paintings of many great painters of the Qing Dynasty. If you take it all away, if there is still Qi Baishi, you naturally can't stay.
In the end, Mu Yang checked the space and let him steal more than 60 paintings, during which the security guards passed by here several times, but because Mu Yang was able to find their traces in advance, and his movements were very small, those security guards did not find anything abnormal at all.
Fortunately, in some showcases, there are many ancient paintings at one time, otherwise it will take more time to cut the showcases one by one.
During this period, Muyang took the time to check his task, but what made him a little disappointed was that his task was not completed, it was still 1/5, it seems that these Chinese antiques he stole are not the treasures of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.
Well, the next target, the European oil painting exhibition area.
"Water Lilies" is very beautiful, naturally you can't let it go, "The Postman" is a little ugly, but the oil paint is very bright. There is even a painting by Leonardo da Vinci, which is very precious. Edward? Dari? The Daughter of Boyt", the painting is not small, but it is difficult to help Muyang.
Manet, Degas, Watto, Renoir, Paul Cézanne, Van Gogh, as long as Muyang thinks it is a good work, they are all swept away and all enter their own space.
Muyang felt that it should be almost, and he felt that he could stop and go back, but when he checked the system again, he found that his mission had not been completed.
Muyang scratched his head, what else was he missing.
Do you want to take Thomas yourself? Sully's masterpiece "Washington Crossing the Delaware River" is a huge painting with a height of 3.7 meters and a width of 6.5 meters. Or let yourself take away the priestess of Bacchus and the statue of the infant Phaeon.
No matter, anyway, let's experiment one by one, Muyang ran to the sculpture area again, because this is relatively close to the sculpture area, since this is the case, let's try the priestess and baby Faon sculpture of Bacchus first.
A bronze statue, a woman is naked holding a child in one hand, and the other hand is holding grapes to tease the child, which is very expressive, and this statue has been imitated in many other large museums, even in the fountain pool outside the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, there is also an imitation of this statue.
Muyang put the statue weighing one and a half tons into the space, and then hurriedly checked the system, haha, it finally became 2/5, and the system task this time was finally completed. Muyang is going to go around the treasure area, and if he can get a few precious pieces of jewelry, he can sell them for some money.
Jensen Carter, a 40-year-old night security guard at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, had been in the military for 13 years.
Night duty is boring, although there are many people on duty in the museum, but they can't get together to chat, at most they just meet and say hello when they are on patrol.
Jensen was very fond of art, and his only hobby on duty was to look at the works of his favorite masters when he was fine, and after 13 years, he had already seen them countless times, but he also developed a habit of glancing at them when he was fine.
Just when he passed through the oil painting area, his eyes swept behind the display case, and suddenly found that there were some changes here today, he began to think that he was dazzled, could it be that the collection was adjusted during the day today, Jensen walked forward suspiciously and was about to take a closer look, but when he approached, his face changed greatly, this is theft.
"Director, there is an anomaly in the European art exhibition area, please come and have a look." Jensen shouted over the intercom. (To be continued.) )
