Full text without ads Chapter 23 Treasure Theft (I)

July 2, 10 p.m.

Tianyi stood in front of the mirror, he washed off the clothes on his face, his pale complexion and freckles were gone, and his hair was dyed back to its original black. He changed into the black shirt and black suit that he usually wears in bookstores, and put on a waterproof electronic watch.

Carrying a black travel bag on his back, a small hand-held Xiaoice box (40cm long, 30cm wide, 30cm high, with handles) and a snakeskin bag in the other, he carefully cleaned up the traces he left in the room, whistled down to the hotel lobby and checked out. He looked no different from other tourists when he checked out, he came to Paris for more than half a month, bought a lot of souvenirs and returned with a full load, and no one doubted him.

Walking alone in the drunken night of Paris, Tianyi's face still has a lazy and lazy look, and he can't see that he is going to do something big tonight.

He didn't call for a taxi, but walked to the area near the Louvre.

By the time we arrived at the planned location, the snakeskin bag was gone, and it contained everything that needed to be destroyed, laptops, cell phones, books bought, clutter from cleaning the room, etc., all of which were easy to deal with. Before throwing it away, add a large stone to the snakeskin bag and sink it to the bottom of the Seine.

In a short time, Tianyi was already walking in the sewers of the city. It is a rainy city, but there has never been a traffic jam caused by water accumulation in the rain, which shows that the drainage system is excellent.

Victor Hugo once wrote in Les Misérables: "In our time, the sewers of Paris are still a mysterious place. If you know that there is a terrible cellar beneath you, Paris will be uneasy. Perhaps because of this, we can often see Hugo's characters escaping from the sewers.

Built in the 19th century, Paris's sewers are one of the world's most famous sewers. The city's sewers are spacious, tall and built like tunnels. The walls are neat, there is no dirt on the ground, and the cleanliness is comparable to that of the streets of Paris. In it, people will not smell the expected fishy smell, only feel a faint earthy smell. It is no exaggeration to say that even if a lady walks in a clean and beautiful dress, she will not get dirty, which is no different from walking in the Louvre.

In fact, the sewers of Paris are a tourist attraction. There are very good lighting equipment in the drain, the road conditions are smooth, accessible, quiet, each sewer on both sides are pasted with many relevant pictures, indicating the path, much like the route map of the subway station, every time you walk through a "post station", there are staff on the ticket of the visitor to stamp a stamp. There are also souvenir shops lining the drains, which make up the exhibition gallery of the "Sewer Museum" in the form of objects and photographs.

It's like an underground world, and the old town of Paris itself was built with stones dug into the ground. The underground of Paris is almost hollowed out by the subway, the underground drains, the large underground shopping mall, the parking lot, the tunnels, the cellars, the various pipelines, and the abandoned mines of antiquity.

But no matter what the world is, there will always be marginal areas. Tianyi walks on the edge of no man's land, that is, the "drainage pipe part" in real consciousness.

These pipes are terrible, and there is basically everything imaginable in the filth, and the contents of Tianyi's black travel bag come in handy.

He wears a black corset with a chemical mask over his suit, and a belt with many small leather pockets attached to his waist, which he bought from a comic merchandise store, and when he bought it, the boss tried to convince Tianyi that it would be inferior to buy a belt without a full bat suit.

On the outside of this outfit, Tianyi also put on an isolation suit, which at first glance looks like an anti-virus isolation suit in a disaster movie, wrapped in it from head to toe, in fact, this isolation suit is a copycat at all, not sealed, but at least waterproof and odorproof.

This isolation suit was made by Tianyi buying materials himself, please note that when I say materials, I am referring to two raincoats and fifty shoe covers......

There are a lot of things to do, and if needed, he can be a very good tailor, give him cloth, scissors, rulers and an old foot-operated sewing machine, and he can make designer-level clothes. As for the isolation gown on his body, he did it with a needle and thread and a stapler.

Outside the isolation suit, Tianyi also wore a miner's hat on his head, which could speed up his progress in the sewers.

Knowing the access to the underground pipes, he went to the library to look up a map of the city's sewers in the twentieth century, which was based on the first excavated main lines for many years. After that, he also collected a lot of information through the Internet, and surveyed the route along the laying route of each manhole cover, and even disguised himself as an interviewer to go to the Urban Planning Bureau to investigate. This is the 3D model in the computer.

The further you go, the more difficult it becomes, this pure sewage pipe is not designed for people to walk, and in the end almost half of his body is soaked in sewage crawling, and the trouble is that he still has to carry the small portable Xiaoice box forward.

This journey was very slow, and after more than half an hour, Tianyi finally came to the calculated coordinates. He stood upright under a vertical, 1.3-meter-diameter pipe. Turned off the light on the miner's hat and threw it into the water. Mr. Huang took out a rope from the clothes inside and tied it around his waist through the handle of the portable refrigerator. Then hold the walls of the pipe on both sides with both hands and climb up the pipe in the dark until your head reaches the top.

At this moment, Tianyi is located inside the walls of the Louvre, under the lawn. This artificial turf is equipped with an automatic sprinkler system, and there is also a water drop system under the shallow soil.

Unfortunately, the drainage pipes directly below the Louvre building are not large enough to be drilled into, otherwise Tianyi would not mind invading from one of the toilets.

Next, Tianyi did a very difficult thing, in this situation of being held in mid-air, he took off the simple layer of "isolation suit" outside, and then stabilized his body with his legs and one hand, and took tools out of his belt and began to do things.

He spent a minute in the dark to completely touch the cover of the water separation layer above his head, he had checked the structure of this board in advance, and the unfortunate thing was that the manufacturer of this thing had closed down two years ago, otherwise Tianyi could have bought a piece in front of him to actually operate it. But this did not affect his dismantling work, and soon he fumbled to loosen the board.
