The reason why Chen Jiaju is confident is that in addition to Zhang Pin supporting him with a batch of advanced equipment and Yang Jianhua's detailed intelligence support, more importantly, he is also very capable.
No, I'm standing in a castle-style villa on the first floor that's nearly five meters high.
Chen Jiaju did not go to the second floor through the stairs, but went from the opposite direction. First he stepped on the table, then quickly stretched out his hands to grab the lamp hanging on the wall, and then with a hard pull, his body was hung on the wall.
.
Then he stepped on the wall with both feet, and then repeated the same trick, reaching out to grab a decoration on the top. After two consecutive times, Chen Jiaju's feet were firmly planted on the corridor on the second floor.
This time, because he came in to steal something, Chen Jiaju unusually memorized the layout of the villa.
So after he made sure that there was no one on the second floor, he quickly walked through the corridor and came to the empty and tall study room.
But at this time, Chen Jiaju's good luck also ran out.
Just as he entered the study, before he could take the next step, footsteps came from the corridor at the door.
"Clean the study quickly, Baron Martin is about to bring guests in."
When the footsteps sounded, the staff's voices also came from the door.
Upon hearing the other party's words, Chen Jiaju couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat.
Because according to Yang Jianhua's intelligence information, the animal heads and other shady collections collected by Baron Martin were hidden in the study.
However, although these study rooms are spacious, apart from various collections of books, there are only some decorations or calligraphy and paintings for the same collection. Naturally, it is inconvenient to hide in such an open place.
Now that there are people outside the door, Chen Jiaju is naturally in a dilemma.
Seeing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Chen Jiaju ignored other thoughts and stepped directly on the table in the study room, then accelerated in three or two steps, and soon rushed to the wall.
Thanks to the rich collection of books in the study, and the fact that the floor height of the villa is much higher than that of ordinary houses.
Therefore, a wooden ladder is installed in the middle of the walls on both sides of the study.
The ladder is obviously used to facilitate the removal of books from higher levels.
After Chen Jiaju climbed up the ladder, he immediately lay down on the ladder, hoping to temporarily avoid the attention of the staff.
Just when Chen Jiaju lay down, the door of the study room was pushed open, and then three or four staff members dressed as maids walked in.
They moved very quickly and began to clean and wipe the study floor, tables and chairs.
"Hey, why is there a footprint on this table?"
At this moment, a staff member responsible for cleaning the desk discovered something unusual.
On the table that Chen Jiaju stepped on just now, there was a dust rubbing, a very clear footprint.
Hearing the words of the staff below, Chen Jiaju's hands, which were surrounded by a face towel, instantly broke out in a large amount of cold sweat. Then he quickly looked at his gloved hands and soles of his feet.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiaju was immediately shocked.
Because I don’t know when, his brand new night clothes were stained with a lot of dust.
"Oops, it must have rubbed against the wall when I climbed up to the second floor."
Chen Jiaju immediately knew where the problem lay.
This castle-shaped villa is very large, although Baron Martin hired a lot of staff to take care of the sanitation of the villa.
However, due to the height of the villa, the surrounding walls are very high, and it is difficult to clean them easily with ordinary tools.
In addition, these walls are not usually touched by anyone, so they are often cleaned only during general cleaning.
As a result, it is inevitable that some dust will accumulate in normal times.
Chen Jiaju was unlucky this time. No one had cleaned the wall for a while, so he was unfortunately hit.
Thinking of this, Chen Jiaju's heart beat faster. Just when he was considering whether to run away directly or something else, the words of another staff member below made him feel lucky.
"Hurry up and clean up the dust. If the Baron knows that there is so much dust in the villa, we will lose our jobs. Everyone, please check carefully to make sure there are no traces of dust left behind."
It turns out that Baron Martin has very high requirements for his staff on weekdays.
So now when these people see dust appearing in the room, their first reaction is not to think about the cause of the dust, but to immediately remove the traces.
"There are them on the ground too!"
"This table has it too!"
“It’s also on the walls”
"Oops, there won't be one in the middle attic."
Several staff members soon discovered dust from the door to the walls, and some even worried that it was also in the attic.
Then a staff member went around to the stairs and prepared to go up the stairs to the middle ladder.
Chen Jiaju's heart almost jumped out of his throat at this time. He even half stood up and was about to jump down and escape.
"The Baron is here with his guests, get out quickly."
But just when he was halfway up, a voice that sounded like the sound of nature to Chen Jiaju sounded in his ears.
Then several staff members who were cleaning in the study room quickly left, including of course the staff member who was about to climb up the middle ladder to check if there was any dust.
However, when a few people left and closed the study door, Chen Jiaju did not breathe a sigh of relief.
Because several staff members just made it clear that Baron Martin will bring guests to the study soon.
Chen Jiaju is lying here right now. In fact, if someone observes carefully, he can be easily exposed.
So he quickly stood up and observed the entire study room.
He first ruled out the location under the study because there was no hiding place except for a few desks and chairs.
So he could only focus on the wall of the study room.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiaju's eyes suddenly lit up because he saw a very large oil painting not far from him.
The content above is none other than the Last Supper.
So Chen Jiaju first patted the dust on his body, then took out two adsorption tools, tied them firmly to himself, then held the tools with both hands, pressed them directly against the wall, and then approached the oil painting.
After approaching the oil painting, he quickly pressed his body close to the guy on the left with his head probe, and then clasped his hands tightly on the wall with the help of adsorption tools.
It has to be said that due to the size of the oil painting, Chen Jiaju's whole person just overlaps with the person next to him.
In addition, his location is above the entrance to the study, making it difficult for ordinary people to spot him.
Click——
Just when Chen Jiaju had just hung himself on the wall, the study door was opened again.
Then Baron Martin came in with a man.
"Ms. Zhang, what I want you to study is a painting I recently acquired."
Baron Martin walked in with a woman, and then while introducing his study, he pointed to a painting on the wall and said something.
Seeing Baron Martin and the woman next to him going from picture to picture, Chen Jiaju's heart beat faster and faster, and the cold sweat on his forehead and back didn't stop.
Because according to the way the other person is acting, we will soon see his painting.
And with his current disguise, as long as the other party looks over, he will definitely be able to spot Chen Jiaju.
It was precisely because he was too nervous about this situation that Chen Jiaju's physical exertion increased. As a result, his body began to tremble even when he was hanging on the wall.
And because he was sweating all the time, even though the tights he wore were sweat-absorbent, as the sweat increased, Chen Jiaju's gloved hands began to slip.
At this moment, Chen Jiaju only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and it was a certainty that he would be discovered.
He was not afraid of being discovered, but felt that it was a pity that he was discovered now.
After all, he hasn't even gotten the beast capital yet, so if he is really going to be discovered, he will naturally have no choice but to run away.
As a result, the things he had promised before Zhang Pin and Yang Jianhua that he could handle had turned into bragging, and Zhang Pin would still have to help wipe his ass.
Thinking of this, Chen Jiaju couldn't help but look at the center of the painting of the Last Supper.
The guy standing in the middle is Jehovah, who is called God.
Chen Jiaju has never believed in the so-called gods and ghosts, but this time, he began to hope that there would really be gods or gods in the world to help him survive this disaster.
Just when Chen Jiaju became seriously ill and sought medical treatment, hope actually appeared.
"Baron Martin, is that a sunflower? Can I take it off and have a look? It doesn't seem to be authentic."
The woman following Baron Martin suddenly pointed to a painting hanging next to him.
"What, it's impossible. I spent 50 million US dollars to buy this. It's definitely an authentic work by Leonardo da Vinci."
After hearing Miss Yang's words, Baron Martin suddenly became frightened and angry.
No wonder he had such a big reaction.
After all, this is a sunflower, and he paid 50 million US dollars.
Even though he is a nobleman and owns assets worth hundreds of millions, most of them are real estate. He originally spent $50 million to buy Sunflowers with the intention of reselling them for profit.
If it is now confirmed that this painting is a fake, his 50 million US dollars will be wasted, and even his face will be completely lost.
The most fundamental reason why Baron Martin can own such a large villa is of course because of the legacy of his ancestors.
But similarly, relying on the legacy of his ancestors, Baron Martin's current identity is that of an archaeologist.
It is precisely because of this identity that Baron Martin is usually the authoritative person in the appraisal of cultural relics.
Relying on this identity, he also works part-time in cultural relic appraisal and trading.
However, if the news is revealed now that, as an authoritative person in appraising cultural relics, he bought a fake, then the authority that Baron Martin has maintained for most of his life will soon disappear.
Because of this, it is understandable that Baron Martin is so nervous.
"Let's take it out and observe it."
Zhang Yao saw that Baron Martin was so nervous, and she became a little nervous too.
As a scientific researcher, she certainly cannot think as much as Baron Martin thinks. The reason why she just said this is just from a professional perspective.
But now that Baron Martin is so nervous, it actually makes her a little uncertain.
The two hurriedly took down the oil painting and left the study.
"Huhu——"
The next second the two left, Chen Jiaju let out a long breath, then let go of his hands and let himself hang on the wall. If the two of them had gone out a little later, Chen Jiaju might not have been able to hold on.
Originally, with his physical strength, he wouldn't be so weak.
But the problem was that he was a little overwhelmed by the previous situation. He was on the verge of being discovered several times, which made him very nervous.
In this way, the pressure will naturally increase, and the consumption will also skyrocket, causing Chen Jiaju to eventually become exhausted.
When Chen Jiaju let go, he actually made a little move, but he couldn't care less about it at the moment.
After taking a few long breaths, he grabbed the straps again and climbed up the wall.
After Chen Jiaju rearranged himself, he climbed the stairs in the middle of the study.
What happened next became simpler.
Baron Martin's study is so large that it actually has a darkroom installed.
Chen Jiaju easily cracked the secret of the darkroom and found the two animal heads hidden inside.
In fact, in addition to the animal heads, there are many other shady cultural relics in the darkroom.
But Chen Jiaju is an honest person after all. He came here just to get back the animal head, so he didn't touch other cultural relics.
"I got the things and I'm ready to come out now. There won't be any problems outside."
After getting the things, Chen Jiaju was very happy. Although there were some twists and turns in this operation, at least the goal was achieved.
So Chen Jiaju took the initiative to turn on the headset and contacted Yang Jianhua.
"I'll wait for you on the road."
When Yang Jianhua heard what Chen Jiaju said, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But as soon as Chen Jiaju got the animal head, he suddenly felt a little carried away. While talking to Yang Jianhua on the phone, he walked out of the study directly.
"Who are you?"
Baron Martin looked in shock at Chen Jiaju, who was wearing tights and carrying two bags on his back, walking out of his study.
Chen Jiaju froze on the spot, and then saw Baron Martin and Zhang Yao sitting on the table at the door of the study, observing the oil paintings.
"Oops, I was discovered!"
Chen Jiaju only had time to remind Yang Jianhua, and then he walked directly to the stairs. Then he did not take the stairs, but sat on the guardrail next to the stairs and slid down directly.
"Come quickly! There is a thief!"
Baron Martin shouted when he saw Chen Jiaju running away.
"Miss Zhang, please go back first, I have other things to do here!"
Then his reaction was different from that of ordinary people when they encounter a thief. He was not so panicked. On the contrary, he rolled his eyes a few times, rolled up the oil painting on the table that was basically confirmed to be a fake, and handed it over directly.
Zhang Yao's hands.
"You can also take this oil painting back for me and ask your teacher to help me identify it."
