274 A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall

What these two men tried so hard to grab was a fake!!!

Through the masks on their faces, Chen Rui could see their ferocious expressions due to excitement.

The two of them were so immersed in each other that they obviously didn't know anything about it.

Could it be...

At this time, Chen Rui already had a bold guess in his mind.

He grabbed Karen and said, "Stop watching the show here. Let's go inside quickly."

"You can't come here in vain."

Karen didn't say much, and the two of them turned around and entered the Western painting exhibition hall inside.

Although the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has a huge storage of Asian cultural relics.

But it’s not just Asian antiques, there are also a large number of Western oil paintings here.

There are also a large number of paintings by famous Western artists here.

For example, the paintings of Rembrandt, one of the three literary masters of the Netherlands.

Of course, Rembrandt is not the only collection here, this museum has the most famous collection of Western paintings.

It's Gauguin's "Where Do We Come From? Who Are We? Where Are We Going?"!

This is the origin of the questions that future generations will ask: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing here?

As for Gauguin, many people may not have heard of it.

But this is a big shot, and his historical status in European and American oil painting circles is quite high.

Together with Cézanne and Van Gogh, they are even called the three masters of postmodernism!

And this painting of his is the treasure of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston!

Chen Rui came here for this painting this time.

When he visited the site a few days ago, despite being in a bad mood, he paid special attention to this painting.

It hangs in the European art exhibition hall in the distance.

Apart from that painting, there are only Rembrandt's paintings worthy of hanging in the same exhibition hall as him.

In fact, there are many other treasures in this museum, such as bronzes, Buddha sculptures and so on.

But for Chen Rui and Karen, these things were too big and bulky.

It's not easy to transport, so it's not suitable for them.

The most convenient to carry and hide are these oil paintings.

So the two of them went straight to this most valuable exhibition hall.

But as soon as he came in, Chen Rui raised his head and looked at the wall.

That famous book with a strange painting style is hanging on the opposite wall.

There are many characters in this painting, including a newborn child, a young man picking apples, and then an old woman.

Chen Rui didn't like the painting style, but the last time he visited the site, he also listened to the explanations of other tour guides.

It is said that this painting is a human life painted by Gauguin.

From the time of birth, to the growth of young and middle-aged people, and then to old age.

Anyway, a lot of philosophical mysteries were explained, but Chen Rui was confused.

But when he looked at the painting that day, he could see a rich red light in the painting.

This means that this painting is very valuable.

But today when he came here to look at it, he was immediately stunned.

Because the flashing red light on this painting has disappeared!

What the hell is this? Is this painting also a fake?

It must have been switched!

A flash of lightning flashed in Chen Rui's mind!

But who can swap this painting in broad daylight?

"What are you still doing in a daze? Take action quickly?"

Karen suddenly became anxious when she saw Chen Rui standing there in a daze.

He urged in a low voice, and after saying that, he walked towards the oil painting.

He took out a knife from his pocket and planned to cut the oil painting from the frame.

Chen Rui quickly stepped forward and grabbed her: "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?"

Karen asked with surprise on her face.

Chen Rui didn't say much. He pulled her away and hid in a small exhibition hall next door.

Just after the two of them hid in, two other figures broke into the exhibition hall.

It was Jasper, and Jack.

"Hey, didn't we agree before that we would only grab those painted by Long Guo?"

Jasper asked Jack in a low voice.

Jack shook his head: "We've already come, how can we just take those paintings? We have to think about ourselves."

"And I always feel that there is something wrong with Dustin. Dad, we must make more preparations."

After Jack finished speaking, he ignored Jasper and went straight to Gauguin's painting.

Jasper stood there, silent, but did not stop him.

It was obvious that he was also struggling in his heart, but when he hesitated.

Jack had already taken out his knife and cut the painting out of the frame.

It is different from our old and fragile silk paintings.

These foreign oil paintings use very different canvases and pigments, so they are naturally more resistant to painting.

"Why are you still standing there? Bring the painting tube over."

Seeing Jasper still standing there, Jack couldn't help but scolded.

Jasper then walked over and pulled out a painting tube from his back. The two of them rolled up the painting and stuffed it into the painting tube.

Then this kid didn't hold back, and quickly cut off several other Rembrandt paintings.

When he wanted to go to other exhibition halls, his father stopped him.

"No way, we don't have enough time. We have done deductions before."

"If we want to evacuate safely, we must leave now. In three minutes, the police patrol car will most likely be back."

Although Jack wanted to scan other rooms again, he was unable to do so with Jasper holding him down like this.

They could only snort unhappily, and then they turned around and left the exhibition hall.

After hearing the two people walking away, Karen and Chen Rui emerged from the small hall next door.

Looking at the empty picture frame on the wall, Karen couldn't help but pat her hands lightly with sadness.

"Damn it, it looks like this time it was all for nothing."

Chen Rui glanced in the direction of the picture frame, and then smiled.

Even through the silicone mask, Karen could still feel him smiling.

She couldn't help but be curious, turned around and asked: "You've been working so hard for nothing, do you still have the heart to laugh?"

Chen Rui stretched out his hand and scratched her nose: "Who told you that we came here in vain?"

Karen thought he was trying to get paintings from other painters here.

"Do you want to get the paintings by Rubens and Griet?"

This art museum also collects many paintings by other well-known European painters.

If you take these paintings outside, any one of them can be worth 1.8 million.

But compared with the masterpieces of Gauguin and Rembrandt, the price is far behind.

But Chen Rui laughed: "To get their paintings, we might as well go to the market and find them ourselves."

"That's what I'm talking about."

As he spoke, he had already reached the wall, reached out and took down the frame of the painting that had been cut off by Jasper and his wife.

"Are you crazy? What are you doing with this broken picture frame?"

Karen was confused by his actions, but Chen Rui winked at her.
